OLD RESIDENTS PASS AWAY Michael Moug, an old aiul well know 11 citizen, passed away shortly after noon Sunday at the home of his son, John Moug, Upper Mulberry street. The deceased was seventy-nine years of age and death was due to the usual infirmities of advanced life. The deceased was a native of Ger many but came to Danville in 185*5 and since then has resided here and in Frosty valley. Ho was an old time miner and for many years worked in tlie ore mines for Waterman & Beaver and Grovo Brothers. He was a wid ower, his wife dying four years ago. In addition to John Moug,with whom the deceased resided, there survives another son, William Moug, now a soldier iu the Philippines, and four daughters,as follows : Kate (Mrs. John Kashuer); Lizzie (Mrs. John Evoritt); Martha (Mrs. William Richard) and Minnie (Mrs. William Barnhart). At about L the same time Sunday afternoon Mrs. Martha Shee, wife of John Shee, departed this life at the home of her sister, Mrs. Owen Ho ran, Chambers street. The deceased was fifty-eight years of age and was in poor health for several years. In addi tion to her husband and sister, Mrs. Horau, she is, survived by one brother, John Far re 11 of Shaiuokin. AN OLD PHOTOGRAPH. Au excellent photograph of the Rough aud Ready Iron Works, taken forty years ago may be seen at M. 11. Schram's store, Mill street. The photo graph—a large and neatly framed one of about 11x1(1 inches—is a treasured heirloom in ]K)ssessiou of T. J. Price. It is full of interest, as it presents a| picture never seen by the youngor gen eration, although it is one that will very easily be recalled by older peo ple. Iu the foreground is the D. L. & W. track on which is standing a train of old-fashioned coal cars. Along with the Rough ami Ready works in the picture are'the Grove furnaces,a very imposing group of buildings. The foundry and machine shop, later the property of Curry & Company, wore at that time a part of the Rough and Ready plant. The rolling mill propor was nothing to compare to the Structural Tubing works of the present day, while other buildings appear in the picturo that are not visible today. Tho entire as pect of tho spot is changed. The general excellence of tho photo graph,which has stood the test of time is convincing proof that photography, at least, as exemplified in large views, has made little or no progross in forty years. Underneath the photograph is print ed : "Rough aud Ready Iron Works. Hancock and Foley, manufacturers of railroad iron, rolls and rolling mill machinery,steam engines aud iron and brass castings." Returns to Old Home. The magnetic influence of tho en virons of tho homo at Snydertown has worked so strongly ou Thomas R. Jones, a successful Washington busi ness mau and banker, that he has re turned to the scenes of his childhood reclaimod the old homestead and wil, remodel it to spend tho remainder of his life iu retirement. He has given ordors to Architect W. U. Jury of Shamokin to preparo plans for placing the old structure in a mod ern condition and when [all improve ments are made it will bo oue of"the finest country homes in this vicinity. Mr. Jones £is a descendant of the Rockefeller family of Northumberland county aud he was born and raised at Snydertown. When quite a young man he left that place and roamed through the west. In recent years he has lived iu Washington, where by a series of good investments he has amassed a large fortune, and today ho is presi dent of ono of the largest banks in the capitol city. Last summer, while luakiug an ex tensive tour ho visited his old home for the first time in many years, and when standing under some of the old oaks, under which he played as a boy, his desire to return became so strong that he at once openod negotiations for the old homestead ami purchased it. The school house, whero ho attoud ed as a boy and later taught has boon moved ou the ground and will be used as a carriage shed. Mr. aud Mrs. Jones arrived at Sny dertown several days ago,having driv en from Washington. Wants to be Governor. Columbia couuty not only has a can didate for auditor general in William T. Creasy, named on several tickots, but in James D. Harris, of West Ber wick, a veteran and a working man, there blossoms forth as an Independ ent candidate for no less an office than governor of tho Commonwealth. Mr. Harris does not believe in doing any thing by halves. Ho has alroady been an independent candidate for congress and whilo tho number of votes that he pulled mado no appreciable inroads on tho other candidates yet ho comos back merrily into the fi^ht—this time higher aspiratious. Mr. Harris oil Wednesday gave evid ence of the earnestness of his Guber natorial aspirations by openiug an office on the third floor of the Dickson building, Berwick. The