Danville, Pa., Feb. 21, 1907.
Work of the
Legislature
There are times when it becomes
necessary to urge legislative bodies to
get a move on ; times when lethargy
instead of industry prevails in the
halls of legislation, aud times when
one or both houses are, or appear to
be, obstructive. And there are other
times when insistence upon haste in
legislation is a mistake. How best to
discriminate between the times for
haste and the times for deliberation
cannot be governed by any rule yet
discovered.
The legislature of Pennsylvania has
been in session seven weeks, aud be
cause only one measure has been pass
ed finally there is much complaint of
glowness of the lawmakers, coupled
with demands that somebody take
charge of them and see that something
be done directly. Nevertheless it is
generally understood that the first
three weeks of the session,at the close
of a gubernatorial term, shall be prac
tically devoid of legislation, and
therefore nothing is done until the
new governor has been inaugurated.
That takes two weeks away from the
formidable seven. It is quite true,
however, that the reform measures
promised to the people are moving
along slowly.
If there is no intention to bunco the
people toward the close of the session
with assertion that there is insuffici
ent time for the enactment of all the
reform bills, nothing will be lost by
reason of deliberation. There is no in
terest suffering because of slowness on
"the hill." There is no necessity for
extraordinary haste or for the railroad
ing of legislation. There must be time
for debate on every important bill on
the calendars. Ttie gag rule must not
be invoked, if it takes all summer to
dispose of myriads of bills that have
been or will be introduced.
SIDEWALK CUSPIDORS.
WilliamsDort people are taking an
unusual step to check spitting on the
streets. The people up there claim that
the policemeu do not pay attention to
the anti-spitting law and now it is
proposed to place cuspidors along the
sidewalks and to put up signs request
ing people to use them in the interest
of public health.
Two ten-cent magazines are free
with every copy of"THE PHILA
DELPHIA SUNDAY PERSS." la one
there are short stories, good drawings,
clever descriptive articles, verse, good
fun and a strong serial. The woman's
magazine section in colors is far sup
erior to anything else in its line. It
has timely hints and advice as to fash-,
ions,articles on practical physical cul
ture, art needle-work patterns, and a
new series of millinery patterns by
one of the foremost authorities.
Funeral of Henry Byerly.

Tank Shops Go To Milton.
Word was received at the local
branch of the American Car and Foun
dry company Friday afternoon from

decided to bnild the big tank shops of
the company at this place, and the
local management was instructed to

