DE. LEE TO KEEP THE WORK GOING
The ClemlEZ of the Streets Mitluj Excellent
Vtosnsa.
The State Board of Health met at Johns
town yesterday and commended the work
done by Dr. Lee and his assist
ants, and directed its continnance during
the summer. "Washington street has been
cleaned np. The greatest excitement of the
Jay iras caused by the arrest of Corporal
Jones bv a civil officer.
tFEOK X STAFF CORRESPONDENT."
Johnstown, July 10. The annual
meeting of the State Board of Health was
held here to-day. After re-electing Dr.
David Engelman, of Easton, as President,
the board devoted the rest of the session to
considering the sanitary condition of the
Conemaugh Valley. Drs. Lee and Graff,
who have been the agents of the board, sub
mitted a detailed report of the wort that has
been done here under their direction. In
this report the physicians explained how
they had divided the valley into districts
and placed a medical inspector and a fore
man in charge of each district. It told how
they had established posts for the dis
tribution of disinfectants, and how all
garbage and putrifying and drying vege
table and animal matter had been removed.
It was only by the hardest kind of work
that they had kept the valley in a healthful
condition. The work of cleaning cellars,
the report says, has been most difficult, but
it is now well under way. Those that are
still in a bad sanitary condition will in a
few days be thoroughly disinfected. People
are advised to whitewash their cellars, and
they carry out tfce instructions of the board
to the letter. The medical inspectors have
completed a sanitary medical survey which
shows the condition between Nineveh and
South Pork of every family as to over
crowding, sickness and sanitary condition
of cellars. The greatest number of era
ploves the board has had at any one time has
been 285 men. The force now at wore num
bers 153. The report was approved by the
board and the two physicians highly com
mended for their work.
THE WOKK TO GO OK.
A committee, consisting of President
Eugelman, Secretary Lee, Dr. Howard, Dr.
Murphy and Dr. J. P. Edwards, was ap
pointed to keep a vigilant watch over the
sanitary condition of the Conemaugh and
Juniata valleys and the Lockhaven and
"NVilliamsport districts. Drs. Lee and Graff
were authorized to remain here for another
month at least and, if necessary, they were
directed to stay until fall. "When the busi
ness of the meeting had been completed Dr.
Lee took the members of the board on a trip
through the valley in carriages. They were
out all the afternoon. Upon their return
Dr. Edwards, of Philadelphia, said to your
correspondent: "We have learned from our
trip this afternoon that all the rumors of
sickness alleged to be due to the flood that
have been sent out of here have been false.
There is not a single case of sickness that
can be attributed to the flood. This
we consider as remarkable, and it
speaks volumes for the work of
Dr. Lee and the Bed Cross Society. Dr.
Lee's whole system of work is perfectly
satisfactory to the board, and all his ar
rangements for the continuance of the work
are perfect. That there has not been an
epidemic here is due to the excellent work
ot Dr. Lee and the Bed Cross Society. The
condition of the valley, however, is still
such that it will require constant watching.
If the people will co-operate with the Board
of Health there need be no fear of an epi
demic this summer. "We must have the
help of the people, however. They must
exercise great personal care and cleanliness
both of their persons and premises."
PEAISE FOB THE BED CROSS.
Dr. Edwards said the board had inspected
the hospital of the Bed Cross Society, and
was verv much pleased with its manage
ment. He and other members of the board
said the Bed Cross Society could not be
given too much credit for its work here.
Dr. Edwards said the members had visited
the cemeteries and fonnd thdt all bodies had
been decently buried. The graves of the
unknown dead were in just as good condi
tion as those of the persons who had been
identified. He said there was not the
slightest foundation for the statements that
bodies had been unearthed by dogs and
wolves.
Dr. Lee took the members on another trip
up the valley this evening. They returned
inl time to have a consultation with Chief
Engineer Hamilton. The members all left
lor home on the 10:30 train.

