SHE VON WAGES «r 12JILE m Over the hills to Danville is every step of twelve regulation miles, but the trip by foot is only a jolly lark on a moonlight night. At lea*t Miss Mary Beaver, of Danville, a sister of Mrs. Russell Kelly, of Sunbury, thinks so. and she ought to know for she feasted on "Huvlers" New Year s day lor making the trip. It was all the result of a dare. New Year's eve a party of young folks gath ered at Miss Bertha Cromwell's Dan ville home to bid adieu to old 190.) and welcome young Mr. 1906. Cards and Raines not being available to hnrrv off the old year 011 account of it being Sunday, a moonlight -troll was sug gested by one of the young gallants. All agreed and pairing off in couples the party sallied forth for a promen ade. Conversation drifted from one subject to another until finally it reach ed romance and then "dares. The latter proved to be Miss Beaver s loug suit. One of the young men about mid night remarking that Miss Beaver did not dare to walk to Sunbury,the young lady quickly accepted the challenge. Calling for a volunteer from the cot erie of young men to accompany her Miss Beaver was somewhat embarrass ed in making her choice, as all were "just dying" to serve her. Young Mr. Paul Vauuau, however, was the chos en one. With a merry hurrah from the others as a send off, Miss Beaver setting the pace, which was indeed quite lively "the dare" couple crossed the bridge to South Danville and struck out over the hills tor Sunbury. Ping pong ideas were cast to the winds by Miss Beaver and pedestrian records we re. smashed with ease. On more, than one occasion her escort complain ed of being tired and wanted to rest, but she turned a deaf ear to all such seemingly foolish ideas and kept cut ting off mile after mile, while the man in the moon with the smile that won t rub off nodded his head in encourage ment ami acted as referee. No foot pads were met on the way and so lar as is known the trip was without a single sensational incident. But 7a. m. New Year's Day when Mr. and Mrs. Kelley came downstairs they found the couple in their parlor and were greeted tliusly, "Happy New Year. Just came down tor a little walk.'' Miss Beaver was as fresh as a lark and coaxed her escort to tramp back, but he was "all in"and they return ed home on the train. Miss Beaver was the "Lion of tlie Hour" in Danville and feasted royally 011 Huylers and wears a brand new pair of gloves at the expense of those who reckoned unwisely about her ability to accomplish big as well as little things.—Sunbury Daily. New Year's Entertainment. The New Year's entertainment ami social at the Y. M. <'. A. was some thing of a de*i»arture this year, hut notwithstanding proved a tine success. A large number of people attended tilling the hall comfortably. The so cial was largely informal in its nat ure,the people being at liberty to come and go and to move about at pleasure, the seats in the hall being arranged to suit the occasion. Some two hours were delightfully whiled away.

