ELECTRICIAN
The Borough Coi bo 1 Friday evi nin*

who, was equipped with the approved
references auJ this was S H. Jones,

Danville for sev< ral mouths past.
On motion of Mr. Goeser, seconded
by Mr Fenstermaoher, it was decided

Iv in the Fourth Wanl over the re
location of the lights by the Boiocg i
The Light Committee, protests that
in placing lights it has acted to the
very best of its judgment with the
means at hand. After tin plant is in
operation if it can be demonstrated
that the arrangement can bo improve i
on the lights can be re-located
In this connection Mr. Reifsnyder
stated tint Council is being unmerci
fully and very unjustly criticized by

if DECE ra
Danville Grange, No. 57, held its
regular meeting Saturday afternoon at
the home of Aaron (J. Mauser, Cooper
township The attendance was quite
good. In addition to this it is stated
that the membership of the grange is
steadily increasing and that a deep in
terest is manifested in every depait
ment ot the work.
On Saturday the interest centered in
a discus-ion of the pure food bill be
fore the Legislature introduced by
Representative Hitchcock of Tioga
county.
The pure lood act of 1 S9o states that
ail article of food shall be regarded as
adulterated if it is "colored," coated
powdered, or polished, whereby in
feriority is concealed, or if it is by
any means made to appear better or of
greater value than it otherwise would
be. If this law was strictly enforced
and all harmless coloring matter ex
cluded from butter, the farm rs b -
lieve, it would seriou-ly affect the
dairy interest of the state and they are
therefore desirous that an ameudment
Ih made to the Pure Foo I Act of 189 5
i permitting the use of harmless color
i itig in butter.
It was much to the surprise of farm
ers on Saturday when in the newspap
ers they read that a new pure fool bill
had been preseuted to the Legislature,
which provides iu effVct that if food
is not uuwhohsome as changed iu any
of the ways de-cribed in the Act of
1895. (by coloririß, coating, polishing,
&c.,) it shall not be considered unlaw
ful.
This, it is true, was all the farm ts
wanted as regarded genuine butter,
but it did not take them long to see
that it provided an avenue by which
oleomarg»riu) aud similar products
could be thrown on the matket in this
state. They regard the Act therefore
as a measure antagonistic to the dairy
interest and one that should be bitter
ly fought.
Danville Grange, No. 57, therefore
at its meeting Saturday adopted sweep
ing resolutions expressing its an
tagonism to the Act. Similar action
lias been or will be taken by otht r
Granges of the State
The nest regular meeting of Dan
ville Grange will be held on Saturday,
March 11th.

STEPHEN MURPHY'S
LONG ENLISTMENT
Stephen O. Murphy, son of Mr. ami
Mrs. Dennis Murphy,of Riverside,has
returned home after a long p riod of
enlistment in the government service.
Mr. Marphy's several enlistments
covered a period of over five years. He
first lefr home as a member of Com
pany F, 12th Regiment, I'. V. I .serv
ing through the whole Spanish-Ameri
can War. Ou August 9, 1899 he en
listed in tfie United .States Marine
Corps. He was sent to the League Is
land Navy Yard and assigned to the
U. S. S. Yankee training ship. He
was transferred to the Battleship In
diana and from thence to the Ounbiat
Michigan, winch made a tour of the
great lakes, looking after American
interests along the border. This trip
was by no means the least interesting
and instructive of the several long
cruises accompanied by our young
townsman.
From ttie Miohigao Mr Murphy was
transfer.ed to the U. S. Flagship In
diana,which made a cruise to the
In lies, stopping on the voyage at Sau
Domingo. It was during the insurgent
uprising last winter an 1 while there
.Mr. Murphy was one of a squad of
Marine Corps lauded to protect the
American consul.
On the return voyage from the West
Indies the ludiana stopped at the Is
thmus of Panama where an officer was
lauded to look after the interest of the
United States in connection with the
inter oceanic canal.
Arriviug at the New York Navy
Y »rd last spring Mr. Murphy was suit
to the St. Louis Exposition where dur
ing the summer he was statioued at
the Government Building. He was dis
charged August 4, 1904 as first ser
geant.
Mr. Marphy visited many very in
teresting corners of the world during
his enlistment and he mad' the most
of his opportunities. His mind is well
stored with valuable data, while on
his memory are impressed many beauti
ful pictures strange to everyday life
which will beguile mauy au idle hour
in the long years that are to come.
The young man talks most entertain
ingly of his experiences. He sees noth
ing to regret in the long years spent
in Uncle Sam's service, but expresses
no desire to return to the service.
He will probably resume life among
his old associates in Danville.

