WAR AGAINST
MOSQUITOES
The pesky little mosquito has receiv
ed the attention of State Health Com
missioner Saumel G. Dixon iu a pam
phlet just issued by the State depart
ment of health entitled," 1 he Malarial
Mosquito and the Rain Barrel Mos
quito—How They Grow and How to
Get Rid of Them."
"People get malaria when bitten by
a malarial mosquito," declares Dr.
Dixon, and lieuce the necessity of its
extermination. And as this particular
breed keeps company,especially around
stagnant pools, with other mosquitoes
that torment and bite with equal an
noyance, even though with less harm
ful results, the tiling to do is to rnako
unrelenting war against the whole
family. Since the methods of exter
mination in the case of these mere
nuisance mosquitoes are the same as
are employed in fighting the malarial
mosquito, the conquest of the one
means the annihilation of the others.
"They breed only in water,but only
in water that is free from their
enemies—fishes and other acquatic in
sects —or in bodies of water that are
fringed or covered with vegetation
that protects them from their foes.
"The breeding of mosquitoes, there
fore, is limited to a minimum of the
water area of the State, that is in
significant compared with the total
water area, and tor this reasou, mos
quito breeding can be controlled and
even be made impossible at an exjiense
eci"inTesfonng"to'"healV?i Vhose wlio
sutler through this menace to health
and comfort. In most cases the cause
cau be permanently removed by fill
ing in or draining, or cleaning and
stocking with their natural enemies,
water areas in which mosquitoes breed
and the application of fuel oil or kero
sene, which does not do away with but
only suspend? the cause of the trouble
should be used only until I lie lasting
remedy can be resorted to, or in the
very few instances where lasting im
provement is out of the question."
Here is Heatlli Commissioner Dix
on's advije in the matter of getting
rid of mosquitoes:
"Report all water that stands for
more than five days, sluggish streams,
swift streams with vegetaion in them
or along their shores, lakes, ponds, or
in fact any standing water, to the
local health officer. In many com
munities where these pests prevail, as
is well known, much good has been
accomplished by voluntary associa
tions under the name of mosquito
brigades which have made tiiis oue of
their duties."
Country Cburch Kaised $1188.24.
An example of religious generosity
was presented at Stawberry Ridge on
Sunday when the congregation of the
Trinity Reformed church raised $llBB.-
24 at two meetings.
The occasion was the rededication of
Trinity church after the extensive al
terations and repairs that have been
installed about the church property
recently. About 1450 had already been
raised to defray the expenditures of
the improvements and the collections
of Sunday ruu the total funds for the
improvements up to some SI6OO, which
will more tiiau cover the outlay.
Rev. Martin Luther Fisher, of Leb
anon, was ttie preacher of the day. He
delivered two magnificent sermons,
morning and evening. At both the
services the church was packed.
The improvements at the church are
practically completed ami cousist of a
new vestibule,a new hell; the interior
was renovated with fresh paper, paint
and carpet, furniture and altar were
installed. Outside a concrete walk and
a coat of paint adds to the appearance.
The Trinity Reformed church, of
which Rev. Kohler is pastor, has a
flourishing congregation, numbering
about 220 members.
Painting Rectory.
The rectory of Ohrist Episcopal
church is receiving a new ooat of

