While the Post Cilice Department looks with favor upon sonvenir cards that are inoffensive it is going after others of the opposite sort iu a way that promises to cut down the business considerably. During an interview with Postmast er C. I'. Harder Tuesday some tacts wore learned which.it is believed,will prove very interesting reading. It is true many persons have the right idea concerning sonvenir postal cards, and the custom of sending out cards con taining pictures of landmarks, im provements and bits of scenery, such as otir new bridge with first trol ley car. Christ Church and the like is quite within tho law ami should be encouraged ; but there are another class of faddists who have a Kteat deal to learn for their own good and in the interview with our postmaster will be found the information they need. Postmaster Harder called attention to the fact that the law enacted !>y Congress a few years ago provides that cards of the same size and weight as the ordinary postal card may be sent through tho mails as ordinary postal cards provided a one-cent stamp be allixeil. The tronblo is, he says, that ' while many of the printed cards sold as souvenir postal cards meet these re qnirements aud can be written upon and sent through the mails with a 1 ' cent stamp affixed, a large number of . others—probably the larger number sent oat—are much bigger than the ordinary postal cards,or worse yet.ari* made of leather or wood. All such cards as the latter, which do not meet the requirements, art mailed as merchandise at the rate of one cent per ounce, but if anything is written upon them, then they require letter postage, which is two cents per ounce. Tho leather cards are about the same size as the ordinary postal cards, but they are much thicker and are bar ed from the mails except as merohan dise. If written upon letter postage must be paid. The wooden souvenirs, larger ar.d heavier, generally weigh more than an ounce. If anything is written npon these four cents in stamps must be affixed. The trouble is that to most people, all souvenirs "look alike" and they affix one-cent stamps to big and little, write their messages upon the back and dump them into the letter boxes. The great maj ority of course, being unmailable. do not reach their destination. There is another class of postal cards that are indelicate and offensive and it is this class that the Post Office De partment is after. Orders have been issued to stop all such cards. Post master Harder says that the Depart ment draws the line on girls in bath ing suits and on pictures with red devils accompanied by the legend: "I am having a of a time." Not one of such cards are permitted to reach ■ the addressee, but are forwarded to the dead letter office. i i IT IS SERIOUS Some Danville People Fail to Realize the Seriousness.

" Vetoes of the Governor of Pills Passed by the Legislature, Session of 1905" is the title of a very neatly bound book received at this (rflico from Harrisburg with the compliments of Samuel W. Pennypacker, Governor of (he Commonwealth. The book makes quite interesting reading. The text of the bills vetoed are preseuted after which the Govoru or addressing the legislative body in his characteristic way points out and explains the defects and sets forth in full the reasons why the bill is return ed without his appoval. It is remarkable bow many of the bills drawn up apparently by skillful persons contain defects and absurdi ties. In some of the bills returned the Governor has discovered "that the purpose is not clearly expressed." Iu others it is "special legislation " One bill makes it a misdemeanor for any person or per so into deface or de stroy an index board erected at the "intersection of any public road or roads by the Supervisor or Supervis ors thereof." The bill has a number of defects and the Chief Executive dis misses the whole matter with the fol lowing terse sentence: " There is no such thing as 'the intersection of any public road.' " "An Act to prohibit the use of any I adulteration or imitation of dairy pro ducts iu any charitable or penal 111 stitution," the Governor says "is con ceived iu a spirit of violence" and ho returns it without his approval The penalty appeared disproportionate to the offense.

