TIMES BEEAI
INTO FIRM HOUSE
The farm boose of Milo Reed above
Boyd's Station was invaded by thieve*
Sunday night. Thev, however, left
only a slight trace behind and took nn
booty.
Mr. Heed was spending the day at
Berwick. When evening arrived Mr*.
Reed and the rest of the household left
for church, closing up the house in
the usual manner. When they return
ed they were confronted with unmis
takable evidence that thieves had gone
through the house. Mr. Reed and his
family,however,like wise people make
it a practice to keep as little as possi
ble about the house that thieves might
covet. Even the safe, although gen
erally locked, contains nothing more
valuable than books and paper*. It
could not be ascertained that any ar
ticles weie missing beyond some cat
ables in the cellar.
The burglars evidently etlected an
entrance through one of the windows,
in which a fly screen was inserted anil
the shutters of which were bowed and
fastened in that position. On return
ing from church Mrs. Reed found the
fasteuiniz with which the shutters
were secured broken and the shutters
themselves wide open, while the tly
of the thieves. The safe, which all
seem sure was closed when they left
the house, was found open, although
its contents not being of a sort to
tempt burglars were undisturbed. In
the cellar were found also evidenoeg
that thieves had been on the premises.
The affair following closely on the
heels of the daring hold-ap in Pine
Swamp Hollow, Thursday, has caused
a great deal of anxiety among the
farmers on the South side of the river,
as no one knows at what point the
robbers may operate next. Ii is safe
to say that Mr. Reed's house will he
impregnable hereafter and that all
over that section the farmers will be
on the alert Some in market yester
day wore heard to describe the precau
tion that they have employed. In most
instances the family shot gun well
loaded and kept handy is relied upon,
while in not a few cases the more
effective revolver is just now kept
within easy reach to proteotthe house.

The public schools of t.lifl Borough
Mon'lay afternoon openod '.with 1145
pupils enrolled, which is considered
very nearly normal. In the High
School there are 117 poplin. In the
four grammar schools flip following
numbers are enrolled: First 40;
Second Ward, :M , Third Ward, 25;
Fourth Ward, li». In all the lower
grades the rooms were well tilled
Horough Superintendent Gorily last
eveuing stated that there are still pu
pils to como ill. Some of these are
absent under the mistaken idea that
their presence will not count during
the first few days of school, when the
time in largely devoted to outlining
the work and imparting of the pupils
as definite an idea as possible to what
is to be done and what methods are to
be employed during the term. Those
pupils who miss this essential part ot
the instruction will find later on that
they are laboring under a serious
handicap, the effact of which will be
apparent in the general result The
pupil, therefore, who desires to make
a good showing during the term had
better get into school without the loss
of a single additional day.
At the clo«e of yesterday's session
Horough Superintendent Gordy held a
teachers' meeting in the First Ward
Grammar school room The teachers
after their vacation have gone back to
their tasks invigorated and full of
hope. In the group were some strange
faces; for in addition to the principal
ship of the High School filled by Prof
essor Taylor there were three other
vacancies which are tilled as follows:
Third Ward Grammar school. Prof
essor J. H. Shaw ; Second grade, First
Ward, Miss Bertha Miller; Welsh Hill,
Miss Alice Smull. Professor Shaw,
who last, year was principal <>f the
Nescopeck schools, comes to Danville
very highly recommended. That he is
a teacher of experience, well equipped
for his work is already quite mani
fest. He will undoubtedly succeed m
his new field.

"Impossible" Port Arthur.
Less than a year ago a famous mil
itary expert said "It takes men drunk
with victoty and strong and ancient
might to dare the ri-k of taking Port
Arthur; human energy and prowese
cannot force it ; only madmen would
attempt it."
What prompted such a positive dic
tum from such an authoritative source
may be realized from the only authen
tic reproduction in existence of the
great battle field to be exhibited by
Lyman H. Howe in Trinity M. E
church on Thursday evening, August
31st.
" This series of moving pictures in
Mr. Howe's new program cannot fail
to Inspire true sensations of the ele
mental contest at the apex ot the
world, where two civilizations wen
in life and death throes—sensationf
and impressions that nothing short ol
these graphic, sweeping animated
scenes alone can afford. 1 hey begii
where all mere description ends. Hert
is a great army from a warlike nation
equipped tor scientific fighting and
officered by men trained in the world'i
best schools; twenty thousand met
driven in a hole; men of the same
blood that defeated Napoleon, .-tub
bornly contested Sebastopol, and al
appalling loss of life reduced the mar
velous Blevna. Pitted against then
is an entirely new world power, an
other army little known and less lion
ored. Tliev are engaged in a might}
struggle on tho grandest battle fielc
the world has ever seen.
Only ten neutrals had the hardihooc
conflict. Only ton neutrals are accord
ed the privilege by the Japanese Gov
ernment to do so. Only one of thesi
ten secured an enduring history of i
in moving pictures, and this one wa

