Sullivan, of Cementon, Meets Death at Glendon.

After fouty-four years of valuable service on the railroad, John P. Sullivan, a highly respected citizen of Cementon, was hurled to death ou the Central Railroad of New Jersey, near Glendon, yesterday morning. He was seventy years of age and has spent most of his life in tne service of the Central Railroad, The deceased was a native of Ireland, and came to this country when a boy. He located in the Lehigh Valley and lived here all life. Shortly after coming here he entered the employ of the Central Railroad.

Some years ago he decided to go to Texas and spent a year in that country in the railroad business. One year was enough and he returned and readily found another position on the Central, where he remained up to the time of his untimely death yesterday. Mr. Sullivan was employed as a flagman on the Central gravel or work train. At Glendon yesterday morning he left the train to protect the rear end.

A few moments later No. 8 passenger train came bowling along at the rate of about fifty miles per hour. There is a sharp curve at the point and the train, which came along on the main track struki him and hurled his body a number of feet over an embankment. When he was picked up both arms and both legs were broken and his skull was fractured. He was killed instantly.

The remains were placed on a train and brought to Siegfried, where undertaker A. S. Miller took charge. He dressed the remains and last evening shipped the body the home of the deceased's son at Mauch Chunk. Mr.

Sullivan was widely known throughout the Lehigh Valley. He a splendid type of citizen, educated and well read, with a character that was often pointed out as model. He commanded the instant respect cf everybody with whom he came in contact. He was a member of the Catholic church at Mauch Chunk; the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen of Mauch Chunk and the Knights of Columbia from the same place. His wife, who died nearly thirty-two years ago was nee Emma Litzen-berger.

The great June clothing sale which opened yesterday at the Will H. Koch store has scored a remarkable selling record. The buying started early and kept up steadily all through the day. At the special prices for suits as low as $5.95 up to $18-50, in all grades the sales showed a liberal output of merchandise. The demand for the $16.50 special suits however showed a decided increase over any other special price featured in this sweeping event.

Many new customers of the store made their first purchases in the Great June Clothing Sale and to quote expressions from these satisfied and gratified new patrons is reasonable evidence why the $16.50 special suit line has made such a strong hit. As one customer stated while looking through the line, "I have for the last few years paid from $22 to $25 for a suit each season. I bought of a certain advertised line from the habit of going to the same place and of course I was honored as one of the same dealer. I got a kind of in the store's high priced customers." Under $20 was considered beneath me and whenever I Insisted on seeing lower priced clothes, I was shown a few styles which wrere really too cheap looking for my use." This customer selected a grey cheviot silk mixed, alapaca lined suit at $16.50 and when he paid his bill declared' that he considered himself just $5.50 to the good. We are pleased at this instance and numerous similar cases where customers have really spoken straight out the appreciation of their extra value received in a purchase at our special prices.

The Great June Clothing Sale has just started but it has. started right, and our further invitation to the pub- lie is so tnorougniy encouragea wi i enthusiasm that we say to you come here If you want to see the finest clothing that was ever shown in Allentown for the money. And you need not pay $16.50 for a suit unless you have been accustomed to paying $22 to $25 here-to-fore. If you want to get good value at a low price we will be glad to show you at $5.95 to $9.75 suits that you will admit are worth from $10 to $15. One great line of fine worsteds and serges of all wool stock specially priced in this sale at $12.50 and $13.50 are not to be classed with any other offerings for the same money.

As mentioned before, this sale Is designed with the purpose of raising the high standard of value giving here established. The season for buying new clothes is well advanced. The choicest styles of the season are here and the Great June Clothing Sale offers the best values in the Lehigh Valley. WILL H. KOCH, Successor to Koch Person.

A committee of three consisting of the Messrs. E. .7. Spama v. Toh and William H.