MITCHELL'S VIEWS MORE SANGUINE President John Mitchell in his ad dress Saturday evening declared that. President George Baer was reasonable, keen and shrewd, and felt that the coal operators would see their way clear to hold a conference with the leaders of the miners h fore the term ination of the present agreement. it is the general conviction that Mr. Mitchell has some reasons for being sanguine, hopeful and optimistic. His speeches are not so forcible and de monstrative as four weeks ago. He wants peace, and desires it, but urges the miners to better their organiza tion declaring that the only way it can be done, is to increase their num erical strength. "Show them by num bers that you are in earnest and the results will be easy attained" said Mr. Mitchell. | "The independence of the anthracite miue workers is now pending," he continued. "It is up to you to either make or bear it. If we lose, the right to join a labor organization will be taken from you,and not in a life time will an opportunity, like this present itself," He concluded by declaring that he nor the miners wanted strike, but they do want an eight hour day, the recognition of tlio union and the permaneut retention of the concilia tion board, the latter to be on a more improved plan. Shortly after his little talk it was given out by the district officers of the union that the miners' union in creased sixty thousand members dur ing the past three months,and expect ed that half that number would apply during tlio next two weeks. If these figures are true, it means that Mitch ell's visit has really surpassed ex pectations,and it might mean that his first prediction of a solid authracito union of miners, with a membership of 150.0(H) members will be realized. The operators, as is evidenced by their acts,look upon the agitation with indifference, and when questioned openly say, that President Mitchell is not sincere in his efforts to get an eight-hour day. The miners might demand it, but will never insist upon it. As to recognition,the operators will 1 not concede it, for the opportunity to ! break the union, would be lost forever. | The mine owners desire to be free 1 from collecting the union dues, and | will pay no more attention to the 1 mine workers' organization than is necessary. There is no.mistake about i the f-ict. however, that the coal com- I panies intend.tn be prepared for eveiy emergency,as all, without a single ex -1 eeption. are storing coal in larger ■ quantities than ever before.

When Hayes wa< brought from the jail securely bund called to Officer | Brittaiii, ui>on entering the Justice! office bo appeared to be in the best of humor and spoke to all present in a very pleasant manner. When the charge was read to him of stealing six shirts, six bottles of whiskey, a trunk and a number of lead pencils, ho re plied "make it right and 1 will plead guilty." He said that be took only four bottles of whiskey and did not take any lead pencils. Alter be had pleaded guilty be talked freely of his attempted escape. He Hard that if lie bad had better tools ho would have made his escape from bis cell in one hour's time. He said be would advise no one to try it as It was too hard a job. The most difficult part of the work was the bendmgof t lie sheet iron ceiling which occupied most of bis time. He knew when be had been dis covered trying to net away, and was quietly watching tho officers who were looking for him. When he saw the light turned on in Warden Hancock's office he gave up all hope of making his escape. While Hayes was telling about, his attempted escape Officer Simmers of the Reading Company who arrested him entered the office and Hayes look ing up at him with a smile said, "I had a good one on von but it did not work, so I had to tix tilings so that you would not have tho laugh on me. When I found that I could get through my coll and through the roof 1 wrote on the wall of my cell "you may be ablo to catch me on a passenger train going a mile minute but you can't keep me." When I found that I was discovered I rubbed the writing off the wall. When Justice Carpenter told Hayes that he would have to send him to jail for Court he surprised everybody when be said: "Now look here,l have made a study of the law concerning bur glary,larceny and felonious entry " and his explanation that followed was u correct interpretation of that part of the law. When questioned he said that ho be lieved that his father and mother were still living at Montoursville but he had not seen then for some time as he had been away to college taking a special course at the Eastern Peniten tiary. When told that his father was one of tli3 Jury Commissioners of Ly coming county he replied "I wish he was the Judge that 1 will be brought up before; maybe Pop would bo easy with me."

A SEPARATE POLE LINE Tho Western Union crews that are building a separate polo line from Danville to Williamsport have now gotten on as far as Norman Beyer's. Valley township, proceeding as nearly an possible in a straight line to Ex change. Just at present one of the crews is at woik in this city on that part of the line, which carries the wire out from the I). IJ. ISC W. Kail toad to the Mausdalo road. The extension begins at tho IJ. L. & W. crossing and ex tends down along the track as far as Mahoning creek when it takes a north erly course to the Borough line. The | poles, which are already planted, are SHt close to Mahoning creek on the eastern side. The wires are not yet strung. The Western Union telegraph wire between this city and Williamsport up to the present has been carried on the poles of the United Telephone and I Telegraph Company. It is brought in to this city ou its own poles planted along the D. L. &W. railroad where I it has the right of way. From the D. 1 i L. & W. to the telegraph oflice under ' ) agreement with the Standard Electric ' 5 Light Company the poles of the latter I i corporation are used. 3 The polos used for the uew line are i all shipped a hundred miles or more ' from New Jersey to this city, whenoe 1 they are hauled by teams out into the country and distributed where needed. A little later the poles will be deliv ered at Washiugtonville as more con venient. The work is under the direc tion of J. A. Burt, the Company's Kight-of-Way man,and very good pro ; gress is being male considering all the circumstances. During the earlier stages of the work the men all lodged in this city. At I present one of the crews remains in • the country boarding at the farm [ houses.

