SBII-GENTENNIAL AT GROVE cam The concluding service of the Semi centennial of the Grove Presbyterian church was held Tuesday eve. Owing to a breakdown at tha Borough light plant the streets were so dark as to he well nigh impassable, a circumstance which kept dowu attendance some what. Nevertheless a good-size*! con gregation was preseut. Trie exercises were intensely interesting. After an organ prelude by Miss Ruth Gearhart and the singing of a hymn, Rev. S V. Bedickiau, of Washington ville, offered prayer. Miss Margaret Ammerinan sang a solo, " My Redeem er and My Lord," whnli was follow ed with messages from former pastors. Under the above head a letter was read from Mrs. Collins, whose has band, C. J. Collins, D. D .was pastor from 185(5 to 18<55. Au extract from the autobiography of Rev. J G. Car nachan, LL. D.. who was pastor from 1866 to 1869, alluding very feelingly to the people of the Gtove oharch. was also read to the congregation. The choir then rendered au aiithim, "Send Out Thy Light." after which au address was delivered by Rev. E. O. Armstrong. Mr. Armstrong spoke at length on the "Three-fold Function of the Christian Church " by w«v of introduction dwelling upo i his so journ iu Danville and in reviewing the progress of events that marked his pastorate of the Grove Church. He rejoioed at the advancement made by the church but was saddened by the vacant pews —by the fact tint so many faces have vauislied from earth. Mr. Armstrong was followed by Rev. R. H. Van Pelt, who was [nstor from 18S9 to 1874 Mr. Vin Pelt said his address would be »»«*-■* " a l' ialn ..cart talk." He was in a vein of remarkably good hamor and scored a number of happy points. He dwelt upon his reception as a young man when he came to the Grove church and then beoame reminiscent. He graphioallv told of the last sermon in the old brick church and described the teariug down of its walls. While the present church was iu building a part of the time the congregation wor shipped on the third floor of the build ing occupied by the First National Bank.cornnr of Mill and Bloom Ftreets. A solo was rendered by Irviu H. V annan. Next came the greetings, in which Rev. Dr. Hemingway, of Bloomsburg, Moderator, spoke tor the Northumber land Presbytery, Rev Dr. M. L. Shindel, as President,for the Danville Ministerial Association, aud Rev. James E. Hutchison, pastor, for the Mahoning Presbyterian church, of Danville. The evening closed with a reuuio-i in the lecture rooM, during which re freshments were served. Barn Raising at Limestone. A social function that was useful as well as pleasant—a barn raising -took place Saturday at the farm in Lime atone township occupie 1 by P.tineas C. Welliver and owned by Mrs. D. M Boyd, of this city. A large number of guests gathered daring the morning to partake of the hospitality provided by Mr. and Mrs. Welliver and to assi-t iu the work, before noon the heavy timbers had been put iu plaoo and the work com pleted. During the early part of the after noon an elaborate dinn> r was served. The remainder of the time was spent in merryuiakiug. Those present were: Mrs. D. M Boyd aud Joseph Boyd, of this city, Mr. aud Mrs. Curtis Minremoyer, Mr. and Mrs. David Cooper, Mrs. Sylvester Umstead.Mrs. Mincemoyer.Miss Maud Cooper, Ambrose Cromis.John Strouse.

