MONTOUR AMERICAN FRANK C. ANGLE. Proprietor. Danville. Pa., Har. iO. IWS. MINOR MATTERS i INTEREST Cbatles Battagiia, the well known Italian Laboi Ageut, accompanied by 8. Alimena, of Hazl> ton, was in this city vestetday. Mr. Alimena, who is ■ representative of V. Casazza& Bro , Importers of Italian and Kreu ih Pro dace. New York, will in the future serve in tlie capacity of commissary for Mr. Battagiia, who is already be ginning to marshal his sea'tered forces of Ittlians and is preparing for an ac tive campaign in the greit 8' Id of in dustry kite coming seasou. Mr. Bat tagl a iias over one hundred Italians with him in Berwick. In a ronple of days' notice, lie says, In coul t 1 »y his hands on two hundred more, whil•> by an extraordinary effort, if inductnal conditions warranted it, he could muster up five hundred men- Mr. Bat tagiia has his eye ou several prospec tive operations during »he coming sum mer, which will employ Italians by li e handrel. One of these is the Dan ville and Sunbury El ctric railway and th* other a proposition to buil i a trol ley line from Sliamokin to Snnbury. It is not generally known that there ■re some 45,000 Ittlians in this part of the Stat , within a radius of fifty or sixty miles of Scrauton Some of these people iauk w> 11 in education and cul ture an example being afforded by Mr. Ailcueua, who accotnpaiiie I Mr. Bat tagiia yester lay, this gentleman speak ing English fluently and being widely informed ou the events of tlie day. W. A. Hell T, of the Danville and Sonburv Trolley Company is showing the peoj le of this loo»li y something entirely new in fauc> and up-to-date vehicles. This is a "station wagon," which arrived in L>auv;ll3 Tuesday night and will appear on the streets in due time. "Station Wagon*' is a very oomuiouplace term and to the unin itiated conveys no adequate idea of what a wagon of this kind is like. The vehicle is intended for fam ily use and is ornate and luxurious in the extreme. Its exact style was never before steu in Danville. A large sur face of plate glass appearing at each aide, back and front. The carriage contains one seat in the enclosed portion and another for two persons iu the fro t wh'<re the driver will sit. It is so arranged that the partition can be removed and the vehicle thrown in to one of two seats. Both painting and upholstering are finished in maroon. It is equipped wi'.h speaking tube,per fume case, mirror and clock It is made with half-Collins axle and every clip is hand forged. No attempt will be made to describe the carnage fully, as it will appear ou the street frequent ly and people will be permitted to judge for themselves. J. W. Gerhard of Allentowu manufactured the carri age. It was purchased through Harry Dieter. The river is now clear of ice from the bridge down nearly as far as the bend, the large ar»a of clear water is quite a welcome sigiLatid along with tb« landscape now generally bare of •now, suggests the uear approach of Bpring. All along the North Branch jM>-terday the ica was moving in spots but there was nothing to iudicate how •oou the fiual break-up might occur. |False Step Causes Death. Johu Derr, a prominent resident of McE weusville, accidentally shot him self in the abdomen Tuesday,and died about an hoar after the accident. He was leaving t' e houfe to shoot sparrow*,when lie slipped on the steps and fell. The gun was discharged, io flirting a moital wound. A colony of sparrows had taken up their residence near ttie Derr home re cently and had become v.-ry annoying. Tuesday morning, shorily before ten o'clock, Mr. Derr concluded to scare them away if possible. He >-ecuied a breach-loading shot gun and started for the yard. As he was going down the step his foot caught and he fell, the gun striking iu surli a position that the cartridge was exploded and the couteuts entered Mr. Derr's abdo men. His wife and Mr. Stahl were at trae'e I by the noise, and were both at bis side in a minute He was con scious when tl ey reached him, and he spoke a few words, bnt a moment lat er became unconscious Dr. Derr wa- at once summoned,but he immediately realized the serious ness of the wound. Everything possi ble was done to save the nntortuuate man's life but he died at 11 o'clock. He forty-five years of age and is survived by his wife. Death Occurred lu^Bloomsbury. After an illness of only a few days Mrs. Martha J. Neville, of Danville, died while on a visit with her broth er, Lafayette Nevillo, at Bloomsburg. The decease 1 was stricken ou Mon day, Marcii tith.but linge>ed until yes terday afternoon when death came to her relief. She was fifty-two years of age. She was the widow of Charles Neville, and until recently resided on Montour Row, and was well known throughout town One son, Abram Neville, No. 48 Montour Row,survives. The funeral will take place Saturday afternoon at 2 p. in.from the residence of Lafayette Neville, West Ninth street, 800 u-<burg. Interment will take place in cermtery Birthday Party.

