PATRIOTISM
THE KEYNOTE
At the annual picnic of the P. O.
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

came across Electric Bitters and it's

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.
These fresh air children as they aie
called consist of the very poor of all
nationalities gathered from the over
crowded tenements of the large cities

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.
I made a statement to that effect in
18% and that statement stands as good
today as it did theu."

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 probably remain in the original
diocese, with the See at Bethlehem
A new Bishop will in that event bo

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.

Company F, 12th Regiment, N. G.
P., will leave for the annual encamp
ment at Gettysburg on Friday even
ing next, July 2J. Captain Uearhart
will lake with hint the largest com
puny that ever attended encampment
from Danville, nomberiug 05 men, the
tall complement of the company.
Compauy !•' this year goes to eucamp
meut in a very jubilant mood owing
to its good showing made at its last
Inspection, which gives it the rank of
third in the regiment.
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. The boys got a vigorous
"hustle on," however, and now, it
would seem, the compauy is in the
Guard to stay.

Weather Observer E. R. 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.
