    NATIONAL lILITARY I
HOIE_AT DAYTON
William Wallace,a Danville veteran,
at present an inmate of the National i
Military Home at Dayton, Ohio, has i
arrived in this oity on a visit and Is
snugly domiciled at the Heddena i
House. -
Mr. Wallaae oame to Danville in
1866. He enlisted from here and after
the war waß over he returned to our
town and resided here until about
three years ago when he entered the
Military Home. He ia an able musio
ian and playß in the Military band at
the Dayton Home. He is at present
enjoying a furlough.
, The soldiers' home at Dayton is an
enormous institution, oovering six
. hundred and forty aoresof land. There
tare five thousand inmates at the home,
j bnt a circumstance illustrating how
,fast the old soldiers are passing away
is the pathetio faot that in the oeme
tery connected with the home ten
thousand veterans lie sleeping, who
•onoe were inmates but have answered
the last roll call. Mr. Wallaoe says
that on the average there are probably
three funerals a day. The numerous
deaths are tAken as a matter of course
and while they may have a depressing
effeot on a limited cirole as they relate
to the entire home, wliioh resembles a
large community in itself, they may
be said to pass unnoticed.
That Uncle Sam treats hiß defenders
most generously will be gathered from
the faot that the ex-soldlers at the
Home are permitted to retain their
pensions, are clothed and fed besides
and whenever they do any work for
the Home are paid for it. The disci
pline is strict, but Mr. Wallace says
that any one in the least circumspect
and considerate has an easy and a
pleasant time of it. Life is never dull
especially during the summer, when
the Home Is visited by thousands of
persons daily.
ATHENS—-WHERE
PAUL PREACHED
In the seventh address of the series
being delivered in Association Hall
General Seoretary William D. Lau
master took as his snbjeot Sunday
afternoon "Athens Where Paul
Preaohed." The talk proved to be no
less interesting and instructive than
did the preceding addresses.
During the uourse of the meeting
Miss Emma Gearhart rendered two
solos with pleasing effect. Miss Ruth
Gearhart was the accompanist.
Mr. Laumaster said in part: "The
pilgrims to the World's Sunday School
Convention sailed for some time on
the Aegean Sea, that part of the Medi
terranean which lies between Greeoe
on the Weßt, European Turkey on the
North, and Asia Minor on the East.
Its length is about 400 miles and its
greatest width over 200 miles. We en
tered the harbor of the Pirano—the
part of Athens five miles from the
oity, through a narrow channel be
tween the breakwaters.on Maroh 25th.
Here we remained for two dayß and a
half, making frequent trips in small
sailing boats from onr ship to the
dock, from whenoe we proceeded by
train to Athens theoapital and largest
oity of Greeoe."
"The harbor at Pirano, where our
boat anchored, is a beautiful place,
and was filled with Bailng vessels,men
of war and boats of every description.
A veritable network of masts, spars,
sails and flags of all nations were seen
on all sides, making a most delightful
and inspiring picture. As usual we
had not been long in the harbor before
our vessel was surrounded by moroh
ants from the oity, who came to offer
their wares for sale to tiie tourists.
After a description of the boats, the
people on shore, the oars aud the ride
to Athens Mr. Laumaster spoke as fol
lows of the oity itself: "Modern Ath
ens is a beautiful city, aud delightful
ly located. Some of the streets are
broad aud the sidewalks of proper
width, but as a role the streets and
sidewalks are narrow. Marble is used
extensively aud there are many beauti
ful buildings oomposed entirely of
marble. The stores, bazaars, hotels
and markets are. in most respectß.like
other places, exoept that the wares
offered for Bale are the produota of the
people. There are telephones, eleotrio
lights and street cars drawn by horses
hitohed three abreaßt. Horses and
donkeys are the bnrden bearers."
Mr. Laumastei gave vivid descrip
tions of Athens aud of the many places
of historical interest iu the vioinity of
the oity. "The Stadum.or race course"
he said "was laid out in 330 B. 0., in
a natural hollow, the oomplete length
of the oourse being 670 feet. King
George had it excavated about 85 years
ago, and reoently an Athenian gentle
man has rebuilt the whole Stadinm in
white marble. It is said that it will
now seat 50,000 people. "
"The twelve remaining oolnmus of
the Temple of Zens are magnifloent
specimens of Grecian architecture.