JACOB WEIIER'S JOYFUL NEWS Unmistakably flit' happiest mini in Danville yesterday was Jacob Wcinier, the Hebrew shoemaker on Lower Mul berry street, who hail good reason to believe that liis wife and four children had fallen victims to the cruel mobs at Kishenev. The noon delivery of mail brought him a letter from liis wife, which conveyed the joyful tidings that they were all alive and well—that they had already got beyond the land of the Czar with its bloodshed and horror and were safe at Amsterdam awaiting the departure of the ship that is to bring them to tlte new world, where lies safety, freedom and where awaits them the love and protection of a kind husband and father, who risk ed so much for the little family's wel fare, In two weeks' time, the letter stated, they would all be in Danville. The shoemaker laughed in his joy and he fairly danced as lie told of re ceiving the letter and tried to explain its contents. His wife had written that the children were on the tiptoe of delight and expectation at the pros pects of meetiug the father,from whom they had been separated for nearly three years. In the interim the baby, six months old when the parting took place, has grown to be quite a boy as shown by a photograph received a few months ago and is now wearing trousers. The shoemaker has only a short time longer to wait until his family will be with him. Not until then will he know the full chapter of thrlling events hat caused the delay in the mails and prevented his family from sailing for America as he had planned. State (jives Pointers. State Highway Commissioner Joseph \V. Hunter has issued a bulletin sum marizing the features of the new law governing the election of road super visors in townships. The salient points, to which atten tion is called, are : • Beginning with the February elec tion, every township of the sec ond class in the State must elect three supervisors. In any township which now has three supervisors, or other officers having charge of roads, elected under existing laws, no new election shall be required, except as the terms of these officers expire. The Board of Supervisors of each township is required to organize on the tirst Monday of March. < )ue of their number is chosen chairman and another secretary. The treasurer must not be a member of the board. The board is required to meet at least once a mouth, two constituting a quorum. The sujtervisors receive no comi<en-a tiou for their services, but actual ex -1 tenses are to l>e paid. The treasurer receives compensation not to exceed p:-r centum of the money handled by him. The secretary of the board may receive payment for the work per formed l»y him as secretary. The hoard has authority to levy a tax rate not greater than 10 mills ; the levying of an additional lOmills being authorized by an order from the Court of Quarter Sessions. In addition to the regular levy, the b lard must assess .<! orcrr tnrtablr jjrr^on. Upon a petition from af least twenty live taxpayers, the Court of Quarter sessions shall authorize a special elec tion to be held at the time of the Feb ruary election, when the question of abolishing the work tax shall be decid ed by a majority vote of the electors. A township which thus abolishes the work tax is entitled to receive from the State a sum in cash equal to 15 jter centum of the actual amount of cash tax collected by the township. Each board is required to divide its township into districts of not less than five miles each,but there is noth ing to prohibit the dividing of the township into districts liaviug more than five miles each, or one district of the whole township. A roadmaster must be employed for each district. Road masters are required to work nit on the roads themselves, to oversee men employed and to carry into effect the instructions of the Board of Sujier visors. No member of the Board of Sujiervisors cm lie employed a> road master. The board, may, if it deems advis able. make a contract with any citizen of the township for keeping in repair of not more than three miles of road. < >ll all road taxes paid before June 1 an abatement of."i jter centum is made. The full amount is required to be paid on all taxes paid between June 1 and November I. After November l."» per centum in penalty is added. The board is authorized to purchase any material,tools or machinery neces sary for making an 1 repairing roads. A township can join with one or more adjoining townships or boroughs in joint ownership of machinery. Full records must lie kept by the board of it> proceedings and audited by the township auditors, and an an nual report is required to be made to the State Highway Commissioner on or Itefore March L;t iu each vear.

DIED AFTER BRIEF ILLNESS Mrs. Mary Gallagher,mother of Miss Rose Gallagher,the well known school teacher of the Borough, departed tliis life on Saturday morning at 9 o'clock, after a very brief illness. Mrs. Gallagher had been ailing only for one week ; death was quite unex pected and came as a great shock to the family. She was able to be about and along with her daughter was out as late as Thursday evening. All ar rangements were made for a happy holiday week, but death came as a sad ending. The deceased, was the widow of Michael Gallagher, who died about eleven years ago. She was 73 years of age and along with her husband emi grated to this country from Ireland in early life. It was before the days of the railroad and the last stage of her journey here was made by stage coach. She was married in Danville and resided here continuously until her death. She was a woman of most esti mable character, of generous impulses and kind sympathetic nature. Her demise has left a vacant place at the fireside that never can l>e filled, while throughout the neighborhood she will be missed in many ways. In addition to Miss Rose Gallagher, the deceased is survived by three other daughters: Catherine,the eldest,(Mrs. P. 11. McCaffrey) Sailie (Mrs. Griffin) and Mary, I Mrs. Charles Beyers. ) A nephew, Michael Dougherty, was rear ed by the deceased and has always been as one of the family. The funeral of Mrs. Mary Gallagher took place from St. Joseph's Catholic church Tuesday morning and was largely attended. The services, which included high requiem mass,were conducted by Fatli er Hilary (James Welsh,) of Scrauton, nephew of the deceased. The pall bearers were: Thomas Gill, James Finnegan, Bernard Shoveliu, James Dailey, John F. Tooley and C. P. Murray. The funeral proceeded to the cemetery in a Danville and Bloonisburg trolley car. The following out of town persons attended the funeral: Thomas Gall agher ami three sous. James, Peter and Bernard, of Johnstown; John Welsh, of Philadelphia :Mrs. Lafferty, Peter McCaffrey, Mrs. Mary Haines mau, Mrs. Bernard Lafferty, Miss Susan McCaffrey, of Scrauton ; James Grogan, of Luzerne.

Another victory was added to Dan ville's long list when the local team defeated the Ashland aggregation at the Armory New Year" \s afternoon by a score of 51 to 20. The Ashland team is composed of good fast basket ball players, but the members of the visiting team, how ever. were not able to make much of a showing. They played a hard, stren uous game individually, but did not seem able to play together. They set a fast pace but the Danville tossers were nearly always just a little faster. Some of the finest basket throwing ever seen at the Armory was done in the game Monday afternoon by the local team. The game was very ex citing and almost sensational from start to finish.

