AN OLD RESIDENT
_PASSES AWAY
Another one of our very old residents
■i U»gau life in Danville early in
the first half of the last century was
called from earth Tuesday The last
to aiwri*»£tli«di&*l't«uininoiis was Mrs
Mary Sidler. widow of Beujamiu Sid
f-'ier, rWho departed this life nearly
thirty years ago.
Mrs. Sidler was within a few days
of being 87 years of age. She resided
with her son, W. R. Sidler, Walnut
■treet, aud was very widely known.
She was ill foi about three mouths,
suffering with a complication of dis
eases incidental to people of advanced
years.
With the exception of a defect in her
hearing the deceased was in full pos
session of her faculties aud was re
markably well preserved. She read
the dally papers, her mind waß well
stored with faots and she took an ac
tive iuterest in the affairs of life.
Mrs. Sidler spent nearly the whole of
her married life iu Danvillo. With hor
husband she went to housekeeping
near tlio P. &R. depot. The house
next to George A. Moyer's hotel, now
occupied by Olareuoe Rauck's grocery,
was built by Mr. and Mrs. Sidlor. It
was one of the fimt lionseß ereoted in
of town and oame into ex
istence about the time that the Uat2-
wlssa Railroad was built. The Rail
road Oompany in the early days burn
ed wood in their looomotives. Mr.
Sidler was employed by the railroad
and it was his work to prepare aud
pile up the wood for the locomotives.
Mrs. Sidler was a member of St.
Paul's M. E. church. During recent
years, however, she was not an at
tendant at servico owing to her de
fective hearing, which made it im
possible for her to take iu the sermon.
In additiou to W. R. Sidler, the de
ceased is survived by three sons:
Philip Sidler, Ohuroh street; George
Sidler, near the P. & R. depot; and
D. V. Sidler, of Milton. George Hun
look, the watchman at the Railroad
Btreet orossing of the D. L. & W. rail
road, is a grandson of the deceased.
In addition to Mr. Hnulock there are
a large number of other grandohilden
and upwards of a half a dozeu great
grandohildren.
The fnneral will take place from the
residence of W. R. Sidler, 218 Walnut
street, Friday at 2 p. m. Interment
will be made in Odd Fellows' oeme
tery.
Bloomsburg Will Pave.
Bloomsburg has decided to follow
the example of Danville and go luto
the street paving business. What is
more It has awarded the uoutract to
D. J. Kogers. a Danville man, who
has made such a success of street pav
itig in Danville.
The matter was disposed of at a
special meeting of the Town Oouuoil
kt Bloomsburg Uonday night. There
were only three bids submitted. The
first bid opened, that of Thomas Oor
rey, was thrown out because it was
not acoompanied by a certified ohock
of (200 as oalled for by the specifica
tions.
The next bid, that of O. B. Hellick,
contained nothing regarding ourbiug,
wliioh was provided for iu the specifi
cations.
The third and last hid was that of
D. J. Rogers who agreed to pave with
Boiitfai brick for (2.32 per square yard.
Porter briok J2.23 per square yard,aud
Maok briok (2.21 per square yard. For
the curbing the bid as follows: Blue
stono 75 cents per foot; Ohio stone tffi
cents per foot; Reset ourbing 18 cents
per foot. This bid also had a certified
oheok in the sum of (200 enclosed. ,
O. B. Meltick bad agreed to pave
with Bolivar brick at<2.2o,wliioh was
a little less thau Mr. Rogers' bid, but
as the latter was the only bidder dho
had complied with the specifications
on motion It was deoided to pave with
Bolivar brick and use blue stoue for
ourbing and the coutraot was award
ed to D. J. Rogors.
Oentre street Is the thoroughfare that
Is to be paved.
Block System Established,
The blook system has been establish
ed on the Oatawlssa division of the
Columbia aud Montour Kleotrio Rail
road. This will greatly faoilitate the

