A FIFTY MINUTE
SCHEDULE
Beginning with November Ist or as
HOOD after as possible the Danville aud
Bloomsburg Eleotiic Railway will en
ter upon a fifty minute sohedule in
■tead of the forty iniuute schedule, on
whioh the oars have beeo running no
til the present time. The gohednle in
the form of a folder convenient for
distribution, is in proness of priuting
aud will soon be ready for ase
As implied by the schedule a car
will leave Danville aud Bloomsburg
every fifty minutes duriue the day.
The sohedule also shows the exact
time at whioh the oar on each trip is
due to arrive at the intermediate sta
tions as the Cemetery, Paulas' Turn
Out, Yorks', Qrovania, Diemer's,
Mensch's Turn Out aud Pishing Greek
Bridge.
The forty minute sohedule makes
the time of arriving aud departure of
the oars very easy to remenjber, but
the period of forty miuutes after a
year's experience is found impractic
able under all but the most extreme
oiroumstanoes Between the Cemetery
and Mill street the amount of traflio
and consequently the number of Btops
required is wholly an unknown quant
ity and is just as likely as not to de
lay the oars so that they come in late.
The result is that the forty minute
schedule stands for very little indeed
and persons arriving at the stopping
plaoes, even when late,are at a loss to
know whether the car has jast passed
or is merely delayed aud thus are iu
daoed to risk a greit loss of time to
say nothing of the discomfort or an
noyance of waiting, which is nearly
always a factor.
The additional ten minutes, allow
ing for the maximum of stops will
make it easy for the curs to reach eao h
stopping place on the minute aud the
management will see to it that the
oats do not arrive at nor leave either
Danville or Bloomsburg until the ex
aet time set forth ou the printed sched
ule, which will bo distributed among
the publio who patronize the line. It
Wjll thus be seen that the public will
be put to no inconveuienoe whatever,
but will be wholly the gaiuers by the
change.
The Dauvitle and Bloomsburg Com
pany has now removed its summer cars
for the season and is usiug the closed
oars, whioii are heated during morn
ing aud evening.

Bateman-Bergstresser.
Miss Elizabeth E , daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. 8. E. Berg.tresser, and Wil
liam O. Bateman were married at 4:86
o'olook this morning in the Bergstres
■er residenoe on North Oak street. The
oeremouy was performed by the Rev.
Herbert Ure.
The marriage is a complete surprise
to all. Although it was known that
the young people were engaged,no one
had beeu advised of the approaching
nuptials, and the only witnesses were
the Berg9tresser family.
The bride is one of Mount Carmel's
fairest and most accomplished young
women. Mr. Bateman is inside fore
man at the Centralia colliery and has
a promising fatore. All unite in ex
tending congratulations. The oouple
left on the 6:21 Readiug train for a

UNION THANKS
GIVING SERVICE
The Union Thanksgiving service
will be held in Grove Presbyterian
ohnroh this year. The Thanksgiving
sermon will be delivered by the Rev.
J. E Hutchison pastor of the Mah
oning Presbyterian Ohnroh. The ar
rangement of the full program for the
service was left in the hands of Rev.
Dr. McOormack and members of the
Grove Presbyteiian ohnroh.
The above was decided upou at a
session of the Ministerial Association
of Danville whioh was held yesterday
morning expressly for the purpose.
The session was attended by nearly all
the pastors of town aud the action
was unanimous.
The Thanksgiving offering according
to custom will be turned over to the
Woman's Benevolent Association of
this oity, whioh will retain it until
the annual meeting in January when
it will be applied to some objoot that
needs it the most.
The Thanksgiving offering last year
was rather an insignificaut sum and
an effort this year will be made to do
oonsiderahly better. The Woman's
Benevolent Association is a band labor
ing for a noble objeot. During the
long winters it relieves muoli aotual
Buffering. It is a fact, however, that
its activities are much restricted for
the want of funds. The Thauksgiving
offering is one of the principal sources
of help that the Association has to
look to and when that falls short the
deficiency is felt very much indeed.
There was A good deal of enthusiasm
shown at the ministerial meeting yes
terday and if the Union Thanksgiving
ia not a success along all lines it will
not be beoause the pastors are not be
stirring themselves.
Preachihg at Seventy-eight.
Kev. Dr. M. L. Shindel, pastor of
Pine Street Lutheran church,this city,
yesterday in a quiet manner observed
his seventy-eighth birthday.
Dr. Shindel enjoys the distinction
of being one of the oldest clergymen
in active service in this section of the
State. His prolonged career in the
pulpit is doe to his bodily and intel
lectual vigor, which lie retains to a
surprising degree. He occupies the
palpit and discharges his clerical
doties with zeal and fidelity, losing
less time through indisposition than
many a younger man. Along with an
upright figure, good eyesight, good
hearing aud memory he retains a
warm heart and sonny disposition. His
hand shake is as vigorous and warm
as ever and now as he approaches the
eightieth milestone of life's journey
he is still the sympathetic open-heart
ed. even jolly friend, aud his com*
panionship is as highly prized by the
young as by the old. All in all Dr.
Shindel would be a splendid model for
those to fashion after who would wish
to "grow old gracefully."
Rev. Dr. Shiudel came to Danville
over thirty years ago. During the long
period intervening he has been pastor
of Pine Street Lutheran ohurch. He
is one of the ablest preachers of this
seotion.
Rode Free on Chicago Flyer.
Joe May, of West Fairview, some
time ago amused the newspaper read
ers of North Auieriua by drifting into
the dining room of the Waldorf-As
toria, eating an expensive dinuer and
winding the tiling up by ordering a
four dollar cigar before he was kicked
out, but May has a rival in Harry
Jeffries, a New York hobo, who Mon
day evening at 7:05 o'clock boarded
the Pennsylvania special at Harris
burg and rode to Altoona, where he
was arrested.
Jeffries was not seen getting on the
eighteen hour flyer between New York
and Chicago at Harrisburg, aud his
presence on the traiu was not noted
until the conductor of the train went
through to take a record of the pass
engers. Then he noticed the hobo
sitting leisurely upon oue of the nlush

