KUTZ MEDICINE COMPANY 1325 Derry St., Harrisburg. | MONDAY^EVENING, HIGH SPEED CAUSE OF MANY MISHAPS Number of Accidents Reported to Start Authorities Show Remarkable Jump High speed in production and the employment of unsKilled men in the demand for workers aro blamed for a considerable part in the increased number of fatal accidents reported by the State Department of Labor and Industry for the first six months of this year. It is also believed that un der the present system of reporting casualties for the Workmen's Compen sation Board that more accidents are being heard of. In the first six months of this year 1136 persons were killed in Keystone State industries against a total of but 1203 for the whole of 1915, while the aggregate number of accidents, fatal, serious and slight, for the six months is given as 121,180 against 61,540 for the whole of last year. The monthly average of injuries was 20,197 and of fatalities 189. Figures show that March had the highest number of accidents, 26,971 of which 239 were fatal, February be ing next with 222 fatalities of 24,475 accidents. June showed 19,939 acci dents, 182 being fatal. Commissioner of Labor and In dustry, through its subdivision, is menting upon the accidents called for formation of safety committees and education of men to take care of themselves as well as in principles of safety first. Dr. Jackson said: "Two factors can reduce the acci dent toll fifty to seevnty-flve per cent. Those factors are carefulness and adequate safeguards. Every employe should exercise the greatest care. Every dangerous machine should be properly safeguarded and every safe guard, Installed on a machine, should always be kept in place. "The Department of Labor and In dustry, through Ita sub-divisions, is actively engaged in efforts to reduce the enormous waste of life and health through industrial mishaps. The Bureau of Inspection has its corps of inspectors in all sections of Pennsyl vania Insisting that all machinery be made safe. Members of the Industrial Board are working, throughout the State, promoting the safety idea among employes and employers. "One member of the board is work ing exclusively among labor unions, urging the organization of safety com mittees and another member is point ing out, to employers, the economic and humanitarian benents of safety committees in every shop. "An Industrial Accident Prevention Conference, attended by the heads of big corporations, representing $5,000,- 000,000 of capital, and labor leaders of more than a million workmen, was held in Harrisburg in March. At that conference, safety problems were thoroughly expounded. "The Department of Labor and In dustry is disseminating safety bulle tins and similar publications in the aim to reduce this accident toll which is a tremendous waste of the vital resources of this industrial Common wealth. The Monthly Bulletin, and similar publications, may be obtained by application to the Department at Harrisburg." The record of the accidents reported from January 1 to July 1, 1916, as compiled by the Department of Labor and Industry is as follows: Dally Month Fatal. Total.

She ran to the child and found the youngster teasing a three-foot rat tlesnake, which was apparently but little annoyed by the child. Snatching th 6 child from the ground, Mrs. Johnson secured a club and succeeded In killing the snake, which had eight rattles. The child was carefully examined to see If the snake had lacerated him with Its fangs, but no marks were found. The child had been playing with the snake about ten minutes and had hold of Its tall, shaking the rattles, at one time. The child also crawled over the snake. Mrs. Johnson avers.

NEW RULE FRAMED IN COMPENSATION Costs to Re Controlled Just Like the Rusiness of the State's Courts The Pennsylvania State Workmen's Compensation Board, which has been revising certain of its rules of prac tice following establishment of pro cedure, has ruled that costs are not to be included in an award, a detailed statement of costs certified by affi davit is filed and a copy served upon the adverse party. Right of filing ex ceptions to such bills of costs is granted. In addition to fixing this rule, which will govern hereafter in the cases aris ing, the Board has held that either a referee or th board may place the costs upon the unsuccessful party un less special circumstances Justify other disposition. It Is also provided that costs may be divided. , These rulings follow half a year's experience in practice by the Board and will determine numerous Ques tions which have arisen lately. Where a claimant falls to appear at a hearing set by a referee of which he or his counsel of record has re ceived timely notice and does not file with the referee before or at the hear ing a legal excuse for his nonappear ance, the referee shall dismiss the petition without prejudice to the right of the claimant to file a second peti tion at any time within the period of limitation fixed by Section 315. If a second petition is filed, it will not be assigned to any referee until the claimant has satisfied the Board that he has paid the costs incurred in the first proceedings as taxed by the referee. If a defendant shall fall to ap pear at a hearing set by a referee, of which such defendant or his insurance carrier or counsel of record has had timely notice, the referee shall pro ceed with the hearing. ..

But did you at the Colonial ever stop to think , . that there must have been a very good reason for such a mighty batter as Casey to strike out. De Wolf Hopper, the Triangle Com pany s long comedian, is appearing in a screen play that was taken from the famous poem that has been recited so many times, and in the play it shows for the first time just whv this Won derful batter struck out in the ninth inning. Casey is the baseball hero of Mudville, and there comes a time when the baseball showdown series is begun between Mudville and Frogtown, the adjoining village. With two men out in the ninth Inning and the bases full, the mighty Casey comes to the bat, and to the horror of the Mudville fans he strikes out.

