Bundled and Booted i Study at Tubercular School THEY ENDURE ZERO WEATHER Some of Them Are Cured, and All Are Made Sturdier—Successful Experi ment With Open Air Teach ing at Hazleton. j Hazleton. —This city has come for j ward with the new idea in school j work —a school for children afflicted i with tuberculosis in the first stages— j the real open-air school, where while the children are at work, a stranger j passing along and seeing them in their | strange garb, might mistake them for a band of Eskimos, just arrived from the Arctic regions. Their garb is so comfortable that they can endure the worst sort of winter weather, and would be fair competitors to the Eski mos were they suddenly taken to the frigid regions. In 1910 Hazleton branclied out, through the glad hand of annexation, and welcomed into the city proper territory formerly embrac ed by the Hazle township school dis trict. This added 23 schools to the city proper, and increased the instruc tors' force to upward of 100 teachers. | But after that 60 teachers had to look | after 2200 children, and a new $50,000 I high school building took the place of | the annexed district's old one, and thus the latter was destined jto become the real first air school. As a rule tuberculosis is pre valent among miners to a larger per i cent, than among other industrial | workers. This was on© reason why | there was a need for the, local State j Tuberculosis Dispensary in this city, ! in charge of Dr. William C. Gayley. : Coming in contact with hundreds of families during a year Dr. Gayley soon ■ saw the need of some kind of a school ; for a great number of children afflict ied with this disease. For many ! months he gave the problem careful ! study, and when he finally arrived at a plan he unfolded it to the school authorities, and Superintendent David I A. Harman was the first one to come to his assistance, and then they were reinforced by the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Hazleton Tuberculosis Society, an energetic brnnch of the United Chari ties of the city. What is the result, after this school 1 has about completed its second term, with 37 pupils enrolled? Half a dozen children have been cured of the dread disease, which might soon have rap ped away their lives. These are now back in the regular schools in their ! districts and do'".g ?ood work. Others, i weak and feeble when they entered, have greatly changed in weight and ap pearance and are stronger children, physically and mentally. Saving the Orchards. llarrisburg.—Final instructions for the commencement ot the spring ser ies of demonstrations of methods of destroying San Jose scale and other fruit tree pests and of pruning trees were given to 30 of the men who will he in charge of this branch of the State's practical horticultural work. The men have been here all week for instruction and will begin demonstra- ! ♦ ions in 32 counties, the demonstra tions continuing throughout the re mainder of the month. Dr. H. A. Sur face, State Zoologist, director of the work, says that demonstrations will be held in orchards placed at the dis posal of the State as models, and that in April orchards put under State su pervision will be inspected. Whitehead On Licenses. Williamsport.—"lt is as much the j duty of the court to grant a license | for the sale of liquor, upon proper pe- j tition ,as it is to grant a marriage li cense, when the proper requirements j of law have been complied with," said j Judge Whitehead, in defining his posi- j tion on the liquor question at his first j session of License Court He made it I clear, however, that the necessity for j a leading requirement, and gave warn- I a hotel with bar attached was to be j ing that in his opinion, no more hotels j are necessary in Williamsport, unless i it should be a large modern hotel in ! the central part of the city. Punishes Thieving Banker. Pittsburgh.—lsadore Klein, former foreign banker of Braddock, convicted recently of embezzlement, was fined $9500 in Criminal Court by Judge L. I. Davis, beside an indeterminate sen tence of not over three years in the penitentiary. The fine is double the amount embezzled from depositors, mostly foreign mill workers. It is the heaviest sentence in Criminal Court in a long while. Klein pleaded guilty to lt> additional counts. Jail Board Up Seven Cents. New Castle.