OLD TIMERS
AT HILTON
Tbe Old Timers played a gamo of
base ball with the strong Milton team
on Saturday. The Milton aggregation
found a foe worthy of its stool in the
Old Timers,winning ont at the elev
enth inning on a score of 4 to 3.
Danville scored on first inning,while
it was not until the sixth inning that
Milton was able to score. The pi toll
ing on both sides was flue, MoOlond
for Danville having the host of it. Mil
ton was able to mak« 6 hits in eleven
inning*; Danville made ten hits.
Altogether the game was one of the
beat played in this section for a long
time. Teams that*go np against the
Old Timers kuow that they must have
tried and true players. ; iienoe it is ob
served this season that all the teams
that play the Old Timers are made np
principally of college boys. These real
ize that they must play good ball to
win and they do their best work. As
a result of all this the games this sea
son are olose and interesting.
The Old Timers possess the secret of
making every play count. That Baori
floe hitting is an important faotor in
run getting was demonstrated at Mil
ton Saturday. In all iustanoes when a
player readied first base the following
battar endeavored to advauoo him by
saorlflolng.
Logan who waa such a favorite in
Danville having signed with Milton,
Manager MoOoy was obliged to get a
new ihort stop for Saturday's game.
Oharies Howell of Northumberland,
who made an impression when lie play
ed here with the Bucknell Reserves,
was given a trial at Bhort stop aud
oame fully up to expectations as the
soore attests, aooeptiug nine chances
without an error. While lie failed to
hi( safely on Saturday there is every
reason to believe that under the in
struction of Oaptain Yerriok he will
develop into a good bitter before the
season is over.
The umpiring was poor iu the Mil
ton game, although none of the decis
ion* seemed to reflect any iutentiou to
wilfully deprive either team of its just
does. A big crowd of rooters, sixty or
more, followed the Old Timers to Mil
ton and these made their prosenoe felt
dnring the game. The oontest was
witnessed by a large assemblage.

ATTEMPTED TO
KILL HERSELF
i
Misa Loo Bower, aged thirty years
attempted to commit suicide between
eleven and twelve o'clock, Saturday
night.at the home of her father, George
Bower,oorner Race and Front streets,
Sunbary. The weapon used was a 32-
oalihie revolver. The bullet eutered
back ot the right eye aud lodged at a
point baok of the uoae. The victim
waa removed to the Mtry M. Packer
Hoepital and is in a preoarions condi
tion.
The motive for the deed is nnknown
bat It is believed that a lover's qnar
rel led to the shooting. The young
lady was divoroed from O. H. Bair of
Nswberry, about a year ago. Sinoe
that time she has kept compauy with
a youug man from Sunbury. They
were down town on Saturday evening
and returned borne at about half-past
tea. Her parents bad already retired.
Between eleven aud twelve o'clock the
young mau aroused Ur. aud Mrs. Bow
er and told them that their daughter
had (hot herself. Both being hard of
nearing, they had not hoard the report
of the pistol.
Upou coining dowu stairs, Mr. aud
Mrs. Bower found the woman lyiug
in an uuoooscioua coudition on the
kitohsn floor, with the smoking pistol
tightly clutohed in her right hand.
Dr. W. T. Orahaui was summoued
and upon arrival found that the bul
let had barely missed the temple aud
paMgd back of the right eye. The
flesh was bnrned aroun 1 the wouud
showing that the weapon was close to
the head when the shot was Orud. The
ambulance was called aud the womau
was removed to the Mary M. Packer
hospital and placed in the care of Dr.
B. H. Reno, the surgeon on duty at
present. The bullet was not located
and the coudition of the patient ia
oooaidered serious. If she does recover
it ia quite likely that the eye will
kits to be removed.
fts womau has made no statemeut
and the young man who was with her
at UM time the shootiug look pla.-e
dsnies that they had a quarrel of any
kind and states that he knows of no
r«— on for the attempted suicide.
The revolver belonged to the womau.
aad the small calibre is all that
thwarted her plana to end her life im
mediately. Same time ago «he threat
ened to kill herself and exhibited a

RELIEVE FLOOD' "
CONDITIONS
To the people who are eudeavoring
to ouforce llie I.IWB relating to tlia fill
ing of the river bod by culm mid other
obstructions the action recently taken
by the Jr. O. U. A. M.,of Harrisliurg,
will prove enconraging. The people in
1 that section of the stato are almost as
badly inconvenienced by the periodi
cal floods in the Susquehanna as are
the people in this section. For that
reason the Jr. O. U. A. M. has taken
up the matter and will use its vast
membership for the purpose of secur
ing laws to remedy the difficulty.
The members of John Harris Coun
cil, No. 174. of Harrisburg have passod
the following resolutions:
Whereas, the filling in along the
shores of the Susquehanna river and
the placing of obstructions in the riv
er, suoli as bridge piers, etc., by cor
porations for profit, and
Whereas, said obstructions have in
creased the danger ot floods to the
residents aloug said river,thereby cans
ing great damage to property which,
we belive.oau be remedied to a oertaiu
extent, by the deepening of the chan
nel, aud preventing any more .filling
in aloug the shores; thereforo he it
Resolved, that we petition national
congress,through our congressman and
United States senators, for an appro
priation from the river and harbor
fund for the improvement of the SUB
quehauua river by deepening the chan
nel, which plau has boon doelared can
be accomplished by eugiueers who
have examined the river for that pur
pose.
Resolved, that WQ petition our State
Legislature for an appropriation for
tho same purpose and for the enact
ment of laws preventing the Ailing iu
along the river shore by any corpora
tion, firm or person, aud for the plac
iug of any more obstructions iu the
river, aud be it further
Resolved, that we ask the 00-opera

