AN AGGRAVATING
SITUATION
The people of Danville are having a
strenuous time in orossing the rivet at
this period of broken bridges and float
ing iue. A looal paper tolls how they
do It. The more adventurous, braving
the dangers of the river.row ont as far
as the third pier, the present end of
the new bridge. There, after haviog
■eoured their orafts, they asoend the
long ladder which extends from the
water to the top of the pier. From
that point they walk a narrow plank
to the other side, a feat that is per
formed at the risk of slipping oS the
plank and plunging iuto the ioy water
of the North Branoli.
This adventurous undertaking Is
necessitated by the maohinery of the
naphtha lnnnuh having become ungear
ed. Bat relief from this embarrassing
situation was in sight at last accounts.
Two more naphtha laonohei were ex
peoted to be putin operation on Satur
day or Sunday, one having been ship
ped from Sunbury and another sent
down from Bloomsborg. Other relief
Ii at hand, wbioh makes the prospeot
still brighter.
With the experience whloh the peo
ple of Danville are having this winter
they will have reason to be happy
when their new bridge is oompleted.
But they are not the only people who
are suffering the inoonvenienoe of in
terrupted oommunioation through tho
destruction of a bridge, though their
oase is a more aggravated one than
that of Sunbury and Northumberland.

Rev. Heck's Qreat Revival.
The Rev. O. O. Heok,formerly past
or of the Trinity M. E. ohuroh.of this
oity is having a revival in the Metho
dist ohrooh at Waynesboro,of whioh he
bai had oharge for several years, that
leads the very suocessful one he had a
year ago. In referring to it the Waynes
boro Herald of Monday, says:
" What is considered bv tho oldest
members of the churoh, the greatest
revival ever held in the Methodist
Episcopal churoh, of Waynesboro, is
now ic progress.
To the present time there have been
one hundred and eleven conversions
and one hundred and six have united
with the ohuroh on probation. Of this
number ninety-eight are adults and of
this number flfty-two are men and
many ot them heads of families. This
evangelistio effort is all the more re
markable when it is remembered that
as a result of the meeting a year ago
one hundred and three united with the
ohurih. The pastor, Rev. O. O. Heok,
has had sole charge of these servioes.
Unusually large oongtegarions were
preseut yesterday. In the evening the
auditorium and lecture room were
thrown together and both were filled
to their utmost capacity, many being
turned away. The pastor preached a
short sermon at eleven o'clook from
Rom. 10:9-10. An altar service fol
lowed.
Two meetings were held at 3 o'clook,
the men's meeting, at whioh fully one
hundredjwere present and a well at
tended meeting for women and young
people.
In the evening the pastor preaolied
from Uark 8: 36-37. There were six
peutents at at the altar, four conver
sions and three arose for prayers. One
person was received into the churoh by
certificate and a olass of twenty-eight
reoeivod on probation.
£There will be servioes every night
this week, for the end of the meeting
is not yet. All are oordially invited
to attend."
Marriage and Divorce.
The Episcopal olergy in the diocese
of Kansas Oity who have informed
their people that thev will not marry
persons who have been divoroed for
any oause arising after marriage will
not thus weaken the divorce evil nor
strengthen the ohuroh.
Refusal to reoognize divorce is un
reasonable. There are canses for di
vorce whioh no man should refuse to
reoognize as good and suffloient. It
does not follow that because a man
and a woman have been joined togeth
er thc> must remain so although their
relations may beoome unutterably un
bearable and engender thoughts of sin
fulness and often enoourage their com
mission.
All marriages are not made in heav
en. Some marriages are wioked in
the beginning and their fruits are
misery, wretohedness, and orime. Oan
any man believe suoh marriages
are sanotifled? Oan any man persuade
himself that, Binoe every individual
must be judged for his or her own
sins, marriage is for eternity?
