The Board of Health Investigates of Its Two Violations Rules. NO PENALTIES IMPOSED ! AN UNDERTAKER AND SEXTON, WERE THE ACCUSED,' BUT ACTION WAS SUSPENDED. The Board Inaugurates a Movement Against Roaming Dogs and Hogs and Will Call Upon the Borough Council. The Board of Health held a special meeting last night to consider violations of the rales of the board by an under taker and a sexton in causing the burial of a body without the issuance of a permit from the board. The undertaker was William Snyder. He was in attendance at the meeting and stated that one of his employes had tried to secure u permit and failed, that npon calling at the house of President Spalding he found the place vacant, the doctor having moved. President Spalding read the section of the rules applying to the case, which pro vides that the burial permit must be procured twenty four hours before the time .appointed for. ihe funeral. The penalty is a line of froui$3 to$20. Snyder's statement of tho cise created a doubt in his favor, as Dr. Spalding changed his residence on the duy the employe was said to have called for the permit. After some discussion the undertaker was dis missed with a warning that under no circumstances shall a body be burled without a permit and that the undertaker alone is subject to the penalty for u viola tion of the rule. Mr. Snyder promised to strictly observe the rules in the future, The case of the sexton was then taken up. Tho accused was George Unsara- wicz, who is the sexton of the Lithuanian cemetery. When called upon to state why he allowed an interment to be made without requiring a permit he replied that be always enforced the rules, but on the day in question he was absent from the cemetery and the man who served Id his place forgot to require the production of the permit. The penalty in this case is also from $3 to $20, but as the sexton told a good story and showed a desire to con form to the requirements of the board he was dismissed with the admonition to see that thereis.no violation in the future. President Spalding thoughtsomeactiou should be taken towards ridding tin borough of the numerous worthless curt. He says complaintB have never been a's numerous as at present. He could not account for the vicious nature of the dogs. It was possible, he said with borne humor, that the hard times had prevented the dogs from getting enough to eat. Mr. Maloue said that If he had his way he would kill every dog in the town, Irrespective of breed. He doubted that a valuable dog exists in the town. He then t"ld a humorou3 story of an old Irishman who was High Constable of the town everal years ago. The Borough CouncI! had decided that all dogs running at Urge should be Impounded on and after u certain date. On the day fixed tbe HIgt. Constable appeared with a stout cane having on one end an Immense ball of lead and every dog that came his way was nailed. It is hardly necessary to state that the High Constable's miscon structionof the term "Impounded" caused considerable excitement. The nuisance created by hogs roaming about tbe streets was also discussed and It was Anally decided that both the dog and hog nuisances would bo brought be fore the Borough Council at its meeting tomorrow night. The matters are strictly within the jurisdiction of the Council, as It has control of ihe High Constable and has the power to create a pound for the animals. , Does your head feel as though someone was hammering it ; as though a million sparks were flying out of the eyes f Have you horrible sickness of the stomach t Burdock Blood Bitters will cure you.

Revival of the Weights and Measures Laws The Lakeside Electric Rail way Extension Will be Pushed to Completion. Although the opening of the fishing season is still two weeks distant some people have already batted their hooks and trouble is likely to follow. Two parties have already been spotted and close watch Is being kept upon them. It is said that they have thus far caught hundred and nine trout in the streams of the Catawissa Valley. Tho Mahanoy City Fish and Game Pro tective Association has taken the matter in hand and is said to have accumulated sufficient evidence to make, the flh caught cost the guilty party a good round sum. Illegal fishing is to be dealt with severely this year, and It should be at times. One of the most important bills before the State Legislature Is one which pro vides for the re-creation of the offices of Sealers of Weights and Measures. Un fortunately the bill only affects the city and county of Philadelphia, One should be enacted to cover the whole state. Tho old law was wiped off the statute books in 18S3 because it worked hardships upon small storekeepers nnd provision dealers. Under that law the Sealers were paid by fees received from the storekeepers, dealers and others whose weights they examined. The Sealers appointed deputies and from time to time the Deputy Sealers made the rounds and compelled those concerned to show and test their weights ftnd measuresjtnd exacted iet whether the weights arid measures were properly stamped or not. The extent to which this was carried and the opportunities given for mulcting the storekeepers led to the complaints which caused the abolition 'of the offices. The imposition was so clear that even those whom the law was intended to bene fit did not object to the repeal. Of late years housekeepers have been at the mercy or ueaiers regaruing tne weight or measure ot the various articles of food that must bo purchased for household use, and It Is complaint from this source tnat has given rise to the movement to revive the offices. It is proposed to obviate the evils of the old system by paying each of the Sealers u salary and thus prevent the unneces sary harassing ot storekeepers and pro vision dealers for the sake of collecting fees. The people of Shenandoah are In need of the protection which is contem plqted by this bill for tbe people of Phila delphia. Complaints are made by house keepers that they are often cheated by dishonest dealers who use light weights and short measures. Some of the farmers, they say, are the most bare-faced rogues Their measures are so brazenly short that none but a hayseeder would use them rue raise bottoms ot tne measures are fixed so close to the centers that many of the farmers blush when they dump the vegetables from them. At present there is no adequate method prescribed by law to remedy the evil, or to bring tbe offenders to justice. A report has been abroad that the ex tension of the electric railway from Mahanoy City to Lakeside had been abandoned. The report is not true. The recent decision of the Supreme Court in the Inter-County electric railway suit has no bearing upon the rights of way of the Lakeside Electric Railway, as the consent ot all parties concerned in private and other properties along the route was secured and all matters in that connection were adjusted independent of any of the suits. Hon. D. D. Phillips is now in in Philadelphia and tomorrow will return with everything arranged to begin work on the extension by the latter part of this week. The road will be completed to Delano by Juno 1st, as previously an nannced, and the Lakeside end ot the line will be completed by July 1st. It is also expected that upon Mr, Phillips' return a decision will be reached as to whether the Shenandoah state league base bull club will ploy on the old grounds, or upon new grounds to be located raid way between Shenandoah and Mahanoy City, and in which the railway company will have an Interest.
