COPID RODE
THE WAVES
A very pretty rom&uce ended with
the happy wedding of Miss Jennie
Kemp of Suubury.and Walter C. Nagle
of Herndon, which oceurred at the
home of Mr and Mr- William Straus
ser, Sunbury, on Tuesday evening;
and with the uniting of these happy
hearts an interesting story comes to a
happy aud pleasing conclusion
As the story goes, during the mouth
of November, past, Miss Kemp, now
Mrs. Nagle. with two girl acquaint
ances, walked out to the third pier of
tlie Reading railway bridge, at Sun
bury. aud, with much laughter aud
amusement, each young lady consign
ed to the waters a bottle containing a
uote and their name. The ceremony
over, the young ladies returned to
their homes and soon the incident was
almost forgotten.
The scene changes and the second
chapter of the story comes from Hern
don While out rowing on the river
at that place, Walter Nagle noticed a
bottle floating in the water near hy,
and securing it. took therefrom the
following missive: "Miss Jennie
Kemp, Sunbury, Pa. Finder will
please write " Returning home,Nagle
penned an answer to the sender. An
exchange of letters followed which re
sulted in an introduction. Pleasant
visits grew more frequent and ripened
into love, culminating in the happy
nuptial event, and Cupid added
the name- of another happy couple to
his already long list of romantic con
quests.
Monster Tree Cut Down.
The large maple tree at the manse
of the Grove Presbyterian Church, a
landmark there for many years, was
cut down Saturday to make room for
some improvement:- at. the rear of the
building.
The tree was a monster, in height
seventy-four feet; across the stump
the longest diameter was five feet and
its shortest four feet.
To fell a tree of such proportions iu
a built-up portion of town is no trifl
ing job It was undertaken, however,
and successfully accomplished by John
and E mcr Mow rev. The bin tree was
thrown back over the lot toward the
rear of the church. Although some
limbs here and there were broken on
the trees standing, yet no damage of
any uote was done. In felling the tree
it was at tirst decided to saw it down,
but this was found too slow and axes
were brought into requisition anil the
big trunk was laboriously chopped
through. A crowd of people had as
sembled to see the tree fall and they
were treated to quite a spectacle as
the monster went crashing down upon
the lawn.
The tree was solid to the very core,
which is remarkable considering its
immense size as well as its age, which
is estimated as upwards of eighty years.
Pive Special Games of Ball,
The Danville Base Ball Association
advertise five special games to take
place between the present and July 4.
The first game will be between Mil
ton and Danville on Saturday, June
27th. There is a great deal ot rivalry
between Danville and Milton on base
ball matters and the game Saturday
will no doubt be close and exciting.
Ihe Cuban Giants will be with us
next week and will play two games,
one on Tuesday, June 30, and the other
on Thursday, July 2. The admission to
each of thes.- games will be 25 cents
with 10 cents extra for the grand
Htniid. The Danville Association has
not crossed bats with anything like
the Cuban Giants yet this season and
the contest in store is one to which no
small amount ot interest attaches.
On July 4th there will be two games
at the Park—one at 10 a in.and the
other at 2:30 p. m —with Danville on
one side and Springfield on the other.
Both teams are evenly matched and
the game will no doubt size up as a
suitable attraction for the Glorious
Fourth.
Eighth Annual Conference.
Tlie eighth annual Bible Conference
of the Pennsylvania Y. M O. A will
occur at Eagles Mere July 2 1(1, inclu
sive. Plans aro making to insure a