The Arch of Hadrian.B9 feet high and
40 feet wide was originally adorned
with Ooriuthian oolumm. aud formed
the approach to the immense Temple
of Zens.
"The Greeks aro intelligent and
onliared people. Eduoutioa is com
pulsory, but the law is poorly oarried
oat in tho oountry districts, hence SO
percent, of the army recruits are il
literate. In their bazaars and on the
principal streets can be seen men en
gaged in all sorts of occupations.
Greek soldiers are in evidenoe every
where. There are also to be seen many
priests and monks in their peculiar
garbs.
"In oue of the pnblio gardens of
Atliens near the Temple of Olympian
Zens stand a fine recent statue of By
ron. Greece remembers his interest in
her fight for liberty, aud shows her
love for the poet who stirred the heart
of the world in favor of her people."
Eagles National Convention.
Considerable interest is already be
ing manifested in the forthcoming na
tional convention of the Fraternal
Order of Eagles, to be held during the
latter part of August in Denver, Col
orado.
FRDiT NOT SO BADLY
DAIAGEDJY FBOST
State Eoonoinio Zoologist Surface is
not inclined to be pessimistic in re
gard to the damage done the fruit crop
by the reoent frosts. From the uu
ofticial reports he has thns far receiv
ed he is of the opinion that the bud
ding orchards are in far better condi
tion than has been Indicated.
Iu that section of the State lying
immediately north of Harrisburg the
fruit is badly injured,just how badly,
it will be impossible to say for several
weeks to come.
Iu the fertile Cumberland Valley,
which is rapidly taking the lead among
the fruit-producing centers of the East
reports conflict. Some say that all
orops have been absolutely ruined;
while otiiers say that no injury what
ever has been sostained. The faot that
the reports are so positive and so
diametrically opposed to eaoh otlur is
taken as the very best possible indica
tion that the damage done, however,
severe it may be, is merely local and
i does not extend through the length
and breadth of the Valley.
I The peaoh crop is liatnrally most
i affected by the blighting breatli of tlie
[ frosts, but pears and apples liavo also
i been badly nipped in plaaes. It is safe
i to say that cherries have escaped with
' bnt slight injury.
One of the most encouraging features
9 of the reports whioh have readied Pro
i fessor Surface is the fact that prao
' tioally no iujury has been received by
r fruit trees cultivated along the font
9 hills adjoining the mountains. This
r is hailed as an unmistakable iudica
- tlon that the killing frosts have been
a restricted in territory and that the low
t lying orchards have iu all probability
» Buffered only locally.
THE AUTO-BOLIDE.
A Dip of Death Which Makes the
Heart Stand stlll.
Arrangements have been completed
whereby the Barnum & Bailey Great
est Show on Earth will positively ex
hibit in Shainokin on Uay 24th. This
is indeed good news for the people of
this city, as it will give all an oppor
tunity to see this troly marvolous tent
ed aggregation. For a high-olass,refin
ed and moral entertainment, the Bar
num & Bailey Show lias always been
in a class by itself, and the visit of
this stupendous organization to th's
vioinity will be the amoseinent treat
of the season. The world's greatest
and most sensationalacts will be offer
ed by the show this year, and the
multitude of startling exhibitions will
be headed by the most thrilling act of
trae nervo and grit ever seen in Am
erica—Mile. Maaricia de Tiers, a
beautiful and dashing Freuoh gill,
looping the gap in an automobile. For
nerve of a>i increditable magnitude
this now famous feature termed tlio
"Auto-Bolide Dip of Death" is be
yond description and belief. The same
presentation as given in Madison
Square Garden, New York,daring the
spring season will be exhibited in its
entirety, with the extraordinary feats
of marvelous aerial work introducing
the renowned Imperial Viennese
Troupe, grand hippodrome,exhibitinns
of dating and bravery, an avalanche
of ouinedy by the thirty downs, the
oongress of earth's wonders culled
from the forests of ouriosities, the
grand double menagerie of the rarest
specimens o( wild beasts in captivity
and the almost impossible foat of the
Brothers Auoillotti looping and leap
ing simultaneously the quadruple
chasms, makes the show without an
equal in the world.
