USED SALVATION MY TACTICS A unique method of getting heaters to reoeive the Word was resorted to Suuday evening at the village of Al uietlia. Rev. Stover of the Evangelioal chnroh coaldn't get the congregation to come to him so he went to the con gregation. For several months interest in oharch work in the Evangelical chnroh of Al media had hoen ou the decline aud several Sundays when the good min ister Bev. Stover repaired to his ohnrcli to preach the Gospel he would find the pews empty. He was resourceful, however,and noticed that a large con gregation of men and hoys wero al ways gathered ou a Sunday evening at the oorner of the Englehart wagon j' shop, near the church. He deteriuiu -1 ed to have liearors enough even though • lie had togo where they were. ' ' Ou Sunday the minister with his 'choir stopped at the street oorner in stead of going onto the church and ; commenced the sorviott. A large nam ' 'ller of people were gathered together , on the steps and 011 piles of { luniber_and on old wagons. ' . ,'fhe choir sang several selections,the minister prayed aud preached a very instrnctive. and interesting sermon. At the close lie announced that services would again bo held at the same time and place in two weeks from Snnday evening. It was a strange procedure but it worked and Rev. Stover had a congregation. nid-Summer Seaside Trips.

HIGHWAY INSPECTED ANDAPPHOVED The State Highway Department does not find it clear sailing by any means in Its effoits to effoet a settlement with the Bupei visors of Mahoning township and tho»Coanty Commission ers of Montour for the highway com pleted between this oity and Mans dale. The State Highway Dapartment insists that the road is completed— that it ha" been inspected and approv ed by the piopcr authorities The Uahouing township supervisors and the County Commissioners insist that the ruad has not been finished accord ing to the specifications and refnse to pay their share of the bill, which is |llOB 49 more than the oontraot prioe, until a full explanation is given to show whore the additional eleven hun dred and odd dollars went to. The public will he glad to learn the true status of the State Highway. The road iu the opinion of many people doos not come np to the'specifioations. They were curious to know how It would be regarded by the inßpootors lepreseuting the State and np to the present have be in expecting the ap pearance of theseotlioials. It will be news indeed to these people to learn that the inspectors hare oome and gone. When these otllaials performed their duty aud how their visit to Dan ville happened to esoape notice prob ably has but little to do with this storv Iu Jnne 28th last R. S. Ammeiman, attoruey for Mahoning township.in re ply to the communication fioui the State presenting the bill wrote the Highway Department that payment would be made as soon a 9 the State highway was completed acoording to plans aud specifications and asked for an explanation as to an item of 1346.70 relating to inspection which appeared ou the till. Mr. Aiumermau stated that the township supervisors would be glad togo over the road with the inspectors at any time. A reply from tlio State Highway de partment on June 29th. brought the surprising intelligence that the road had already boeu formally inspected by the department aud that the item relating to inspection oovered the sal ary paid the inspector whom the De partimut employed duriug the prog ress of the work and who was present every day from the time he was ap pointed until the work was complet ed. The communication stated that there was no reason why the Connty Commissioners oi township Supervis ors should kuow when the inspectors would be on h tud and hence were uot notified. To this communication on Jane 80, Attoruey Aiumermau replied: "As Mahoning township and Montour County have obligated themselves to pay a proportionate share of the oost of the public impiovement in question the Supervisors mid County Commis sioners reserve to themselves the right of kuowing where the people's money is going to and the consideration iu every detail for the money they pay ; they aie answerable to their respec tive boards of auditors whose duty it is to confine them closely to the provis ions uf the coutiact the law authorized them to enter into. We have no con fidence iu the inspector whom you suggest as being present. My olients insist upon such an explanation of all the circumstances as will justify them iu making this expenditure of their money. Tin township's contract calls for an expenditure of tl 127.09 ; you ask us to pay (1379.84 and the only reason you assign is that the work has been fouud satisfactory to your department; this is insufficient reason to warrant us iu the expenditure of this money at this time. " To this aame a reply from the State Highway Depaitment, dated July Bth, wliioli jaired the Supervisors some what, being uot only exceedingly dis courteous in tone but showing that iu the Highway Department not a very high estimate is placed npon the skill aud experieuoe of township Sup ervisors as roadmakers. The com munication stated: "As to the oliar actei of the road I think it question able if any oue of several uovices In road building are justified in setting tiieir opinion against that of the rep resentative of this department, who made the final inspection of the road. The amouut of presumption which suoli an action shows is very similar to that wliijli would be shown lu case some of your township supervisors should assume to know more about law than you kuow." Tills then is the status of affairs por taiuiug to the State Highway. The township Supervisors insist that they are able to determine whether or not the plans and specifications have been ooinpliod with and allege that in sev eral important details these have not been lived np to. They also hold that they are entitled to an itemized state ment wliioli will fully acoonnt for the extra eleven hundred dollars or so that has been tacted on. The contract prioe for the toad was <6766. 15. What the outcome of the matter may be is un certain. It does uot seem uulikely that a law suit may follow brought about by the Maryland Construction Corn pany iu order to obtain its money. Surprise Party.