Sechrist ere present anu onerea a resolution in which they ciont-u me aiu ur me Doara in securing union wages for the carpenters at work at the new high school building now being erected by Contractor George H. The board un-amiously voted that he building committee be instructed to attempt to effect an amicable adjustment relative to the wages, between Contractor Hardnef and the carpenters. Another resolution presented to the board asked to have a clause inserted into the plans and specifications for the new Mosser building in the Fourteenth Ward, whereby the contractor would be required to employ union carpenters and pay union wages. The building committee was instructed also in this case to have the required SCARES TOO FREQUENT Police Looking Into Chapter of Mysterious Events. The mystery of "The Diamond from the- Sky" has nothing on this case, said Roundsman "Buck" Boyle last evening when he returned after investigating an alleged incendiary fire at the home of Edwin J.

Miller, of No. 128 North Eleventh street, and two burglar alarms at the same address. Two cases of fire of supposed incendiary origin and three burglar alarms have come from the same address within the past month and as there has been plenty of evidence that the things claimed by the Miller family have actually taken place, the police are in quandary. Shortly before nine o'clock last evening, a curtain hanging on the rear porch of the Miller home caught fire in a mysterious manner. The merchant at Eleventh and Chestnut streets saw the flames from the rear of his establishment.

He ran to the Miller home and spread the alarm and in a short time the flames had been extin-guished. However, not before the flames had communicated with the wood work and within a short time the police would have had a stubborn blaze on their hands. The people at the house claim that when the fire was discovered they saw a human form run out through the rear yard and leap the fence. Continued on Page fourteen. HARD AND SOFT CRABS ALLEN STYLE.

The jury retired at noon, sent for their dinner at two o'clock and were still deliberating when court adjourned at 5 o'clock. They continued their deliberations at 7 o'clock last evening and will return a sealed verdict in court at nine o'clock this morning- It was understood last evening that they had agreed upon a verdict. Acting upon the suggestion of Judge Groman, the Grand Jury made a presentment to the court acting upon the recommendations made by the court. Judge Groman thanked the members of the Grany Jury for excellent work, complimenting them highly. In doing so.

Judge Groman explained that in Lehigh countv renairs to bridges for only a trivial amount cannot be made until notice is sent to the Highway Depart ment at Harrisburg, after which an inspector comes to the bridge, where the repairs are needed, and then recommends a plan, after which he leaves for Harrisburg. In about a month afterward, continued the court. a permit is issued by the State allow ing the work to go on. Bids, however, must be advertised for, causing further delay, when in the first place the commissioners could have performed the work better and cheaper. In their report the Grand Jurors commend highly the work of Steward William F.

Kuhns and Mrs. Kuhns, the matron of the County Home, and the report says their administration shows that "all of the minute details for cleanliness cannot be equalled the hall rooms, from cellar to garret are spic and span." A concrete floor is recommended in what was formerly the Insane Department. "This building," says the. report, "should be partitioned to accommodate some of the inmates when overcrowded. As many as four beds being in one small room this last win ter, some lying on mattresses.

The second recommendation calls for safety guards at once in the electric plant to conform with the State law. The third suggestion recommends the abolishing of the tramp house and its removal to another place for another purpose. Constables should be instructed to be on the lookout for tramps and have them brought before the proper authorities. "We found only one pensioned soldier at the Almshouse," continues the report, "and he is in bad headth. New applications for the admission of old soldiers are now refused." The fourth recommendation is for a concrete walk from the main road to the main building, not less than four feet in width, and a cement walk on the east side of the building, also a porch along the main building so the inmates can have open-air under protection.

Segregation of the sexes is also recommended, but this cannot be done because overcrowding does not per-2iit. "Extra precautions should be made," says the report, "against any damage by fire in the prothonotary and recorder of deeds' office. These two offices should be moved into the addition to the Hew court house not later than January 1, 1916. An expenditure for fireproofing these two offices is not warranted, but we urge that these offices be continually guarded against fire. We also recommend a change in the lighting system of these two offices.

The Grand Jurors also recommend that the county funds be distributed in various banking institutions and that interest be paid the county on daily balances; also that the sinking funds be invested in certificates of deposit so that they also earn interest. but discretion Is to be used as to which banks the county's monies are placed in. A refrigerator is recommended for the Lehigh county jail, "so that meats can be bought in larger quantities, which means lower prices and better quality and grade; also a block at tached where meat can be cut to meet the demands." John L. Cutshall was appointed a master examiner in the divorce case of Gertrude May Fisher against Charles R. Fisher.
