COURT FACES
UNIQUE DILEMMA
Complications in the Fisher case
during the past few days put the
Northumberland countv court in one
of the strangest dilemmas in which any
judge has ever been placed
Fisher is accused of murder and his
case was to have come up yesterday.
Under the law it could not again be
postponed except by request of the de
fendant as it had already been twice
put off, and as Fisher still has no
counsel he can hardly be put on trial
for his life. Nevertheless he insisted
on being tried. "Have it over" he
said. "I don't care whether you hang
me or not." If his case would go by
default he could no longer be held in
prison.
The honorable court looked over the
attorneys present, attempting to .dis
cover some prospective lawyer for the
defense. He again appealed to Welsh
and Welsh, whom he had originally
appointed. They firmly declined. "We
will goto prison for contempt, your
honor," they said, "rather then take
up the case again." The last time
they called ou their client a desperate
fist fight had eusued aud they have no
desire to consult iiiui again. Pres ure
was brought to bear on Fisher, aud
after several days hard work he was
persuaded to ask for a continuance,
which was granted with great alacrity j
by the court on Tuesday evening.

Six flore Weeks of Cold Weather.
He walked right out, and turned
around, and walked right in again—
this reversal of the prevalent expres

an end and we are to have cold and

such says that "the fellows who stand
on street corners chewing and spitting
and telling obscene stories, cursing
and declaring merchants aud business
folks in general skins and thieves are
a nuisance and au abominatiou Any
town pestered with any such worthies
would be justified in exercising cow
hide authority. No one is compelled
to Jive in any town aurl the one not
having a good word for its business
enterprises should be helped out."

EASTER.
Easter can never be earlier than
March 21,n0t later than April 25, since
it is the first Sunday after the full
moon that happens on or nearest to
March 21, and if this fall ou a Sun
day, then Easter is to be the Sunday
following. In 1818 Easter was March
2i. Since 1875 there have been seven
Rasters iu March, iucluding the East
er of this year, which falls March 31.
LOCAL OPTION.
There is a very decided sentiment
throughout this Commonwealth in
favor of the enactment of a reasonable
local option Jaw. To advocate local
option is not necessarily to favor local
prohibition. It is simply to take the
grouud that the people of each coun
ty, or samller district, have a right to
determine whether or uot they want
the licensed liquor business to exist in
their community
DISEASES OF
MID-WINTER
The local registrar's report to the
bureau of vital statistics for January
shows the usual amount of illness in
cidental to midwinter, although the
general health is better than during
the mouth of December.
Eleven cases of typhoid fever were
reported during January as against
seven cases in December. In propor
tion to the population there is nothing
abnormal in eleven cases of typhoid
fever. Besides, the majority of the
cases were reported during the earl}'
part of the month and are now con
valescent. There is scarcely any doubt
but that Danville's practical immun
ity from typhoid fever, which is pre
vailing in so many of our neighboring
towns, is due in great measure to the
precaution of boiling water used for
drinking and culinary purpose s as well
as to the efficacy of our filter plant,
which cleanses and purifies the river,
water.
As relates to diphtheria, the most
dieaded disease of childhood, the sit
uation is much improved, there being
but one case in January as against five
cases of that disease.one of which was
fatal, in the month of December.
This is the season when pneumonia
begins to gather in its victims. Dur
ing January there were three cases, of
this dreaded disease, one being fatal,
as against one case in December, which
was fatal.
Scarlet fever made its appearance
during January, three cases being re
ported. There were no deaths from
this disease.
The general improvement as relates
to the public health is noticeable in
the falling off of grippe. A couple of
weeks ago there was scarcely a family
but had one or more victims of this
disease. Some of the cases were attend
ed with a good deal of suffering, while
there were few who were not too bad
ly indisposed to pursue their daily
vocations. The falling off of grippe is
attributed by the doctors to the more
seasonable weather which has prevail
ed during the couple of weeks past.
During January there were twenty -
flve death in the district, six of these
occurring at the hospital for the in
sane.
The births for December which were
not previously printed, were twenty
three as against twenty-one deaths for
that month.

