DANVILLE'S PROSPECT FDR AH ARMY Among the'later bills approved by Governor Penuypacker in full was one appropriating $260,000 for the erection of Armories for the National Guard. This is of esjiecial interest to Dauville, as the building used for an Armory here has been repeatedly condemned by the inspectors. The project for the erection of Arm ories by the State is not a new one. Never until the present year,however, bad it so many ardent supporters in the General Assembly and among theoiti zeus thoughout the State, who have come to a realizing appreciation of the real and zealous service the Gaard of this State has given the Common weal tli Unfortunately but lialf the appropria tion lias been grauted that the framers of the bill had in mind, and on the proposed basis it means twenty-eight years before all the organizations can be provided with Armories instead of in fourteen years as originally design ed. The proposed basis for the expend iture of the available funds was ar ranged to give a sum e<]ual to $20,000 to each company and $30,000 to each troop and battery organization and it was further provided that where a regimental Armory was erected the money appropriated would be on ihe basis of that amount multiplied by the number of compauies to be quartered therein. Perhaps the most vital ijuestiou of interest to local guardsmen and incid entally to our citizens is the query as to where these first Armories are to he placed. As to these facts very little can be adduced that is beyoud the realm of conjecture. It is not unlike ly that the reports of the Brigade in spectors may develop some very alarm ing oonditions with reference to the advisability of still continuing certain organizations in tlie service and of course this is a matter which the head quarters must finally decide before any action could possibly be taken np by the Armory Commission. The compauies selected should have in the fullest measure all or as many as possible of the following merits: A company should If located in a community sufficiently large to be at all times capable of maintaining a company in a maximum membership. Has the locality pride and interest to donate either from tlie municipality or from the individual citizens suffici ent property of a suitable nature upon which an Armory may be erected? Is the present standing and that of the past three years sufficiently high to show that tlie organization is steadi ly improving rather than retrograd ing. Is the locality such as to guarantee prompt mobilization of the command and assurance that rapid transporta tion facilities may be afforded for any rendezvous within the State? Whether Danville in its relation to the Guard or whether Company F of the Twelfth Regiment possesses alt or any of the above merits are ijuustious that should not admit of much doubt. A company of the Guard has been maintained in Danville for many Tears It has done excellent service when called out and what deficiencies it has shown could alwavs be accounted for on the ground of defective quarters and poor facilities for drilling. The Armory here was strongly con demned by Brigade Inspector Major Millar iu 1904 It Is too small for drill ing. a central pillar making two of ttie movements utterly impossible. With every break op during the winter the water accumulates iu the cellar ex tinguishing the fires and making it impossible to warm the Armory for weeks. The water even risea into the Armory, causing the floor boards to warp making the floor unfit for drills, which last year had to be suspended for weeks. The building is damp, ren dering >t necessary togo over the rifles every week with a thorough cleaning to prevent them from rust ing Under the circumstances it would seem that if justice enters into it at all and our citizens act liberally as is required Danville's chances ought to be pretty good for receiving an Arm ory among the first. STRUCK BV IK INN MR Thomas R. Evaus, Front street, met with an acoideui while staudiug on the tiolley track iu front of Boat's un dertaking establishment. East Market street, about five o'clock last evening, as a result ot which for awhile Ins condition seemed exceedingly critical. Several employes with iron ban, were engaged 111 turning the rails. They were working on several joints that wore bolted together. The weight was heavy an J the force exerted on the bars in the hands of the workmen was iu proportion. While the men were tugging away at their work Mr. Evans ventured too close and stood watching them Just at that juncture the bar slipped out of the hands ot one of the men and owing to the weight at the other end flew back with terrific force striking Mr. Evans iu the legion of the heart and stomach. It was a well defined solar plexus blow and the man fell over as if dead. He was picked up, carried into the furniture store and there placed on a cot. Dr. Wintersteen was instantly called, and pending his arrival such remedies as were at hand weie quickly applied. When Dr. Wintersteen arriv ed he found ttie patient still under 11 ie influence ot the shock, the heait ac tiou being especially bad. Stimulants were administered, a'ter which the man was removed to his home. Later the effects of the shock wore off and last night Dr. Winter steen stated that lie saw no ovideuce of internal injury and everything was favorable for full recovery. A Pair of Blackmailers. A man and a woman who work a "get rich quick" scheme of their own may visit Danville soon. The couple visited Wilkesbarre last week and it is estimated that during the four days of the Foresters' convention there, they must have cleared in the neighborhood of $600.00. Their scheme is a very bold form ot blackmail, and it has come to the knowledge of the police who are com piling evidence iu order to proceed against the pair, who are Known. The system of the crooked p»ir is | somewhat as follows: They *o to a good hotel, registering as man and wife; always chosing a 1 hotel iu which there are a number of guests,which was easy duriug thecon ! vention when all the public houses were crowded. After having been at the hotel a short time the man would make the acquaintance of some ot the other guests,making himself as agreeable as possible. He would then introduce acquaint ances to his wife, who would always appear to be very much pleased to meet the frieud of her dear husband. Soon afterward the two men would become engaged in a game of pool or billiards during which lie would re ceive a telegram, calling him in sud den emergency to Scr»nton. The game would be immediately stopped, and the crook, handing the message to his friend would ast oi him to give it to his wife aud explain to her that he had no time for fare wells, sayiug that he would return in the morning. The friend would take the telegram and would se»rch for the wife, but he would find her ont walking so lie would go aboot his busiuess until evening, when he would find out at what spot the woman was rooming aud would then goto tier room with the message. I Knocking at the door he would be iuvited to enter, and,after a few min utes of conversation, when he would be preparing to leave, he would be I confronted by the husband, who would i say that he had been able unexpected ly to return from Scrantou that even- I J I ing, aud he would appear to he very angry aud horrified and would want to kill the frieud. Then he would threaten arrest, the woman backing op his charges, but i would agree to settle for a certain sum. The victim then generally paid over an amount ranging from SSO to |2OO iu order to avert scandal, aud the loving couple would depart to anoth er hotel, where they would fleece a new victim. One man, who is a stranger, is known to have paid over |'2oo, and others have paid various sums,although none less than SSO. WOMEN WHO WORK Need Strong, Vigorous Nerves.