GEORGE GARDNER'S
NARROW ESCAPE
George Gardner, our well known
townsman, met with a terrible fall
Monday, which came near putting
him out of business for awhile, if not
permanently winding up his career.
Mr. Gardner was engaged in cut
ting down the large horse chestunt
tree in front of Mrs. Stickle's resi
dence on Center street. To remove the
tree without having it come in con
tact with any of the buildings that
stood close by or the electric light,
telephone and other wires which ran
through nnder the branches taxed Mr.
Gardner's ingenuity, but he accom
plished what he set out to do.although
as above stated he met with a serious
accident.
The limb hanging over the wires he
secured by a chain, which he attach
ed to one of the upper limbs, after
which he sawed the limb loose from
the trunk. The limb refusing to swing
clear, Mr. Gardner was obliged to saw
it iu two, a task which was accom
panied with much danger. One part
of the limb swing clear,but to proper
ly handle the remaining portion it was
necessary to bring blocks and tackle
into play.
While using the latter Mr. Gardner
occupied a position on the top of a
twenty foot ladder. While tugging at
the ropo the weigtit of his body was
distributed in such a manner as to
cause the ladder to sing around aud to
fall to the ground, carrying the man
with it.
On starting on his twenty foot fall
Mr. Gardner let go the ladder and fell
at the inside of ttie pavement striking
the side of his head on the palings of
the fence enclosing the lawn of the
Cruikshank residence. He lay motion
less for awhile, apparently insensible,
although Mr. Gardner avers that he
was dimly conscious of what was go
ing on around him and was quTte un
able to speak.
His terrible fall was witnessed by
several people living near who went
to his rescue. He was taken into one
of the dwellings nearby, where it was
found that no hones were broken, al
though his face ami side of his head
were cut where he struck tlie fence.
Mr. Gardner is a man of iron will
and constitution A little thing like a
fall of twenty feet to him is only an
incident and after having his injuries
dressed he surprised the spectators by
cooly stepping out of the house and
resuming his work as though nothing
had happened.
INJURED HORSES
IN TIE STOCKS
A horse belonging to James Good,
Toby run hollow, got loose in the
stable Sunday night and celebrated his
liberty by kicking the other horses,
still chained in their stalls, so badly
that for awhile it seemed doubtful
whether they would recover so a.s to
be of any service to their owner.
The animal that broke loose had re
cently been shod, his shoes being pro
vided with sharp calks aud toe pieces :
to enable him to get along over the j
ice. The horse finding that he had the |
other animals at a disadvantage did
not show eitlier of them any mercy.
In all,three horses were kicked aud in
jured, the sharpened shoes enabling
the kicking horse to do fearful execu
tion.
A gray mare, a faithful farm anim
al, was the most seriously injured. On
the rump, about midway between the
spine ami the knee of the hind leg a
deep incision seven inches long was
inflicted, which cut nearly into the
bone and tore the skin and the muscle
loose, the whole forming an ugly flap
of tissue, which hung down attached
only by one end. Another horse was
lacerated iu nearly the same way,
while a third kicked on the leg. es
caped with a less serious injury.
Veterinarian Kline was called to
Mr. Good's farm Monday forenoon.
After examining the horses he realiz
ed that with the injuries in such close
proximity to the hind legs it would be
hazardous work to attempt to stitch
the deep gashes aided by no better
facilities than existed on the farm.
At this juncture the patent stocks
for shoeing horses maintained at Lo
bach's blacksmith shop ou Northum
berland street suggested themselves
and it was decided that the only prac
ticable course left open was to bring
the horses into town and perform the
surgical operation with the aid of the
stocks.
Accordingly about 1:30 o'clock the
three crippled animals, heavily blank
eted were led into town and taken to
Mr. Lobaoh'B establishment. Each
horse in turn was placed in the stocks,
swung off his feet and the hind leg to
be operated on made perfectly secute —
in all respects as if the animal was to
be shod.
Instead of the blacksmith, however,
the veterinary surgeon was in charge,
while to the horse the process was al
together a different one from being
shod. Painful as the operation was the
animals were unable to resist and
while the long strips of lacerated
flesh were drawn back into place aud
very many stitches were inserted they
were obliged to endure it all aud re
main perfectly quiet.
A crowd had assembled to witness
the unique surgical operation, which
was in every way a success. There is
no doubt but that the horses will re
cover without any ill effects, although
for awhile Monday they presented a
rather donbtftul and sorry appear
ance.

THE HOSPITAL I
APPROPRIATION
There is a great deal of interest felt j
by the people of this locality in the
act appropriating |389,!300 to the hos
pital for the insane, which passed on
its first reading last Thursday. The
air is full of conjecture as to what!
modifications, if any, will be made on
the bill on further reading. Its final
passage iu any shape means a vast
amount of work at the hospital for the
insane in the very near future —prob- j
ably next summer.
The one feature of the bill, which
affects Danville as a town is the ap- j
propriation of §IB,OOO for the purpose j
of providing additional means for the
disposal of sewage. The "additional
means" is nothing less than the con
structing of a sewer in the canal to
connect with the borough's sewer at
the aqueduct.
While it is true that before this
item becomes available the system and
plan will have to be approved by the '
State board of health, yet as shown by
the report of the committee that visit-1
ed Harrisburg last week, Health Com
missioner Dr. Dixon was favorably
enough impressed with the proposition
to recommend the appropriation, as
far as it goes, and promised to send an
engineer here to look over the ground.
Should the canal be sewered as pro
posed it will not only abate the nuis- j
ance now existing iu the old water
way, but will give our town the bene
fit of additional sewerage.
Each of the items of the appropria
tion is followed with a statement that
the money is not to become available
until the plans and specifications are
approved by the governor. It is said
that the object of tying up the money
in this manner by the house appropria
tions committee is to make it impossi
ble for those in charge to employ any
other style of building than that ap
proved by the governor.
The bill making the appropriation
of 1389,300 indicates that the recom
mendations of Chairman Walton and
one of the noted alienists that the en
tire institution be torn down and re
built along more approved linos has
not beeu adopted, even if seriously
considered. At the same time it is j
made as plain as words can couvey the
idea that those buildings that are to
be erected will have to conform with
modern ideas as to the housing and care
of the insane
THE SOOTHING SPRAY of Ely's
Liquid Cream Balm, used in au at
omizer, is an unspeakable relief to
sufferers from Catarrh. Some of them
describe it as a Godsend, and no won
der. The thick, foul discharge is dis
lodged and the patient breathes freely,
perhaps for tiie first time iu weeks
Liquid Cream Balm contains all the
.healing, purifying elements of the
solid form, and it never fails to cure.

