WITH A FEW TIMELY GOMMENTS Another Paragraph on the In adequate SyBtem for Affording Rolief to People Who Are Injured at tho Collieries. BOSS at tho Knicbor bockcr colliery hep taken exception to a recent article of mine in the UehaltJ in regard to the treat ment of thoso who are unfortunate odour ti to be injured in the mines, and with special referonco to the Pole who had a leg crushed at the Knickerbocker colliery last week and virtually bled to death. Tho boss inking the exception says that thoy did everything they cbuld for the man with such lacililies as they had at the colliery, I did not' consuro tho bosees at the colliery, I did say that there should bo some system by which victims could receive better treatm nt than that Pole did. Thero should bo arrangements whereby physicians can bo eummoned to give temporary relief, or tho colliery offices should bo suppliod with relief boxes and orief directions for their uo. The mere carrying of n man out of a mino and placing him in an ambu lance, with perhaps a drink of water, is not treatmeut equal to the emergencies that frequently arise; and tho fact that the friends of the unfortunates do not do their duty is no excuse for allowing a human being to die without attendance at the road side. V I see that Kate Keeley and Lizzie Miles, tho younK women who begged Chief Bur gess Smith to allow them to sorvo Utno in tho lockup instead of sending them to tho Poitsville jail, bavo landed in tho latter place after all.

Palmer is so well pleased with Montana, whero he is at present on a tour, that upon his return horo ho will pull up stakes and movo his family thero.

Should thoso two gentlemen adhore to their present views Shonandoah will lose.two ol its best citi zens and Republican voters. The fair season will open in September. Orwigsburg and Lavella promise big things this year, but the poor old Kingtown grounds loem to have gone upon tho sbolf for good.

Interesting Items Concerning Different Sections of the Region Many of our exchanges, in view of the fact that tfio public schools aro about to open, aro sounding notos of warning against the mischievous habit of defacing pavements and school buildings with chalk marks, by school boys who pilfer tho chalk in school.

A CURRENT FROM THE TROLLEY Through a Broken Telephone Wire Knocks Down Three Horses, Ono of Them Horribly Burnod. ELLS of frightened children and men, screams of women, and tho sight ot three horses lying in tho street," stretched stiff and unable to move a muscle, presented a Oak street, between i St thrilling scone on Main street and Pear alley, at about half past ten o'clock this morning. A broken telephone wire had dropped and fallen across tho oloctric railway trolley wiro and tho horsos lying In tho street were receiving tho full boneflt of tho current running through tbo trolley. Two man who wore engaged in doing wire work for tho Philadelphia and Beading Telegraph Company, hurried to the scene, cut tho telephone wlro'and released tho un fortunate beasts. Eye witnosses to tbo occurrence stato that while tho P. & It. mon were engaged In making connections for tho electric clocks that are being" introduced In town, tho telephone wire stretched along Oak street. west to Poar alley, snapped. The telephone wiro fell across tho trolley wire and the loosened end foil upon a team of horses owned by M. P. Fowler that was being driven east along Oak street towards Main. The horses foil in front of Franey's build ing as a steer falls when struck by i butcher. The noxt instant a horso belonging to Frank Schmidt, and driven by two boys, stopped upon an end of the broken wire and he, too, went down upon tho street like a shot. The boys driving him were thrown foreward ovor tho dash board of the wagon, but fortnnatoly did not striko either tbo horso or wire. One of tho boys was about to help raise the horse, but tho shouts of bystanders deterred him. Had ho failed to hoed the shouts the boy would in all probability havo received u shock that would have killed him. Moanwhilo tbo three horses romained prostrate, under the current through the telephone wire from tho trolley. Ono of tho clock men hurriedly cut tho telephone wiro and tho current was cut off. Schmidt's horse got up a moment or two after. JIo had suffered but little. Ono of Fowler's horses next got up. His body boro marks of the livo wire, but the third horso presontod borriblo effects of tbo shock. There woro two doop ridges burned upon its leftside Ono was so doop that it pene trated the hide, fiosh and muscles, baroly penetrating the tissue that covers the en trails, but leaving the latter plainly in view. This horse was taken to the stable at tho rear of tho Grand Union Tea Com pany's storo and was attended by John B, Gise, the votorinary surgeon, who said tbo injuries woro of a vory serious character, but that if inflammation could be avoided the horso could bo saved. The foreman of the clock gang was not inolined to say muoh. Ho said, "We were strotchlng wire for tho clocks when the telephone wiro snappod and fell on tho trolley. I don't know what made tho teiophono wiro break." It is most fortunate that the telephone wiro did not fall upon tho drivers of tho horses or pedestrians, for in that case thero would coitainly b.ayo boen loss of life. This accidont would incite all wiro re pairer to the utmost caution, espocially when doing their work near tho electric trolley or live oloctric light wires.

A Ituse Hull Trip, Editor Heuald: Our trip of throa days was a success in overy respect and the boys onjoyod themselves immonsoly. In iustico to myself I would llko to state that this club is not run as that swellod headed ball playor said it was. We havo a secre tary, and sn able one, in the person ol Mr. William Scanlon, but because I would not appoint some of his larger headed com panions to office I was no good. Then, again, ho was prejudiced against and jealous of his fellow players and, worso than all, a disorganizer. Wo could not play successfully, as he was working againBt tho club and players. As a ball player Mr. Roilly's head has increased in size wonderfully of lata and his assertions as to how a club should bo run aro con temptible. I think I used good 'judgment in shifting htm and that handball player, Mr. Dalton, where they belongod on tho outside.
