RUSSIANS HAVE
ATTACKED JAPANESE
AT TOWN OF ANJU
SEOUL, Tuesday, May 10.-1:30 p.
in.— A Russian force, estimated to
number 200 men, is attacking Auju,
about sixty miles southeast of Wijo,
Korea. The small Japanese garrison
of that place is fighting fiercely.
CHE FOO, May 1!.—5 p. m.-An
unofficial Japanese despatch lias been
received here to the effect that the
Russians have destroyed their fleet in
Port Arthur.
TOKIO, May 11.— Noon —Admiral
Togo reports that since the sixth of
May many explosions have been heard
coming from the vicinity ot Port Ar
thur but their cause has not been as
certained. The impression here i- that
the Russians, despairing of their abil
ity to defend Port Arthur, are de
stroying their ships before evacuating
the place.
ALEXIEFF ANURV
AT KUROPATKIN
PARIS, May 11.—The St. Peters
burg correspondent of the Echo de
Paris ways:
"Vice Admiral Skrydeloff and Vico
Admiral BezobrazotV have been notifi
ed of the resumption of communication
with Port Arthur, so that they may
attempt to reach that place.
"Military circles affirm that the rela
tions between Viceroy Alexieft aud
General Kuropatkin are strained, the
former wishing to share in the plan
ning of future operations.
"General Kuropatkin's telegrams to
the Ministry of War indicate irrita
tion on his part."

EMPEROR TODAY
REVIEWED TROOPS
ST. PETERSBURG, May 11.-Em
peror Nicholas, who was accompanied
by the Empress and several of the Grand
Dukes and a brilliant staff, reviewed
50,000 troops 011 the Champ de Mars
this morning. A great concourse view
ed the brilliant specta-le. As oacli
regiment marched past the Emperor
the soldiers shouted "Good health,
your Majesty." A grand charge of
Cossacks ended the review.
The Imperial party was accorded a
hearty reception by the people. Seats
on balconies overlooking the review
grounds sold for $'J5. Tiie money w ill
be devoted to the Red Cross.
Base Ball Notes.
In a glorious and easy manner Ber
wick defeated the Scranton semi-pro
fessionals at Scranton Saturday after
noon by a score of 13-7, Berwick scor
ing almost double the runs of her op
ponents. The Berwick team showed
up'in great form, handling all kinds
of hard chances, and rubbing the ball
hard at the bat. And it will be re
membered,too, that several of the Ber
wick boys did not have a bit of prac
tice this season, while Scranton has
played a number of games and in al
most every instance came out victor
ious. The Berwick boys were not up
against au easy proposition by any
means, but they played with an easi
ness and sureness that would have
done credit to professionals. Berwick
hit heavy, and better yet, bunched
their hits to make them count. In
deed they hit so hard that Griffin,
Scranton's pitcher, was forced to re
tire in the sixth and give place to an
other man.
"Doc" Davis led ringing oft with
three hits, and he also played an ex
cellent fielding same White's pitch
ing, too, was ont of the ordinary. He
was invincible at critical moments and
just when Sorauton needed hits they
coald not touch him. He pitched an
excellent game and together with the
fine team support behind him, it could
not help but be in glorious triumph for
Berwick, Berwick Enterprise.
Dr. Edward Davis, member of the
Berwick team, formerly resided iu
Danville.
American Boy Day.
At. the solicitation of the publishers
of the American Boy, of Detroit,
Mich., many copies of which are sold
in this section every mouth, the man
agers of the World's Fair at St. Louis
have set apart July 5 as American Boy
Day. Fine programs for boys will be
given iu Festival Hall on that day—
the programs being under the supervi
sion of the editor of the American
Boy.
A DANGEROUS
EXPERIMENT
Two itinerant organ grinders with
a new tangled apparatus that thumps
a base drain and cymbals as well as
emits doleful strains of Italian Melody
gave the city pest house a serenade
yesterday afternoon. Just why this
was done is beyond conjecture, unloss
some benevolent or kind-hearted phil
anthropist sent the music makers to
that obscure point to cheer the spirits
of the single patient and his keepers.
At any rate it was a most unheard ot
proceeding, a? the hospital is located
far from any other human habitation,
being completely out of sight, and it
is a cause for speculation as to how
the organ grinders even found their
wav there.
They ground out music for at least
twenty minutes, the audience consist
ing of the one smallpox convalescent,
the nurse and other attendants. All
the latter sat out on the porch in the
son, while the "musicians" turned
the crank within a few feet ot the door.
The spectacle was witnessed by a num
ber from the Reading railroad tracks,
two hundred feet to the south.
It would not be statod whether or
not the occupants of the house tossed
out any of Uncle Sam's minor coin,
but if they did it would be well for
the authorities to fumigate the outfit.
Of course no one would find fault with
those imprisoned in that desolate
building for obtaining a little musical
recreation, but it seems like a danger
ous experiment, to say the least. —