sparrow is under the ban. He is to be
investigated, it being alleged that he
does much mischief to growing crops
and fruit. And he is not only to be in
vestigated, but he is to be exterminat
ed, if Dr. Surface and his agents, act
ing as a grand jury, find a true bill
against him. In the house last week
there was reported from committee the
bill appropriating SI,OOO to investigate
the sparrow, and State Economic Zo
ologist Surface will if the bill be
comes a law, establish a number of
stations in a number of counties dur
ing the coming summer and note the
ravages of the bird that was brought
from England to exterminate the
worms on trees.

SNOW IN MEXICO.
For the first time in fifty years, on
February 11th, snow fell in the City
of Mexico, aud for a couplo of hours
the' palms aud tropical plants and
flowers were covered with a white
mantle, and children, who had never
seen snow,forgot togo to school. Am
erican visitors in the city taught the
children how to make snowballs aud
snow men, and there was great sport.
But there was great suffering as well
among the working people aud lower
classes, who as a rule go barefooted,
clad iu cotton, or a blanket thrown
over one shoulder and around the loins,
while none of the houses have stoves
for artificial heat.

Washington's birthday—next Friday
—will be appropriately celebrated iu

visiting members will be present from

Over-Work Weakens
Your Kidneys.
Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
All the blood in your body passes through
your kidneys once every three minutes.
fThe kidneys are your
blood purifiers, they fil
ter out the waste or
impurities in the blood.
If they are sick or out
of order, they fail to do
their work.
Pains, aches and rheu
matism come from ex- '
cess of uric acid in the i
—— blood, due to neglected
kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries."
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the" kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ning in kidney trouble.
If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild
and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is
soon realized. It stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distressing cases
and is sold on its merits f-"h
by all druggists in fifty
cent and one-dollar siz
es. You may have a
sample bottle by mail Homo of swamp-Root,
free, also pamphlet telling you how to find
out if you have kidney or bladder trouble.
Mention this paper when writing Dr. Kilmci
it Co., Binghamton, N. Y.
Don't make any mistake, but remem
berths name, Swanp-Root, Dr. Kil
mer's Swamp-Root, aud the addles

REFUSED TO PAY
TELEPHONE BILL
A unique case came before Alderman
Yeager iu Williamsport yesterday af
temoou.
Joseph S Yerger. contractor, was
the defendant, and the Bell Telephone
company prosecutor. The trouble all
came about because Yerger'sname was
misspelt in the telephone book, which
was issued last October. In the book
the name was spelt Yeager, and the
defendant claimed that the 'phone was
of little uso to him because no one
knew he had a 'phone in his home.
When a bill of sl9 was presented to
him the other day he refused to pay it
for the reason above stated.

TROLLEY KEN TO
LOBBY IT CAPITOL
Opposition to bills now before the
legislature affecting electric street
railways resulted in the formation of
tlte Temporary Street Railway asßOci
atinu, which is composed of more than
sixty companies in this State.
Committees of the organization were
announced to meet yesterday in the
Arcade building, iu Philadelphia, to
outline a plan of action.
What the street railway men consid
er one of the most obnoxious measures
aimed against them is one providing
for an increase in the taxation of elec
tric roads. If this bill passes the leg
islature, they say, it will bankrupt
many of the corporations by imposing
upon them hardships which they can
not bear and continue in business.
There are bills before the legislature
which the organization feels,ii adopt
ed. will meet the approval of the elec
tric trolley roads. Among these are
the measures providingfor the carrying
of freight by trolleys, and that con
ferring upon these roads the right of
eminent domain under proper condi
tions. The association will work hard
for the passage of these bills, and will
appeal directly to members of the leg
islature.
The editor of the Memphis, Tenn.,
"Times" writes: "In my opinion
Foley's Honey and Tar has accom
plished many permanent cures that
have been little short of marvellous."
Refuse au*y but the genuine in the yel
low package. Sold by all druggists.
REFORMATORIES JUSTIFIED.
The young fellows who are arrested
upon the threshold of a criminal care
er and sent to a reformatory often ac
cept with gratitude the instruction of
their teachers there and carve out for
themselves a new and successful care
er. More than half do so. That is full
justification for the cost of these in
stitutions to the State.
