GRAND JURY IS DISCHARGED The Grand Jurors wound up their bus iness Tuesday. By noon they had'pasa ed on all the bills. During the after noon all ttiat remained for them was to examine the public buildings aud present their report. The following accounts were con firmed nisi by the Court: First and final account of Charles F. Derr administrator of Benjamin Frv. late of Cooper township. First and final account of Mary A. Hofer, administratrix of the estate of Edward Hofer. First and final account of Jane H. Beehtel,executrix of the estate of .Tauo Moser. First and final account of S. Y.

The report of viewers for bridge over Beaver Run was confirmed nisi . In re petition for sale of real estato in the estate of John McWilliams, late of Liberty township, deceased, a sale was ordered as prayed for. The case of Commonwealth vs. Francis Woll, receiving stolen goods, was coutinued. A true bill was found in the case of Commonwealth vs. David Magill. The charge against Magill is felonious as sault and battery. The defendant has been a fugitive from justice since last winter when he figured in au affray, in which William Lake was stabbed, the latter bandy oscapiug with his life. Although there are no immediate prospects of apprehending Magill, the District Attorney deemed it advisable to secure an indictment. In the case of Commonwealth vs. Thomas Sheppard, the Grand Jury al so returned a true bill. At 3:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon the Grand Jurors were discharged. W. R. miler General Hanager. At a meeting of the Directors of the Danvillo aud Bloomsburg Street Rail way Company held in this city Mon day, William R. Millor was elected general mauager. Mr. Miller as Suiierinteudent took charge of the Danville ami Bloomsburg line early in July last. As Superin tendent his services were most effici ent. The cars have been running like olock-work, there lias been no friction of any sort in the management and the road has yielded a good profit. That such a showing is most gratify ing to the stock holders and board of directors goes without saying and Mr. Miller's reward came in the form of a substantial promotion, which elevated him from Sujierinteudeut to General Mauager. Mr. Miller is a gentleman of flue so cial qualities, aud by his natural courtesy aud generous traits of char acter has endeared himself to our citi zens who will unite with the News in congratulating him on his advance ment. Scranton Loses Shops. SCRANTON, Pa., Jau. 10.—The Lackawanna passenger repair shops,<>u South Washington avenue, will bo movod in a few weeks to Kingsland, N. J. ,whoro the mammoth shops of the road for building nnd repairing pass enger coaches are now rapidly Hear ing completion. If the Sullivan county authorities would employ a detective instead of offering a comparatively small reward there might be some chance of the Whitmire murder mystery being solv ed. LAWFUL TO FISH THROUGH ICE Now that the streams in this section are being frozen up, the question of fishing through the ice is once more attracting attention. This is a matter that a great many do not rightly un derstand. Suckors and mullets are quite plentiful in the Fishing creek and many peoplo up that valley have been wondering the last few day if it would be lawful to catch those fish through tho ice with a hook anil line. H. G. Ksholmau, the fish and game warden for this section, stated yestor day that suckers and mullets are not embraced by the game laws, and that it is perfectly lawful to catch them through the ice. While fishing for these, however, should a game fish be taken on the line, it must be returned at once, or tho fisherman is liable to a fine. Last winter a case was tried in which prosecution was attempted for taking suckers or mullets from the water witli a hook, but the man WHS immediately discharged and the matter dropped, as there was no law against such a mode of capturing these fish. The fact that there is ice on the water in no way changes the law re lating to the capture of fish. Installation ol Officers. The installation of officers took place last night at Montour Castlo, No. 186, Knights of the Oolden Eagle. The installing officer was F. M. Herring ton, District Grand Chief, assisted by Representative William Houser. The officers were installed as fol lows: Past Chief, Seth Lormer ; Noble Chief, A. F.

