Electricity has been brought into play at the hospital in all the different ways in which it can te used. The contract, therefore, is a most important one. Mr. Edwards began work at the hospital on April 1, 3014, and his men have been continuously employed there from that time until the present. the pile of lumber.

He will leave for Mt.

Gretna Sunday. Just to what extent Company is entitled to credit will be appreciated when it is explained that it is not a rare thing for companies of the National Guard to be unrepresented at the State Rifle matches. The local Guardsmen, however, rank high as marksmen, and there is scarcely a year but that two or more of them find a place on the teams at Mt. Gretna. The record of Corporal Wintersteen was such as to entitle him to a place on the senior team.

Ordinarily it might have ended there but they happened to need a marksman who could make good on the junior team this year and they instinctively turned to Company where good marksmen abound. Sergeant Hendricks was recommended, which is how it happens that he is one of the contestants at the State Rifle, Match this week. If his score should be sufficiently high he will be promoted to the senior team. Any one on that team, who makes a score sufficiently high will get on the Brigade ens was smimeu aim ueaieneu aim i 'and that, if they did not, they would George Hartman, a caller at the have to pay the penalty.

19. Pittston has been visited by an epidemic of typhoid fever and the discovery of twenty cases in the past few days has caused the state to send agent J. H. Sullivan here to aid in fighting the disease. approximately a thousand miles of wire have been used up in wiring the several buildings.

The wires are all laid in conduits, some of which contain as many as eighty wires. The Signal System Just at present Mr. Edwards is installing the signal system, which is by no means the least remarkable feature of the thoroughly modem equipment that is being installed at the hospital. This system keeps everyone about the institution on the job and insures prompt and careful attention to the patients. At each bed is an extension cord and a push button.

When a patient wants the nurse he or she presses the button, which lights a lamp In the nurses' duty room, ringing a buzzer at the same time. It also lights a lamp over the hall door, indicating in which room the nurse is needed. Inside the room it lights a lamp indicating the bed containing the patient, who turned in the call. More than this, when the patient pressed the button a light shows in the superintendent's room indicating the number of the bed containing the patient who called for the nurse. AVhen the patient has been went downward, tearing off weatherboards and hurling one window from the attic.

In one of the downstairs rooms of the house sat John and Samuel Clemens, and their mother, as well as George Hartman, a caller. The force of the bolt was almost spent when it reached the room in which they were seated, and no damage was done to the room itself. The bolt hit John Clemens and cut serve just how the speed limit was being observed. Street Marked Off One thing that the automobilists might not have observed was that Mill street had been marked off in 100 yard sections and the limit of seconds carefully figured out in which the automobilists would have to pass in order to avoid violating the law.

Thus the nurses' movements are at all times under the superintendent's eye, and he is in a position to know whether or not the patients are receiving prompt attention and just how much time is given to them.

There is also an emergency button, which is used to call -assistance when a patient suddenly becomes critical or something else occurs that makes it necessary to get into communication with the office quickly. All the nurse has to do is to press a button, when a red light shows in the superintendent's office and outside of the door noon Chief-of-Police Mincemoyer lodged, information before Justice of the Peace Oglesby against nine persons charging them with operating a motor-vehicle on Mill street at a rate of speed greater than a mile in 4 minutes. At the same time Robert Vincent, the special officer, made 1n- sciousness, Samuel Clemens was unable to hear even the loudest noise, but then his hearing came back to him almost as suddenly as it left. Mrs. Clemens suffered only from shock and slight bruises, while neither of the other two were injured in the least about the body or feet, even though the shoes were ripped off.