PEACH CHOP
LARGEST IN YEARS
The curbstone market last Saturday
brought not an eiiormooH quantity of
peaches. Several well known growers
weie interviewed and they all agree
that there is an enormous crop of
peaches, the largest for Home live or
six years past. There will he plenty
of peaches, therefore, for everybody,
hot just what prions may prevail is
not so certain.
The fruit is divided into three
grades—large, median) and small. To
these may he added the culls, which
are frequently Hold in small boxes and
are by no means to be despised either
as a luxury or a source of profit. The
large peaches sell at 75 cents per has
kot, the medium at 65 cents and the
small at 40 cents. The culls sell at
the rate of 10 cents per half a peck.
Peaches are just now being shoved
on the market in enormous quantities
—the high water mart will probably
he reached this week, although there
will he peaches in market until Octo
ber. The crop, however, now is at its
best and the fruit is more delicious
than it will be later on. The heaviest
demand for peaches is just now on.
Should the latter not prove heavy
enough to absorb the supply the price
will fall; should the opposite be the
Case the price will remain as at pres
ent. The result will be watched with
some interest during the next week or
so.
Tho prices as quotod above are for
half bushel baskets. In this connec
tion it is worth noting that the pros
pective purchaser in pricing peallien
should know what kind of baskets aro
used. There seems to he no law on
the subject and baskets vary much in
size, designated as N quart, 10 quart
and 12 quart baskets in addition to the
full half a bushel basket. Purchasers
should insist upon the full half liushel
|or consent only to prices low in nro
portion.
Among the leading peach growers
who are disposing of their crop at our
curbstone market are : H. L. DeWHt,
of Walnutdale; William Metier, near
Kliuesgrove; John Hendricks, Hush
town , the Pnrdy farm, Hush township,
tenanted by William Ryan. "There are
good crops elsewhere, for every tree
this year seems to hear and there is
scarcely a farm, but has more or less
I peaches to sell.
Large growers like Dr. S. Y. Thomp
son and others sold out their entile
crops to dealers from a distance who
canvassed this section some weeks age
offering one dollar per bushel in the
orchard. These large growers were
wise, as they get rid of their big crop
of peaches without any trouble at a
good profit whereas had they thrown
them on the local market there would
have been a glut that would have led
to waste and prices that would have
been a poor return, indeed, for the
risk and labor involved.

EAST (Alter
STBBET fAVBBENT
There are nuermouH inquiries as to
tho status of street paving on East
Market street,whioli some two or ttiree
wenks ago wns set flown as an assured
tiling- Up to tlio present no petition
has been presented to Council, nor
does it seem tliat anything whatever
is being done to g»-t ready for the
work.
Careful inquiry has brought out
facts which seem to make it doubttnl
whether East Market street will he
paved—at least this summer. In the
lirst place there is an organized op
position against paving the street and
a counter been circulated
Just how many signers it has is not
known, as neither of the petitions ha>
as yet been presented to Council.
Those in favor of paving insist that
at the present time there are enough
signers to carry the proposition
through. At the same time it was
learned from a reliable source yester
day that complications of a rather
troublesome nature relating to the
cost of the work have arisen which is
bound to cause considerable delay.
The same authority admitted that
things at present do not look favor
able for paving the street.
Time is passing rapidly. Even
though all difficulties were to be
speedily and satisfactorily adjusted it
is doubtful whether the woik could be
got under way before late in Septem
ber and the penod intervening be
tween that and winter would bo en
tirely too short to complete the pave
ment. it is pretty safe to conclude
therefore that East Market street will
not be paved this year.

