CHANGES ON
B. F. D. ROUTES
Rural free delivery routes Nos. 1, 3,
4 and 5 oil the recommendation of
special a#®"* Val. Schoenberger, who
recently paid us a visit, have been
amended so as to take in a greater
uuinber of patrons.
Route *No. 1. which formerly passed
iu a straight linn from Robinson'scor
uer to Davis' corner, has been amended
to pas* directly from the former point
north tast to Moser's corner, theuoe
southeast to Long's corner and south
west to Davis' comer. Four addition
al families art' accommodated on this
route.
Route No. 3, which formerly passed
from Blue's corner to Edmoudson's,
returning back to the former point and
theuce to Danville, has been changed
to take an easterly course direct trom
Blue's corner to Wintersteen's corner,
thence southeast and southwest to Dan
ville. This route takes in some lour
additional families.
Route No. 4. which formerly passed
successively from Pursel's corner to
(Jirton's corner and to Ploch's corner,
thence to Sommer's corner, has been
amended to pass from Pursel's west

the route considerably easier.
Route No. 5, which formerly served
only one street on Sidler Hill, will as
a result of the change hereafter serve
all three streets.
The changes will go into effect on
June 15th.
Summer Days at Seashore.
Humanity, as a rule, is always ben
efited by a change of air, sceuery. etc,
but for a good vacation trip nothing
is more restful and invigorating than
a few days (or more if you can spare
tha time), spent on the ocean beach.
The finest seashore resorts of the
country are along the southorn coast
of New Jersey; Atlantic City, Cape
May, Ocean City, and Sea Isle City
are the most prominent, and while
each is noted for some special qualifi
cation,they all have the benefit of the
pure, invigorating salt air while the
numerous sports and pastimes are a re
lief and improvement to the mind
nearly or quite equal to that the body
receives from the healthful surround
ings.
By a complete system of close con
nections, swift, well-equipped express
trains, etc, any of the above resorts
can be easily and quickly reached
from any point on the Philadelphia &
Keadiog Railway or its connections.
Ticket Agouts being prepared to sell
tickets and check baggage through to
these points.
During the summer in addition to
the regular service of fast express
trains leaving Chestnut Street and
South Street Ferries, Philadelphia, at
frequent,convenient intervals, and the
ooe day excursions from Philadelphia,
a series of special excursions will be
run from various points. For full in
formation as to dates,time limit, rates

New Foundry Run Its First Heat.
Hooley & Tierney's new foundry ran
it first heat on Saturday. Everything
worked successfully.
Among the work turned out were a
large number of plow points for the
Huber plow, which in other days con
stituted a large part of the product of
this foundry It was hero that the
Huber plow along with potato diggers
aud other agricultural implements
was exclusively manufactured. This
plow up to some twenty years ago was
in general use throughout this section
of the state, and a large number still
remain, which keeps up the demand
for plow points. Many inquiries from
farmers have been received by the new
firm relative to this product ot their
foundry. The heat on Saturday also
comprised a quantity of nickeling for
the line of stoves, which Hooley &
Tierney propose to manufacture.
Entertained.
The following young people were
entertained on Friday evening last at
the home of Mr. and Mr. Frank Fish
er, Castle Grove Dairy Farm: Misses

The Law As to Mail.
The authorities at Washington have
fixed a penalty of fi<X> on any one tak
ing mail out of the post office other
than their own. All postmasters are
liable to make mistakes and get the
mail in the wrong boxes, and the law
says that the people must examine
their mail before leaving the office,
aud if they have mail other than their
own, it must be returned at once.
That it is the fault of the postmaster
makes no difference. The law includes
uewspapers as well as first class mail.