The wise men who have arrayed
themselves against remarriage of all
persons who have been divoroed for
oauses arising after marriage, thus
practically declaring against all di
vorce, will find themselves powerless
to eradicate the divoroe evil. This
evil does not lie in separation for any
reason but for good reasons, for rea
sons whioh make cohabitation a orime
against God and man. If the ohuroh
refuse to sanotion divoroe for good
oause the church alone will suffer, for
Its mandate will not be obeyed.
Farmers' Institutes.
The larmers of Northumberland
county will be interested to learn that
I. A. Eschbaoh, member of the state
board of agriculture, lias arranged for j
two farmers' institutes to be held in
that county next month, one at Elys
burg on February Bth and 9th aud the
other at Turbotville on Febraary 10th
aud Uth. A number of instructors
from other parts of the state will be
present to join with the farmers of the
looality in the discussion of topics rel
ative to agrionlture. These meetings
are free aud open to all, and we have
no doubt the farmers of that oouuty
will avail themselves of the advant
ages to be gained by attending these
meetings.
Launch at Catawissa.
A naphtha launoh will be pat in op
eration on the river at Oatawissa to
day at noon. Since the ice moved off
the river there has been but little com- i
municaiion aoross the stream at that
point. The ferry has been out of com- '
mission on account of the ice, and it j
was possible to run foot boats only at i
rare in terra la j
SJIOOS RUNAWAY
ACCIDENT
Rev. 3. D. Cook and wife, of Re
novo, both former residents of this
oity, wore painfully injured Sunday
evening about fi :80 o'clook by being
thrown from a sleigh. The accident
happened while the olergyman and his
wife were returning from one of the
Presbyterian ohurohes of whioh he is
the pastor. The horse frightened at a
passing train, aud turning quiokly,
upset the sleigh. Mr. Oook had three
ribs broken and Mrs. Cook sustained a
fraoture of one arm.
Every Sunday afternoon Rev. Mr.
Oook oonduots servioes at North Bend,
about three miles from Renovo, and it
was while returning from his weekly
visitation that their sleigh was over
taken by an east bound passenger train.
The horse frightened at the noise made
by the engine, and turning, started to
run away. The sleigh was upset and
both Mr. and Mrs. Cook thrown out.
They were taken to their home at Re
novo and given medioal attention. Be
side the injuries mentioned, both suf
fered from the shook and were badly
brnised.
Rev. Mr. Oook and wife are well
known in Danville, both having resi
ded in this oity. Mr. Oook was at
one time a teacher in the pnblio sohools
here, and was Oounty Superintendent
for one term. He was to have officiat
ed at the Evangelistio meetings at the
East End Mission next week.
PROPER USE OF RU
RAL LETTER ROXES
The post offloe department has issu
ed the following order:
Owing to the numerous complaints
whioh are being made to the depart
ment that advertising oiroulars and
other, mailable matter, postage on
which has not been prepaid, are being
placed in rural letter boxes Intended
for persons who receive mall through
suoh boxen; and in order that there
may be no misunderstanding regard
ing the proper disposition of such mat
ter, you are hereby advised that pa
trons boxes erected on rural routes,are
intended exclusively for the reoeption
of matter regularly in the mails, for
delivery or dispatoh through the mails
and "mailable" artioles which car
riers find deposited in suoh mail boxeß
on their routes, are properly "in the
mails" and subjeot to all the rules j
regulating mail matter, iuoluding the
payment of postage thereon.
You will promptly and fully instruut
the rural carriers attached to your
ofHae that all mailable matter found
in rural letter boxes, without the prop
er postage affixed or money provided
sufficient to purchase same, should te
taken to the initial post office to be
held for postage. Suoh matter on its
receipt at the post office should be
treated in accordanoe with the provis
ions of the Postal Laws and Regula
tions oovering matter mailed without
prepayment of postage. Rural letter
boxes are afforded the same protection
under the law, as other United States
mail boxes.
Jlonument to Oovernor Pollock.
The press of Milton aud Sunbury are
urging the erection of a monument to
James Pollock, a native of Milton,the
firtit Republican Governor of Pennsyl
vania, and the most famous of North
umberland Oounty's sons.