QUARRhL HAY END IN MURDER With a ballet hole through his head and one in Ilia neok, Joe Grandronno is lyiug at point of death at the Min ers' Hospital at Fairmount Springs, while the wouhl-tie murderer made liis escape, and the causes leading to the commission of the crime, while primar ily due to pay day at the colliery aro complicated,the crime being committ ed while an attempt was beiug made to arrest Centraila foreigners who had previously pulled a gun on Charleß Fetterinan, of Centralia,the crime be iug committed by a foreigner who was leading the officers to the scene of tne former crime, aud at a time when it was his life or Grandrouuo's. The quarrel started in a row of booses on East Railroad street, Centralia, about nine olclook, Saturday evening. Italians lived in one end of the row ; Charles Fetterman in the middle, aud Polauders at the otlior end. It had been pay (lay Saturday and Nicholas Grnudrouno started a fight with John Bracouey, a Polish family, the latter alleging that Nicholas was attempting to force an entrance into liis house. Joe Scounioner sided in with Nicholas as did Charlio Miller and Touie Grand ronno, while Charlie Fetterman aud several of the Polauders sided in with Brnconey. Nothing more than fists were used uutil Joe Grandronno pull ed a guu on Charles Fetterman, shoot ing him in the shoulder. Information was then lodged against Joe aud the crowd by Brnconey and the warrants placed in the bauds of Constables Langdon and Oaiu, who seouretl John Conway aud Mike Grant to accompany them. With them was a foreigner to identify the guilty men. When the ooustables aud their as sistants entered the house they found about tweuty foreigners thore but not the men they wanted. Caiu, Conway aud Grant started upstairs with tlio light while Laugdon remained down stairß in the dark. A minute later he hoard a shot out side, aud rushing out he fouud Joe Grandronno aud the Polauder who had acconipauied them to identify the guilty parties faoiug each other. Joe had been in hidiug under the porch audit was for him that Cain aud the assietauts were upstairs. His idea had been undoubtedly to pick off the Po lander aud the coustables as they left the house, hnt he failed beoause the Polauder had not entered the house. Who fired tlio first shot is not known, but the general expression of opinion is that Joe had fired first. When Con stable Laugdon appeared they had been blazing at each otlier.and the Polaud er mistaking hint for a foreigner, turn ed his gun on him. Laugdon quickly yelled to him, and fearing that if lie shot his assailants still in the house would fare ill, Laugdon kept his fire in reserve, but stood gun in hand. Quick as a flash tlio Polander turn ed his gun on Joe aud firing twice fellod him in his tracks, with a ballet in his head aud oue through his neck. Seeing what he had done, the Polaud er fled and has not yet been captured. The victim was then'takeu to the Min ers' Hospital, where an oporatiou was performed yesterday morning, and information from tlio hospital is to the effeot that the victim's condition was a trifle more favorable yesterday. Nicholas Grandronno, who started the first fracas, has escaped, but Joe Scouuionder, who assisted Nicholas, Charles Miller aud Tony Grandronno were arrested, the latter two securing bail, which the first named failed to secure, and because of that is now in the Columbia County jail. Summer Fours—Niagara Won derland. For generations Niagara Falls has been the great objective point for toarists in the United States, and de spite the prophecies of 1113117 savants, it is likely to continuo so for many more generations. j Iu early years a Niagara Falls trip was very expensive,the property own eis. guides, oibmen, eto., vying as to who conld quickest (lraiu the pockets of the tourists. But this is all chang ed, the state of New York oil the one side aud the Proviuce of Ontario on the other having reserved for Pablio Parks the best situations adjacent to the Falls, with froe admissions aud a low rate of charge for licensed car riages being rigidly enforced by the Park Commission. Oue speoial expensive trip was the view of the rapids, hut now the Nia gara Gorge Railroad Co. running a line of trolley cars ou each side of the Rapids, affords a fine view of the whirlpool, etc. One Bpecial poiut of Niagara Fulls is that it does not fall on the senses af ter one view, on the contrary, new beauties are dlscernable as ofteu as visited aud mauy persons assert that the best of its beauty is uot seen uu til the third or fourth visit.

