Persons who are interested in the work of the Y. M G. A. in Danville, an well as those who are oonversant with the world wide influence of this agency for good among boys aud young men. will be glad to learn that the As sociation in oar midst i* having one of the best season's wurk in its history. This is true in every department, as the following record for the past week will show : The total number of visits to the bnilding, for all purposes, during the past seven days, was one thousand nine hundred and fifty-seven. There were 82 persons in the Bible class for the study of the Bunday school lesson,on Monday evening. On Tuesday the building was used morning and afternoon, by the School Directors of Montour County. In the evening, from 7 to 8 the Thomas Beav er Boys' Bible Class held its regular monthly reception, with a total attend ance of 250,0f which number 150 were members of the class. From 8 to 9 o'clock, the Directors held their reg laor monthly meeting. Wednesday evening a concert was giv«n by the Ithaca Male Quartette, with au attendance of 890 persons. The regular weekly meeting of the Boys' Bible Cl*«s was held on Friday evening, with an attendance of 150. In the various classes in the gym nasium there was an attendance for the week of 158, and over 250 bath* taken. The Sunday morning Bible class had an attendance of eleven men, and at the Sunday afternoon mixed meeting Tfmrft of fbo week, together with hundreds of incidents in and about the Association building, proves the value of the work, and persons who are contributing to its support will learn with pleasure that there is "something doing," and that Danville will keep up its end of the work, and thus prove, without a doubt, that it is one of the most active evangelistic en terprises in existence today, working three hundred »nd sixty five days in the year for the glory of God, the good of the church, an 1 the winning of young men o Ohrist. As long as our citizens will recog nize its value, and remember that the Y M. G. A. is a part of the church, and a part of a mighty organization that has gained favor In every quarter of the world, and will help to keep the Association op to the standard in Danville, the work will go right on in the right direction and prove itself the one agency in our midst where all men can meet and make the best of their opportunites from a social, physical, intellectual and spiritual standpoint.

EIGHT HEN TAKES FRIGID PLUNGE • The naphtha launch owned and op erated by Daniel Ross upset Tuesday morning and spilled nine men into the icy waters of the Susquehanna. Luokily the boat was near the lauding when the accident occurred; so all the passengers managed to reach shore be fore being overcome by ttie freezing water. Those in the boat were Peter Baylor and Statiou Agent W. li. Olark of Soath Danville, Dr. E. A. Curry of this city, Calvin Clark of M»yberry township, George Woodruff of Rush township, William Oberdorf, of Sunbury, aud a traveling sales man, George E. Williams, of Roches ter, New York. Frank Ross and his sou Dauiel were running the launch. It wan shortly after 9 o'clock when the accident occurred,the boat was re turning from the P. R R. passenger train. There was quite a heavy floe of ice in the river, but the launch had been easily plowing through suoh ice for davs. so no trouble wa» anticipat ed from that source. When the craft had reached a point about 30 feet from the Danville shore it struck a stone that .-lightly tilted it, and a large ice cake, just then striking the boat,serv ed farther to unbalance it. At this critical moment Mr Williams moved to the lo>ver side of the lauucti aud in a twinkling the little craft capsized, and threw men and bundles in a confused mass into the water. The water was about three feet deep at this point and several of the pass engers were wet ouly to the waist. The others, however, were completely submerged, and barely escaped being thrown under the boat. Those of the unfortunate party who reside on this side of the river started with all possible haste for home, their wet clothes clinging to them,and freez ing on the way. The men from the other side were not so fortunate, for the river lay between them and the warmth of the home fireside, but they were not compelled to endure their suffering very long. Places were soon found where they secured a change of clothing and although the fit, in most oases, was not of the best,the dry gar ments were most acceptable. Reporters Good Fellows. Bishop Talbot, while in Pottsville, said to a Chroniole representative: "I have always found the reporters ex cellent fellows." The Bishop but voic ed the sentiment of every man of prominence who has been frauk with the newspaper workers. It is the man who want* to bo mysterious who does not find reporters good fellows because the latter usually get behind the mys tery. Then there is another class which imagines the reporter is a being only fit to become the butt of ridicule— that it is a jolly good joke to fool the reporter. But this class is soon mea sured by the discerning newsman aud are set down at their proper level. But the man who is frauk with the reporter, aud the reporter who honors his position sufficiently to grasp what the word confidence means, will get ! aloug together, aud neither will have fintti or course, but frankness and honesty will never cause any man to lose confidence in the news man, aud the latter, if fie constantly practices frankness aud homstv ami never violates a confidence, will have little trouble in bagging legitimate news. The mysterious men on either side are the ones who cause trouble. Bishop Talbot is not one of that class. The reason that coughs and colds pro duce con-tipation and weaken the longs is b"Caui-e they interfere with all digestion. That new di-covery known as Kennedy's Laxative Honey and Tar cures all Coughs, Crouo, Whooping Cough and assists in ex pelling colds from tho system by gent ly moving the bowels.

