    GTHNASIUH
CLASSES
The opening of the Y. M. O. A.
gymnasium for the full and winter
season is being looked forward to by a
large number of men aud boy** and
from preseut indications it is likely
that not only will all the old mombers
be enrolled, bot many new ones will
be included in the olasses.
The gymnasium will be opened dur
ing the last week of the present month.
Should the weather prove too warm,
the opening will be deferred to early
October. Olasses for busiuess men,
young mon and boys will bo made up
in the same manner as last year and
besides tho regular roatino work, will
inoludo all soasonablo out door sports.
There will be no ladies' classes this
year unless thero is a guaranteed mem
bership of at least fifteen.
Since last season now parallel bais
have been installed. A striking bag
of tho most improved pattern isanoth
or now feature. Tho oquipmont has
been overhauled and improvod and all
things considered splendid results aro
bound to be obtained during next sea
son.
The various classes will bo under
the supervision of Physical Director
Oarpenter. Mr. Oarpentor is an en
thusiast on gymnasium work and since
he has been in charge much interest
in tliis line of work has beeu awaken
ed.
DON'T OPEN OTHER
PEOPLE'S LETTERS
"Opened by mistake" are words
numerous Danville citizons have notic
ed written on letters received by them
indicating that some ono has opened
said letter aud romailed it. All post
office people occasionally mako mis
takes and get mail in wrong boxes, or
similarity of names frequently causo
mail to be delivored to wrong per
sons. These persons so reoeiving oth
er persons' mail oflon open letters
when they nre fully awaro that tho
mail receivod is not intendod for them.
Tho authorities at Washington,hav
ing recently recognizod this custom,
liavo fixed a penalty of s'ioo on any
person taking out of tho post office
mail other than their own. Tho law
includes uowspapers as well as first
claBS mail matter. The new law says
that people must examine mail beforo
leaving post office aud if they have
mail othor than thoir own it must be
roturnod at once.
There is a class of people whoso
cariosity leads them to open letters,
aud this class is warned to he careful.
If tlioy open a letter hereafter which
does not belong to them tlioy must sign
their name and state why they opouod
tho same. This law uiay bo of much
benefit in breaking up this custom.

JUDGE HERRICK
POR GOVERNOR
:NKW YORK, Sept. 21.—.Judge Hor
rick of Albauy,has boon nominated for
Governor by the Democratic State
Convention in session at Saratoga.
Tho convention was delayod for some
time pending the rosult of the confer
ence of leaders, Chairman Horn blower
not calling to order until after the
noon hour.
Francis 13urton Harrison was agreed
on for lieutenant governor.
Wall Strengthened.
A much needed improvement is now
rapidly Hearing completion at tho
Water Works. For some timo past the
surface water from tho street has been
poroolatiug through tho front wall of
tho pump room, carrying with it
quantities of dirt and snnd.
It was decided to make an excava
tion in front of tho building and put
a coat of cement on tho wall. The
efficiency of cement used in this cap
acity was clearly illustrated by the
way in which the comented rear wall
of the puuip room withstood the rav
ages of last winter's flood.
Tho excavation which is 20 feet deep
and 80 feet in length has been com
pleted. All that remains to ho done
is to put on tho coat of oeiuont, and
fill up tho trench. Tho work is in
charge of Superintendent P. J. Reefer.
Funeral of J. Henry Harder.
The funeral of J. Henry Harder, who
died at Detroit, Mich., Saturday last,

Andy, John Hixson.and Gooriro Maiors.
Interment was made in tho Episcopal
cemetery.
A New Pavement.
Contractor D. J. Rogers is putting
down a ooucrete pavement in front ot
the Globe storo. This sidewalk will
conform with tho established grade
and will moet all tho requirements
made by the new curbing. It will bo
a handsome piece of work when com
pleted anil will add considerably to the
appearance of the street.
CHAS. A. SIDLER'S
INTERESTING LETTER
The following letter from Oharles A
Sidlor, Esq., of Sunbury, who is at
presout at Etzatlan, Mexico, to his
brother Register and Recorder W. A.
Sidlor of this oity, will prove of in
terest to many of onr oitizeus. Mr.
Sidler is deeply interested in the Am
paro Mining Company,a heavy copper
producing conoorn. There are 40,000
shares of Auiparo mining stock held
by Danville residents and it may prove
an interesting fact to know that this
stock whioli originally brought 25
cents a share is now soiling at 50 cents.
