SOUTH SIDE NEWS.
Board o! Trade Old Not Meet for the
Same Old Reason Ao Arablaa
Cut on toe Head.
Not enough to constitute a quorum
were present at last night's meeting of
the board of trade, and for that very
good reason no business was done.
President M. P. Judge feels that the
warm weather had all to do with keep
ing a large slsed number of men away,
who have recently signified a willing
ness to Join the board. There will be
no meeting now until the second Friday
of September.
It seems strange that there should
be so much Indifference shown among
the enterprising business men of this
side .as to seem to care very little
whether the board of trade lives or dies.
An untold amount of good has been ac
complished In the Industrial advance
ment of the South Side, and the same
possibilities are and will be available
for a live energetic organization. There
ought to be enough of local pride In the
active citizens and business men to
preclude the necessity of having the
board begging for membership and un
able to muster a bare quorum.
EPIDEMIC OF DYENTERY.
An epidemic of dysentery Is preva
lent throughout the South Side, and the
doctors are kept busy attending to calls
at all hours of the day and night. Dr.
A. J. Kolb, of Cedar avenue, stated
that the cause of the sickness In his
experience has been the lark of sanita
tion. Advocates of a sewer might use
this as an argument, but the sewer Is
conceded to be a necessity and Is not
In need of a champion. What It needs
is some energetic person to push It
through, by keeping at the councils
until the work Is done. The advice of
physicians is to be careful about diet
and drink only filtered water.
SHORTER PARAGRAPHS.
Dr. J. A. Manlcy, of Plttston avenue.
Is confined to his room with a severe
cold.
Mr. and Mrs. S. S. Spruks are in
Philadelphia today. They will visit At
lantic City and remain away a week
longer. s
1'ndertaker G. A. filler has purchas
ed a new hearse from the factory of
George L. Brttnnell, of New Bedford,
Muss., paying therefor $1,800. There
will be nothing to surpass It in Scran
ton. An Arabian peddler was struck on the
head with a stone yesterday afternoon
on Plttston avenue near Brook street,
and Dr. J. J. Walsh had to put two
stitches In the cut. The stone was
thrown from a crowd of boys congre
gated at that corner, and there was
absolutely no provocation on the part
of the Injured man.
PROVIDENCE.
George Mabey, or the Bristol House,
has entirely recovered from the effects
of his recent Illness.
