E PRE FABS FOB CAKE F company, Twelfth regiment, N. G. P., of this city, is speedily com pleting all the arrangements for the annual encampment of the State's soldier- which opens at Gettysburg at ;» o'clock on Saturday morning, July 21. The armory is beginning to assume the bu-y aspect that always precedes the encampment. Stores are being pre paid 1 lor the jourm \ and drills are In illg held twice a week. The colli pauy will leave Danville Friday after noon, Julv 20, and will be in camp that evening and have a night's rest before the real activities of camp life begin. The advance guard leaves on Thursday, the 19tli. F Company is in better condition in every way this year than for a num ber of seasons past. The company numbers f>3 men which is 2 short of the maximum strength and 8 above the minimum. Danville's company at the inspection at last year's encamp ment, made a record of 2nd. in the 12th. regiment. This year the officers consider they have a good chance of being first, and every effort will be made, both by the enlisted men and their superiors, to land this coveted prize. In the spring inspection this year compauv F stood sth. in the Twelfth regiment. The standing would have been higher but for the low mark in guard duty, which was the lowest in the regiment, owing to the selection of green men for examination. To off set this, however, the local company was awarded the highest mark in the regiment for books and papers—a per fect per centage of 100. The rifle range has been open for several week- under the supervision of (Quarter Master Sergeant George R. Gru-s, range master, and a quarter of the company has qualified. The re mainder of the men will qualify he fore going to camp. At the close ol camp Company F will send a squad ol it- lust shots to the regimental matches at Sunliury. It is upon the records made at these regimental shoots that the team to represent Pennsylvania at the international matches at Sea Girt will be based. The phenomenal records made by several members of company F warrant the belief that Danville will he represented on the State team. The usual camp followers w ill be absent this year, as strict orders have been issued from regimental head quarters that no extra men shall be taken to camp. The guardsmen keenly appreciate the opportunity that is afforded them in spending a week on the historic fields of Gettysburg. A number of i>eople from Danville always visit the camp during the week the soldiers are hav ing their outing. liarn Struck by Lightning. The fine big barn on the farm of Emanuel Sidler, on the Jersey town road. Valley township, was struck by lightning Tuesday afternoon about 1:15 o'clock and the fire that followed totally destroyed the structure and several nearby buildings. The farm i- occupied by Norman Kitchen, and he with his sou and an other man were in the barn unloading wheat at the time it was struck. Mr. Kitclii n says the shock was terrific, and for a moment ho was almost stun ned. An instant after the lightning -truck the barn was in a mass of flames, the lire breaking out in several places at the satin time. It was only by prompt action that the live stock and farming machinery were saved. The barn was built about <SO years ago, but was in excellent condition ; it was constructed almost entirely of oak. It was a hank barn, 80x38, with a straw shed 55x30; nearby stood a line new corn shed w liicli was also destroy ed. lii the barn wore about 30 tons of bay. 1"> loads of wheat.aud in tlio coru -bed CO bushels of shelled corn. Mr. Kitcben had about one-third of his wheat in and about one-half of his hay made. Mr. Sidler places tin- value of the destroyed buildings at IWOO.on which there si:j(K) insurance. On the hay and yraiu there was about S4BO insur ance. "FELT."