Sergeant at Arms Smith to whose courtesy the AMERICAN represent ative is indebted for much valuable information relative to th>i subject in hand, stated that it is a fact quite noteworthy that the present Legisla ture is impressed as no previous Leg islature has bnon with the deplorable state of affairs due to overcrowding in the several hospitals as well a« the necessity ou the part of the State of adopting a liberal policy in dealing with these institutions. The senti ment, he said, is so marked iu its ua ture that he feels sur« that relief is in sight at least for the Hospital at Dan ville, where conditions seem to be the worst. JAt the Hospital Friday none of the Legislative party were disposed to couceal their seutimeuts. They ex ptessed surprise both at the i tiadequate accommodations and the general lack of facilities. They asked a greit num ber of searching questions and seemed amazed at the true state of affairs. The incouveuience of gettiug coal to the institution impressed them most and they will uo doubt favor to the man the appropriation for an electric power and light plant where coal w be easy of access. They also critcizeid the use of the boilers installed some twenty years ago and which taking the reooguized life of a boiler into con sideiaiioti they now considered as hav ng passed the limit of 6afety. In the matter of fire-escapes, too, they con ider the Hospital woefuliy deficient. Their long tour throughout the in stitution, taking In the male and fe male sides as well as the infirmary was accompanied by the usual scenes and incideuts.amosing and pathetic by turns as tho e from the outside world come in contact with the insane, which were new aud a source of much in terest to many in the delegation. It was nearly one o'clock when a tour of the buildings was completed At that hour dinner was served to the Legislative party and Trustees The dinner aud what was served at the Hospital wero the only refreshments, with all that is impliel by that term, that was furnished at the public ex pense. As one cf the members aver red the "two Pullmaus were barren of all provender, a few saudwiohes being the limit." Continuing tho gentleman said: "Junketers will not get any more refreshments from the State. Sammy Pennypacker won't stand for it." How'B This ?

Tlie l.nrg'-m of the llprr t niullj, I.t». tn M or Killiirt—The Alunkitn flail Muour lluvr (he (Irralril Antlers. The Cow HIIU Her I ngaiulr I alt. Now and then In wanderings through j the mountain and forest one comes up ; on a gigantic blackish brown deer j which by reason of the great length of j Its yellowish gruy legs stands higher j than a tall horse. It. is clothed in eonrse, bristly hair, longest on the neck i and shoulders, and It has a rather ugly ! overhanging nose which distinguishes j It at once from all other kinds of deer. I From the throat of the male hangs a | long hair covered appendage known as tlie "bell," and In the fall and winter ! he has also a pair of wldespreadlng j antlers, very heavy and much flattened or "plauiated." He stalks tho forest through undergrowth and over fallen trunks like a king of giants, or, If : alarmed, he speeds away at an arnaz lugly swift swinging trot and with a crashing which resembles the sound of falling trees. Such Is the moose, the ; largest of all deer, living or extinct. I The moose Is chiefly an animal of the northern woods, the southern limit of ' its range being the head of Green riv ! er, Wyoming. It is also found in i uortbern Maine, New Brunswick, ' southern Canada. Idaho, British Colum bia, Alberta, Athabasca, Yukou and Alaska. It Is strictly a dweller of the ; forest, seldom venturing to treeless plains. It lives for the most part by browsing 011 the leaves, twigs and bark of trees, particularly young trees. In order to reach the tops of tall