Sanders.of Wilkesbarre, the well-kuowu newspaper niau and former resident of Danville, was very badly hurt in au automobile aooideut ou Sunday evening. Ur. Sanders was enjoying a ride in au automobile along with his son-io law, and daughter. Dr. Morgan Weller aud wife. They attempted to cross the tracks of the Pennsylvania Railroad at South Wilkesbarre and failing to seo the approach of a freight train, which was running backward, they were struck, the forward oar catting the automobile in two. That they were > not all killed is truly miraonlous. The following particulars of the ac i cident are taken from the "Wilkes barre Leader": "A coal train was backing up aud ; it struok the machine squarely in the middle breaking it into kindling wood | aud throwing out the ocunpants. Ur. ' Sanders was dragged over a hundred teet and when picked up was nnoonsc ' ions. His leg was fraotured below the knee and he was removed to Meroy hospital. Or. and Mrs. Weller were ' also badly shaken up. The former had his back bruised. All are still at the hospital. Dr. Weller Btated last evening that ' they were taking a pleasure trip around the city in an automobile of the Dor yea make. "Mrs. Woller was in the front seat while Dr. Weller and Mr. : Sanders occapied the rear. They weut down Oarey avenue aud over Divisiou street to Barney aud were on their 1 way up Barney street. As they neared the Pennsylvania railroad traoks there, a coal train was baoking dowu the tracks at a fair rate of speed. The eugine of the train evideutly was doing some switching in the yards. He said there was a brakemau on the back eud of the car who mo tioned to the occnpauts to cross the tracks. Tiie doctor then started the maohine slowly across the tracks, but the train had gaiued ou them quite rapidly. He saw then that it was impossible to reverse the machine so he pullod the lever baok to the fast speed with the intention of darting past the train, but in another instant there waß a crash and the machine was hurled dowu the tracks. As soon as the train struck the auto Mrs. Weller jumped but tills was Im possible for Dr. Weller aud Mr. Sand ers as they were hemmed In. Dr. Wal ler later escaped but Mr. Sanders was dragged aloug the traok in the auto. The train v/as Dually brought to a stop aud those who saw the accident rushed down the tracks. The pieceß of the automobile, which was com pletely smashed, were strewn all over the tracks aud Mr. Sauders was piok ed up unconscious. All thought that he had been killed but after ho was removed to Nagle's drug store he re vived and it was then ascertained that his right leg below the kuee was bad ly broken, but that, besides a gash on his forehead, he was uot otherwise in jured. Considering that he is 72 years of age his escape was miraculous." Jeremiah S. Sanders, the Injured man, is a brother of Thomas Sanders, of this city. He is a brother-in-law of S. J. Welliver aud of Mrs. Oharles N. Ammerman, of Riverside. He was born in Danville and many years ago was publisher and editor of the "Dan ville Intelligencer."