Brown of the Third Regiment, Sons of Veterans Re serves, and division organizer of that order, was in this city yesterday ar ranging lor the establishment,in Dan ville, of a Camp of the Sons of Veter ans. Colonel Brown is at present locat ed in Shatuokiu. He was born in this city and is well known to many of our citizens. Ho was at one time em ployed in the office of the Montour American. Later he very ably filled positions with Shamokin newspapers. The work that Col. Brown was en gaged in yesterday was of merely a preliminary nature, and nothing def inite lias as yet been done in rtie es tablishment of a Camp lure; although the men with whom Col. Brown talked all seemed ro be very much in favor of the movement. He stated l»st evening that if his work of interesting Dan ville men in the organization proceeds with the same degree of success in the neat future as it did yest< rday it is probable that a Ca up may be organiz ed in this ci v in about three weeks. The Sons of Veter.wis, an auxiliary to the Grand Armv of the Republic, has for its object the perpetuation of the deeds of our fathers in the civil war. Only sons anil grandsons of veterans are eligible. Colonel Brown met the members of Goodrich Post, No. 22, after their meeting last even ing, and they all expressed themselves as being thoroughly in favor of the movement, and willing to leud their aid in the work of organizing a Camp in Danville. An excellent characteristic of the Sons of Veterans is the military fea ture connected with the order called the Sons of Veterans Reserres. Com panies have been organized in many of the Camps throughout the country. Drilliug is done under regular army regulations, and national and state en campments held annually. A company of Reserves was sworn in at Milton last night, and the state encampment is to be held there in June. The order has taken a forward move -1 meut in this part of the state during | the past year, many new Camps hav j ing been organized. There is also in- I creased activity iu the older camps.

ST. PETERSBURG,Jan. 84.—Thou sands of strikers are at this hour as sembling iu the Nevsky Prospect. This locality contains the homes of many of the fashionable element of the capital. The outgoing trains today are carry ing the wives and children of many j nrominent St. Petersburg citizens to | outlying places of safety. KOVNO,Russia, Jan. 21. —The strike movement is growing here and rioting has begun. No serious damage has as yet bet n done. Kovno is the capital of the Russian government of the same name. The eastern boundary line of the province touches on Germany, while the north ern line comes within a short distance of the Baltic. Few of the residents of Kovno are Rns-ians, the majority of them being descendants of theSainogitians, a peo ple speaking a language closely allied to the Lithuanians MOSCOW, Jan. 24.—The strike is this morning spreading tapidly through Moscow district. The gas works are idle aud guarded by troops, while the same condition exists at the electric light works. The demands of the strikers are the same as those of their fellow workmen I in St. Petersburg. The printers have all stiuck and as a result there will be no newspapers in Moscow tomorrow. There has been no fighting as yet, though the men are marching about the city, gathering re cruits from tactories and stores as they • go. Up to uoon 10,000 strikers had quit work. The employes of the hoppers factory ( this morning refuned to join the strike but were forced to quit work. A mob of 500 workmen forced an entrance to j the factory. They ejected the work men and demolished all the machinery. The employes of the tanneries were ; persuaded to join the ranks of the strik ers this afternoon. All arms have been removed from the gunsmiths' shop-', most of which have been closed to prevent the strik ers obtaining weapous. ST. PETERSBURG,Jan. 24.—While quiet again pervaded St. Petersburg aud its environs today, it was evident even to the casual observer, that this was order of the enforced kind; that it was preserved by a circle of glitter ing bayonets, and that, for the time being, the p 'Oplo were overawed. Will it last, or does the next few days, or perhaps hours, hold for tiie capital or the country scenes of earn age and noting bevopd the lam . _ —. "Mice of Sunday-; xtmr will ansW' r this, but indications are that the trouble has not by any means ended The streets today had a more normal app-aiance than yesterday except that the shop windows are still bttrfd and shuttered. The number of troops Ins been reduced nut reserves in 1 arg il umb *rs are conceal' d at many points, ready for a tion,should they