IMIAITLL PKIICEEIIINGS The school board for the year 1902-51 effected ail organization Monday night. The officers of last year were re-elect ed with the exception of Jacob Fisch er, who decliued a nomination for president on the ground that lie had filled that office for two years pa-.t and that lie felt the honor this year should be conferred upon some other mem ber. Dr. Barber was accordingly nom inated for president by Mr. Keefer and he was unanimously elected. The only change in the personnel of the board this year occurs in Second Ward where Grant Fenstermacher re tires. D. E. Hariug, who was elected to succeed him, is at present employ ed in Waynesboro, Va., and was not present Monday to take the oath of office. Other directors, sworn in, to succeed themselves, were as follows: Dr. F. E. Harpel, of the First Ward; Jacob Fischer, of the Third Ward ; and Walter O. Green of the Fourth Ward. Before the old board adjourned Treasurer M. H. Schram presented his annual report, explaining that his books had been audited. The audit ors' report was read whereupon on mo tion the Treasurer's report was ac cepted and ordered spread upon the minutes. Gn motion of Mr. Keefer the annual report of the school district was order ed to be printed in The Morning News and in the Montour Democrat. On motion of Mr. Keefer the school term was fixed at it months, to open on the second Tuesday of September. On motion of Dr. Curry Monday evening June 30th was selected for the annual election of teachers and janit ors. Several members urged an earlier date, but it was explained that there will be this year three vacancies to fill and in view of the fact that sever al of the applicants are at the Normal school, prospective graduates, and will not be free until some time later it was agreed to defer the election as long as possible. On motion of Dr. Curry the mini mum rate ot' attendance for the school term was fixed at 75 per cent. On motion of Mr. Green the tax rate for the ensuing year was fixed at mills. Several members favored a low er rate, but it was conclusively shown that a slight advance above last year's rate was imperative in order to meet the annual expenditures of the district.

The success of this work is shown in the excellent commence ments that are to be held to-day by the grammar seniors and by the number who will receive diplomas. To-mor row evening, tlie High School com mencement exercises will be he-Id in tin* Opera House. Consigned to the Grave. The funeral of the late Charles H.

E , will go to Bloomsburg this evening to visit Bloomsburg Lodge HEATH in-' JOSEPH MORGAN Joseph G. Morgan,a brother of Mrs. VV. H. Amnierman died Friday at Milton in the fiftieth year of his age. A widow aiul four children survive him. The sense of personal loss can come to only those who knew and loved Joseph. lie was a Danville hoy. In years gone by, he was part of its active life and added sunshine wher ever he went. "Joe" was kind, gentle and sympa thetic. He loved the good and true and beautiful. in the grasp of his hand, the merry music of his laugh and voice, the magnetism of his na ture and bis genuine whole heartedness always found expression. "Joe" was a blacksmith—aside from the few early years of romping boyhood, Joe spent his life before the glow of the forge, amid the shower of iron sparks and flashes and the sounds of ringing an vils. He learned his trade with Keely andTrumbower and was an apprentice in the same shop and at the same time with James Scarlet. He became a skilled workman and for the last twenty five years has been the leading artisan in the shop of Shinier and Son, The sum of his activities is bound ed by the limitations of his work such as measure and environ the life of most artisans. Not a wide sphere No, hut in it and throughout the whole of the years of toil, Joe, was the champion of Justice, devoted to truth and the practice of virtue and the friend of Charity In these years, he rounded out the full measure of a man, made the most of the stuff that was in him and shed around him the helpful influence of a noble self-deny ing manhood. Danville may take pride in the fame of many of her sous, but in kindness of heart and in the achievement of true nobleness of character, none will add more to her glory than good kind and gentle "Joe" Morgan. And Joe died like a man. To his poor blind wife who had grojx'd from her bed of sickness to touch his hand and say good bye, Joe, was still the gentle helpful "Joe" of old. "My work is done. It is the end of worry and work and work and worry. Be brave and true and we soon shall meet again. God bless you all, good bye." And so he fell asleep. The lives of those who knew him are the bettor for it. The memory of "Joe" will always be a helpful inspiration to the hand that pens these lines and in doing so drops a tear in tribute to the friend who shared with hiin and lightened the toil of many a weary day in the blacksmith shop in Danville. Every Republican voter should attend the Primaries tomorrow evening. Home From Miners' Hospital. Harry Kennedy returned to his home in Riverside yesterday after being five weeks in the Miners' hospital, at Fountain Springs, near Ashland. Nine years ago he was injured in the Northern Central yard at Suubury and his left leg had to be amputated. It always caused hiui considerable trouble and became so sore that he went to Fountain Springs and had a second operation performed. Two inches were taken off the leg and it lias healed up nicely. Mr. Kennedy speaks highly of' his treatment at the hospital and received a hearty greet ing from his many friends. More Machinery For Silk Mill. The new addition to the east end of the Silk Mill will make room in the main building for more machinery, which is to be installed as soon as the addition is completed.

As soon as it is removed work on the new addition will be commenced. Three Canines in Belligerent Mood. Three canines sought trouble last evening and got together on Mill street. The battle was fast and fur ious and the dogs did plenty of growl ing. They took up nearly the whole street and several times crowded the sidewalk. When they got on the pave ment the pedestrians gave them a wide berth. The noise of the figlit drew quite a crowd.The animals were final ly separated, with their desire for trouble well satisfied.