—Judge William D. Por ter has made an order increasing the allowance of the Sheriff of Lawrence county for boarding prisoners from 30 to 37 cents a day. The Judge points out that a Sheriff is not supposed to make anything on boarding prisoners, but should bo al lowed something for looking after them. Allowing $5 a week for such oversight, the cost of keeping Law rence county's prisoners in January was 37 cents, and Judge Portea 1 thinks that is a fair sum. MORE DEAD IN COATESVILLE Number of Fatalities in Typhoid Epidemic is Twenty. SAY COUNCIL IS RESPONSIBLE Local Paper, Contending That It Voices Public Opinion, Makes De mand for Immediate Resignation in a Body—Threats of Death. (Special Harrisburg Correspondence.) Harrisburg.—Following the occur rence of three more deaths from the typhoid epidemic, making a total of 20 fatalities traceable directly to the pollution of the water supply system, the resignation of the Borough Coun cil in a body was demanded by the Coatesville Record. The article in the Record claims to voice the sentiment of the citizens of the stricken borough, and it scath ingly arraigns the members of the Council. The editorial, demanding that the members of the Council resign in a body, is in part as follows: "At noon today the awful toll from typhoid stood at 20; of the more than 200 persons ill with fever a doz en were reported to be in a condition J in which the scales of life and death I were balancing. Practically every I business house on Main street was closed, while the town was burying i its honored dead. I"And all because some one had I blundered. "That Coatesville may rehabilitate itself and come forth a clean, healthy and prosperous town, against whose [ public works and public improve ments no shadow of suspicion can be raised, some drastic action must be taken. "The State has laid the blame for the typhoid epidemic directly at the doors of the Council. Unless some thing is done this same Council will be in charge of improvements which, j with the completion of a permanent J water supply and a sewage disposal I plant, will cost several hundred thou ; sand dollars. | "Profiting by the lessons so dearly I learned, burned into their brain by ! the hand of death, should this Coun j oil take tip the work demanded by the | State, build and manage these im j provements with all the skill any i group of men could possibly devise, j the finger of doubt would still be i pointed at them, because they had been previously confronted with an emergency and failed. "When things have reached a con dition that grief-stricken parents give open expression to a wish to stand up certain members of Council iu a row and then shoot them down through the heart, these Councilmen, if they have any spark of humanity left, should no longer desire to hold office." Beauty in Ice-Gorge Perils. As a result of the continual flow cf ice in tho Susquehanna River, a ' gorge, stretching from bank to bank, extended from Duncan's Island, north of McCall's Ferry, up to Wrightsville. Two years ago, under similar condi | tions, the ice crushed several build ings along the York county shore and flooded Safe Harbor. Over a great extent of this enormous gorge the crowding ice cakes have jammed solid to the bottom, and a tremendous pres sure of water will be required to car ry the mass away. For many miles the rugged ice presents a picture nxore suggestive of the Arctic regions suggestive of the Arctic regions. Up to Ceiling Twenty Times. Lebanon.—Samuel Brandt, of Rei nohlsville, narrowly escaped death in being whirled around a shafting at the Lebanon Stove Works here. Brandt's coat sleeve was caught, and he was drawn into the whirling ma chinery. He owes his escape from instant death to the fact that he is unusually small in stature, permitting his body to pass between the shaft and ceiling a score of times before ! the engine was slopped. On being rescued from his perilous position it ' was found that his body had been I stripped and he was suffering from | severe internal injuries and several > broken ribs. Tourist in Agony on Car. Shamokin. With blood oozing j from a bullet wound in his thigh, and almost dead from exhaustion, Charles | Rocasky, a young man living here, j was admitted to the local hospital. He stated that he had been West, I nnd, having no money, was stealing a j ride on a freight train from Clearfield I to this place, when somebody shot him while he was on the top of a box car. Enduring great agony and afraid I to inform anybody of his condition en- ■ route for fear of being arrested for : illegal car riding, he managed to reach here, when he collapsed. Noted Hotel Closed. Harrisburg. The Lochiel Hotel, j the headquarters of the late M. S. I Quay during political conventions and j the stopping place for Presidents and J other notables who visited this city, j served its last meal. The hotel will be changed into a I theatre and, while the upper and rear portions of the old hostelry will be used for sleeping rooms, the greater part of the building will be utilized for theatrical purposes.