be called on. In the interior the strike and rev olutionary sentiment are rapidly spreading, especially in the Moscow district. Here, as in St. Petersburg,the strik ers are offering no offense for the rei s n. as pointed out yesterday,they are not yet in a position to take any deter mined stand against the 'roops. Thi lack, however, is beiug gradually remedied by raids on various firearm factories where not only rifles, but cartridges and explosives have been obfaiued. With these in their hands ttie strikers will present a most formid able front to the troops, and should a clash occur, the results would he far more serious than even the horror of Sunday's massacre. There is little question that the spread of the strike of Moscow has caused more perturbation in the offici al mind than even the widespread movement iu St. Petersburg. The em ' ployes of mauy factories there have quit work,and the strikers are emulat ing the example of the capital work men. They are marching from place to place prevailing upon others to join them. All the printers of the city have gone out, as have the workers at the gas plants and the electric light plants. ST. PETERBURG, Jan. 24.-The | capital is quiet this morning but it is feared the quiet will la? t for but a few hours when the storm will again break loose. During the night the strikers were busy. They tore down the telephone wires which run from St. Petersburg to Tsarkoe-Selo. As a result the Czar has since been but partially informed of the progress of events during the night. The strikers also attempted to plund er the big Universal provider store hut were repelled. Fifteen hundred work men succeeded in getting into the 1 Sestrorezk rifl factory, and plundered all the rifles in the factory. They de stroyed the narrow gauge railway from St. Petersburg to Sestrorzk. It is reported the workmen have al so destroyed a section of the railway running from St. Petersburg to Mos cow. Another leport of sensational char act. r current this morning is to the effect that the rebels have forced an entrance to the Gentiloft ammunition factory, and have seized larg- quanti- j ties of explosives and cartridges. These ' with the rifles they have obtained hv loot will give many of them the muni tions, the lack of which have prevent ed serious clashes with troops yester day and last night, and which made possible the massacre of Sunday with out retaliatory measures against the troops. All these indications this morning point to a renewal of bloodshed today. I The rebels it is learned intend to march 40,000 strong to Tsarkoe-Selo and make another attempt to see the Czar. If they persist there will beyond d'tubt be a repetition of Sunday's dis aster. Should a clash occur today between these marchers and troops, it will be as has been pointed out afar more ser ious affair than the massacre of Sun day. The men are fairly well equipped with arms, and in addition to this they have the death of their comrades of Sunday to urge them on, and a fight, should it occur, will be carried on with a fury such as only a com mune or an occurrence of this kind could witness. The men are determin ed to tight to the last drop of blood, and this would mean awful carnage. ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 24.—The government has issued an official state m nt through the columns of the offici al messenger stating that there were no serious clashes yesterday and no casualties occurred. The statement reads: "There were no conflicts yesterday btween the crowds and the troops and tie latter were not required to use fire arms. The crowds were scattered by the timely appearance of the military. The military during the day prevent ed any attempt to attack the Gastouig gate. "In the evening the men working at the electric light works joined the strikers. Consequently in the dark ness groups began breaking the wind ows of shops in several streets. Order was soon restored. Iu the course of yesterday nobody was injured. "The number of casualties on Sun day, reported from 53 registeied am bulance centers were ninety-six killed and 333 wounded. NEW YORK, Jan. 24.—Emma Gold man, the anarchist, says that even if the worst conies to worst and the Rus sians revolution is subdued, autocracy can never thrive in Russia. "This rebellion," she says, "has been ripening for years. The greatest thing to help the cause of the revolu tion is the combination of peasants and students that occurri <1 five ytars ago. It may be that the Poles, the Armenians and Finns will all join hands with the revolutionists. Iu such an occurrence the outcome will be the very best and Russia will become a : Republic.''

