A weak stomach weakens the man,
because it cannot transform the food he
eats into nourishment. Health and

enough food to feed the tissues and re

BASE BALL
IN DANVILLE
The delightful spring weather of
- the two weeks past has turned the
• thoughts of those fond of such sports
1 'to base ball, lawn tenuis and similar
I games.
t : As relates to baseball Danville is
, sure of a good team this summer. The
i I "Old Timers," which afforded such
- j delightful sport to our citizens last,
i ! year, held over and still retain their
■j board of directors and eutire organi/.a
- It-ion as last year. A meeting will bo
1! liebl next week, when the opening
I date, which will be about May 1, will
s| be announced. Grounds for the com
. j ing season have not yet been decided
f' upon. Unless satisfactory arrange
■i incuts can be made with the manage
i! ment of DeWitt's park,grounds may be
- j selected on this side of the river,
-I where several good locations are ill
-{ view.
. i The base ball in Danville as last
- i year will he strictly amateur, niain
- ' taiued for Jhe amusement of the town
• j and not for sellish gain. Whatever
s| accrues over and above expenses is
- divided among the members of the
- team, in addition to which every
• player who is obliged to lose his day's
- j work in order to keep his appointment
with the club is paid for the time lost
at the regular rate of wages received.
The players last year were: Catcher,
Hummer; Pitchers, Malley, Rentier
J and Skoskie ; Short Stop, Gosh ; Ist base
j Hoffman; 2nd base, Clayberger; 3rd
. base, Bingham; Left Field, Davis;
Center Field. Shannon; Right Field,
. Ammerman.
Last year's players are all desirous
of coming back and express themselves
• as delighted with the treatment they
■j received in Danville last year.
. ; Communications have already been
received from many first, class clubs,
{asking for dates on Danville ground,
j among these being the Cuban Giants,
| Bucknell and other crack teams.
s j From the ab >v. it i - obvious that Dan-
I ville can have lirst class base ball the
. j coming season if it wants it. All
j that is required 'if the town is for it
jto show the right interest, extending
'the prop"r eneourtgemeiit and no
' doubt the coming season from a base
, hall standpoint will be as successful
as t ho last.
SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP.
4 Cured by One Bottle of Chamberlain's
j Cough Remedy.
I When I had an attack of grip last
winter (the second one) I actually
| cured myself with one bottle of Cham
! berlain's Cough Remedy," says Frank
W. Perry, Editor of the Enterprise,
j Shortsville, N. Y. "This is the honest
truth. lat all times kept from cough
| ing myself to pieces by taking a tea
' spoonful of this remedy and when tho
coughing spell would come on at night
I I would take a dose and it seemed
t that in the briefest interval the cough
] would pass off and I would goto
j sleep perfectly free from cough and
I its"accompanying pains. To say that
' ! the remedy acted as a most agreeable
' surprise is putting it very mildly. I
had no idea that it would or could
knock out the grip, simply because I
l had never tried it for such a purpose,
, I but it did, and it seemed with the
second attack of coughing tho remedy
caused it to not only be of loss dura
tion, but the ]tains were far less se
vere, and I had not used tin* contents
of one bottle before Mr. Grip had bid
me adieu."For sale by Paules & Co.
Crusade Against Dime Novels.
Rumor has it that a crusade will be
inaugurated in Bloomsburg for the
purpose of suppressing the sale and
distribution of "dime novels" and
other trashy literature.
The movement is one which may
endanger the "profits" of those who
1 handle them, but if it can be sue
' cessfully carried out there is no ques
tion but that the youth of our town
1 will be greatly benefitted thereby

