MONTOUR AMERICAN FRANK C. ANGLE, Proprietor. Danville, Pa., Jan. 12, 1905. RAILROAD EMPLOYE KILLED BY CARS Samuel Lucas, of Nescopeck, au em ploye of the work train, was instantly killed on the Pennsylvania railroad at that place shortly after eight o'clock yesterday morning. The work train occupied the siding at the engine house aud was waiting for the passenger train due at 8:23 o'clock to pasi. Mr. Lucas was on the caboose. He desired to leave the tram for a moment and thoughtlessly step ped down upon the main track. At that moment the passenger traiu came living along and before the unfortu nate workman was aware of its ap proach he was stiock aud left dying upon the track. The accident was wituessed by oth er members of the crew. The man was picked up aud Dr. Sivers was summon ed. The injured man breathed his la»t in a few minutes' time. Hs had sus tained a bad injury about the head, his both legs were broken and his chest was staved iu. Uudertakei Halter, of Berwick, took the body in charge. The man killed was some forty years of age. He leaves a wif»j and three children,the eldest—a girl— being four teen years of age. ROOSEVELT INSISTS TREATIES BE RATIFIED WASHINGTON,Jan. ll.—lt may be stated on the highest authority that President Roosevelt will insist upon the ratification of the various arbitra tion treaties without the amendment. If the S • With the respeot to the rebuilding of county Dridges. I recommend that the amount to be expended each year for this purpose be fixed at such a flgore as may seem to the Legislature to be wise. Under the law, as it ex ist* at present, there Is no limitation to the sum which the Boaid of Public Grounds and Buildings may be requir ed to expend in this way,and at a time of the coiuotdeuce of great floods aud diminished revenues, the situation might lead to serious embarrassment. If a certaiu proportion of the cost of construction of these bridges were left to the counties instead of the whole burden being imposed upon the State, the? would have a substantial inter est, not only iu makiDg effort to save Ihe bridges from destruction, but also in the preservation of such of the ma larial as could be utilized. There is no other great nation whioh allows the circulation of dirty paper monev is i- the case in the United States iiie trouble here in doe to a lack of law to compel batiks to have their soiled bills redeemed. It is only necessary to send them to a subtreasurv and the government then pays there mainder of the expense. There are a sufficient Dumber of subtreasuries to enable the banks to oomply with the law without muuli expense. Disease is conveyed by dirty bills But congr<*n does nothiug to stop the evil. A city charter agitation is again coming to the front at Shatnobin, and among the most ardent supporters of the movement are prominent business ineu who voted and worked against it when the question came up for decis ion at au election about seven years ago. It is the intention to have the citizens vote on tfie question aga n this fall. Leech--Lobach.

A SYMPATHETIC LETTER The remains of Fireman MeElwratli, who was killed in the railroad wreck near Weigh Scales, Monday morning, were taken to Reaver Springs yester day afternoon. Services were held at the home, Sunbury, which were at tended by a large number of railroad men and friends of the deceasad. The report was circulated Wednes day that Mrs. Dunkelberger, the wife of Operator Duukelberger, was dead, bat this proved to be incorrect. On Tuesday ev. niug Mr-i. Conser, wife of Engineer Conser, received a letter, addressed to herself and the members of her family, from Operator Dunkelberger, expressing his profound soirow, and telling of his deep grief as a result of the accident. The letter is printed in full and is as follows: Shainokin, Pa., Jan. 10, 1905. Mrs. Conser aud Family— I beg of you to read what 1 have to say in the lines follow ing. It is the only way that I see possible for me to express a small amount of what I feel for yon. It is almost impossible for me to collect my scattered thoughts together to do even this much. To think of this mistake with such horribly re sults almost sets me wild, and to think of you, poor widow and fatherless children; Oh ! I cannot express myself. I sym pathize aud mourn with you to the fullest meaning of the words. If you were to demand an excuse from me for such a mistake,l would answer to the fact that on yesterday morn ing I went to work with one particular thought," If I could only stay home today." Hav ing been at the bedside of my wife whose condition was crit ical, from Friday night until yesterday, almost constantly, my mind was in no condition for work which was demand ed of me; I thought of but lit tle other than my sick wife. Perhaps you would ask why I went to work under the above circumstances I would say, just beginning in married life, I felt as though every penny counted aud my new cares de manded it of me. If only I could do some thing, anvthing to replace what has been takeu, but God provides no way. Then we were friends,work ing together, you might say, and getting a smile or a wave of the hand each day and to th'nk ; Oh,dear people ; I can't think of it; its too much. And what it means to you. I hate to think of what may become of me, but if even an oppor tunity presents itself in daya to come, believe me, if lam at liberty to do so, I will make as much reparation as possible. Taking this horrible catas trophe and my wife's condition all in mv imnd it is almost too much,and I beg of you in your judgment on me to be kind enough to show some mercy. It is the first mistake of this kind I ever made and at what a cost. Again I beg of you to accept my deepest sympathy, as well as that of my parents. My wife d.ue know nothing of it. In these, your sad mo ments, I mourn with your family as well as Mr. McEl- Wrath's. But I can say no more and I dare not think of what may become of me. May God be with you in these sad days. Very sincerely, W. HAKRY DUNKELBERGER. (The operator). While in the hour of their deep be reavement the members of both fami lies express their tender sympathies for Dunkelberger and realize and state that any peison is liable to make a mistake. FLORIDA.