Death After Long Illness.
Samuel Boyer, of Plymouth,a form
er resident of Danville, died at his
home in the former place Saturday
morning.
For many years the deceased was
employed as a clerk in the company
store at tins place and thus became
very widely known. His wife before
marriage was Miss Rishel.of this city,
a sister of Miss Mary A. Rishel. Pine
street. When he lived in Danville the
deceased owned and occupied a resi
dence on Bloom road just beyond the
borough line.
In 1887 Mr. Boyer moved to Ply
mouth, Luzerne county, and sometime
later he became associated with W. B.
Ohamberlin in a mercantile business.
For some years lie was manager of the
store but later became a member of the
firm. He was accounted a first class
business man.
The deceased was in ill health for
two years. During this time lie decid
ed to retire from business and remove
to his old home, Danville. With this
object in view lie purchased the A. H.
Woolley residence on West Market
wtreet. Declining health, however, de
terred him from changing his resi
dence. although he still retained pos
session of the West Market street
dwelling.
The deceased was 58 years of age
and is survived by his wife, a son and
a daughter: Gathercole and Miss Lois
Boyer.

Oratorio In M. E. Church.
It has been decided by the Joseph
Ratti hospital committee, which has
the matter in hand, that t!;o oritorio,
"The Holy City," the recent rendi
tion of which in the Mahoning I'xes
byterian church is still fresh iu the
minds of Danville people, will be pre
sented in the First Methodist Episcop
al church at Bloomsburg as a benefit
production for the Ratti hospital.
The Methodist church has been sel
ected by the committee as it is the
largest auditorium in Bloomsburg,
seating, with the galleries included,
about 1200 people.
• A date for the production has not as
yet been selected as protracted services
are at present in progress in the
church, and no defiuite time has been
set tor their conclusion. The exact
time will be set when the series of
services are closed.
The First M. E. church is particular
ly fitted for a production of the nature
of"The Holy City. " The construction
of the church is such that ttie acoustic
qualities are the best. Also the choir
gallery is in front of the audience,and
the organ is a remarkably fiue instru
ment. The church authorities are fav
orable to having the oratorio In their
edifice.
Foley's Honey and Tar cures the
most obstinate coughs and expels the

To Have "Cleaning Day."
Mayor Kirkendall, of Wilkes-Barre,
has decided to inaugurate an innova
tion by designating, "Cleaning Day,"
when all back yards, cellars and other
places used for storing refuse will be
cleaned out. The city will furnish
teams to cart the stuff away.
"Cleaning Day" would be an excel
lent thing in Danville the coming

THE DANVILLE
jSTOTE WORKS
At the annual meeting of the Dau
ville Stove and Manufacturing com
pany, held last week, the following
officers were re-elected : President, W.
B. Ohamberlin; secretary, Alexander
Foster; treasurer, W. L. McClure ;W.
A. Sechler was re-elected general man- I
a»er of the worKs.
The plant of the Danville Stove &
Manufacturing company, beside being
me of the most prosperous industries
in this section with a bright future
ihead of it.has a record behind it that
.veil entitles it to the distinctionjof be
ug a standby in Danville. For more
han twenty years it lias been forging
ilong in the even tenor nf its way. a
•source of steady and remunerative em
jlovment to it hands every working
lay of the year when they chose to ap
ply themselves to their tasks. There
night be protracted shut-downs else
where, but the stove works was al
ways running or in a condition to run.
For twenty years or more the busi
ness has been gaining ground and it is
still growing. Last week the company
shipped a caT load of Beaver stoves to
San Francisco, which is an entirely
aew field. A circumstance that reflects
well on Beaver stoves is the fact that
the order came wholly unsolicited,
from a party who had heard of the
Danville stoves and came here to
aegotiate. Danville stoves are export
ed to many foreign countries and are
found in South Africa. China a* well
as in Mexico aud Cuba.
To keep pace with the demand of
the times the Danville Stove & Manu
facturing company is constantly add
ing to its product. The new Queen
Beaver, the patterns of which were
begun last summer, will be ready for
the spring trade. This range,which is
in two sizes and twelve different
styles, is made with lift-off nickel and
is plain in finish, just the kind of stove
to please the fancy of the present flay,
which is constantly demanding some
thing new.
Work is well under way on the pat
terns of two other stoves that will be
brought out this season. One of these
is a new size of Beaver A, plain cab
inet range and the other a new square
parlor heater, which will be made in
two size?.
THE SOOTHING SPRAY of Ely's
Liquid Cream Balm, used in an at

lodged and the patient breathes freely,
perhaps for the first time in weeks.

healing, purifying elements of the
solid form, and it never fails to cure.

