P- M ELECTRICAL DISPLAY FOR JULY FOURTH There is a sentiment abroad, in which one or wore of the Oouncilineii share, that the Borough should take some part in the preparations for tlie demonstration on Fourth of July. This, it is held, is eminently prop r, as the generally accepted idea is that the demonstration is gotten up as uincli to signalize the completion of munici pal improvements as to celebrate the Fourth of July. No lavish expenditure of pnbli c mouey is required. The Borough ill owning its own electrio light plant is verv fortunately situated and could contribute a verv novel and stiiking feature to the day's decorations with comparatively small cost. It is sug gested that the Borough make an elec trical display. An arch or structure of some other sort erected at the canal culvert, Mill street,and dwcorated with the stars and stripes and vari-colored electric light bulbs seems to meet the popular idea. This would be especial ly titling, as the electric light employ ed would come from the Borough's own plant, one of the municipal im provements being celebrated in the days demonstration. Of the various structures that might suggest themselves the arch would probably be the most appropriate for the spot. It is recalled that the ma terial used in the arch erected by the Friendship Fire Company in one of Danville's big days of the past was carefully stored away bv the owners with a view of Gliding use for it again in the future. The Friendship Fire Company is always progressive and full of public spirit and there is no doubt but that an arrangement could be effected whereby the Borough would be permitted to use the arch, which could be very easily reconstructed. It is hoped that our Borough Fath ers will take kindly to the suggestion aud see their way clear to thus assist iu the decorations. Whatever is done, however, will have to be done quick ly, as barely two weeks intervene be tween the present and Independence Day. New Safety Appliance. New safety regulations concerning the transportation and handling of ex plosives were put into effect on the Feniisylvania Railroad Monday as the result of the careful investigation of the snbject since the big wreck at South Harrisburg These new rules are contained in general notice No 174 A, which sup ersedes the regulations which have been iu force since September 25,1890. Importance of the new rules becomes doubly great since they probably will he takeu as the basis lor recommenda tions to the railroads of the country, which a special committee of the Am erican Railway Association will make at the fall convention Chief amoug the changes in old me thods aie: First, that explosives shall be carried only on fast freight trains of not more than thirty cars, two thirds of which shall b>i under air brakes. Second, that no high explos ives, containing more than sixty p»-r cent of nitroglycerine except gelatin dynamite, will be carried, and, third, that high explosives must be packed iu strong wood boxes made of lumber not less than a half inch HI thickness Explosives are putin six classes, with special rules governing the load iug, marking and transportation of each, packages being limited to one hundred pounds, so ihtt, should the need arise,one man could handle them. Carloads of explosives will be le ceivad only on Mondays and Thurs days, less than car load lots any day except Saturday. In making up trains, only one car loaded with explosives aud marked accordingly, will he put in each train. It shall be placed iti tie middle of the train with a box car at each end, but in no case closer to the locomotive than the distance of ten cars. Iu case of a wreck, the first duty of employes is to prevent tire. Before clearing up a wreck explosives are to be carefully removed to a place of saft ty. Only steel underframc box cars, equipped with air brakes and iu tirst class condition, so that no sparks can get inside, can be used. DANVILLE LOST FIRST IIMIE The local team lost tlie first name of the series with the Cuban Giants Mon ilav afternoon at DeWitt's I'ark. Tlie game was hotly contested from the start ami as hotli pitchers were in warm weather shape the hits came slow, and runs still slower. Sampson for the visitors allowed hut two hits and Met 'loud held the dark wonders down to eight hits win li sevei :ii t inn - resulted in runs. The audience was cjmposed of poo- I U> who know how the game should tin played, and the applause was lih eral for both teams. The visitors, always on the alert, gathere I in sev eral which looked like safe ones, and the home team seemed anxious to ox eel their opponents in thrilling plays. Logan, always in the gam *, knock ed one dow.i which everybody thought was a safe hit, thtowing his man out at tirst after which the applause was terrific. Too much cannot he said of the way all the players handled the hall in yesterday's game and the fact was again demonstrated that the locals always acquit themselves creditably w hen playing against a high grade club. The crowd was smaller than was ex pected but with favorable w.tither to day the attendance w ill no doubt he much larger. Following is the score: DANVILLK A. A R H. O. A E. Gosh.

