Natural RroiIed Fish.

There is volcanic peak in the
South American Andes that serves
broiled fish for breakfast. Not in
frequently they are also on the bill OF
fare for luncheon and dinner as well
This peak is called the Tunghurahus
and is regarded as special instrument
of the gods by Indians living in the
vicinity.
They believe that when an eruption
takes place, running their crops and
perhaps sweeping away their homes
the mystic spirit Of the Tungurahua
provides the broiled fish 80 that she
will not want. But the scientific ex-
PLANTATION is somewhat different
Far underneath the mouth of the
volcano is subterranean lake. When
the volcano begins to spout flame and
lava the suction draws up tons OF
water carrying along the fish, which
are cooked by the inferno they pass
thru. After an eruption the Indians
find thousands of fish if the ashes
and lava from the volcano, and many
of these are just crisp enough for a
dainty breakfast.

J. B. Hutchinson, Jr., Has
Interesting Railroad Life;
Superintendent at Tyrone

Referring to the recent promotion
of j. b. Hutchinson, Jr., to superin-
tendent of the Tyrone division of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, the Railway
Gazette in its issue of last week gives
the following interesting sketch:
j. B. Hutchinson was born on March
3, 1876, at Bristol, Pa, and was edu-
Gated in Princeton University. While
attending college he worked for the
Pennsylvania Railroad during his
summer vacations, and on January l.,
1898, was appointed rodman. In
April, 1899, he was transferred to the
office of the principal assistant en-
gineer at Altoona, the following No
vember he was made assistant super
visor on the West Penn division, and
in. 1900 he was transferred to the
Pittsburgh division.
He was promoted to supervisor on
the West Penn division in 1901, and
in 1905 was transferred to the Middle
division in the same capacity. IN
January. 1910, he was appointed di-
vision engineer of the West Jersey
& Seashore Railroad and three years
later was transferred to the Will
Transport and Susquehanna divisions
of the Pennsylvania. He was ap-
pointed division engineer of the Mo-
nongahela division on February IL,
1914, and in September, 1916, was
transferred to the Pittsburgh division
in the same capacity. In April, 1917.
he was promoted to assistant super
intendent of the Pittsburgh division,
and on October 25 was made superin-
tendent of the Tyrone division, as
above noted.

with lines extending down and the
current doing the rest, the party
essayed to cross to the mainland.
But the sudden drop in temperature
had not been counted on and when
the Uhwieldly craft got out in mid
channel things began to happen.
Here the ice was freezing right be-
lore their eyes and great floes banged
up against the side where they took
lodging. Slower and slower the cur
rent advanced the ferry until, sur
rounded by ice it was stopped COM
pletely
without any protection. for the
ferry is not rooted, the whole party
struggled to pull the heavy craft
further but only found that the ice
piling up would soon break the ropes
and set them adrift down the river
which was tearing along like a mill
race. There was but one recourse,
yell for help, and this the party did
so Justify and so long that a motorist
heard them and telephoned Com
missioner e. u. Gross who sent a
hurry call for Grant Forrer. He
was lucky to get the help of Mr..
Dintaman and the two of them
finally reached the ferry in a row
boat, not without great danger for
the huge ice blocks threatened to
crush their light boat any moment.

Fire in Hazleton Factory
Results in 100000 Loss
BY Associated Press

Hazleton, Pa, Dec. 10.-Shortly
before work was started at the shirt
factory of j. Gerhardt & Company
to-day fire broke out in one section
of the plant and spread so rapidly
that the entire building was burned.
The estimated loss was 100000. The
other section of the mill on the op-
posite side of the street was saved.
The company has been making shirts
for the War Department and big
onsignment of freshly arrived ma
terial had been placed in the de-
stroyed building yesterday. The man
ufacturing of the shirts is done in
the section that escaped the flames.
The cause of the fire is not known.
Five minutes before the blaze was
discovered the night watchman had
completed his rounds and reported
everything all right
A block of four houses was burn
ed with a loss of about $4,000. Sew
eral months ago a fire of mysterious
origin occurred in the part of the
Gerhardt factory where army shirts
are being turned out, but only slight
damage resulted.
According to those on the scene
early, a series of explosions were
heard, leading to the suspicion that
the fire was the work of incendiaries.

day afternoon at 2 o'clock and ad-
iourned court until that time. after
several motions were made and q

common pleas court were present to-
day for duty. Several did not answer
when called while others were eX-
cused. In requesting the court to
excuse one of the jurors, counsel eX-
planned that he was needed in a store
where he is employed
"A juror serves in his country S
duty in times of peace the same as a
soldier in time of war; he is drafted
for service as juror the same as
another man is selected for military
service. We can't permit a member
of the bar to make excuses for a
man to be relieved from this duty
when there Is no legal ground" was
Judge Kunkel's terse remark. He de-
cided, however. to excuse the juror
provided he was not called for the
first case.
Jurors not appearing or excused
were p. Isaac Deimler. Lower Swa-
tart township; Adam Etzweiler. jack
son township; John *. Henry, Royal

Asks to Have Election
Protest Discharged

Because only one of the petitioners
contesting the councilmanic election
in Lykens had signed the bond which
must be filed as surety for costs of
the proceedings, Jackson & Jackson
and Paul A. Kunkel, counsel for A.
f. Hanna, whose election is contest
ed, to-day asked the county court to
dispose of the case by discharging it.
According to the petition filed to-day,
it is contended the law requires a
bond to be filed within ten days after
the election is contested, and that the
bond must be signed by at least five
of the original petitioners who con-
test the election. Several other alleg-
ed deficiencies in the papers contest
ing the election were cited by Han
mas attorneys. The court took the
petition asking to have the proceed
ings discharged but reserved deci-
sion.