saplings I the moose rears up against them, strad 1 dllng tliem with bis long legs and lit erally riding them down. He Is fond est of birch, hemlock, alder, aspen, wil low and maple He also eats mosses ! and lichens. In May the "cow," as the female moose Is called, gives birth to a long legged, ungainly, tawuy colored calf. ! to protect which the mother will tight i any woodland creature to the death. ; She has 110 antlers, but she can use her great sharp hoofs with the skill of a prize fighter and has been known to pound to death a large black hear and i fairly trample his body into the ground. The calf stays with its moth er for two or three years, or until he ! wanders off to seek a mate for him self. One day last summer I came sud j denly upon a cow moose standing knee ! deep In a shallow pond, while from 1 beneath her neck her grotesque looking calf peered out at me with eyes wide open, us if with astonishment. I hur ried home and returned with a camera, but when I reached the spot thev wero gone. Like all American deer, tho "bull" moose sheds and renews his antlers every year. They become full grown, hard aud sharp about the Ist of Octo ber, the beginning of the breeding sea son. At this time of year the bulls are very savage and not only fight furious ly among themselves, hut are apt to attack anything or anybody who comes iu their way. The call of the bull is a long drawn bawl with several loud grunts at the end. If there is 11 cow within bearing she will answer with 11 low cry, and the bull will couie forward to nip«»t her. Hunters often take advantage of this fact and attract the bull by an Imitation of the call of the cow, exe cuted on a cone shaped liorn made of birch bark. Lying concealed ou the bank of u lake or stream, they give out the call, and when the bull comes within range they shoot him. But as this trick is usually played at night and as the bull sometimes in", er gives any warning of his coming until he Is almost on the spot the sport Is apt to be dangerous. The bull at such a time is iu no mood to be trifled with, and unless the hunter Is cool headed and a good shot the moose is not only willing but very able to kill him and a dozen Jlke him if they happen to be on the spot. Probably the largest moose of which there is reliable record was shot by Carl Runglus, the animal painter. In New Brunswick in 1001. This great beast stood seven feet high at the shoulders, and the length of its head and body together was nine feet seven Inches. Tlie Alaskan moose have the largest antlers, and one pair from an animal shot ou the Kenai peninsula has a spread of seventy-eight and a half Inches and has thirty-four points. With the dry skull to which they are attached these antlers weigh ninety three and a quarter pounds, a weight which nothing but an animal of gigan tic strength could carry at top speed over the roughest ground and through thickly wooded country. In the winter, when the snow is deep, the moose, sometimes several families together, will gather in a certain sec tion of woodland and be breaking out paths for themselves over a space of perhaps several acres from what Is known as a "yard," where, if not dis turbed, they may stay for weeks to gether. But tlie moose is able to travel well at all seasons, and even In deep snow his long legs enable him to move at a pace which astonishes any hunter who tries to run him down on snow shoes. A wild, free life is tho only one on which a moose can live and thrive. In captivity it Is much less nervous than most deer and is dispose to be gentle and affectionate. But, as a rule, it will live but a short time, even though it gets tfie same food which it had in Its native woods. If may appear to relish Its food, tint it will grow to no great size and in a short time will probably die of inflammation of the stomach.

