families to move to this city in tin

TELEPHONES
FOB COOMB!
O. V Aimrmm. Esq.. his just re
turned from tho St. Louis Exposition
and a visit in southern Illinois. Ho
became greatly interestedjwhile in 111
inois in the systems of rural tele
phone lines that have b en extensive
ly established there and which are
proving of untold value to the farmers.
IHe was impressed with the matter to
such au extent that he made a little
study of the situation there in com
parison with the situation iu this sec
tion and as a result he has decided to
work up the rural telephone business
here if given any encouragement.
Pettijohn, Pitman & Company have
put iu hundreds of 'phones in south
ern Illinois aud Mr. Pettijohn is now
interested in the situation in this
county as the result of that Mr. Am
rman told him. and would be willing
to come here to promote lines from
farm to farm all through this section
if he were giveu the assurance thai
the movement could be successfully
carried out. His firm is one that has
had much experience in this line oi
work and has been very successful.
These lines are conducted by the farm
ers themselves, who form mutual com
panies aud get their telephone service
at extremely low rates.
Mr. Amerman is confident that the
establishment of rural telephone sys
tems iu this part of the State would
be a great boon for the farmers. Since
lie came home the Illinois firm has
written inquiring the price of poles,
and so on aud expressing a desire to
open up this territory. Mr. Amerman
will broach the subject to some of the
farmers of bis acquaintance and wait
to hear from any who may be interest
ed. If sufficient interest is aroused he
will take active steps towards the
formation of the rural systems here.
Anxiety Over Bridge Hatter.
The question as to whether the new
river bridge could be used even if com
pleted this winter is causing seme
speculation because of the fact that
patent block flooring is to be used and
could not be laid iu cold weather. It
is understood, however, that there
will be no trouble along this line, for
if the regular flooring can not he put
in place as soon as the bridge is com
pleted a temporary plank floor will
serve during the cold weather.
Everybody is hopiug more than ever
now for the speedy completion of the
bridge, since travel on the ferry is al
ready becoming very unpleasant be
cause of the cold. The river is low
and will be shallow most of the time
during the winter, except in times of
occasional freshets. As a result of
the low water the ferry can not get
near the south shore aud teams have to
ford a quite long distance. This is
especially hard on horses. The
progress of the Horseheads Construc
tion Compauy in erecting the super
structure of the bridge will be watch
ad with great interest, not to say an
xiety.
THE PERFECT WA¥.
Scores of Danville Citizens Have Learn

If you suffer from backache,
There is onlv one way to cure it.
The perfect way is to euro the kid
neys.
A bad hack means sick kidneys.
Neglect it, urin »ry troubles follow.
Doan's Kidney Pills are made for
kidneys only.
Are endorsed by Danville people.
J. L. King, moulder, of 40:1 E. 4th
St., Bloomstiurg says: " The statement
I made in 188fi is about all I can say
regarding Doan's Kidney Pills. They
cured me of kidney complaint and
backache at that time and the cure has
been a lasting one. I can now, eighl
years after, endorse my former state
ment. Prior to 18% I had suffered foi
a long time with a weakness aud lame

a terrible backache right across mj

Cigar Over Century Old.
William M. Seohler has a curiosity
that attracted a great deal of interes
yesterday. It is in the form of a ciga
which is probably over one huudrec
years old. The stone house on tin
farm of L. H. Park at Cameron, buil
in the year 1786, during latst montl
was being rebuilt by the owner anr
the cigar was found between twi
stones in the wall. It had beeu plaet
ered over and was well preserved.
The plaster was made of a mixturi
of lime, sand and straw,the only kitu
that was used a century ago. Th<
cigar can be seen at the store of A

Ready for Hacninery.
Whenever the engine and dynamo for
the municipal light plaut reach Dan
ville the foundations for them will be
in readiness and they can be promptly
set up. So far no advices from the
Rumsey Electrical company have been
rec ived and it is not known when the
machinery will be shipped.
Yesterday Superintendent Reefer,of
the Water Works, removed his crew
from the protecting wall and resumed
operations on the big bed of masonry
in tfie Water Works building. By
evening the foundations were complet
ed. They will have to set for a few
days and at the end of that time will
I be hard enough to bear the weight of
the machinery that is to be placed on
them.
The work ou the street is being de

FINE IMB
IN IIMH)
The Young Meu's OhriHtian Associa

with the Ithaca Conservatory of Music
for a course of four strictly high-class
entertainments, to he given in Y. M.

