M. J. Beach, president of the Elk
Tanning Company, and ex-Judge Wil-j
lin-m E. Rice, counsel for the company, 1

various tanneries. Mr. Beach has

niter at the Galeton and Falls tan
neries at once and to equip the other
tanneries under his jurisdiction at the j

the purification of the streams of this 1
Commonwealth.

! at their tannery at Ludlow.
The agreement with this company is
a distinct victory for the Department
of Fisheries, as when the matter was I
j first taken up it was impossible to get [
anything done at this plant, but with
perseverance on the part of the de- j
partment and after having many con- j
ferences with the officials of the com- ,
I pany they adopted the plans as sub- i
mitted to them by Commissioner 1
• Buller. This company had an engi
neer from Massachusetts working on
j plans for the purification of wastes at
I their Ludlow plant for three weeks or
i more. These plans were submitted to
: the department, but were rejected ow
• ing to the fact that they were not
( practical. After having a three hours'
; conference on Wednesday morning Mr. !
i Olmstead readily agreed to install the J

the plans for the installation of this!

MAIL MATTER IS
NOT DISINFECTED
Commissioner Dixon Calls At
tention to Some Dangers
Which Lurk in Letters
State Commissioner of Health Dixon
i has issued a warning against handling
mail matter at the table. Dr. Dixon J
i says that mail matter comes from all i
i sorts of places and that as mail sacks
j are not disinfected there is always |
I danger of infection or contagion pres- !
! cnt.
Dr. Dixon says:
"Do you read your morning mall at i
, the breakfast table? Have you ever
used, a knife or fork to open your let
ters? It is not an uncommon practice
and yet an uncleanly and dangerous
one.
"The post office Is essentially a pub
j 11c utility and it is universally used
by all classes of people. A common
point of destination may put my lady's
dainty note beside a dirty scrawl from
; the vilest of slums.
"Millions of pieces of mail matter
are handled. A certain number of these
come from people who are suffering
from all kinds of diseases, some of
them loathsome and Infectious.
"Stamps and envelopes, contrary to
hygienic rules are for convenience sake
frequently licked. Despite quarantine
precautions mail sometimes comes j
I from houses where cases of communi
cable disease exists which have not
been reported!
j "Mail bags are not subjected to
regular disinfection, and are not so
cleansed as to make them safe from
the danger of becoming a factor in the
j transmission of disease.
| "During the recent epidemic of in
fantile paralysis many of those work
; ing on the disease formed the opin
i ion that It may bg carried by a third
j person. Is it unreasonable to pre
sume that the disease may bo carried
through the mail?"
BERLIN TROLLEY RATES
Berlin, Sept. 22.—Street car lines
j in many parts of Germany hope in
] the near future to be able to increase
j their tariffs by about 50 per cent, in
j order to meet increased costs. At a
I congress of street car men held recent
!ly in Berlin resolutions were unani
mously adopted in which it is point-
I cd out that the present universal tar
! iff of 10 pfennings (2% was
! adopted in the nineties, whereas even
I before the war the expenses of most
i companies had risen by 50 per cent,
and probably will rise even more af
j ter the war. A decided deterioration
i of all lines is to be expected, the res
olutions point out, unless they are
allowed to raise prices to 15 pfennigs
(3% cents).

i Cow Golf Hazard Is New;
Scorer Was a Solomon
St. Louis, Sept. 22. Fred Behring
and E. W. Snowden were playing for
the Class D championship recently,
when a cow strolled/ across the green.
Just then Behring swung, and his
ball went into the cow's mouth. He
chased the animal, beating it with his
club. The cow ran to a point near
the next hole before it dropped the
ball.
Behring putted the ball in and
claimed he made the hole in 2. The
official scorer was appealed to.
"You made it in 31," he told Beh
ring. "You struck that cow with that
club twenty-nine times before she
dropped the ball on the green."
