EAGLES HERE All ART CENTER The eighth anuual Assembly of tin Kag*» Mere Chautauqua will be in session from July 16 to Septt mber 3, 1903. During the Assembly the sum mer schools will be in progress, and the high standard established by the schools will be fully maintained Special attention will be given to the Art department, under Mr. J. Wt sley Little, and to the School ot Photo graphy, which is iu charge of Mr. J. Horace McFarland. The haudsomt building erected for the use of these departments is fully equipped, and a constant exhibition of water colors, charcoal sketches and pictorial photo graphs will be maintained during the season. These departments have been successful, and the periodical recep tions, at which the work of students was displayed in connection with the permanent exhibition, were very large ly attended. Instruction is given iu water coloi painting, as well as iu charcoal and other black-and-white mediums. The sketch class under Mr. Little's direc tion, aud in connection with the un equaled beauties of the place, always produce very satisfactory results. Eagles Mere Chatauqua has for years been an art center of no mean repute. The photographic school was opened in 1901, under Mr. McFarland, and its work was very satisfactory. The effort Is to teach true pictorial photography, and the fine equipment of the school aids iu securing notably rapid progress for thoughtful students. Ordinary portraiture is neither practiced,taught nor encoutaged; the purpose of the •chool is to bring about the adequate recording by the camera of outdoor scenes aud the beauties of nature. While those totally unacquainted with the camera as a means of artistic ex pression are taught a safe ground work upon which to proceed, especial attention is given to advance students, who wish to make use of the camera for illustrative and decorative work. Dr. H. 3. Wiugert, who lias had charge of the Physical Culture depart ment for several years past, will re turn, and will conduct his swimming school, which has become- such a popular feature. In arranging for the evening enter tainments in the auditorium, it has been the aim of the mauagi mcnt to secure only high class talent.

Every oven lug during the sev< u weeks of the As sembly there will he something inter esting iu the auditorium. Tim pro gramme has been prepared with the thought of combining instruction and amusement, and there will he no dry, nuiuteresting lectures. Instead, the idea of wliolesoun entertainment hat been kept closely in view. New Mileage Books, What will be known as the eastern interchangeable mileage book will go Into effect the first of May.

BROADENING CHARITY Local Freemasons are much interest id in a movement to establish "Masonic Homes" on an entirely new basis,pro viding not only lor the care of indi gent brethren, but also their wives, widows aud children. The measure its been endorsed by the two local Masonic lodges aud John VV. Farus worth of this city, who as District Deputy Grand Master, is one of a com mittee appointed to confer with the lodges of this district, states that ho finds Freemasons practically unani nious m supporting this departure, which carries with it increased help fulness and broadening charity. It is under the inspiration of Edgar A. Tennis, Grand Master, that the Masonic lodges of Pennsylvania are voting so enthusiastically on the new measure, which provides that two homes be instituted—one in Central, and the other in Western Pennsyl vania. Those will be homes in fact and deed, where husband, wife and children, victims of misfortune, may together enjoy the liberality and help fulness for which the institution stands pre-eminent. Admission to these homes will be absolutely free, so that Pennsylvania Freemasonry is placed on the same plane of eleemosy nary work as other jurisdictions. The present home at Philadelphia is full and besides is confined to Masons only. There has hitherto been no pro vision for Masons' wives, or children except in such private way as the in clination and principles of the order dictated when liberality was called for by the exigencies of each particu lar case. A fund of $50,000 bequeathed for the purpose of enlarging the active benefits is a foundation for the new movement. It will supplement any tax laid by the grand lodge or rather be a nucleus for such additional source of income for the support- of such institutions as the wisdom of the Grand Body may de vise. This will permit aged and indigent Masons to pass their declining years in comfort without being severed from those they love aud are not longer able to support. Their children will also receive the care and education needed to lit them for the struggle of life. It is a distinct departure iu this state from the system of private charities and taking in the wives and children it will be of incalculable benefit, illustrating how much good a benevolent institution such as Free masonry may accomplish. Drunkards Gan be Committed. Governor Peuuypacker Thursday signed a bill to provide for the com mitment of persons habitually addicted to the use of alcoholic drink or in toxicating drugs to a hospital or asy lum on petition to the Court of two relatives or friends of the alleged drunkard. Before such person is admitted into the institution payment must have been made or security giveu to the authorities for his board, care and treatment and to indemnify them from all cost and expense. No person shall be kept iu restraiut for more than otio year, and all commitments under the act are reviewable by habeas eorpu- proceedings at any time. ELECTION CLERK'S PAY RAISED The Governor al-o signed bills al lowing Justices of the Peace $3 per year for taking care of the ballot box or boxes left in their custody ; increas ing the pay of clerks to election boards from $3 to |3.50 a day ; requiring elec tion watchers to be residents of the district or division within which they act. The following biilsalso received ex cutive approval: Providing for the publication of orders or rules made by courts in •ouuties having a population of less than 300,000 for sale by the County Commissioners to lawyers at a cost of $2 per copy.