rooms ho will occupy, by a strange coiiicidouce, are those of tho William R. Hearst club. Ho will cause a large Amorican flag to be strung across tho streot at that poiut and from now on will boom his candidacy so that others may know that there is another candidate in tho field besides Stuart and Emery. Mr. Harris* platform is: "Tax re form, tho Roosevelt policy and tho strict onforconiout of tho constitu tion." Mr. Harris is emphatic in his declaration that ho will work in the iuterest of the peoplo and ho believes they will support him for governor. Sunbury Disbands Again. The Sunbury baso ball team has been disbanded again by Managers Stahl aiul Clement. This is tho second time this season that the Suubury team has been disbanded. Poor support result ing in no funds is given as the reason. TRI-CODNTY FARMERS' PICNIC The tri-couuty farmers' picnic will be held at DeWitt's park on Thursday, August 1(1. Pursuant to call a committee of the tri-couuty picnic associatiou held a meeting at the courthouse Saturday. Tho following officers weroelectod for the ensuing year: President, Goorge Loighow; secretary, B. L. Dichl; treasurer, Jacob Shultz. It was de cided to hold tho tri-couuty farmers' picnic at DeWitt's park on tho above named date. A commit-too on grounds and a committee ou speakers and music were appointed. Evory effort will bo made to bring out a largo at teudauce aud to make tho picnic a greater succoss than was over achiev ed iu the past. Able speakors and tho best of music will be secured. Tho outing will take the form of a baskot. picnic. There will bo dancing ami other forms of amusoniout. A base ball game under the auspices of tho committee will bo a feature of tho afternoon. The territory embracod by the tri couuty piouic comprises, bosidos Mon tour county, large portions of Colum bia and Northumberland counties. In fact there aro no well defiued limits established and a geuoral invitation to farmers aud their friends is oxtomlod by the committee. It is likoly that farmers will be present from every portiou of both Columbia and North umberland county besides Montour. Ail admission foo of five cents will be charged for every adult. A DEAL IN MONEY. The Butlor Times says the foreign ers in that county are in the habit of using all sorts of quoor reooptaolos for their savings. It tolls of one woman at Lyndora who discovered that the rats had badly mutilated mouoy to tho amount of $lO. The woman gathered u]) tho fragmeuts and took them to a merchant to whom she offered them for SB. He lookod thom ovor and ac cepted the offor. Prosontly the merch aut's partner came along and offered S2O for tho collection. It.was accept ed, whereupon the now owner wont to work sorting and pasting to such good effect that later on tho govorn mont sent him the full value of the bills. Wlieu the woman hoard tho story she brought suit to recover the money but the ovidenco showed that sho had been a willing sollor. In Role of Steeple Climber. D. C. Williams, tho woll-known slater, Monday .assumed tho role of steeple climber. He is making repairs on the tower of St. Hubert's Catholic church and in order to roach the bronze ball on tho spire it was nocossarv to perform a feat in climbing that was nothing short of thrilling. Rising above the fii it division of the steoplo in which the bell is fixed, is another and narrower soction, which iu turn is surmounted by tho spiro boar ing tho brouzo ball and tho gilded cross, tho whole being some eighty feet iu height. In making the ropairs no scaffolding was used, ladders solely beiug employed. To roach tho two first divisions of tho tower was a compara tively easy task, bur when it camo to makiug the repairs on tho spire and reaching tho big ball quite a different problem presented itself. It was this part of the work that Mr. Williams had in hand Monday. A loug ladder was dragged up the steeple and, made socuro at the base, was leaned agaiust tho spire, enabling the climber to roach every part of the latter along with the ball under neath the cross. A cool head, nerve and much exporiouce is required iu performing a job such as this is and while scaling the steoplo tho workman attracted much attention from the streot. Birthday Party. A number of the friends of George Swayzo wore entertained Monday oven ing at tho home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Swayzo, Front stroet, in honor of his oighth birthday. Those present wore : Ruth Laliue, Alice Chambers,Beatrico Pursol, Mar ion Pursol, Margaret Marshall, Mary Orndorf, Margaret Fields, Mao Fetter- j man, Lizzie Thomas, Helen Swayzo, | Mary Walker, Floronco Russell, Eva Ashton,Lillian Chambers, Isabel Boy er, Ida Cooke, of Sunbury; William Sainsbury, Harold Walker, Laßuo Thomas, Paul Walker, Ralph