TO lAffIFACTOi OBf BATTERIES Developments have occurred in man ufacturing circles during the last few days in the light of which it does not seem improbable that Danville may have a new industrv. William Roche of New York, manu facturer of the Standard l>ry Mattery, together with his manager, T. A. Casoy. has just paid Danville a visit, Mr. Roche returning home Saturday and Mr. Ca-ey yesterday afternoon. The two gentlemen have interested themselves in the organization of a ne.v Company for the manufacture of the Rempe self-winding clock. While in this oily they investigated the vacant buildings of the Bessemer Steel plant,oue or more of which they find well adapted to the manufacture of their commodity. The Standard Dry Battery is used in the mauufact ur3 of the Rempe clock and that iu it self is a reason why Mr. Roche would like to locate his factorv in Danville. There are however, reasons that influence hiin, snob as Danville's fav orable location, its proximity to coal and its excellent shipping facilties to say nothing of the town's desirability as a place of rrsideuce. Mr. Roche be | ing interested in the organization of the mw company it is not uulikely that the manufacture of the Rempe clock and the Stand ird Dry Hattery used may be consolidate I. A great atliont t of bulky material enters into the manufacture of the dry battery, while th" principal part of the product is disposed of In New York City. Tin item of freight, therefore, beootnes a matter of .erious considera tion. Although things look very fav orable for a new industry nothing will be done toward locating here until i Mr. Roche ha» taken up the matter of freight with the D L. & W. Railroad Company.