The letter reads as follows:
Dear Brother: —Wo arrived in Guad
alajara on the Ist, tired and dirty
travolers, as wo had been traveling
five conseoutive days and ui^litß.
After attending to some business in
Guadalajara we came to Etzatlan on
the evening of the 3rd, or one week
ago. Mr. Ferdinand Sustersic, onr
now Gonoral Manager, met UB at Dur
ango, and lie and liis wife wero of the
party during tlie rest of the journey.
Last Sunday wo spout here at the
offices and Haw the employes paid off,
which took about all of the forenoon.
Early Monday morning we started for
the mines,going up over the new road,
and arrived there in about two hours.
Clarence Voris rode up in the covered
wagon, but I preferred to go upon
horseback, and rode with Mr. Suster
sio.
After dinner wo all went into the
mine and spent nearly all tlio after
noon there. Mr. Sustersic went all
through the different woikings undor
tlio guidance of Mr. Callahan, Mine
Superintendent, but Mr Voris and I
did not caro to olimb Mexican ladders,
so we went down in the ore hoist and
met thein at the bottom of the shaft
when they reached there. Mr. Snstor
sic iB a man of few words, but after
his examination of the mine he said
that it was magnificent, ono of the
finest that ho had ever seen. He said
that it is a rare thing to find a miuo
in which the side walls are so clearly
doflnod as in the Santo Domingo. They
shipped H7 cars of ore during the
month of August, anil are now ship
ping about forty lons por day. The
S»n Juan shaft, is 410 feet deep and
there is not a stick of timber in it.
The fact is there is no timber in the
mine as the walls are so firm they do
not rcquiro it. Mr. Callahan is un
stinted in his praise of the mine. He
says that ho has examined most of the
bost miuoß ill Mexico for different peo
ple, some of which sold for anywhere
from $5,000, 000, to $8,000,000 Mexi
can money, and of them all there is
but one better mine in this country
than tlio Santo Domingo. He thinks
that our company liaß a great future
before it, but that the change in the
management was made none too soon,
as many things wero neglected by the
old management.
In Mr. Sustorsic the company has
one of tho best metallurgists and en
gineers in this country and under his
guidanco our company is going to
forge to tho front very rapidly. With
us the only question is how soon will
wo be able to pay dividends. The
Santo Domingo has tho reputation all
through this country of being one of
the gn at mines of Mexico, and it cer
tainly could not have gotten suoli a
reputation unless it produced the oro.
Gne man in Guadalajara told me that
ho has known tho mine for tho last
tweuty-fivo years,and that it is a very
fine mine. Wo are having tho rainy
season here pt presont, and as I ride
along in the cars in the valleys and
look out over the flelda of corn, it is
not unlike a rido through the country
there. But whon wo pass through
some immense ranch, where there are
fields of two and threo hundred acres
one realizes that he is not in Pennsyl
vania at least. Last Saturday on our
way liore we passod one field in which
1 counted 98 team of oxen ploughing;
hut not as wo plough ill our country.
Tlioy simply scratch the ground
around here. The land is now being
prepared for wheat. Tlioy have plouty
of rain this season and the crops are
lino. Hore you can see corn, sugar
cauo and tobacco raised side by side.
Mr. Voris expects to start for home
ono week from today but I shall re
main here until October Ist and go in
to ovory detail of our business as re
quested by Judge Paxsou.
Your brother,
CHAS. A. SIDLER.
Dimentions of Retaining Wall,
As yet no dimensions have been de
cided upon as to tho length of the pro
posed rotaiuiug wall at the Wator
Works. The plans will be drawn by
Borough Engineor Koofer and will
show dimensions and give estimates
for two walls, one 85 feet in length
and another 155 foot ill length.
Tho Water Commissioners seem to fa
vor tho 155 foot wall taking in the on
tiro long h of the Borough property.
Tho smaller structure would include
only the longtli of the Water Works
buildings and would leavo an opeu
space between the County lot ou tho
west side of the bridge and tho filter
ing plant.
The County Commissioners will be
asked to join with tho Borough and
build a wall along tho County lot to
adjoin with the Borough structure
thus making it continuous from the
abutment to the extreme western end
of tho Water Works buildings.