TAXES HIGHER
THIS YOAH
Some very interesting information
can he gleaned t>y looking over the re
turns made hy the assessor* at the
Court* House.
Tlie value of real aud personal es
tate subject to taxation in tlie bor
ough is set down as follows: First
Ward,sMS,s2o; Second Ward. £361,450
Third Ward, $841,605; Fourth Ward,
$340,075; total, $2,411,650.
Tlie borough tax,at 5'.. mills,figures
up to $ 13,264.07'"a- The water tax, at
i mill,is $3,617.47',;.
Last year the valuation was $2,412,-
340. The borough tax —at 4 mills—
was $9,649.36; the water tax —at 2
mills—was $ 1,824.68.
The total number of dogs assessed
in the Borough are only 177. Of these
the First Ward has 57; the Second
Ward, 43; the Third Ward, 49, and
the Fourth Ward, 28. Of the dogs as
sessed in the Fourth Waril 17 belong
to Castle Grove, leaviug but ! I for
the rust of the ward. Dogs generally
are plentiful enough in that part of
town aud that such a few of them are
on the assesor's books has caused a
great deal of good-natured comment.
The school tax, which this year re
presents I'o mill increase,w ill amount
to $15,609.64. The valuation is $2,272,-
440 The rate is 1 mill for building
and 5 mills for school purposes.
The County tax—at 3 mills—is ST,-
234.95.
The higher rate in the Borough and
School tax this year is rendered neces
sary to meet the cost of hnilding the
sewer aud of the annex with the es
tablishment of a new department at
the High School.

Welsh Brothers' Oircus.
The performances given yesterday
afternoon and evening by the corps of
artists traveling with Welsh Brothers
was all that could he desired and very
much more than was expected by the
thousands who tnrned out to see and
to hear. The performances were in
almost every instant above the aver
age in the traveling summer shows.
Welsh Brothers have always been fav
orites in our city and the high class
of entertainments given yesteiday
will add to the laurels won in prev
ious years. The quartette of Japs
was an especially pleasing feature of
the show. Last evening one of the
small Japs fell and narrowly escaped
serious injury.— Shaniokiu Daily

IRON MOULDERS'
OUTING
The Iron Moulders' Picnic held in
DeWitt's Park on Saturday was not
an all-around success. The weather
conditions were wholly unfavorable
keeping away the crowd and making
it impossible to carry out the program
ot sports.
The moulders with a number of
other emploves of the Stove Works,
some one hundred and litis' in number
and aeconipauied by the Mechanics
vilie baud, left the Stove Works at 9
a. in.and marched to the park.
By this time, however, it began to
rain slowly and the sky was dark with
clouds, so that although the band dis
coursed some of its most enlivening
music as they marched through town
the spirits of the picnickers began
to droop perceptibly. The rain con
tinuing at noon the committee held a
consultation to consider the advisabil
ity of calling oIT the whole affair. It
was decided, however, togo on with
the picnic reiving upon the abundant
shelter afforded by the paviliou and
the dining tent in ease the rain con
tinued.
The lain did continue and the after
noon was as disagreeable and dispirit
ing as it was possible for a rainy day
to IK*. The moulders and some others
with their families took dinner at the
pari;. During the afternoon quite a
number of people were driven to the
grounds in hacks, but at no time was
the crowd any thing like what was ex
pected or what was necessary to make
the affair the grand success that was
contemplated. There was dancing
during the afternoon and evening, hut
all the of her sports,including the game
of base bail, between the "Moor" and
"bench" moulders in the forenoon and
the game between the ''Old Timers"
and Mt. Carniel in the afternoon had

The picnic was a failure in so many
ways that it was decided to hold an
other outing sometime in July. The
disposal of the stove presented by the
Danville Stove aud Manufacturing
Company which was down as a feature
for Saturday evening was postponed
until tin* next picnic when it is hoped
the wont her will be fair aud nothing
interfere with the general success of
the even!