"Tiokets please," from the con
ductor did not feaze tli6 fiee rider, who
knew that the train would uot bo
stopped until it got to Altoona.
"Cau't accommodate you,'' said
Jeffries as he leaned back in his seat
preparatory to dozing the balance of
the ride.
The conductor shoved him through
the train aud stored him iu the com
bination baggage oar in charge of a
brakeman until the train arrived at
Altoona and then he was turned over
to one of the railroad police. m

HARTFORD, Conn..Oct. 25.—When

agency, left here for Pittsburg last
evening,they said they intended to get
a warrant for the arrest of Mrs. Oun
liffe, wife of Edward O. Uunlitfe, the
Pittsburg express robber who is at the
home of tier father in Ea*t Hartford.
One of the detectives said last night
that he believed Mrs. Cunliffe knew
where the missing SIO,OOO was that
was taken from the express company.
He expresed the opinion that the mon
ey was brought from Pittsburg by
Mrs. Ouuliife on the persons of her
children. He said Mrs. Ounliffe had
made conflicting statements to them.
both Mr. Boardman,her father, and
Mrs. Ouuliife deny that they know
anything about the missiug money and
they both declare that they are perse

Northumberland Courthouse.
Plans lor the enlargement and re
modeling of the Northumberland Ooun
ty Court House are being quietly for
mulated by the County offiotals.
The structure as it is at present is
far too small for the transaction of the
county's legal bosiuess. Iu court room
number two especially is more room
needed. During every term of crim
inal court the room is packed, inter
fering greatly with the trial of cases.
All of the offices on the first floor aie
also too stuify aud badly appointed fo
the proper carrying on of the busi
ness.
Besides the great ueed of rcom the
roof and other parts of the building
are in bad shape, needing rnoch re
pairing. While this is being done it
is the iutention to enlarge the struct
ure.
No definite plans for the work have
yet been adopted but a committee con
sisting of President Judge Savidge,
Associate Judge Auten, Hon. W. H.
M. Oram, of Shamokin, and other
prominent aftorneys and officials of
the couuty has been selected to make
investigations along this line. The
Lycoming county courthouse at Will
iamsport, which is a structure much
the same as the Northumberland coun
ty courthouse, was recently greatly
improved by the erection of an L shape
addition iu the rear. The committee
in the near future will visit Williams
port and view the work there with a
view of doing tht same at Sunbuiy.
There being plenty of ground space
in the rear of the Northumberland
county tribunal au addition could be
easily built aud this would afford the
enlargement of the second trial room
and dowu stair offices.

