GABLE DROPS IN THE RIVER The river oable belonging to the United Telephone and Telegraph Com pany, met with an aooident yesterday by whioh it was torn from its support and rent into several different pieces destroying direct communication with Sanbary and Shamokinand outting off all the patrons of the system living In South Danville and Riverside. The lung cable was stretched across the river nearly a year ago. Support ed at each shore ou long poles planted high on the river bank the oable when new was very high above the water. To install it was quite a feat. It will be reoalled that iu stretching the cable it was necessary to send a man aoross the river with no other support than the thin messenger wire. He attraoted an immense crowd as he seemed to bang In mid air some fifty feet above the water. High as the oable was at first before many weeks it began to sag and con tinued to drop lower and lower uutil Monday when it was only a few feet above the water. AH the river rose the oable touohed the current aud yester day morning for a long distanoe it was oompletely under water. In this position it was in great dan ger. A mass of ioe or heavy pieoe of driftwood striking It would have brok en it or wrested it from its fastening and oarried it down stream. To pre vent such a contingency a orew of liue oien were called out and an attempt was made to tighten the cable. Heavy rope and tackle were attaohed at the Danville end and while the crew aD plied their nnited strength to the rope something gave way on the opposite shore aud the cable fell slack into the river. AD investigation showed that the second pole on the Sooth side about oue hundred feet back from the one bearing the main support gave way owing to the soft natareof the ground and was pulled by the weight of the assemblage of wires down to the river bank where, held by the wires that were atill attached, it hong suspended from the top of the high pole that oar ried the cable. The tug of war lay in the effort to raise the cable from the river. In ac complishing this the river bridge stood in good stead. The sidewalk as far as finished afforded an excellout plaoefor the linemen. Kopes were attaohed to the cable and by meaus of rope and tackle it was drawn np onto the bridge. The work required the greater part of the afternoon. Nearly all the wire was saved, although it was broken or ont into many different sections. It is doubtful whether auy attempt will be made to re-establish the cable in its old position on the poles. Ow ing to the near completion of the bridge application will doubtless be made for permission to string the wires on that strootuie as was done when the old bridge stood. Among the wires that were destroy ed were all those loading to Riverside, the direot liue to Sunbnry and the di rect line to Shamokiu. While it is im possible to oommonicate with anyono in South Danville or Riverside it is still possible to talk to Sunbnry and Bhamokin by using the wire that ex tends aronnd by Milton. Late Developments Favor Nan Patterson NEW YORK, March 23.—Counsel for Nan Patterson stated today that they have now evidence whioh will free the act/ess when she is again brought to trial for the mnrder of Caesar Yoong, the bookmaker. MiBS Patterson was informed by Daniel O'Reilly,one of her counsel yes terday, that the defense had obtained possession of evidenoe showing that Caeser Young had a revolver the day before the sliootiDg whioh he had tak en away from his wife. O'Reily says when Young's trunk was returned to thiß oouutry from Europe several 82- oalibre revolver cartridges were found in it by Customs Inspector Arthur Soanlon. The district attorney's oflloe denied that Mrs. Young evor owned a revolver. The actress will be brought to trial early in April. The Host Satisfying Show. A minstrel show, with its beautiful first part setting, ballad singers, com edians, coon comedians,coon shouters, danoers and olio of specialty artists, oomes nearer satisfying theatre-goers of the present day than any other ef fort on the part of theatrical caterers. There is a happy abandon about the whole affair that makes one forget his troubles and beoome without retnot ance a part and paroel of the scenes. Gas Sun and his burnt cork organiza tion, who will appoar in this oity on Thursday evening, March 80th, at the Opera House promises an unusual moiioal festival and minstrel jubilee. Q. H. Kester, of Bloomsburg, was a visitor in this oity yesterday. CONTRACTORS ON JHBOUNDS Four oar loads of material have ar rived at Sonth Danville for the floor ing in the river bridge and work on that branch of the operation will no doubt begin in a few days. The United States Wood Preserving Company