Mador, Robort Bird, Theodore Walker and Walter Potors. POSTAGE MUST BE AFFIXED. An order has been received at the local postoffice prohibiting r. 112. d, carriers from carrying as express mat ter for hire or as a favor any article or a package weighing four pounds or under, which is mailahlo, and carriers aro requested to inform their patrons that such packages can bo delivered by them only after tho required post age shall have been affixed. It is claim ed that the rural carriers at the re quest of patrons of their routes often call at express offices for packagos of mailable matter and deliver tho same outside of the mails to the patrons and occasionally receive small fees for tho sorvico. W. V. Coxey Leaves Sunbury. W. V. Coxey, formerly of this city, and for some years clerk in tho globe warehouse, at Suubury, has gone to Perth Amboy, N. J.,whore he assumes the management of tho department of white aud wash goods, in tho Boston dry goods store,the largost store of its kind in that city. "Mr. Coxey is a young man of ability and skilled in the dry goods business. Ho will no doubt make a success of his now ven ture, and win to his side many friends," says tho Sunbury Item. BUSY LAWN MOVERS. Tho froquont rains this summer im pose a pretty heavy task on those who havo lawns to care for and tho fami liar sound of the lawn mower is ovor prospnt.

A crop of grass has been cut and there are pros pects of one or more to follow. RETURNED FROM LONG TRIP Jacob Doster Saturday evening re turned home from a lengthy trip, which embraced a tour through tho southern part of tho Union and a visit to Sau Francicso, Denver and other interesting points. Mr. Doster left Danville four wooks ago. Proceodiug to New Orloaus, ho made a trip through the southern part of Texas and Lower California. He visited Los Augeles and Sau Francisco following up tho trail of the groat oarthquako for a considerable distance. At San Francisco, ho says, scarcely more than a beginning has been mado iu clearing away the ruins caused by tho groat earthquako and fire. The debris is thrown aside from tho middle of tho stroets and thus the oloc trie cars aro enabled to run ; but this is the only sign of order au The sixtoou-yoar old daughtor of ' Lewis Johuson, of Little Roaring crook, was bitten Friday morning by a copperhoad snake. 1 The girl was picking borrios noar her home when sho felt a sharp sting on her right ankle. Looking down sho 1 was horrified to see the copper colored i reptile at her foot. Sho ran to tho houso aud told her ! mother of what had happonod. The girl was immediately driven to tho office of Dr. Harpol, this city. By the ! time of her arrival there the ankle had swollen considerably. Antidotes for 1 tho poison woro administered. The ' prompt action in hurriedly taking tho 1 girl to where medical attention could ' bo received no doubt saved her life. Boy Sustains Terrible Injuries. John Pelhauski, aged tt years, who resides with his father on a farm near i Paxinos, was the victim of a terrible accident which occurred on Sunday evening. Tho little follow was engaged in as sisting his father in driving two mules from the baru and when he got too close to ono of the mules, which is very ■ stubborn and wild, the mule kicked tho boy iu the head with terrible re sults. Ho was foiled to tho ground in , an unconscious condition and was car ried to the homo by his father, i Realizing that tho boy had suffered i most serious injuries Dr. Albo!* and Dr. Garingor.of Elysburg, wore quick -1 ly summoned and upon examination tlioy found that tho iron hoofs of tho mule had completely caved in the frontal bono of tho boy's head, both 1 sidos of the skull was fractured and the membrane covering the gray mat ter of tho brain woro torn in such a manner that part of tho brain protrud ed from tho wound made iu tho front part of tho head. Monday afternoon Drs. Albert and Garingor, assisted by Dr. Meek, of Shamokin, performed a most delicate operation aud most remarkablo to state tho boy rallied and has a chance to recover. /lore Prisoners Than Beds. Iu sharp contrast to the conditions iu Montour county whoro tho jail 'is not only not crowded but often without any occupants at all, is the condition in our neighboring counties of Colum bia and Northumberland. Down in Suubury the sheriff says that if any more prisoners come to the Northumberland county jail they will havo to bring thoro own cots aud sloe]) iu the corridors. This condition has prevailed in Sunbury for some timo and tho uood for more room thero is chronic. But now from Bloomsburg conies a similar cry. For sometime tho accom modations in the Columbia couuty jail havo boon taxod, and to roliovo the pressure tho commissioners havo decid ed to purchase twelve new cots and mattresses. There