Spring Clean-Up None of Us Business and May Not Take Charge of Work HOLD ANOTHER MEETlllG Although Altoona's new planning commission has been invited to charge of the very considerable task of conducting the spring clean-up campaign this year, and has been considering the matter for the past week, it is just possible that the invitation will not be accepted. At a special meeting of the body, held at city hall yesterday afternoon, the advisability of managing the campaign as the first job of the planners, was discussed at much length, but on the grounds that this work, strictly speaking, is none of com mission business, the members of tne new body were reluctant to take any definite action in the matter. Another meeting for the purpose of giving the matter further consideration, Will be held In the council chamber tomorrow evening. At yesterday's meeting George H. Mosser, manager of the Chamber of Commerce, spoke on the campaign as handled by the commerce body last year, working in conjunction with the city health department, and explained that due to the fact that the organization has several matters of importance on hand this, spring, it cannot take charge of the work, but volunteers to assist.

in every way possi ble. Health Officer T. G. Herbert ad dressed the commission and explaining that the ideal manner of handling the proposition would be for the task to be taken over by the city, stated that there is no legislation or funds to cover the work, as the city ordi nance provides only for the removal of decaying animal and vegetable mat ters which are regarded as being a menace to health. He further stated that the act of assembly will not allow the municipality to take a stand whereby property owners can ne forced to remove rubbish unless it is a menace to the health of those living in the community.

The work of organizing the boys in the clean-up campaign; of arranging for a system for covering the whole city in a single day, and providing for the removal of all the refuse collected is a big task, as discovered by those in charge of the work last spring, and it seems that not one of tie organizations Interested iB willing to assume the responsibility of taking charge this year. While it was pointed out in the dis cussion that the work; if it could be carried off successfully, would be quite an advertisement for the new commission and would bring it before the public as a factor for the better ing of the community, several mem bers of the new body also took the view that in failing either complete ly or in part with the venture, the ef fect would be Just the reverse. Paul Kreuzpointner and C. C. Bangs, representing the playground assocla tions of this city, were present at the meeting and offered' the services of their respective organizations to the commission providing that it sees fit to take up the work.

FLURRY AT CITY HALL Ma iyor Rhodes Didn't Like Fines for Drunkenness Heauced Mayor Charles E. Rhodes on arriv ing at city hall yesterday morning discovered that Commissioner Shelley In presiding in police court on Saturday had reduced the fine for drunk enness. He tacked fines of $2.80 on prisoners where Mayor Rhodes would have fined them $3, without imposing eighty cents costs. He began a little Investigation and had a consultation with Commissioner Shelley on the subject and after they had talked the thing over the latter issued the following On Saturday, April 15, Mayor Rhodes being out of the city, I was called upon for the first time to act as cemmitting magistrate of police court, and among the cases tried were several of the "ordinary drunk" variety. Being wholly inexperienced in police court practice and not being familiar with the schedule of fines, I assumed the responsibility of assessing a fine of $2.80 on those charged with being drunk.

I have since learned that Mayor Rhodes levies a fine of $3 in such cases and I regret exceedingly that, owing to my unfamiliarity with the custom in vogue, I apparently "cut rates." It was certainly not my intention to apparently differ from Mayor Rhodes as to the amount of the fines which are assessed in such cases. IRA J. SHELLEY. Robbers Visit Store. The Jewelry repair shop of L.

W. Zerby, located at 807 Twelfth street, was visited by robbers some time during the early hours of yesterday morning. They gained an entrance to the shop by breaking a rear window.

David M. Fonner, a son of the Greenwood man, had driven the equine to the appointed place and left it tied there. A few minutes after the sen departed for the EaBt Altoona shops to begin his night's work, the horse became frightened and bolted. It turned and dashed rapidly toward the city and demolished the vehicle against' a pole, and then continued up Sixth avenue. The harness was in shreds and the animal was slightly injured in the fall, when it was caught.

Fonner and his son used the horse for many years, the former taking it home after the son had driven to work, and it was regarded as an unusually docile and faithful animal until last evening, when the Fon-ners' transportation problem temporarily required a new solution.

Snyder, of the Sixth compensation dis trice, conducted a hearing at Johns town yesterday morning In one of the oddest cases occurring as yet in this district.

The case was that of John F. Moore, who claimed compensation on the ground that over-exertion while per forming his duties in the employ of the valley Smokeless. Coal company, aggravated a from which he had been suffering; to such an- ex 'tent that he was incapacitated for further labor. The Maryland Cas ualty company, as defendant; was represented by Peter A. Wozniak, of rne ruispurg ciaim aivision.

Moore testified that since Jast Oc tober a small lump had appeared on the right side of his abdomen. He consulted a doctor, who diagnosed the case as one of rupture and ad vised him to have an operation per formed, but as the hernia not painful and did not annoy him in his work, he neglected to do this. In February, while endeavoring to lift a heavy coal car back on the rails the claimant is alleged to have hurt himself so seriously that the hernia Increased, rapidly, in size and In a short itme prevented him from at labors. The physician corroborated this testimony' but added that while the rupture probably was aggravated by the strain, it was not necessarily so. Clayton C.

Dovey, general manager of the coal company, testified that no official report of Moore's disability had reached binKor any other official of the company and the only knowledge he had of the affair was the result of a general rumor among the employes that Moore "was ruptured." The miner's wages were a little over $80 a month, and as under the law, he would be entiled to fifty per cent, or this amount in compensation, in case he receives a ravorable decision he will receive about $10 per week. W. W. Henry, insurance adjuster in the district and secretary to Mr. Snyder, was present and assisted at me nearing.

Decision was reserved but will be given within four days. Free Air Station. W. D. Calvert, the autnmnhlla Hra Jobber at 1420 Twelfth avenue has installed a new free air nlnnt fnr tho use of the motor public.
