EMPLOYES SHARED
IN PROFITS
John H Goeser. proprietor of the
Danville Kuittiug Mills Company yes
terday distributed circulars to all his
employes announcing 'he fact that he
will divide a share of the profits of
the plant for the past six months with
them.
Mr Goeser contends that in an in
dustry of tins character the co-opera
tion of the employes with the employ
er Is necessary for success and that in
this action he can show his apprecia
tion of their valuable services and
(•t«adfant persistency since h»* has as
sumed ttie management. This is a
ptiilanthrophy that pays and not only
gives encouragement to the employes
but brings the problem of labor and
capital to a nearer solution.
The circular is headed with the old
proverb "Economy is Wealth. Learn
to save the cents; the dollars will save
themselves " Announcement is then
made of the free distribution of 10 per
cent on the profits of the Danville
Knitting Mills Company, as ascertain
ed by tbe company's auditor. The au
ditor's statement follows :
Scran ton, l J a., July 10th, 1903
John H. Goeser, Esq., Danville Knit
ting Mills Co., Danville Pa.
Dear Sir:—We have made au ex
amination of the accounts of the Dan
ville Knitting Mills Co.. for the six
mouths ending June 30th, 1903, and
certify that the amount stated upon
our balance sheet of the employes div
ideud is correct.
Yours truly,
CHARLES WEST & Co.,
Auditors.
To this Mr. Goeser, adds the eu
couragiug epistle as follows:
"We have deemed it bust to deposit
this amount to your credit in the hank
of your choice, and we do so with the
desire that you increase this small de
posit from time to time so that it pos
sible at the ending of our next six
months which will be January Ist,
1901, we should be pleased to be able
to assist you in increasing this fund
by another free distribution.
Yours truly,
DANVILLE KNITTING MILLS CO..
J. H. Goeser, Proprietor.
Mr. Goeser has had charge of the
Danville Knitting Mills but a short
time and though many obstacles were
encountered the industry was pushed
to a successful issue. That this plan
of dividing a share of the profits with
his employes will have a beneficial
effect their can be no doubt.
0. U. A. M, Excursion.
What promises to be one of the most
enjoyable excursions and picnics held
so far this season wil be that of the
Susquehanna District Association, O.
U. A. M to be held at Edge wood Park,
near Shaniokiu, next Saturday.
Montour Council, No. 107, has ar
ranged to run a special train to Sha
iiiokui, via the Reading railroad and
the round trip fare will be only #I.OO.
This low rate will surely attract a
large number of people and judging
from the program, nobody will regret
spending a day at beautiful Edge
wood. The amusements will be en
tirely free to all, including dancing
and a good concert. The following are
some of Edgewood's attractions:
Eighty acres virgin forest,large pavil
ion, music by Prof. Stroll's famous
orchestra, elegant hotel, modern cafe,

through forests, fine boating on Edge
wood Lake, club houses, hundreds of
tables for picnickers, deer park, base
ball grounds and golf links, school of
mines, roller coaster, howling alleys,
shooting galleries,pute mountain wat
er.
A number of good speakers have
been secured and a game of base ball
will be played. Many other sports
have also been arranged for the day.
The excursion train will leave the
Rending station at 8 a m and return
lug will leave Shaniokiu at 7 p. in.