aro twenty male prisoners at present coufiued in tho Bloomsburg jail and thero aro but 18 cots for thom to sleep on, thus it has boon necessary to place two men in somo of tho bods. Tamaqiia will spend sll3,ooofor stroet paving and an effort is on foot to havo a larger amount appropriated for tho same purpose next year. IN THE CDSTODY OF SHERIFF MAIERS Daniel Kennedy, the thirteen-yoar old boy who was found guilty of effect ing forciblo entrance into the first ward school building at the May term of court,and who was placed by Judge Evans under the care of Chief of Po lice J. O. Mincomoyor as a probation officer, seems to have forgotten the promises he made to be good and is now back in the custody of the sheriff, a self confessed tliief. During the month or so that havo elapsed since court no particular com plaints were heard concerning the Kennedy boy until Thursday, when he became an object of suspicion by rea son of possessing a sum of moiioy larg er than would likely fall into his hands honestly. It was during the afternoon that ho appoarod at Orth's barber shop, South Danville,and secured change for a one dollar bill. A short time afterwards ho returned and wanted change for a live dollar bill. Being asked to ex plain, the boy -who was accompanied by another lad named Joseph Seaman —statod that they were getting the change for a man who had gone down the railroad but would return. Sus picion by this time was aroused ; the change was rofused aud the officers of Danville woro notified of the occur rence. Somo time later it became known that William Beyors, a half brother of Dan Kennedy had missed seven dol lars. It was learned that boforo going to Riverside tho boy had gotten a two dollar bill changed in this city,which with the five dollar bill presented in South Danville,accounted for the miss ing soven dollars. Tho dollar which was changed at the barber shop, of course, was a portion of the change re ceived for tho two dollars. Noithor Konuody nor Seaman could be found Thursday ovoning and it was supposed that they had gono to North umberland. Friday forenoon, how over, it was loaruod that tho two boys were in Danville. Tho intention of Kennedy, who was still accompanied by young Seaman, it would seem was to get out of town. The boys were first seen near tho I). L. <& W. depot, but at tho sight of Officer Voris they boat a hasty retreat up the track. Justice of tho Poace Oglosby, who was 011 tho spot, startod in 0110 direction and tho officer took tho "other to head off tho boys, but tho latter who woro 011 tho P. & R. switch seeing that they woro likoly to be cornered climbed down the high trestling and ran up the D. L. & W. track. They were fleot footod enough to escape Chief of Police Min comoyor, who was coming down tho railroad. They next sought tho P. & R. station and woro coming down tho track just as Squiro Oglesby—uuob sorvod by them—was entering the sta tion from tho west. Through valuable assistance rendered by Walter Russell, who was called upon to assist, tho boys were captured and held until the offic ers arrived. Konuody admitted his theft; he took tho money—seven dollars—ho said, from under tho carpet, where it was secreted. Thursday evening tho boys went to Bloomsburg, returning at a lato hour. During the night they slept in a house car in company with a tramp. The five dollar bill tho boys said, they succeeded in getting changed in Bloomsburg. With tho exceptiou of a few cents none of tho money was re covered. Tho officers 011 examining the man wiio shared tho houso car with tho boys the night before found some thing ovor a dollar 011 his person, but he stoutly protested that tho money was his own. Tho officers brought the boys down town. Seaman was sent homo and Konuody was givou into tho custody of the sheriff and is still in jail. When before court in May Judge Evans told the boy that he would not send him to tho house of refuge at that timo but would give him another chance. Me then made an order, which in effect suspended sentence and placed the boy uudor tho eare of tho chief of police as probation officer. Two Serious Accidents. Thomas Wellivor, of East Markot. and Honeymoou stroots, is confined to his home suffering with a broken col lar bone and other injuries inflicted by a horse a few days ago. Mr. Wel livor entered tho stable and the horso erowdod him over against tho side of the stall holding him tight and lunch ing him vory badly. It was lator dis covered that his collar bono was brok en. On tho same day Mrs. Susan Ester brook, East Market street, a near neighbor, stepped on a lemon pod and had a severe fall which has since kept her confined to iier bod. Although 110 bones woro broken, her condition is considered rathor serious. In Honor of Hiss Geiger.