Fast Run to Sunbury.
The fastest run ever made 011 tho S.
H. & W. branch of the Pemisy. was
accomplished Saturday between South
Danville and Sunbury by the noon
passenger train with Thomas Attig,
the well-known engineer,at the throt
tle.
The train due to arrive at South
Danville at 12:10 was twenty-nine
minutes late, which was a serious cir
cumstauce as there were ou board two
passengers who wanted to take tho
HufTalo tlyer at Sunhnry. The usual
time between South Danv 111 e and Sun
bury is twenty minutes but in order
to connect with the tlyer on Saturday
it would be necessary to make the dis
tance in about one-half of that time.
This then was the task that Engi
neer Attig started out to accomplish.
Some of our townspeople along with
Chief Burgess W. T. Shepperaon of
Riverside, who were on board were
unprepared for the rate of speed at
nin i.nis. iimy were nut *su 1 (ii iseri
later on learning that the distance be

the DY. tower at Sunbury, eleven
miles, was covered 111 just eleven min

Reverend Amos Smith Baldwin,
Presiding Elder of the Danvillo Dis
tr mt of the Methodist Episcopal
church, died at liih home in Snnhnry,
on Friday morning at half-past. eight
o'clock.
Death was due to cancer. Reverend
Baldwin had been failing iu health for
a period covering over two years hut
Ins condition did not become alarm
ing until May. Dating from that
period, he grew slowly, hut steadily,
worse, in spite of medical skill and
careful nursing, until death ended his
earthly career
Rev. Baldwin was horn in Fulton
county, Pennsylvania, and was i» 1
years of age. He prepared for the
ministry at the Dickinson Seminary,
Williainsport, Pa., and took his first
charge in the year 1875. By close ap
plication and an undivided interet in
his chosen life's work, he rapidly rose
to the position of Presiding Elder.
Previous to coming to Sunhury, hu
was tli» Presiding Elder of the Juniata
District, changing places with the
Rev Dr. Evans, aboot a year and a
half ago.
Although his stay in Sunbury was
marked by the fatal ailment which
prevented hiin from coining into a
closer contact with the people in his
district, he was held in the highest
esteem.
By his dc atli the church loses one of
its most ardent workers and the world
sustains the loss of one of its best
citizens. The grandest eulogy that can
lie written is that "He was a good
man.''
A widow and three children survive
to rnouru his death : Miss Mary, locat
ed at Tyrone; Miss Amy, who resides
at home, and George,of Philadelphia.

my PIPE CANAL
BEFORE mm
Alf airs relating to th<> old canal
seem to he reaching a crisis and it is a
quotation just. Imw great a nuisance of
tin" sort, the people are obliged to tol
erate. As the season advancos rank
and noxious weeds conspire with the
sluggish and halt concealed sewage in
the bottom to render the long ditch
donhly unsightly and disgusting. w bile
as a menace to public health the situa
tion grows more and moie grave eveiy
dav That ttie pnblio all along the old
waterway are crying out against the
nuisance is only natural in the prem
ises. Tint they have submitted to
the state of affairs without more
drastia action is due solely to their
conservative spirit and forbearance.
An interview yesterday was had
with J. H. Goeser, President of the
Board of Trade, who took the matter
up with owners of the canal many
months ago and succeeded in obtaining
from them a promise to co-operate
with the Borough in abating the nuis
ance Things move slowly, hut Mr
Qoeser has conlience that the I). L». <fc
W. Railroad Company means to do
the right thing and that before many
months the nusiance will be out < 1 the
way.
A letter bearing on the subject has
been received from (». J. Kay, Divi
sion Superintendent of the D. L. &
W. Railroad, who caused a survey to
be made early last spring todetermim
the feasibility ol piping the old wat
erway. Mr. Hay states in effect that
the agreements in connection with the
work are all prepared and will lie pre
sented to Council shortly for approv
al. The D. L. & VV. people, he says,
hope to get the work under way ibis
fall. He sees no reason, why the pip
ing should not he completed before
winter.
The. above certainly sounds encourag
ing and is the most assuring informa
tion that has yet boon received. The
Borough, it will be remembered, lias
agreed to fill up the canal if the own
ers will lay pipe in the bottom to pro
vide for the drainage. The D. L. &
W. Railway Company, it is said, an
favorable to this proposition, and will
agree further that the Borough may
use the pipe as a public sewer.
Should it turn out that all delays
are over and the Council and the Kail
road Company get together on the
above basis it will prove a very goon
thing for the Borough, as it will not
only lid the town of a great nuisance
hut will at the same time give us over
half a mile of public sewer, wheie such
an improvement under any other cir
cuinstances would be out of the ques
tion for many years to come.