GIGANTIC PIECE OF WORK Tin; double box culvert being con structed for the P. & li. Railway Company by Suiith & Oampioa of Mahauoy CJity to bridge Scolder's Run where the big wash out east of the station occurred a few years ago, is a most gigantio piece of work. Some two weeks have already been putin and scarcely more than a beginning has been marie. It will hardly be com pleted before the approach of winter. The men are at present at work on the westerly one of the three immense walls, which constitute the culvert. The former calvert was not built up on a rock foundation and to tit is is at tributed the fact that it was not ad equate to meet all emergencies and gave way before the big flood. In re building not only will the culvert be provided with two waterways, each nine feet by ten feet, but the walls will be sunk down to rock bottom. In the case of the wall under way it wa« necessary togo down live fort bafore rock was reached,which gives the con crete woik a height of fifteen feet measur'ng from the rock upward. The water accumulates very rapidly in the deep excavation and a centrifugal pump operated by a stationary engine has to be kept in steady operation. The water of the run is very easily tak en care of by diverting it from its nat ural bed through artificial channels. The magnitude of the operation will be appreciated when it is stated that the three walls extending from one side of the base of the huge rail way embankment to the other,are one hundred and thirty four feet long. The two octside walls will be time feel thick and the center wall two feet thick. The deck or covering will be two feet in thickness. In construct ing this the concrete will be re-inforc ed by iron rails laid from one wall to another. The form will be built n couple of inches below the iron, s( that when the covering or deok is com pleted the rails will be out of sigh and there will be nothing in view bu the concrete. It will require over on< hundred iron rails for the deck, whil the cubio yards of concrete in the cul vert will be little less than thirteei hundred. From the top of the couoretn worl to the track is a height of some thirr seven feet. This will all be filled ii with dirt, tapering from each side o the long walls to the width of tw tracks on the top. Tbe work is in charge of P. A Konkle, foreman for Smith & Cam[ ion. Engineer W. G. Yetter of Cats wissa, formerly superintendent of thi division of the P. K. Railway,is o the ground as inspector for the Rai road Company. i Are You Engaged.

