The persistent rumor to the effect that the Pennsylvania railroad company in tends to construct a branch road from Kiverside to this city anil thence along the abandoned canal to Berwick has, it would seem, a material foundation to rest upon. Some facts came to the sur face yesterday, which while not design ed for the public, nevertheless tend to confirm the rumor. Developments, here, that relate to the Pennsylvania railroad oompany will therefore be watched with no little interest in the near future. It is no secret that the construction of the branch described has been con templated by the Pennsylvania railroad company for a year or more past. The survey was made during the summer of 1900, which included a topographical survey, leaving things in such shape that an estimate of cost could at any timebemade. The "Harrisburg Inde pendent" is authority for the statement that the contract for building the branch will soon be awarded. There is said to be some doubt as to where the proposed branch may cross the river—whether at Sunbury, where the company already owns a bridge or at this place where one remains to be built. The fact, however, that there is a double track extending from Sunbury to Kiverside, it is thought, will weigh in favor of building a bridge at this place. The point here for the bridge covered by the survey made is between Kiver side and the lower end of the borough •of Danville.

G Smith Mrs. Na tion Coming ta Danville Our readers will be surprised to learn that during the six months or more past during which Mrs. Carrie Nation has been the subject ot so much news and criticism, every line of which was eagerly read, that Danville has had in its midst as one of its most prominent citizens a gentleman who has known the 'smasher" from way back, the rela tions of the two being, to use the gen tleman's own words, almost those of mother and son. Another disclosure, still more startl ing is the fact that Carrie Nation is coming to Danvil'.t that she will arrive in the near future and will in all proba bility deliver a lecture. The gentleman of our city who is so well acquainted with Mrs. Nation is I G. Smith, formerly proprietor of the "Racket store" and at present one of the manufacturers of the safety wagon skein or spindle. Mr. Smith's name in connection with Mrs. Nation's came to the surface lirst in an article printed in these columns Saturday morning last,re lating to a box of goods addressed to the "smasher" in Mr. Smith's care, which arrived at Williamsport last week. Mr. Smith was seen later by a represent ative of the NEWS. The box, he says, which has excited so much curiosity about Williamsport, contains souvenir hatchets, designed for Danville, but sent to Williamsport by mistake. Mr. Smith reached in his pocket and produced both the bill of lading and the invoice belonging to the box. It will be well taken care of at Williamsport, he ex plained, until the proper time when it will be forwarded to Danville. It is plain, therefore, that Williamsport so jubilant over the prospects of a visit will be given the go-by and that it is Danville that will be honored with Car rie's presence. Mr. Smith related how it happened that Mrs. Nation and himself became such warm friends. Many years ago, when still in his 'teens he lived in Tex as. While canvassing in the town of Richmond, that state, where Mrs. Na tion resided, he was taken very ill and was cared for at her home. He was con fined to his bed for a long time but the good woman, he declares, was "more than a mother to him" and tenderly nursed him back to health. In ali the years succeeding, he says, there has not been a period of three months in which he has not received a letter from Mrs. Nation. In proof Mr. Smith drew a package of letters from the inside pocket of his coat, nearly all of which were from Carrie. One was written while in jail at Topeka, Kan. All were couched in the most friendly terms, and contained some allusion to her visit to Danville. In several she says:"l shall surely come." Mr. Smith says that Mrs. Nation ivat present at Huflalo, N. \ ~ and that there is no doubt but that her visit to Dan ville will take place in the near future. During her visit, he says, she desires to be his personal guest. Mrs. Nation was very anxious to as sist the local Y. M. C. A. and ottered her services gratis, but the two lecture courses were already made up for the season. Stricken With Paralysis. Henderson Grimett, of this place, was stricken with partial paralysis and com pletely lost the use of one arm and side. After being treated by an eminent phy sician for quite a while without relief, my wife recommended Chamberlain's Pain Balm, and after using two bottles of it he is almost entirely cured.— GEO. R. MCDONALD, Man, Logan county, W. Va. Several other very remarkable cures of partial paralysis have been ef fected by the use of this liniment. 11 is most widely known, however, as a cure for rheumatism, sprains and brnises.