H., yesterday paid in full the claim of |IOOO held by the late Charles Snyder |> that ordar. i SCHOOL DIRECTORS' County Superintendent C. W. Den was in Danville yesterday. He littd a conference with Borough Superintend ent U. L. Gordy and the date of Jan uary 80th was decided upon as the time for the annual meeting of the School Directors' Association of Mon tour county. The session will be held in Danville, although the two Super intendents yesterday were unable to state in what building the directors will meet. At present Messrs. Derr and Gordy have their eye on the Court House and the matter will be laid be fore the County Commissioners at the earliest opportunity. The School Directors' Association takes in all the directors of the couu ty, who under the present law will re ' celve two dollars for their attendance ' at the meeting and mileage at the rate ' of S cents per milo. I The attendance will no doubt be all that could be desired aud nothing will ibe left undone by the two Superin tendents that would contribute to the success aud importance of the meeting. They are trying very hard to secure the attendance of State Superintendent of Publio Instruction N. C. Sohaeffer. The program for the meeting will not be announced until the State Superin tendent is heard from finally as to whether, lie oau be prosont or not. All the details relative to the meet ing will probably bo arranged yet dur ing the present woek and the program will be announced. R. P. D. Suggestions. The carrier on one of the Danville Rural Free Delivery routes has com piled the following set of suggestions to the patrons of the delivery, an ob servance of which will not only make the carriers' work easier, but will also greatly improve the service. You will do the carrier a great favor if you stamp your letters before putting same in box or better yet by usiug government stamped envelopes with your namo written upon upper loft hand corner this will guarantee delivery or return of the letter. In case you shonld not happen to have either stamps or stamped en velopes wrap the necessary amount up in paper and fasten to letter in some good manner remembering that in cold weather if money is putin loose the carrier lias to take off his gloves to pick up the loose penuies. 11l addressing your letters do not write above the middle of the envelope because the letter has to be plainly postmarked aud the address may be partly blurred by beiug struck with the pftst marking stamp. You will also help the handling of the mail by always putting the stamp upon the upper right hand cor ner. In your addrossiug a letter to a visitor or some ouo wlio is not a patron of a rural route or Postoffice you will IK) helping the service by marking on the envelope in whose care the letter or package should go. If you have visitors who are expect ing mail kindly give the carrier their names by putting slip in box notifying him of same. In regards to boxes help your carrier hy having a good one and in a good easy place to drive up to and oil the hinges and lock occasionally,also have small hole in bottom to drain out water. Anything deposited in boxes is count ed mail matter anil is subject to ordi nary postage rates. All packages should be well wrapped and securely tied and valuable letters and packages should be registered. Patrons should not ask carrier to wait while they write or finish a let ter or postal. Have your mail deposit ed in box when he reaches your box and save delay. Patrons should keep the roads open in winter and snow shoveled away from boxes. Mail carriors aro not re quired to break roads. Carriers wish to extend thanks to patrons of routes for the kindness ex tended to them during the holidays. RURAL CARRIER. Destructive Fire at Elysburg. A part of the village of Elysburg was threatened with destruction by fire Monday morning. The quick and offective work of a force of men who formed themsolves into a bucket bri gade saved many houses from being destroyed. Smoke was seen coming from the second story of A. J. Persing's wheel wright shop at 10:15. An alarm of fire was quickly sounded and almost the entire population of the village re sponded. An investigation showed the flames to be burning fiercely. It was evident that the building could not be saved. Every effort was then directed to wards preventing the flamos from spreading. At first the tiro fighters were hampered by having the only fire wagon in the village break down when thoy attempted to draw it to the lire. A bucket brigade was formed and valuable assistance rendered in this tnauncr. The post office building which adjoined the wheelwright shop caught fire but the brave volunteer fire fight ers succeeded in saving all the govern ment mail as well as the large stock of stationery which was handled in connection with the post office. The flamos threatened to spread to Edward Cook's butcher shop and D. H. DeShay's implement store and foundry and were only prevented from doing so by determined work on tho part of the villagers. The buildings containing the smithy and post office were completely de stroyed with a loss of about SBOO, be ing partly covered with $250 insurance. Succumbed to Diphtheria. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Hancock have been called upon to mourn the death of tneir five-year-old daughter, Flor ence, who succumbed to an attack of diphtheria. The child was taken ill on New Y.ear's Day and notwithstand ing the best of oare and medical at tmdance grew steadily worse,dying at 11 o'olook on Friday night. Burial took place Saturday after noon. Interment in Odd Fellows' oemetery.