Taesduy ••veiling, November 22nd, at 8
o'clock. The next will come Thursday
evening, Decernhei Bth and the renrtin
iii K two (on dates to bo arfkngod) in
January and February.
The first number will be a concert
company, consisting of I acomplish

The entire coruse will be first class
in every respeot.aud e.»ch number will
prove entertaining and ipstrncti ve.
These entertainments have been secur
ed for the pleasure and profit of the
people; and, in order thit all may
have an opportunity to attend, the
1 price of admission has been fixed at 15
cents, for men, women and children.
There will be no reserved seats. The

Home After Long Absence.
Mrs. John L. Evans and daughter,
Marguerite, on Satuiday returned to
Danville, their home city,after a long
sojourn ill a strange land, or rather in
several distant parts of the country,
tor they have traveled considerably
dunug their absence of about ten
months. Mr. Evans left here a year
ago and his wife and daughter joined
him last January at Albuquerque, New
Mexico,where they too* up their resi
dence in the hope of Mr. Evans there
recovering his health. Three months
ago they w« lit to Colorado Springs,
where Mr. Evans was given vt ry ben
eficial treatment, which now he is re
ceiving at Denver. His physician
states that at the end of six weeks he
may be able to return to his home.
On their way back to Danville Mrs.
Evans and her daughter visited the
St. Louis Exposition. They were
greatly phased to get home. Life in
New Mi xico, dry and sandy, was not
to their liking. They, however, en
joyed Colotado Springs. If the health
of Mr. Evans continues to grow better
and he gets home as expected lie will
arrive at about Christmas time His
houie- r, oming after so long an absence
will doubtless be a happy one.
Election Was a Quiet One.
The election of a Captain of Com
pany F was conducted at the Armory
by Major Charles P. Gearhart Satur
day night and was a very quiet affair,
1 there being no opposition to the re
election of Captain J. Beaver Gear
hart. The attendance of members of
the company was large. The re-elec
tion of the present iucumbont of the
office of Captain left no vacancies to

After the election Captain Gearhart
briefly addressed his men. He referr

went over the work that the company
will have to do prior to the next in

Will Church Club Change.
I Whether the Church Club of the Dio
i cese of Central Pennsylvania shall re
main as it is or split is a question
which the members will be called up
on to solve at the fall meeting to be
held at Wilkesbarre next week,
l It has been suggested that,when the
two new dioceses are carved out of
the old one, that the club will remain
as it is, changing its name to the
Church Club of Central Pennsylvania.
It is not desired to have the club split
because two small ones would not be
as strong as the present large one.
Secretary Frank C. Angle has sent
out preliminary notices of the fall
meeting and dinner which will be
held at Wilkesbarre on November 17.
Hon. Henry M. Hoyt, solicitor gener
al of the LJnit"d State*, will be the
guest of honor.
State (jrange Meeting.
Of great importance to the patrons
and farmers of Pennsylvania is the
coming Stato Grange meeting to be
held in the City of Erie, December
13th to 16th. It promises to be one of
tiie largest and most enthusiastic State
Grange meetings ever held. If the
plodding farmer, who has all his life
never looked beyond hi; farm and the
narrow limits of his little community
could spend at least a day in this
mee ting he would get such a revt Ist ion
of the dignity of his calling and the
possibilities before the Anieiican farm
er as would be a revelation to him.
Why should not every one of the more
than 300,000 farms of the State be rep
resented there? What respect would
be paid to the utt ran res of such a
body!