1 PROSPEROUS
YEAR_FOR FARMERS
"All things oousidored this year
promises to ho a favorable aud pros
perous one to the farmer," said
Deputy Secretary of Agriculture Mar
tiu at Harrisburg on Friday. To Mr.
Martiu is assigned the duty of look
ing aftor crop matters throughout the
Stat 1, keeping track of tho conditions,
watching for changes, noting the
weather effect on the crops, aud other
importaut matters that have come to
such high conditions under Secretary
Oritohfiold.
"Owing to unfavorable conditions
for seeding wheat last fall," continu
ed Secretary Martin,"and the extreme
severe winter which followed, the
wheat crop will possibly not average
more than 50 per cent, of a full crop.
Harvestiug has begua in the Southeru
counties, bat iu Central aud Western
Pennsylvania the fields are quite
green. Complaiut has reached tho de
partment of much injury being done
by the Hessian fly in Fayette aud ad
joiuiug counties.
"Oats are iu fine condition, and
with favorable weather the oats crop
will bo very promising, and I predict
the yield will bo above the average.
Grass and pasture is everywhere
abundant and the hay crop is, in my
jndgmout, the largest ever growu iu
the State.
"(Joru ia not as good as it might bo.
Owiug to the extreme cold weathor iu
April ami May ooru planting was de
layed more thin three weeks. Then
the hard freezing of last winter de
stroyed the vitality of much of the
seed corn, which compelled replanting
of possibly fifty per oeut. of the acre
age. This condition,coupled with the
almost oontiuuons rains for the past
two months, have prevented the farm
ers from cultivating the corn crop,
which is ir. moat localities backwards
aud unpromising.
" The acreage of potatoes la possibly
leas than last year, bnt gives promise
of good yield, the vines being almost
free trom the ravages of potato beetle.
Nearly all vegetables have made good
growth aud promise foil crops.
"Considering the storm conditions
the apple crop promises great abund
ance iu almost every section of the
State, but in most sections the peach
crop will be light,which is iu part {tt
tributable to the Sau Jose acalo. Pears,
plums aud cherries iu moat sections
are abuudaut, and the prices are very
reasonable. The berry cropa are re
ported up to the average.
"The department has been notified
that in Allegheny and part of West
moreland coauties heavy storms aud
cloud bursts have destroyed the erop«
on numerous farms, and that certaiu
blight has seriously affected the wheat
orop in portions of York, Adams, and
other adjoining counties, but this
blight was only sectional in its rav
ages.
"Yes, 1 think,all things considered,
this year promise* to be a favorable
and prosperous oue to the farmer."
The department ia informed that cat
tle breeders throughout the State have
had a prosperous year,and that almost
all of their stock has been disposed of
at favorable prices.

SQUADRON AIDING
IN THE DEFENSE
ST. PKTERSBURG.JuIy 18.-13:82
p. m.— The Admiralty believes that
Rear Admiral Withoft'a aquidrnn is
rendering effective aid in the defence
of Port Arthur anil by imp diug tiie
oonairootiou of batteries near the enM
ern approaohes of the fortrean, by go
inil oul and aliening the Japanese
works under oonatruotiou for tlila pur
poae.
The eipedltiou of Saturday is belli v
ed to ha*e beeu of this nature. The
bringing op of siege gum to an effec
tive range ran thus be materially re
tailed. Thlf probably is 'llie n ason
tlie squadron lias not yet left Port Art
linr and it t« not likely to do BO until
Ilia fall of the fortress becomes inevit
able.
The admiralty oonsidera that the
u»v»! situation has greatly Improved
and sees evidence of the Japanese fleet!
•■•owing signs of exhaustion. The
odlolals. here think that Admiral
Togo, with the knowledge that he will
have to light without the co-operation
of the army in storiniug Pott Arthur,
ha> ueoome extremoiy oautiouH aboul
Hiking hia ihipa, and that at present
he will only undertake operations al
secondary importance, like a pursuit
of the Vladivostok squadron and oo
operation with land forces at New
Ohwang.
A special despatch from Ta-Tohe
Kiao says the Japanese lost heavily
while orossing the river at Kai-Clioo.
Aooording to a special telegram frou
Liao Yang the Ruasiau scouts liavi
disoovered further Japanese detach
ments In the valley of the Tai-Tse riv
er, on the road to Hukeo. The oor
respondent thinks the Japanese in thai
▼ioinlty Intend to diieot llieopmationi
of the Chinese bandits, who are cou
oentrating in the surroundiug valluj
for the purpose of raiding the railroad
and blowing up bridges.