AN OLD VADLT JSJJNCOTERED P. J. Reefer with liia crew of work men while exoavating for tho new sewer at the roar of Mill street Mon day morning laid bare a curious relic of earlier Danville in the form of a vault built of solid masonry some ten feet below the surface. The trench for the pipe, which at that point is some thirteeu feet deep was dug through the Laubach lot and is being exteuded to the D. L. & W. traok. Just outside the fence aud some twenty feet from the track the work men oame to the old vault. All that portion nf town lias been tilled up with cinder, ashes and like material to a depth of seven to ten foet, the made grouud resting upon a deposit of soft olay. The surprise of the work men, who had fouud digging easy,up on oomlug upon the solid masonry cau easily be imagined. An investigation showed that the vault was of Btone, a perfect arch in form aud of flrat-olasß workmanship. It was oompletely hidden below the natural doposit of olay, which is proof that it existed in the remote day be fore there was any building iu that part of town. The trench outs right through the old vault. The latter is found to be some eight feet long by Beveu feet in diameter. Whether anythiug of any sort remained in the vault or not could not be determined yesterday, as the workmen hardly appreciating the im portance of their And in breaking through the walls threw the stoues aud dirt right aud left in the old vault half filling it up. The queer discovery aroused a good deal of interest yesterday aud the spot was visited by a good mauy people. The faot was clearly established that the vault belonged to a by-gone gen eration and it is exceedingly doubtful whether there are any iu Danville even among our ootogenarians who can re call anythiug relatiug to the vault. David Slielliart yesterday stated that lie has been located on that spot for over fifty years and uever heard any thing of the old vault. He began there in 1850, which was a year .at least be fore Christian Laubacli erected the building which at present abuts ou the railroad,although the railroad was not built until many years afterward. Mr. Slielliart is familiar with all the developments in that looality aud cb peolally with all the Improvements made on the Lanbaoh property aud he Ib convinced that the vault was main tained by a former generation. Boyd Gearhart spent his boyhood on that spot; Ills memory goes back aB far as Mr. Shelhart'B and he is unable to reoall anything that would suggest the presence of a vault. There was a woollen mill which stood somewhere near that spot ill the early days of the town, but whether the old vault was an appurtenance of the factory Is not easy to determine. There is something exceedingly in teresting abont the strange vault,firm ly built aud hidden deep in tiio earth, and people are naturally ourious to "know what part it played in the town's early days. Perhapß some of our old timers after talking over the matter will arrive at some conolusion which will help to clear op the mystery. JOHNSTOWN FLOOD OPPOSITE STEEL PIER The flood wliioli devastated Johns town, Pa., aud the Oonemaugh Val ley, May SI, 18811, is to be shown in oyoloramio form in AtiantiaCity with a vividness bordering on actuality. Ou tli'j Boardwalk,opposite the new Steel Pier, there lias been constructed a building for this production, which affords every faoility forAich purpose. It is open to the publio every day aud evening, excepting the Sabbath, at hourly intervals, this great historic diama will be enacted. The buildiug which cost |so,ooo,has a frontage of 50 feet and extends outwardly so as to give a depth of 80 feet for the stage— the largest of the kind iu the country. It is owned by Randolph MoNutt, of Buffalo, N. Y., and is under the man agement of Harry D'Esta. Tli eie au enormous electrlo light plant, with prisms or oolor soreens, attached and bo arranged as to give a wonderfully real istic effect to the rushing waters and the upturned land. There are drawing rooms,deoorated with ohoioe paintings depioting interesting scenes, retiring rooms and cozy smoking rooms. In this way those awaiting eutranoe to the auditorium can pass the time with out annoyance or inoonveuienoe. Of the oyoloramio exhibition it can be Baid to be simply marvelous in its real ism. Real water seems to be rushing down the valley from South Forks Dam,houses seem to tumble aud be carried of by the flood, the surging waters seem to rise up over the Oon emaugh bridge aud swirl around Hollow signal station, real bodies seem to be dashed down the creek—ill faot, the whole production has a life like appearance that is sterling in its in tensity. There is shown Johnstown as it was before the flood, as it appeared after the waters subsided, aud as it ls.today. The celebrated Cambria Iron Works and the Gautier Wire Works are shown, and also the bills on tiie other side of the town in which the people sought safety. There also is shown the brave John Baker as lie dashed dowu from the broken dam shouting to the people of Johnstown to flee from the comiug tidal wave. The St. Louis day express, which was caught iu the flood, is seen, while the first seotiou which ran out of the death trap holds au important place iu tiie exhibition. drocer Builds a Wagon. A finely lettered delivery wagon,be longing to Phillips' grooery, is seeu upon the street. The wagon has been rebuilt as the result of au aocidont, which divested it of its top. Tiie new top was made by Mr. Phillips, him self,who never learned wagon makiug but is a natural mechanio. The let tering was done by Chris Hershey. The running gears of tha wagon, too, were made by Mr. Phillips some years ago.