MILTON'S PAVING UK DANVILLE'S Milton i- experiencing the same difficulties as Danville 111 connection with paving with State ;ii<l. It lias been the intention of the Milton au thorities to pave Broadway,the town's main thoroughfare, with brick. l)r. Sidney Davis, of Milton, was in consultation with Commissioner <»i Highways Hunter at llarri.-hurg <>n Friday, and as the conditions at Mil ton are almost identical with those in Danville, a portion of his report to tlio citizens of Milton a- set forth in the Standard will no douht he of in terest here: "At lirst Mr. Hunter refused to do anything hut mecadami/.e IS road way * * * hut after some ttlk lie stated the following proposition * * *: Mr. Hunter will pave 15 road way from Front street to the borough limits twenty feet wide according to the pro visions of the State law, which re quires tlio municipality to hear one fourth of the cost, the balance of the street, which is about thirteen or four teen feet, to be paved hv the town or the property owners on the street, the people or borough to - npply and set the curbing. (Mill street i.» al-o 34 feet wide; The cost of the paving would he from $1.60 to $1.75 per square yard, aceoiding to certain conditions of tlie street, as grading, etc. This paving is to be placed on gravel or crushed stone foundation. The cost of curbing is fifty or sixty cents per run ning foot." Finally Dr. Davis concludes his re port with a statement with which, as is natural, Danville people wili strenu ously disagree, yet which nevertheless clearly points to one of the great bene fits of street ilaving, and Dr. Davis words of advice to Milton people should be a warning to Danville not to allow anything to stand in the way of the successful culmination of the Mill street jraving proposition : "There is one thing to be borne in mind, that the Broadway road i- tin principal artery of this town a- it tap more valleys and a larger seope ol country than any of the other roads leading to the town and once this road is macadamized through to W,. hiit - touville, as will eventually happen, then will a large section of trade lie drawn to this town that goes to Dan ville, for it goes without saying that all roads of this country point to Mil ton." Improvements at Trinity. A number of improvements are be ing made about the Trinity M. K. property on Centre street,which when complete! will greatly enhance the beauty and add to the value of the church and parsonage. The side walk in front id' both the church and parsonage has been torn up and regraded, and a fine new cement walk will be laid. The grade in front of the church was too low, and in the course of the alterations this defect will be remedied. The steps leading to the main entrance of the church are being repaired, and a concrete base will replace the old wooden bottom step. At the parsonage, beside the new side walk, the exterior is receiving a coat of paint and connections are being made with the new sewer extension. A bath room will be installed at once and it is the intention in the near fu ture to provide more room in the. par sonage by the erection of a two story addition in the rear. The work in progress is under the personal supervision of Rev. I. Dow Ott, pastor of Trinity church. Home Hade flail Boxes.

This scheme is following out the purposes of the act of May 11,11105, whereby the game commission was given authority in co-operation with t he State forestry commission to est ablish Mich preserves with the idea of propagating the wild fauna of the State. The matter was brought up at the meeting of the game commission Sat urday afternoon and it was stated that the forestry commission has given the necessary permission and three pre serves, each from two to two and a half miles square, will bo established at once. One will be in Franklin ooru ty near Mont Alto and one each in Clinton and Clearfield counties, where the State owns many acres of forest land. It is proposed to surround those preserves with a single wire with notices of the reservation placed every 100 feet or so, the idea being that the wire will serve as a warning to hunt res that they are State reserves, the common sense and public spirit of the hunter being trusted to prevent him from entering or shoot ing game there in Speaking of the plan, Dr. Kalbfus, State game protector, said to a report er on Saturday: "This is the com mencement of a great chain of per serves where game of all kinds may go, rest and breed. They will not be stocked, as we trust that the animals and birds will go there from other places. We will rely upon the people to respect these preserves, onr only lire-cautious being a wire and notices tacked on trees. If this is done the whole Slate wiil benefit."

DIXON ABATES RIVER POLLUTION It i- the purpose of Dr. Samuel G. Dixon, State health commissioner, to devote all the power of the State de partment of health to the purification of the sources of the water supplies of the cities of the State. The department plans involve a sweeping campaign against the private pollution ol the Schuylkill, the Al legheny, the Mouongahela, the Sus quehanna and other rivers and their tributaries, from which the larger communities of the State must draw their water supplies. NUISANCE INSPECTORS BUSY. In reference to this wortc Commis sioner Dixon Saturday said: "While our sanitary engineers are assisting tin municipalities throughout tlio State to devise sanitary methods of sewage disposal so that they will vot poisou the wafer that they drink or poison it for other cities and towns bo low them,our nuisance inspectors have been busy ferreting out and abating the pri\ tte pollutions along the banks of the rivers and tributaries in the rural districts outside the towns. "I have always believed that these private pollutions, such as water clos ets that overhang the streams or drain directly int > them, are much more harmful in proportion to the amount of sewage than the discharge of muni cipal sewer systems. Certain it is that they must all he abated, and our nuis ance inspectors have been following up clear to their sources the streams j that make their way into the Schuyl- j kill and other rives and which for yeai< have b.-on carrying to these wa ter supplies the waste from hundreds of v iter do ets. private drains and filthy pig pons. "As these pollutions have been dis covered and report"d to the State de pariiKiit ol health, notices of abate no i.t have a i>siiod. I am happy to -ay that the civ .have boon very rare i in which v. • have 'neon obliged to re sort todi ;-i ■ measures. Most of the prop i t - n a iiei -have immediately up on ii tie- b i uiveu them, declared that ti'.ey would cease to pollute the -t re am- in ! a I opt -nine sanitary me ! tliod oi disposing of the waste matter] so that it should not menace the health , of their neighbors down stream." ! In the -ame manner that Health Com niis-ioner Dixon's nuisance inspectors have been abating private pollutions i along the Schuylkill and it- tributar ies, other State inspectors have been bu-v along the Allegheny river. A few days ago Dr. Dixon received a let ter from J. W. (!lark, director of the department of public works of Pitts burg, expressing that city's apprecia tion oft lie work that the State depart ment of health is doing ill wiping out sources of pollution along the Alle gheny i ivor above Pittsburg's pump ing station. The saiuo work is going on through out the State, and as soon as Health Commissioner Dixon has appointed his full corps of township health ollicers, who will Ik able to keep close watch on private streaift pollution in their respective districts, this particular phase ot the work of cleaning up the State will proceed rapidly, and, with the co-operation of the municipalities, long ,-te]is will be taken toward re claiining'the waters of Pennsylvania to their virgin purity.