ORDINANCE AS
TO LIVE STOCK
111 certain parts ot the Borough it
seems cattle may be found grazing upon
the streets. They may be tethered,
that is confined to one spot by a rope
or chain fastened to a stake driven
into the ground; they may be accom
panied by a boy to watch tlieiu or they
may tie wholly alone. In each in
stance they cause annoyance and are
much complained about.
Many persons who have not access
to the Borough ordinance seem to he
iu doubt as to just what it- provisions
are in the matter of live stock. Sev
eral persons have applied to the Morn
ing News for information on the sub
ject. For the enlightenment of all
such we print a section or two from
the Borough Ordinance under the
head of "Live stock." Section first
reads:
Be it ordained and enacted by the
Town Council of the Borough of Dan
ville, in the County of Montour and
Statu ot Pennsylvania, in Council as
sembled, and it is hereby ordained
and enacted by t'ie authority of the
same: That it shall not he lawful for
any owner or owners of any horse or
horses, mulo or mules, goat or goats,
cattle, sheep, swine or other animal
whatsoever excepting dogs in accord
ance with the ordinance in such spec
ified behalf provided togo or he at
large within the limits of the Bor
ough of Danville. Any person or per
sons who shall violate any of the pro
visions ot this section shall forfeit
or pay a fine of three dollars for each
and every such offense.
It is true, the above section if taki n
according to its construction is to say
the least ambiguous and might leave
doubt as to whether it is lawtul for
the "owner or owners" of horses, cat
tie, goats, ito., "togo or he at large '
or the animals specified themselves."
The next section, however, cleats
up the matter, by setting forth the
duty of the High Constable HI the
premises.
If shall he the duty of th • High
Constable of the Borough of Danville
to take up and confine in some suit
able pen or enclosure any horse, mule
cattle, sheep, swine, goat or other an
im.'kl, going at large within the said
Borough of Danville and within twelve
hours after so doing to allix a notice

the Borough, stating win n and wln-re
such horse mule, cattle, sheep, swine

for such horse, mule, cattle, sleep,

three days thereafter and tender the
fees aud expenses said animal shall

of the High Constable tiftv cent- tor
taking up and confining each horse,
mule, goat, cattle, .-beep, -wine or
other animal, fifteen cents a dav lor
keeping each one and fifty cent- for
the selling of each one.
Such is the ordinance which our
Borough Fathers at their la-t meeting
decided must be enforced A- inter
prMed by them it means that all cattle
must be kept off the streets.

with indigestion and sour stomach,

To Prevent Rice Throwing.
Railroad companies intend doing all
within their power to prevent rice
throwing at weddings and on many of
the different railroads oil. tub rs will

Superintendent William B David
son of the Hartford /livision of the
Nesv Vork, New Haven and Hartford
Railroad, has decided to put an im
mediate end to the rice throwing in
the station directly under his supervi
sion, that at Hartford, Connecticut.
He mentions several instances in tin
last week where trains have been de
layed, passengers annoyed and em
ployes kept busy for hours sweeping
up flio rice thrown at bridal couples.
Station masters on many roads hive
received orders to warn wedding part
ies not to commit the rice throwing
nuisance and if the warning i- not
heeded aud the parties persist iu con
tinuing the practice they are to he
placed under arrest and examples made
of them and by this means it is hoped
will put au end to the rice throwing.

POOR PROSPECTS
FOR FRUIT
A drive throughout tin- country H
veals the fact that there is -till a
good deal of corn to plant, which i
certainly exceptional so late in June i
It is only when seasons have an ahund
ance of rain and escape carlv fro-t
--tliat corn planted later than the lir-t
of .lulie can mature l ie- corn nop
generally this year is very ha kward,
as a great deal which was placed in
the ground at tin propel time bad to
be replanted owing to the dry weatli
er, which prevented the giains from
sprouting. The ground, which was
too hard and dry foi ploughing during
the drought since tic rains -«t in h»-
much of the time been too wet for
Working, and it is this circumstance
that is responsible for tin- fact that
tin* corn is not yet alt planted
The prospects of fruit this year are
not bright. But very few people ex
peet more than half a crop of apples.
Cherries, although the season i- at ii
lieight, are conspicuous bv their
absence The farm ot M.l Willi.tills
on rural free delivery route. No. I,
however, forms a remarkable excep
tion. While ou all the neighboring
farms there are practically no cherrii s
and it would he difficult to pick a
single quart from any one tree on Mi
Williams' farm there are five trees
which are loaded with cherries, the
fruit being well developed and lus
cious.
Mr. Williams is puz/led as mu< h as
anybody to understand why In- should
have such an abundance of cherries
wbll e the crop elsewhere is a failure
Harvest time i- approaching and the
fields of wheat and rye are already
taking on their lirst golden tinge which
contrasts very beautifully with the
general hues of green that decorate
the land-cape. The wheat notwith
standing the adverse conditions will
not he so much of a failure :e predict

though short iu straw the heads seem
pretty well tilled.