Mrs. William DoWitt of South Dan ville, was bitten by a dog while pass ing along Water street this city, Sat urday afternoon. The dog, which was of the hound tire d, it is alleged, without any pro vocation, as the woman was passing leaped out and seized her by the arm. The bite inflicted was not a very se rious one, although Mrs. DeWitt was very badly shocked aud frightened. The owner of the hound much re grets the occurrence and will take incisures to prevent its repetition. There is no suspicion whatever that the dog was mad. Dr. P. C. Newbaker gave Mrs. De- Witt the surgical attention that she required. Out for Conference Secretary. liev A. L Miller, pastor of the Carawissa Methodist church, and a former pastor of St. Peter's church, South Danville, has announced his canlidacv for the secretaryship of the Central Pennsylvania conference and every indication points to his being to that office. For nine years lie has been the conference recorder and has executed the work in a way that has marked his minutes as the uio«t cutnpli te of any Methodist con ference. Having held the recorder ship for so long he is naturally eager to secure the higher position, which carries with it no little work. The election will beheld at conference next year and there is every reason to believe he will be successful. Makes a Clean Sweep. There's nothing like doing a thing thoroughly.

NATURALIZATION LAW IN EFFECT The Clerk of the Courts has receiv ed a copy of the new law recently passed by Congress regulating the naturalization of aliens. The law was passed iu February ot this year and on March 3, received the approval of President Roosevelt. The law was passed by Congress in response to the appeals of the people of the country, the assassination of President McKinley being attributed in a large measure to the presence in the country of so many aliens of an archistic tendencies. Under the new law no alien belong ing to an organization that advocates assaulting or killing of any officer or officers of the United States or any other organized government can be come a citizen of the United States. An alien holding such belief is also barred from entering into this country. Judges having jurisdiction of na turalization proceedings or duties to perform in regard thereto shall, ou the final application for naturalization, make careful inquiry into such mat ters and before issuing the final order or certificate of naturalization cause to be entered on record the affidavit of the applicant aud of his witnesses so far as applicable, reciting and affirming the truth of every material fact requisite for naturalization. Any person who purposely procures naturalization in violation of the pro vision of this law shall be fined not more than fa,ooo,or shall be imprison ed not less than one nor more than ten years, or both. Any person who knowingly aids, advises or encourages any such person to apply for or secure naturalization, or to file the preliminary papers de claring an intent to become a citizen of the United States, or who in any naturalization proceeding knowingly makes an affidavit false as to any mat erial fact required to be proved in, such proceeding, shall bo fined not more than $5,000, or imprisoned not less than one or more than ten years or both. Friends Tell of Elysburg Affair. Friends of the W. C. T. U. of Elys burg taKe exceptions to the statements of the graduating class that they in sulted them, and iu the followiug communication give a true history ot the whole matter: On the basis of the fact that some of the parents conscientiously objected to their children going to the saloon for the Senior class supper, the W. C. T. U. iu order to have all the class to gether made the followiug proposition to the Senior class, which was the only "letter" sent to E. K. Richards, principal, or the Senior class by any of the ladies: The ladies of the \\. C. T. U. will give a banquet at the Hoff House (A temperance house) a the close of the graduating exercises Apr. 11th for the classes ot 1903 and 1901, the alumni, the teachers of the high school, and the school board at 35 cents a plate; the proceeds to be given the Elysburg high school for the organ Fund, by older of committee. The above proposition disproves the statements ot the class that "in the attempt to prevent the banquet being held at the hotel the class says the -ooiety insulted them by quoting Scripture to the principal which ac cused him of things of which he was not guilty." At the commencement proper because the class historian re ferring to the W. C. T. U. made some unbecoming allusions to the temper ance interests one of the best citizens of the community arose at the clo-e of the exercises and resented the unkind thrusts at the temperance workers in words showing the courage of honest convictions. Nervous Dyspepsia It Cause and Cure Overwork any organ audit gives out the stomach is no exception. Ask it to dige-t anything, everything at any time in half the time required, and like an over driven horse, it balks. Nature intended tiie stomach should have regular hours. A time to work, a time to rest —and when you break up this habit, you upset the whole ar rangement. The stomach nerves be come exhausted, the glands refuse to act, the food does not digest—lies heavy, ferments and repeats. There is pain, gas forms,bloating occurs, tlu tieart becomes irregular and a nervous irritable feeling sets in. This is ner vous dyspepsia aud Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Pills its cure. Mrs. M. Fields of No. 128 Pine St., Danville, Pa., says:—"l had been bothered a good deal for some time with a nervous indigestion and wn feeling generally run down. I did not rest well and had frequent nerv ous headaches. I got some of Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Pills at Gosh's Drug Store and used them and know that they are an excellent medicine.