has the oontraot for putting dowu the dooring or pavement, which is something entirely new in these carts. The flooring will consist of a substructnre of concrete and another course of paving blooks. Caldwell. Barry & Leonard, who built the piers and abutments of the bridge, have the contract for patting down the con crete ; John Ed. Foley of New York, will lay the paving blooks. Both M r . Foley and representatives of the firm of Caldwell. Barry & Loonard, were in this city yesterday. During an interview Mr. Foley stat ed that the contractors were ready to begin work on the flooring. Four oar loads of material, he said, had arriv ed and were at Sooth Danville. Un fortnnately. however, the bridge was not iu such shape as to enable them to proceed at once. The bridge contract ors have not vet completed the iron work, but he seemed to regard the un finished condition of the Southern ap proach to the bridge as a worse ob stacle. In Mr. Foley's opinion it would require but three or four days more to finish riveting down the floor plates, while in view of the blocked condition and filling up required at the Southern abutment he would ven ture no opinion as to when things would be in such shape as to enable teams to pasu in order that floor ma terial could be delivered on the bridge. Mr. Foley returned to New York yes terday afternoon. The County Commissioners state that they will see to it as far as they are able that work is pushed along on the Southern abutment as rapidly as possi ble. Contractor Ellis Rank is ready to begin work filling up the abutment, but owing to the accumulation of bridge material lyiug all aboat the ap proach it is impossible for him to get into the bridge with his teams. As soon as it suits the convenience of the bridge people to open a way he will begin work on filling up the abutment. Ashes have been ordered aud these will be delivered by the Pennsylvania Railroad at South Dauville at any day. The Commissioners think that the abutmeut will be filled up so that teams can pass by the time that the bridge is ready for the flooring. If not,they claim.it will be au easy mat ter to construct a gangway at the abut ment 'or temporary me. Double Wedding Anniverary. Mr. and Mrs. E. O. Voris, of this city, yesterday rounded oat fifty yours of married life. They celebrated the event at the home of Mr. anil Mrs. William P. Voris at Northumberland, who were married on the Bame date. The day was fail of enjoyment to those participating and revived in memory many incidents,many pleasant piotares of life that belonged to that epoch a half a century ugo when those now old though with hearts none the less fond and loving, were just entering togeth er upon the threshold of married life. It proved to be the merest coinoid enoe that Elijah O. Voris of Danville and his brother William of Northum berland were united in matrimony on the same day. There wns nothing pre arranged about it and although the two couples took their wedding trip together the two brides had never met until stepping upon tho train after the ceremony. Mrs. E. C. Voris before marriage was Miss Julia Troxell, daughter of Benjaimu Troxell of Chillisquaque township, Northumberland connty. The wedding took place at the home of the bride on March 22, 1855, Rev. Samuel Barns, later Presiding Elder of this district officiating. William Voris was married in Dan ville, his wife before marriage being Miss Letitia Zuber.of this city.daugh ter of Captain Zuber,deceased for some years. Mr. and Mrs. Voris have spent their entire married life in Northum berland, where Mr. Voris couducts the blacksmithiug business. There was uothing whatever elabor ate about the celebration yesterday. Charles E. Voris as the only surviving child accompanied his parents to Northumberland. Mr. and Mrs. Will iam Gray of Williamsport.Mrs. James Minier, of Birmingham, Ala., and John B. Voris who resides with his parents at Northumberland were also present at the reunion. Mrs. Maria Kling of Lewisburg, who was brides maid to Mrs. William Voris fifty years ago, was Que of the honored guests. Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Voris went to housekeeping on Centre street, this oity, where they lived for 9 years, re moving later to the present homestead ou Ferry street,where they have resid ed for 41 years. William Voris is the younger broth er, baiug 75 yoars of age. Our towns man, E. C. Voris, will be 80 on his next birfiiday. He has lived in Dan ville 63 years. For 87 years he was employed at the Montour Iron Works, now owned and operated by the Read ing Iron Company. For 13 years of this time he was Superintendent of the Foundry and Machine shop. The two brothers wiio have rounded out fifty years of married life are the only survivors of a family of fourteen. Both oooples are in fairly good health and although not robust bid fair to survive for a good many years. They received many well wishes yesterday, the con gratulations coming with as much zeal and fervency as those inspired by the happy wedding half a century ago. Painfully Injured. Walter Metier, an employe at Curry & Company's machine shops was pain fully injured yesterday. Mr. Metier was liandliug a heavy casting on one of the oranes. when the retaining chains slipped, oausing the iron to fall on his left foot. Had the full foroe of the casting, whioh weigh ed about 850 pounds, struck him the injuries would no doubt have been more serious. The piece, however, straok glanoingly,tearing the flesh but not breaking any bones. ABBOB DAY INJHE SCHOOLS Apropos of the proclamation of Gov ernor Pennypacker designating April 14th and 88th as Spring Arbor days an ex-school director of town yesterday remarked upon the apparent lack of any practioal observauce of the day in D.inville. He reoalls tha time, fiftben to twenty years ago. when arbor day meant a good deal of work not only for teacher and pupils, bat also for the school directors. While the two form er were arranging programs and re hearsing for the eveut it devolved up on the school board to procure the trees, and to have a plaoe prepared for planting them, whioh involved not only the digging of the holes bat also the carting of fertile soil to the spot in whioh to embed the tender roots. Arbor day itself waßtoall intents and purposes a holiday iu school. All the grades participated in the exercises. There was always au address beariug on Forestry and the deplorable results following the destruotion of forests, while not the least interesting feature of the program was the aotual plant ing of the trees, the work Qf whioh to the smallest detail was done by the pupils under the supervision of the principal or one of the direotors. A program of recitation and singing, ap propriate to the matter in hand was rendered by the boys and girls begin ning in the sohool room and ending on the around l * outside where the glad some acclaim of children's voice 9 or more likely au appropriate song kept time to the shovelfuls of earth as they rained down upon the roots of the trees being planted. Similar scenes at the same hour were being enacted at each of the four school buildings iu the borough. Very mauy of our men and women approaohing middle life today, then pupils at the publio schools, will recall the old-time Arbor Days. In the aggregate scores of trees were plauted on the sohool properties alone and it is a reflection either upon the care accorded the growing shade trees or tho lack of adaptability on the part of the soil, more probably the latter, that soaioely one of the trees planted en Arbor Days of the past are stand ing at the present time. The latter fact is held responsible for the ohange in the manner of the day's observauce in Dauville. It is a fact, it is said, that each of the 8011001 buildings occupy sites where an im mense amount of filling up was requir ed at one time or another, oinder or gravel being employed in large quanti ties. Planting of trees on Arbor Day, whatever might be said of its value as au object lesson, or as a souroe of in spiration to the pupils so far as secur ing any immediate or practical results iu forestry is ooncorned, became a sheer waste of time. Actual tree plautiog, therefore, lias been eliminated from Arbor L)ay observance iu Danville. Upon inquiry, however, it is learned that tradltious are kept up by the ren dering of programmes appropriate to the event in nearly all of the rooms, which keeps the pupils in touoh with Arbor Day,and impart* instruction ou the value of tree planting and the im portance of preserving our forests. Former Resident Heard From. Three Rivers, March 20, 1905. Editor Intelligenoor I will drop a few liues that my old friends in Montour couuty may hear from me. We have hid a (ine wiuter here. It was not very cold except for a few days. We have a great deal of snow. At the present time the sleighing is about all gone in the city but iu the country districts there is plenty of snow and good sleighing. The winter grain looked fine last November, but little of it can bo seen yet by reason of the snow. Michigan is great for corn and pota toes; it is noted also for fruit of var ious kinds. Threo Rivers is a oity of the fourth class, haviug a population of 3'.H3. We have a high school build ing and this season will bnild a $20,- 000 school building; also a flooring mill of 100 barrels daily capacity as well as a number of dwelling houses.

