k SCARE AT THE PUMPING STATION
Water Had Run Low In a Boiler, Although
the Gauge Registered Full-Several
of tho Boller'a Flues Were
Badly Sprung.
Tlirwator committco of the Borough Coun
cil wat caused smnounoasims Saturday night
by being informed that an explosion was
narrowly averted at tho pumpbig station of
the public water works and rciwirsmon wero
require t fix twsnty-three tubes of one of
tlio bolleis that had been sprang on account
of the rcieptaclo basing been allowed to ran
almost dry. Councilman A. D. Gable, chair
man of tl committee, and Superintendent
Betteridgo held a consultation, yesterday with
diaries Smith, the boilermaker, and it was
decided that tlio latter should go. to the plant
to-day and niako tho repairs.
According to tlio report made to tiio com
mittee it appears that when the day fireman,
William Woaior, went ou duty Saturday
morning ho found the- water gaugo of tho
middle boiler full, but thero was com pari
tively little water in tlio boiler. Ho also
observed that tho top valvo of tlio water
gauge was shut Werner put on coal and
took other step to dampo tlio lire and in a
short time all clangor of an explosion was
warded off. He says that thero is no doubt
that had not the dlscnvory been made when
it was an explosisn would kivo resulted.
Benjamin Womer, the father of William,
and who was tlio day engineer at tlio plant,
says that with tho top valvo of tlio gauge
clo-ed it was an easy, matter for tho fireman
to be deceived, as tlio gauge would draw tlio
water from tho boiler, and fill up, regardless
of tho quantity of water tho hitter contained.
Tho Borough Council will fully investigate
the matter. Tho damage sustained by the
boiler will not entail, much expense for re
pairs. There are two boilers still in use,
Wheu the damaged one is repaired the three
boilers will bo put in operation, as there is
now a sufficient amount of water in tho j
reservoir for constant day and night pumping.
It is now believed that the borough will
receive its regular supply of water hereafter.
Tlio last rain has started all tho springs and,
there is an abundance of water at hand.
Last night thero werasix and a half feet of
water in tlio Fowler's Bun reservoir and this
morning tho water was within twelve inches
of the wasto way at tho Bnuidonvillo reser
voir. This morning tlio supply which was cut off
from tho Furnaeo colliery ou account of tho
drought was turned on again.
Tlio short time schedule was abandoned
yesterday morning. The borough was given
a full supply all day and last night, and it is
still kept up. Tho pumping station is work
ing full timo.
Tho old water company says its springs havo
not been started, buUits reservoirs have been
greatly replenished by surface water. Two
days of rain will be required to start the
springs.

"DEMOREST"
is the name of one of the best
Sewing Machines now manufac
tured. How much and yet how little
most folks know about Sewing
Machines.
How many do know the crust
of "expense," counted in the
usual retail price of all Sewing
Machines.
It would astonish buyers if
they knew what actual cost is
and what retail price would be
were machines sold on the same
basis as the Dry Goods, Shoes,
or other merchandise.
Why not sell them so ? Time
for important patents has expired.
The field is now open, therefore
we offer you now a
$50.00 MACHINE for $19.50.
Taken all in all, we count the
"DEMOREST" the best Sewing
Machine in the market.
Light running, easily managed,
no noise, high arm, no springs,
every movement positive, hard
ened steel bearings, all steel at
tachments. More up to date in
improvements than any other.
How can we sell such a
machine at $19.50? Easy
enough.
We buy and sell sewing
machines as we buy and sell Dry
Goods.
No canvassers, no installment
business, nothing to make cus
' tomers stand extra costs.