Tho wall will bo twenty-five foot
high and will romoso all danger of
washouts and insure safety to the
pump-room during the heaviest floods.
Will Meet Next Week.
The eighty-fourth anniversary ot tho
Northumberland Baptist association
will bo hold in tho First Baptist
church, Williamsport, ou Wednesday
and Thursday of next week. On Tues
day tho Woman's Homo and Foreign
Missionary Society will meet at the
same church, holding an afternoon
and evening session. Over two hun
dred delegates aro expected to attend
tho association anniversary. These
will all he guests of the members of
tho congregation ot tho First Baptist
church, and will he entertained by
them. Tho first mooting will be held
Wednesday morniug.
WELL EQUIPPED
For several years past it has been
tlio idea of tlie authorities in charge
of oar public schools to institute a
laboratory for the practical demonstra
tion of chemical and physical phenom
ena. This year it was decided to fit
out one of the smaller roouis oonuected
with the high school as a laboratory
where the students in the chemistry
and physics classes conld perform ex
periments connected with thoir work.
The laboratory, which is now com
pleted, accommodates eight students.
It is thoroughly modern in every re
spect both as to workmanship and
equipment. Lockers and several
drawers are provided for each student,
in addition to which there is a foil
line of Bunsen burners, beakers, test
tubus and chemicals.
j The room is provided with desk
chairs where the students can take
locturo notes or do other writing.
Nearly all the colleges and univer
sities in the country domaud that an
entering student shall have had at
least an elementary course in exper
imental chemistry and physics. AH a
result many of the high schools in the
largor cities have installed laborator
ies. It is gratifyiug to know that
those who have chargo of public educa
tion in Danville are not allowing our
schools to fall below the staudard set
by othor progressive institutions.

OPERA HOUSE
IMPROVEMENTS
The season of 1904-05 at the Danville
Opera House will be opened on Sept
ember 29th, by the well known Mur
ray & Uackey Company. The old fav
orites will play a three nights engage
ment.
The patrons of the theatre will be
moat agreeably surprised at the many
important ohanges that have been made
siuoe the hoose elosed last season. All
alterations as recommended by the
oommittee have been folly complied
with along with the establishment of
many modern improvements.
An up-to-date Ore escape has already
been erected on the north side of the
bnilding, with two exits; one leading
from the balcony and the other from
the dress cirole. Another fire escape,
easy of desoent, with wide landings,
will be erected on the Mahoning street
side of the bailding. There will be
four exits onto this stairway. These
exits along with the front and rear
passageways will make it possible to
dismiss a oapaolty audience within
two ruinates without orowding or re
sorting to haste. This estimate is bas
ed on a former reoord of four minutes
when one of the largest audlenoes iu
the history of the theatre passed out
of the front doors on Mill street in
that time. The exits are all plainly
marked aud are very easy of access.
Another noteworthy improvement is
the installing of eleotrioity on the
stage. This method of lighting will
make it possible to give a performance
in metropolitan style.
A complete change iu scenery is an
other improvement that will aid great
ly in the production of the different
plays. The new soenery is of modern
coustrnotion and will not be worked
in grooves as formerly. It is dropped
from the loft aud under this system
long waits between aots will be a
thing of the past. The new soenery is
very handsome and Inoludes every
thing required iu a first class theatre.
Companies oarryiug their own scenic
mounting oan now uso all drops, set
pieces, etc. The width of the stage,
wliioh was formerly Bfl feet, lias beeu
increased to 43 foet. In the past many
companies were unable to hang some
of their best scenes on account of the
narrowness of the stage. AB the wid
est drops are never more than 40 feet
everything oarried by any show can
bo plaoed on the looal stage.
A handsome asbestos curtain is also
to bo hung before the house opens.
This curtain will work straight up and
down aud oan be dropped iu a few sec
onds. The old style roller curtain has
been entirely eliminated. The dress
ing rooms have been made easy of ac
cess aud everything done for the con
venience and comfort of the players.
With the many improvements it has
been possible to book some strong at
tractions. Many old favorites will
again visit Danville, among them be
ing Mildred Holland aud Katharine
Willard. Wyle's orohestra has been
engaged for the season aud will in
olude nine of Dauville's host mnsio
lans.
