J FIFTY MINUTE SCBEDDLE Beginning with November Ist or as soon after as possible the Danville and Bloomsburg Electiic Railway will en ter upou a fifty minute schedule in stead of the forty minute schedule, on which the cars have beeu running un til the present time. The schedule in the form of a folder convenient for distribution, is in process of printing and will soon be ready for ase As implied by the schedule a car will leave Danville aud Bloomsburg every fifty minutes duiintr the day. The schedule also shows the exact time at which the car on each trip is due to arrive at the intermediate sta tions as the Cemetery. Paules' Turn Out, Yorks', Grovania, Diemer's, Mensch's Turn Out and Fishing Creek Bridge. The forty tniuute schedule makes the time of arriving aud departure of the cars very easy to remember, but the period of forty minutes after a year's experience is found impractic able nnder all but the most extreme circumstances. Between the Cemetery and Mill street the amount of traffic and consequently the number of stops required is wholly an unknown quant ity and is just as likely as not to de lay the cars so that they come in late. The result is that the forty miuute schedule stands for very little indeed and persons arriving at the stopping places, even when late,are at a 10-s to know whether the car has jast passed or is merely delayed and thus aie in duced to risk a great loss of time to say nothing of the discomfort or fin uoyance of waiting, which is nearly always a factor. The additional ten minutes, allow ing for the maximum of stops will make it easy for the cars to reach tQ jt tl ,Vr the cars do not arrive at nor leave either Danville or Bloomsburg until the ex act time set forth on the printed sched ule, which will be distributed among the public who patronize the liue. It will thus be seen that the publio will be put to no inconvenience whatever, but will be wholly the gainers by the change. The Danville aud Bloomsburg Com pany has now removed its summer cars for the seasou and is using the closed cars, whiCii are heated during morn ing and evening. Bateman-Bergstresser. Miss Elizabeth E., daughter of Mr. and Mrs. S. E. Bergstresser. and Wil liam C. Bateman were mariiedat 4:35 o'clook this morning in the Bergstres sor residence on North Oak .street. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Herbert Ure. The marriage is a complete surprise to all. Although it was known that the young people wereengaged.no one had beeu advised of the approaching nuptials, and the only witnesses were the BergUresser family. The bride is oue of Mount Camel's fairest and most accomplished young women. Mr. Bateman is inside fore man at the Centralia colliery aud lias a promising future. All unite HI ex tending congratulations. The couple left on the 5:21 Reading train for a wedding trip to points unknown.-Mt. Carmel Item. The bride frequently visited at the home of George M. West. Pine street. The groom formerly resided in Dan ville. Mitchell Day at Shamokin. Miners from all parts of the ninth district will participate in the celebra tion of Mitchell Day, at Shatnokiu, next Saturday. There will be a big parade, and the festivities in honor of the day will be the most extensive in that section. Samuel Gompers, presi dent of the American Federation of Labor and W. B. Wilson,secretary and treasurer of the United Mine Workers of America, will deliver addresses Major Seesholtz Very Low. The condition of Major Isaac H. Sees holtz, of Catawissa. was so low last, night that his death was considered only a matter of hours. For some mouths Major Seesholtz's condition has been serious, and recently he has been gradually failing.' ■ON THANKS GIVING SERVICE The Union Thanksgiving service will bo held in Grove Presbyterian church this year. The Thanksgiving sermon will be delivered by the Rev. J. E Hutchison pastor of the Mali on ng Presbyterian Church. The ar rangement of the full program for the service was left in the hands of Rev Dr. McCormack and members of the ! Grove Presbyteiian church. ! Ihe above was decided upon at a | session of the Ministerial Association j of Danville which was held yesterday morning expressly for the purpose. The session was attended by nearly all the pastors of town aud the action was unanimous. The Thanksgiving offering according to custom will be turned over to the Woman's Benevolent Association of this city, which will retain it until the anuual meeting in Januarv when it will be applied to some object that needs it the most. The Thauksgiving offering last year was rather an insignificant sum and an effort this year will be made to do considerably better. The Woman's Benevolent Association is a band labor ing for a noble object. During the long winters it relieves much actual suffering. It is a fact, however, that its activities are much restricted for the want of funds. The Thanksgiving offering is one of the priuciiial sources of help that the Association has to look to and when that falls short the deficiency is felt very much indeed. There was a good deal of enthusiasm shown at the ministerial meeting yes terday and if the Union Thanksgiving is not a success along all lines it will not be because the pastors are not be stirring themselves. Preachihg at Seventy-eight. Kev. Dr. M. L. Shiudel, pastor of Pine Street Lutheran church,this city, yesterday in a quiet manner observed his seventy-eighth birthday. Dr. Shindel enjoys the distinction of being one of the oldest clergymen in active service in this section of the State. His prolonged career in the pulpit is due to his bodily and intel lectual vigor, which he retains to a surprising degree. He occupies the pulpit and discharges his clerical duties with zeal and fidelity, losing less time through indisposition thau many a younger man. Along with an upright figure, good eyesight, good hearing aud memory he retains a warm heart aud sunny disposition. His hand shake is as vigorous and warm as ever abd now as he approaches the eightieth milestoue of life's journey he is still the sympathetic open-heart ed. even jolly friend, aud his com panionship is as highly prized by the young as by the old. All in all Dr. Shindel would be a splendid model for those to fashion after who would wi»h to "grow old gracefully." Rev. Dr. Shindel came to Danville over thirty years ago. During the long period intervening he has been pastor of Pine Strett Lutheran church. He is one of the ablest preachers of this section. Dwelling Remodeled. The brick, residence and stoie com bined, owned by Jacob Shelhart on Mill street adjoining the Armory, has beeu in the hands of the painters for a week or more past and now presents a very artistic appearauce. The work was done by Mr. Startzel. The old store building, now the Armory.which for some time past,has begun to look very dilapidated,suffers very much bv comparison with the new paint, lu point of fact the old building in its air of general neglect is little less thau » <u r -—- ui me white paint has scaled off the brickwork giviug the general surface of the outside walls a dirty speckled appearauce sufficient to constitute an eyesore in itself ; but to this add the fact that the large plate glass windows below as well as the tier above are nearly half broken out and are repaired with old boards aud many yards of burlappiug and wo have a picture that is out of all keepiug with the surroundings and certainly illy accords with the street pavement laid iu front of the building at so much cost. It is hoped that the atten tion of those who own or are responsi ble for the old landmark will be called to its bad condition. Faith Not Necessary.