The managers of the Barnum &
Bailey Show announce that the par
ade will be abandoned this year, but a
wonderful exhibition of daring will be
given on the circus grounds free,short
ly before the opening of the doors.
TIIIB new polioy is to be commended,
as the public has grown uninterested
in the time-worn circns parade, and
Barnum & Bailey are now centering
all of their time, money and attention
in the show itself, thereby, more than
ever, keeping faith with the public.

Two GOLU I)Inut ICII letter &u (J jiuck!i|{o
boxes arrived at the local post office
yesterday, which iu a shr jr t tj me w m
be installed on onr stre' -tp, where they
will prove objects of much interest,as
nothing of the kind haH ever been seen
in any of the towns in the central part
of the State,if even iirtho larger cities.
They are something in a manner new.
Wheu first seen sitting along the
street they will no doubt excite much
wonder and will be assooiated with
anything else than a letter box. They
are cabinet-like in form, uearly two
feet sauare and four feet high, made
of sheet steel and paintod aluminum
oolor.
In the top of the box is a compart
ment, constructed somewhut on the
principle of the letter boxes, which
will admit newspapers as well as
packages nearly as large as a man's
head. Immediately below is a slot to
admit letters. Near the base of the
box is a large door which resembles a
closot. Opening this on his rounds the
carrier will find the collection of pick
ages, which have dropped down from
the top. Immediately above this is a
smaller compartment, which being
opened reveals thu letters,
i One of these boxes will be placed on
Mill street t>omewinnj near Market
i street and the other at the lowor end
i of Mill street near Bloom street. They
will prove of great convenience to the
people, who previously when they had
uewgpapers or packages to mail wore
i obliged to walk to the post office.
Supplied With Cards.
All Reading railroad men have been
supplied with air brake credential
cards, showing that they passod the
examiuaton, which they will he re

INTERESTING GAME
OL EASE BALL
The game of base ball between the
Sunbury High school aud the Old
Timer Reserves of this city last Sat
urday afternoon was played at the
Nail Mill grounds and was witnessed
by a good-sized crowd. Sunbury had
slightly the better of it as will be seen
by the score.
The game did not begin until late in
the afternoon owing to the fact that
our players thought the game would
be called off owing to the weather and
were a little plow in getting up to the
grounds.
The game was close and interesting.
Both pitchers did good work, Nipple
stribng out 9 men. Welliver had six
to his credit. Each side had a double
play. For Sunbury Fasokl, Dithl and
Messimer did the act. Danville's
double went by the Evan*, Welliver,
Joliuson route and was a very much
quicker play than Sunbury's. Ober
dort of the local team made a long hit,
which lookod like a foul, but did not
start to run till the umpire called it a
fair ball. After making the circuit of
the banes bringing iu Welliver he was
deolared out for not starting to run
aftar lie had hit the ball. Roberts hit
a neat one over the left fielder's head
for three bags. Sunbury had ID long
| hits that counted The game was um
pired by Frank Magill.

Engineer's Painful Injury.
Charles Waguer, engineer at tiie
Standard Electric Light Company's
plaut, met with a bail accident, Satu
rday, which came near resulting in the
loss of a finger. While at work the
second flngor on his left liund was
caught between the eccentric and
the governor of the engine iu such a
way as to maugle it dreadfully.
Mr. Wagner was removed to his
home at Grand and Nassau streets.
Drs. Newbaker and Sliultz wereoalled
in attendance. There was little hope
at first of saving the injured finger,
but later ou tlia dootors became more
confident. Every effoit will be made
to avert amputation. Mr. Waguer was
doing very well yesterday.

i BROTHER OF
LEWIS BYERLY
J. P. Byerly, brother of oar towns
mau, Lewis Byerly, oue of the early
pioneers of Freaport, 111., died at the
home of liia sou. Charles B. Byerly, at
that place, on April 16, 1905.
The Freenort Daily Journal of April
17 has the following obituary:
J. P. Byerly, like many of the other
sturdy pioneers of this oity and oouu
ty, was a native of Pennsylvania. He
was born in Northumberland oounty,
Deoember 5, 1834, being a member Qf
one of the most prominent families in
that statu. In his early mauhood he
learned the trade of tailor. In 1849 he
set ODt for the west and first located
at Cedarville. A year later he remov
ed to Froeport, which city he claimed
as his homo nntil his death. Soon af
ter coming here he opened a tailor
shop in a small baildiug where ,1. 11.
