S. of A and P O. of A. organiza tions of Montour, Columbia and Luz erne counties, held at Shawnee Park, uear Hlootnsburg, Saturday, there was perfected the organization of the Pat riotic Union of Montour, Columbia and Luzerne counties. The object of the organization is "The perpetuation of our free institu tions through the cultivation of the spirit of fraternity by the co-opera tion of the P. O. S. of A., the P. O. of A., the P. O. T. A., United Am erican Mechanics and their friends and aympathizers outside of the order." Any person, male or female, child or adult, who believes in the national free institutions and who is loyal to God, our common country aud our common schools may become a mem ber. It is contemplated to call a meeting of all these fraternities and their fami lies ami friends of the members to jjeet annually at Shawnee Park or at each a place an from time to time may be designated. These people are to come prepared for a picnic and a splendid fraternal anil sociable time. Thiough the assemblage of people hav ing this one common aim and otject much good may be accomplished and the work of the nation's free institu tions facilitated and their foundations more firmly laid. The following named officers were elected : President, Prof. A. U. Lesh er, of Berwick ; vice president, A. H. Rittenhouse; treasurer, A. H Kline, of Oatawissa; Secretary, Mrs. Li/.zie Hess, of Berwick. The picuic was very largely attend ed, nearly all the organizations in the district being represented, with Ber wick having the largest representa tion. Speechmaking and a general good time marked the day. Hot Weather Advice. Hot weather advice is seasonable, and bears frequent repetition. Those people who have their vacation,ample yard room, aud can have a cool house, and electric fans in office and means and opportunity for lowering the temperature or lolling at ease have 110 reason to complain of the highest temperature markings, bnt there are thousands who must toil in close quartera where the air cannot he changed, where no breeze can pene trate, where the direct rays of the sun work their helpful influence, in small ■hops, stuffy hot mills and factories. These people, unfortunately situ ated through circumstances, due to their vocation, etc., should try to he cheerful and whenever the heat thought intrudes itself consider that hot as it is it might he much worse. Sudden dosing of the stomach with iced drinks is dangerous, especially if there is no food in it. It is more im portant that this important organ be kept supplied with solids than with so-called cooling liquids. A box of crackers kept close at hand for an oc casional nibble is better than a pitch er of ice water. This keeps the stom ach in good order by giving it normal work to do aud prevents a congestion of thd blood in the brain. The diges tive organs are stimulated rather than ohilled. Hearty eating is not so dangerous iu hot weather as injudicious eating. It is the kind rather thau the quantity of food that tells in such a season. Under-rijw fruit is always bad aud especially so with thu system under its usual tone. Ice cream is of questionable wisdom Only when it is above suspicion as to purity aud freshness is it safe. Drug store intemperance is quite as bad in some respects in hot weather as saloon intemperance,and the drinking of soda water may easily be carried to a dan gerous excess. Nominating Committee. Mr. H. B. Schultz, president of the Y. M. O. A., has appointed W. V. Oglesby, W. E. Gosh and Beverly Musselmau, a committee to nominate persons for election to the Board of Directors of the Danville Association. This committee will meet Thursday evening, July 21st. Active members of the Association may hand to the General Secretary, or to members of the nominating committee, over their own signatures,by noon Thursday,any name of any active member for nomi nation. No person shall lie eligil In for election as a Director unless his name shall have been submitted to or nominated by the nominating com mittee. Night Force. A number of oar coal dealers are us ing a force for tin; unloading of coat cars at South Danville. This be oaiue'a necessity owing to the long wait at the ferry landings (luring the day. Dealers Hay it is almost impos sible to empty the earn (luring the day iu time to save demurrage HO a night force waa put on. During the night hut few teams cross the river and the coal men have the boat at their disposal at, all times. No tedious waits are encountered and in this hot weather this system is much easier on hoth man and boast. Anyhow the uational campaign starts off red hot. FLANS FOR THE WINTER'S WORK Plans are being completed by the officials aud directors of the Y. M. A. to make the coming winter season the most successful along all lines of any since