Shields the other evening, he referred to the frequent accidents In mln:s and said he had often wonderod why the men had not organized it "Flist Aid to the Injured" society. Few nccl dents occur In any mines where the Injured would" not have their suffer alleviated If the willing hands who rush to assist had a practical knowl edge of the vital parts of the human system and the ability to apply spllntn to a broken arm or leg. or the appli cation of a tourucqult that would slop a loss of blood which has not In frequently resulted In loss of life. It Is such knowledge as this that the membeis of "First Aid" societies ato taught and which has enabled them to render prompt treatment that has not only nllevlated suffering, but at times been the means of saving life. Dr. Shields said if the miners of the Delaware and Hudson colliery deslied to take up the formation of such an organization, he would volunteer hid services in Imparting tho necessary Instruction to the men. lie Is of the opinion the organization should con sist of nt least twenty inniler,i, which would give five men to each of the four sections of thn colliery. The doctor's suggestion Is both humane and guneious, and it is thought either their local union or tho Keg Fund so ciety will interest themselves In" the affair and bring about tho organiza tion. If this Is done there l no doubt the company would willingly furnish the few appliances necessary for llr.st aid. Tlv funeral nf Willie Lester, the thitteen year old son of Thomas Les ter, who died on Friday last, took place yesterday afternoon. Set vices were held In St. James Episcopal church, at which the rector. Rev. C. E. Fessendcn officiated. In the course of the service the rector spoke on the lesson to be drawn from the sad occasion, the uncertainty of human life and the need while living this pro batlonary life to prepare ourselves for the life to come. His remarks left a deep Impression upon his hearers. At the conclusion of the service, the re mains were Interred In the borough cemetery. Among the floral gifts were a beautiful cross and, wreath. The pall-bearers were: Eddie Powers. James Donahue, Robeit Jones, George Reeves, John McHale and Willie Sey mour. DUNMORE DOINGS. Collapse of Old Fire House at Spencer's Mine Bod and Gun Club Organized. The collapse of the old fire house at Spencer's mine In the section of the borough known ns Sport Hill has start ed many rumors.
