Is Coal
All Alike?
We have heard many persons say, "I don't
think there is any difference in coal, it's all
alike."
All coal is Tint alike. .lust because it looks alike is
no evidence that it is all alike.
" We have a list in our office of more than 300 coal
mines and collieries in Pennsylvania producing coal
of varying degrees of hardness.
The coal from some mines is very inferior in qual
ity while that from others is excellent.
Anthracite mines produce Soft Coal, Medium Coal,
Hard Coal. Extremely Hard Coal, i'tc. All these
kind give, different results.
We have made a careful study of the coal business
and know which kind is best.

| INFANTILE PARALYSIS GERM
Dr. Simon Flexn, Isolates It and Sees
It Under a Powerful
Lense
Baltimore, Oct. 9. —'An important
new report by I>r. Simon Flexner, head
of the Rockefeller Institute for 'Medical
Research, on infantile paralysis was tlie !
I feature on the closing day of the Johns
i Hopkins silver jubilee celebration.
Dr. Flexner' addition to what he;
has already said publicly about his I
! work on infantile jdralysis was the |
i statement that he had definitely sue-1
; eeeded in transmitting the disease to
i monkeys with the microorganism which i
I he had previously said he thought was I
the cause of the disease.
. The fact that he had at last suc
j eeeded in transmitting the disease by ;
! means ot' this microorganism which he ;
I had cultivated proved beyond doubt \
i that he had isolated the germ.
Dr. Flexner also said that he hail j
j found it possible to see the cell clearly '
under a microscope of high power. For- j
inerly this had been considered impos
sible. It is at least five times smaller!
] than any other known bacteria, said'
| Dr. Flexner.
The doctor said he believed that the I
disease was transmitted through the ]
respiratory channels! rather than 1
by insects, as some have held, and he i
advanced the theory that perfectly I
healthy persons often carried the germ !
I in their bodies and infected children; '
j that there were "carriers" of infan- j
j tile paralysis, just as it is known that, j
[there are "carriers" of typhoid and
i diphtheria, who, while transmitting j
these diseases io others, do not suffer i
II from them themselves.
Physicians who heard Dr. Flexner V
' i lecture said that it was an extremely j
. important one to medical science in j
I that it broke ground in an entirely new |
I field of medicine—the field of diseases i
whose germs would pass through filters !
and had in the past been thought invis- j
ible even under microscopes. Scarlet j
fever and measles are in this clasS.
To Celebrate With Dinner
Perseverance bodge of Masons will
celebrate its 135 th anniversary Novem
ber 10 with a dinner in the Masonic j
Temple. The lodge will be the hosts!
of the Elizabethtown Home on October!
1 2ti at a special meeting to be held in
1 the local Temple.
A Cross Bull
The late Cross never added
j greatly to the humor of the nation. On
one occasion, however, while he was
stil! in the House of Commons, he tried
I to be sarcastic during a speech.
"I think," he aaid, fixing a certain
Minister with a ferocious eye, "I think
T hear the right honorable gentleman
smile.",
After that remark, if it were any
satisfaction to him, he heard the whole
house laugh.-—Loudon Globe.
A Gloomy Bedroom
A sight which attracted a great deal
: of curious attention in London recently
; was a furniture show window on Ox
| ford street, which had been set, out by
| a futurist decorator as a sample of the
1 "bedroom of the future. The sheets and
j pillows on the bed were coal black, and
! the wall paper was of black and white
j stripes. There were orange and green
j cushions on a purple sofa and a vivid
i green china bird to put the finishing
touch to the gloom of the surroundings.
BENEFITS OF VIVISECTION
Dr. R. M. Pearce Says Experiments Aid
Physicians
Atlantic City, Oct. 9.—Dr. R. M.
Pearce, member of the medical faculty
of the University of Pennsylvania, yes
terday told delegates to the convention
of the American Humane Society what
vivisection has done to advance medical
science. It was the. first time in the
history of the organization that the
subject has been debated and the vivi
seetionists given an opportunity to pre
sent their side of the case.
L>r. Pearce told the gathering that
he was under indictment at The present
time for cruelty to animals, due to his
experiments, in the university labora
tory, but declared that he was innocent
of the charges. Through blood tests
and cultures, made through inoculation
of animals, l'r. Pearce said it was pos
sible to save children from tuberculosis
in some forms and to cure certain
classes of idiocy in children.
Without recourse to vivisection
where inoculation is employed, cures
could not be effected with the certainty
that its use gives to physicians, he
said. \'o I'laim of cruelty, he asserted,
had ever been proven in court against
research institutions.
HERE'S A RARE SPECIES!
Representative Nelson a "Bloodhound
on Trail of the Octopus"
Washington, Oct. 9. —Representative
Nelson, ot Wisconsin, in a speech op
posing the Clayton anti-trust bill yes
terday told the House that ever since
he had been in public life he had been
a "bloodhound on the trail of the oc
topus. ''
Washington has heen interested in
Mr. Nelson ever since he arrived, tout
it never was suspected that he was a
submarine bloodhound.
$20,000 Award for Husband's Death
New York, Oct. 9.—A jury before
Supreme Court Justice Benedict in
Brooklyn yesterday awarded Mrs. Alice
M. 'Lorenzen a verdict of $20,000 in
her suit against the Edison Electric ll
luminating Company for the death of

