VERY PLENTIFUL
It is a familiar sight nowadays to
see our townsmen who cherish a love
for sport in little groups of four or six
with gun on shoulder and followed by
their dogs trudging their way into the
country in quest of squirrels, quail
and other game in season.
Squirrels are found to be plentiful
and the hunter is a poor marksman in
deed, who cannot bring down enough
to make a respectable showing ill his
game bag. The little animals are
fonnd in good order also, which is
hard to account for, as hickory nuts,
acorns and chestnuts, food that squir
rels thrive on, are found to bo exceed
ingly scarce.
Quail are also quite plentiful and a
good many are shot. Pheasants, which,
have been growing scarcer and scarcer
with each succeeding year ot late are
this year run across only at very long
intervals and none so far as heard
have as yet been bagged by local hunt
ers.
Those who have been out seem not
prepared to say what the outlook is
for wild turkeys. Here and there signs
of the birds have been seen, but none
have as yet been shot.
Rabbits are very numerous. Wheth
er other game is to be found or not
the hunter is prettv sure to scare up
one or more cottontail in every field
fie enters. Ttie rabbit, however, has
little to fear from hunters who respect
the law, as he is not in season until
November Ist. When that date arrives
there will 110 doubt be great slaught
er, as every man and boy who can
handle a gun will then be out and
will be pretty sure to bag one or two
rabbits on every trip.

As To Hallowe'en.
The annual queries are being receiv
ed as to the date of Hallowe'en aud as
usual some of the applicants for in
formation are very insistent that the
ancient festival comes on the thirtieth
day of the present month, but if these
people will think just a minute they
will see that such a thing is impos
itble. All Hallows, or Hallow'en, is
the vigil of All Saints' day, which is
a fixed religious festival that falls up
on the first day of November and is
observed with special services in all
of the Catholic churches in the world
and that being the case it is impos
sible that Hallow'en slionld come on
the thirtieth of October, though for
convenience sake,if it falls npon Sun
day, it is observed on Saturday or
Monday.
Steward Straab Dead.
Steward Straub, formerly of Frosty
Valley.who was operated upon for ap
pendicitis, Thursday afternoon, died
at his home on the Pursel farm, noar
Bloomsburg Friday night at, eleven
o'clock. His condition became much
worse Friday morning and the physi
cians then considered his condition
extremely grave. He was conscious
until within an hour before he died.
The yonng man was first stricken with
the disease about a month ago, but he
recovered from that attack only to
have a second attack while fie was at
tending the Lutheran church at
Bloomsburg last Sunday evening. Up
on his arrival home his condition was
found to be so critical that it was
deemed best that fie undergo an opera

He is survived by his parents and
three brothers and three sisters: Harry

ANNIVERSARY
CELEBRATION
The committee having in charge the
matter of celebrating the muster-out
ot the members of the Twelfth regi
ment, P. V. 1., at a meeting held at
City Treasurer Taylor's office, made
further arrangements for the observ
ance of the celebration. The affair
will bo hold here on Oct. 2it, and
special rates have been secured on all
the railroads centering in Williams
port. Towns in which the different
companies of the regimout were locat
ed have taken up the matter,and very
encouraging reports have been receiv
ed by the local committee.
Word from Milton is to the effect
that between thirty and fifty former
members of ttie regiment that was on
the field during the Spanish-American
! war will be here, and at Danville a
meeting was held several days ago and
a goodly number will be present from
that town and surrounding places.
Sunbury will come up with a large
' contingent, and Lock Haven will do
its share toward making the first cele
! t)ratioll a great success. Thus far noth
ing has been heard from Lewisburg,
and it may be that the wedding of
Lieutenant Chamberlain, of Milton,to
Miss Bucher, of Lewisburg, on the
; same day of the anniversary celebra
tion will have some effect on the at
tendance from Lewisburg, but it is
understood that a number of the men
of Co. A will be sure to be on hand.—

There is already much complaint
about town caused by the frolicsome
youugsters who seem to be mostly of
the younger sort, having only a vague
idea of what is appropriate at the sea
son of Hallow e'en. They keep up an
incessant ringing of door bells, which
is just as likely to occur during the
day time as at night. They seem plenti
fully supplied with chalk and the
hieroglyphics they inscribe are seen
everywhere often disfiguring newly
painted buildings.
Many of our residents are very much
annoyed. Nevertheless it may prove a
matter very difficult to meet in a way
that will bring satisfactory results.
Children prove difficult to handle; at
the same time if there is any way to
hold them in check when they go too
far it should be done.

