Moving picture lovers were ex tremely disappointed last night, when they arrived at the local moving picture theatres and found a small piece of pasteboard in front of the darken ed theatres with the Inscription thereupon "Closed on account of the non arrival of films." On account of the Wabash train being late on which the films are transferred from Wabash to this city, they were received too late to start the shows. Hence the dismay of the picture lovers.

IICHIT HELKER II FOIII CIDREII jgllTlliED 111 CITY Family Again Stricken with Scarlet Fever Killen Home Quarantined as Daughter la HI Dr. Fry Sends Out Letter of Warning to warren. Monday while Mrs. Vincent Welker and her four children, Fred, Alma, Hershell and Helen, were visiting at the home of their mother and grand mother, Mrs. Mary Welker of Sala monle avenue, the baby suddenly became 111 with scarlet fever and a quarantine has been established, shutting the family into the house.

Mrs. Welker, the grandmother, makes her living by taking In sewing and Vincent Welker works by the day at Majenlca, so that the quarantine proves quite hard on the family. Another rather tragic feature of the quarantine is that only two weeks ago the Vincent Welker family were released from quarantine at their home near Majenlca. One child was til at that time, having Its second at tack of the fever. Only a year before that another child had the malady and for a time was in an extremely serious condition.

This latest affliction comes close upon the heels of a lot of misfortune. Mrs. Welker's son works at the shoe factory, and ke has been barred from his home. He will seek lodging elsewhere, and his wages will be almost entirely consumed for the next five or six weeks in paying his board and lodging somewhere else and in supplying the needs of the stricken faml Becauae other children in the household have contracted the disease more than once, the attending physi cian does not have the assurance that) they will be Immune this time With' the whole family stricken, and nobody but the grandmother and the County Surveyor Vernon Making Preparations. MUST ADHERE TO PLANS No Cheap Work Will Be Tolerated Surveyor Favors Luten Trass for Support.

Early this spring the work of building new roads, bridges, arches and flat tops will start all over the county. The commissioners will likely let some contracts at their April meeting and possibly some may come in March. Indications are that this will be a heavy season In this regard. County Surveyor J. B.

Vernon, who will probably draw up the specifications on most of the contracts and who will likely be superintendent of several Jobs, has Indicated clearly at the beginning of the season that so far aa he is concerned nothing but absolute adherence to specifications will be tolerated this season. In other counties and at times In Huntington contractors have bid in bridges at ridiculously low figures, knowing that they could only make money by falling to live up to the provisions of the contract The re sult always is Inferior work. Mr. Vernon says that none of that kind of stuff will go this year If he can help it He will use especial care to draw up the specifications complete In the minutest detail. He had considerable experience In concrete work' and was last summer the superintendent of the Huntington Union township line bridge, the best in the county.

This gives him a com plete knowledge of concrete construction and he will insist In his instructions and specifications being carried out to the minutest detail. Mr. Vernon during the construction of the township line bridge became familiar with the Luten truss princi ple of support for concrete arches and flat tops. This is used exclusively, by the National Concrete company and their trusses for flat tops are furnished cheaper than the beams usually ordered in the small bridges. It is quite possible that Mr.

Vernon will look with favor on the Luten construction, at least as, an alternate plan for arches and, flat tops In the county. MRS. WICZER'S CASE NOT ON CALENDAR It seems that Mrs. Julius Wiczer has been left from the list of people who are to have Justice meted out to them in the present term of court While she has been running her face for a board bill at one of the local mother in the house, conditions can better be imagined than described. Neighbors have taken it upon themselves to see that the needs of the Welkers are carefully looked after.

Several have telephones and they are keeping the household in communication with the outside world. KILLENS QUARANTINED. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Killen of Lancaster township have been quarantined pending a diagnosis of the illness of their little daughter.

A Warren physician thinks that the baby has scarlet fever. This case Is not especially severe. LETTER OF WARNING. In a letter Tuesday to Dr. Claude Black of Warren Dr.

C. W. Fry, county health commissioner, issued a warning to the people of Warren that they may be the next spot hit by an epidemic of scarlet fever. He pointed to the illness of one child in the Sharp family near that town and said that the illness there might mean contagion from other sources. The disease has been held in contempt by many of the Warren citizens because they have had no sieges of it.

Dr. Fry calls attention to the fact that many of the cases called "walking cases" were really more dangerous to the general public than the serious ones. When one is seriously ill with a contagious disease there Is no danger of outside Interference by any parties. The "walking caseB" are not serious and they may spread the disease far and wide without any knowledge of who Is meantime Mrs. Julius Is pawing around asking everybody who comes her way when her trial is to be.

She seemingly gets no satisfaction from this source but she might be referred to the court calendar which falls to hold her name. And while she Is waiting so patiently Julius is working to earn more money for more trips to Oil City where he will Boon conduct a party of homeseekers. MONEY BACK. Oa That Basis Bradley 'Bros.