GOOD ROADS
BILLS DOOMED
For many years tho agitation foi
good roads in this State lias been con
tinned, persistently but in a dignified
manner. Before every session of tin
Legislature the matter is thoroughly
discussed, but every session has seen
the friends of the improvement mea
sure disappointed, nothing having
been done by the Legislature toward
achieving the desired end. If the im
provement of the roads were unneces
sary, a mere scheme of faddists, thi>
disappointment could be lightly
borne; but as it is a great public
necessity the continued refusal or fail
ure of legislators to perform an ob
vious duty is wearing upon patience.
It is a known fact that the roads ol
this State are wretched; that many of
them are almost if not wholly impass
able in weather that could have but
little if any ill effect upon good roads
that good roads would benefit not only
farming communities but the industri
al centres that draw their subsistence
from contiguous rural districts; thai
good roads would make possible the
selling of farm products at prices low
er than thoso which now rule, with
out reducing the income of the farmer.
In fact they would directly or indi
rectly benefit all the people of tin
State.
The present Legislature has beer
pottering along with good roads bills,
giving little assurance that one wil
be enacted. The friends of the mea
sure have consented to a reduction ol
the proposed appropriation, and an
willing to concede almost anything t<
get the movement started in somt
measure. Gentlemen of the Legisla
ture, it is up to you. You know bet
ter roads are needed. Pass a bill pro
viding for them.

TWENTY-EIGHT
YEARS AGO
Twenty-eight years ago Tut sday
tho river bridge at this place was car
ried away by the flood anil there is a
great deal in the circumstance toil
lustrate the variable climate of thi
, section of the Union.
While the grass at present is becom
ing green, while yesterday overcoats j
were a burden and a balmy flood of i
sunlight bathed the earth characteris
tic of spring time, on the same date,
March 17th, twenty-eight years ago
there was a deep snow on the ground ;
the weather was cold, sleighing was
good and the ice on the river was near
ly or quite a foot in thickness.
The departure of the river bridge
forms an episode in the history of
Danville which will not soon be for
gotten. Those just entering manhood
and womanhood then are now person •
| of middle life.
The bridge went away on St. Pat
rick's Day and this anniversary assi-t>
to recall the event, which was more
| extensively remarked upon yesterday
than for many years past owing to
the wonderful contrast in climatic
conditions which marked the two
i dates.
On the morning of the day on which
the bridge was cairied away there was
no indication of a flood. Owing to
: some cause that has never baen ex
plained the ice broke and was carried
j a mile or so down the river,where the
huge cakes formed a jam, darning the
river. The water backed up Mahon
i iiig creek flooding a large portion of
the town and depositing cakes of ice
; around the big mill. At no time since
has such a large portion of the borough
j been inundated. In several of the
streets boats were used.
The Catawissa bridge was also car
ried away. It came down the river
during tho afternoon and striking the
Danville bridge knocked one section
from the piers, after which span after
j span was carried away until only a
small portion of the big structure re
mained.

PRIMARY
ELECTION HILL
Hon. R. S. Aminrman, ]n>-«l a
primary election bill in t• liouw at
Harrisburg, Monday, which provides
for a uniform system for (In- nomina
tion of candidates for all oflic to be
fillt <1 hy flu- voto of the people. The
bill provides for the retaining c>f the
conferee system now in force in all
Senatorial, Congressional and Jndi
cial districts comprising or consisting
of one or more counties. There shall
he two primary elections held each
year, one on tho second Tuesday of
Jane. They shall be conducted bv
the general election officers of the res
pective election districts at tb reg
ular polling places. The bill defines
tho qualification of electors,the nature
and character of tho ballot, and the
form or system regulating tlio conduct
of such elections. The hill also pro
vides for the expenses of the holding
of such elections at the cost of the sev
eral counties of the state and prescrib
es penalties for violations of its pro
visions. All nominations under the
act are to be made by the majority
vote in the districts.
Y. M. 0. A. Notes.
When President Ingalls, of the Big
Four and C. and O. railways, w
first asked to establish the Association
for the benefit of his employees, be
frankly said lie did not believe it
would be of practical benefit "to tin
hard-working, every-day railroad
man." He was finally induced to
give it a trial, and a Railroad Depart
ment was established in rented quar
ters at Cincinnati, in 1890. After
twelve years of careful testing he was
recently approached for assistance in
providing a now Association building
at Brightwood, lud., and in a fiv» -
minute interview promised SI.">,OUO
towards a $20,000 building. Tins
prompt response is a strong endorse
ment of the practical value of the As
sociation "to the hard-working rail
road man. " This will make thirteen
new Association buildings erected
wholly or in part by these two railway
companies, while the work is also
maintained at eight other points in
well-equipped rented quarters or
buildings owned by the company, a
total of twenty-one Associations on
the two lines of railway.
Must Keep Out.
The superintendent of the Phila
delphia and Heading Railroad has is
sued "keep-out" notices to all the