the institution has been established. During the last few years various alterations and repairs have been made from time to time, and every effort put forth to keep in line with the necessities of a rapidly growing mem bership. New boilers were installed, the bathing facilities enlarged various forms of sports arranged and the building itself putin the best possible shape. (.This year four new lockers were Histulled and a number of new pieces added to the gymnasium. In fact everything is in first class condition. The Danville Y M. 0. A. building is one of the finest in the State and is so regarded by visitors from out of town whoso criticism on the magnificent, building and excellent equipment is at alt times most flattering. It is the purpose of the directors the coming season to do some necessary painting about the building, to have the bath rooms enameled and to make everything up to date, clean and neat. The gymnasium classes should appeal to men and boys of all ages. These classes will be so arranged tl.af they will be helpful to everyone partici pating. In the amusement line much activity is being displayed and many delight ful evenings can be spent at the Y M. C. A. the coming winter. Every young man in Danvillo should become a member of the Y. M C. A. It is helpful physically,socially and moral ly. It was established for the men of Danville aud they should support it. Shooting Accident Near Northumberland. A shooting accident occurred at Molly Bullion Springs,near Northum berland, on Sunday eveuing, in which Robert Maurer, of Northumberland, had a narrow escape from the loss of his eyes and pronalily death. The oc currence was an accident but shows tho danger in the handling of fire arms by young boys. There are two camp ing parties at the springs—one of young boys about 14 to Hi year., of age and auother crowd of young men from Northumberland. Their tents are pitched within a short distance to one another and was a pleasant ."ompanion ship in the woods. About six o'clock Sunday evening the tents of the young men were deserted as they had scat tered about through the woods, some going to Northumberland. Young Maurer, of the yonngor camp ers, entered the sleeping tent of camp No. 1, to see the Sunday papers and in emerging from the tent was struck in the face by a bullet coming in tho direction of tho tuess tent of camp No. I. It was learned that another of the young campers No. 2 hail entered the mess tent and in rummaging through one of the boxes in the bottom found a revolver and in some unexplained manner it was shot off and the bullet whizzed through the tent door strik ing young Maurer on the cheekbone, passed through the nose, coining out grazing the cheekbone on the left, side of the face. The young men hast ened to tho camp and found the young lad lying on the ground,and the blood flowing from the wound. He was tak en to Northumberland as quickly as possible to the office of Dr. .1 A. El liott who advised an immediate re moval to the Mary M. Packer hospit al, as an operation was necessary. The trip was made as hurriedly as possi ble, and at the hospital he received medical attendance at once, and Mon day morning he was reported as pa-s iug a comfortable night. No serious results are apprehended, but great sympathy is expressed for the boy as he anticipated enjoying a well earned vacation. He is the youngest son of Mrs. B. F. Maurer and a great com fort to his widowed mother. Cherry Pits in Intestines. That a child eighteen months old ! could swallow 343 cherry pits aud live after their removal principally by surgical means after they had closed the passages in the intestines, would , be deemed impossible were not such I the experience of the child of Ohediah Michael, of Summer Hill. Recent mention was made iu the News of the t child when it was stated that Dr. Reagan of Berwick, had removed 200 pits. This number was thought 1111- | possible but soon after Dr. Reagan , had another call to relieve the child aud removed by surgical means and mediciue 143 more which makes the total 343. The pits, which are now in the possession of Dr. Reagan, almost fill a large olive bottle. Some of the pits are extra large ones which makes the case the more remarkable The child is doing well and Dr. Reagan stated that if nothing unfore seen sets in the child will recover. The case is one certainly without a parallel in this section and no doubt also within a much wider scope. Brutally Tortured. A case came to light that for persist ent aud unmerciful torture has per haps never been equaled. Joe (iolobick of Colusa, Calif, writes: "For 15 years I endured insutleiable paiu from Rheumatism and nothing relieved me though I tried everything known. I came across Electric Bitters and it's the greatest medicine oil eaith for that trouble.

