OLD TIMERS ATJHAMOKIN The game of base ball between the Old Timers and Shamokin at Edge wood Park on Fourth of July attract ed one of the largest crowds that was ever seen at that resort.

HcCload pitched a very effective game in the morning, but Skoskie, who pitch ed the afternoon game for Danville, had an off day and his usually ettoot ive curves failed to deoeive tho Sha mokin battery, as they seemed to hit him at will.

It may not be long until Pennsyl vania will have a canal problom on its hands, too. It is quito certain that the next general assembly will name a commission to investigate and report remedies for the destrootivo spring and fall floods along the Susquehanna. Some experts believe that tho statu will never be wholly rid of these per iodical infliotions nntil a gigantio pro jeet of engineering shall have cleaned the bed ot the river at low tide, con structed a series of dams to store the ■orplas water in times of freshet and provided a channel navigable for small boats at least as far ap as Sunbury. , Throe years ago an officer of the United States army engineering corps made a tour of the rivor from Harris burg down to Havre de Grace and col lected data for an estimato of the oost of such an undertaking. In round numbers, his estimate contemplates 1100,000,000, for which sum he calcu lates that boats with 10-foot draft oould be enabled to ply the whole length of tho Susquehanna from the Chesapeake to the junction of the north aud west branches. It is to be regretted that an estimate WAH not al so made of tjie cost of establishing navigation to Wilkesbarre. The solu tion of flood damages would requiro quite as maoh attention to this part of the river coarse as to the part survey ed by the army enginoer. It was recently announood in a de* ■patch from York, published in the Philadelphia Record, that the secre tary of the York merchants' associa tion would soon oall a meeting of busi ness men to give consideration to the proposition of approaching the legis latures of Pennsylvania and Maryland on the sabjeot of making the Sußque hanna bavigable. It the scheme as outlined la feasible at a oost of SIOO,- 000,000, ten years' saving of flood dam ages would pay for it, to say nothing of the neneflts accruing from river navigation. David Buokel's Bad Injur;. David Haokel, who is employed by John Jaoobs' Sons, mot with an ao oideut on Monday, as the result of whloh he will probably lose one or more of hiß Angers. He was assisting to make ice cream. The motive power for this is furnish ed by a water motor. Mr. Ruckel was in the aot of removing an accumula tion of ioe from the cogs on the top of the freezer, when he slipped and hia left hand was caught in the rapid ly revolving wheels. In an instant bis little finger, his ring linger und even the one next were shockingly mangled. Dr. Stock was called who dressed the injury, after wiiioli Mr. Rnakel was taken to his home on Wost Mahon ing street. The injured man was seen yesterday. He was resting fairly easi ly. There seemed to bo little hope, 110 ■aid, ot saving the little finger, al thongh he had deferred amputation up to that time. He had hopes of saving the ring finger and the larger finger next to it. Funeral of Mrs. Lynn. Mrs. Oelia Lynn, whose death oc curred on Wednesday, was buried on Saturday afternoon. Rev. Joliu Sher man oonduoted the servioes. The pall bearers were as follows: Israel Dimmiok, William Aten, Ar thur Lloyd, Edward Marshall, Oharles Marshall, Olyde Swank. The following persons were present from out of town : James Horning, Adam Landau and wife, John Landau, Mr. and Mrs. Sliuffstall, Mrs. Foust, Mrs. D, H. Eyer, Mrs. William Bos ton of Snnbury ; Mr. and Mrs. Myers of Jersey Shore. Next Fourth of July it is likely some additional features will be oat out. BOSTON PREPARING FORVpfiANS Members of the Graud Army, who intend going to Boatou to attend the next annual encampment will bo in terested to know what is to be tar nished in the way of entertainment. Many of.them will ba most interested in the great parade which is to be Tuesday. Many, oapeoially.tliqmd from the interior, will be interested in the squadron ot battleships whioh the Secretary of the Navy lias promit'td shall be ordered to Boston daring Grand Army week. One of the unique features will be a river channel at Walthani, on the Charles. With the Charles River and its south bank as the stage, and tha north bank as the auditorium, there is booked to be produoed on the night of Wednesday, August 17th,the grand est spectacle over seen in the hiitory of river carnivals. There will ibe no curtain save the shades .of night, and these will be neoessary to bring out the effects. There will be a real moon and real water. The scenery, will oom priso real grasß, trees and houses. Bril liancy will be bronght out by a gigan tic pyrotechnio display. The dicta tors will come from all parttfof the country. It is estimated that; the au dience will consist of at lent *2oo,ooo people. Added to this general effeot will be the illuminations along the shore,bat teries between skyrockets and 'search lights,and the unlqaa or grotesque de tails of some ot the boat deaorations. Four thousand canoes will dbt this two mile course. y, It is the intention of tho entertain ment committee to provide free trans portation, between Boston and Wal tham, to all the representatives and delegates of the G. A. R., as well as the distinguished guests of the allied organizations. Tho soene of the oar nival is but a short ride on tho- steam cars,or if one perfers the eleotrio oars, it furnishes one of tho most beautiful trolley