Died by His Own Hand.
Scott Turnbull, for many years a
resident of this city, committed sui
cide in Philadelphia Friday night or
Saturday morning.
He was found dead in his room at
tlie hoarding house No. 2303, Christian
street. Saturday. His throat was cut
from ear to ear. Turnbull was a widow
er and was employed asa pattern mak
er at the Wharton Switch Works, where
several other former residents of Dan
ville are working.
The deceased failed to appear for
breakfast Saturday morning and Will
iam Lane,who lives in the house,went
to call him when he made the grue
some discovery that he had committed
suicide. The dead man's friends can
assign no reason for his terrible act
and it is supposed that he was simply
weary of life's struggle.
Scott Turnbull at one time was one
of our best-known residents. He was
employed at the Montour Iron Works
for years and was foreman of the pat-
I tern shop. He later went to Reading,
but returned to Danville after a year
jor so and accepted a position as fore*
! man in the pattern shop at Curry &
I Vanuau's where he remained for some
! years.
At that time his wife was iiviug and
the family had their residence cm West
Mahoning street,near Chestnut street.
Mr. Tumbull was a skillful workman,
an intelligent well-read man, and
had many friends in Danville.
He left this city iu 1893. The news
of his terrible deed came as a shock to
his friends here who remember him as
a light-hearted fellow who always
took a cheerful view of life.
Specifications Have Arrived.
Work on the new road between this
city and Mausdale, which is to he
buiit with State aid, should soon be
nnder way. The specifications from the
State Highway Department arrived at
the Court House Saturday night, on
the strength of which hide will he in
vited immediately.
The bids, which will ha asked for
through the daily newspapers, will
have to be sent to Harrisbutg by the
bidders, where they will be opened by
the State Highway Commissioner. All
bids must lie iu by June loth.
By this it will be seen that prospects
are fair for an early completion of the
road covered by the specifications. By
July at least work should b'siu.

BIG FORTUNE FOR
MR. JOHNSON
Thomas Johnson, one time a resi- j
dont of Northumberland county and a i
miner by occupation, i-i the hoir to »
largo fortune and efforts are being!
made to locate him.
Through flu- diath ol his brother,at
Fort Worth, Texas, Johnson became
one of the beneficiaries of an estate
valued at an enormous amount, and
until he is located, providing he is
not dead, the estate cannot be settled.
This is the information that reach- j
ed the Philadelphia authorities from j
Superintendent of Police O'Neill, of
Chicago, who is conducting the search
for the missing man. The letter re- i
ceived states that Johnson was last ;
heard from in Philadelphia and this
is why the Western police think he
may he found there.
"Make a thorough search for him, j
a/ he has a lot coming to him." the
letter roads. Detective Allmoudiuger ;
communicated with every Thomas
Johnson whose name appeals in the
city directory, hut none of them are
entitled to the estate, the man who j
died in Texas not being a relative, j
The search will he continued through- ,
oat the State, it being believed that
Johnson may have moved to the coal
regions, lie at one time lived in Sha
mokin.Pottsville and also Lost Creek.
Bard Bros, 'l'eut Collapses.
On account of the heavy wind blow
ing Monday night the largo show tent
of the Bard Brother's circus which ex
hibited at Berwick,blew to the ground,
pinuuing under its heavy folds hun
dreds of frantic people. Many saw the
tent falling and succeeded in getting
under the seats before it fell. Pan
demonium reigned for a while, aud
everybody rushed to get out, stumbl
ing over each other's bodits and over
the seats. Hats, umbrellas, pocket
books, coats and many other loose art
icles were lost in the struggle. Mauy
people were injured by being hit by
the tailing poles and being trampled
upon. The lights were immediately
extinguished aud left everything in
darkness. This added to the excite
ment and many women fainted and
collapsed. The officers at the entrance
tried to ebb the wave of human beings
that poured out under the tent but to
no avail. Thieves got in *h«ir work
and many articles were stolen.

A Word to the Boys.
The street loafer is an object of con
tempt everywhere. His influence, if
lie is fortunate enough to have any, is
always in the wrong direction Nooue
has ever found out what he is good for
except that of being in everybody's
way. He is considered a common
nuisance for which no one has found
a successful remedy. No successful
business man will employ any one who
they see hauging around 011 the street
corners. The boy who can find no
thing to do but loal around the streets
would not he of very great value to
his employer. When you have nothing
else to do you should spend your time
in trying to learn something that will
be of benefit to you. Business men
are on the lookout for hoys of energy
and thrift. A position is always ready
for this kind of a boy. A street loafer
does not want to work and could not
get a position if he wanted it.