The Danville basket ball team sue
•cssfully opened its s> ason Friday eve
with a well played uauni against the
Lewismrg Athletic Club. A large
crowd li 1 led the Armory ami thorough
ly enjoyed tlie sport.
The Danville team has good material
in plenty and a change of player* wa
niade in the secoud half in order to
give all of the players a try oat In
the first half Lewi«burg scored II
points and Danville 5, the former
throwing more accurately, although
Danville in pissing was far superior
to the visitors. In the last half Lewi
bo rg was only able to scor-) one point
and that was on a fool, bat Danville
by outplaying their opponents at every
point, scored twelve On the whole it
was a finely played game.
The score was: Danville, IN, Lewis
burg, 12. The teams limd up as fol

Katherine Willard.
Manager Edward C. White, andri
whose direction Katherine Willard i>
starring in"The Power Behind Th»
Throne," is a strict disciplinarian.
When his company is playing in a ont
night stand, Mr. White insists upon «
performance equal to, if not better,
than is giveu in a large city. Every
piece of scbnery in the production
KATHERINE WILLARD
must be used if it can possibly be plac
ed on the stage,aud not even the smal
lest detail of business can be omitted.
The local management has therefore
no hesitancy in guaranteeing patrons
a treat when Miss Willard appears a*
"Aria" in the favorite romantic dra
ina,"The Power Behind The Throne"
at the Opera House ou Saturday night
No Statistics to be (iiven.
The ministers of the city held a
meeting at the Y. M C. A. yesterday
morning to consider matters pertain
ing to the religious census of Dan
ville. One decision they reached will
be somewhat disappointing to many
citizens, who had hoped that the
oensus figures would be tabulated aud
made public and in that way a fairly
accurate knowledge of the strength
and standing of individual churches
and denominations could be learned
The plan is, however, to tarn over to
each minister the car Is belonging t<
him, a list of the members of his
church, of those connected with no
ohurch aud of ttie one-! eipres ing pre
fer* nee for hi* churob. No statistics
will be compiled, but each pastor by
learning who the people are that do
not hold membership in any church
and who havo a leaning for bis own
church will have opened to him a
broad field for Christian work.
Reports were made of the satis'a t
ory advancement of the work of cen-us
taking, which is not yet quite com
pleted. In all four or five streets are
to be looked after. A committee was
named to finish the work that remains.
The results are considered by the min
isters to be very good, for in just two
weeks most of the city has been can
vassed. The part remaining to do may
be completed yet this week.
Equipment Increased.
The equipment of the Commercial
Department of tfie Danville high school
has been increase! by the pur-base of
a copying press ami blotter bath.whieh
was authorized at the last meeting of
the School Board. The students now
are receiving practice In letter-oopy
ing, which makes the curriculum of
the commercial school about complete,
so that in the school a thorough and
practical business education may lie
obtained
Came by Trolley.
The attendance of strangers at the
play at the Danville Opera Hoose Sat
urday night was large. There were
psople from Bloomshurg and points all
along the line of the Danville and
Bloomsburg trolley here to enjoy "The
Missouri Girl." The trolley was lib
erally pitrotmed. The Danville and
Blooui-burg road certainly is proving
a greit convenience in ive>y couceiv
able war and the folks living on ttie
new trolley line are not slow in tak
ing advantage of it.
Turkeys Will Be Shipped Hast.
The price of turkeys will hi all pral
ability hj more reasonable this year
than during the past two seasons, as
the supposed scarcity of the handsome
fowl in this section has caused the
we>t 'rii raisers to make extensive pre
parations to flood the market at grett
ly reduced prices This they say will
give them a comfortable margin of
profit.
Secured Harriajje License.
A marriage license was issued at the
Prothonotary's office Saturday morn