The cans are ex P'Cted to arrive in a fnw days and will no doubt be installed bySaturdav night. It is very essential that the public should understand fully to what uses the garbage cans are to be put. It is not the intention that they are to be come receptacles for any of the waste and off all left over from the curb stone market, which is gathered up and hauled away bv men especially employed for that ta'k. They are to be used for other articles of diverse sorts such as circulars, newspapers, wrappers, peauut shells, banana peels, &c , which scatteieil about, help to make the streets look very untidy. It has been observed that even when the paved street has been thoroughly clean ed oil Satutday evening by Sunday morning it presents a very dirty ap pearence clue to the thoughtlessness of people in throwing everything they want to get rid of out upon the street It is necessary that people educate themselves up to the use of the garbage can, as they will lie given no choice in the matter and will be compelled to make use of them as directed. 'i he law recently enacted by the Legislat ure imposes a penalty for throwing articles of the sort enumerated above upon the street. Kven nails, sciews and the like, which often injure horses' feet, come in under the act and must lie kept oft tint street Whilo enforcing the act the Borough is not obliged to procure garbage cans ; | the measure has been merely adopted ! by Council in order to bring about habits of tidiness among tl.e | eople and assist in the observance of the law.

This is | roof that Americans are patriotic, but can we not prove our patriotism in some less costly and less deadly way? Much of the shooting and nio-t of the self-destruction is by children. With them patriotism doesn't count si much as having a jolly goor! time. Most of them do not understand ex cept in the vaguest way tlie historic significance of the day, and their en thusiasm is less of a tribute to Amer ica than to China. It was the lattei country that invented fire crackers Is it not worthy of consideration that if we do not soon have Fourth of July reform we shall soon come to know it as the Slaughter of the Innoc ents!'

FRANK ROCKER'S RAO INJURY Fiank lUieher, of Hunhury, son of Samuel Puolier, of Kiverside, a brake initii in the employ of the Pennsyl vania Railroad Company, Monday passed through the second railroad cident in a year, again .sustaining in jurii h of a very serious nature. Frank, who is an extra brakeman, Monday morning was assigned to duty in tlic U K Yard. About 15 o'clock in tlie afternoon he fell under the wheels, two cars |>nssing over him His lelt foot was crush'd, his collar bone was broken and he was lacerated and braised all over his bodv. He was taken to the Mary M fuck er Hospital for treatment. Miss Klizt betli Hurber.sister of ttie injured man. came up to South Danville froiu Smi liury on the 5:50 train. About C> :M o'clock she called op the ho-pital by 'phone to learn the particulars as to her brother's condition. Tli' amputation of the l«ft foot had then already been performed,the mem ber being taken oft at the instep. It was stat id by the hospital authorities that Frank's coudition was critical al though there was no immediate dang er ot any serious developments. He was conscious, although as above stat ed his collar bone was broken and he was nut and broisoil from Ilea l to foot. There i- also the probability of inter nal injuries, which may not develop mil il later Frank had an exceedingly close call at Georgetown hw- than a year ago, being hurled from the top of a house car. by the breaking of an air hose, and sustaining injuries as the result of which he hovered between life and death for some days.

PAVEMENT AT THE COURT HOUSE The matter of sidewalk repairs at the Court Mouse was taken lip at tho meeting of tlm County Commissioners on Saturday. Repairs will iiave to he made to conform with llie relocation ot the curb as has boen require 1 all along Mill street and the work will have to be done promptly, too, it any effort i» to be made to comply with the order sent out by the Borough Council that pavements bo repaired he to ie the Fourth of July. No definite action was taken by the County Commissioners. Many persons think tlmie should he a concrete pave ment in front of the Court House,along with massive concrete steps leading to the entrance. Since a general tearing up is necessary there seems to he no reason why the work should not he doue l ightly and improvements install ed that will add to the appearance of the building. The Court House archi te.cturallr is reallv a fine building and claim is made that it is worthy of a better pavemeut thau the wholly out of-date patchwork of flagstones which covers th sidewalk at present. The expense of concrete work would he materially reduced by the proceeds realized troiu the sale of the flag stones and the stones used in the con struction of the steps at. present, the last named especially being valuable.

We have published this fact before, but thorn are seme who. it seems,have not learned the fact or else think thev can slip in a letter to a friend by drop | ping it into bis letter box, their line of reasoning probably being that as j the lett» r need not be handled by any | government official, there need bo no ! postage paid on it. Hut those boxes are erected under the protecting care of government and thus form part of the post office department, although j paid for hv the Individual, and, there fore, nothing can IM permitted to pass through them without postage being ' paid thereon. Carriers, who are expected to be ob liging and accommodating, have no choice in the matter, as their instruc tions are imperative,to lilt every piece of mailable matter found in a box, for which there is not provision for post age, and if the postage is not forth coming in a specified time the missive is sent to the Dead Letter Office.