P..will be held at the Armory next Saturday night at So'olock. Men will wear blue uniforms, blue flannel shirts, caps, waist belts and white gloves. Mem bers will report at 7:30 sharp for in structions before the inspection. 'FERRY SERVICE SOONTO RESDME Now that the ice from the headwat ers of the North Branoh has made a start on its joorney to the Chesapeake and since the greater part ot it has passed Danville on its journey South as soon as the river falls a few feet there will be nothing to prevent a re sumption of ferry servioe. There are a large nnmber of people on each side of the river who are very anxious to see the ferry in commis sion. It is troe foot people are per mitted to cross the bridge, but this only fills the bill In part. Takiug the traveling public into aocount, it matters hot little to a man that he is permitted to walk over the bridge if therejis no way of getting his inggage over the river. Neither does the unfinished bridge avail much to the large uumber of farmers on the opposite side of the river whose pro ducts help to replenish our stores and whose trade contributes a big item to our town's prosperity. So long as these farmers are unable to briug their load ed wagons aoross the river the mere privilege of walking aoross the bridge does not oonnt for muoh. Not only would the ferry if put into commission accommodate the classes above enumerated but its service woold be highly appreciated by our own townspeople, such as physicians who would be enabled to respond promptly to calls in Rush and Gearhart town ships and merchants, manufacturers and others who would be enabled to receive goods and expressage from South Danville. In view of the above facta the poblio does not aotioipate mooh delay in launching the ferry. It was the gen eral opinion yesterday that the Coun ty Commissioners are missing a fine opportunity by not launching the flat boat daring the freshet, while the water la at its height. With a very Blight effort at present the big flat oould be slid Into the water, whereas if the river is permitted to fall near low water mark the boat can only be lannohed at the expense of much labor and attendant oost. In all proba bility the boat will need calking and other repaira BO that at best there will be delay. Not a day therefore, should be lost. The County Oommiasioners no doubt will take the ptoper view of things and launch the ferry at ouce Boys' Bible Class. The regular monthly reoeptiou of the Thomas Beaver Boys' Bib!e Class of the Y. M. O. A. was held in Associa tion Hall laat night, with an attend ance of over 300 persons. Of this num ber 160 were members of the olasa. The porogram was under the direc tion of Misa Gußsie Bruder and Mrs. J. H. Johnson, with Mrs Emma Mo- Henry as accompanist. The singing of the boya was,as usual, a feature of tlie oocaaion. This was followed by Sjrip ture reading and prayer. The program, which was particular ly flue aud well rendered was aB fol lows : Piano Solo Miss Edith Jenkins Cornet 5010...

The aportsmen of thia vicinity have experienced bad luokwith the consign ment of young quail that arrived in this city about the firat of January, and whioh were to have been liberat ed early in the Spring. Of the 243 birds that were aent to Danville at that time only aeven are now alive. Many of (lie quail were dead when they reached this oily. The remainder of the consignment received the bOBt of oare, but notwithstanding the ef forts made to keep them alive, they pined away in their oaptivity and died. The birds received at the beginning of the jour were, however,only a part of the order. Subscription!* were rais ed to purchase 86 dozen quail. The remainder will be shipped dnriug this week, and the birds will be liberated aa aoou as they arrive. Notice of their expeoted arrival in this city will be Riven later; ao that the aabsciibers ■nay call «t the express offloe and ob tain their qaail. Will Picnic at Rupert. The convention of the O. U.

