EMPLOYES' BULLETIN Pennsy Pouts Notices of Offences and Punishments.

The Pennsylvania has inaugurated a plan of giving publicity to cases of discipline by posting an employes' bulletin boards statements of offences and punishments administered. In the case of an employe whose service is not what it should be, he is brought to the superintendent's office, his attention is called to his record and he Is notified that marked Improvement must be shown. If the employe Intimates that he is doing the best he can his attention Is called to the fact that the position carries with It certain responsibilities, and that if his best is not equal to those responsibilities he will be dismissed from the service. It is borne In mind that discipline Is not administered for the purpose of Inflicting punishment on the offender, but to call his attention and that of others to the fact that rules and regulations must be observed. By far the most drastic punishment Is meted out to thoe who through negligence or violation of rules, bring about a situation which may endanger the lives of employes or patrons of the railroad, although no injury or damage may actually occur.

An employe who disregarded a signal in the danger position was suspended 42 days; another was suspended 30 days for carelessness in not attending to his duties, resulting In damage to equipment. Numerous firemen who, by careless firing of engines, burned excessive coal and caused unnecessary smoke, were suspended for two days.

Lancaster wanted to divide up the games this week, one at Lancaster and the other In Harrisburg, but no one in authority was consulted and both games will be played at Lancaster.

This morning Pitcher Hardy, of the Baltimore Eastern League team, reported to Manager Heckert and pitched against Reading this afternoon. Krause will be on the mound to morrow. Hardy says he will make good. That the stories about his work were not correct. He had pitched fifteen games and won ten.

He is a left hander and a good man with the stick. Bridges was sold to Trenton and reported to Manager Carney to day. KITS FOR THE FANS Lancaster may play here Wednesday or Thursday. Half holiday next Friday. It Is hoped there wil be no badedncedt.

Joe is a handy man. Eddie Zimmerman says he may have been doing things, but the best is to come. Good. Well, give the boys a right royal welcome home next Friday. George Washington Heckert is making good and don't any one doubt it, either.

The knockesr are once more going to sleep. Do not worry about the many stories. Wait until Manager Heckert talks. There is another pitcher headed this way. Krause is looming up In fine style.

He likes to work. He fieMs and hits. Litschl at short never cares about errors. He gets many away from home he is not entitled to. The little fellow goes after everything.

McGilvroy is working hard to keep at the ton of the league as a hitter. His fielding would be perfect but for the fact that a scorer in anotner town wanted a hit for a pet player. Brldcres celebrated his return with a victory. The big fellow has the goods. Big rellow Hueisman ne.ids faster than any man his size and weight in the league.

William H. Taft, Republican nominee for the Presidency, having completed his speech of acceptance, in which he will promise to uphold the policies of President Roosevelt if elected to office, made this formal announcement here: "The Republican National Committee will accept no contributions of any character from corporations." Mr. Taft had been discussing the federal statute of 1907, which prohibits the acceptance of contributions from corporations for use in the choice of Presidential electors. The question of whether the act was constitutional in its interference with the functions of a state had been raised. Mr.

Taft said there was in his mind some question about it. Then he added the statement which places the campaign of 1908 at the outset upon a basis differing from those with which the people of the United States have been familiar. Fear has been expressed by some of the older politicians who have visited Hot Springs that the publicity plan adopted will greatly reduce the amount of funds placed at the disposal of the campaign managers. This apparently has no terror for Mr. Taft.

An investigation of the principal wage working occupations in 4169 establishments, representing the principal manufacturing and mechanical industries of the country, made by the Bureau of Labor of the Bureau of Commerce and Labor, showed that the average wages per hour in 1907 were 3.7 per cent, higher than in 1906; the regular hours of labor per week were 0.4 per cent, lower than in 1906 and the number of employes in the establishments investigated was 1 per cent, greater than in 1906. The average price of food in 1907 was also higher than in any other year of the eighteen year period, 1890 to 1907. The average price of thirty principal articles, weighted according to family consumption of the various articles, was 20.6 per cent, higher in 1907 than the average price for the ten.

years from 1890 to 1899. Compared with the average for the same ten year period, the purchasing power of an hour's wages in 1907 was 6.8 per cent, greater. EXOLA DEDICATION'. Methodist Episcopal Church Debt Paid by Three Collections. The Enola Methodist Episcopal Church was dedicated and the Methodist opening was a great day indeed.

Two years ago Rev. E. V. Brown met with a handful of men, women and children In the school house and formed a Methodist Episcopal organization. Sixteen months ago Rev.

W. W. Banks, in his first year from college, was sent to the new charge of Enola and West Falrvlew. Principally in the last year his work has largely been organizing and collecting for the new church. On Sunday $2,400 was needed to complete the payment of $6,600, the entire cost.

President Reed, of Dickinson College, was at the helm, and by noon half was provided for. Rev. Mr. Hart, of Fifth Street, preached at 3 P. and more money flowed In.

In the evening Dr. Reed again preached one of his grand sermons, "By Kindness," and these progressive men and women with many visiting friends raised the entire balance, even exceeding the $2,400. A band of twelve male singers furnished fine music morning and afternoon, and the Enola choir was assisted by singers from West Fairview. Mr. Smith, of the Enola Realty Company, played the cornet with the choir, and solos were sung by Miss Dick, of Marysvllle, and William Hoover, of West Fairview.

Others, including Prof. Olin Miller, of Harrisburg, will sing during this week at preaching services by Rev. Mr. Gardner, United Brethren Church; Rev. Mr.

Wolgemuth, Lutheran; Rev. Mr. Long, of Littles town, and Rev. Mr. Deacon, of Mt.

Joy. Rev. Mr. Selders, of the home church, and Secretary Weeks, of Enola Y. M.

C. will conduct the first prayer meeting on Wednesday evening. The Enola Methodists are to be congratulated on their great achievement, and Rev. Mr. Banks has done a work here that cannot be too highly commended.