HELPFUL AND INTER
ESTING SSMIONS
A very heplful and interesting ser- |
mou was delivered by the Rev. C. W.
lvirkby of New York at Christ Epis
copal church Sunday morning from
the text 'Except these bonds," which
is found in the 29th verse of the 20th
chapter of the Acts of the Apostles.
Rev. Kirkby drew a beautiful picture (
of Saint Paul's defense of his actions
before the court of King Agrippa, the
last of the Herods. The magnificence
of the representatives of Rome, their
numbers and their retinue were con
trasted with the loneliness of the Dis
ciple. And yet before this assemblage
Saint Paul stretches forth his hand and
makes that wonderful defense which
was contained in the lesson from the
New Testament.
Rev. Kirkby said that the people of
this country look upon themselves as
free, and would resent any denial,and
yet there is not a free person in the
land. There may have been a time
when we were free when we were
little children. But there came the
first sin, aud then another, until now
we are bound down by the heaviest
chains of our evil habits. Speaking
less than the absolute truth, speaking
unkindly of others are chains that
bold us down and make us slaves, and
separate us from our God. But Saint
Paul was free and we may be free as
well God will give us the strength
to break these chains if we will only
ask him; and he will also give us the
light to tread the paths in which ho
would have us to walk.
The Rev. J. E. Hutchison, pastor
elect, who comes to this city from
Irwin, Pa., preached to large con
gregations both morning and evening
at the Mahoning Presbyterian church
yesterday. Rev. Hutchison, who will
soon take charge of Mahoning church
is an eloquent speaker and combines a
common sense argument with a rich
ness of language.
2 The subject Jot Sunday morning's
discourse was "Compensations" with
the text from Job '2B: 25:"He Makoth
a Weight for the Winds." The sermon
covered four points, the first of which
was"The Solution of the Inexpli
cable. On this jKiint Rev. Hutchison
said : How often have you been disap
pointed and been unable to discover
any satisfactory reason for your disap
pointment? How often have you had
aggravating trials for which you have
never yet had a complete explanation.
There, there are the manifest inequal
ities in human conditions in this world
which we are always at a loss to ex
plain." He cited many instances of in
explicable things that are seen iu
every community. The apparent suc
cess of the ungodly ; the failure of the
honest and the faithful The wealth
of the wicked aud the poverty of the
righteous. To this Rev. Hutchinson
says"The solution of all these vexed
problems therefore must be and is
with God. The compensations must
be with God and tbe evening up of in
equalities if not in this world then in
the next. The second point, "The
Weighted Winds ot History" was a
review of those nations in the past
who have in their way of living im
agined they were supreme and could
not realize that God was all powerful
until He had curbed their wrath. He
showed here plainly that "God has
weighted the winds of history and
placed limits upon the wrath of man. "
In the third point "The Weighted
Winds of Passion" ho put much stress
on the moral law and the law of na
ture. For each sin committed iu de
fiance of these laws mankind must
suffer, showing that even the
wickedness of humanity is limited, so
heavy is the weight of the winds of
passion. In the last point "The
Weighted Winds of Circumstances"
Rev. Hutchison said "We may not al
ways be able to see the Lord's com
pensations , or comprehend tliem, but
that God is making all things work to
gether for good for his own we cannot
doubt.''
Lack of space does not permit a full
review of the sermon. It was a mast
erly effort; one that made a deep im
pression on the largo congregation pres
ent.

STRANGER IS A
DURYEA CITIZEN
The Danville police officers are re
joicing over the fact 111:*t the man ar
rested as a suspect in an important
murder case in Tioga county,and who
proves to be a man who wandered
away from his home with the idea
that ho was being pursued, has been
safely returned to his people.
Wednesday morning the individual
in question walked into the village of
Washiugtonvilie and entered the store
of Cottier & Diehl. His appearance
was not prepossessing to say 'he least,
and he plainly showed the effects of
his life in the woods. He inquired
the nearest way to Danville, and start
ed out to walk to this city. Mr. Cot
ner one ot the proprietors of the store,
had looked the stranger over and
noticed that he answered to the de
scription of Myers, the murder sus
pect..
Mr. Diehl had heard of the man's
suspicious ac tions in the woods and
telephoned to Chief of Police Mtiiee
moyer, to head him oil. Mr. Diehl
then followed his man to this city.
The suspect was arrested by Chief
Miiiceniover and Officer Voris He
made some resistance and refused al
together to enter tht! lock-up. The
officers were compelled to use force to
lock liiui up. The chief then tele
phoned a description of the prisoner
to Sheriff Van Duseu, at Woll-boro,
which corresponded so closely \sith
that of Myers that the sheriff sent
Murray Maize, a farmer of Liberty
township, Tioga county, to this city
to identity the prisoner if possible,
Maize had once employed Myers on
his farm.
After seeing and talking Willi the
suspect at the jail, Mr. Maize decided
that he was not Myers, although there
was a strong resemblance. Mr. Maize
returned home Saturday morning. The
officers searched the prisoner and found
a letter written by an aunt living at
Snvderville, Pa , in which she men
tions some trouble ho had gotten into,
expresses her sorrow over the occur
rence, and says she understands that
it would take #IOO to settle the matter.
The prisoner gave his II une as Brown
and stated that he had been working
at Duryea, Luzerne county.
The officers communicated with
Chief of Police Cosgrove of Duryea
who came to this city on the 12:14 D
L. &W. train on Saturday. He at
once identified the man as Edward
Brown, a respected citizen of Duryea,
who six weeks ago drew S2OO from the
Pittstou hank and disappeared. Since
that time the poor fellow has been
hiding in the woods. He imagined
that some one was pursuing him and
it was his reticence, combined with a
hard appearance, due to his si\ weeks
hardship, and a remarkable resembl
ance to the Tioga county murderer
that created the belief that lie really
was a fugitive from justice.
Chief Cosgrove explained that Mr.
Brown was a first class fireman in a
Duryea coal mine, and was a respect
ed citizen. 11 is relatives were grief
stricken and have done everything to
gain information as to his where
abouts. Chief Cosgrove accompanied
by Brown left on the '2:11 train for
Duryea on Saturday.

