THE KBBSFDF
COUNT* FAIR
It. is gratifying to know that there
has been a pronounced reform in the
so-called amusement features of many
of the county fairs held in the state
this year. Such reform had becomo
necessary. Some of the features per
mittod in too many instances made at
tendance at the fails almost impossi
ble to self-respecting people.
It is a reflection upon the intelli
gence and good sense of the farmers,
who are most interested in agricultur
al fairs and are the largest patrons of
them, to suppose they must be amused
with fake shows aud gambling and
shameless, immoral displays. It has
been a fatal mistake on the part of
fair managers anywhere to admit them
aud the experience of the past few
years has shown that these things
done everything to discredit fairs and
art- more responsible for their failure
in many counties than any other fact.
The most successful fairs held in
Pennsylvania, and those which have
kept up from year to year, are the
ones that have been clean and free
from fakes and demoralizing shows.
Such things have no place iu an agri
cultural display. They are an offenso
to the decency of any community. The
farmer is not likely to take bis family
to an exhibition where they have been
made more conspicuous—as in so many
instances they have been—than the
products of thefary# It is to the credit
ot public this feeling is so
strong that fairs demoralized in this
way have been unprofitable, and in
some counties have been abandoned.
The county fair properly conducted
serves a most useful purpose. The
farmer attends it with the members of
his family to learn who of his neigh
bors has produced more or better re
sults than he, to see the latest and
best in farm implements, and for an
intelligent and generally profitable in
terchange of experience. He can be
useful to his neighbor in this, and his
neighbor is useful fo him. There is
something stimulating in it. It real
izes the usefulness of tins exhibit, and
all go back to their work with new
ideas and new ambitions which are
likely to produce still better results at
the next fair.
Tho agricultural fair is too import
ant an event in the farmers' work to
be demoralized and destroyed by fake
shows and gambling tricks. The move
ment for tho suppression of these feat
ures deserves the cordial support of
every respecting community. Phila