The propriety of it is predicated up
on the claim that monumeuts have
been ereoted in memory of other gov
ernors, who were his predecessors as
well as successors iu the gubernatorial
office. There Is plausibility in suoh a
claim, but it has a more substantial
basis than that. It would be a just
tribute to one of the best and purest
governors this state has ever had. It
would be a fitting recognition of the
worth of a man who filled honorably
aud naefully every position he ever
occupied, whether publio or private.
James Pollook was one of the most
distinguished—probably the most dis
tinguished personage that Nothumber
land county ever produoed. A brilli
ant lawyer, and able and just judge, a
distinguished member of oongress and
a governor who refleoted additional
honor upon that exalted station—these
were the distinctions that gave him
pre-eminence among the sons of that
county.
About Two Dams.
Up in Luzerne oounty they are rais
ing money to pay the expense of tear
ing out the Nantiooke dam. It belongs
to the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, whioh has no use for it and is
willing to sell it for the purpose of
its removal. The reason for wanting
to remove it is that it is believed to
be responsible for the floods whioh
have caused so much damage between
Nantiooke and Wilkesbarre dnring the
last several years. While the people
up thore are desirous of removing that
dam, and are willing to pay the ex
pense, the residents of Sunbury would
be willing to inour the cost of reoon
strocting the dam at tiiis plaoe If they
had the oash. The circumstances are
different at the two plaoes. At Nanti
ooke the town will be proteoted from
j floods by the removal of the dam. At
Sunbury the situation as regards floods
would be safer if the dam whioh lias
been bioken should be rebuilt. There
is a wide differenoe iu these dam ques
tions.— Sunbury Item.

ONE THOUSAND
VISITS LAST WEEK
That the Young Men's Ohristian As
sociation is a popular resort for men
and boys,is demonstrated every day by
the large attendance at the building
for various purposes. Last week there
were over a thousand visits made to
the Association building.
The entire building was in use con
stantly,and at times it was fairly over
run witli young men. The reading
room, gamj room and parlor, were iu
use constantly, and the gymnasium
aud baths were at times taxed to their
utmost to accommodate the large num
ber of persons making use of these de
partments. Classes are now quite
large, and in some cases take up all
the floor spaoe of the gymnrsium, so
that it will be difficult to find room
for many more on the floor. This is
especially trae of the boys' class and
the youug men's class, and will soon
be the case in the evening class, com
posed of business men.
Hie Bible olasses are well attended,
especially the boys' Bible class, whioh
had an attendanoe of 125 last Friday
evening. ID every department the in
terest is growing, and the work seems
to be gaiuiug daily in favor with the
people,and is recognized as an institu
tion of immense importanoe in the
town. There seems to be little donbt
as to the lature of the Association, if
present indications oonnt for any
thing,and the Directors aud others iu
teresied are encouraged at the outlook.
RESULTS OF EFFORTS
FORM ROADS
In his statement to Governor Penny
paoker of the workings of the State
Highway Department during 1901,
Highway Commissioner Hunter reports
satisfactory progress. The last Legis
lature appropriated $6,500,000, to be
expeuded in six years as provided for
in the Sproul Good Roads bill.
During the year 9.36 miles of road
were oompleted. There is now under
construction 82 44 miles of good road,
and under contract 27.30 miles of road.
Bids have been reoeived, but the con
tracts not yet executed for 33 57 miles
of road, and other mileage under con
sideration makes a total of 130.54 miles
of road in the one year. The depart
ments aUo supervised the oonstrnction
in Bucks County oi about twenty-five
miles of road.
I Commissioner Hunter makes a num
ber of reoouimeudatious, among them
i that all applications for road improve
i ments be filed with the department by
the 31st of May iu each year; that
money apportioned to counties in the
previous year aud not applied for be
apportioned to the oounties that have
an excess of applications for the cur
rent year; aud that the office foroe of
the department should have at leaat six
more civil eugiueers.