ABOVE WATER Tlin Standard Electric Light Com pany completed the work of removing tho F«»iiHOC tiriti wires from the bridge piers to ttie poles, recently erected on botli sides of the river, on Saturday afternoon. Lineman Edward Rockefeller was assigned to the task and he complet ed the work easily and in a remark ably short time. The mesenger wire was put up on Friday afternoon and all was in readiness Saturday morning tor Mr. liockefellerto begin work. Ho climbed the pole ou the Danville side at 7 :15 a. m. and,worked his way slowly across the river. The wire was placed in a boat rowed by Daniel Ross and taken up as needed. The current wire was fastened to the messenger wire by means of braces, there beiug ahout four inches of space between them. The trip to South Danville was made without a hitch. As two wires are necessary to complete the circuit, Lineman Kockafeller was compelled to make a return trip. At the noon hour be had reached the third pier. At this point he was lowerod with a block and tackle and rowed to shore. He was hoisted to his position again at one o'clock aiid by four had completed the job. It was a task fraught with a great element of danger and the easy man ner in which Mr. Kockafeller handled the work brought forth much favor able comment from the many specta tors who lined the bank watching the proceedings during the day. The work as it now stands is most substantial and the change was made in so short a time that the Sooth Dan ville residents were without light but one night. Meat Dealers are Notified. Meat dealers in this section have received tlie following letter sent out by the newly formed Meat Dealers' Association of Pennsylvania: "It is to our great advantage, as well as to the advantage of the pub lic, that we should use modern pre servatives in order that we may be able to keep our meats in the sweet est, cleanest and freshest condition. Every person knows that the preser vatives which we have been using are perfectly harmless and are even of the greatest benefit to all, not only to the meat dealers,but to the general pablic as well. Modern preservatives do not restore spoiled meat, but simply pre vent fresh meat from spoiling. As us ed and in the quantity used they are as harmless as salt,and they have boen in use for the past quarter of a cen tury,anil are today used in every state and city in the country, aud, in fact, in every part of tin* civilized world. In many states propor laws have beeu passed approving and regulating the use of them. "Let us league together every meat dealer in the state of Pennsylvania and seek the passage of proper laws to permit and regulate the use of such harmless preservatives as are absolute ly indispensable in onr business, aud which are usod by our fellowtrailes nien 111 other states of this country, and,ill fact, in every part of the globe. There arc over 5,000 meat dealers iu Pennsylvania If we should need fuuds at any time you cm rtalily see that a dollar or two from eanh would supplv all that would lie needed. "This is no catch penny Rcheme.but an honest, earnest effort tor the bene fit of the meat men of Pennsylvania and the public in general. "Do not send any money, as none is needed yet. Your moral support is sufficient at present All members will he advised from tune to time of the progress of the league." It is the intention of the association to test the legality of the law prevent ing the use of preservatives in meat. It is understood that the Western packers are behind the movement. A Very Worthy Charity. There is no movement in which the charitably disposed people of the coun try can engage which does batter work, is more appreciated by the re cipients or produces more lasting re sults for good than the work of giviug the poor children from the crowded cities two weeks unalloyed pleasure in the country. For years this move ment has been in progress, and as the benefits arising from it are becoming apparent it is growing in popularity, and every summer thousands of these pior little waifs are given their first glimpse of country aud pure home life.