JUSTICE IJf JOHNSTOWN.
A Corporal of the Fourteenth Arretted by
n Tin Tag Officer and Fined.
IFEOM A STAFF COnRESPONDEXT.
Johnstown, July 10. Trouble has
again broken out between the "tin tag"
police and the members of the Fourteenth
BegimenL The latter have borne the in
sults heaped upon them by the tough-looking
"bobbies" until they have become al
most unbearable. If the militiamen get
away without being mixed up in a good
sized riot with the policemen it will be due
to the vigilance of their officers. This after
noon two of the Pittsburg boys were catch
ing ball within the lines o'f their camp,
and 15 feet from the edge of the
nearest street. One of the bob
bles, clothed with the power of the
law and a superabundance of commissary
clothes ordered them to quit The Corpora!
of Company I made a reply to the effect that
they were on their own ground and doing no
harm. Without another word the alleged
officer struck the man over the head with his
short baseball bat. A large crowd gathered,
and had it not been tot the coolness of the
corporal the officer wouldhave been mobbed.
The policeman then arrested him, and at
the hearing he was fined fG 15. Colonel
Perchment, commander of the regiment, ap
peared as the corporal's attorney, but was
promptly told that attorneys were not rec
ognised in that court. This is a sample of
the justice the National Guard is getting for
its efficient service in protecting the prop
erty of the citizens of this place.
The corporai arrested was named Jones.
A -TROUBLESOME QUESTION.
Who Will Far Tor Damage to tho MIIItIUo
Public School Home.
If FECIAL TELEGRAM TO TBI DISFATCn. J
Johnstown, July 10. The members of
the First ward, Hillrille, school board
called upon Engineer Hamilton this after
noon and asked him what the State intended
to do in regard to the school building. The
latter has been used as a morgue for the past
three weeks and is in a wrecked con
dition. All the chairs and -desks
were removed, the windows smashed and
the refuse from the bodies washed into the
basement. The building was also damaged
by the heavy charges of dynamite exploded
on the drift. It will take about (3,500 to
put it in proper shape for occupancy on Sep
tember 1. Captain Hamilton will begin to
clean it out at once, but who will pay for
the damage sustained by the building is ft
question that will cause trouble.
PBOGBESS OF W0BK.
The Transformntlon of Washington Street,
Where Mnny Bodies Were
Found A Kick, and the
Cnniie for It.
IgrrCIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.l
Johnstown, July 10. Even after one
day's absence from the town one can notice
the rapid change the borough is undergoing.
If a person is here from day to day he can
not notice much change going on, but let
him go away for a day or two, and upon his
return he can see what a wonderful transfor
mation is taking place. This morning the
laft of thecreat mass of debris which was
piled in front of the Cambria Iron Com
pany's general offices was carted away,
and Washington street is now clear from
one end to the other.. This is the street
where a great many bodies were found un
derneath the dirt upon which people had
been walking for weeks. Formerly people
had to walk down a small hill to the door of
the "Western Union Telegraph office. To
day they had to ascend half a dozen steps to
get there. This is but a sample of what is
being done. The chief engineer, Captain
Hamilton, stated to-day that he was now do
ing the work with two men and a cart
that it had formerly required four men with
an ordinary wagon to accomplish. The
work has been so systematized that they are
carrving away a cart load of dirt in the
same time that it took to remove a wheel
barrow load.
An effort was made by a number of
kickers who have been fired out of the
Cambria City Commissary to hold a meet
ing to-nighc to devise ways and means for
the purpose of putting the citizens of the
boroueh in charge of the supply station. A
call was issued this morning for the meet
ing to be held in the Council chamber at 7
o'clock and the names of prominent peo
ple forged on the notices. Only one man
responded to the call, and after waiting half
an hour for others to put in an appearance
he departed much disgusted.
A rumor'was circulated about the town
that the officers in charge of the commissary
were not treating the people right in the
matter ot giving supplies. The real cause
of the trouble, as stated'by some of the
people who refused to sign their names to
the call and would not go near the'meeting,
was that eight of the residents who
had been employed in the department
had been discharged for stealing.
Some of them were employes of the
Cambria Iron Comnanv and refnsed
to go to work in the mill, preferring an easy
position in the commissary. When they
came to work in the morning they threw off
meir oau anu coais. .toiler Horuag a suon
time it is charged they would pick up a new
hat and coat, and, putting them on, would
make an excuse to go out, and would then
take the new clothes home and come back
for another supply. When discharged they
threatened to take charge of the department
by force, but were scared off.
1I0XEI FOR LETTfiK CARRIERS.
Omaha Postal Bustlers Send the First Con
tribution to Johnstown Brethren.
ISPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TOE DISFATCII.I
Johnstown, July 10. The letter car
riers of Johnstown, to-day received their
first contribution of money sent them by
any of their fellow carriers among the
thousands of them in the country. A letter
was received from the carriers in Omaha,
Neb., with $50 enclosed, for which the boys
are very thankful. There are ten carriers
here, and they lost their uniforms and per
sonal property. Some of them suffered the
loss of members ot their families, and were
left in a very bad condition. Each man is
going to write a sketch of his personal ex
perience in the flood while delivering mail
matter, and will mail it to his Omaha
brethren as a memento.
One hundred and ninety dollars as the
snm to be charged for each of the small
Oklahomas, and $250 for each of the larger
ones. Host people who have accepted them
took a large one and a small one. The cost
price is to be deducted from the sum to be
given each person, and as a reputable con
tractor has offered to supply four-roomed
houses for $250, people consider the Okla
homas rather high, and ore now refusing
them.
The expected distribution of 10 a head
has not taken place, and the postoffice is
constantly besieged by poor people expect
ine money.
Forty vagrants were arrested by police
and military to-day and put to work.
Jacob Goenner, of Cambria City, the
leading brewer of the place, died to-day.
He was in the washed out district, but, on
recount of the heavy machinery, his build
ings were not carried off, being the only
ones standing in the vicinity. He had re
sumed business several weeks ago, and was
only sick a lew hours.
One Dny Wltb No Bodies Fonnd.
Johnstown, July 10. For the first time
since the flood no bodies have been found in
24 hours. This is attributed to the fact that
all the work was done on the streets where
the sand was only about a foot deep.