The champion fish story of the sea son was printed in the Tyrone Herald of a recent date. It tells how two well known residents of that town, "J. T. Rush and John Stephens, went fishing for catfish a few evenings ago near tlio Juniata bridge. They caught several fish and finally Rush got a bite; he tried to pull out but found that his hook was fastened. After a hard pull, the line came up and on the hook was atw gallon jug. Being curious to know what held the hook in the jug, Rush broke the jug and found a twelve inch catfish. The fish had probably , gone into the jug when small and had ! grown too large to got out of the open ing." Did the philanthropists among the finny tribe keep that imprisoned j fish supplied with food, or was it. a | very hungry fish when Mr. Hush's hook floated into its prison? Twenty Year Battle.

MAKING STATE CAMP PLANS Col. C. At. Cleiin'iit and officers of (In- Twelfth regiment are busily en gaged in preparations for the division encampment of the guard, which will In' held on the historic field or Gcttys 1 >lli - i» from July 21 to 28. Un account of the new arrangement of the propos ed camp it is expected that this en campment will bo the. most successful, from a practical military point of view, ever held in the State. Major General Gobin has approved the site, which has been plotted by Lieutenant Colonel W. F. Richardson, division quartermaster. Inasmuch a> it will be the first State encampment in which General Gobin will be the commanding officer, lie is doing his utmost to make Camp Robert M. Hen derson,as it will he called,a groat suc cess. Lieutenant Colonel Richardson has gone to Gettysburg to arrange the final details of tlie encampment. The troops will ho located in the vicinity of the division encampment of two years ago,but the locations of the var ious organizations will be changed somewhat so as to expedite the mau ouvors according to the experience gained at the last division encamp ment. The* calvary troops, which wore scattered two years ago with the dif ferent brigades, will camp together, and near by will be two batteries. Those will be located along the Cliaiu borsburg piko near the drill grounds. The general division headquarters will be oil the Emmittsburg pike, about, half-way between the headquarters of the first and second brigades, which will bo along the same pike. The headquarters of the third brigade will be directly opposite, on Confederate avenue. Between headquarters is the large parade grounds. The lirst and third regiments of the first brigade will be on either side of the brigade headquarters, while the Second and Sixth regiments will be some distance in front of the first. The regiments of the second brigade will be almost di rectly in front of the brigade head quarters. The third brigade headquart ers will be between the fourth and twelfth regimental camps, facing the j parade grounds, while the eighth,ninth [ and thirteenth regiments will be on ! the other side of Confederate avenue, behind the twelfth regiment camp. This arrangement is regarded as the best ever planned for Gettysburg, as all brigades will be about equally dis tant from the parade grounds, while the drill ground is within easy march- j ing distance. Major General Gobin has planned extensive maneuvers in the tactics em ployed in the regular army.so that the State troops will really be undergoing for the time being, the same drills as the regulars. The encampment, and especially the drilling, will be wit nessed by the usual number of officers from tho United States army, who have been detailed for the duty by Secretary of War Taft. These officers will make a report to the war depart ment regarding tho standard of effici ency of tho State troops. Most of the companies are nearly up to their full complement, while some have'their muster roll full. Governor Pennypaeker will, of course, review tho troops,but the date set for "Governor's Day" has not been announced. As it will be the last under his administration, he is co-operating heartily with the officers, and is said to be arranging his affairs so that he can spend several days at the encampment.