TWO BEGISTRA tION DISTRICTS The uew art to provide for the im mediate registration of all births and I deaths throughout the Commonwealth went iuto effect on Monday. Tlie new law if carried out will entail consider able work upon physicians, undertak ers, sextons and others aud these have [all been apprised of their duties in the premises by copies of the Act forward ed to them by the Bureau of Vital Statistics. Montour county has been divided in to two Registration Districts. Dr. C. Shultz has been appointed Registrar in one of these consisting of Danville Borough, Mayberry, Cooper, Mahon ing, Valley. Liberty and West Hem lock townships. Of the other District taking in the remainder of the county William M. Robinson, of Washiugtou ville has been appointed as Registrar. Eacli local registrar is obliged to have a deputy registrar whose duty it lis to act in his stead iii case of ab | sence, illness or disability. Miss Har riet Mapstone lias been appointed deputy in Dr. Shultz's district. Section 5 provides that the body of any person whose death occurs in the State shall not be interred, uor deposit ed in a vault or tomb nor removed from nor iuto any registration district until a permit for burial, removal or other disposition shall be properly is sued by the registrar of the registra tion district in which death occurs. The certificate of death is a volum inous affair and contains items, the statistical particulars covering every conceivable circumstance of life and death. It asks for not only place of death, street and number, date and place of birth, sex, color, single, mar ried. widowed or divorced, but also the name of father and madieu name of mother, birth place of each, state or foreign country. The statement of facts relating to the disposition of the Ixidy must be signed by the undertaker or person acting as such. The undertaker shall he responsible for obtaining and filing the certificate of death with the reg istrar and securing a burial or remov al permit. The undertaker shall deliver the burial permit to the sexton and no sex tous shall inter or otherwise dispose of a body unless it is accompanied by a burial, removal or transit permit. The medical certificate shall be made and signed by the physician last in at tendance 011 the deceased. Like the certificate of death it is sweeping in the extreme and involves no end of work. The registration of births omits no details and the attending physician or midwife who has to file a certificate will have plenty to do under the new act.

Those of our eitizues whose avoca ' tions Saturday night or yesterday led them over the canal culvert at Ferry street beheld a good object lesson to | show what may follow when the au i thorities fail to exact of the masses a ; proper respect for the municipality or tolerate practices that are out of all accord with cleanliness, hygiene and I civic pride. That the ojd canal, an eyesore to lie gin with, has been rendered double unsightly by the dumping of ashes and what not over the banks and along the edge of the culvert under the pretitise of aiding to till up the old water way is one of those facts that are self evid i cut.. This is bad enough, but as the offenders are not interfered with it is not strange that the practice has been carried further. The acme was reach ed on Saturday when one individual dumped a big load of trash right on the cult iit tli. middle ol" Pcrr> street. The term "trash" is used ad visedly. as among the contents with ashes as a base were turkey feathers, old excelsior, broken bottles and con demned i Kit a toes. The load was not even properly leveled over, but seemed literally dumjied on the street, the driver no doubt finding excuse in the fact that there was a slight depression iu the ground on that spot. By last evening the deposit was pretty well leveled over by the action of the wheels passing, when the above named ar ticles were some which had worked their way to the surface. Of course our Borough Council will never tolerate anything like this. Be sides the man who (lumped the trash on the spot is liable to arrest for viol ating the State law passed by the last Legislature, which prohibits the cast ing of trash of this or any other sort upon the streets of any Borough. It is certainly somebody's duty to get busy at once and discover who dumped the trash in the street. The next thing that Council should do is to stoji once and for all the dump ing of ashes and all that is implied by the name into the canal. If the old waterway is to be tilled up go about it in some well sustained systematic way that will bring results and not encour age niggardly and slovenly practices that only add to the eyesore. Again, if a street in the heart of the Borough needs filling up let some ma terial suitable for road building be selected and not a lot of stuff that is disgusting to the eye and that will be scattered over the square by the first wind that rises. Civic pride should be cultivated which can not be accomplished in a better way than by enforcing the Bor ough ordinance, which prohibits the dumping of ashes anywhere within the Borough. What a stranger's im pression might have been who entered town by way of Ferry street yesterday it would be hard to imagine. The soothing and comforting effects of D. Witt's Witch Hazel Salve, when ap plied to piles sores, cuts, boils, etc., subdues pa in almost instantly.

