City Clerk Serves Notices. City Clerlt Hurry I'atton wiis kept, busy yesterdav serving the twenty -day pi volutin! notices on the Mill streni property owners. The notices were served on property holder* only as far us the D. L. & W. tracks, as it is in teucltd to hold the others back uut'l the si met paving has progressed to a point beyond Bloom street. In nearly every ease the notices were well received, the property owners showing the utmost willingness to put their sidewrlUs in good order.

First Aid for Railroaders. A coarse of lectures to educate the ! Pennsylvania railroad employes ill the care of injured in emergency eases lias been began at Altoona by Dr. H. P. Powuell, chief medical examiner for the relief department there, and it is announced that all the engineers, con doctors, firemen, flagmen aud brake men between Philadelphia and Pitts burg will be obliged to attcud similar lectures at an early date. At the same time the company is equipping all baggage cars and cabius with stretch eis and first aid packages. The first aid equipment is not a new idea, but the course of practical lect ures upou the proper use of the appli ances is. It is characteristic of the Pennsylvania to tabu the lead in Ibis, but the wouder is that it lias not been doue before. It involves considerable expenso to the company aud some lit tle iiiconvenieuco to the trainmen,but the benofits that are bound to follow are so numerous that they more than warrant the outlav iu money aud time. The amount of needless pain that will be prevented, to moutioii but one of the results of intelligent and sys tematic first aid training, is incalcul able. Tiainmeu, passengers and oth ers injured uow at remote points aie frequertly compelled to rely upon the totally untrained ministrations of the train crew uutil they are hurriod to some hospital or place where a physi* ciau can attend to their injuries. Be the efforts of these nurses ever so ten der they almost invariably fail to al leviate the pain and as a result untold agony is the lot of the injured person for a long period just at a time when pain has a particularly weabeuiug effect upon the systmi. This is not because the trainmen do not appreciate the importance of stopping the suffer ing ; they simply do not know how to do it. The natural effect of this lack of proper attentiou at a time when it is most needed is that the shock to the nervous system frequently is more troublesome than the actual physical injury. But if the conrse of lectures which the Pennsylvania officials pur pose giving is wisely directed to cov er the peculiar ue3ds of railroads the day is not far distant when this un necessary dauger will be reduoed to a minimum on their road at least.

Members of H prominent Philadel phia family, the Puidons, have enter ed emit in Snyder cotinfv for 260 acres of lanii, which was held by ilie family as far back as Revolutionary times. The object of the dispute is to dispossessed! families who are at present holding the land, which the Puritans aver, still belongs to their family. Some one in the family al lowed the title to the land to lapse in some way, probably because of non payment of taxes, and it is the desire of all to regain it. The twenty acres are situated around Purdon ia, and l hey had lost sight of the land until a relative discovered the state of atTairs, and learned that the persons now oc cupying the tract are little more than squatters, although they have held it for about seventy-five years. Miss Maria Purdon, iu whose name the suit is brought, is a great grand daughter of John Purdon, author of "Purdon's Digest." Making Friends fcvery Day.

Mrs. .liilm Angell, who several years ago brought suit against tlie ( heirs of Jay Gould, claiming she was his widow, died at House's Point, N. 1 V., on Saturday. She was about 70 years old. Miss Helen Gould's love for her ■ father is largely responsible for dis ' proving the charges that when a minor Jay Gould married, and that the woman whom the world looked upon as his wife had no rightful claim to the name. After his death she assigned herself the task of going over all his letters and pa|iers, and was able to give her lawyers memor anda which accounted for nearly every hour of his life during the time covered by the Angell charges.

Principal Downes, of the Harris burg High school, made announce ment at the chapel exercises Monday morning that the card system of punishment would be started that day. lu speaking of the system he said he would not dwell on the ad vantages to be derived saying only that the faculty was satisfied that the move was a good one. He said he hoped many difliculties would be overcome and many misunderstand ings averted. On one side of the card are places for the date, section of pupil, teach er's name, otTence and scholar's name. The other side is a blank on which the principal will require the pupil to make written promise not to commit the otTence again in such cases as he sees lit. Ail cards will be tiled in the otlice of the principal and will be used for future reference. Owing to the fact that this system was started in the middle of a term an account of the demerits given previous to Mon day will be kept and the pupil will be held accountable at all times for them.