Y. M. 0. A. NOTES.
The closing session of a live days'
meeting of the 250 boys and men who
represent the youths' and boys' sec
tions of the Y. M. C. A., was held
Sunday, September 4, at the newly
acquired vacation hostelry of the as
sociation at Silver Bay, Lake Georgo.
The session was conducted by the in
ternational boys' secretary, E. M
Robinson, and one hundred boyß told
what they proposed doing in their as
sociations when they get home. They
had spent from Tuesday to Sunday in
discussing Y. M. C. A. methods and
services for boys. In their deliberations
their secretaries had nothing to say as
the discussions were limited to the
delegates. The average age of these
delegates was sixteen, and thoy came
from as far as west as California aud
east as St. John, N. B. They discuss
ed the questions of tiie management
of the gymnasiums; whethor girls
should come to their receptions; how
to run a literary society, a religious
meeting or a Bible class; how to raise
money for foreign associations,how to
head off a boy who is gottiug to bo a
sport; the high school boys' athletics;
preparation for college; helping street
boys and fellow school boys, etc. Ad
dresses were given by John R Mott
aud F. S. Brook man, of China; E. T.
Col ton, Charles Gilkie.E. F. See, Rev.
M. L Morgan, and Walter Diack. Dr.
George J. Fisher aud A. M. Chosley
were the directors of athletics. The
"motherly man," with death-bed
stories, was not on the program. The
fatherly man aud the athletic Christ
ain was. The boys began the day by
dividing up into twenty-five Bible
classes, led by Y. M. C. A. secretaries
at seven in the morning, before break
fast. All the morning was given to
discussion, afternoon to sports, swim
ming and mountain climbing.
These boys represent 90,000 ot the
younger members of the Association of
North America. There was no ciga
re'te smoking.meanness or filth among
them. The precocious religious prig
was not in evidence. Four hours a
day had been spent in serious Bible
study and discussion, led by men who
were distinctly religious leaders. The
boys' religion was genuiue, so was
their fun. and the whole was whole
some ami natural and strenuously re
ligious.
Wonderful Tomatoes.
Heber L>. De Witt of Waluutdale, has
broken all rocor.ls in growing toma
toes this year. Two specimens weie ex
hibited about South Danville yester
day which excited much wonder.
Each of the tomatoes measured 15'.,
inches in circumference, one weighing
one pound, nine ounces and the other
one pound seven ounces.
It, would require but lorty tomatoes
averagiug the size of these to make a
bushel.
A BRIDGE
AND RAILWAY
After numerous rumors which prov
ed to be idlo talk we can now an
nounce with certainty that within a
very short time Sunbury will he con
nected by a bridge willi Snyder coun
ty and on this bridge there will be an
electric railway which will run from
Sunbury to Selinsgrove. That this is
not a mere rumor was proven Saturday
morning when surveyors from York,
Pa., arrived in Sunbury and started
the preliminary work in connection
with the building of the bridge.
The bridge will be built at Bain
bridge street and will connect witli
the Snyder county shore near the road
running along in the rear of Clement's
Park. As soon as the work of the sur
vey is completed the building of the
bridge will be started and an effort
will be made to havo the bridge up
and in service before the first of the
year if the weather permits.
When the bridge is completed work
on the street railway will bo started
and by the time spring opens the peo
ple in Sunbuiy and Sliamokin and
along the proposed route will have the
advantage of a thorough modern
equipped electric railway.
Through the untiring efforts of At
torney J. K. McWilliams the bridge
and street railway is a sure go after a
year of hard work. The company
building the bridge is composed of
Harrisburg capitalists aud Mr. Mc-
Williams is the treasurer and secre
tary. The same parties and officers
compose the company building the
electric railway. The charter for the
bridge was granted some time ago but
the delay in starting the work was
due to securing the charter for the
railway. The application has been
made and the charter is assured. J, The
stockholders of both the bridge and
railway companies w ill be mostly peo
ple of Sunbury.
It was also learned Saturday morn
ing that an application will be made
on Moudav for a charter for a narrow
gauge railway from New Berlin to
Wiulield to connect with the Reading
railway. The road will be used main
ly for hauliug lumber. —Sunbury Item.
Samuel Shawda at Sunbury.
Samuel Shawda. Sunbury's self sup
posed detective, who is wanted at
Williamsport on several charges is 111
these parts again,but manages to keep
out of the clutches of the police.
Several months ago, it will bo re
membered that Shawda while board
ing at Williamsport flim-flamed the
boarding mistress out of some money
by representing himself to be a detec
tive and promising to transact some
business for her. About the samo time
a Williamsport woman was attacked
in the kitchen at her home one morn
ing at an early hour and robbed. Sev-
burglaries happened about
the same time. A young fellow by the
name of Knapp, who boarded at the
same place witli Shawda, was arrest
ed ou suspicion. Developments con
nected Shawda with the case, but lie
in the meantime had skipped out. Of
ficers from Williainport followed him
to Sunbury aud Sliamokin, but failed
to capture him.
The other evening while Officer
Wlialen of Sunbury, wis patroling his
Market street beat he noticed a man
leave a seat in Cameron Park and run
toward the river. Suspecting that the
man was fleeing because he had com
mitted some unlawful act he started
in pursnit. As the man passed under
the arc light the offioer discovered it
was Shawda, but as he had a start of
over a half block he escaped by dodg
ing in a dark alley.
MAKES WORK EASIER.
Danville People Are Pleased to Learn How
It is Done.
It's pretty hard to attend to duties
With a constantly aching back ;
With annoying urinaiy disorders.
Doan's Kidney Pills make work
easier.
They cure backache.
They cure every kidney ill.
John Temanus, puddler, of 301 Main
St., says:"l consider Doau's Kidney
Pills an excellent remedy for back
ache. I used them and they cured me
of backache from which I had suffered
for years. My trouble was an indescrib
able doll aching pain right across tiie
loins,sometimes my back was so weak
that I could hardly do anything, and
on this account I have had to lay off
work several times. I was unable to
bend or stoop without severe pain ami
I was often obliged to catch hold of
something to keep me from falling. I
usod liniments and hot applications
hut until I tried Doan's Kidney Pills
I never had anything to do me any
good. Doan's Kidney Pills were just
the remedy I needed. I had taken
them only about three days when my
back became strong and soon was as
strong as it ever was. I have had no
backache or any indication of kidney
trouble siuce using Doan's Kidney
Pills. "