The Philadelphia Record on Sunday contained the following dispatch from Shamokin: Miss Emily Maxwell, of Danville, the pretty young daughter of William Max well, w-as to have been married at a friend's house here this morning,to Ben jamin F. Abrams. The marriage license was procured yesterday and the minist er engaged. Last night Abrams dis appeared. The young couple came here from La porte last Thursday. He was engaged in bridge building in Laporte and there was taken ill. Miss Maxwell went to his bedside and nursed him. He prom ised to marry her, and they selected this place for the proposed wedding. She is prostrated over the desertion and the police are looking for him. Ninety-eight Per Cent. There is a fascination about big pro fits toa business man. But the con servative and cautious trailer prefers to have the lesser per cent, of interest and the laager per cent, of safety to his in vestment. There is na business man who would not consider it a sound pro position to invest in an enterprise in which absolute loss was impossible and which offered ninety-eight chances in a hundred of a rich profit. The statistics of cures effected by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery shows that ninety eight i>er cent, of cases of "weak lungs can be absolutely cured. Almost if not all forms of physical weakness may be traced to starvation. Starvation saps strength.

The big stories told about town Tues day relating to Charles Milleman, tlie "detective" who has been about town for a coupb of weeks pa«t. are dis credited in Sunbury. Tiie Sunbury Daily of Tuesday says: A sensational story that sounds plausi ble but lacks foundation in Sunbury,was sent out from Danville today. The ac count is that several months ago the head bookkeeper for 11. i». Clafflin k Co., one of the largest wholesale establish ments in New York city, embezzled $35,000 of the firm's money and made good his escape. Two weeks ago Charles Milleman, a New York detective, was in formed that the fugitive would meet his wife in Sunbury. The sleuth came on the ground bat failed to bag his man. discovering that the embezzler had gone to Danville. The story from Danville also has it that last night .Milleman hired a team 1 there and drove to Sunbury, returning it with the driver, telling him he would not be back himself, as his man was un der arrest here, and that he would take him to New York on the lirst train.

V HEMPE jh •#/ • V" m 0 • • r Count v Commissioner Hiram Handel of We'l Hem! i'k to»\usliip, <lll ono of his recent \isits to town relate 1 an in teresting fact touching On natural his tory which is especially apropos just now during the hunting season when the subject of quail anil the like monop olizes so much of the conversation among hunters. Although there are a good many full sized quail this year the large number of those comparatively small has been remarked. The latter, Mr. S.indel says, are the product of a second hatching. Every year the farmer in operating his mowing and reaping machines unavoid ably destroys a great number of nests. The quail is a peculiar bird ami once her nest is disturbed, even though thf eggs have not been broken, will never return; she will rebuild. Jay other eggs and sit again. The above, however, is only incident al. The fact we wish to relate is as fol lows: Mr. Sandel last summer in mow ing his fields ran over quite a number of nests. Knowing the habits of the birds he one day collected ail the eggs that were unbroken and place 1 them under a hen. The hen faithfully stuck to her task and indue time was rewarded with a whole nest full of "peeps," diminutive specimens, it is true, with the most pe culiar kind of chirp. The old h»-n, how ever, with unquestioning faith overlook ed these oddities, accepted the brood as her own and proceeded to do her duty by them in the most motherly way. All went tolerably well until the birds attained some size, when if ever a moth er had trials and tribulations that lien had hers. The birds were not born for any sort of restraint. They paid little attention to the old hen's clucking,*H*en if they understood her, which is not. likelv, as before they were anything like half grown they had developed a lan guage that was entirely foreign t > any thing heard in the barn yard. With the first streak of dawn they would scramble out of the nest and in a short time the little "Hob Whites'' would be heard singing their morning *ong in many different directions. Al though this was much earlier than the hen was accustomed to arise yet she im patiently set out after her freakish youngsters and for a few mornings act ually succeeded in collecting them to gether and restoring them under her wings. It was not lung, however, until one day the old hen was found suli'ary and alone. The hist of her brood yield ing to their wild nature hail taken to the fields where they found welcome with a covey of quail. Miss Catherine Flick, of West Hem lock township, while visiting her niece, Mrs. Albert Weidman, East Market stre»-t, Sunday, met with a lata! acci dent. She was nil xiolls to assist Imr niece and in clearing away the breakfast en tered the cellarway. She was in the act of hanging up a dish ba»in when she stepped backward i>tl the landing. She took a frightful plunge headfirst down the stairs. Near the bottom, after ta'l itig at least e'ght feet she struck the step, the force of the impact splitting the thick board. Mr. Weidman ran to the woman's as sistance, carrying her up stairs. She was unconscious. Dr. Winter-teen in response to a call was present five min utes after the accident. There was an enlargement at the back of the injured woman's head and the doctor at once saw that the case was doubtful. Stim ulants were administered, which tem porarily revived the patient so that she could utter a few words that were more or less intelligible. An hour later, how ever, she lapsed into unconsciousness, which was caused bv a rupture of a blood vessel on the brain. At noon Dr. Newbaker was called in consultation,.when owing to the pati eut's advanced aye—B3 years—it was not deemed advisable to make any fur ther examination »o determine whether or not her skull was fractured. As evening approached it became apparent that she could not survive and the doc tor informed the friends that death might occur at any hour. Miss Flick is well known through out West Hemlock and is most highly esteemed. She resides with her broth er, Jacob Flick, who was one of the first to reach this city after the accident.

