PROCLAMATION
Issued by the Chief Burgees to Warn ell
Against the Sale or Use of Dangerous
Explosives on July Fourth.
VVllKREAS, Tho Stnto Hoard of Health
hag communicated with all of tho
Mayors and Burgosses of this Common
wealth rclativo to lawless Fourth of

tacrlfico of llfo incident thereto, .and
has called their attention to tho several
Acts of Assembly regarding explosive
materials, which are : "Tho Act of
Juno 10th, A. D., 1881 which makes it a
misdemeanor punishable by a fine, not
exceeding three hundred dollars to soil
to any person under sixteen years of ago
any cannon, revolver, pistol or other
inch deadly weapon, or any Imitation or

as to bo capable of being loaded with
gunpowder or othercxplosivc substanco,
cartridges, shot, ships, or balls, or to
sell to any such minor any cart
ridge, gunpowder or other dangerous
and explosive substanco ; Tho Act June
11th, A. D., 1SNS which makes It a
misdemeanor punishable, by a fine not
exceeding fivo hundred dollars, or
imprisonment for a term not exceeding

more than one hundred dollars, or
Imprisonment for a terra not exceeding
one year, or both, to sell flro-craekors
containing dynamite, chlorate, of potash,
or any explosive except ordinary gun
powder. Thoreforo, I, L. M. Simmons, burgess
of the borough of, Hoynoldsville, sympa
thizing with the laudable purpose of the
State Hoard of Iloalth to prevent, as
fur as possible, tho unnecessary sacri
fice of llfo which has for many years
characterized Fourth of July celebra
tions, but with no desire to provont or
hamper the lawful and patriotic ob
servance of that great day, horoby give
warning to all persons that tho several
Acts of Assembly heretofore montioned
will be strictly enforced.
L. M. Simmons, Burgess.
Ball and Chain.
The borough authorities havo becomo
tired of tramps making this town a
stopping placo, and at tho council
meeting hold Friday evening of last
week the Chief of Folicc was Instructed
to purchase for the uso of tho borough
six sets of balls and chains, it being the
intention to carry out to tho letter the
ordinance providing for the putting to
work of vagrants. The first hobo that
hits this town after the new decora
tions arrive will have cause to forget to
stop on his next visit. Brook vllle
Republican.
Burn and Horse Burned.
About 1.00 a. m. Thursday, June2.ini,
tho barn on Dock n. McConnell'i farm
In Hooch woods, near Bonnet Camp, was
burned with all its contents, four horses,
300 bushel of oats, 50 bushol of ryo, two
ton of hay, two wagons, grain drill and
other farm Implements. Mr. McCon
nell's loss will amount to at least 93,000
and ho will get about 9HO0 Insurance
The Are was the work of an Incendiary
or barn was accidentally set on lire by
somo person stealing grain. William
McConnell and Thomas Casn live on
tho farm, Deck H. McConnell resides
at Falls Crook whore ho Is engnged In
the mercantile business. Mr. Case had
a sick child and about twelve, o'clock
that night Mrs. Caso went to pump to
get child a drink and there was no sign
of firo about tho barn and when tho fire
was discovered an hour afterwards, tho
cntiro barn was in flames and tho men
were not ahlo to save anything.
Wednesday evening tho largo sliding
doors wore securely fastened on the
insido and when the fire was discovered
tho doors wcro standing open atxnit
thrco feet.
Another Public Fountain.
Tho I'ohoifrrr suggested lust woek
that another public drinking fountain
should he erected at tho corner of Main
and Fourth streets, and that tho work
of laying tho pipe, at least, should bo
done before tho street Is paved. An
excellent suggestion, and somo public
spirited man should tuko tho matter up
and push it along. If a fountain is put
In at corner of Main and Fourth it
should only be for tho pooplo to drink
from and not have a watering trough
attached, as the ono hits at corner of
Main and Fifth streets. The spring
that supplies the Fifth street fountain
could supply another fountain with
cool, sparkling water, therefore, there
is no water supply to pay for after the
fountain is erected.

A Timely Warning.
The Stato Board of Health is doing
its utmost to reduce tho list of dead and
wounded on the coming Fourth of July.
It has called the attention of the chief
officials of all the cities and towns of
Pennsylvania to the laws limiting or
forbidding the sale of the weapons and
explosives that ordinarily produce such
a lamentable and long roster of casual
Itles on Independence day, and it is the
duty of thoso officials to see that the
statutes are rigidly enforced. It Is not
the lack nf law but the neglect to put
the law Into operation, that Is respon
sible for tho deaths and malmlngs
caused by the toy pistol and the dyna
mite cracker. Very appropriately, the
board reinforces its reminder to local
authorities with a showing that on July
4, 1003, 40(1 persons were killed and
3.N83 injured throughout the country by
tho dangerous Instruments of celebra
tion. Pittsburg Time.
Moved to Pardus.
The head office nf the Panther Run
Coal Company, and allied Interests, was

manager of the oompanles, was of course
transferred to tho new office location.
We are sorry to see him leave Rldgway,