S (Other Personals on Fourth Page ) HEATH OF DEV. HIT. MCATEE Rev. Dr. William A. McAfee, since I I s;i 1 pastor of the Grove Presbyterian ! church, died at the Presbyterian Ifos ' pital, New York,on Friday night last. I That Dr. McAfee was undergoing hospital treatment was a fact not gen erally known even by the members of his congregation and tie* news of his death came as a great shock. Four weeks ago Monday Dr. McAfee left this city, fully expecting ito return before the following Sab j bath. He seemed in his usual health ; I that he was in any way afflicted was j not dreamed of. He was next beard ! from iti New York, where he was join* :od by his wife on the Friday follow - j i'ltf- The first surprise came with a let i ter from Mrs. McAfee stating that Dr. : McAfee was about undergoing a sur gical operation, a preliminary opera tion having been already performed. The next tidings brought the news that the operation had been successful ly performed and that the patient was doing well. A letter quite foreboding l in tone written in New York Friday and received in this city Saturday ' morning stated that a third operation ■ had been performed, as a result of I which Dr. McAtee was very low. The j letter, which was received shortly be ; f*re 8 o'clock, was followed three ! hours later by a telegram stating that ; he had passed away during Friday j night. The body arrived at this city Mon day on the 12:47 I). L. & W. train ac companied bv Mrs. McAtee and Mr. 1 8. F. McAtee, cousin of the deceased j clergyman. The funeral taking I place from the parsonage, Tuesday at 1(1 a. m., services being conducted by Rev. Elliott O. Armstrong and Rev. j James Carter of Williamsport. The remains were taken to Elmira, N. I Y., for interment, leaving South Dan i ville on the 12:15 Pennsylvania train, i Dr. McAtee was a man of extraor | dinary attainments. As a scholar he had 1 few peers in the Presbyterian church. | lie was always a student, reading, studying, searching for new facts. lb was posted on all subjects—always abreast with the times. As a speaker lie was remarkably gifted. Whether in preaching or in conversation his expression was marked with a charm of diction which fascinated one. Uu marred by a word inappropriate or superfluous his elegantly rounded sen tences were indeed fit vehicles to con i vey the ripe thought which marked bis discourses. He was a man of strong reasoning power and his sermons, logical,concise.denunciatory of wrong yet never uncharitable were gems that were commented upon on every side. Dr. McAfee was not demonstrative in his manner; he was dignified and to those who knew him only superfi cially lie might have seemed austere and distant, but no conception could be more unjust. A member of the Grove Presbyterian church whose,rel ations, with the pastor brought their lives very close together Saturday night remarked: "No man had a warmer heart than Dr. McAtee. There was nothing cold or selfish about him. He may have been a man not easily understood but down below the surface he was a mine of love and generosity" Dr. McAtee was filling his second pastorate at Grove Presbyterian church his first pastorate covering a period of 5 years between 1874 and 187!'. The funeral of the late Rev. Dr. W. A. McAtee took place Tuesday. Ser vices were held at the manse of the Grove Presbyterian church at 10 a. m. ' Among those assembled to pay their last tribute of respect to the deceased clergyman,in addition to the members of the congregation were several clergy men of this city belonging to other denominations as well as members of the bar and others. Among those from out of town were: Miss Agnes Mc- Atee of Clifton Springs, sister of the deceased; B. F. McAtee, Esq., of Bethlehem, a cousin; Mrs. Sayles and son of Elmira, N. Y. ; Thomas Wire man of Harrisburg; Rev. Dr. Heming way of Bloomsburg; Dr. Watson of Lock Haven, who was a fellow stud ent of Dr. McAtee at college. The services were conducted by Rev. E. C. Armstrong and Rev. James Cart er of Williamsport. Rev. Armstrong read the 2:>r IN l*r>s. JOINED l.\ MATRIMONY The Wedding of Mi-s Cordelia G. Woolley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. 11. Woollcv, to l»r.

In the drawing room, pink roses ami rose colored peonie* formed the decora tions, garlands of roses trailing across the tall mirrors and hanging in fes toons at the doorway.The dining room and hall were gay in their festive dress of red roses, peouies and laurel, so that June seemed to have emptied its wealth of roses at the feet of the bride. The wedding ceremony was perform ed by Rev. Erskine Wright, rector of Christ Episcojial church. To the strains of the Lohengrin wedding march, rendered by Mrs. Colvin of New York the bride came down the broad flower wreathed stair case preceded by the flower girl, little Cordelia Frick, and followed by the matron of honor, Mrs. John R. Sharp less of Hazleton. Mr. Robert H. Woolley met his daughter at the foot of the stairs and led her to the library door where the groom with his brother, W. Dosh Holloway, joined her. They walked to the flowered alcove where the of ficiating clergyman awaited them and the ceremony was performed. Miss Woolley's dress was of white Paris muslin trimmed with lace and insertion and finished with a sash and stock collar of white satin. In her arms she carried a huge loose bunch of white roses. Her matron of honor wore white and carried pink roses as did the small flower girl. A large reception followed the cere mony, attended by friends of the family in Danville and many from neighboring towns. The luncheon which was served on the third floor, was the most recherche and elegant. An entire room on second floor was filled with the many and costly wed ding gifts, which testified to the popularity of the young couple.