A VISIT TO TIIE
BATTLEFIELDS
David R. Ecktnan,Hugh Yastiucand
Harrison*'. Kase, of South Danville,
who left last Sunday one week ago for
a visit to Virginia, returned home on
the 2:21 train yesterday afternoon.
The men had an exceedingly pleasant
aud interesting trip. They are all
three veterans of the Civil War and
one of the ohjects of their trip was to
visit the battlefields of Fredericks
burg, Petersburg and Richmond
The two score years which have
elapsed have wrought a good many
changes in the vicinity of the battle
fields. Timber has been cut down and
new buildings have been erected but
as a general thing tlx* landmarks arc
easily recognized.
Mr. Ecktnan was able to locate the
spot where he had assisted to bury his
comrade, Philip Ecktnan, after the
battle of Fair Oaks or "Seven Pines"
as it was called by the Rebels, al
though the beautiful cedar tree which
marked the place at the time of the
battle has since fallen a prey to the
woodman's axe.
The icmaius of Philip Ecktnan,how
ever. no longer rest on the spot, but
along with those of Samuel H. Kurtz,
another Danville boy, soon after the
war were removed to the National
Cemetery at Fair Oaks. Mr. Eckman
states that they buried his cousin
Philip aud Samuel H. Kurtz side by
side, inscribing the name of each on a
plain board erected at the head ot the
grave.
Theuame of Philip Kckmau.it scorns,
became partially obliterated, which
after his removal led to some confus
ion aud error in cataloguing his name
in the National Cemetery. While
Samuel Kurtz's name appears plain
enough the remains which accompani
ed his are down in the catalogue as
1 ' Klermau."
All doubts which might exist as to
ttie identity were put to rest by the
corroboratory testimony of the guide of
the cemetery and an aged colored man,
both ot whom had agisted to transfer
the bodies.
The original plan of bringing the
remains of Philip Eckman to Danville
for burial may now be abandoned, lie
is sleeping in a beautiful cemetery,
surrounded by the graves of his com
rades. It is an immense city of the
dead containing 17,00;) gravos. all
Union soldiers, who fell lighting at
Fair Oaks and nearby battle fields.
He Learned a Great Truth.
It is said of John Wesley that he
otice said to Mistress Wesley: "Why
do you tell that child the same thing
over and ovei again.-" "John Wesley,
because once telling is not enough."
It is tor the same reason that you are
told again and again that Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy cures colds and
grip; that it counteracts any tendency
of these diseases to result in pneu

SSOO REWARD
FOR ASSAILANT
Shot by a foreigner whom he had
ordered off his land, ,T. M. Fairchilds
of West Berwick, has offered a reward
of fur information leading to Un
arrest and conviction of the man who
committed the act.
The shooting occurred Monday even
ing when Mr. Fairchilds and several
assistants were in the corn field shock
ing corn. Hearing a noise Mr. Fair
childs walked towards the woods and
saw two foreigners out hunting. lb
ordered them off the land. lustead of
complying the one foreigner levelled
the gun at hitn and threatened to shoot
unless he got out of there at once.
Mr. Fairchilds, who was unarmed,
started to retreat, and instantly the
marauder fired. The shot lodged in
his left ankle and as he ran another
shot rang out, but this one missed Mr.
Fairchilds. He called for his men and
they ran to his assistance and gave
chase to the foreigners who managed
to make their escape.
Mr. Fairchilds was taken to bis
home and Dr. Reagan, of Berwick,
and Dr. Gardner, of Bloomsburg,were
summoned. An investigation showed
that it would be unwise to attempt to
remove the shot, almost a hundred in
number, Monday night, as most of
them were imbedded deep iu the ankle
joint, so near had the gun been fired.
Several of the shot near the surface
were removed and then Mr. Fairchilds
was made as comfortable as possible.
On account of the possibility of blood
poisoning setting in, the wound is ser
ious but the physicians will make
every effort to see that 110 complica
tions result.
Mr. Fairchilds is determined to
make his assailant answer for his crime
and to lhat end has offered a reward
of for information that will bad
to the arrest, and conviction of the
guilty party. Incidentally it is hoped
that the lawlessness to which the
farmers near Berwick have been sub
jected will hi; stamped out. Mr. Fair
childs is one of the most prominent
residents of that section and us a re
sult of the shooting the public gen
erally is much aroused.

MACHINIST
ON BATTLESHIP
William Gask ins of this city,a second
class machinist in the United States
navy, lias been discharged owing to
disability. If'- shipped at Buffalo,
April 11, 11)01 on the Wabash. In the
two yearn and six months intervening
ho has led a strenuous life in Uncle
Sam's service and has seen many out
of the way and intert sting parts of the
world.
At Boston he was transferred from
the Waba<h to the receiving ship Ver
mont whence later he was as-signed to
the Battle ship Indiana. While 011
this vessel during two years the win
ters were spent in cruising among the
beautiful islands of the West Indies,
proceeding a- far south as Port of
Spain nn the Island of Trinidad,which
lies very close to the northern coast
of South America. On different oc
casions the In.iiaua touched not only
at Cuba, Porto Rico, Jamaica and St.
Thomas, but at many of the most im
portant islands comprised in the Lee
ward and Windward groups. The en
listed men were permitted togo ashore
at these places and were well repaid
by the many glimpses of strange life
which met their eyes. Among the
places visited were St. Lucia on the
Island of Castries, St. Johns on the
Isle of Antique and St. Pierre and
Fort de France on ill-starred Martini
que, the island 011 which Mt. Pelee is
situated and on which the great up
heaval occurred the summer before
( last. The Indiana was at St. Pierre
just two wee';s before the big moun
tain exploded and in view of the fate
which overtook tins shipping on that
|oc vision Mr. Gaskins considers that
they had a lucky escape.
Mr. Gaskins brought two armor
piercing shells from the Indiana along