Commissioner Hunter thinks there
should be at least three supervisors in
each township, one being eleoted each
year, aud says:
"In some cases supervisors have
made application for road improve
| ments aud those who have succeeded
| them iu offiae have attempted tore-
pudiate the action of their predeoes
sors,causing no end of troabie and an
noyance. Iu some cases the supervis
ors have refused to act after being
petitioned by the property owners in
the towusliip. The time is rapidly ap.
proacliing when tho work tax in road
repairs iu the various townships will
be abolished. Of tho $4,500,000 levied
and colleoted for rojd purposes one
half is practically wasted or thrown
away. Under the work tax method
the township pays one dollar for fifty
cents worth of work."

Catawissa Bridge Prospects.
Prospeots for the early re-building
of the river bridges at Oatawissa aud
Berwick are very bright. The matter
of re-building will most likely be
brought before the Committee of Pub
lio Grounds aud Buildings at Harris
burg next Tuesday, at whioh time the
engineers will make their reports and
submit plans.
A oommittee, consisting of Hon. E.
W. Samuels, of Mt. Carmel, O. E.
Guyer, of Catawissa. and W. D. Beck
ley, of Bloomsborg,was iu Harrisburg
yesterday and oalled upon Senator
Penrose and others and talked over
matters relative to the urgent need for
a bridge at Oatawissa. The oommittee
also presented a petition,signed by the
business men of Bloomsborg aud Oata
wissa, to Governor Pennypacker, ask
iug that work on the Catawissa bridge
be started as soon as possible. The
Governor was greatly interested in the
plea, and gave his assnrauoe that the
matter would be hastened in every way
possible.
Bloomsburg to Have a Hospital.
Bloomsburg is soon to be benefited
by the addition of a hospital. This
welcome and greatly needed adjunct
to her other in>titutions, is made pos
sible through the philanthropy of
Joseli Ratti, treasurer of the Blooms
burg Silk Mill, and a resident of that
plaoe for many years. A building,
known as the Ritter homo and looated
on East street, has been purchased for
the proposed hospital. The building
will be enlarged and remodeled bv Mr.
Ratti, who will also pay for the main
tenance of the hospital. The work of
remodeling tho building will begin in
about two weeks, and it will soon be
ready for oocupaucy. A number of
Bloomsburg, Catawissa and Berwiok
physioians will co operate with Mr.
Ratti. It will acoommodate 24 pati
ents, aud will be the only hospital be
tween Wilkesbarre aud Sunbnry.
Officers Installed.
Distriot Deputy Supreme Arohon
A. M. Peters was in Bloomsburg last
evening installing oilioers of the Con
clave of the Improved Order of Hep
tasophs iu that oity. After the instal
lation an elaborate bauquet was serv
ed.
Thursday evtning Mr. Peters will
install the offioers in the Hazletou
Conclave, and on Friday evening he

the past year he had been totally blind.
He was a man of a kindly disposition,
trustworthy and honest iu every sense

ohannels and the damaging floods of
the last several years are attributed to
this. Aotion is to be oommenoed

As to Coloring Butter.
The American Dairyman, which is
published in New York, takes op the
oadgel for the coloring of batter. It
contends that the Pore Food Depart
ment of this State lias no right to pro
hibit the sale of colored batter, that
there is no law to prevent it, and that
| the people, the consumers, insist that
their better be always colored.
The Pure Food Department can safe
ly be left to deal with the legal side
of the question. In seeking to prove
the popnlar demand for the oolored
product the Dairyman says :
Wiiite butter,resembling lard
will not appeal to the appetite
of the publio, and they will
have none of it. This hnsbeeu
ehcvrn by the great falling off
in the sale of uncolored oleo.
Proving that the people will not buy
unoolored batter,by pointing to a fall
ing off in the sales of unoolored oleo,
is something new and refreshing. No
doubt the Dairyman oould stimulate
the sale of batter by advooating the
more general ase of oleo. That is,
providing it oould bring the people to
that stage of sophistication which
would enable them to distinguish the
difference between butter and oleo
whether bought from farmers, dairy
men or grocers.
