,'lontour American FRANK C. ANGLE, Proprietor. Danville, Pa., Feb. 1910. J AIiULAR PHENOMENON W. T. Suter, proprietor of Sunnysiue farm, tias made a discovery, which he is inclined to believe has a scientific value. It is to the effect that one of the streams of his farm, previously of unquestioned purity,has suddenly gone bad, developing an offensive taste and odor that rivals the much complained of river water. The stream comes out of the heart of the hills, and nowhere along its course is there anything to contami nate it. Mr. Suter lias always pointed to the stream with pardonable pride as one of his most valued possessions—a source of water whose purity was be yond question. JHis surprise and dismay can easily be imagined, therefore, when a short time ago the stream became offensive, the water assuming a taste suggestive of oil or chemicals, precisely as is the case with river water. The question suggests itself whether the cause,of the pollution may not lie in some widespread and general cause, not understood, which for some time past lias brought about a similar condition—so hard to account for—in the river, and perhaps in other water. The question also suggests itself wheth er the epidemic of intestinal disorders so widely prevailing at present may not in some way bo related to the same cause. MAY INVITE CONFERENCE There is a possibility that the Cen tral Pennsylvania conference of the Methodist Episcopal church will he invited to meet at Blooinsburg next year, the matter having been placed in the hands of a committee which will report to the fourth quarterly conference of the Bloomsburg church. It has been more than thirty years since Bloomsburg has entertained the conference and there is a desire among a number of the members in that town to act as hosts again. DEATH OF MRS.

The above from W. C. Ornstein, Green Bay, Wis , duplicates the experience of thousands of other users of Foley's Honey and Tar. It cures coughs, colds and croup, and prevents bronchitis and pneumonia. For sale by Paules & Co. Pharmacy. DANVILLE AS PATTERN The base ball fever is epidemic iu Berwick, au.l what augurs best for the national sport in that town this summer is the fact that the most in fluential men in the town have the malady worst. Several weeks ago Berwick formed irn athletic association to promote base ball during tlio coming summer and after looking around for a good plan to use as » basis of operations decided that Danville had just about as good a working organization as was in sight. Accordingly on Sunday a committee composed of John N. Har ry, president ; Dr. Edward Davis and Ralph Laubach, came to this city and had an interview with Manager Sim on K. Hoffman, who gave them all the gooil advice at his command. It is the intention in Berwick to form a stock company and buy a plot of ground which will be turned into a permanent base ball field. The organ ization will likely be made permanent by incorporation under the laws of the State, as has|been done here. For the remainder of their program—next sunw y r will tell.

RIFLE PRACTICE Every oflicer and enlisted man iu the National Guard of Pennsylvania should cut this out and paste it up where he can see it. Radical changes were made at the recent meeting of the State Board for the Promotion of Rifle Practice, at its recent meeting at llarrisbnrg, particularly in rapid tire and skiiimshiug. This applies to qualifying as marksman and to the state matches as well. A new target is also provided. The new rules follow: Instead of the rapid fire being on a bulls-eye target, Target "D"' will be substituted for Target "A". Target "D''carries the figure of a man prone and a shot in the figure will count five, a shot below the figure four, and others :i and 2. Tha competitors will be lined up and tire by odd and even numbers, the fornie.t firing first. The pieces will be loaded and when all are ready a signal will bo given and the targets will rise and remain in posi tion for 200 seconds, and then disap [ pear. As the targets come up the com- I petitors will sink to the ground, with : one knee on the giound and an eblow on the other knee. The five shots must be fired or otherwise each unexpended ! cartridge will count as a miss, and firing may be continued from the time the target appears until it disappears. Any competitor having a defective cartridge, a disabled piece or more than five hits on his target must fire again. Only "battle-sights" may be used in rapid fire. A similar change has been made in the rules for the skirmish runs. The skirimshers will be assembled at a point more than six hundred yards from the targets. The magazines will be filled and one cartridge loaded therefrom. Firing will begin at fiOO yards and the targets will be run up and continue in sight for thirty sec onds, during which two shots are fir ' i'd, the competitor firing at will. The i targets will then be withdrawn and tin- competitors advanced to 500 yard line aud two more shots will be fired, j the targets appearing aud disappearing ' as before. Three shots will he tired at 1 the -100 yard and :i.">o yard firing point. | and at the 800 and 200 yard points live i shots are to be fired. At all ranges ex cept COO yards the battle-sights will I be used. j Battle sights means that the sight leaf must be laid down and not touch ed after it. is set for 500 yards. Entertained on R. F.