rides out of Boston. Residents along the south bank of the river are already planning their decorations and illuminations, and a spirited rivalry will ensue to see who shall do the most for the old soldier visitors. The grandest chorua ever heard in the United States will bo heard on that night, when 200,000 spectators join In one mighty burst of song to the tune of America. That all may he in time, Bandmaster John M. Flock ton, of the world famous American Walthani Watch Company band, 'will use as a baton a lighted torch. Then with the full brass band, as an Accom paniment will the multitude join in the inspiring song. ( if A unique feature of tile carnival will bo the finale. Plans are being mado so that eaoh boat will be suppli ed with red tire. All possible places of vantage along both banks will he similarly supplied. A signal will bo given by a gun, aud the six miles of red fire, three lines of two miles each, will be simultaneously ignited. In such a blaze of glory will the old vet erans and other visitors soe the close of an unrivalled speotacle. ' Planning Summer Trips. At this season of the year, the get away idea is prominent in every one's thoughts and all those expooting to have a week or more vacation during the summer are arranging (or their trip. • There is no doubt that the oliange ot scenery,air, eto. if only for one week, is very advantageous to both mind and body, and the greater the change the better the improvement. But in considering atrip of this kind almost as important a question as " Where to Go," is "How. to Go"and up to date travelers who are posted mostly try to arrange their trips so that they can do the most part of their travelling by the Reading System. The new summer soliedule of the Koading System, shows a number of swift, well-equipped Express Trains leaving at frequent convenient inter vals, the Reading Terminal, Philadel phia for the mountains or fertile farm ing lands of Ooutral Pennsylvania,and from Chestnut Street or South Street Ferries for the seashore and points in Southern New Jersey. For those unfortunates who are pre vented by business or home nocessity from sponding even a week away, the Reading System offers special con venient one day trips in'every direc tion. Travellers destined to the' White Mountains or other New England Points will find the Hourly . Traius to aud from New York, loaving both terminals Every Hour—Ou the hour a special convenience. Old Timer Keseryes Defeated. Tho Old Timer Reserves aud the team from Oatawissa played a very in teresting game or base ball at De- Witt's Park ou the afternoon of Fourth of July, before a large and enthusi astic crowd. Both teams seemed de termined to win out and for a short time it looked as though the Reserves would succeed. But all hopes were blasted by a streak of good batting bv Oatawissa, sooriug six runs in two in nings, which gave them a lead which tho Reserves were unable to over come. Bibby of Oatawissa shows rornark able promise and is regarded as a com ing pitolier. With the exoeption of two innings Oatawisa was unable to solve Welliver's slow curves. Ou the whole the game was interesting from start to finish and from the mauy ex cellent plays made it is plain that in tho future as in tho past Danville shall havo a team that will oompare favor ably with those of any of the sur rounding towns. The score was seveu to five in favor of Oatawissa. Toe Urußhed. Lewis H. Gernert, West Mahoning street, a puddlers' helper at the Read ing Works, had a toe ot his right foot very badly orushed ou Saturday morn ing by a piece of pig iroi* falling up on it. Dr. Harpul gavo him surgical attention. It will be several days before tho young man will be able to work. EURIED UNDER THE WRECK Harry Harding of Sunhary, formerly of Dauville was killed in a freight wreck at Lofty Tuesday morniua. The unfortunate man left this city about two years ago and is well kuowu about Dauville. The train wrecked is known as the Pottsvillo Local and left Sunhury Tuesday morning at 2:15 o'clock, on a trip to Pottsvillo. Up until 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon the railroad offici als had received only a meagre report of the wreck, owing to tho accident on the branch df the Lehigh Valley railroad running into Pottsvillo. A telephone message rocoived from Ma hanoy City states that when the train was nenring Lofty the air was applied and due to some cause unknown at tho present time, six cars were piled up in a wrecked mass ai;d Brakbinan Harding was buried uudornoath the wreckage and instantly killed. An un known man who was stealing a tide received fatal injuries and will likely die. Tho wreck oraurred ahont B:4fi o'olouk Tuesday morning. The train was in chargo of Kugineer William McCloud, also formorly of Danville, aud Con ductor J. R. Frederick. It was w' h considerable difficulty that Hardiurf body was removed from the wreck. The unfortunnat.e brakoman had been in the employ of the Pennsyvlania Railroad company since April 10,1901, and was agixl 28 years. A sad incident in conoction with tho death of Hardiug is tho tact that he was married about eight months ago and the profound sympathy of tho entire community goes out to the widow in this the hour of her deep bereavement. Deceased was a brother of Mrs. John Clark, of Race street, Sunhury. Ho wast» mem ber of tho Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen and the No. 1 Fire Com pany. Cf a kind and pleasing dis position it is with deep regret that his many friends learn ot his death. Funeral announcement will be made later. PUBLIC SALE —OF VALUABLE REAL ESTATE!