JUDRNBY BACK
TO ANTIRTAM
The forty second anniversary of the
battle of Antietam where 157,000 brave
Americans fought one of the greatest
and most determined battles ever re
corded in history, occurs next Satur
day. The Union army had 87.000 men
engaged and the Confederate army
most stubbornly contested every foot
of the ground with 70,000 men. The
killed and wounded and missing on
tho Northern side numbered 12,410
and on tho Confederate side 111,533.
The State of Pennsylvania has gen
erously appropriated money to erect
thirteen monuments on the battlefield
of Antietam to commemorate the
heroic deeds of the 45th, ISth, 50th,
51st, 100 th, 124th,§125th, I2Btb, 130 th,
132 nd and 137 th Regiments, Pennsyl
vania Volunteer lufautrj*, 12th Regi
ment Pennsylvania Cavalry, and Dur
ell's Battery of Artillery in that
bloody action. Company Eof the
132 nd Regiment, was recruited in
Bloomsburg by Captain Michael Whit
moyer ; Company II of the same Regi
ment was raised at Catawissa, while
Company A was recruited in Danville
In this battle the regiment lost, offic
ers killed 2, enlisted men killed 28,
officers wounded 4, enlisted men
wounded 110, enlisted men captured
8, making a total loss to the regiment
ot 152 men.
How to Stay Young.
How old are youV
The adage says that women are as
old as they look and men as old as
they feel.
That's wrong.
A mau and woman are as old as they
take themselves to be.
Growing old is largely a habit of
the mind. "As a man thinketh in his
heart so is he." If he begins shortly
after middle age to imagine himself
growiug old ho will bo old.
To keep oneself from decreptitude is
somewhat a matter of will jiower. Tho
fates are kind to the man who hangs
ou to life with both hands. He who
lots go, will go. Death is slow only
to tackle tho tenacious.
Pouce de Leon searched in the wrong
place for the fountain of youth. It is
in oneself! One mn«t keop oneself
young inside. So that while "the out
er man perisheth the inner man is re
newed day by day."
When the human mind ceases to ex
ert itself, when there is no longer an
active interest in the aflairs of this
life, when tho human stops reading
and thinking and doing the man, like
a blasted tree, begins to die at the top.
It is the spiritual part that keeps
men alive. Let one give himself over
to tho lowest forces of his nature and
he will soon die of animalism.
Mauy a man is dead on his feet and
is only walking about to save funeral
expenses. He has educated his chil
dren, acccumnlated a competence, ac
complished his ideal and he retires
from his labors in order to linger and
die. Death readily accepts the invita
tion.
Slowly the world is learning tho
secret of longevity. And the average
of the years of human life is being
raised no less by mind habit than by
improved conditions.
You are as old as you think you are.
Keep the harness on.
Yonr job is not done.
Dr. David Kennedy, Rondout. N. Y.
DEAR SIR :—Some time since I was
troubled with blotches coming out on
my breast, of a scrofulous character,
and my general system seemed to be
out of order. I was induced to try
Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Rem
edy. The first bottle drove the erup
tion away and I feel better every way.
It is a splendid blood medicine. —

The Jewish New Year,
Rosh Hashonah, the Jewish New
V ( ,ar, which begpn Friday evening,
ended Saturday evening at sunset.
The day was celebrated in all the Heb
rew Synagogues the world over, Dan
ville being no exception, where an
ablo and well-known Kabbi minister
ed to the B'ne /ion congregation and
a large number of non-resident Heb
rews were present from Bloomsburg.
Berwick and other nearby towns.
The Jewish New Year marks the be
ginning of the penitential season.
B'ne Zion congregation belong to
the division known as the Reform
Jews. The New Year festival is an
occasion of a reunion between friend
and friend, family aud family and all
Hebrew places of business accordingly
were closed on Saturday.
Following Rosh Hashonah in 10 days
is the Day of Atonement. This is
the most solemn of all Hebrew festiva
ls because in the olden times those
Jews who failed or refused to tako
part in tho celebration were cut off
from Israel. Tho penitential season
will lie celebrated during teu days be
ginning with Rosh Hashonah and end
ing with Yom Kuj pur. It differs from
tho Christian Lout in that the ordin
ary pleasures of every day life and the
indulgence of daily foods is not inter
dicted.
Habbi S. Rosenberg of New York,
officiated at B'ne Zion synagogue
during Rosh Hashonah. He is a very
able and eloquent Rabbi and it is not
unlikely that he will bo engaged to
officiate permanently.
Light for Seliusgrove,
After a prolonged agitation lasting
through five years Selinsgrove is ac
last assured of electric light. Two
efforts were made to have a plant with
borough ownership but this failed at
each election. Several franchises were
granted at different times,but
ed in fulfillment Friday night the
council by unanimous vote passed an
ordinance granting lighting privileges
toO. E. Pne.au electric engineer from
Philadelphia. A company of local cap
italists are hacking Mr Pue. The
ordinance compels the beginning of
work within thirty days and the com
pletion within six mouths. Mr. Pue
announced that work would begin at
once. Susquehanna university was I
about to install its own plant, bat j
have now decided to take light from

Brought Good Results.
The good work accomplished by the
State Board of Health in securing a
pretty general enforcement of the law
against, toy pistols, dynamite crackers
and other dangerous fire works is made
manifest by the statistics that were
compiled sinco the Fourth of July,and
which have been made pjblic. It is
proper to state that the light against
these explosives was not confined to
this state, but was pretty general
throughout the country. Tho number
of deaths from tetanus or lockjaw re
sulting from Fourth of July accidents
last year was four hundred and fifteen.
This year it is one hundred and five.
Last year there were eighty-two fatal
cases in Pennsylvania alone, and this
year there were but seventeen The
board should feel that its work ha 1
wrought the most satisfactory results,
and the public should give the board's
future efforts in this direction its
most earnest co-operation.

cures. It surpasses any other salve,

day, where they partook of a dinner
which wits given by Miss Olive Thomp
son and her Circle for the benefit of
St. Paul's M. E. church. The drive
was a very pleasant one, and the din
ner was delicious. The patronage from
Danville would have been much larg

of the weather which deferred ii good
many people from making the drive.