BRITON Miss Kline, a nurse from the Phil ippine Islands, is a guest at the home of Sam A. McCoy, Church street. Miss Kline, who arrived in the United States several months ago, reached Danville on Thursday. She has had an extended experience as a nurse in the Philippines and has tiav eled around the world. What makes her visit of especial in terest to our readers, however, is the fact that for three years past in her work she has been associated with Mrs. Lizzie Brinton, formerly of Dan ville, in the Union Mission hospital at lloilo, Island of Panay. Two chur ches —the Baptist and Presbyterian are represented in tlie hospital, Miss Kline being the Baptist nurse and Mrs. Brinton the Presbyterian nurse. The visitor brings a very favorable report from Mrs. Brinton, who at the time of Miss Kline's departure was in the enjoyment of good health and was contented and happy in the pur suit of her chosen calling. Mrs. Brin tou's last visit home occurred about four years ago. Miss Kline is a native of Pennsyl vania; she has a sister at Jersey Shore and other relatives in this and neigh boring states. Her home, however, as she regards it, is in the Union Mis sion Hospital at lloilo, the scene of her chosen labors. She went to the Philippine Islands with the army eleven years ago and ar rived there one month after hostili ties broke out. Nine of the eleven years intervening were spent in uur -1 sing. Before becoming nurse in the Union Mission hospital she was in the civil hospital at Manila. Miss Kline 011 returning to the States on her present visit jcame by the way of the Indian ocean and the Suez canal. She has crossed the Pacific ocean five times in her life. One of the circum stances, however, of which slie as a woman may be justly proud is that unaccompanied she has traveled en tirely around the world. Four Eclipses in 1910.

BENEFICIARIES ON THE STAND The taking of testimony in the Raup will contest was resumed Friday morning before Judge Evans, Associ ates Bloe and Welliver being also on the bench. The whole day was occupied with the taking of testimony. It was not until nearly dark last evening, after the hearing had oxteuded over four days, that the last witness was heard. All persons that had been subpoenaed were excused froirt further attendance. In its way the case is the most im portant that lias l>eeu before court for some time. Upwards of seventy-five witnesses taking in both sides, were examined. Additional interest was injected in to the case Friday by calling to the stand Mrs. Johanna Raup, widow of Lafayette Raup, along with her two daughters, Zoa Ethel and Eliza Gert rude Savidge, all beneficiaries of the will. Mrs. Raup denied that she had at | any time attempted to control her hus- j band's mind. She knew nothing of the| making of the will until they drove to j 'Squire Reed's.

When she accompanied ! her husband on his usual trips to town I she said it was not for the purpose of j influencing him in any way, but be | cause he insisted upon her going along. \ While living on the farm with Mr. I Rail]), she said, she did all kinds of j labor,often working in the fields. Her j testimony involved a general denial of the points urged against her by wit | nesses for the contestant. She was 1 emphatic that she did not have any- I tiling to do with the dictation of the ' will; also that she did not ask anyone J to speak to Mr. Raup on the subject, j The testimony of the two daughters | corroborated that of their mother, j The case will next lie argued, after i which it will be up to the court to de ! oido whether or not an issue shall be I framed.

A large number of witnesses oil both sides were examined. The matter was not disposed of until the close of the ses sion of court Friday evening. His Honor Judge Evans handed down a decision in the matter as fol lows: "And, now, January 28, 1910, after hearing had application refused for I the reason that the applicant, M.

Houghton for tavern license at Exchange, Anthony township, Mon tour county: "The testimony offered at the hear ing in this case is conclusive that the place desired to be licensed is neces sary for the accommodation of the public. The testimony offered by the remonstrants was not sufficient to show that the applicant was not of a good moral character and, failing in this, thejnecessity of the public should be considered and the license granted as prayed for. lam for these reasons in favor of granting this license.