The following is an extract from tl Press riuiiutin of »•>« Pennsylvania E: ' periment Station by William Frea > and is of interest to farmers and otl ers who are interested in eliminatiu E adulterations in cattle feed: ' The Station has recently examined 1 sample of bran submitted by a Wes 1 tnorelaud County farmor with a *tat< ment that cattle refuse it, and whe • they do eat it, aro purged, and tin hogs eating it sicken and die, on farmer in that county having lost si hogs in this way. Upon examinatio the bran was found to contain rie halls. These halls,produced abundantly a a waste from the rice milling in dustry,differ materially fiomthe ball of barley, wheat, rye aud oats becaus of the fact that they contain shari particles of silica. These are extreme ly irritating to the mucous lining o the digestive tract of the animals eat ing the hulls. The irritation produc ed is so intense that many animals ar sickened aud often killed because o this action of the rice hulls. Hogs am heifers have been especially injurei where attempts have been made in th Southern States to feed this produc and the experience in that locality in shown these hulls to be an abfolnti dangerous ingiedient of stock food. Rice hulls have beeu found in west ern samples of wheat bran sold in New England aud in the Middle West, bu this is the first case, to the writ.'r' knowledge, in which the adiilteiau has appeared in Pennsylvania Tin sample in que-tion showed large p»r tides of yellow hulls that wme read! ly detectable upon a careful exatuiua tion of the btan by the unaided eye. With a low power lens the outside sur face of the hull is seen to be marked by fine parallel lines covering tin whole surface quite uniformly and ex tending parallel to the long axis of tlx hull. This appearance is quite differ ent from that shown by barley and oa hulls. Owing to the extremely danger J ous character of this adulterant, buy I ers should be especially on their gaard against it. Accident on State Road. Oliver Cojie.of Mausdale,who is em ployed by Fiss & Hartman on tli€ Btate Road, met with an accident Sat urday morning which resulted in injuring two lingers ou his tight hand. Mr. Cope was on a wagon which had been drawn along side of the stone crusher to be unloaded. In some man ner he fell against the machine and his hand became entangled in the chain gear. Before the man could ex tricate himself from the machinery the hand had been drawn half around the circumference of the wheel be tween the chain and the teeth. The injuries were more painful than I serious, as only the flesh was lacerat ed. PHYSICIANS UIVH THEIR VIEWS It is pretty obvious that there is a good (leal of illness about town, which in view of the h d sanitary conditions prevailing is nor at all reassuring to our citizens. At the same time it is worth relating that our physicians while they adn it the prevalence of disease see notl i ig in it that is alarm ing at p-. enl, ;<lthough they take the view that the insanitary conditions are a bad feature. Our town lias got a good deal of cleaning up to do before it Is either entirely presentable in appearance or free from suspicion of breeding dis ease. How far the reeky and foul smell ing can i! r spousible for malarial and other fevers that alllict humanity is problematical That it has a bane ful etfiiot no one will dispute. It is here, however, appa-ently to stay, too big a nuisance f> r the Borough to cope with. Hut there are other sources of disease, how »»t, less in extent but quite noxious, that are plainly un der the Borough's control and which should be gotten rid of very soon. Not the least c 112 these is the bed of Blizzard's run. It borders ou the par adoxical to asset t that the bottom of this stream since the sewer has been laid, along its cour-o is more fool and di-gusting than it was before, yet this is just the way a leading citiaen of oar town put it the other day. Tlie pipe sunU under the surfaoe sutlices to carry off all the water so that the bed of the stream is dry. Pre viously the steady How of water dilut ed and carried off much of the foul matter. The sewer is all right iu theory. It was the rroper thing to oblige all person* whose establisbm< nts polluted the cr ek to connect with the sewer. But the order should have been made very sweeping and have been strictly enforced. There are still sources of shameful pollution and thus the very objret and effect of the Bewer is neutralized, as the filthy matter dropping into the bed of the diy stream lies theie an offense to the eye and nostril alike and rendering the second condition of Blizzard's run worse than the first. There are many places about the town that could bo improved and this applies quite a* much to private a* to publio property. Many of the yaids. cleaned oat in the spring, 'by this time show quite an accumulation of garbage that should be gotten rid of as soon as possible. Imperfect drain age is a bad tiling, one that is re sponsible for more onhealth than most people dreatn of. Yet at how many places at the very threshold of the dwelling one sees stagnaut water ly ing in the drains. A remedy for this iu a large poition of the town of course, could be found by conuecting with the sewer; where this is im -1 ia tii'iihic ihe ui xt best thing can be done,which is to beep the drains clean and to exercise a« much care as possi ble. One oi our leading physicians inter viewed stated that in his opinion,uow that the Hospital is again draining its sewage into the river the proper thing to do is to boil all the hydrant water used for drinking purposes. He stated that with the immense volume of sew age draining into the river such a short distance above town it was preposter ous to think that at least a portion of it does not find its way into our water system and assuming that such is the case it is equally preposterous to think i that our filter plant is going to elimi nate the bacteria, which are bly licked with the idea of sewage.

August Was a Very Rainy Month Augnsr, just ended, was a very peculiar month in many respects. More rain fell in this Angust than for any August 111 thirty-four years, wit one exception. That was in 1873, when 11.49 inches of rain came down. Dur ing August the rainfall has aniointed to 9.51 inches, this being 6.1(5 inches above the normal. For the month tlie temperature was 12 degrees below the normal, which is 74. A peculiarity about the cool and warm days is that they are bunched to a great extent. There were three or four warm days, and than as m uiy cool days. Ayer's Ayer's Cherry Pectoral quiets tickling throats, hack ing coughs, pain in the lungs.