Father Now In Second Place. She was a prim miss of thirteen who stood before the rector of a well known New York Episcopal church . and looked him squarely In the eye. ; "Please repeat that fifth command ment again," he said, for he was cate chising her with regard to her knowl edge of the Scriptures apropos of the coming confirmations. "Honor thy mother and thy father, that thy days may be long In the land which the thy Qod giveth thee," was the response. "Honor thy mother and ; thy father," mused the rector. "Who ; taught you that?" "Mother," was the response. "These are certainly suf fragist days upon which we have fall en," remarked the minister. "Father used to come first." Counterfeiter Gets Stiff 6er»tence. ■William Fink, a Brooklyn, N. Y., dealer fn drugs, was sentenced by the New York Court of Special Sessions, to Imprison ment In the penitentiary at hard labor, for four months. The charge was coun terfeiting the trade-mark for Carter's Llt ! tie Liver Pills, In violation of the penal law. The Carter Medicine Company detected the counterfeit before any quantity of the •purlous goods had been placed upon the Karket. In sentencing Fink, Judge Douel Id special stress upon the Injury done to the public when a remedy so well known as Carter's Little Liver Pills Is counter felted and put on tha market. He im ' posed the sentence not only ns the prop er punishment of Fink himself, but In or der to deter others from the commission of Ilk* trauds In the future. A Match.

Years ago In a stock performance of j a famous old melodrama, the villain, j Charles Wolcott, suddenly discovered that he bad left his revolver In the dressing room. In much confusion, he fumbled in his pocket and found a penknife which, he figured, would do just as well for the bloody deed. Imag- | ine his consternation when, after j plunging the blade Into the hero's j breast, that player failed to change j his lines and screamed at the top of j his voice: "Heaven forgive you! I'm shot." Humorous Thrust. "How—" The savage chief held a glittering spear near the captive missionary. " —do you like this?" His tone was not facetious, but the ; captive was undismayed. "Well, If you ask me—" He glanced at the weapon, the pro- | pinquity of which was not comforting, j " —it goes against my stomach!" Unfortunately, however, the enp- j tlve was in a locality where there is no market for humor, and the end came soon. HER MONEY BOUGHT IT. Hixon —To what does Landit owe his seat In the senate?

Writing front the vicinity David Harum made famous, a man says that he was an habitual coffee drinker, and, although he knew it was doing hlra harm, was too obstinate to give it up, till all at once he went to pieces with j nervousness and insomnia, loss of ap petite, weakness, and a generally used-up feeling, which practically un- ! fitted him for his arduous occupation, i and kept him on a couch at home when his duty did not call him out. "While in this condition Grape- Nuts food was suggested to me, and I began to use it. Although it was in the middle of winter, and the ther mometer was often below zero, almost my entire living for about six weeks of severe exposure was on Grape-Nuts food with a little bread and butter and a cup of hot water, till I was wise enough to make Postuiu my table bev- | erage. "After the first two weeks I began \ to feel better and during the whole winter I never lost a trip on my mail route, frequently being on the road 1 7 or 8 hours at a time. "The constant marvel to me was how a person could do tho amount of work and endure the fatigue and hard ship as I did, on so small an amount of food. But I found my new rations so perfectly satisfactory that I have continued them —using both Postum j and Grape-Nuts at every meal, and often they comprise my entire meal. "All my nervousness, Irritability and insomnia have disappeared aud healthy, natural sleep has come back to ma. But what has been perhaps the great est surprise to me Is the fact that with the benefit to my general health i has come a remarkable improvement \ In my eye-sight. "If a good appetite, good digestion, good eye-sight, strong nerves and an i active brain are to be desired, I can say from my own experience, use Grape-Nuts and Postum."