This is a famous organization of veterans of the Civil War, who saw service of three years duration or upwards. A number of the leading lesidents of Moutour aud Columbia counties are members and have their headquarters at Bloomsburg. The annual banquet which Is book ed for Danville will take place on November 15, 1905. The exact place of holding it has not been decided up on, but the fact may be relied upon that it will be a sumptuous affair, a reunion that will bring together veter an fighters from far and near. The committee having the banquet in charge is composed of I). R Eckman, Michael Breckbill aud Dr. Jno. Sweis fort. Hany of Them goto Reading. Machinists, boiler makers aud gen eral shop workmen to tfce number of one hundred have removed to Reading from Wilkes-Barre to work for the Reading Railway. The men were em ployed by the Lehigh Valley Company at Wilkes-Barre, until a week ago, when the company decided to abandon construction work there in favor of j the new shops at Sayre. j STAR CUDRSB OF ENTERTAINMENTS The Hoard of Directors of the Y. M. 0. A. have decided to present a course I of entertainments in the V. M. (J. A. I Hall, beginning with Tuesday even ing, November 21st, when the Whitney Male Quartette will appear.

Plans for the enlargement aud re , modeling of the Northumberland Coun ty Court House are being quietly for | mulated by the County officials. The structure as it is at present is j far too small for the transaction of the j county's legal business. lu court room number two especially is more room needed. During every term of crim inal court the room is packed, inter fering greatly with the trial of cases. All of the offices on ttie first floor ate also too stullv i"" 4 •" " *" r carryiug on of the busi ness. Besides the great need of rcom the roof and other parts of the building are in bail shape, needing much re pairing. While this is h'ing done it is the intention to enlarge the struct ure. No definite plans for the work have yet been adopted but a committee con sisting of President Judge Savidge, Associate Judge Auteu, Hon. W. H. M. Oram, of Shamokin, aud other prominent attorneys and officials of the county has been selected to make investigations along this line. The Lycoming county court houte at Will iamsport, which is a structure much the same as the Northumberland coun ty courthouse, was recently greatly improved by the erection of an L shape addition in the rear. The committee in the near future will visit Williams port and view the wi rk there with a view of doing tlit same at Suubuiy. There beiug plenty of grouud space in the rear of the Northumberland county tribunal an addition could be easily built aud this would afford the enlargement of the second trial room and down stair offices. Hany Ministers to be There. It is believed that in arly half of the members of the Centra' Pennsylvania Methodist conference will be in Will lamsport on Friday to atteud the for mal inauguration of the Rev.

