Not only did the bad reports involve girls that were considerably under eighteen years of age, but they quite conclusively established the fact that the gentle creatures were drunk. A gentleman was present at council meeting, who Itad attended a number of the dances and without denying the humiliating allegation stated—and his explanation was accepted by council — that the dance was in no way responsi ble for the condition of the girls or any consequent disorder. He admitted that girls of almost any age are likely to appear at the dance, but he stated that attendance of girls under eighteen years is discouraged and unless they misrepresent their age to the manage ment they are generally obliged to leave the building. It has occurred that intoxicated females, who imbibed elsewhere, have appeared at the arm ory,but we have the gentleman's word for it that they were immediately forced to depart. As a result of it all the burgess and council feel convinced that conditions exist on our streets after dark, which no well regulated town can afford to tolerate. The police at all times have authority to arrest persons intoxicated or guilty of disorderly conduct, but it is pretty evident that something else should be done to improve the condi tions, and to separate young girls—and also hoys—from evil associations, which can be accomplished at least in ! part by keeping them off the street at night. Hence a curfew ordinance sug gests itself. No action was taken by council, but the matter was discussed with much earnestness ami was held over for future consideration. Hornier Townsman a Prospector. A letter lias been received from Em erson Keim, son of John Keim, the brick manufacturer. Emerson left Danville a year or so ago and is now prosj>ectiug for gold in the neighbor hood of Manhattan, Nevada. According to his letter our young townsman is having the usual experi ences of the frontiersman or prospect or. He writes that he is about forty t 9«» Ht n, n ., about three weeks ago, his tent being the third that was struck in the place, which is now growing rapidly. In making the journey from Manhattan, lie states that he "walked forty miles with his bedding on his back and a stick in his hand." It was a hard trip and one to be remembered, but he feels that he will be rewarded, as the place promises to become one of the richost ever discovered. He has already got 14 claims and is looking forward to fabulous wealth. Emerson writes that lie is getting to be quite an expert in prospecting and that he "can now locate, a mine with the best of them." He finds life in the mining camp full of charm and lie enjoys it very much. It is [an usual experience for him, he says, to lie at night out under the stars with only a blanket over him and thirty miles away from every other human being. His only companion is a mule, which tie rides in his prospect ing tours. When at the ranch he gets up in the morning at 5:30 o'clock; at 6:30 lie starts out. He generally puts in a full day returning at 6 p. m. Ho rides thirty to forty miles each trip,examin ing on the way all kinds of rocks for some kind of minerals. The life is a rough one and full enough of adven ture to please anyone. The principal food of the prospector is beans, bacon ami crackers. The country is full of springs and the best of water is ob tained anywhere. Wages are high. Unskilled labor is worth five dollars per day, while mech anics and the like command eight to ten dollars. Eight hours constitute a day. A GUARANTEED ODRE FOR PILES Itching. Blind, Bleeding, Protrud ing Piles.

The report made at the spring ses sion of the Presbytery,of Northumber land helil at Montgomery, shows that the number of persons received into the church during the past year was 459, as against 373 the year before. This gain of 118 members is a gain of twenty-five j>er cent. The annual ex penses during 1904 was $116,000. Last year they were about SIOO,OOO. The re port also showed that only about thirty per cent, of the scholars in the Sun day schools are members of the church es.