ICE HODSu AND
STABLEJOIBINED
Pursuant to action of Council at its
last meeting Secretary Patton has
granted a permit to the D. L. & W.
Railroad Company to coustinct the
switch into the building on D. L. &
W. avenue formerly the Salvation
Army barrack.
The prime mover iu proouring the
switch is oar townsman A. L. Dei
camp, who has an option on the old
barraok and who desires to remodel it
iuto a building for storing ioe and a
stable oombined. Mr. Delcamp, who
handles Pocono ioe, receives it by the
car load and is obliged to sell it di
rectly from the attended
with a good deal of inoonvenience.
With a switoh running into the bar
rack Mr. Delcamp will be enabled to
store away a oar load of ice at a time
for use while the next car is on its
way. In this way he will always have
a small stook on hand and in case of a
short delay in transportation oaused
by wreok or the like he will not be
left without a supply of ice. Ooly one
half of the building will be used for
the purpose of storing ice ; the other
half will be converted inco a stable in
whioh the horses needed for the ioe
wagons will be kept.
The switoh for whioh the parmit has
been granted will brauoh oB from the

AETER THIRTY TEARS
OF SEPERATION
A romauce of married life would be
an appropriate title for the story of
of Mr. aud Mrs. Sauford
Pegg. tfie former a Bloomsburg eK
thirty years ago,and the latter a long*
time resident of that town, who were
reunited last week after a thirty years
separation, aud are now living togeth
er at 9crautou.
Thirty years ago Mr. Pegg, who was
well known in Blonmsburg and liked
by all suddenly deserted his wife,
seemingly without auy excuse what
ever. At that time he was employed
as gardener by the late David J. Wal
ler. Mis home life was ideal aud the
greatest surprise was felt at the time
by all who kuew him that he ha£ so
conducted himsolf tie weut to dcran
ton aud took up a position as coach
man where, it is said, he has siuce
been employed.
During all these years in which his
family have reached the years of ma
turity and his wife aud himself have
passed iuto the riper years of their
life, uothing was l-eard from him.
Duriug the summer, it is understood,
he returned to Bloomsbu/g for a brief
visit, coming as one from the dead. It
was only tin, older (feneration of town
who remembered him.
He returned to filoomsburg last
week again; visited his wife and the
two decided to live together as man
aud wife, Mr. Pegg returning to Scran
ton where he is employed and where
they will make their home from this
time. The years have dealt kindly
with both of them and it is possible
that the thread of their married life,
broken thirty years ago.will be united
tor many years to come.
IN RAINCOAT
• AND PAJAMAS
UTILE ROUK. Ark, Oct. 25.
President Koosuvelt made his first ap
pearance iu Arkansas at Carlisle, clad
mainly iu a raincoat. A large crowd
of people and a steady downpour of
rain greeted him. It was the first raiu
he had on his present trip
but it neither dampened the ardor of
the crowd at Carlisle, nor chilled his
owu spirits. He was dreeing when the
little towu was roached, aud at first
did not intend togo out ou the plat
form for there was no stop schedule
there. But the couutry folk for miles
around knew the train of the presi
dent would stop there for water aud
sent au urgent message to Secretary
Loeb, asking that they be given au
opportunity of hearing the exceutive.
In some unaccountable manner the
telegram did not reach the secretary
until atter the prfsideut had retired
for the night, after a hard night in
Alabama aud Mr. Loeb did not feel
justified iu waking him. As the train
stopped at Carlisle the crowd let loose
a chorus of cheers, a whistle suine
where iu the neighborhood set up au
awful screeching and the president
had no lingeiiug doubt that a large
portiou of his constituency was de
manding his presence. He sent for
Secretary Loeb and asked him the
name of the town and.the cause of the
unscheduled demonstration.
"Tiny are expactiug to see you, Mr.
President," repiled Mr. Loeb, then
explained the situatiou.
"But I'm not dressed. I'm not fit
to be seen. 1 can't appear in pajamas,"
exclaimed the president.
"Why not put ou a raiu coat?" ask
ed the secretary.
So th') president did aud made the
Carlisleites a little speech from the
platform of the Signet.
Just before the traiu left Birming
ham last night Secretary Loeb and a
local detective had an argument which
resulted in the sleuth's discomfiture.
The detective rushed up to the presi
dent's carriage in the gloom aud the
secretary warned him away.
"I'm a secret service man," cried
the stranger.
"I don't care who you are," replied
the secretary. "You must not get too
uear the president."
The man advanced in spite of warn
ing and received a staggering blow
from the secretary's fist. He made
kick at the secretary's
shius which struck nothing more solid
than the atmosphere, theu fell back
iuto the crowd uttering maledictions.
The president's train reached Fort
Root at 9 o'clock.