MOON'S SHADOWS ON THE BORDER Company D Watches Eclipse on Far Shores of Rio Grande Special to the Telegraph Camp Stewart, Near El Paso, on the Border, July 17.—Sunday passed very quietly for the members of Company D j and the ijest part of the day was spent in rest by some members and sight seeing by others. Over half the com pany took the chance of visiting El Paso and the international bridge and viewing the Rio Grande and Juarez. Some of the mmebers brought back to camp souvenirs from the Mexican vendors, including paper money and five-cent pieces and large straw hats turned up all around about eight inches on the brim. This Mexican money is selling at about 200 pesos, or dollars, for 50 cents in American money. These bills ara practically worthless and were only bought as souvenirs to be sent to the folks back home in dear old Pennsylvania. Some Snakes About six members of Company D, together with members from other companies in the Eighth Infantry, made another attempt to reach the top of Mount Franklin. One by one they dropped out until only Privates Zim merman. Whick, Stoll and Simpson were left to continue the Journey. ! When within about 100 feet of the top ! thev had to return on account of their ; watre having- al! been used. On their way home Private Zimmerman killed 1 his second rattlesnake, which had five I rattles and a button, and PrivateGlntzer ) killed a bull snake measuring Ave feet | in length. On their return Private Zlm-1 onorvan found a l&rgq red Mexican I blanket, which might have been dropped by one of the Mexicans when Villa made his first raid in this dis trict. They also passed the skeletons j of three horses, which probably had fallen over a high cliff along one of the mountain peaks. Till the Sand Grew Cold The Harrisburg boys experienced their first sandstorm Sunday after noon. The sky was filled with blow ing sand and the wind was strong enough to pick up a tent and carry it along with It. Every Harrlsburger fastened his tent and got In the shel ter until the storm had passed. Sunday evening the men attended a short but very plain and impressive talk by our chaplain, the Rev. H. N. Bassler, of Harrisburg. Company D received its third and last shot or inoculation against typhoid fever and there were some pretty sore j arms Monday morning. Except for a little weakness in the muscles of some of the men, the Inoculation went through without any trouble, and Tues day morning every man will be able to carry a rifle. In Camp Monday morning opened up with regular camp routine and the men from Harrisburg had their first drill on the sands of the Border. Owing to the soreness of some of the men's arms, the drill was without the rifle, and the newer men art rapidly learn ing the foot movements and position of the soldier with the older men. Sunday evening a thunderstorm passed near our camp with a little sprinkling of rain and this made it very pleasant for the men to drill. The Harrlßburger rises at 5 o'clock in the morning, answers reveille roll call at 5.30, eats breakfast at 6 o'clock, fall in for drill at 6.50 and drills until 9 or 10 o'clock. He 1» then dismissed until 12 o'clock noon for mess. At this time the much-lookod-for mall Is > distributed to the eager guardsmen. ; After mess he fall In at 1.30 In the mess tent for a lecture of one or two | hours' duration by one of the com j missioned officers. The Schedule ' At 6,16 hfi falls fog rags* JULY 24, 1916. and receives his mail, if any, and at 5.50 falls in for retreat roll call. After that he is through until taps is brown, which is 11 o'clock. Thus a guards man on the Border does not have to work so very hard after all. A very important thing, and one that affects Company D very much, was the forming of a regimental ex change. This exchange is a general store, selling to the man all the things he wishes to buy from a needle to a bottle of soda water. Each man of each company is furnished with a book of tickets valued at $2. This book contains ten 10-cent coupons and twenty 5-cent coupons and must be presented to the clerk on purchase of anything from the store. The books are given out to the men and the money taken from their camp pay. Men with families are restricted to a certain number so that they are not allowed to spend all their camp pay at the store. The store is run by men from the companies and at the end of each month the profits are divided equally among each company. Thus the money that the men spend at this store will come back in their company fund by way of profit and will enable the company tc have a little better meal than the regular army allowance and also buy such luxuries as butter and eggs and maybe a rice pudding now and then. The men seem very happy that they have the store and they almost put the store out of busi ness the first day by buying out the whole stock. Tf there was no such store, the men would spend their money with the various peddlers that come to camp and would receive only the value of their money. With the store they share the profits of the store. Xwd Xo Water Wagon \ow The water line was completed to day and there will be no more water carrying for Company D as long as we CASTORU fwlnfantsandLhifdiecL A ] LuiUod YouJata Hjujlit ywS4ra&2jjjpj stay here unless the water line should break. Friday evening members of the com pany saw something they had never, and probably never will again, see. Be tween the hours of 8.30 and 11.30 they viewed an almost total eclipse of tha moon with the naked eye. The moon being full and the sky cloudless, with very dry atmosphere, made the eclipse plain, and when viewed through a pair of very strong field glasses was some thin* the men will never forget. Except for a little effect of the inoculation, the men are all well and are making themselves as comfortable as possible in this hot, sandy desert along the Border. CORPORAI, H. J. BRETZ.