Railroad Tralfic Heavy at Present.
As the summer advances and travel
grows heavier railroadi am more than
ever encumbered by the scarcity of
passenger coaches, hut the local offi
cials always meet an emergency in a
way that commends praise. The Phila
delphia & Reading, D. L, & W. and
Pennsylvania R. li. have no more
coaches than they require for daily
service, and when a line of excursions
are run on a particular day some
trains are shortened, and in consequ
cnce the cars are crowded.
An official said Saturday: "With
all the available rolling stock in ser
vice the railroads aie experiencing
great difficulty in supplying the de
mand for passenger coaches, nearly
all of the regular trains neing iincoin
fortahly crowded.
"This,"he continued, "has been a
great year, a prosperous one in the
passenger service, and during the next
two months there will he more people
traveling, but be font many days there
will he additional passenger cars in
service.''

though some of tin nights during the
encampment made the soldiers shiver
in their hunks due In the cold, the
weather taken as a whole was ideal
for the regular routine ot cam]) life,
especially the morning and afternoon
drills and the evening dress parades.

The battle was arranged in order to
give the regular army battery practice.
A clearing on t lie side of I lie mountain
in which forty-eight figures of men
were set up as targets at which the
battery fired full charged shells. The
spectacle was witnessed by Governor
Peiinypaeker.
While there have been some hard
work, discomfort and unpleasant feat
ures in the outing, the change of air,
food and surroundings, the coming to
gether and new friendship* will doubt
less make the occasion cue to be re
membered with pleasure by the ma
jority of the soldier boys, yet they
were pleased Saturday to greet their
home folks, eat a warm supper, and
snuggle down in their comfortable
beds.
The annual encampment <s a neces
sary part of the drill and work ot the
Guard, and while the armory drill is
most essential throughout the ten
months of the year, the regimental,
brigade and division formations and
the camp life and work of actual ser
vice is just as essential. In case ot
emergency our state may feel assured
that we have an effective force to pro
tect our homes and our honor, and re
pel invasion. The fact is 100 often
forgotten that the National Guaid is
a training school for soldiers. While
costing much le>s the Guard almost it
not quite takes the place of the stand
ing army of oilier countries. Except
in actual warfare certain branches of
tlioe armies are little more than train
ing schools for recruits, while sill of
them have a large reserve. The Guard
does the same thing and every man
who serves bis time in it becomes a
member of the reserve when he leaves.
While the majority of the Guard are
young men, their enthusiasm is al
ways apparent, and while many per
sons are prone to look upon them as
" Sunday soldiers" because they have
never "smelled powder," it must be
remembered that this fact does not
detract from their efficiency.
A Soldier's Narrow Escape.
Horace Snyder of this city, private
of Company K, Pith Regiment, came
near losing bis lite while passing
through Sunbury en route for Danville
on Saturday afternoon.
Snyder got off the troop car which
had stopped in the Sunbury yard some
distance below the depot. When the
train started lie attempted to board
the box car containing the company's
baggage. He made the step safe enough
but before lie had time to get fully on
the car lie was struck by a pole which
stood very close to the track, and \\as
thrown. He fell with great force on
the ties and was rolled around by the
moving tiain several times. Form
nately he did not get under the wheels
and escaped with his life.
He was picked up in a semi-conscious
condition and carried to the otliee
of Dr. Graham, llis scalp was found
to be badly lacerated, needing the in
sertion ot fourteen stitches. Slight
bruises about the arms and a hard
shaking up were also results ol theac

DANVILLE'S
NEW INDUSTRY
The vitrified brick project which has
been on foot for some time past has at
last been consummated and Danville
will soon have an industry that will
give employment to a large number of
IIICII.
Purcell A. Company of Philadelphia,
the largest manufacturers and dialers
in tin- grade of brick in the United
States, will build and equip a plant
costing $100,(MK). Mr Purcell, the
senior member of Hie firm was iu Illi
cit \- on Saturday and made all neces
-ary arrangements to proceed with Hie
work. Part payment was made on the
property and the deal was finally clos
ed.
When completed the Danville plant
will he larger and more modern than
any of (lie various plants now operat
ed by I his concern. At present, tlieii
main factory is in Kentucky. Two
Bricc Funnel Kilns will be installed
and a Down Draujjht Continuous Kiln
will also be used. The latter kiln will
be an innovation in thi- country. Il
is a German patent and is controlled
solely by Purcell A- Co.
The plant here will be under the
management of John Keim whose ex
perieiice in this line of work will he
of great value. W. J. Keim, who at
present is superintending the work at
his father's various yards about town,
will spend three months at the Ken
tucky plant, to fully acquaint himself
with the new work. The machinery
to be instilled here will be built by
the titin of Purcell &■ Co.
The Danville property, which is
located near the Fair Grounds, con
tains nine acres of the best brick mak
ing slial" and those familiar with the
brick business say that the raw mater
ial will not give out in a life time.
People Who
Can't Sleep.
Many people goto bed not to sleep
but to think —to tumble and toss —to
get up, walk about until tired Nature
gives way and a few tit ful hours of
sleep are obtained just before dawn
asleep that does not rest —a sleep
from which one wakes weary and
fired, wholly unfitted to take up the
daily routine ol household, shop or
otliee duties. That this condition goes
on uucared for is almost criminal,
when the well-known, time-tried and
tested poweis of Dr. A. W. Chase's
Nerve Pills to give re.-tful sleep have
been so fully proven in such cases.
Mr 11. <Stoes of 217 IS. Mahoning
St., Danville, Pa , says:— "1 had