STATE WINS WAT ER GAP SUIT STROUDSBURG, Jan. 9.—The mountain scenery is not to be further destroyed at the Delaware Water Oap, and the hotel mou at the resort are liappy and jubilent over the victory. Judge Staples handed down his op inion in the aotion brought by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania ag ainst the D. L. & W. Railroad Com pany to cause the latter to remove the stone crusher at the Gap. The court orders a continuance of the injunction. This means that the crusher must go, but the case will be appealed.

SUPPLEMENTAL PROCLAMATION Governor Pennypacker yesterday af ternoon, issued a supplementary proc lamation suggesting more legislation for the coming session, to be embodied in four bills. These will cover civil service reform in State offices; a uni form primary election measure ; a bill relating to the expenditure of moneys by candidates for nomination and elec tion to office, and a bill relating to the consolidation of contiguous cities, this latter having already been cover ed in the Governor's first proclama tion, but again inserted to cover any defect that may exist in the original suggestion, new laws being passed un der both suggestions for the consolida tion of Pittsburg and Allegheny. The proclamation is as follows-: "Whereas, an extraordinary session of the general assembly of the com monwealth of Pennsylvania has been called under authority of article 4, sec tion 13, of the constitution, to meet in the capitol at Harrißburg on Monday, January 15,1906, at 2 o'clock p. m., of that day. "Now, therefore, I, Samuel W. Pennypacker, governor of the com monwealth of Pennsylvania,do hereby designate the following additional sub jects for the consideration of the gen eral assembly, with a view to legisla tion at the said session with respect to them. "First: To revise the laws in rela tion to primary elections in such a way to provide for the holding of the pri mary elections of all political parties within the commonwealth on the same day, at the same time, under the sup ervision of properly constituted offic ers, and to make such changes in or in addition to these laws as may seem advisable. "Second: To establish a civil ser vice system, by means of which the routine offices and employments of the commonwealth may be filled by ap pointments made after the ascertain ment of qualifications and fitness, and the incumbents of such offloe may re tain them during good behavior. "Third: To designate the uses to which money may bo applied by can didates, political managers and com mittees in political campaigns or for nominations and elections, to require the managing committees and man agers of all political parties to file witli Bome designated official at the close of each campaign a detailed state ment in writing, accompauied by affi davit, of the amounts collected and the purposes for which they wore ex pended. 'Fourth: To eualilo cities which are now or may hereafter be contigu ous or in close proximity, including any intervening land, to he united in one municipality, in order that the people may avoid the unnecessary burdens of maintaining separate muni cipal governments.'' This fourth subject is a modification of the first subject in the original call and is added in order that legislation may be enacted under either of them as may lie deemed wise. JANUARY COURT. (Continued from page 1) William Keefer was the first witness for the defense ; lie was followed by Mrs. Keefer, Nelson Houseknecht, Phoebe Moser and some others, whoso testimony sustained the allegations of the defense. The jury retired about 4 o'olock, re turning at 5 o'clock with a verdict of "not guilty." Thomas Sheppard pleaded guilty to the charge of assault and battery, his wife being the complainant. The Court decided to suspend sentence,but made an Order requiring Sheppard to pay five dollars per week to his wife ; it was also ordered that if he practices any abuse or cruelty toward his wife lie be at once taken into custody again. Saloon and hotel keopers were forbid den to sell Sheppard any drink under penalty of losing their license. Shep pard was ordered to report at Court at the next term. Court adjourned to meet Saturday morning. The Grand Jury Tuesday afternoon presented its report, which reads as follows: To the Honorable Judges of tin Court of Quarter Sessions of Montour County. The Grand Jury having performed its|duty makes the following report: We have examined the public build ings and find them generally in good condition with the exception of the Courthouse roof, a leak being appar ent in the ceiling, which unless re paired soon will prove injurious to the plastering and mar the appearance of the room. We recommend that the leak be repaired. The jail and all the appurtenances thereof seem to be in excellent con dition. We recommend as lias been dono by previous Grand Juries that the indices in the Register and Recorder's office be replaced by new ones, as those now in use have been there for many years and are in a very dilapidated condi tion and for the better protection of the public interest should be replaced by a more modern and improved kind. All of which is respectfully submit ted J. C. MILLER, Foreman. January 9th, 1006. List of Applications for License In Montour County at January Session, 190»>.