One of the most remarkable cases of "stay at home" and lack of curisity, is that of Mrs. Haund Turk, living at Elimsport, only fifteen miles away from Williamsport, who last week visited that city for the first time in fifty-nine years. She is sixty-four years old and remembers being brought to that town when five years old, but she j haa not been there since. [CONCERNING OUR MILK SUPPLY A communication has been received at this office signed " Dairyman," which approves the action taken by the authorities to promote good sanita tion by securing an analysis of river water, perfecting sewerage, etc., but which suggests the advisability of the board of health examining another source of contagion, which lias ap parently been overlooked. Reference is made to the milk supply of the town, which, as is well understood, if not scrupulously clean and pure, is apt to prove a potent cause of typhoid fever and other diseases. Inasmuch as the writer is a dairyman the views ad vanced, as they relate to milk, especi ally, ought to have much weight. Th communication reads in part: "As everyone knows the only diet given to a person suffering with fever is milk. Let us consider what might happen if the milk given the patient is not of the best and the purest qual ity Assuming that the cows are healthy, is it not most frequently the case that the cows are coufiued in | dark, filthy, unventilated stables? I Amid such surroundings is it not to be supposed that deadly bacteria, which lurk in such places,will be introduced into the milk? The bacteria increase with wonderful rapidity and by the time the milk reaches the fever pati ent it is laden with deadly poison aud the poor weak patient, whose only hope of life is in the sustenance lie gets from the milk, is required to partake of actual i>oison. Now,the honest con scientious dairyman will see to it that his stables aud their surroundings are clean and sanitary, but how about the milk he purchases from other people? Is he always careful to visit these farms to ascertain if the stables are clean aud sanitary and consequently whether the milk is all that it should be? "In what better way can disease be carried from house to house than by bottled milk? Does anyone suppose that the dairyman disinfects every hot tie each time it is returned? Is it not putin the case with the other bottles and washed by the dairyman in the usual way? The next day the bottles are all filled and distributed, as they happen to come, to the patrons on the route. The bottle that came from the fever-stricken home goes into some other home aud in a short time anoth er case of typhoid fever is reported. "We have considered the possible sources first, but there is another rea son why the health authorities should inquire into the dairy supply. Every mouth the dairy and food department sends out a book containing the names of persons who have violated the law by adulteration of milk and other food supplies. As we know Danville lias not been quite innocent in the past and who is sure as to the present sup ply? Last year the agent did uot test the milk sold in Danville and it is uot likely that lie will come this summer unless somebody requests the depart ment to make a test, Consumers are very willing to patronize a dairyman warm weather, yet nature never in tended milk to keep sweet longer than a certain time. Beware of milk or cream that keeps sweet in warm weather—it is 'doctored. - Why should not Danville follow the example of other towns and require a test of the milk once every mouth? The Babcock test costs but a small auiouut and the test can easily be made. Thus the con sumer would know whether the milk is honest in its weight and above or below the standard. All honest dairy men would hail such an examination with pleasure." DAIRYMAN. M A KING IM PRO VE M EN TS. Horace O. Blue is erecting a new porch at his residence ou Mill street. Yesterday morning he tore down the old portico, which had done service since the dwelling was built. The old structure was quite a pretentious piece of architecture but many of the tim bers had yielded to decay and Mr. Blue decided to tear it down and build along modern lines. The new porch will be over twenty feet in length, tak ing in practically the entire width of the house. It will add much to the pleasure of the family occupying the house and improve the value of the property. A portico, it would appear, Can uot be relied upon to withstand the rav ages of time like the dwelling proper aud while the latter is still in good re pair the portico or veranda becomes dilapidated in appearance, detracting much from the general surroundings. It is unfortunate that now and then property owners are negligent in this resj>ect and permit old porticos to re main long after they have ceased to bo oruamental. There are a good many streets in town that are disfigured in this way aud the owners would do well to imitate Mr. nine's example. WORKS WONDERS. A Wonderful Compound-Cures Piles, Ec zema, Skin Itching, Skin Eruptions, Outs and Braises. ~ Doan's Ointment is the best skin treatment,and the cheapest, because so little is required to cure. It cures piles after years of torture. It cures ob stinate cases of eczema. It cures all skiu itching. It cures skin eruptions, it heals cuts, bruises, scratches and abrasions without leaving a scar. It cures permanently, Danville testimony proves it. D. C. Williams,slater, of 204 Lower Mulberry street, says:"l used Doan's Ointment some years ago and found it a most excellent remedy for the pur poses for which it is intended. It is the only remedy I ever found which gave me permanent relief from itch ing piles from which 1 had suffered for a long time. Anyone who has ever had piles knows what suffering I endured before I used Doan's Ointment. The burning and itching was almost into lerable night and day, anil although I tried dozens of ointments, salves and lotions I got no relief. I heard so much about Doan's Ointment that I procured a box. The first application gave me almost instant relief and in a short time I was cured. That was eight years ago aud I have had no return of the exasperating affliction since. I re commend Doan's Kidney Pills high ,y For sale bv all dealers. Price 6C cents.