This preparation has no equal as a
dressing. It keeps the scalp clean, cool,
and healthy, and preserves the color,
fullness, and beauty otlie hair.

gray; but alter using two or three
bottles of Ayer's Hair Vigor my; hair
grew thick and glossy and the original
color was restored." Melvin Aldrich,
Canaan Centre, N. H.
" Some time ago I lost all my hair in
consequence of measles. After due
waiting, no new growth appeared. I
then used Ayer's Hair Vigor and my
hair grew
Thick and Strong.
It has apparently come to stay. The
Vigor is evidently a great aid to nature."
J. B. Williams, Floresville, Texas.
"I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for
the past four or five years and find it a
most satisfactory dressing for the hair.
It is all I could desire, being harmless,
causing the hair to retain its natural
color, and requiring but a small quantity
to render the hair easy to arrange."
Mrs. M. A. Bailey, 9 Charles street,
Haverhill, Mass.
" I have been using Ayer's Hair Vigor
for several years, and believe that it has

SEW ADVERTIriEMKNTS
WISDOM'S LOSSES!
MARCH, April, May and June have been the "banner" months
with us in our business history. Our large store has been
taxed for room to meet the trade and do business as we like
to do it comfortably.
The usual dull months of July and August are here. We're
going to turn these into busy ones. Beginning with to-morrow,
two gold, silver or paper dollars will do the work of three dollars
in the purchase of reliable goods. "We have, as a matter of course,
despite our enormous business, actually more goods in our store
now than any other dealers of this city have had at any time
during the season and our objective point is to sell what we have
during July and August The plan laid out has been called
"Wisdom's losses. ' You are to take our merchandise aDd we your
money. You wouldn't exchange unless we made it an object
That we'll do by cutting off dollars.
You'll get bargains impossible to obtain elsewhere and we'll
make dollars by the use of your money a. fair exchange you'll
say of course
WAKEN TO THE FACT, OH YE PEOPLE
Bargains Impossible of Duplication
-ARE OBTAINABLE IN- 0
EVERT DEPARTMENT OF OUR STORE
There's no time in the p ast season when our sales have not
exceeded the combined sales of any three of the other .large
clothing houses in Pittsburg, notwithstanding we have put our
truthful statements against exaggerated advertising. We expect
this week a flood qf eager buyers for the simple reason that we're
bound to keep busy even, if we lose money. The goods we have
must be sold at some price; they can't linger around here; not in
our store. This is the reason why we make such remarkable
offers; give such phenomenal bargains. Our prices for Men's
Suits will range from $3 50 to S25, the way stations between these
two points being frequent enough to accommodate all kinds of
people. Altho' we have not, as in mid-season, 30, 40 or 50 of a
kind yet we have enough to suit and fit everybody. You've only
got to make up your mind as to the amount you wish to spend to
fit you out in proper summer attire to get something to suit you.
Bear in mind we've got first mortgage on quality and we strike
the key note of popularity by giving the highest satisfaction in
fit and style.

Always Send Money
it Saves Time
Many a poor woman, misled by some high-sounding advertise
ments of unscrupulous dealers, pays the penalty of an injudicious
purchase by constantly toiling after her hard day's work in order
to keep in repair clothing bought for her boy at clothing stores
other than ours. We protect all in whatever they buy from us ly
guaranteeing absolute satisfaction in wear, no matter what price
is paid us. Be advised by us all parents. Come and see how
little cash it takes to buy, this week, clothing for your boys relia
ble in every way. You with plenty or you with meager filled
purses, now's your chance to buy where your money will do almost
double duty. Not a single article offered at a low price as a mis
"le.ader," but our entire stock is offered at a liberal reduction in
prices. Not only are the goods we offer lower in price than can
be found elsewhere, but you can depend on the thorough reliabil
ity of everything we offer. If we were to utilize a whole page of
this paper in speaking of our Boys' and Children's clothing we
couldn't say more.