Staver's shoe store now stands. He
was successful in bnsiuess aud la'er he
went on the roid for C. Aaltman &
00., of Oanton. Oiiio, whom ho lep
resented for twenty-five years. For
the past twelve years he has led a re
tired life, spending his summers witli
his daughter, Mrs. Ooggswell, at Two
Harbors, Miuu., and his winters here
with his son
Mr. Byerly always took an aotive
part in the munioipal afiairs o? the
oity aud at all times he took a firui
stand for good government. When
Freeport was incorporated as a city in
1855, Mr Byerly was chosen to repre
sent his ward in the oity counoil aud
served two terms in that oipaoity.auil
I at his death he was the only surviving
j member of the first two city councils,
of Fneporr. He took a stand for lion
est oity government and held to the
view that an alderman was but the
servant of the people aud their wishes
in all mattors pertaining to the affairs
of the oity should be rebooted. He
had an honored record a* a publio
official, and while he never sought
political honors he never shirked a
responsibility in his life.
When a young mau of twenty yrars
lie united with the Seoouil Presbyter
ian church of this city, and Tor over
sixty years lie was a pillar of that
churoli and a regular attendant when
in the city. He was a consistent Christ
ian and lived ap to the teachings of
the oliuroh in all respects. In his death
the oliurch has lost a loyal member.
Mr. Byerly was married in li s na
tive State February 22, 1849, to Miss
Ann Hartnian.who died here ill March
1892.
Mr. Byerly is survived by two ohil
dreu—Mrs. Coagswell and O. B By
erly, aud both were at the bedside of
their father when he passed away.
I Mr. Byerly had boen in feeble health
I all winter, but until the last he was
vigorous mentally and was fully aware
that his hours were numbered. Few
indeed were better prepaied to go. All
his life he had but oue rale: that was
to fear God and beep his command
ments. He was a man of great force
aud energy and iu early days of this
community lie was a power for good
and always had the respect and esteem
of his fellow men. Iu his old age tie
retained his cheerful disposition aud
was beloved by all who kuew him.
Honest aud honorable iu his transac
tions, a Christian gentleman and a
man who was unselfish in thought,
word and aotion. He did tnuoli to build
up this oommuuity aud leaves a wide
circle of friends to mourn his demise.
The railroad authorities are showing
oommendable aotivity in their move
ments to prevent illegal car riding.
That they are determined to stnp this
practice is ludloated by the arrests
made within the past two weeks for
such trespass on their roads. The fel
lows who indulge in this Illegal aud
dangerous habit should take warning.

CRIMINAL COURT
A FARCE
Jodge Clinton R. Savidge.ln North
umberland county ooort yesterday said
that criminal ooort waa more or a
farce,especially in that and other coal
region counties of the commonwealth,
as folly nine-tenths of the cases were
trivial aud unworthy the atteotion of
any court and jury.
The prosecotlous, he said, were
brought by some high-tempered wom
an, drunken man or some other irre
sponsible party. The majority of eases
are composed of the leavioga after the
justices of the peace hare disposed of
all the cases in which they conld se
cure their costa without making a re
turn.
RUSSIAN FLEET i
STILLJN HIDING I
TOKIO, May B. It is now rumored
that the destination of all [lie Russian
fleets is Petropavlovsk, in Kamchatka,
a peninsula in Northeastern Asia, ex
tending into the Paoilic ocean and
separating Bearing Sea from the sea
of Okhotsk, instead of Vladivostok.
The Russians, it is stated, have been
accumulating eoal at Petropavlovsk,
but it is inadequate for laud defense.
Petropavlovsk is the capital of Kam
ohatka and is looated on the east ooast
of the peniusula on the bay of Avatcha.
It is about 1,200 miles north east of
Vladivostok in a straight line and the
Russians will have to sail a greater
distance to make it by sea. The port
ia small and the normal population
is under 1,009. It is the principal
military station of Russia in that re
gion.
Governor Pennypacker is getting
near to the bottom of that big pile of
bills.