DISCOVERED James Brennan, of Centralia, has made a discovery that may make him famous and may lead to the revela tion of an ancient but hitherto im pregnable secret. Mr. Brennan has discovered how to weld copper and lias thus taken the first step toward discovering how to temper it that it may be given an edge. His discovery has aroused wide spread interest, especially among men who have de clared that this feat was impossible of aecom plishment. Mr. Brennan is a blacksmith by trade and for several years past has been employed as chief inspector at the car barn of the Shamokin-Mount Carmel Electric railway. He is of an inventive turn of mind and has de vised a number of attachments in use ou the road. Lately he has been ex perimenting with copper, trying to make a perfect weld,and success final ly crowned his efforts. Iu his exper iments he used copper bond-wire % of an inch in diameter. When bo final ly discovered the secret lie made a chain of five links, each link welded and each weld perfect. He theu questioned many blacksmiths about the possibilitv of welding copper and in each case was told that the feat could not be done. When he produced the chain lie had made they still | doubted and were only convinced by cutting into the metal that it was j copper. Saturday he made another ; chain of live links, producing five per fect welds out of seven attempts. Sat urday evening he displayed the chains to a number of friends and on some j of the links the weld was so perfect j that the overlapping of the metal 1 could not be seen but on others it was left rough so that the junction was i plainly discernible. To reassure himself that his pro | cess of welding was genuine Mr. ; Brennan put one of the chains to a test Saturday. He hooked it to ouo of the compressed air hoists in the car : barn and to the other end he attached |an armature weighing 730 pounds. This heavy weight was lifted iu the presence of four witnesses and not a link yielded. The delighted discover er says that he now feels confident : that the chain is capable of sustaining 2500 lbs.

Mr. Geo. Miffin, Dentist, of Main street, Bloomsburg, says I procured '"Joan's Pills from Moyer Bros. Diug Store for my brother-in-law, Peter Leisetiring, living at Bear Gap.

A law passed by the present Legisla ture provides that the money due townships from liquor licenses shall, where taxpayers' associations exist, be turned over to the use of the school district. The bill does not become operative until 11*04. It will benefit the school district of townships to the extent of several thousaud dollars. At present the taxpayers association of many townships uses the license money for the repair of the roads. There has been a question as to the expediency of this on the part of the present and past town-hip school boards. Good for Children.

LICENSE FOR CANVASSERS The grocers of Danville will in the near future present a petition to Council asking for such legislation as will make it necessary for any person or persons selling at retail upon the streets any goods not of their own manufacture, to secure a license.

The following grocers have already signed the petition which is as fol lows : To the Honorable, the Chief Bur gess and the Town Council of the Borough of Danville, County of Montour and State of Pennsyl vania ; The undersigned merchants and citizens of the said borough respect fully petition your honorable body to enact, at an early date, such legisla tion as will require any and all per sons desiring to sell at retail, b sample or otherwise, or who shall solicit orders at retail, or who shall solicit orders for, sell or deliver at retail upon the streets, or by travel ing from house to house within the limits of the borough of Danville, any books, printing, foreign or domestic goods, wares, merchandise or fruits, not of their own production or manu facture, and imposing a penalty for a violation of such ordinance.

PROVISIONS OF HE ANTI-SPITTING BILL The anti-spitting bill is still in the hands of the Governor. Every man, woman and child in Pennsylvania ia interested in this bill, for it affects them all. Representative Stulh, of Philadel phia, introduced the hill nearly three months ago. In its straggling along as one of the pet projects of the Pennsyl vania Railroad Company it was so patched as to apply to all passenger railways, and to require "cuspidors or other receptacles" to he suitably located. It was provided that in cars there should be one such receptacle "lor every two passengers." The cuspidor amendments were knocked out, however, and finally in a shajH unrecognizable to Mr. Stulb himself the bill went to the Governor »s fol lows : "That it any person or person* shall expectorate or spit upon the side walk of a city, town or borough, or on the doors and passageways of pub lic buildings, or the doors of public conveyances propelled by steam, electricity or otherwise, or on the floors of theatres, railroad stations and other indoor places resorted to bv the public, he, or she or they shall be guilty of a public nuisance, and upon conviction thereof before any magis trate, justice of the peace, alderman, mayor or burgess, shall be sentenced to forfeit and pay a fine not exceeding one dollar, and in default of payment thereof, shall be committed to and imprisoned in the county jail of the proper county for a period not exceed ing five' days " Robbed The Grave.