Celebration Ends at Brownsville
Brownsville, Pa., Oct. 9.—Browns
ville's centenary anniversary closed
i yesterday. The principal features were

I the Monongahela river by Governor

NEWS OF THE S
RECORD OF THE BRAVES
UNPRECEDENTED IN GAME
Chicago White Sox Made a Remark
able Deal Through American
League in 1006 But Was Not So
Spectacular As Boston Nationals
.New York, Oct. 9. While Philadel
phia has enjoyed a big slice of the
honors which accompanied the right
to be a contended for the world's base
ball championship, Boston has not been
wanting in her share in the glories of
the annual championship series. WUeu
the clubs representing these two cities
meet in the opening game for this
years' world's pennant, it will mark
the tift.h time that Philadelphia has
entered such a struggle and it will be
tho third for Boston. Had the New
York Nationals not refused to play
with the "Hub" players in 1904, the
Boston Americans would have had au
additional opportunity of lighting for
the championship. However Boston
claimed tho world's honors for that
year by default.
Since the American and National
league pennant winners first played
against each .other in 1903, the Ath
letics of Philadelphia have played four
times and won fliree post season series.
The Boston won the two that they
fought, to a linish first beating tho
Pittsburgh Nationals in 1903. After
waiting eight years from the time of
the disappointing refusal of the Giants
in 1904, the "Wed Sox" had the sat
isfaction of taking Manager MeCSraw's
men into camp, scoring their second
victory in the banner series of 1912.
Hitherto the American League was
solely responsible for Boston's world's
baseball honors, but this year the Na
tionals, or "Braves," which they are
aptly called, after a rush, which aston
ished all followers of the national
game are in the forefront of the bat
tle. The flight of the Braves is without,
parallel in the annals of baseball. From
last place to first was thoir accomplish
ment, and this within a period ot' five
weeks.
The Braves were lowest of the eight,
teams in the National league on July
18. On August 23, they had mounted
to first place, tied with the Giants. It
was ten days later, September 2, be
fore the Bostons went into the lead
with a clear title for the time being,
and it was September S before they
finally entrenched themselves at the
top. But the historians of baseball will
mark their performance as "Last place
to first in 36 days. A record."
Only one team within the memory
of present day "fans" has nearly ap
proached the extent of the Braves' re
markable progress. That was the Chi
cago White iSox of 1906 in their dash
through the American league teams
from seventh place to first. The White
Sox were a team of generally appre
ciated high rank, bowed low with bad
breaks during the first of the season.
The Bostons .on the other hand, were
dubbed tlie "lowly Braves." with lit
tle to indicate or warrant a better
name.

Scrnbs at Annville This Afternoon
Much interest is being shown in to
morrow's game of the Technical High
school eleven witbh the Sunibury High
school team on the lil. A. <_!. grounds
'because it is Tech's lirst local game of
t'iie present ifiini,; aign. The first pair of
games on the local school's schedule
have been out-of-town games.
■Coach 'Pun-kle is giving tiie team
daily workouts in ipreyaration for the
struggle and will announce the line-up
after to-day's game. Suu'huiy's team is
reported strong and will give a close
run, but after the showing against the
(Bucknell scrubs last Saturday Tech is
confident of running uip a fairly big
score.
One big shift has 'been made on t!he
Tech squad. Phillipelli, the tbig guard,
has l»een slhit'ted to t'he backfield in
practice where his greait strength can
bo used to better advantage, Pour can
didates are trying for the squad posi
tions, 'both of which are vacant after
the shift.
While to-morrow's game has attract
ed the attention of the I ova I school's
students, the football fans of the city
are awaiting the contest to get the first
glimpse of Tech's game this season. The
two local exhibitions of the Central
High team have been very interesting
because of the easy time Central had
•in running awav with the invaders. To
morrow's game may prove to be a
better game from the spectator's point
of view. The game will be called at
2 o'clock.
Central High's weekly opponent is
'the 'Lebanon Valley scrubs at Annville
to-day. The gamo has been switched
from Saturday because the scrubs will
accompany the virsity team to Lan
caster for the Franklin and 'Marshall
game. Central players will likely wit
ness the Tech game to-morrow.