A. parlor, Monday morning an Advisory Corn mitteo was formed auxiliary to the .Pennsylvania Children's Home So ciety, a State institution takiug in all denominations, which has for its ob ject the care of homeless children. The Advisory Committee was formed as follows: President—Rev. M. L. Shindel, DJ* D., Vice President, Rev. George E. Limbert, D. D. ; Secretary, Rev. E. B. Dunn; Treasurer, Rev. William Mc- Oormack, D. D. The following lay representatives from the various churches were appointed on the Com mittee: St. Paul's M. E. church, Mrs. S. Y. Thompson; Shiloh Reformed church, Mrs. W. H. Orth; Grove Pres byterian church, Mrs. EdwardS. Gear hart; Mahoning Presbvterian church, Mrs. J. E. Moore ; Pine Street Luther an ohuroh.Mrs. F. G. School); United Evangelical ohurch, Mrs. J. M.

Myerly; Trinity Lutheran church, Mrs. A. O. Roat ; Christ Episcopal church, Mrs T. J. Price. The Pennsylvania Children's Home Society li HK nothing to do with the various orphanages or ohildren's homes in the State, which while they accom plish a mission have very little about them in couimou with the domestio life of a true home. The objeot of the Society in question is to find places for orphans or for children wlio.;e par ents are unlit or unable to keep them in the homes of good Christian people. The missionary of this district is Rev. JameH Furrey, of Scranton, to whom the Advisory Committee ap pointed yesterday stands in close rela tionship and which will co-operate with him in finding homes for chil dren. Should a child in Dauville or vicin ity need a home it will devolve upon the Advisory Committee to present the matter to the Distriot Missionary, who working through Advisory Committees elsewhere will find a suitable place for the dependent one. Un the other hand should a fnmilv here desire to take an orphan or other child into their home the Advisory Committee will be expected to furnish reliable and necessary information as to the standing of the family,whether or not it is of good Christian character and such as conld be expected to raise a child up in the way it should go. Sure He Drew a Prize. J. G. Hornet, the distillery gauger who advertised for a wife, and who, through the advertisemerit, obtained a wife in tho person of a Philadelphia girl, says ho thinks he has discov red a prize. Mr. Hornet's place of work Is at the McHeury distillery, near Bentou, but he is now temporarily staying at Forest Hill, near Lewisburg. A dispatch from Lewisbuig, printed in a Philadelphia newspaper yesterday morning sjya : Jewet G. Hornet, the "Barkis" of Union County,is evidently well pleas ed with the result of his matrimonial advertisement. Although he failed to marry Miss Gertrude McCoy, of Bucks County,ha still received offers of mar riage. From tho first lot of letters re oeived, Hornet read one, the contents of which so appealed to him that he decided that the girl should bo made Mrs. Homet. The choice of the 68- year-old widower was Miss Mary Elizabeth Brooks, of Philadelphia. Negotiations were at once opened, and on Tuesday, Hornet met his futnre wife at Miff Unburn. The ceremony was performed the next day by Rev. VT. Rue,of Mittlinburg, at the board ing house of the Hornets at Forest Hill. When questioned yesterday Homet said that his throe days of married life have proven that his bride possesses the qualifications enumerated in his advertisement. Ho said ; "My wife is 21 years old. She has beeu for several years a stenographer and typewriter in tho employ of a large manufacturing plant in the city of Philadelphia. She is an intelligent girl,of acheorfnl dis position, and it is remarkable how she has adapted herself to her new home. "Considering that she is a book keeper, I feel that she will be a great liolp to mo in my clerical work at Mc- Henry's distillery, at Benton, Pa., where in a week or so, we will goto live." Mrs. Homet said : "I find Jewet an affectionate husband and a charming companion. Although lie is 3? years my senior, I cannot help but love him. Mrs. Homet refused to give her ad dress in Philadelphia. In considera tion of the fondness of Mr. Hoiuet for Quaker City bread, and the refusal of his wifo to unme her former employes, it is thought by some that he may have married a professional baker in order to enjoy continually his favorite repast. In Honor of Col. Freeze. On April I'Jtli the bar association of the 26th Judicial district will tender a banquet in the Elks rooms, Hlooms bnrg.in honor of Col. John G. Freez", who will round ont 57 years as a mem ber of the Colombia county bar.