TWO HUNDRED WILL LOSE THEIR LICENSE POTTSVILLE, Jau. 10.—It is al ready certain that the Law and Order Society will succeed in cutting off nearly 200 saloons from the list in Schuylkill County this yoar. Today, after hearing the evidence of detec tives employed by the society nearly 30 applicants withdrew and their li censes will be revoked. Anw ng the revelations of the day was one that there are many donble applications for saloon license, where the proprietors have been convicted of selling on Sunday. In this way it is hojied to prevent the court's revoking the license. It was also shown that some saloonkeepers make it a business to get licenses for a new stand and then aall oat. HOW HIS FEET BECAME FROZJ Herman Prentiss, accompanied by his brother Ambrose aud sister, Mrs. Hirsh, of Wilkes-Barre, Friday uiglit arrived at this city from Greeusbnrg in the western part of the State where lie was confined at the Hospital with both feet frozen. He is now receiving medical care at the home of his father, N. 0. Pren tiss, Railroad street. His feet aro still in a very bail condition, although it does not seem likely that amputation will have to be resorted to unless it l>e to remove a portion of the toes. At the Westmoreland Hospital where Her man was confined it was thought that several of the toes would have to be amputated. However.it is by no means improbable that duo to skillful treat ment his toes may be saved. The story that Herman tells is as follows: Misunderstanding the con ductor ho left the train at a wrong station aud started to walk to the next station. It was ou Sunday and he en countered rain aud snow. There wore no houses aud ho walked many miles hoping to find shelter. Wheti night overtook him he was drenched through and through. Discerning a straw stack in the darkness lie made his way to ward it, crawled under the straw and sought Bhelter for the night. Ho had no doubt but that a farm house was near but it was lato aud he heard dogs barking ominously, so that he decided to entrust himself to the hospitality of the straw stack. The weather had changed, however, and it became very cold. His feet were wet aud he re moved his shoes, but lie was uuable to keep his feet warm aud during the night they were frozen. The whole affair was purely accid ental, as Herman was well supplied with money. But for the misunder standing which led him out in the storm he would have been able to pur chase safe and comfortable lodging. Calender Show Case. The First National Bank, Saturday, installed a very interesting feature, which will no doubt be much appre ciated by the public. It is a calendar Bliow case and a Rempo self-winding clock combined, and is installed outside tlic bank build ing. The show case, which is illumi nated by fourteen electric lights, is about seven feet high by three wide and in an upright position is fastened against the exterior wall between the bank door and the cornor of the build ing. j Hero iii letters large enough to be read across the street will bo exposed the name of the month, day and date along with other information. Over all is the clock the face of which is some twelve inches in diameter, an opal glass dial, semi-transparent, so that by the aid of the electric light bulbs behind it the time will always be discernible, night or day. The show case was installed by the Diamond Glass Company, of Cleve land. The clock feature is an idea of the bankers and was specially devised and installed by Cleaver Wagner, of the Clock Works.