Miss Carrie Isabel Russell, who was graduated from the Danville Hospital Training School, class of 1904, with first houors, left Saturday evening for San Barnardino,California, where she has accepted a position in the High lands Hospital. THE HALLBWE'BH CELEB FiATION The Hallowe'en celebratiou Tuesday night was like those of others years only it was worse. It began early and | continued until late. It was scarcely six o'clock when the tin horns began to toot and as the hour of midnight approached still an occasional horn could be heard. Rut of all the things that happened betweeu the beginning and the eud it would take a big vol ume to describe. The illusion was nearly complete, indeed, aud for a while it might luve beeu taken for the time of the super natural wheu the spirits of the visible aud the invisible world were abroad aud were laboring with one end in view and that was to make noise. The , large stock of masks on sale at the local stores began to show a depleted appearance as Hallowe'en approached. Probably never before was such a large stock of these disposed of in Danville. As a result all sorts of beings were abroad on the streets at night—black men, red men, Turks, etc., all scowl ' ing or grinning iu various stages of imbecility or degeneracy ; boys with ! sheep's heads or the heads of other animals aud rigged up in all sorts of outlandish costumes. It was one end less promeuade —some times it was a rush, wheu people who did not beloug to the serenaders were sorely jostled about on the sidewalk. Above all were the horns, each one of which seemed to be worsa than the other. The Chief-ot-Police had issued au edict against throwing flour or like | substance about the street, which are pretty sure to injure clothing. Wheth er this order was violated to any ex tent has not been learned,but the boys aud girls made good use of corn and eveu gravel aud ou every side the game of tick tack could be heard as windows and doors were merciless ly peppered while the serenaders scampered along. The Chief-of-Police had also notified the public that the marking of buildings,etc., with chalk or any thiug of the kind would not be tolerated and that offenders would be arrested. As if to defy the officer the boys went out on the new bridge, which they fancied was beyond his jurisdiction, and marked up the iron work in a shameful manner. The most of this was done on Monday night. What the outcome of this act will be is uncertain. A reward should be of fered for information leading to the arrest of the offending parties when a good example should be made of them. How many door steps and how many gates drifted away from their moor ings last night is wholly problematic al. It is hoped that there will be no lawlessness to record as taking place last night. It is the one night when the boys aud girls own the town and it is hoped that they had a good time without interfering with the rights and property of older people. There were some Hallowe'en parties about town iu wiiich many clever schemes were carried out to suggest the wierd aud supernatural. Messrs. Cook and Sechler , are the friends of the taxpay ers. Is there any stronger reason why they should be : elected. i Danville Defeats Northumberland The Danville High School foot hall 1 team played the Northumberland High School Saturday at Northumberland, winning by a score of 2 to 0.

The System Lives On Good Rich Blood i People Who Lack the Proper Quantity and Quality of Blood Fall Victims to Every Disease That's Prevalent. Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Pills. The blood is the medium through which every tissue,every organ is sup plied with the material it feeds npon and rebuilds itself with. Take away that nourishment by letting the blood run down in quantity and quality and you take away the power of an organ or tissue to resupply waste or rebuild itself. In other words, the system t-tarves; color,appetite, steadiness, en ergy, vigor, vitality—all are lost and a condition of mental and physical prostration sets iu. This condition Dr A. W. Chase's Nerve Pills posi tively cure by their power to manu facture goo 1, rich, nutritious, oxygen carrying blood, a blood that carries to every organ the very material it lives and thrives upon. Mr. Georee Horkins of Westinehonse Aye nue, Wilmerding, Pa., says: "I began to use Dr. A. W. Chase's Nervs Pills in Pittsburg. I was at the time badly run down, weak—nervous —could not eat—cold all the time, uiy blood was thin,arid did not sleep well. The medicine put me in splendid shape rapidly and easily, giving trie steady nerves—a fine appetite—restful sleep —a general feeling of energy and vigor and good rich blood that showed in the way my color came back.

SCHOOL LAWS POZZLK DIRECTORS The school directors in many of the towns of the State and especially in the rural districts are having quite a good deal of trouble with the vaccina tion quest ion : Superintendent Dixon, of the State Board of Health, has issued a procla mation iu which he declares it to be the purpose of the State Board to hold each and everv teacher responsible for the enforcement of the law. Its viola tion will be punished by a heavy line. The teachers are not at all to be blam ed because they are anxious to escape the penalty. Many persons absolutely refuse to have their children vaccinat ed Here is the difficulty. The Health Board declares that no child shall re main iu school who has not been suc cessfully vaccinated and ou the other hand the compulsory attendance law declares as emphatically that all chil dren between certain ages must be in school. These apparently conflicting laws are what the school directors are wrestling with. In Montour Couutv in a few of the rural districts there was considerable difficulty in bringing about vaccina tion as required by the school law,but at last accounts the difficulty every where was pretty well adjusted. In Danville the law as to vaccination was easily complied with at the open ing of the term. Iu cases where the parents were unable to stand the ex pense, the children were tumid over jto the physicians in charge of the poor district and they performed the vaccination free of charge.