THEY ARE THE LAZIEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. A Hill Tribe of India Whose Men Will .Neither limit Slor Work und Wlio Are Proud of Their Ileputn- j lion For Dimnriirhl Indolence. In these days of push ami energy it > sounds strange to talk of people as be- i ing lazy, and still the Todas, a hill tribe of India, are the laziest people in the world. The Todas are not ashamed of their reputation and are free to confess that j they know of nothing so foolish and stupid as work. Their one and only pursuit Is the raising of buffaloes. They are far too indolent to follow the chase. An ax is their only weapon, although they know how to make others. The? use this for waging war and for fel - j leg trees. They will not till the lane, j considering this unnecessary labor. To | make housekeeping easier all their nat- j ural products are held in common. The idea of property is only restricted to the hut, its contents and live stock. The buffaloes, which they own in large quantities, furnish them with skins for clothing and the hut, and the meat is used as food. But milk is their principal diet. They do not even relish the idea of milking their cattle. The head milkers are the only ones that are to be persuaded to do this la bor. These men are chosen from the class of "peiki," or "sous of God." They are the priests and practice celib acy. Although the priests tend to the cattle, each householder owns his cat tle. Much as these men dislike the caring for their cattle, they find farming a less dignified calling. Some years ago they went to war with their neighbors, the Badaga and Kotas, as they might be utile to levy a tax of one-eighth on their grain products. When their grain grows scarce they live on roots and berries. They will sell their land or give it away, but they will not culti vate It at any price. The building of bamboo huts does not interest them any more than the culti vating of the soil, and they make this task easy by making the boys cut the bamboo and their wives build the huts. It is not unusual for three families to share one abode. The men are often «o lazy that they cannot afford one wife alone, but even this does not worry them. Two or three brothers manage to support one wife. Indolent and slothful, they sit listless for hours, un concerned about all things. What they know they know well. They are intel ligent within certain narrow limits, but they are too lazy to Increase their store of knowledge. Whatever has to be done must be cared for by the women and children. Strangely, their appearance does not disclose tiiis most marked characteris tic. They are tall and well proportion ed. They look like Roman senators as they walk wrapped in skins resembling the ancient toga. Their appearance is not only prepossessing, but bold and self reliant. Many an amusing story is told of this small hill tribe, numbering about 400 men. An American missionary was working among them when one day he saw some women and boys building a hut of baiulcw. lie inquired why the men were not performing this labor, * and one woman explained, "Husband mine don't work; me and boys build house." The missionary made no further com ment, but when the hut was built he told the husband that he must build another hut, as he could not live In a home made by women and children. But the surprised Toda answered: "No, no. Me no work. Man lias boys and wife to work." The Toda meant what he said. Al though the missionary argued and final ly horsewhipped the native, he could not get him to build a hut. An equally amusing story is told by an English officer. He was so taken by the handsome appearance of one of the natives he wanted to take him to England and place him in his own regi ment. The otlicer gave the native skins and silks until the Toda prom ised to become an English soldier. He was delighted with the officer's bright, gay uniform. He did not feel bad about leaving his country, his wife and children, but when lie was told that soldiers work he said: "Me no be an English soldier; me be Toda. Me no work; me no like work." When the English officer tried to per suade him lie made answer: "lake ! wife and boys; they be English sol ! diers-like work. Me stay home and rest; me lie Toda."—Chicago Tribune. Canary Seed.

A I-'n ;ich Canadian New Year's cus tom now nearly obsolete was that known as La Quete de I'Enfant Jesus tile collection for the infant Jesus. This collection was managed by the parish priest, who was driven round among hi- parishioners by the senior the beadle. The gifts that he thus gathered "for the love of the infant Jesus" on the festival of the circumcision were distributed among the poor. Intimately connected with this was another practice of col lecting alms for the poor, known as La Guignolee or La Lgnotee. The words signify both a custom and a song. On the eve of the new year bands of youthful niasqueraders serenaded the vari ni- residents of the locality after nightfall with music and song, knock ing at (1 >ors and windows and begging for offerings for the poor, generally eatables, with threats of revenge if gifts were refused. A piece of pork with the tail adhering, called La Chi gnee. was the traditional offering ex pected. Ot*.l Time Football. Football has never been a very gen tle game, to judge from what Master Stubbcs says about it in his "Anato mic of Abuses," published in 1583: "For, as concerning football playing, I protest unto you it may rather be call ed a friendly kinde of tight than a play of recreation, a bloody and murther ing practice than a sport or pastime, for dooth not every one lye in waight for his adversarie, seeking to over throw him and to picke him ou his nose, though it be on hard stones, so that by this mealies sometimes their ueeks are broken, sometimes their j backs, sometimes their legs, some j times their armes, sometimes one part thrust out of joynt, sometimes anoth er; sometimes the noses gush out with blood; sometimes their eyes start out."