While, 110 doubt, to a large number of tax payors the subject is perfectly plain, yet there are others to whom the manner in which taxes are assess ed is uot as clear as it might be, while there are still others, probably woll informed on tho subject, who lose sight of tho fact that this year there is a slight advance in the total mill age ovor last year. The following brief explanation may be found of value : The county tax is 3% mills,the samo as in 11)05. The borough tax is 8 mills, same as last year. Tho school tax is ? mills, 0110 mill more than in 1905. Tho poor tax is 3 mi lis, one-half mill more than last year. The total millage tax for all pur poses, it will be soon, in tho borough of Danville is 81% mills for 1900. In connection with tho above it must bo remembered that the school board assesses a per capita tax of 0110 dollar on each and every male inhabitant 21 years of age and upwards. This per capita tax is iu lieu of occupation tax and by way of father explanation, it might bo remarked that tho school board does not assoss tho occupation of any person for school purposos. Further, in tho borough of Danville and Mahoning township, which con stitute the Danville and Mahoning poor district, there is 110 tax collected on the occupation of the individuals. Elsevvhoro in tho county, in Washing tonvillo and in tho several townships, of courso poor tax is collected on oc cupation and 011 all property. Tho following examples will illust rate tho foregoing: A man has a pioco of real estate valued at one thousaud dollars. His occupation is 0110 hundred dollars making a total valuation of eleven hundred dollars. According to tho above statement his county tax at mills would bo $3.85; his borough tax at 8 mills would bo SB.BO. Tho poor board drops the occupation, 0110 hundred dollars, and at H mills makes the tax #IOO. Tho school board also drops tho occupation and at 7 mills makes the tax SI.OO, adding tho per capita tax of SI.OO, making the tax SB. IK). CONDENSED NEWS. Get rid of the San Jose scale.

Tho Pottsville Republican asserts tiiero is a huckleberry trust in that vicinity, and complains that tho prico has boon needlessly increased from 10 cents to conts a quart. The average farmer is probably not aware of the fact that an average mule soils for $lO a head moro than horses. Such is tho case, and tho prico has been gradually rising for a number of years. Thero has never boon what would bo called an overproduction of mules, while the market has of ton been unable to fully supply tho demaud.

Tho com pany arrived in a spocial car attached to the aftornoon passenger train due to arrivo at South Danville at 2.21, but which Saturday was about half an hour lato. The boys,although bronzed from tho week's exposure, woro in the best of spirits and marchod down Mill stroet with an agilo step. Captain Gearhart states that Company F was especially fortuuate aud that not one of its 1110111- bors foil tho victim of illness or a mis hap of any sort. The conditions at Gottysburg aro nearly ideal for camp ing. As arranged at proseut the tent od field occupies an lmmouse aroa of ground with tho result that thero is an utter absonco of crowding. It hap pened to be the spocial good fortuno of Company F to occupy a point con venient to town, where the sod was growing groon and tho touts had tho appearance of boing pitched on a green lawn. 111 addition there was a certain freedom granted tho soldiors which did not obtain boforo.