New Feat in Telegraphy.
The fact i-> not generally known that
the trunk lines of tl e United Tele
phone and Telegraph Company be
tween this city and Portsville and Dan
ville and Shaiiiokiu and other points
tre being used simultaneously for tele
phoning and transmitting messages by
teleg' aph.
The tact that wires coold be emplov- '
ed in this dual capacity is a reoeut
d s overy. During the past six months,
ho.v ver, the same wires oi a few of
tli" railrotd lines have been used for
totu telegraphing and telephoning. As
» telephone line, however, the United
is a uoig the pioneers in adopting the
new method.
The trunk line between Danville
and Santinry ami btitvveu D.tuville
Mild Shainokin and ou lo Pottsvillf are
u -ed for both telephoning and tele
graphing. Between the hoars of !t a. !
m.and 3 p. m. each day the wires be- j
tweeu Dwiville and Po tsville, «*N|»^ci- !
ally, are hot with tpli messag* g,
while during the came hoars the tele
phones are operating and the people
are talking over the wire uucouacious
of the double manner in which ttie
line is employed. Iu either capacity
the wire works to perfection.
B. V. Deuk & Company, Brokers, I
of New York,who have offices at Dan
vilie, Shauiokio, Pottsville and other j
places in telegraphing ose the wire of j
the United Telephone and Telegraph |
Company. Between New York and !
Pottsville the Hrokers use the Postal j
Telegraph.
In a short time the Uuited Telephone
atid Telegraph Co upauy expects to
able to telegraph directly to Philadel- I
phia over its trunk lines.
The electrical connection required ■
for using a line for telegraphing and
telephoning simultaneously is in- j
tricate, bat the ose of the wire in this i
; way is not expensive and bnsiuess can I
|be done at lo~n ontlay than where a

MARCH PREDICTIONS
OF PROPHET HICKS
Rev. Ira Hick ,the weather prophet,
who foretold the January and Kel •
ruary blizzards, makes the following
predictions for-Ma rob :
The first marked disturbances for
March will be central on tlio 3rd, 4th
and sth, with riiu and high winds on
and touching the srh, ending in snow
storms over much of the country to the
northward. The 15th to the 17th will
bring a marked storm period,culminat
ing in risinK temperature and general
storm conditions,ending in wide areas
ot raiu aud snow. Another high baro
t meter aud March cold wave may sud
denly slip in from the northwest from
about the 17th to the 19th, but it will
give way as suddenly as it came, aud
the most general and violent storm
conditions of the month will appear
during the storm period immediately
following.
The storm period is from the 19th to
the 24th, being at its center on the
'2lst. This is a storm period that every
student reasonably familiar with our
forecasts will watch with much in
terest. The indication are that tropical
storms an l hurricanes will reach the
extreme parts of our south country
about the 19th to 22d, notably oti anil
touching the 21st, and th»t. r;»iu and
high winds turning to snow aud very
cold for the season, will meet the
tropical, equatorial storms from the
northwest. A severe March blizzard
over much of the country northward
is among the probabilities at this
period.
A reactionary storm period will be
ccn;ril oi the 27Jh, 28th and 29th. At
this time the temperature will rise
decidedly aud general storms ot rain
and wind, turning to snow in the
north, will pass eastwarily across the
country,all followed by another decid
ed rise ot the barometer, northwester
ly winds and much colder.
2 The public should keep in mind the
possibility of disa-trous flcods during
the mouth of March. Frozen streams
aud rivers that do not break up in Feb
ruary will bring absolute danger to all
localities not eutiielv above the na-li
of such danger. The mouth will not
bring a maximum of cold, hut much
precipitation in the form of rain,'l jet
or snow will occur, with disagreeable j
fluctuations of temperature, an un
steady state of the barometer and some
fn rious storms.

Mrs Sherwood retired Saturday
night in her usual health. On arising
yesterday morning she complained of
cramp, but did not seem to be serious
ly ill. She was in the act of descend
ing the stairs when her husband heard
a loud noise and rushing to the hall
found her lying at the foot of the
-tairs. She expired almost immediate
ly. An examination revealed a depres
sion of the top of the head and anoth
er on the forehead, showing that her
skull was fractured. It is believed that
death was due wholly to the fall, which
seems to have been from the top to
the bottom of the stairs, although an
attack of illness may have caused her
to fall.
The deceased was 69 years of age.
Her maiden name was Miss Ellen
Kemp and her home was in Pittsburg.
After her marriage she lived in Dan
ville until 1877 where her husband was
employed by the National Iron Com
pany. Leaviug Danville the family
moved to Berwick, where for the last
18 years Mr. Sherwood has been fore
man in the puddling department of the
American Car and Foundry Works.
Mrs. Sherwood was a member of the
Woman's Relief Corps,No 18<», of Ber
wick and was a beloved aud highly
esteemed resident. She is survived by
her husband and the following sons
and daughters: Thomas Sherwood,
Joseph Sherwood, Mrs. Thomas Lauer,
Mrs. Isaac Fowler, Mrs. William
Harry, aud Miss Sara Sherwood, of
Berwick; Benj-tmin Sherwood. Wil
mington,Del. ; aud Mrs. David Evans,
of Danville.
A Destructive Fire
To draw the fire out of a buru.or heal
a cut without leaving a scar, use De-
Witt's Witch Hazel Salve. A specific

DeWitt's Witch Haze' Salve in my
family for Piles, cuts aud burns. It is
the best salve on the market. Every
family should keep it on hand." Sold
