E. J. Herman, who organized the Ohio Good Roads Federation, a body instrumental in establishing a practical road system in that State after all other efTorts had failed, has been mak ing a preliminary survey of conditions here. I have conferred with scores of rep resentative business ami professloal men, and wltli leaders In the various trades and occupations In Harrisburg with a view to ascertaining .lust what Is the state* of popular feeling on the good roads question," said Mr. Herman to-day, "and I am impressed with the unanimity of sentiment In favor of the Legislature first taking care of the great public works of the State before deciding how much can be spared for other objects in proportion to their worth." If this sentiment can be crystallzed through organization, so that the Legislature may know exactly where the great body of the people stand, there will be no question about ade quate appropriations for the building and maintenance of both the State highways and the country roads.' Mr. Hernan will shortly start on a detailed tour of the State, under the auspices of the Pennsylvania Good Roads Association. FUGS OPCAPITOL IT IE MIST [Continued from First Page] James Adams Beaver, then an officer of the militia of the State, promptly volunteered and entered the military service of the United States as First Lieutenant in the Second Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers. He was subsequently commissioner Lieuten ant Colonel of the Firty-fifth Regi ment Pennsylvania olunteers, which commission he later resigned to ac cept the Colonecy of the One Hundred and Forty-eighth Regiment, in which capacity he served until mustered out by reason of wounds received in bat tle. "His military career was marked by the bravery and devotion to duty that glorify the fame and the worth of the American citizen soldier, and gives to the martial history of his native State one of its brightest pages. He always enjoyed the unlimited confidence of his superior officers, to whom he was ever a tower of strength, and was the courageous and competent leader whom men deemed it an honor to follow. "In peace he gave freely of his time and efforts to build up the National Guard of the State, a work In which his signal ability and conspicuous fit ness produced results in keeping with his brilliant record as a soldier and in which service he remained until as Governor he became the Com mander-in-Chief. "His services as Governor of the Commonwealth, from 1887 to 1891. were characterized by courage, zeai and ability. His official acts were al ways prompted by pure motives and strong convictions. He was appointed Judge of the Su perior Court in 1890, in which office he was continued by subsequent elec tions until his death. As a member of the bench he was upright, honest and fearless. "His funeral will take place at Bellefonte on Tuesday, February 3, at 10 o'clock a. m. "In recognition of his services to this Commonwealth as soldier, Gov ernor and jurist. I recommend that the flags upon the public buildings be displayed at half staff and that the several departments within executive control be closed that day."

MATERNITY UOSPITKL IS BIDLY NEEDED fContinued from First Page] how to use the milk when It Is fur- ! Dished them. Mid wives' Practice Dangerous "Another danger to the mothers j and children is the practice of mid- i wives and old women who make a | business of nursing in maternity cases. ! These people will be licensed by the ! State, but at present the harm done : by the midwives is considerable. "As it is now with no place to go, , and funds in the family treasury j short, the mother fears to hire a , physician and calls in the midwife, who has absolutely no training for the delicate case. If a free maternity hospital is established here or only a small fee were churged these mothers would know that they could go to a place where they could be taken care of at small expense. The need for the maternity hospital is urgent." Miss Mary W. Miller, superinten dent of the Visiting Nurses' Associa tion who meets with deplorable con ditions daily in her work said a ma ternity hospital can come none too soon if the lives of the cities' babies and mothers are to be saved. Harrlsburg Is Far Behind "This city is far behind many oth ers, in fact, it is the only one of its size I know of that has no provision for taking care of the mothers of the poor," she said. "A baby died last week in a North Seventh street home, a few days nfter it was born because of the deplorable conditions which met its coming into the world. The family is not to blame, for they can't help it. These poor people are anxious to have some place to go. Men tell me they have sent their wives to Lebanon or Philadel phia and there they were taken care of in maternity hospitals. It is a shame that this city has no place in which healthy babies can be born. "In many of these homes, I have visited a child is born into a home where there are no clothes, no food, no fire and terrible sanitary condi tions. "Council should be urged to do something to establish a hospital or the Ilarrisburg hospital would do well to add a maternity ward to its present equipment. It is needed so badly. If the councilmen could only see what we see every day, they wouldn't wait long to appropriate the money."