SPARROW POT PIE.
Commenting on the statement that
he Italian residents of Wilhes-Barre
are converting the English sparrows of

Mirror informs us that "Sparrow pot
pie lias been eaten and enjoyed by

for some years past and considered a
delicacy by all who have tried the ex
p9riment. This is especially true of
the country, where the birds feed up
on the seeds of weeds and grain in the
fields or about barns. Their bones are
si small and delicate that they can be
placed whole in the pie and the meat
on the breast has all the flavor of the
quail.

NEW CHAPEL
IN EAST El
The East End mission,which, under
the zealous leadership of Hon. M.
Hincklev, has grown and prospered
during several years past, is about to
enter upon a new era, marked by still
greater growth and enlarged influence.
Among the new order of things that
will bring about another epoch in the
missiou's history is a new modern
achurch structure designed witli sper
il reference to the growing needs of
the mission, -.and the foundation 01
vhich will be laid not later than next
fcoriug.
Ever since the East End mission has
b >eu in existence the meetings have
tneu hold in the third floor of the Am
merman building. East Market street.
The quarters there are somewhat
cramped but the two narrow flights of
stairs that have to be climbed by those
attending constitute the worst objec
tion.
For some time past those interest
ed in the work of the East End mis
sion have been casting about for a new
site of ground convenienly located,up
on which to build a chapel. Such a
site is now procured. It was purchas
ed last week of W. A. Shepperson and
adjoins the Ammermau building on
the west. It was formerly occupied by
Mr. Shepperson's coal yard and has a
frontage of forty-seven feet on East
Market street and is one hundred and
fifty feet deep. The deed has been de
livered.
Hon. H. M. Hinckley stated yester
day that a capacious chapel would be
erected on the site, that would have
an auditorium of large size ou the first
floor. The exact dimensions have not
been decided upon ; nor of what ma
terial it will be constructed. Work
may begin in a very short time. By
the first of April at the furthest ground
will be Drokeu.

LIFE HANGS ON
OWN TESTinONY
The fate of Mike Zubah, the Mt.
Carmel murderer, now rests with the
jnrv.
The defense yesterday afternoon i
finished presenting its evidence, which
consisted of good character from about
twenty friends of Zubah from his
home town,and of the defendant's own
story of the crime. This was interest
ing, as it throws light on several con
fusing incidents of the case. •
The story is substantially as fol
lows : Ella Barder, daughter of the
murdered man, had made love to Zu
bah on several occasions, and Zubah
finally plucked up courage togo to
her home and ask for her hand. She
told him that she didn't want to get
married and that she intended to move
to Jersey City. He left the house in
anger aud gave vent to his rage by
throwing stones at the front door.
Barder came out and followed him to
a railroad cut nearby. Here the two
men clinched. Zubah testified that he
thought Barder's friends were follow
ing him, although the evidence shows
that they were in a saloon at the time.
Fearing injury, if not death, at their
hands, Zubah drew a revolver and fired
at Barder, who was still holding him.
The victim dropped and died soon af
ter.
Nothing will relieve Indigestion that
is not a thorough digestant. Kodol
digests what you eat and allows the

stroug again. KODOL is a solution of
digestive acids and as nearly as possi
ble approximates the digestive jucies
that are found in the stomach. KODOL
takes the work of digestion off the
digestive organs, and while perform
ing this work itself does greatly assist
the stomach to a thorough rest In ad
dition the ingredients of KODOL are
such as to make it a corrective of the
highest efficiency and by its action the
stomach is restored to its normal act

The Knock-oat Blow.
The blow which knocked out Corbett
was a revelation to the prize fighters.
From the earliest days of the ring the
knock-out blow was aimed for the jaw,
the temple or the jugular vein. Stomach
punches were thrown into worry and
weary the fighter, but If a scientific man
had told ene of the old fighters that the
most vulnerable spot was the region of
the stomach, he'd have laughed at him
for an ignoramus. Dr. Pierce is bringing
hone to the public a parallel fact; that
thqMomacV is the most vulnerable organ

SACRIFICE TO

Iu order to save the life of his three
year old daughter, Charles Kremer, of
Lewisburg, had thirty square inches
of his skin grafted on her at the Wil

December his daughter Geraldine,was
badly burned about the body and arms,
and has been in the hospital since
December 22. Over three weeks ago as
much skin was taken from Mrs. Krem
er for a like purpose. The physician
at the hospital thought that in order
to save the little girl's life more skin
would be needed,so Mr. Kremer with
out any liestitaion, offered himself to
save his daughter from death. Gerald
ine is now letting along nicely and it
is thought that she will recover.