THE COMING
MILTON FAIR
The managers of the Milton Fair
Association are more than pleased
with tlio encouraging outlook for a
successful fall meeting. The fair
opeus on Wednesday, Ootobor sth, and
oontlnues on the 6th aud 7th. Secre
tary Paul aud several olerks have been
kept busy for some time sending out
advertising matter aud answering in
quiries, and there is uo exaggeration
in the statement that iu every depart
ment there is an unusual interest
shown by intending exhibitors. The
attraction* that have beeu secured to
entertain the people are the very best,
and are entirely different from any
thing ever shown here. Good musio
has also been secured for each day,and
the midway will present its usual at
tractive features. The poultry exhibits
of the Milton fair alone are worth go
ing to see if there wasn't anything
else to interest yoa. Special arrange
ments have been made for an improv
ed service and reduced rates.

be too late for either political party
to bid it io (or this campaign.
BAND SHOWS HARK
ED IMPROVEMENTS
Muoh favorable comment has been
hoard on the excellent conoerts given
by StOes* baud during the past mouth.
The band is showing a marked im
provement along all lines and with
the proper iuterest and a good attend
ance at rehearsals, this organization
will improve very muoh.
Arthur Foalk, the conductor, is a
most pains-taking aud conscientious
bandmaster. He has had a wide ex
perience in his work.
The concort given at South Dauville
on Friday evening was a real musical
treat and was much enjoyod. The pro
gram was made up of meritorious num
bers aud thoy woro roudered in an art
istic mannor.
This orgauizatiou should be support
ed iu every way possible. A good band
is necessary iu a community, and
affords diversion and auiusoment to
everybody. Members of a band in the
smaller towns usually have a thankless
task. They devote muoh of their time
to rehearsals and gratuitous playiug
and if publio appreciation is uot shown
they have nothing for their trooble.
In many towns work is sooured for
musioiaus as an incontive for them to
locate in a community while oxpenses
such as the baud room reut and music
are mot by popular subscription. Mem
bers of Stoes' baud liavo recently been
oompelled to pay room rout out of
their owu pockots.
Such iucideuts have a tendency to
discourage an organization aud under
the circumstancos Stoes' band doserves
great credit for tho showing made.
Several plans are under way to raise
funds for the baud and they should be
liberally supported.
FIRST ATTACK OF
BATTLE OF MUKDEN
ST. PETERSBUKU, Sopt. 81.-9:80
p. in. —Qeu. Kuropatkin telegraphing
nuder yesterday's (lute, deolarus that
the situation at the front in uuclmng
e<l. He describes an outpost fight
Tuosday at Da Pass, half way between
Bentsioaptze and Siutsin.
A Japanese force consisting of four
troops marched up from Dzantiolmn,
twenty-three miles northeast of Sai
lnadzi and tried to capture the past
aud tarn the Russian left flank, but
tlio Russians repulsed the attack and
the turning movement was oliecked by
Russian cavalry,supported by machine
guns.
The receipt of the news at Tokio,of
the march of the Japanese from Dai

the rumor that Knrokihad orossed the
Hun river, which is twenty miles
north of Da Pass. The most reliable
information does not indicato the re

SHALL THE NAME
Jffl CHANGED
Mill street as far us pnvid shows np
admirably and the citizens of Danville
are more than delighted with tho im
provement. With tho trees cut down,
the caual bridges removed and the
street levoled to conform with the os-
tablished grade a uiost charming vista
is afforded to tho eye from almost any
poiut along tho long thoroughfaie.
When paving is completed and tho eye
runs down over tho oloau-swepc sur
face between the lines of trim curbing
tho elfeot will bo exceptionally fine
and Mill street will he a thoroughfare
which iu poiut of beauty will have
lew parallels iu any of the towns the
size of Dauville.
There is not au hour of the day but
some one is hoard to remark upon tho
beauty of tho stroet. Not a few he
come very enthusiastic and think that
tho jld name "Mill street," is no
longer good euougli and that the pav
ed street should be rechristeued to con
form with now conditions. The home
ly title of 'Mill street," they declare,
might have been appropriate enough
iu the past, but that now a name
should be selected moio in harmony
with tho couceptiou of a business
thoroughfare beautified as outs is to
be.
The choice of a name might be safe
ly left with Council, which within a
recent period rechristoned another
street of this town, whose title had
beoomo obsolete, the name. "Rough
aud Ready streut," being changed to
"Iron streot."
