"MINER DOCTOR'S." First Aid to the Injured Crew in An thracite Region.' New York, May 7. The "miner doc tors," officially kribwn as the First Aid to the Injured Corps," have turned put a pronounced success in the an thracite region of northeast Pennsyl vdnia. One after another all tho large companies have adopted the sys tem, and it has grown steadily in im portance. - The First Aid Corps is composed of young men who work .in the mines. They are trained by a physician to give prompt treatment to fellow work ers who are Injured. Their silyill has prevented much suffering, and In many cases have saved lives. The first organization of the kind was started at the Jermyn Colliery of the Delaware & Hudson Company. Af ter that 'the Philadelnhia & Reading, the Lackawanna, the. Lehigh Valley, the Pennsylvania Coal Company, the Hillside Coal & Iron Company, the Lehigh & Wilfcesbarre, the Susquehan na, the Ontario & Western and other companies had first:aid corps and organized and trained. The company retains a physician to superintend its first aM work. He becomes a teacher and drill master, putting the squad through their paces at stated times. He shows them how to put splints on broken limbs, induce artificial respiration, stop . a flow or blood, dress burns, bandage wounds, and carry an injured miner gentry along steep gangways. They are atso tovioht where first-aid ends and a nhv. sician's work begins, so that they will not venture u Bummibier orugs. d then th Pro ora rrii . tests, for prizes, between the various nrst-aia corp m cumpauy. ucca sionally public exhibitions are held, where the men's families and friends may see them display their skill. These exhibitions cultivate a spirit of friendly rivalry and tend to keep up the standard 4of efficiency; GOOD ROADS AUTOS. Endurance Run in Virginia Thursday 35 to Take Part. Washington, May 3.

Three days will be required for the run 'Sixteen cups . have been offered as prizes for the run, which is under the auspices of the Richmond Times-Dis- patch. EXPERT INVESTIGATION (Continued from Pace 9.) Galveston, and reoortfcd that the auick dispatch of business and harmony in- operating the city government were remarkable, and among the most com-' mendable features of the commission form. The charter itself would seem to indicate that there would be little red tape',' for It does away with the cumbrousness and complexity found in most charters. Galveston has not introduced any of the newer features the iniative, referendum and recall, wnich so many cities are now trying. It will take time to determine whether it is safe to concentrate so much pow er in the hands f a few without pro viding some of the features giving the people more direct control over their affairs. 11,000 MINERS RETURN.