Commissioner Meeliau says: I do not agree at all w'tli Doneliow ers theory that spring 'planting of trout is not right. I have so stated iu tlic Williamsport Sun. I would not care how great the facilities might be when rearing trout, I would not favor planting them in the fall. 1 could give very many good reasons in favor of spring planting of small fish and against planting large fish in the fall. Here are two or three very good and conclusive ones: First. Young fish three or four months old when planted in the streams iu the spring soon find plenty of food coming to them and by the autumn iire lully capable of hunting food for themselves. Second. Fish held in the hatcheries through the summer must necessarily be fed with artificial foods and when planted in the fall of the year do not know how to hunt for food for them selves, and food at that time is very scarce. Consequently, these fish have a very hard time of it pulling through the winter and many are lost. Third. Fish kept in hatcheries un til fall learn to ' school" and when planted in the fall hold to the habit and when the angler comes along in the spring it is almost certain that nearly every fish will be caught. Fourth. Fall planted fish are the most helpless creatures that can bo im agined. Spring planted fish in a week or two_,learn to take care of them selves. Fifth. It is by results that we de termine whether a thing is good or not. The results from the trout streams in Pennsylvania show that spring planting is good. The allegation which is often made that floods will sweep awav little fish is not founded on fact, if the fish are planted where they should be, namely in spring runs tributary to the stream from which it is expected to catch them. No flood which has yet occur red has been able to turn as much as the tail of the trout or move it from where it wants to remain. That is af ter the trout has become used to its new water, which will be at the most three or four days, and when planted there early in the season before the • | suow water has entirely disappeared 1 the time is shortened. Twenty-four i hours will settle them securely. • I The United States Bureau ofFisher • i ies has apif P* vania with trout if fall planting were indulged in. The best evidence to prove this is to be found in New York state where they plant almost exclu -1 sivelv in the autumn; the fishing is 112 there falling behind. In Pennsylvania 112 and Michigan where spring planting i is the rule, trout fishing is improving e annually. Don't tie a cougn or a cold up iu your system by taking a remedy tbat bin.ls the bowels.

L. & \V. track shortly after dark Monday night ac cidoutallv walked into Blizzard's Run. 1 The womau sank in up to her breast , anil was so firmly imbedded in the . mud that she could not extricato her f self. The little girl sank in over her , head, but was helped out by her moth- B er, while she herself remained iin -0 prisoned. It was about half past eight o'clock j when Mrs. Wesley DeShay, who lives on I). L. &W. avenue, heard a voice calling outside and on responding found the little girl who told the wo man what a predicament her mother was in and asked for help to secure her release. Mrs. DeShay procured a lantern and soon located the woman, who had walk . Ed into the deepest part of the stream a between the main track and the sid y ing. The water here is several feet , deep but the mud is a greater factor. 1 William Aten and a couple of ladies appeared upon the scene and all lent a willing hand to pull the woman out of the mud and water. She was a heavy weight, however, and for a while it seemed that the united strength of the tour people would be unequal to tlie task. After a great deal of trouble, 1 however, she was gotten out. s The woman was taken into a house - nearby and furnished with dry clotli -1 ing, while the little girl was kindly j cared for by Mrs. DeShay.

Vought of Klysburg IMPORTANT ACTIUN DBFERRM) Amos Vastiue,»a first ward mem her, created a stir in council Friday night, when he informed that body that the polluted condition of the river bank above tlie intake of the water works had been reported to the State board of health. Who it was that had taken the matter up when the local author ities hesitated to act was not stated. Just what action council expects from Health Commissioner Dixon is not clear. At all events it had not the ef fect of impelling the members to take any action in the matter,although the violation of the ordinance anil the consequent defilement of the river bank were threshed over in about the same way as at the previous meeting. The attitude of the members was about the same with the exception of the gentle man from the third ward, who at the previous meeting said lie did not be lieve the printed description, but who at the last meeting said he had in vestigated and had found the situation bad enough. The matter was treated a little more seriously than at the pre vious meeting, but 110 action was tak en either to effectually prevent the dumping of garbage 011 the river bank or to remove the impurities that are already thrown on the spot. It is worthy of note also that from other parts of town, especially, the third ward, there is much complaint on the score of bad sanitation. Al though the first of May is nearly here it is no uncommon sight to see alleys nearly blocked with manure piles and ashes. Still worse, the gutters ou many of the streets are filled with waste water of all sorts which flowing from one spot lies in front of the door ways of other persons who strive to keep their premises clean and present able. Probably those responsible for the objectionable state of affairs de scribed will some day awake to their duty in the premises.