FISH NATS
AND OUTLINES
This paper lias been frequently asked
whether it was lawful fro net outlines
and use fish nets. The following sec
tions touching these points are taken
I troui the State Fish and Game Laws:
Section 10, of the Aot approved May
29, 1901, says:
Outline may be legally set for carp,
eels, suckers and catfish,in waters not
inhabited hy trout, provided dead halt
only is used, and the line weighted to
the bottom of the stream. All othur
fish taken by the outline must be re
leased, with as little injury as possi
ble. The possession of game tish by
any one, operating an outline is prima
facie evidence of a violation of the
law. Penalty $'. r > and forfeiture of all
appliances used.
The Act approved on April 27, 1903,
says:
Dip nets of proscribed size may be
used for the taking of carp, eels, cat
fish and Backers, in waters of the Com
monwealth, not inhabited by trout,
daring the months of March, April,
May, October, November and Decem
ber. All game fisli taken in this man
ner must be returned,unharmed to the
waters from whence they are taken.
Seotion 2t>, of the Act of May 29,
1901., says:
I That from and after the passago of
this act, it shall bo unlawful to fish,
in any waters within this Common
wealth, with dynamite, nitro-glycer
ine, torpedoes, electricity, quicklime,
or with any kind of explosive or pois
onous substances ;or to place such sub
stances in any waters whatever,except
for engineering purposes, when writ
ten permission has beeu giveu there
fore by the proper Natioual, state,

Tiaey Reached the Limit.
Buoknell has one professor whose
patience with his classes under ad
verse circumstances has become pro
verbial. In return for this professor's
kindness aud patience, students have
taken advantage of linn. They resort
ed to all kinds of disturbing stunts to
annoy him. It was commonly suppos
ed nothing could bring even a sharp
word to the professor's lips. One morn
ing this week some students discover
ed their mistake. A bright Sophomore
making a loud whistling sound with
a blade ot grass between his fingers
was the revelator. With one hound
the professor was at his side,nod grab
bing hiin by the coat, collar he rushed
him out the room. Then he command
ed six others to leave the hall, and as
each one passed him he struck him
smartly over the head. At the last
fellow's back lie aimed and landed one
straight from the shoulder, sending
the student headlong into the group
of retreating Sophomores. College
students, after all. need primary dis
cipline.

enough when vacations are over.
TEACHERS
EIIHMAM
County Superintendent C. W. Derr
has arranged the following schedule
indicating the places and dates ot
holding teachers examinations through
out the county:
June :J8 —White Hall School House,
Anthony township.
Juue 29 Mechanicsville School
House, Cooper and Mahoning town
ship.
June 80— W'ashingtonville, Lime
stone and Derry, at Washingtonville.
July 2—Cak Grove School House,
Liberty township.
July s—Hill School House, May
berry township.
July 7—Bright's, Mausdale School,
Valley and West Hemlock townships.
The recent act ot the Legislature
fixing the minimum salary paid teach
ers at s.'!s per month goes into effect
the present year. There will be a gen
eral advance of teachers'wages through
out the state,therefore,rendered neces
sary to comply with the Act. In Mon
tour county, while not a few of the
districts are paying less than per
month there are none which are very
far below that limit and hence the new
law here will not carry with it any
very great increase of burden.
If Montour County is any criterion
the principal object of the Act, which
is to raise the standard of qualifica
tion is being well accomplished. Two
years ago an average of 60 sufficed to
secure a teachers' provisional certifi
cate. Upon entering upon his office
County Superintendent Derr at once
sought to impress upon the teachers
the importance aud the necessity of a
higher qualification for their work not
only for the sake of the good that
would accrue to the schools and the
credit they would do themselves, but
also to justify the compulsory advauce
of salary provided for by the new law.
Accordingly last year the standard
was raised fromtiO to 70. Showing how
the teachers of the county responded
to the new conditions it might be
cited that out of fifty-two applicants
there were only five that failed to
come up to the increased average of
70.
A fact in connection with the pres
ent examinations which will interest
applicants is that the standard this
year will be still further raised and
provisional certificates will be grant
ed only where an average of 75 is
attained.