ICE HOUSr, AND STABLE COMBINED | Pursuant to action of Council at its last meeting Secretary Patton lias granted a permit to tlie D. L. & W. Railroad Company to constiuct the switch into the building on D. L & W. avenue formerly the Salvation Army barrack. The prime mover in proauring (lie switch is our townsman A. L. De camp, who has an option on the old barrack and who desires to remodel it into a building for storing ice and a stable combined. Mr. Delcainp, who handles Pocouo ice, receives it by the car load and is obliged to sell it di rectly from the car.ajmethod attended with a good deal of inconvenience. With a switch running into the bar rack Mr. Delcamp will be enabled to store away a car load of ice at a time for use while the next car is on its way. In this way he will always have a small stock on hand and in case of a short delay in transportation caused by wreck or the like he will not be left without a supply of ice. Only oue half of the building will be used for the purpose of storing ice; the other half will be converted into a stable in which the horses needed for the ice wagons will be kept. The switch for which the permit has been granted will branch otf from the main track west of Ferry street, which it will cross and extend in an easterly direction to the barrack. The switch, which will practically take the place of one on the spot some years ago when a coal yard occupied the site of the barrack will be intended for gen eral use and will prove very conveni ent for our merchants who ship over the 1). L & W. Railroad. Seasonable Weather. The inerchauts will rejoice at the coming of cooler and seasonable weath er, to diminish their stock of Fall and Winter goo,ls. The protracted spell of delightful Autumnal weather, with Summer lingering as it were almost in the lap of Winter, was all to be de sired by the people for comfort, and the building trades have seldom had a season when there was lessiaiu or uu favoiable weather. As a consequence great progress has been made in con struction work. Merchants aud deal ers in clothing, fuel aud household necessities which depend upon season able or lower temperature have been impatiently awaiting the cool spell which we usuallv have earlier in Oc tober. The farmer can have no excu-e for not haviug harvested his late crops for the weather was certainly in his favor. There is life, health and vigor iu the clear, pure, bracing atmosphere,as the wind blows from the Northwest. The storm of last week which swept over the Northern belt of the United States and Southern Canada, was the severest in years in some sections,par ticularly the lakes,and takes the p!:tre of what many people like to call the "line storm." There was great de struction of shippiug and propetty along the lakes,tornadoes in the West, but the storm seems to have swept the sky clear of all impurities, am! the past few days gives thoughts of wraps, heat in the homes aud the real begin ning of Autumu. We have "Squaw Winter" ahead aud then " Indian Sum mer," but with such a warm and pro longed spell of soft,balmy weather, it is not probable the delightful season called "Indian Summer" will be of long duration,when it does come, per haps not more than three or four days.

Joe May, of West Fairview, some time ago amused the newspaper read ers of North America by drifting into the dining room of the Waldorf-As toria, eating an expensive dinuer and winding the tiling up by ordering a four dollar cigar before he was kicked out, but May has a rival in Harry Jeffries, a New York hobo, who Mon day evening at 7:05 o'clock boarded the Pennsylvania special at Harris burg and rode to Altoona, where he was arrested. Jeffries was not teen getting on the eighteen hour flyer betweeu New York aud Chicago at Harrisburg, and his presence on the train was not noted until the conductor of the train went through to take a record of the pass engers. Then ho noticed the hobo sitting leisurely upon one of the olush cushions.

AETER THIRTY IE4RS (IF SEPERiTION A romance of married life would be au appropriate title for the story of the reuuiting <'f Mr. and Mrs. Sanford Fegg. tlie former a Blootusburger thirty years ago,and the latter a long time resident of that town, who were reunited last week after a thirty years separation, and are now liviug togeth er at Scrautou. Thirty years ago Mr. Pegg.who was well known in Bloomsburg and liked by all suddenly deserted his wife, seemingly without any excuse what ever. At that time he was employed as gardener by the late David ,T. Wal ler. His home lifo was ideal and the greatest surpii-e wast lr at the time by all who knew him that he had so conducted himself He went to Scran ton and took up a position as coach man where, it is said, he has since beeu employed. During all these years in which his family have reached the years of ma turity and his wife and himself have passed into the riper years of their life, nothing was i.eaid from him. During the summer, it is understood, he ieturned to Bloomsburg for a brief visit, coming as one from the dead. It was only the older generatiou ot town who remembered him. He returned to Bloomsburg last week again; visited his wife and the two decided to live together as man and wife, Mr. Pegg returning to Scran ton where lie is employed and where they will make their homo from this time. The years have dealt kindly with both of them and it is possible that the thread of their married life, broken thirty years ago,will be united for many years to coma. To Cure a Cold in One Dav.