Miss Dillie Maurer, the only child of Mrs. Marv Mnurer, committed sui cide by drowning herself in the North Branch of the Susquehanna river.near Dunham's Run, Northumberland, Mou dav morning about eight o'clock. Deceased and tier mother tesided ou North Front street, Northumberland, and both worked in the cap factory. Thoy both went to work together to the factory Monday morning and the daughter had told her mother that she was worried because some of the girls talked about her, and that she was go ing to the post office. She went to the post office and there wrote a note, which was found on her body, and in which she stated that she drowned her self because a certain girl iu town talked about her. The name of the girl was stated iu the note. Tho fact was discovered by Scott Eckert, of North umberland, who was going along the river aud found a coat and hat and ou investigation found tho body, which had floated quite a distance down the stream. He at once summoned assist ance and the body was taken ashore and efforts made to restore life, but of no avail. She was takeu to her home and an inquest held. The girl was about sixteen years of ge and her mother is almost frantic over the sad death of her only child with whom she was doiug her best to make home pleasant, and the idle gossip of evil tongues is answerable , for this girl's untimely death and a broken hearted mother left alone. The iuquest iu the case of Miss Dil lie Maurer, who was drowned in the Susquehanna river at Northumberland, on Monday morning was held yester day morning. Acting Coroner McCormick empanel ed the following jury : Squire Fertig, A. A. Dunham,H. W. Hummel,Erastus Dunham, W. S Eggert and John Bright, all of Northumberland, who after hearing the testimony returned a verdict of suicide.

It was brought back Saturday evening by a crew of fourteen men, under command of the Captain of the squad, County Commissioner Cook. Twelve of these men weut down to where the ferry boat was, early Satur- : day morning. They made the trip in ' row boats. Later Commissioner Cook started for the scene of operatloa, go ing by train and taking two more men witli turn, thus increasing the number of polemen to fourteen. However, the officer in charge, when once the up , river trip was begun,did as much pol- j ing as any of his force. When the men reached the boat,they j discovered that they were up against j an uulooked for proposition. The flat ' had been run up Wolverton creek some | distance from its mouth, when the . water was high. The water having falleu to a considerable extent since, had left one end of the flat tightly grouuded on the bottom of the stream. Consequently, it had to be raised and pushed into deeper water before it could be floated out into the river. It | took a great deal of time to accomplish ! that difficult feat, but it was finally effected and the long and uncertain trip back to Danville begun. Every thing went all right during the early stages of the journey, until Cook's riffles were reached. There the boat ! ran aground, the bottom having come j in contact with a large stone that was | just concealed from sight by the shal ; low water. The ferry was firuily fast i ened. For three hours it bid defiance j to the 15 strong men to push it from < the top of that rock. Fiually, though, j it yielded to the powers against it and | glided off into deeper water. From | that on the men had no trouble, j The remainder of the journey was ' made without anything worthy of note i transpiring, the landing being made ' on the South side, late Saturday even ing.