The explosive which cansed such dreadful results iu the wreck at South Harrisburg early Thursday morning, passed through Sunburvon Wednesday last. It was manufactured by the Key stone Powder company of Emporium. There were four hundred fifty pound boxes in the car and it was consigned to Contractor Kerhough. of Columbia. It is likely that a considerable por tion of the investigation of the Penn sylvania Railroad authorities into the causes of the Harrisburg wreck, and the consequent loss of life and injury to 150 persons, will be directed to the conveyance and handling of dynamite aud other explosives. It has befn stat ed that the awful disaster may result in the company issuing orders not to carry in the future, explosives of this kind, except under extraordinary cir cumstances. From statements made it is estimat ed that the investigation will result in the material changing of the meth ods of packing. President Baer of the Reading, sees the importance of mak ing a radical change, and lias so in structed his subordinates. He has suggested the building ot a special car or cars, with padded sides and other ways of reducing concussion to a minimum for the transportation of explosive s. The D. L & W. Kail road absolute ly refuse-, to allow dynamite or other explosives on its lines. To this rule there is positively 110 exception. Oili er railroads, however, carry it because they say they are obliged to. being common carriers. Five years ago there was a bad freight wreck ou the Lack awanna's Buffalo division. A greater part of a small town was wrecked by the explosion of three cars of dynamite and a number of opera tives lost their lives. That was a les son for the Lackawauna Company. It has heeded the lesson and the officials assert that no amount of profits from hauling dangerous explosives atone for the great risk aud responsibility entail ed. Elmer E. Kr.jde, president of Enter prise High Explosive Company of Philadelphia, who in the course of long experience has shipped 10,000,000 pounds of dynamite without any ac cident during transportation,says that, as far as he understands the catas trophe at Hari isburg, it was similar to that of I,o"u r (»ap, on tin Read lug, about twelve years ago, when a railroad wreck caught fire The only other instance of explosion of dynamite during transportation, as he remembers, was at Nanticoke, six years ago. There th" accident was caused by the breaking into two parts of the traiu carving the dynamite and the running of the rear into the fore part with sufficient force to generate sparks.

Owing to the strong affection existing be tween pastor and people the services were impressive and of a very touch ing character,the members being deep ly moved by the remarks of their past or aud over the thought of their sepa ration and loss. Taking as his text,h irst Thess. fourth chapter, first verse, the pastor dwelt upon the pleasant relations existing; the advance that had been made, with God's blessing,along all of church work, aud in teuder. touching words, exhorted them to still more aud more abound iu good works. In connection with his remarks Rev. Limbert gave some interesting sta tistics of his five years pastorate, eauh year showing a steady gain aud the last year being by tar the best of all. During this period there were 155 ad ditions to the church; 74 dismissed.

The old frame dwelling house in Washiugtouville on the West side of Water street, for many years the prop erty of Mrs. Fanny Heddens, aud known a£ one of the oldest buildings of tin town, is being demolished to make room for another structure. The house was oue of the landmarks of the town, supposed to be at least one huudred years old. It had become very ramshackle and hoary aud began to seem out of place among the more modern aud the new dwellings, which had grown up around it. The old hoase was constructed after the rude methods of a hundred years agi.the timbers and all the woodwork being roughly worked out by hand. Washiugtouville is an ancient s-ttle ment and these old landmarks are view - ed by the residents with a feeling akin to pride. The town, however, like | other places begins to reflect the gen eral progress of the times. A number of spick and span new Htiusos or houses repainted having the appearance of be ing new are seen on every street. Only a few landmarks remain, which link the present with the early put of the last century. The old house being town down was purchased by Kred Yerg, who will erect a modern dwelliug ou the site.

HORSES BENT ON RUNNING AWAY A team of sorrel colts belonging to Mrs. Hoffman, of lie tr Washington ville, ran away i:i town Saturday af ternoon. The horses, attached t') a spring wagon, first attracted attention going up Mill street. They were evidently beyond the control of the driver, a young man of some twenty years, and went plunging along at a rapid rate. Arriving at tlie intersection of Mar ket street where a large pile of sand anil other material needed in street ptvmg blocks the way the horses were stopped. The wagon was turned around and alter examining the harness an other start was made.