sisten nervous stomach trouble and

Was Meyers Eaten Up?
The Corning Journal, which first
printed the. improbable story that a
wild man captured near Danville was
Murderer Myers, presented another
lively story on Saturday in a dispatch
from Port Jervis, N. Y. It is as fol
lows :
Geo. Williams while walking on
Bald Hill, near Rowlands, Pike coun
ty, Pa., yesterday, found the arm and
hand of a human being, attached to
which were shreds of flesh and liga
ment- holding the joints. A portion
of the hones looked as though they had
been gnawed by wild beasts. No one
is missing in that section and search
ing parties are scouring the woods for
more traces of the body. Many be
lieve the arm and hand belonged to
Edward Troinkle, alias Myers, the
murderer of Mrs. George Payne, of
Trowbridge, Tioga county, Pa., on
February 23, who was located in Brill's
Swamp,near Honesdale, Pa ,iu March
last, and who, it was assorted, was
shot by a young man named Harmati,
of Honesdale.
Rowlands is about 15 niiles'froni the
swamp, where Troinkle was last seen,
and it is believed ho fled down the
Honesdale branch of the Frio railroad
to Rowlands, where he died some
where in the woods near where the
arm and hand were found, from gun
shot wounds received at the bauds ot
young'Haruian.

again and again, and for six long
years I have suffered more misery and
agony than 1 can tell, it was worse
than death. My husband spent hun
dreds of dollars for physicians' pre
scriptions and tioatmeiit without
avail. Finally he moved to Bosque
county, our present home, and one
day I happened to see an advertise
ment of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy with a testi
monial of a man who had been cured
by it. The case was so similar to mv
now that 1 concluded to try the re
medy. The result was wonderful. 1

having suffered so long, but that one
bottle of medicine, costing but a few
cents, cured me.' For sale by Panics

The Y. M. 0. A. in South Africa.
That the work of the Young Men's
Christian Association is thoroughly
appreciated in all parts of the world,
the following item proves beyond a
doubt:
Recent advices from South Africa
indicate a great forward movement by
the Young Men s Christian Associa
tions of that country. It is reported
that no less than six buildings, cost
ing £.">00,000, will bo erected for tlese
a-sociations in the near future At
Cape Town the Association building
has been doubled in size at a cost of
.S7S,(MM). There is a membership of
l,.")O0 young men here,a rapid increase
from -KM) having been made. This As
sociation is the headquarters for thou
sands of young men in the course ot
the year, who come to this city, the
gateway to South Africa. Young men
coming to the diamond fields are ac
commodated by the Kimberly Branch,
which is to have larger quarteis. The
frontier point of Fast London, Cape
Colony, established an Association a
few years ago, and is doing valuable
service to the young men coming there
from Fngland. The Mayor of Poi t
Elizabeth, together with the clergy, is
moving for the establishment of an
Association in that town. The Durban
Association is about to expend $85,000
for the erection of a building, tow aids
which the merchants have given s''><•,-

ed. Pieteriuaritzsburg has a scheme
involving an outlay of $-10, (MM) for a
three-story building for the city centre
of the "Garden Colony." In the
Transvaal and Johannesburg, plans
involving an expenditure of $250, (MHi
for buildings and improvements, are
launched. The Johanucshaig Associa
tion admitted lf>7 members in one
month. These buildings will provide
all that a young man needs in the way
of home and club privileges, in these
Associations, some of the leading men
of South Africa, including the former
governor-general, are engaged with
enthusiasm.
Some ministers of the Dutch Re
formed Church went into voluntary
exile in the South African prison
camps in order to bold services among
the prisoners. As a result of their
services,over ITO men among them en

men have now entered training schools
and theological seminaries in South