TAKING BATHS FOB KDbllH Our townsman B. F. Foulk, who is taking tlie rheumatism cure at Mt. I Clemens, Mich , writes an exceeding ly eutertaiuiug letter to kiis friend,M. H. Scliram. Mr. Foulk, keenly ob serving and well-informed, has seen and stored away in his mind for fu ture reflection a multiplicity of facts more perhaps than the average man would have taken In in half a dozen trips. He describes what he saw in his usual witty and characteristic style. Tiirough the courtesy of Mr. i Scliram the letter is here produced: Friend Scliram I still live. I came here bv way of ScrantoD, Buffalo, Ni agara Falls and Detroit, leaving home at 5.43 Oct. lDtli, and arriving at 5.80, October 20th. It was an almost con tinuous ride of 650 miles. The Falls was in gala attire, t|jo river being a raging flood from receut heavy rains. It looked like an old friend, but not very impressive as viewed from the Michigan Central cars. There was quite a "bunch" ot water Roing over, especially at the horse shoe bend. The part of Canada which the M. C. R. R. traverses is low and wet. Stumps in the fields galore. Stump fences abound and once in a while, an oc cupied log cabin looms up and disap pears. We flashed two woodcock at one boggy place, both of which would have been an "easy mark." I am taking baths at the Fountain Bath House, which is conceded to have the best remedial water for rheumat ism and kindred diseases. I have a good attendant, who was recommend ed to me by John Craikshank. I made him my personal friend by the above recommendation. After the first three or four baths I got infinitely worse, in fact when I would get out of bed in the morning I expected to fall apait. but now after seven baths I feel pretty good, and am free frtrn pain The lameness still continues to some ex tent. but is improving. The hot room which von enter before taking your bath is heated to about lfio degrees, aud after being in about two minutes, the thought enters your mind that if yju survive, you will surely lead a better life, hot after taking the baths, things look different. Should you get any of the water in your month, which you will if you talk to yoar rubber, you will probably keep close watch on your muntil thereafter. The place has nine bath houses, twenty fine hotels aud I think about 70? boarding houses. I did uot count them but we will leave it go at that. It has a population of over 9000 all supported by the people who come here for the baths. The streets are well paved, the houses comparatively new, and situated at least 150 feet from front to front, wide attificial stone pavements, with numberless trees abounding in all the streets, which must make it an ideal dwelling place in summer. The laud is level, whit h is true of all Southern Michigan I <pent three years in the State, further west, long ago,and ltked it verv much.

I)F A CENTURY "Aunt Peggy." Mrs. Margaret Sech ler, yesterday celebrated her ninety- i uiutli birthday. It is probably the < most remarkable case of longevity that i ever occurred in this section. Mrs. Sechler, Saturday, was visited by a i representative of the Morning News, who had a pleasant chat with the ven erable woman, who lacks but one year of being a centenarian, for the fact i must be stated that "Aunt Peggy," ' although old in years is young in ev ery other respect and talks quite en tertainingly. Her faculties are preierv ed to a marvelous degree considering her great age. Mentally she stems as strong as the average person of eighty years. Her sight is defective which cuts otf the pleasure of reading, but she hears quite well. Her memory as it relates to recent years, it is true, is somewhat at fault,so that in conversa tion she, gets along much better when the years of her middle life or giil liODd are dwelt upou. Twenty years ago "Aunt Peggy" was old. Since then childreu have been born aud have grown.to manhood aud to womanhood and still "Aunt Peggy" lives on. For years past,while the old woman was climbing up in the nineties with each recurring birthday the question was asken: "Will Aunt Peggy livo to see another birthday will she grow much older?" During the last few years it has became a question: "Will she live to round out a huudred years?" "Aunt Peggy" herself has her own views ot tne mat ter. Overhearing a remark Saturday that her prospects were bright for liv ing to be a hundred years old she said:! "Perhaps I may; if is only a little j longer ,time to live." The aged wo-| man incidentally remarked that the years to her seem to fly very fast. "Aunt Peggy" lov< s to dwell upon the changes that have occurred during her long life. Her birthplace is only across the fields from the Koaher homestead, Blooiu road, win re she is speuding bar declining years As a 1 girl of fonrteen through the woods ' which then lined Bloom road, she car- j ried cherries to town and sold tiiem for six rents per quart at tin only ; store in Danville,which stood on A'est | Market street near the .-it; afterward occupied by the Academy. Later Peter Baldy opened a store in a log building j near the river. Nothing so foxcibly j illustrates the long span of her life as j the fact that the great Pennsylvania 1 canal was conceived Pf as an enter prise in her early womanhood, was constructed and for more than a gen eration was a factor in transportation until an lor the gradual change ot con- . ditious it passed out of existence, j while the aged woman, who was here , long before the canal, still lives tore- j late anecdotes that bear upon the old i waterway. Tli ire were croakers in the days j fore the oanal as well a-* after it and "Aunt P g/y" leaned forward iu her chair an 1 laughed hearthv as she told how the wise people ol that day iidi eulel the idea that two mules should be able to draw a load of sixty,eighty or more tons, even though it wete ou a canal boat "Aunt Pegyv" seemed to find much amusement in tli • thought that a certain farmer was rai-ing pota toes in the bed of the old canal, a cir cumstance which clearly shows that a new epoch has come to pass in which the old waterway with all of us is only a memory. The trolley, the telephone, &c., aie »»>o utrrt put ticai achievements of "Aunt Peggy's" time and she laugh ed again as she wondered what the impression of the old timers who had misgiving* as to the caual would be if they could come back to earth at the present day. "Auut Peggy" herself takes veiy kindly to the modern in ventions and was among the first to ride to Bloomsburg in the tr. Hey last fall. Site stated Saturday that she would like to ride to Danville,but she was not quito sure whether this would come to pass. Mrs. Secbler, whose maiden name was Sanders,was one of fourteen chil dren and the last survivor. There is indeed, a great probability of her liv ing to reach the ceutury mark aud of surviving even beyond that limit. "I Thank The Lord!" cried Hauuah Plant, of Little Rock.