and D. and B. lines.
A NATIVE OF
IUNTOOR COUNT?
Robeit M. Bailey, a native of Mon
tour county, one of the original pro
jectors of the telephone and a man of
prominence passed away at his home
1820 West Fourth street, Willlamsport
at 12 :10 o'clook Sunday after suffer
ing with paralysis for several years.
Ur. Bailey nearly all his Ufa had
been conneoted with railroad and tele
phone business, and he was known and
respected throughout a very wide ter
ritory in the state.
He was born at Paradise, Montour
county, August 22, 1842,0n the origin
al Paradise farm. His mother was
Christiana Montgomery before her
marriage and his fattier John Bailey.
Robert M. Bailey married Elizabeth
Dougal, a daughter of Dr. Dougal, of
Milton, who survives him. They have
no children.
When a young man the snbjeot of
this sketch was for years connected
with the Northern Central Railway,
and then [mm 1874 to 1880 lie was with
the Pennsylvania Railroad, and locat
ed at Tyrone. He went to Williams
port in 1880, and Bhortly thereafter
went into the telephone business,
which was then in Its infancy. He
was oonneoted with the telephone
busiuess, in faot, from its earliest his
tory, and he and the late Hiram R.
Rhoads were instrumental in establish
ing tlio Oentrai Pennsylvania Tele
phone and Supply company, with
oHices in Williamsport. Mr. Bailey
was for years the general manager of
the oompany,until Mr. Rhoads' doath,
when he suooeeded tiie latter as presi
dent, and held that position until the
consolidation of the Central Pennsyl
vania company with the present Penn
sylvania Telephone oompany.
It was about thia time,in June,l9ol,
that Mr. Bailey was first stricken with
paralysis, and waß compelled by his
illness to cease taking any aotive part
in the affairs of the buainess.although
he remained with the oompany. Sinoe
then he had been gradually bnt slow
ly failing, having had several later
strokes. He had been confined to the
house all last winter and this spring
and summer, but only to his bed for a
few days.
Mr. Bailey was for some years a
consistent member of the First Pres
byterian ohurch, of Williamsport. He
was a man who had a boat of friends,
not only in Wililamspc~',bnt through
out this section of the state,and many
will mourn his loss.
The Reading's New York Service.
The old saying that "Truth is strang
er than Kiotion" is well exemplified
in the notable improvements made
lately by the Reading System in Its
service betweon Philadelphia and Now
York.
Tlio service between the two cities a
few years ago was reasonably good,
but not of that "Up to date" charact
er that the management desired, and
improvements have followed one an
other closely until today the servloe is
suprob, and other roads are not only
patterning after it but watoliing for
any innovation the Reading will make
to further the comfort of its patrons.
The first great innovation was in
May, lDo2,wheo the "Every hour— on
the hour,system was inaugurated,
fast, well equipped train, with Pull
man Parlor Oars attached, lenving-
Reading Terminal, Philadelphia, and
Liberty Stroet. New York, "Every
Time the Olock Strikes," every week
day.
These Trains had Oafe or Broiler
Oars at appropriate hours,but this lias
been improved by the substitution of
Regular Dining Oars on two traius
each way, Morning, Noon and Night.
The evening cars sorve a japltal
Table d'Hote Dinner at rate of SI.OO.
Breakfast and Lunch Is A La Oarte on
the appropriate trains.
It seemed is if soarcoly any thing
elite oould be done to add to the com
fort aud oonvenienoe of the Reading's
patrous when anotlior great change
was made June 25th of this year, tlio
old South Kerry or Whitehall Termin
al, New York, was abandoned, aud a
fine new Kerry House opened to pub
lic servloe at the foot of West 28rd
St., North River, in the heart of the
Hotel and Theatre Seotion and a great
shopping oenter. Under the roof of
Kerry passengers can take the Metro
politan Street Railway intersecting
with Elevated, Subway and Surfaoe
lines to >ll parts of New York. An
Eleotrio Oab Servloe at low rates is
also provided with starter's offloe in
Kerry Honse.

A Nice Display.
People who love nice tilings cau
now feast their ayes, or oven thoir
stomachs, with the beaatifal display
these days in front of the dlfforent
grooery stores in the city. It is the
height of the season for all good
things,the harvest yielding in plenty,
fruits, vegetables and berries of all
kinds. As they are displayed 011 the
sidowalks now it is a beautiful and
tempting sight.

