Tliis hour is made necessary by the change in tho tcliedule on the Sha inokiu division A later hoar woald cause that much delay to tho train throughout the entire day. Arrange ment have been effected to reach Phil adelphia returning Thursday night, leaving Washington after all depart ments are closed and the sight-seeing is douo. This will provo a decided gain Instead of spending Thursday eveniug at the hotels in Washington, the excursionists will use the time in traveling, arriving in Pniladelphia at a reasonable hour and thus gaining Friday for sight seeing iu the "Quak er City." Persons desiring to remain longer iu Philadelphia cau do so at their own expense, as the tickets will be good to return to Bloomsburg Throughout the entire trip the excur sionists will have their own special train of vestibule c»rs. The cost of the entire trip including railroad fare, hotel expenses, trip to Mt. Vernon, transfer of baggage iu Washiugtou and fee 9of gua ds will be sls. This is a slight increase over the charge for pre vious years, auri is caused by the fact that some lit tels and the Mt. Veruou railroad havo raised their charges. The party will b* conducted by mem bers of the Faculty who are well-in formed in regard to all places to be visited. The excursionists will be divided iuto groups,so that all can get the full explanations of the taachers and guides. The same oversight of the students will be exercised as is exercis ed at the school. Alumni and friends of the school who desire to visit Wash ington, will bo permitted to join this excursion, if they apply promptly.and the number is uot too great. Y. n. C. A. NOTES.

M. C. A.'s have used in this country and tho Philip pines for their soldier Assooiatious. The secretaries put up their tents tirst at Antnng, Manchuria, and within a we«k h ul 1,500 of the Japanese soldiers about them. In one day they srvid ten buckets of tea, and 375 letters and postals wore written home. Tho most popular thing the secretaries do is to give gr.tmo ( :h me concerts and enter tiinmeuts at the hospitals, as tho poor fellows are glad of any break iu tho monotony. Eveu au Americau is an intending curiosity iu himself to the average Japanese soldier, who is from the country. He wondeis what tho man is there for,and appreciates every little atteutiou and help in the relief of the suffering and tedium of the day and night. O. V.

The exclamation was made in ring ing torn s by a coudnctor on the Dan vil e aud Blojmbsnrg trolley line, last night. His car was the first to run through to the intersection of Bloom aud Mill stseets. llence his jubilant shout. The long expected had really occur red. It was exactly 9:25 o'clock. The car was packed from end to end with passenger*. There was "stand ing room only," aud hardly that. Both platforms and all the steps were crowd ed. A number of boys clung to iron rods at the rear of the car. The only space not occupied was the roof. The trip around the Bloom street curve, down '"A" street, through the sub way, along Walnut street to Mill was made with ease. Not the slightest trouble was eucouutered enroute. When the car stopped the motormau pulled the string and permitted the whistle to get in several minutes solid work. Its thrilling tones on the crisp air, was the first notice that mauy had of the arrival of the first trolley car to Mill street. Tuesday night's extreme cold weath er caused another delay in getting the Bloom street switch in position and the work of making the teed wire con nection at that point. Orders were giveu during the afternoou for every man employed in laying the switch to report for duty that night, in order that the work might be pushed to a finish with the utmost speed. It wasn't a pleasant order to re ceive. The workmeu were already tired aud chilled through. The thought of homes and warm stoves were more to their liking, tliau that of having to resume work again at night aud when mercury was hovering around the zero mark. American members of the crew readily consented to turn out aud work all night if necessary, but the Italian portion of the gang rovolted and em phatically refused to subject them selves to the bittor elements. "We no workee," too much colde; by aud by laboxe!" they said. Interpreted the expression is this: "We will not work at night when the weather is so cold. If we do we will get sick, dio and be putin a bcx." The few men who went to work coutiuued at it until 10 o'clock, notwithstanding the stinging, frosty air. But the work was not com pleted, and it took the full crew until 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon to finish laying the switch. At about the sauie time the liueinen made tho last wire connection. That left only a small portion of track requiring straighten ing aud strengthening to be attended to. A portion of tho rails on "A" street and extending along Walnut to Bloom, thence to Mill were covered with ice and snow to a depth that made them invisible. They had to be dug for, audit was necissary to clean them before cars could be run over the lino. A crew of men commenced clean ing the rails shortly after dinner aud it took them until 4:30 o'clock to reach Mill street, and au hour later to reach tho crossing of the D. L. & W. It was impossible for the men with picks and sorapers to remove the ice sufficiently for the current to have any effect on the wheels of the cars, so to expedite matters a heavy layer of salt was scattered aloug both rails the eutire length of the frozen track. I Then it was up to the salt as to the length of time that must of a necessity j iuterveue before the cars could run to Mill street. The Pure Food Farce. | It is suggested that the Pennsylvania pure food laws should bo enforced only agaiust dealors who have beeu warned that certain goods which they handle are impure and who nevertheless per sist iu selliug them. Justice would approve such depart ure from present methods of euforoing the laws. As now enforced these laws are farcical. The retailers agaiust whom the arms of the Commonwealth are leveled are in most cases iunocent of wrongdoing or of complicity in violations of the law. They buy what they believer are pure goods aud sell them under that belief. It is unjust to mulct them, up on the representation of ohomists from whose findings there is no appeal, for tho selling of alleged adulterated goods. It should be cleat to everybody that the retailer is himself the victim of the adulteration. What can be said iu defense of that law which punishes the victim of a crime or misdemeanor?! What would bo siid o' the mental lovel of a people who would send to jail the victim of au assault and take no action agaiust the assailant? Owner Pays if Dog Bites.