Ice House Badly Wrecked.
The ice house connected with D. B.
Heddeus' restaurant sustained a cur
ious mishap during the heavy shower
Monday night which is indirectly at
tributed to the rain. The building, a
weather beaten structure on the rear
of the lot,is filled with ice to the top,
saw dust being tightly packed in every
inch of the space between the ice and
the weather boards.
The old building, it seems, lias be
come thoroughly Bat a rated with water
ami while tlie rain was jiouring down
Monday evening with a loud crash the
ice house split apart, the four sides,
still held intact at the roof, spring
ing loose at the foundation, releasing
the saw dust and exposing the ice.
How to make repairs without disturb
ing the ice crop, which he values at
titty dollars, is a problem which is
puzzling Mr. Heddens, but he expects
to accomplish the task.

A SITE FOB A
SANITARIUM
F. A. Clark, a representative of the
"Philadelphia Inquirer," was in this
city Friday to investigate a proposi
tion looking to the establishment of a
sanitarium or hospital at Hunter's
Park.
It appears that Mr. Hunter appreciat
ing the value of his park as a health
resort, in order that a deserving class
of humanity might share in its advan
tages some time ago made public the
fact that he would douate a tract of
ground sufficient for a site for a hos
pital or sanitarium if others could be
found who would interest themselves
in the establishment of such an in
stitution.
The matter it seems was called to
the attention of the "Philadelphia In
quirer" with a view of interesting
that journal in the establishment of
an institution such as proposed. The
object of Mr. Clark's visit Friday
was to investigate the matter in all its
bearings, to learn whether the prop
osition was a bona fide one, and to
see what advantages the park in ques
tion presents.
As to the adaptability of the spot for
such purposes as relate to the healing
of the sick there can be but one opin
ion. There is no spot, with a radius of
many miles where all conditions con
spire as they do here to give the place
a character for salubriousness aud
where there is such a goueral immun
ity from all derogatory influences.
The grand essential seems to be the
pine woods. But little loss important,
however, is the elevation of the spot,
as well as its surroundings, which in
sure it plenty of fresh air unvitiated
from any source. The water supply,
too, is irreproachable, being the pro
duct ot springs which bubble up at
the foot ot the long pine clad ridge
that rises in the background.

Y.M. G. A. Gets Into Japanese Army.
Early in January, before trouble be
gan between Russia and Japan, the
Young Men's Christian Association in
the latter country undertook to do for
the soldiers of the Japanese army what
the American Associations did for the
enlisted men in the Spanish-American
war. At the outbreak of hostiltities
in February application was made to
the General Staff of the Japanese
army and flio services of the Japaueso
Associations were offered. The offic
ers wore against the proposition. (July
Buddhist priests were to be allowed
togo with tlie army. The prevailing
sentiment was anti-Christian. Permis
sion was indefinitely postponed, al
though many educated and pro-Christ
ian leaders supported the application.
Only alter months of delay and through
pressure brought to bear by eminent
Japanese and by several ot the for
eign ministers in their personal ca
pacity, orders were given jiermitting
Associations to send six Japanese and
six foreign men forward with the
troops. Four of the Japanese are mem
bers ot tint National Committee of the
Associations of Japan, one ot the men
is an American Association secretary
and five are missionaries. The Evan
gelical Alliance and the Missionary
Union ot Japan co-operate with the
Association, which is an interdenom
inational action of unusual significance
on the foreign field. Simultaneously
with allowing correspondents of the
press togo to the front, the Associa
tion representatives were accorded the
same privilege. The Associations will
e-tablish tents, containing correspond
ence materials, reading matter, music
al instruments, games and such feat
ures as may be provided for social and
relief purposes at the principal camDS
in Korea as far north as the Yalu Riv
er, in which section over 100,(MM) men
are concentrated. Between 1500,000 and
400,000 men have been mobilized and
will goto the front, passing largely

A! THE REMPE
CLOCK FACTORY
The clock factory is now working
uutil late every night to meet the con
stantly increasing demand tor Mr
Kempe's wonderful self-winding clock
The factory as enlarged, equipped
with modern,automatic machinery and
with as many meu at work as can be
advantageously employed is turning
out clocks by the wholesale and is yet
unable duiiug the ordinary working
hours to keep pace with the orders as
they arrive. With the hope of catch
ing up it was decided to put the fact
ory on extra time. The hands, there
fore, are putting in two hours over
time daily.
The Heuipe clock is now beiug ship
ped into every state from Maine to
California and this in face of the fact
that the company has not yet spout
one cent for advertising It might al
so be mentioned that but two salesmen
are employed by the Kempe Manufact
uring Company so that of the enorm
ous territory taken in by the sales in
the very nature of the things only a
minute part of the trade can be called
upon. The fact seems to be that wher
ever the clock is seen or heard of a de
mand for it instantly springs up.
Each of the different models seem
one as popular as the other, witli the
exception of the office clook, next to
the largest size manufactured, which
is probably the most in demand

