WANTS SINGLE MEN ON BORDER Overworked Mail Clerk Would Limit Number of Sweethearts of Soldier Boys P. S.—From what I observe by the papers, you folks in Pennsyl vania are preparing to send .10,000 more men down here. Dan, for the love of Mike, tell them to pick out the single men who have no relatives, and if they MUST have sweethearts, let the limit be OXE. Don't under any circumstances let theru become possessed of any more fountain pens. That little postscript tacked onto a letter to Daniel Barr. of the local Post Office, from hid chum, M. J. Preston, president of Branch 4 77, United Na tional Association of Post Office Clerks, in El Paso, Texas, deals with another side of the unpleasantness with Mex ico—as an overworked mall clerk finds it. In addition to the regular mail to the city of 70,000 the post office has to handle the mall for 30,000 troops. The letter was written under date of July 14, some time before all the Pennsylvania troops had reached the Border. At tho time he was trying to get the mail for the Seventh (Penn sylvania) Division ready for delivery Troop trains at the rate of four per day unload their thousands of men, according to Mr. Preston. El Paso however, is pretty well accustomed to the military scenes. "The boys are arriving here in good shape," he writes, "and they are fast getting ac customed to tho ways and the climate They could not have found a more disagreeable or more healthy place to put them. Hot days, cold nights, cactus, sand, thorns, mesquit sage brush, sand fleas, rattlesnakes, horn toads—they're all here with similar nice little things that go with our West Texas country. "Nothing doing so far as Mexioo is concerned. We've seen so much scrap ping and killing, or rather so much of it has been aoing on along the Bor der, that we are used to It. You could not land a bet of ten to one that there will be a war. We've had a pretty fair round of entertainment here for a year or more. What with Pancho Villas raids close around town, the local Mex icans and soldiers pulling off fights in the streets, and the occasional tiffs between the guardsmen and the regu lars. we manage to keep amused. And when all this mess gets mixed up with a few cow punchers and some boot©— it's a real sw«et place." . HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH MOUNT UNION HAS MODEL VILLAGE Built by Refractories Company For Employes; Harrisburg Man Interested R. P. L. Davis, of Harrisburg, is president of the Mount Union Refrac tories Company, scientific manufactur ers of bricks, who operate! a big plant at Mount Union In the heart of the Juniata Valley. But that's not all. Mr. Davis and his associates are inter ested in proper bousing and living con ditions for the employes of the com pany, and John Nolen, a famous Bos ton landscape designer, is on the Job. This new housing experiment is to be known as the "Kistler Village." Mr. Nolan, in the making of the plana, was compelled to conform to oertaln requirements which affected the design. These requirements might be given as follows: The property Is to b« occupied mainly by worklngmen with a low wage. _ The houses will be small. The lots will be small. Permanent sxlstlng buildings on the property will be retained, namely, the brick farmhouse, the stone springhouse and the barn. The river embankment will >e used as a park. Provisions to bo made for a recre ation field of about four acres, central ly located and level as possible. Sites are to be provided for a school, two churches and a center for stores. The approach to the property will be over the Juntata river, using the old Mount Union bridge from Mount Union. The architecture of the village, includ ing the design of the workingmen's homes, is the work of Mann & Mac- Nellie, architects, who have done so much elsewhere with this type of work ingmen's development. The stores are an example of archi tectural beauty and unity; with one and a fifth acres set aside for business use, I providing about 600 feet of store front ages. Assuming 200 feet per 1,000, the population of Kistler in its present limits, 600 feet will provide for expan sion when Kistler trebles its popu lation. The Community Hall is the old barn remodeled and furnishes a place for theatricals, banquets, moving pic tures and other social or club activities of the community. The Community Hall is in an oval-shaped village green bordered by main roads. The green contains one and a half acres and per mits raeervatlons for the sites of two additional public buildings. The station, Community Hall, store center and such buildings erected later at the intersections at the village entrance form a civic center. Six house designs are used, three designs of single-family detached type and three designs of single-family semidetached type. Each family has six rooms and bath and piazzas. The Mount Union Refractories Com pany has a good plant in which to work. Kistler Industrial Village is a good place for the worker to spend the remainder of his davs plaving and resting. He pays a rental of' $lO a month for his house and he and his family derive the benefits of good hous ing in a community with a school, two i churches, parks, play and amusement j facilities close at hand. Another chap ter is added thereby to industrial effi ciency and employes' welfare, and all the while Kistler Industrial Village prospers and grows with a population happy and contented. Scientist Says He Has Perfect Underground Phone Special to the Ttltgraph San Francisco, Cal., July 18. Dr. H. B. Barringer Cox announced here that he had perfected a subterranean wireless telephone and that, incident ally, he had discovered a new law of physics, namely, that electrical energy can be transmitted over a single con ductor.

July 18.—War's revival of shipbuilding as an American industry is emphasized in a Bureau of Navigation statement to-day showing that the country's shipyards had under construction or contract on Julv l 385 steel merchant vessels of 1.225,784 gross tons. High ocean freight rates proved the stimulus that quadrupled , construction within a year. Great Britain, although hampered by the drain of war and a big naval construction program, still leads the world in building merchantmen. Her shipyards have under actual construc tion now 423 steel merchant ships of 1,423,335 tonnage and would have more but for the fact that private yards are engaged in building war vessels. The entire world in 1915 launched 743 merchant ships of 1,201,638 tonnage. Of these 84, of 177.460 tonnage, were launched in the United States. MRS. B. F. GAR MAN DIES Mechanicsburg, Pa., July 18.

The appeal, which has been taken by the city of Reading from a decision of Referee Houck, of the second district, sets forth that the compensation act is unconstitutional, in that it deprives munclpalities of the right to an election of trial by Jury, guaranteed by the constitution. The case arose over an Injury to Daniel J. Smith February 4. 1916, while acting as a patrolman for the city of Reading. He slipped and fell on the sidewalk, and a lesion of the heart led to gangrene. After an oper ation he died on May 21. Referee Houck awarded compensation of $3,- 098.35 to the decedent's wife and chil dren. From this decision the city ap pealed on the ground that such gov ernmental agencies as municipalities were entitled to trial by Jury, i Th« d«ciaion In the first agricultural JULY 18, 1916. case brought before the referees of the Philadelphia district was made public yesterday at Philadelphia. The claim petition of John Sobik, Manayunk, was dismissed by Referee Scott on the ground that the act expressly excludes agricultural workers. Sobik, while re pairing: a on the farm of George Allen, of King of Prussia, suffered a permanent injury of an eye on April 18. The dynajnite caps with which he was blasting stone threw a chip into the muscles of his eye. For the last six years he has been doing general work on the farm. This caused Ref eree Scott to class him as an agri cultural worker. Referee "W. W. Campion, of the Wil liamsport district, arrived in Philadel phia yesterday to tako up the cases of Referee Scott. The latter is resting at I the Shore after an attack of appendi citis. In speaking of the act, Mr. Champion said that in his opinion the weakest part of the law was that deal ing with accidents involving the loss of a part of a hand. The act classed the loss of an entire hand as a perma nent injury, but for anything less the Injured person receives compensation only for the period he is disabled. WILL APPEAL TO RULER Washington, July 18. Personal letters probably will be sent, by Presi dent Wilson to the King of England, the President of France, the Emperor of Germany and the Emperor of Rus sia, urging them to allow food to be sent from the United States to the starving people of Poland.