Miller,a farm er residing in Liberty township, wa< placed under #3OO bail by 'Squire Dal ton for his appearance at Court to an swer the charge of larceuy by bailee. The prosocutor was Benjamin Mill er, a junk dealer of this olty. He testi fied to having visited the farm of fie defendant on November 28, last and negotiated for the pnrchase of a lot of old iron, at 40 cents pur hnudrod. lie paid $3 ou account, and left for home with the understanding that lie was to return in a few days aud get the iron On Monday, December 5, lie weut back and upon looking around, discovered | that the pile of iron that lie was the one lie had purchased, was not as large as it had beeu at tho time of his first visit. In fact, he said, only a few pieces of it remained aud as they were of an iuferior quality,he refused to take them. He asked P. Miller what had beooine of the pile, and the latter replied that he liai sold them to Jaoob Bugle that moruiug at 50 cents per hundred. Ooutiuuiug the prosecutor said that he oane home, and had a warrant issued for the arrest ot' P. Miller. Tho latter claimed that lie made no specific agreement with Beu jamin Miller to sell him tho iron. He oame there ou November 23, and Fald he wanted a load of iron. He did not say whether he wauted scrap or oast iron, nor did lie mention how mmy hundred weight he desired to seoure. "Iliad seven piles of iron abiut my premises. He simply saidhewantel iron, and that he would be back in a few days. He offered uie £2 to bind the bargain. At firit I refused to take it, but when ho insisted that I should, 1 put it In my pooket. Jaoob Engle came to my place ou the moruiug of December 5, aud I sold liiiu I(500 pounds of iron at 50 cents per hundred. Later in the day Benjamin Miller put in an appearance again. Ho threw a load of iron into his wagon, then lie got mad aud thiewjit off, saying lie didn't want it. I gave him bank his $2 and he threw it ou the Riouud, where it buried itself in the snow. After he weut away I picked it out of the snow aud put it in my pocket. "Yes, I have it now," he replied to a question addressed to him by tho mag istrate. Beujamiu Miller was held iu his owu recognizance to appear and prosecute the caeo Growing in Interest. Under the supervision of Physioal Director Carpenter the work of the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium is gaining a high standard. All the classos are well at tended aud growing iu interest aud popularity. Five physical culture classes are now in successful operation. The busi ness men's evening class aud the busi ness men's afternoon class both meet twice a week. The latter is not as well attended at present as it might be,but will, doubtless, have a larger number prei-ent at the uieetiugs after tho holi days. The class for yonng men aud the boys class eaoh meets twice a week in the evenings, and the young ladies class twice a week in the afternoons. The latter olass is popular with the young ladies, well attended aud grow ing in interest. It is confidently ex pected that after the first of the year greater interest will be manifested in all the classes. Parents who have an interest in the physioal development of their boys aud girls, should present them with a Y. M. C. A. membership ticket,which will be good for one year iu any Y.M. C. A iu the Uuiteil States and Canada. Council Will Attend Funeral. There was a special mooting of Town Couuoil last night, at 7 :30 o'clock, to take suitable actiou on the doath of Councilman David A.