VALUABLE HORSE'S
TERRIBLE INJORI
Isaiah Blue,a Frosty Valley farmer,
Tuesday came very near losing one of
lilb most valuable horseß as the result
of a very odd accident. The horse
would havo brought two hundred dol
lars at any day, but he had au especi
al value on the farm.boing Mrs. Blue's
driving horse and an animal with so
many good qualities that Biinply "no
money would have bought him".
The horse yesterday morning was
used in the plow. In turning around
he struck i> scythe which waß hanging
on a tree, knocking it down. As it
struok the ground it became eutaugled
in the hrose's legs and before it oould
be removod had cut the animal very
badly, intlioting among other injories
a Hhooking gash oil the right fore leg
between the knee and fetlock, from
whioh the blood poured in a steady
stroam.
One of the farm hauda was despatch
ed in post hasto for Veterinarian J. J.
Kline of this oity. Pending the vet
erinarian's arrival the horse's leg was
tightly baudaged ami the shooking flow
of blood was iu some measure cheoked.
The gash inflicted by the sharp
scythe extended into tlie bone and
readied fully half way round the leg.
The tendon of the leg along with tlio
veins was severed and the injury could
hardly have been much worse. By the
time of Dr. Kline's arrival the animal
had lost at least two gallons of blood
aud was weak and docile enough to
submit to any kind of treatment.
There was only one chanoe to save
the horse BO that he might be of any
servioe in the future aud that was by
a most difficult surgical operation,
which the Veterinarian without any
loss of time prooeeded to perform.
Eight stitohes were inserted iu the
leg. In order to enable the animal to
bear the pain incidental to stitching
cocaine was iujeoted into his leg.
Dr. Kline last evening stated that
the outcome at the present stape is
some what uncertain,bnt he has hopes
that with proper care the animal will
como around all right.

BREAKER DESTROY
ED BY FIRE
SHAMOKIN, Aug. 23.—Fire com
pletely dostroyod the big broaker of
the Ureenongh Red Ash Ooal 00.. at
Marion Heights near hero early this
morning.
One hour after the flames were dis
covered by a tiromau tlio structure was
a mass of ruins. The breaker was built
five years ago at a cost of (87,000 and
was insured for |12,000. It is owned
by Pittston and Shamokin capitalists
anil was one of the largest individual
operations in the Shamokin region.
Former Mine Inspector Edward Breu
nau is superintendent aud part owner
of the operation.
Tlie blazo was lirst iliHOOvered at
half-past twelve o'clock, and is nap
posed to have been of incendiary
origin. So quickly did the flames cou
tiuae to spread that the men,owing to
a scarcity of fire-fighting apparatus,
wore unable to inako much of a light
to save the strnotore.
Not more than two weeks ago, Im
provements amounting to a cash out
lay of ten thoaeaud dollars wore com
pleted and these were all destroyed.
There being no fire in the part of
the structure where the Dames were
first discovered, the promoters believe
that it was set on lire, bat no clues
have been secured.
The plaut will likely he rebuilt.
Big Buck Elks Sheds Antlers.
The two big book elks at Hon. Alex
ander Billuieyer's game preserve near
Washingtonvillo shod their antlers on
Sunday. The interesting sight was
witnessed by hundreds of Interested
spectators.
The buok elk sheds his antlers about
every thirteen months. He accom
plishes the feat by rubbing against the
trees and stumps until the antlers be
come loose and finally are altogether
severed from his head, all the while
acting in a ferocious manner and shed
ding great qnantites of blood.
Ur. Billmeyer has the antlers which
are beantifnl specimens, and are valu
ed at nearly (100 a set.
Getting There.
A man with a good thing to sell is
like a man with a good thought in his
head. The idea will profit nothing
onless it be put before the world in
some rational and effective way. So,
too, must the world know about a
commodity beforo it will buy. A man
with a fine light may hide It under a
bushel; a man with an AI idea may
secrete it under his hat, and a man
with the raw material of a fortune at
his disposal may flock by hiuiself so
long as finally to die poor.

(Now York Tribune, August 18, 1906.)
During the month of July the Penn
sylvania Special arrived in Oliloago
exaotly on the minute of its sohedule
every day. The eastbound Pennsyl
vania Speoial arrived in New York on
sohedule time twenty-three days. The
average detention on seven days was
less than ten minutes, due eutirely to
conditions for whioh the train crew
could not be held responsible. The
greatest breach in the Bohednle was on
July 14, when tho Special was held np
behind a freight wreck, which block
ed all fonr tiaoks on the Middle Div
ision, entailing a loss of two hours
and twenty-two minutes in the reg
t lar arriving time at New York.
It Is difficult to find a matoh for this
reoord. It demonstrates that the
schndule has sufficient elasticity to
take up any ordinary[detentious whioh
may ooour between termini, aud that
even faster regular schedule may be
made should it be deemed wise. The
fine oondition of the roadbed, the effici
ent motive po'wer, and skillful opera
tion all oontnbute to the ease with
whioh the Speoial accomplishes its
work.