Wh> tilt* Mru Who M(» !l«-hi 11(1 the Wlrkcl Muftt ll«» n l>ooil J n il k of tlnniMu Nmurc-ilif \rl of ''Drfin- Ing" H l.fght llwuNf. To tlit* average theater goer the man who sits behind the wicket in the box office and sells tickets seems to have one of the sinecures of earth. True, he Lhs to answer many f<»o! questions and (leu I with many fool persons who are often ugly because others with more foresight have picked up early all the go>Hi seats. He has to handle diplo matically the woman who wants dollar Seats for 7< r > cents and with the other fellow who wants "first row, center," after the play has begun and that has been sold for a week ahead. But all these things seem but his share of the minor ills of earth. Outside of them apparently his Job Is what Is generally known as a "snap." But the man In the box office has otl things to do besides sell tickets. True, that is where he comes in con tact with the general public, anil that Is all that Is usually thought about his duties. But at the same time he Is serving the public he Is working for two masters behind the scenes, the proprietor of the house and the mana ger of the attraction, and he must serve them equally, while their inter ests sometimes conflict sharply- Fur thermore. he must serve them as against the public If need there be. and It keeps him hustling to hold his Job to do It too. The mau behind the wicket is a good man If he can make you buy a seat that costs you more than you Intended to Invest to see that particular "show" —all attractions in a playhouse are "shows" In the parlance, be they opera, comedy or vaudeville. Now. most men thiuk they know what they are going to get when they visit s theater, and they especially have the price tlxed in fclielr minds. Perhaps, psychologically speaking, they are stronger minded than the house treasurer. Then they do get what they want, and he never questions It But the average man is not. The treasurer Is trained In ticket selling it is his dally routine, while It Is on occasional act on the man's part. Hence he Is fortified for the pub lie, and the latter Is not for him, and so when the people step up, especially If it Is rather late and there is some thing of a rush, a clever ticket man can easily get tlie extra price out of them for a hixber selling seat. How does he do It? Largely by the power of suggestion. lie implies that you want It, for Instance, when you go up. In other words, he puts the ques tion as to what priced seat by asking you about the higher ones before he mentions the lower ones, and when he does refer to the latter, at your sugges tion, he does it rather apologetically. He has the higher rate tickets In his band, and If you do not take them he reaches to the rack for the others, and all the time the line Is waiting, those back of you are scowling, If not mak ing remarks, and every one within ear shot of the window knows that you have refused the higher seats for the lower priced ones. This Is embarrass ing. Especially Is It so if a girl is with you, waltiug Just outside the rati that separates the mob from the line, and the chances are 10 to 1 that you will take the cue. Involuntarily, and pay a quarter more, when you had no inten tlon of doing so when you approached the clover man in the box That Is one way. It doesn't require any falsehood It does require a good knowledge of human nature. Some men wouldn't "stand for" that. They would j !>e offended, and it might hurt the house. That Is for the treasurer to beware. 110 must "size up" his cus tomers and act accordingly. There Is a great irnln In time In sell ing without n chart. A man will then step up and ask for a "good seat" about s certain place. Running through his lists, the seller finds him something very near there, and he Is satisfied That one mau is finished In a few seconds. It would take minutes If the sheets w ere there. Time Is Im portant when the orchestra Is playing and the curtain about togo up. Still further, the absence of a chart enables the seller to "dress" his house, provided the sale Is light, and to keep out "singles" If It Is heavy. "Singles" are seats left alone when the adjoining pairs have been selected from a chart. "Singles" are hard to sell because very few persons attend a theater alone. Al most all seats are sold In pairs. A treasurer with a bnnch of "singles" on his hands, even with a house threaten lng to sell out. Is "up against It,"for often he will lose Bales that would have meant capacity but for the fact that he canuot place a couple In ad Joining seats, though he may have sev eral odd ones left "Dressing" a house is the avoidance of this condition In one sense, but it applies to light houses generally. When a show Is not doing well it is up to the box office to make the house look full even though li be only partly solid. He does this by scattering the crowd. Instead of selling a section solid and leaving adjoin ig sections vacant he sells a few her-', a few there, und thus j the empty spaces are not concentrated, j Men usually dress a house from the , center out. They will sell a good part j of the center section, scattering, and then will work out on the left and light. This is because seats on the ex treme edge of the house are not so good, and people expect them to be va cant except In a heavy house anyhow j and do not notice thei# so soon He knows his house like a book, and be | knows early In the day whether or not , he will have a crowd. Hence he acts accordingly.—Kansas <'lty Journal Varlone Suurrri of Stilt. Silkworms ate not the sole source of the production of silk.