Representative Snyder of Scliuylkill oounty, is preparing a bill to present to the next Legislature askiug that a dollar tax bo put upon every man who carries a gun. In every senso of tiie word this law would be a good oue if it were properly euforood aud tho pro ceeds of tho tax wero applied in the direction of increasing aud piotectiug the game supply in the State, whiuh, iu this section at least, has readied a low poiut. The trus sportsmen will doubtless welcome a law of this oharacter.

Consequent ly there should be two roads acrosi the river. Leave the present path fo pedestrians and locate another fo: vehicles.

Despite the fact that the church au thorities are violently opposed to til scheme, the churoh fair in the base meut of a Shamokin house of worshi| is open to the publio Sunday evening and there is great indignation ove the deseoratiou of the holy day. Tho fair is run full blast aud one o the prominent features is the wheel 0 fortune giving each and every one i ohanC3 to wiu a prize.

NO. 5 SCfIABFFER WANTS SOME NEW LAWS lu his annual report Dr. N. C. Sohaeffer, Superintendent of Pablio Instruction advances arguments in favor of increased salaries for teach ers, claiming that better paid teaohers give better results in school work. He commends the act passed by the last Legislature placing the minimum sal arv for rnral teachers at |35 per month and asserts that this increase of salar ies has raised the standard of scholar ship, for passing the examinations for liceuse to teach, fifty per cent. The supeiintcndent further asserts that the increase of teachers' salaries in the rural districts emphasizes the need of a similar increase in the cities, where the cost of living is in excess of that of the rural districts. Concerning new legislation for the schools he says: "The law should specifically empow er directors to haul children to sohool whenever tliey deem it expedient to do so, t3 provide a safe escort over stream* and along railway tracks and in other ways to bring the pupils to school when the school is situated too far from the pupil. There should be a law the payment of the pupil's tuition in nearer or more accessible schools in adjacent district! when the distance to the nearest school in his own district is over a mile and a half,or when the road to said sohool is impassable during a portion of the year. "The directors should have all the power necesasry to bring all the chil dren to school by conveyance or other wise when this end can not be accom plished in tho usual way. It is only by granting to tho directors the most ample powers that the Legislature can succeed in banishing iguorance and il literacy from the Keystone State." Dr. Sohaoffer is opposed to director! assuming the duties of health boardi, saying: "The schools are seriously hamper ed and sometimes absolutely crippled by the duties which the law impose! upon the directors when they volun tarily assume the functions of health officers. It is undoubtedly a mistake to mix the administration of the sohool! with the functions of a Board of Health. Funds raisod by taxation for school purposes should not be diverted from their legitimate pse." Don't Bny Guns for Boys. Parents who contemplate giving their sous a flobert rifie, air gun, or spring gun as a Christinas prosent.are remind ed that the discharge of any such gun on any street or alley of the city i! prohibited by state law under penalty ot a fin 3 and imprisonment.

Engineer Insane Over Accident. Worrying for almost a year over hi! locomotive running down and killing an old crossing watohman at Mahanoy Plane, on the Philadelphia and Read ing Railway, Michael MoAndrew. of Frackville, has worked his mind into such a condition that it is necessary to place him under restraint, and a commission has been appointed to in quire as to his mental state, with a view of placing him in a sanitarium for special treatment. The stricken engineer was known a* a careful man,but when l.is engine,on a foggy morning, struck aud killed Peter Kissinger, the old crossing watchmau, he became unnerved. Hii fellow railroaders argued in vain that he was not to blame, and ho finally is olated himself at home and persisted in assuming tho responsibility. There is much sympathy for him, and it ii considered possible that a ohango of location may relieve his mind. An Important Question. An attorney now comes forward with the statement that boroughs can not compel railroad companies to employ watchmen or to erect gates at cross ings, that this right is reserved to sec ond cla-s cities. He says boroughs may pass an ordinance regulating the speed at which trains shall run over cro!! ings aud if such ordiuauce is violated the police may arrest tho crew for vio latiug the same. Plymouth appears to be up in arms iu this respect. Acci dents at un watched crossings are num erous aud the council at a recent meet ing instructed its attorney to draw op an ordiuauce amending the present oue, to the end that the evil could be remedied.