To Remove a Mountain.
In the course of a few weeks the D.
L. & W. K. K. will begin the gigantic
task of removing the best part of the
mountain belowEWaterJ Cap. The
mountain is not in the way of the
railroad but the flue granite makes ex
cellent ballast audit is proposed to
crush sufficient stone from the moun
tain to ballast the entire road from
Hobokeu to Biughamton.
A huge crushing plant is now being
installed. An idea of the magnitude
of the undertaking cau be realized
when It is stated that the capacity of
the plant is expected to reach oue hun
dred car loads a day.
The task of installing the crusher
abounds with engineering difficulties.
The mountain side is unusually steep
aud a track is now being built to a
distance of forty feet above the per
manent way. I'o do this a heavy re
taining wall lias to be built to secure
a fcundation for the track. The crush
er will also be installed at this height.
The machinery was maunfacturwd at
the Allis-Ohalniers plant in Scranton
and was especially made to crush the
stone found at the Delaware Water
Gap.
In the opinion of experts, the stone
is the very best for ballasting pur
poses, being that used for macadamiz
ing roads.
At the rate of one hundred car loads
a day it is evident, immediately, that
the mountain will soon disappear.
It is figured that to ballast the road
its entire length almost all the stone
in the uiouutau will be needed.

Mauy Viewed Liberty Bell
That grand old historic relic, the
Liberty Bell, the nation's emblem of
freedom, passed through Suubury be
tween a :80 and a o'clock Saturday
morning, on its way from Philadel
phia to rlie St. Louis Exposition.
It was surprising the largo number
of people who sacrificed their sleep to
await the arrival ot the bell. About
3:80 o'clock word was received by the
railroad compauy that the special train
hauling tfie bell would arrive shortly
aud soon the report was carried along
the line from railroad yard to railtoad
yard. When the train arrived the
largest crowd assembled at the Penn
sylvania statiou aud when the train
stopped tor several minutes all had a
good chance to view the bell which
was guarded by a big Philadelphia
policeman.

BREAKDOWN
ON THE FERRY
AH the ferry heavily loaded was
passing from Dauviile to the south
Hide about W o'clock Saturday morning
a breakdown occurred iu the trolley
attachment, which for a while threat
ened some trouble and resulted iu put
ting the terry out of commission until
noon.
Ferryman M. E. Yeager was iu
charge. The boat had got about two
thirds of the way across when all of a
sudden there was a jar and the flat
gave a lurch assuming such a position
as to give the current no power and
the ferry came to a stand still. The
Hat motionless in nearly mid-stream
soon attracted attention from both
shores. Realizing that something oer
ious had occurred Frank Hoss jumped
into his boat and rowed out to the
ferry to see if he could be of any as
sistance. Meanwhile there was a good
deal of excitement on the boat, which
was loaded with six teams and the us
ual number of toot people. Ry row
ing up under the cable with Mr. Koss's
boat it was discovered that the flange
of one of the wheels was worn oft,
which rendered it useless. Seeing that
further progress toward the south shore
was impossible the ferryman did the
one thing that remained, which was
to permit the Hat, which still had oni
j trolley to rely upon, to assume such a
position as would bring it back to Dan
ville.
The people of the south side there
| fore, who had so nearly reached home,
; were obliged to disembark on thin bide
and distribute themselves about town
j for an indefinite period,the worst pait
I of their plight being in the element of
uncertainty, which left the people
with teams in doubt whether or not
they wu ild ba able to get home dur
ing ti c mf, or night, either, for that
mat nr.

damage. At the Reading iron Works
he found a wheel, which was made to