ELDERLY WUHAN'S CLOSE CALL An elderly lady whose name could not be ascertained came very uearly being ion over by Fount's Brewery wagon on Saturday evening- No blame whatever attaches to the driver, who was Mr. Foust himself, as it was wholly by his care aud prompt action j in stopping the team that an accident was averted. The woman was quite elderly and seemed to be hard of hearing. Site was in the act of crossing Mill stiect from the People's Bank to Hunt's drug store and stepped from the sidewalk onto the street right in front of the horses attached to the brewery wagon,which were coming up along the curb at a slow trot. As soon as Mr. Fonst took iu the situation he pulled in his horses; at the same moment the woman realized her position aud iu her excitement she fell Hat 011 the pavement. The horses in obedience to their driver halted, but it was a close call and before the team could be brought to a standstill they were so close to the woman that one of the horses struck her with his knee as she fell. Willing bauds assisted the woman to her feet, when she was found unhurt. Very much frightened she went on her way. A Guarauteed llure For Piles. Itching, Blind, Bleeding or protrud ing Piles.

Esq,, we have beeu permitted to ex annua a lot of interesting documents relating to his great grand father, General William Montgomery, which show that the founder of Danville was not only active m local affairs hut that he was also prominent in public life, filling high positions of trust and responsibility and in a strictly literal sense helping to mould the destinies of the nation. It would be a hard headed matter of fact person, indeed, who could gaze without emotion upon the time stain ed documents with their ancient chiro graphy penned not in the last century, but in the one still more remote, which so strangely allude to the savages here about and hint at the welfare of en terprises which long ago cease to ex ist. Geueral William Montgomery was one of the Commissioners appointed by the Supreme Executivo Council of Ptunsylvania, in 1787, "for executing the Act of Assembly entitled an Act for Ascertaining and Confirming to Certaiu Persous Called Connecticut Claimants the Lands by them Claim ed in the County of Luzerne." His commission given iu Council under the hand of the Hon. Charles Biddle, Vice President, is a quaint document, given "in the Name and by the Auth ority of the Kreemen of the Common wealth of Peunsylvauia" and stating that "reposing especial trust and oon fideuce iu his prudence, integrity and abilities" the Supreme Executive Council had apppointed William Mont gomery, &c. Further attesting General Montgom ery's high standing, socially and pol itically, among the old documents is an invitation exteuded to him to dine with the Great Washington. It r-ads as follows: "The President of the United States requests the pleasure of W. Montgom ery's company to dine on Thursday next at 4 o'clock 6 Jati'y, 1794. An answer is raquested." There is nothing on record to show what General Montgomery's answer was iu the premises, but it is pleas ant to fancy that the man who built and occupied the interesting old dwel ling at Mill and Bloom streets, now regarded with so much pride as a land marls, found it convenient to accept the invitation aud that thus the fath er of Danville did actually dine wit'i the Father of his Country. There is also a letter from benjamin Franklin bearing date of May 27, 178fi, addressed to William Montgom ery when the latter was "President of the Courts of Common Pleas, Quarter Sessions and Orphans Court of the County of Northumberland. The let ter detls with the troubles iu the Wy oming Valley and illustrates the con fidence reposed in William Montgom ery's wisdom and integrity by such an eminent Statesman as Fiauklin. In part Franklin writes as follows: "The Council has received your let ter by General Bull containing the ac count of fresh disturbances at Wyom ing. We are sensible of your atten tion to the public welfare manifested in these despatches and desire that you would continue to seud us what further information you may from time to time obtain,using in the mean while what influence you have to quiet the minds of the unhappy settl ers there, bv assuring them that there is the best disposition in the govern ment to treat them equitably and with kindness and (o take them under its protection on their demonstrating by their peaceable and orderly behavior that their seutimeuts expressed in their late petitiou are sincere and that they aro truly disposed to become good citizens. lam with much esteem, sir, your most humble servant, B. Fianklin, Pres'd't." There is among the letters one from William Montgomery to his wife writ ten at Wyoming while a Commission er at that place on April 21, 1783, which is quite characteristic in its way, and showing that in addition to his other virtues William Montgomery was a dutiful and a loving husband and father. Following the letter is in part. My Dear: I wrote"*you yesterday, but havmgan opportunity now which I think will be quicker 1 gladly em brace it iu order to relieve your mind, but too easily imprest with apprehen sions for my safety, that I am here safe and •well, that there is no appre hension of the least danger from the savages. The people here are very quiet and I hope that we will finish our negotiations successfully. I believe they will cede their claims to the Pennsylvanians on certain terms which the Pennsylvanians are willing to graut. Thus there is probability of peace here as well as elsewhere. A circumstance which will be to our ad vantage as well as comfort, as it will promote the trade aud intercourse of our branch: it svill open the way to employment iu my new business and tend to the more genteel support and education of a rising family. For this purpose I can cheerfully undergo all the fatigues; nor will I consider it- Other than a pleasure if it contribute to the enjoyment of anything whereby I cau gratify so amiable a person as your self, which to do hand I hope will continue to be the pride and glory of your Affec't Hb'd, WM.
