Pulmotor Saved Life.

The first use of the Lambertville
fire patrols pulmotor Friday saved
the life Of Arthur Darolson, color
ed man employed by the New Jersey
Northern Gas Company, who was
overcome by gas in a trench on North
Union street. He was working on
a new installation when the acct
dent happened, and it was due to
the efforts of Percy Skillman, of the
electric light line force, who happen
ed to be nearby, that Darolson was
rescued from his perilouz position.
A crowd had collected about the
open trench, but all were afraid to
enter it until Skillman jumped down
and brought the unconscious man to
the surface. DR.. F. w. Larson,
who happened to be in the vicinity,
was called. and securing an auto he
made quick trip to the Union Fire
house to secure the pulmotor, which
he made prompt and effective use of
bringing the man back to conscious
ness in short time.
Although the pulmotor has been
here more than a year, this is its
first use, but every physician and
each member of the fire patrol has
key to the fire house, so it can
readily be secured when needed.

Applications for ls2~e ci thcse lands were to be received at the general land office at Washington until Il. end of June.

PAINTING VAS TOO REALISTIC

DALEY, Mjch July 3.-Thc remark able genius of Joshua Tripe, the village sign painter may result in a suit for damages being brought against the village.
 Tripe a few days ago completed mail course in sign painting, and to show his skill painted board fence on the side of barn standing along the main street. Ii looked so natural that several farmers have skinned their knuckles trying to hitch their teams to if, and even birds have attempted to light on it, slipping down the sides of the barn to the ground and flying away in disgust.
 The climax came, however, when Trpes bulldog chased a stranger down the street, who, in trying to get away, attempted to jump the supposed fence and nearly knocked his brains out

MONEY FOR INTERIOR ROADS

"H J &ommcrs, looa, superintendent of the Alaska road commission. has received a wire from ( loneI w r. Richardson which states that the board of road commissioners has allotted S20O.O00 out If the recent ap- propriation for work cn the trails of In torior Alaska, says the Fairbanks Citl@cn. "Nf this sum- approximately Sl3e30 Ws,l be spent on the sNty-~cyen miles ct traI from Fairbanks to Richardson, The troll from Ruby to Long City will also be com rletei and repairs m&de. Two thou~ani dollars i$ to be spent on the trall between Fairbanks end Tauana. One th0Hsand Goi- lars will b. spent on the roads in the !tan- part district At Eagle there will he an cE- renGiuue of $l5G0, anJ S3,0G3 at Cir l.. The Iditarcd roads will get S2,G3o while S5,000 wilt be spent on new roads in tAr kantishra country From Tanana to A"I tag >3,OG0 will be spent by the government and although no allotment has yet been made. it i> understood that the road com mission will Use several thousand dollars ot the new anoropriatign in repairs on each of the Olnes Brooks and the Tananahoy- ul,uk trails"
 1. will be noted that the amount men toned as being set aside for Isjirarod roads is $2.OOO In a telegram lately received by Commissioner Geraghty from the road com mission it was stated that @l,900 had been appropriated for this district; while check already received by Mr Geraghty to cover the cost of road work calls for the sum of S1,S0O No explanation accompanied the check.
 It is interesting to note the insignificant sum set aside for roads in the Iditarod dis trict in comparison with districts in and around the Fairbanks district. Iditarod re ceives third less than Circle and less than half as much as the kantishna. The sum of $45,0OO which is to be spent on the Fair banks Richardson trail and the amount to be expended between Ruby and Long the figures for which are not given here, make that Sl,SOO look like thirty cents.

We trust that General Funston will
meet with good success in driving all tn,
Sissy" newspaper correspondents from
the American camps on the Rio Grand'
river. We also trust that he will have
equal success in banishing the lyinl
newspaper correspondents who persist
entity tell things incorrectly or who, when
hard up for real news, take to taking
stories about alleged conditions which
exist only in their Imagination. The lat
ter are not only a disgrace to their pro-
fession but they AREA real menace to
the good intentions of the United States
in its conduct of the troop
activities on the international boundary.
The lying correspondents ought to be set
to work at hard manual labor and to be
kept there until they shall have gained a
change of attitude, until they shall have
acquired a sense OF responsibility toward
their fellow men. We commend that
method Of procedure to General Funston
ii such course Of action is possible.

Carranza has agreed to the United
States plan of conference on the dis
putes between the United States and the
de facto government of Mexico. That be-
ing the case, the United States should
make haste to pin him down to that po-
sition By another "a hours he may
have changed his position entirely. so
thoroughly unstable is he, much like his
own government. However, it Is dis
tnctly encouraging that he has been in
duced to agree to plan of mediation OF
difficulties, or at least an attempt to
agree to plans. There is no certainty
whatever that the disputants will come
to an amicable arrangement, but the at
tempt to reach an agreement is far pref
cradle to putting the matter out to ar
bitration. From this time on we must
expect long drawn out haggling over
the situation and the terms Of the pro-