J c A TRESTLE BRIDGE IT THIN DILLS Work on the Danville ami Rlooins bnrg trolley line is beiug pushed aloug rapidly and with the exception of u delay in the shipment of rails no time has beeu lost since the work began. The road has been graded within three miles of Hloomsburg and the track laid to a distance of one mile above Grovauia. The foundation for the power house at Grovauia is about completed and the bricklayers will begin work some time during the present week. The abutments for the bridge at Fishing Greek have also been started and will be pushed to completion as rapidly as possible. Twenty men are employed at this work alone. It has beeu decided to huild a trestle bridge at the twiu hills, a mile and a half above Grovauia. The grade at this point is very heavy and with a trestle bridging the hills, much bet ter time cau be made. The trestle work will be twenty-one feet in height and between 150 and 200 feet in length. This work will be started in a few days. Work on Mill street, this city, will be began as soon as possible after the paviug question is definitely settled. When ouoe started it will take but a tew days to complete the line from Bloom street to the Hiver bridge. No exact date can as yet be named as to when the road will be in run ning order but from the present out look the officers say that cars will be run between this city aud Bloomsburg sometime between the first and fif teenth of September. TIME IS THE TEST. The Testlmouy of Danville People Stands the Test. The test of time is what tells the tale. The public soon find out when misrepresentations are made, and merits aloue will stand the test of time. Danville people appreciate merit, and many months ago local citizens publicly endorsed Doan's Kid ney Pills; they do so still. Would a citizen make the statement which fol lows unless couvinced that the article was just as represented? A cure that lasts is the kind that every sufferer from kiduey ills is looking for. David B. Jones, printer, of 401 Church St., says:"l think very high ly of Doan's Kiduey Pills. They cur ed me of an enervating backache and lameness across the small ot my back. This trouble commenced with sharp shooting twinges just over my hips and later I had considerable pain all over my back even extending to the top of the head, 111 fact, 1 never knew where the pain would strike me next. 1 saw Doau's Kidney Pills highly re commended and procured a box at a drug store. It only required a short time to show that they were helping me, aud after taking the treatment for a time the trouble left me entirely and i iiave had no return of it for years.

At the Convention of the Diocese of Ceutral Pennsylvania held in SVill iamsport last month the Bishop and the convention formally consented to a division of the present diocese in ac cordance with the requirements of the constitution, but it will take a year before the division is completed. To be complete the action of the con vention dividing the diocese must he ratified by the General Convention, which meets this year In Boston in October. The constitution requigs that "aouseut shall not be given by the General Convention until it ha? satisfactory assurance of a suitable provision for the support of the Epis copate iu the contemplated diocese." It is geuerally conooded that the Gen eral Convention will consent to the division. The old diocese is to consist of the counties of Bradford, Susquehanna, Wayne, Wyoming, Lackawanna, Luz erne, Mouroe, Pike, Carbon, Schuyl kill, Lehigh, Northampton, Lebanon aud Berks. The new diocese includes the coun ties of Potter, Tioga, Clinton, Lycom ing, Sullivan, Centre, Montour,North umberland, Miffliu, Snyder, Juniata, Perry, Cumberland, Dauphin, Bed ford, Fulton, Franklin, Adams, York aud Lancaster. Within the new diocese are the cities of Altoona, Wellsboro, Bellelonte, Williamsport, Shamokiu, Bloomsburg, Danville, Harrisburg, Lancaster, Col umbia and York. The eastern bound ary of the uew diocese will follow the western and southern boundaries of Bradford county, will continue south ward aloug the eastern boundaries of Sullivan and Columbia counties, the western boundary of Schuylkill coun ty, the eastern bouudary of Dauphin, the southern bouudary of Lebanon and the southwestern boundary of Berks. After the General Convention lias consented it will be in order for the new diocese to call a convention. This iuitial convention of a new diocens is commonly called the Primary Conven tion. The Primary Convention, in ca.se there shall be one, is invited to meet in Bt. James' church, Lancaster. No time has been fixed for the meet ing. At this convention a name will he choseti for the new diocese. It. is possible that the new diocese will re tain the old name. The present Bishop has the right to choose which of the dioceses he will administer. In case he chooses the new diooese the ques tion as to who the Hishop shall he will he settled.