Would Seriously Affect Sunbury. j The cutting out of Sunbury as a freight terminus of tho Philadelphia and Erie and Northern Central branch es of the Pennsylvania railroad system in this State would result in the re moval of at least two hundred railroad men and their families to Harrisburg, Willianisport and Renovo. Crowded conditions about the Penn sylvania railroad yards in the move ment of freight some time ago led flu officials of the Pennsylvania railroad to plan extensive improvements to tho yard facilities there. After the plans had boon made agents wore active about Sunbury to secure the necessary land upon which to ex tend the freight yards. Property own ers refused to sell the laud except at extravagant prices and tho railroad officials determined that the improve ments to the Sunbury yards should bo abandoned unless they could get laud ! at reasonable figures. The matter has alarmed tho business men of Sunbury and a special meeting of the Business Men's association has been called. Railroad men whose runs have boon from Harrisburg to Sunbury anil from Sunbury to Willianisport and ROIIDVO I have been interviewed upon the sub I jeot of moving to Harrisburg, Wil I iainsport and Renovo.

I replied thereto ! through the superintendents of the I different departments, that I was eom ■ polled to deny their requests, as the : market conditions and prices now ruling for our iron products do not justify any advances. The situation is really worse today than it was in Jan uary last, when similar requests for advances were made.as prices are low er now than then, and the out look is anything but a promising one. It is our intention to close down all our mills next week for the usual summer repairs, which may take from one to three weeks, after which we will be prepared to resume. IT the men do not choose to resume work on the wage basis now in force, the mills will re main shut down until conditions change." The above statement fully covers the situation as it exists today ain 1 will no doubt be of interest to Danville readers.

Y., 1 e week to the effect that John Burroughs, the author-na turalist, has returi I from a trip to Sullivan comity. N. Y., where he in vestigated repor; that wild pigeons had been recently in that locality,with the impression that he had every rea son to believe tlmt i ,e men who saw the birds were tilling the truth, as they were famili::r with the passenger pigeon in the olden days when there were flocks of millions in this coun try. Secretary Kalhfus.of the State game Commission, wis asked it he had auy information cone ruing wild pigeons in this State, mi l said he bad received reports of some I eitig seen, but had not yet investigated. Several months ago Secretary Kalbftis received a let ter from H. 11 Rishel, fit' Westover, Clearfield county, iu which he stated that thorp had been nesting for two seasons past a large flock of wild pige ons within a mile of where lie lives, and he was confident there were at least three hundred in the flock. Dr. Kalbfus asked for further infor mation concerning these birds, think ing perhaps that they might be doves, and Tdr llisl. 1 told him that they nested together, which to the game com mi -i >ner is an indication that they were really wild pigeons,as doves do not nest together, and it was a . peculiar it \ of 11«- wild or passenger pigeons of thirty years ago to nest in large flocks. There can scarely be any mistake about these being wild pige on-;,and it leads n the belief that they are coming back to this State. Thirty years auo tlier<» was a large wild pige. a roost in the vicinity of Sheffield, Warien county, and the stories told of their numbers seem al most incredible. When the birds set out to feed in the morning and return ed to the ro .st at night they were in such number- as to obscure the sun, and pns-in r over a town, (lying low, they resembled a huge cloud. Millions of them were killed and sent to the larger citii . while thousands were trapped anil used at shooting matches. The Cornplaute.r Indians in the north ern ft irt ui' I his State and Southern New York netted myriads of the birds and ni ! , good living from their sale, if the > !d pigeon returns to this Stat< a strin ent law will he passed to prevee.i :t .erniinatiou.

There are some slang expressions which have found their way into the diction ary and into current speech because they really represent something that could not be so pointedly expressed in any other way. Hut the school author ity - of Philadelphia are clearly right. There may be a plaee for slang, but it i -urely not in the public schools. Our children should bo taught to use good language and to avoid vulgar and ill-bred expressions. 1 m Falling Thus cried the hair.