INN MIS ANNUAL PICNIC The picnic season WHS opeut IL Sat urday by tl<e annual outing of the Iron Moulders' Union ol Danville ami late bad decreed that, the first picnic of the season in point of attendance, weather conditions and in full measure of harmless enjoyment should lie a well rounded and unqualified sua ess. Tl • stov works ill all departments was shut down, all the employes taking a day oft. The greater number probably joined the moulders at DeWitt's Park. The day was quite warm, which made the cool breezes which at all times play through the Park all the mora en joyable. The entire day,although there were fully eight huudred persons on the grounds, was marked with the utter absence of accident or occur rence of any soit to mar the pleasure. The local lodge of moulders, Mime seventy stiong, headed by the Wash ington drum corps,about 10:30 o'clock marched to the park in a body. A general invitation had been tendered to the public aud the crowd soon follow ed. About 110011 the Park presented a pretty scene. Kach family with speci al fiiends invited, or two or more families grouped together occupied the innumerable tables scattered about the grove. It was evident from the scores of well filled baskets taken to the Park and by the time spent around the tables that dinner was by no means the least important feature of the day In the afternoon dancing began, which continued until late Saturday evening, the Iron Moulders and th ir friends being the first to enjoy the large dancing pavilion. In addition to the dancing the swings and other similar devices for entertaining the younger element were kept moving. Next to dancing, however, the merry go-round was the attraction and its capacity, big as it is,was sorely taxed to accommodate the waiting crowd. The game of base ball scheduled be tween the Danville Club and Wilkes- Harre could not be pulled off owing to the non-arrival of the Wilkes-Barre team. A game of base ball was play el between the Danville A A and tne Stove Moulders' team. In order to add to the interest of the game the two battelies were exchanged. Edgar and McCloud of the Danville A. A. went to the Stove Moulders and Walk er and Mint/.ir of the Stove Works played with the A. A. The latter team won out on a small margin Pen Times Easier.

The subject of school athletics is at tracting much attention of late, both in Pennsylvania and New York, since it has been found that the health of the public school children in cities is detective far beyond anything the in spectors had anticipated. Much of this weakness is traced to lack of fresh air and facilities for active exercise, and so pressing is the need for improving the physical development of the pupils that in New York a Public School Athletic League was formed of promi nent business men to interest the boys in athletics. So successful was this league that just the other day the Hoard of Ksti mates authorized $300,000 for the pur chase of athletic fields for school boys. More than :'O,OOO hoys have entered this year in the preliminary touuds of the Spring contests,aud as no pupil is allowed to compete unless he is up to the standard in conduct and studies, the moral aud intellictnal good effect of school athletics is quite as marked as the physical. Recently at the Friends' yearly meet ing in Philadelphia, this question was widely discussed. President Swain, of Swartbmore College, was most eui pliatio in nis favor of sports,declaring "Every boy and girl must have the playground. Experience of twenty five years with the yonng convinces me that the athletic field is a necessity." Another speaker stated that fifty per cent, of all bank clerks die of consump tion before middle age because the majority of them have failed to build up their bodies by athletic exercise in youth. Kcw, nowadays, decry the expense of providing moans to insure this building up of the body.

It wi'l come all right in a shoit time, however, and the occupants of any particular boose will distinguish their own call readily euough fiom the number of others that pass over the same pair of wires. In a very shoit time all tie arrange ments will be perfected whereby the rural 'phone can connect with tin United system and residents of tie' county as far ott as Exchange can talk to Danville.

This will be a luxury, indeed, appreciated alike by the residents of Dauville and those of the northern end of the county, who have always hepn j without the advantages of elegraph or telephone communication. The full advantages when connect ion is made were well illustrated by an lucideiit which occurred on the rural sytsem the other night. A valuable horse belonging to J. A. Essick, was taken very sick and the services of a skillful veterinarian weie wanted i in - mediately. Mr. Kssick's first impulse was to send some one post haste to Danville or Blootusluirg for a veteri narian, but lie happended to think of his new telephone and he quickly devis ed a for reaching Hloomsburg Among the subscribers of the rural 'phone at Jersey town is Dr. Shuman, w ho, also has a United 'phone in the bouse, lie called up the physician who in compliance with Mr. Essick's re quest went to the other 'phone and called up the Bloomsbnrg veterinary. The latter left instantly for Mr. Es sick's and notwithstanding the long distance arrived there bi-tc re daylight and administered to the sick which recovere I. As an object lesson the above incidi nt appeals very strong ly to the farmers and none aie inclin ed to regret that they have installed a 'phone. Huge Task.