i WEEK AT
JIcKEESPOET
George W. Miles and John O. Waite,
Saturday returned from MoKeespoir,
whom during last week they attended
the Grand Lodge of the Knights of
Pythias of Pennsylvania. Mr. Mile* is
very prominent in the order, having
entered upon Ins seoond five-year term
as member of the Grand Tribunal of
the order. Mr. Waite was the repre
sentative of Heaver Lodge, No. 132,
K.|of P., of tills oity.
The gontlemen aie very muoli pleas
ed with their trip. The people of Me-
Keesport proved to the visitors that
they wero by no moans deficient in
hospitality and planned various means
of ontertainment, not the lest enjoy
able of whioh was a moonlight excur
sion to Pittsburg. They state that it
requires a visit of that sort to reveal
to au Eastern man the enormous re
sources, the extensive operations, the
wealth and industry of that part of the
State. McKoosport is on the Monon
gaiiela river, fifteen miles from Pitts
burg. Iu the intervening distance are
the towns of East Liberty, Homestead,
Braddook, and Do Quesne, so that
from Pittsburg to MoKeesport the
shoro of the Monongahela is almost
continuously built up, the entire
locality forming witii Pittsburg a big
center of population.
All of these towus are famous as
manufacturing centers and are very
prosperous. MoKeesport, especially,
is a great wealth produoer. Here are
located tho National Tube Works, the
groatest iu the world, employing 18,-
000 men. The population of the town
is 40,000. The town nestless among
the mountains, but is not especially
attractive.
At Homestead aio the great Carnegie
Works. At Braddook the Edgar Thomp
son Steel Workn are looated. At Da
Qaeane aro eleven great blast furnacea
the average product of each being over
400 tons per pay. Before these mon
sters, Ur. Miles says, the blast far
naoes, which made Danville famous
in its day, are dwarfed into insignifi
cance. The boat onr faruaoos eonld do
was to prodace Hi to 20 tons per day
aud the prodnot of any one of the Da
Qnesne fnrimooß.it is estimated,would
exceed the combined prodaotof all the
farnaoes operated in Danville, Ohu
lusky and Bloouisburg in the days
when pig iron was manufactured in
this aeotion. Lake Superior ore is us
ed at Da Quesne.

AGAINST LAW
TO DESERT TEAM
NORRISTOWN, Pa., Aug. 38.-To
tost tlio liability of a horse-owner re
maining away from an untied team,
Jolin W. Potts, a Lower Ueriou oon
traotor, yesterday entered suit claim
ing |3500 damages against William N.
White, of that township.
Potts alleges that while riding on a
hiaycle op the Lancaster pike on Jone
28 the runaway team of Whito dashed
into him, breaking his right arm in
two plaoes aud inflicting other in
juries.
Z The plaintiff oontgnds that the team
was left unhitched along the roadside,
while its caretaker, Thomas White,sou
of the ownir, remained away, an act
of negligence cansing the runaway.
Dollars and War.
Tlio fiightfal waste of war is strik
ingly portrayed in a newly-oompilad
estimate of the outlay required to keep
the contending Japanese and Russian
fighting foroes in the flelit.
It is just 551 days nines the conflict
bon»n with the Japauexe naval attack
at Port Arthur. The direct coat to
eaoli nation, according to oflioiat esti
mates, han been ahont (1,000,000 a day.
That would make the whole cost of
the war op to date—ssl days—some
thing like $1,102,000,000.
The anunal interest on this vast sum
at S per oeut. is $55,100,000.
According to the most reliable ligares
obtainable Russia has now ('>21,000
soldiers in the Far East,while Japan's
forces in the Held aggregate (>OO,OOO
men.
The two contending armies,number
ing 1,221,000 men, are eating up
money at an average rate of (2,000,000
a day, JtiO.OOJ.OOO a month, or $71)0,
000,000 a year.
Aside from enlightened humanitarian
considerations, the "business sense"
of the world will soon make war an
impossibility.