The case, j : which is brought here from Lycoming ! county,is that of Myrtle Dugan,child, ' : aud Howard M. Dugan,parent, vs. the j Pennsylvania Railroad Company and ; is a consolidated case, a methol of | trial made allowable hy a recent Act of the Legislature. The case, too, is unique iu the fact that while the in jury was sustained by coming in con tact with P. &R. Railway track the Pennsylvania Railroad Company is held responsible. Edward S Gear hart of this city is attorney for the plaiut ills. Miss Myrtle Dugan,one of the plain tills in the oase and the one who sus tained the injury, is niueteeu years of ago. Her father, the other plaintiff, is the owner of an iron works in Mui;cy. On October 28, 1901, oue year ayo on Saturday, Miss Dugan with a companion started out for a drive to Montgomery, 8 miles distant. After dark iu attempting to drive over a certain grade crossing where the Peun svlvauia and the P. & R. Railway tracks run nearly parallel the carriage was partially overturned and Miss Dagan sustained injury. At tint time, it is alleged, the Pennsylvania track was being raised—at that particular point it had been elevated some two feet and been left in an unfiuished state with no led light to indicate danger. The wagon road crosses the tracks of the two railroads diagonally and it is alleged that Miss Dugau aud l her companion had driven over the P. j & R. track in safety and were in the j act of crossing the Pennsylvania track when they struck the abrupt risf. The hoiso mounted the elevated track and was in the act of dragging the buggy after him ;one of the front wheels had climbed the acclivity when to the diagonal direction the vehicle leaned over at a sharp angle and j threatened to upset. At this crisis, it I is alleged, a sharp whistle was eouud ! Ed which was taken to indicate an ap ! proaching train. Iu her alarm Miss ; Dugan leaped out of the carriage and fell or was thrown against the rail of J the P. & R. Railway track sustaining a fracture of her ribs and injuries of | a permanent character.

PITTSTON PLAYS SUPERB GAME Tho Pittston basket ball five, thai played the Danville team at the Arm ory Saturday put up the fiuepr, fastest and best all around game that has been witnessed in this city iu many a day, aud performed, before the large aud enthusiastic crowd that attended the game, the unique aud ex traouliuary exploit of defeating a Dau ville team. The Danville team played a strong game, aud fought to the la-t ditch, but they were simply overpowered, outplayed—aud beateu. The visitors exhibited in their playing many good qualities that the locals lacked; first they played together, each seeming to understand the others' work. This mutual knowledge of each others' mode of playing and their superb passing made their team work beautiful to watch. The second something iu which the Pittston boys surpassed the Dau ville players was in good shooting. Their shooting was not merely accur- sensational,while tha Danville team with the exception of Welliver, was faulty to a degree in their basket throwing. That Danville made so good a show ing on the tally sheet, was due to spurts of good form that only served the double purpose of landing here and there a goal and reminding the older basket ball enthusiasts of better days, before they disappeared. If tho players of basket ball in Dan ville would receive a little kindly meant advice, we would tell them to "get together" both in spirit and play. The line up: Dauville,. Pittston.