To Much Night Work Demanded.
Vigorous protest is being made by
Philadelphia parents against ver
tixnig of boys and girls by excesisve
home study, but they are not the only
ones by whom this question has receiv
ed attention. The same evil exists in
a majority of the towns of the stat ,
I although Philadelphia *0 far is the
only district where an active move
ment has been inaugurated to break
the health destroying practice.
Children of the upper grades who do
not devote the greater part of their
evenings to the preparation of the next
day's lessons cannot hold up their
end. The higher the grade the great
er the dem inds for night study. It
has been found hy physicians that
many children are sickly because of
the strain brought on hy overwork
after school hours and there are many
parents who are in just such a mood
as those iu Philadelphia, where the
home study question is being threshed
out most thoroughly with the probable
result that next term the requirements
will be of a less exacting character.
One of the reasons for the growing
demands on the school children in the
line of night preparation is the intro
duction of branches not essential to
the pupils in general. The fundament
al branches aie slighted. This was
most lucidly brought out at the
Schuylkill county teachers' institute
at Pottsville tin* other day by Prof
essor Brumbaugh of the University of
Pennsylvania, who said that the mod
ern tendency was to "play with shoe
strings, tooth picks, peas, etc., which
do not strengthen the wind, to the
neglect of the principles that are at
the heart of public school education."
He stated he would not sacrifice the
common branches for all tin* polish in
the world.

like a miniature bouse was ruthlessly
torn down by the sleuths, and lo!
there was a pair of colored boys as
big and real as life. They were haul
ed from their hiding place protesting
that they were all that wore in the
car. From under a pile of canvas
came victim number three. He carri
ed a full quota of eatables including a
tin bucket full of water. Way back
iu a corner comfortably fixed between
a snake eater's box of venomous rep
tiles aud the Mont Pelee outfit were
three more.
Doubtless their fear of the snakes
caused this trio to bunch together.
The search was kopt up until the en
tire contents of the car had been
thoroughly searched and as a result
twelve of the fakirs were flimflanimed
out of their tree ride.
They were taken to the office of
Justice of the Peace J. P. Carpenter,
at Sunbnry where after the evidence
was heard they were given the alter
native of paying their fare through to
Raleigh from East Bloom or spend the
next twenty days in jail at Suubury.
Eight paid their fare whilst the other
four helpless victims of cruel circum
stances will spend the next twenty
days in the coop.
Do Good—lt Pays.
A Chicago man has observed that,
"Good deeds are better than real
estate deeds—some of the latter are
worthless. Act kindly and gently,
show sympathy aud lend a helping
hand. Y r ou cannot possibly lose by it"
Most men appreciate a kind word and
encouragement more than substantial
help. There are persons in this com
munity who might truthfully say:
"My good friend, cheer up. A few
doses of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
will rid you of your cold, and there is
no danger whatever from pneumonia
when you use that medicine. It al
ways cures. I know it for it has help
ed me out many a time." Sold by

Wentz (Jase Still a Mystery.
BRISTOL, Tenn., Oct. 21 —lt is a
week today since Edward L, Wentz,
the young millionaire, disappeared
trom Valley View mountains, Wise
county, Va., and there is yet no tid
ings of liis whereabouts and nothing
whatever to account for his strange
disappearance. His mother is now at
Big Stoue Gap, waiting. She cannot
believe that her boy has been murder
ed and is inclined to believe that he
was spirited away for ransom. While
the theory of murder has not not been
abandoned, the kidnapping theory is
foremost. Upon this idea, Joshua
Bullitt, chief counsel for the Wentz
family, states that the search is being
extended into the mountains of east
ern Kentucky, in the belief that the
supposed captors may have Wentz hid
away there. Shrewd lawyers and de
tectives have been added to the force
and every scheme of the detective's
cunning is being brought into iday
with the hope of unraveling the most
profound mystery in the history of the
mountains, that have a noted record
for crime.
The Wentz family deny the story
that the missing man disappeared as
the result of a love affair in which he
encountered parental opposition say
ing there is absolutely no truth in the
report.
The friends of young Wentz say he
was inclined to evade the society of
young women and never attended social
functions at his home.
The father of Wentz said last night
that be had been unable thus far to
form an idea as to how his son disap
peared. The father and mother have
not visited the uninviting spot where
their son was last seen.