Miller, of Lebanon, accompani ed by K. U. Hartman, Chief Engineer of the Fire Department of that city, was in Danvilie yesterday. Last evening lie conducted a series of interesting ex periments in the engine house of the Friendship Fire company to demonst rate the merits of the American (Dry Powder) fire extinguisher, of which he is the inventor. Among the claims made for the "dry powder" is that it is superior to any j other fo-in of extinguisher in putting out lire iti which gasoline or oil of any kind plays a part. A handful of powder thrown on the flame instantly extin guished it by forming a combination of gases in which carbonic acid is the prin cipal element. Water or any liquid ap plied to such a fire, it was claimed, only causes it to spread. in stores and such places where water results in as much damage as the fire it extinguishes dry powder would seem to be invaluable. The County Commissioners yesterday purchased two of the Dry Powder Ex. tinirui-hers —o: e for the Court House and (he other for the jit!. ITS COMMON.

Till* Quality I* a* Much a. Xece»Hity an 1m Nutriment. Chemists tell us that cheese is one of the most nutritious and at the same time one of the cheapest of foods. Its nutritive value is greater than meat, while its cost is much less. But this I chemical aspect of the matter does not I express the real value of the cheese as I a food. Cheese is eaten not because of ! its nutritive value as expressed by the ' amount ol' ; uteids. fats anil carboliy i drates that it contains, but always be j cause of its flavor. Now, physiologists do not find that flavor has any food value. They teach I over and over again that our foodstuffs - are proteids. fats and carbohydrates and ' that as food flavor plays absolutely no part. But at the same time they tell us that the body would be unable to live upon these foodstuffs were it not for the flavors. If one were compelled to eat pure food without flavors, like the white of an egg, it is doubtful whether one could for a week at a time consume a sufficiency of food to supply his bod ily needs. Flavor is as necessary as nu trimerft. It gives a zest to the food and thus enables us to consume it properly, and, secondly, it stimulates the glands to secrete, so that the foods may be satisfactorily digested and assimilated. The whole art of cooking, the great development of flavoring products, the high prices paid for special foods like lobsters and oysters—these and numer ous other factors connected with food supply and production are based solely upon this demand for flavor. Flavor is a necessity, but it is not particularly important what the flavor may be. This is shown by the fact tiiat different peo ples have such different tastes in this respect The garlic of the Italian and the red pepper of the Mexican serve the same purpose as the vanilla which we putin our ice cream, and all play the part of giving a relish to the food and stimulating the digestive organs to proper activity. —Professor H.

We can understand the flapping of the eagle's immense wing supporting a comparatively light body. Rut our little bird has a plump body.