FIRE DRIVES OUT FAMILY Fire at midnight, Tuesday night, de stroyed the liou~e on Railroad street near Main in Catawissa, owned by William Ever, of Florida, and oc cupied by Ward Coruolison. The family had a narrow escape from death,being awakened only in time to escape, without haviug time to fully dress. The few clothes that the fath er and mother and a three years old child were able to wrap aronud them selves were practically a»l that they saved from their home. When the fire was first discovered by the Hollingshead boys it had already aained frightful headway. The family was aroused aud the fire alarm sound ed,aud quickly the Catawissa Fire Ue partment responded. Notwithstanding their most valiant efforts the home conld not be saved. Through their ef forts. however, the home of P. W. Gordon nearby was saved The cause of the fire is unknown, but it started in the rear of the house. The unfortunate family who only a few days ago buried their only other child, a several days' old baby, and t« , whom the loss of their home comes doubly hard, were taken to 3. B.

Broken Resolutions. And now, after a week or so, have yonr New Year's resolutions withered? Have you already neglected the nice new diary? Have yoo goue back to smoking after a few days of martyr dom? Are you up against the booze once more? Well, you are not the only one. The man who fails iu his high res olutions has lots of company. There are people who say that good j resolutions are bad because failure in them reveals to one his own weak nesses and slavery to habit; having once failed, lie is less likely ever to try agaiu with the hope and confidence so necessary to success. But isn't it better to know yonr weaknesses than to be blind to them. Diagnosis precedes cure. Isn't it oetter to have tried once and failed than never to have tried at all? Strength comes of effort. Isn't it better to have had a week or a day even—of sobriety for your self and of happiness and hope foryoar wife and children,to have had a clear braiued look at youself and the world about you, and to have known for a little while at least how it feels to be a man and master of yourself? One battle does not decide a cam paign. One failure, one reverse, or a dozen of them need not mean defeat. There is no need of waiting until next year to try acain. A good resolu tion and good efforts are as good on one day as another. They are best of all when made every day. Having failed, there is no need to drag out a whole year in helpless and vain regrets. There is nothing magical about the begiuuiug of the year or the ending of it. The only psychological moment for throwing off the thraldom of an injurious habit is the moment ! when you have the courage to try. Years are big spaces. We live by days. Every morning when we wake a new world begins; every night when we drop to sleep tlie old world dies. | Years, centuries,are nothing to us but names; it is the days, hours, initiates, seconds, that onr ours. The great events of world history have not waited upon arbitrary inea ! surements of time,nor need the affairs [ of any man's life. The best time to try to get up is when you realize that you have fal ! len. Yearly efforts may fall forever, | while daily efforts may soon succeed. A Guaranteed Cure For Piles.