The largest appropriation ever made by a railroad company for the estab lishment of Young Men's Christian As sociations along its line has just been authorized by the board of directors of a southern company, which, upon the recommendation of its president, voted that $(50,000 be spent in the erec tion of Association equipment at divi- I siou points along the line of its road i during 1905. This will provide three new buildings and extensive improve ments in the Associations already or | ganizei. The excellent influence of ' the Association on the men centering at one of the most rough and raw divi sion points on the road has led the president to recommeud the estendou and equipment of these Associations. The Southern Railway Company has recently made an appropriation of $15,- 000 for a building and provided a ceu tral and valuable site in Spencer, N. C. The Pennsylvania Railroad, which has now 22 departments at division points, with 8.500 members, has given authority to equip quarters for its em ployees at Jersey City and South Am boy, N. J., to be placed in charge of the Association, and will rapidly or gauize its men. Already over 1,200 men have signed for membership in Jersey City, where there are 15,000 j railroad employees.

He also urged the hearty support of organized labor in all the trades as essential to the success of the Association. The past history of labor in this countrv, said | Mr. Mincher, shows that organization j is the only means of protection to the I laboring classes.

INTERESTING STORY OF THE Yfiß One of Dai vil'e's old veterans is the proud possessor of a rare aud valuable relic of the late' Civil War. It is a guitar, and the owner is Richard W. Eggert, forniprly editor of the Gem. The instrument was presented to him while t e army was in winter quarters at Buriuuda Front,near Point of Rocks, on the classic and historic Appomattox River. It was while at Petersburg aud Richmond. The "boys in blue" would dost r around in groups to toil storits and sing songs, and that pastime would carry their minds back to the dear old home and Iov• d ones. As the singers had noth ing to accompany them, it was sug gested that a purse be raised for tlie purpose of purchasing a musical in strument This was accomplished, and rhe following riay a pass was given Mr. Eggert togo to City Point to procure the desired object. He purchased the ! guitar at a jewelry store, the proprie tors of which a few hours later, were ordered to vacate tho premises and fall to the rear as a bittle in front of Petersburg was imminent. On his trip for the guitar,after land ing from the transport and ascending a steep hill fronting on the river, the . first person Mr. Eggert met was his comrade in arms, Arthur Beaver, ODly sou of the late Thonia-Beaver,founder |of the handsome library of which Danville is no proud. Mr. Beaver greet'd Mr. Eggert, after which they strolled to a temporary (lining room and partook of an exc llent meal. At that time Mr. Beaver was interested in General Uraut's headquarters. At the conclusion of the sumptuous dinner, the fellow townsmen bade adieu to each other and separated. They did not meet again until the ; "cruel war was over," when they clasped hands at the home of their boyhood days. On the guitar which Mr. Eggert has been the owner since those dark and bloody days, is a handsome silver plate. Inscribed thereon are these words: "Presented to Richard W. Eggert by the members of Battery F, Secoud Pennsylvania Veteran Vol unteer Artillery, near Petersburg,Va., March 28, 18fio. " While speaking of this old time rel ic, and how he carnfj in pos ession of it, Mr. Eggert told cf the actions of the regiment of which he was a mem ber—how it was hotly engaged with the Confederates at Fort Harrisou, on the James river and during the dread fol raruage.two hundred of their rank and <ile were slain. Among the latter was the brigade Commander, Brigadier General Eornhnm, iu honor of whom the name of Fort Harrison was after ward changed to Burnham Fort. "The charge oil Fort Harrison,' continued Mr. Kggert," was a soocess, the enemy beiug coni;elled to fall hack toward Richmond. Then the regiment recrossed the Jame-f river, and were confronted with the Louisiana Tigers. It rem tine.l there uutil the fall of Petersburg and Richmond, the capital oft! o Confederite i-t tes. Shortly af ter tiiat General Lee surrendered to General Grant at Appomattox Court Hou-e, thus ending one of the most ! dreadful wars for supremacy in the history of any country, and through j which the Union was destined tore m.»in one and inseparable.
