become fretted at accidents that can
not be anticipated or prevented, but
whe i these “accidents” occur at such
unfortunate times, a remedy should
be gotten up and applied. For in-

when there were gatherings at the
different churches, the light went out
and left the people to depend upon the
gas jets. This makes against the
electric light plant and causes the
citizens to delay surrending the gas,
which can be depended upon to give