( LETTER FROM JOHN L EVANS Register and Recorder W. L. Sidler is iii reoeipt of a very interesting let ter from our townsman, John L. Evans who is sojourning at Albuquerque, N. M , which the Register and Recorder has kindly handed over for publica tion. lu the letter Mr. Evaus describes a trip through Golorado aud Wyoming, made for the purpose of investigating the claims ot the Consolidated Gold, Copper aud Goal Company, whose al leged discoveries of coal to say uoth ing of other minerals have caused much surprise in the East. The coal deposits are embraced iu an enormous tract of virgin land located at North Park, Larimer County, Colorado. The El Rev Gold and Copper mines are at Grand Encampment, or upper Platte district, Wyoming. Mr. Evans says: "I have just returned from a trip through Colorado aud Wyoming. What I have seen would fill a volume, as we staged 285 miles through a wild and woolly country. lam highly pleased with my trip and it did me a great deal of good, as I returned home feel ing much better than when I started. I was with quite a congenial crowd. 1 met the President, the Vice Presi dent and the Secretary of the Consoli dated Gold and Copper Company. They are flue fellows. Iu a single let ter it would be impossible to dtscribe what I saw and learned. It is true, there was much about the miues that I could not understand,but some things wore plain enough. I saw coal. which was simply wouderful. I saw a vein which is 65 feet thick and lies but a few inches under the sur face. It is coal of the finest quality, being oleau and free from dirt or Blate. It can be rubbed over a white shirt aud will leave no mark. It burns very freely and produces no smoke. I brought several large speoimens along home with me aud find that it barns excellently. We had several ooal men and mining experts with us who re gard it as a wonderful deposit of coal. We also visited the gold and oopper mines The gold mines are at Grand Encampment aud the copper mines at Pearle, thirty miles away. At Pearle a smelter is beiug built at present aud pending its completion the mines are shut down. Iu a short time, I have no doubt, all the mines will be kept busy supplying ores to the smelter. I was all through aud around the El Rey Gold min<v, which belongs to the Consolidated Gold, Copper and Ooal Company. I myself dug some quartz rook out of the mine, in whioh you oould see the particles of gold. I saw quantities of it panued,which produc ed considerable gold. Specimens which I dug from the mines I was told would assay from to S7O per tou. It was a novel experience to me to stand wheie within a few fed of the surfaoe was gold bearing rock. El Rey is re garded as a great gold mine. Yours truly JOHN L. EVANS. Piles Upon Top of Piles. Piles upon top of piles of people have he Piles, aud DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve cures them.

Oaptaiu Guarliart's commission ex pires on November 4th next and he was especially desirous that Compauy K should make a good showing this year. The result, however, was bet ter thau expected,as the company pre ceding last inspection labored under a bad handicap owing to the floods, which rendered the Armory unfit for drilling and by taking away the bridges made it impossible tor the members to get together for a mouth or more. Daring five years past Compauy F has been showing up very well. For three years the oompany stood second and during the last two years third. This is gratifying in view of the fact that iu 1899 it was a question wheth er Company F would be able to hold its place In the organization owing to the fact that along with some others iu the regiment it had falleu below the standard.

Demaiu has just returned to Harrisburg from a tour of inspection of the weather stations throughout the Susquehanna and Jnuiata Valleys, over which he has supervision and during his trip made investigations at two places where it is quite probable that new river statious will be established. By reason of the narrow water shed drained by the Big Piiie creek, which in bounded on both sides by high hills, this stream frequently rises with great iapidity, and that the public may be warned from this source more piompt ly in the future it is proposed to estab lish a station at Cedar Ron, Lycom ing county, which is located on the creek twenty-five miles back from the West Branch of the river, and about fifty miles from Williamsport. The other proposed station will be at Sinnemahoniug, Cameron county, on the Sinnemahoniug creek,ten miles from Keating, which is at the junc tion of the oreek.and the West Branch. This stream often rises rapidly be cause of the many smaller streams tributary to it and the water from it often comes down in dangerous quan tities without warning upon Lock Haven. To establish these stations it will be necessary to secure the conseut of the commissioners of the two counties to place gauges on the piers of bridges iu the two localities.