INNOCENT MAN
RDNSJAUNTLET
Harry Evans, who resides oil Blooms
burg r. 112. d. No. 4,liad au exciting ex
perience Saturday night, that lie will
not care to repeat very soon.
Mr. Evans had been visiting Satur
day evening in Frosty valley. On his
return home, while his horse was plod
ding along the road, lie fell asleep.
With the master wrapped in the arms
of Morpheus, the steed wandered
whither he pleased, eventually wind
ing up in a barn yard.
The owner of the place that had
been invaded, hearing the noise that
the intruder had occasioned among the
fowls, unceremoniously opened fire.
Mr. Evans, thinking that discretion,
in his case, would be the better part
of valor, fled.
But the irate farmer, was not to be
so easily appeased. With the aid of
his handy rural phone, he woke up
every householder in Frosty valley,
and told each one to capture or kill a
thief, who had just left his place in a
buggy.
As a consequence when Mr. Evans
appeared dashing up the road he was
greeted by a fusilade of shots at each
farmhouse. For five miles lie ran the
gauntlot, and then was captured. It
was with some difficulty that he was
able to induce the captors to believe
that he was really not a dangerous
robber, but only an ordinary,everyday
citizen, doing his best to get home to
bed. He was finally allowed to depart.
GOOD NEWS.
Many Danville Headers Have Heard It and
Profited Thereby.
" Good news travels fast," and the
thousands of bad back sufferers in
Danville are glad to learn that prompt
relief is within their reach. Many a
lame, weak and aching back is bad no
more, thanks to 1 Joan's Kidney Pills.
Our citizens are telilng the good news
of their experience with the Old
Quaker Remedy. Here is au example
worth reading:
Miles Fry, carpenter, of 445 West
First St., Bloomsburg, says:"The
statement I made in 1896 is about all I
can say regarding my experience with
Doans' Kidney Pills. I have not had
any backache siuce I used them. Be
fore taking this remedy I had chills in
my back across the loins accompanied
by a weakness and dull heavy pain in
my head as well. I was also very much
auuoyed by too frequent action of the
kiduey secretions. I used many reme
dies without relief until I learned of
Doan's Kidney Pills aud obtained a
| box. They soon cured me and I have
had no return of the trouble during
the past eight years. I know of sever
al other people in Bloomsburg who
have used Doan's Kidney Pills with
good results aud who spenl: of them
in the very highest terms."

STORi WRECKED
GREEN lODSES
A storm accompanied by wind of
cyclonic fury, swept Bloomsburg Sat
urday afternoon, creating havoc at a
number of places, but doing especial
damage at Dillon's fine greenhouses.
At about 4:45 o'clock two storms,
one from the northeast and one from
the southwest seemed to meet nearly
above Normal hill. There was a ter
rific downpour of rain and some hail,
but the greatest damage was done by
the excessively high wind.
The force of the storm was first felt
at Dillon's residence, where trees were
uprooted. Mr. and Mrs. N. Schaffle,
visitors at the Dillon home,were driv
ing up from Bloomsburg, in a buggy.
The wind, striking the buggy, over
turned it, threw out the occupants,
and demolished the vehicle. An empty
hay wagon,standing in a nearby field,
was thrown over, and splintered.
At the green houses, two of the big
houses were completely demolished.
One, a rose house, 210 by 22 and an
other, a carnation house, 210 by 11
were unroofed and nearly every glass
broken. W. C. Bryfogle, who was in
the rose house, was caught by the fall
ing timbers, and narrowly escaped
with his life. The stack on the en
gine house was blown over. Iu all
about 7000 square feet of glass was
broken.
Several other industries iu that sec
tion of Bloomsburg, were partly un
roofed and other minor damage was
done, but the wind seemed to spend
most of its fury in the vioinity of the
Dillon greenhouses.

Many Luxuriant Fields of Coru.
Another large market Tuesday
morning attested to the abundance of
vegetables, berries aud other products
of the soil, which follows as the result
of the hot sunshine and the abundance
of rain. Farmers from every part of
the county express themselves as amaz
ed at the rapid growth and develop
ment of the crops. The corn, which
at many places iu the spring was a
month later than usual,has more than
made up for lost time aud was never
farther ahead at this season. Here
and there fields may ue seen iu which
the rank, luxuriant stalks reach near
ly to a man's shoulder. All of this
goes to show that nature has a com
pensation for nearly every drawback
aud is quite cousoliug after the gener
al predictou made that the crops ow
ing to the backward spring, would be
short this season.
J. W. Lowrie of Strawberry Ridge,
who was iu this city Tuesday, re
marked that his wheat crop this year
is the heaviest he has ever harvested
in his life.
Operation Was Successful.
The many friends of our townsman,
D. C. Hunt, will be pleased to learn
that he is improving after having un
dergone a serious operation at the
University of Pennsylvania hospital
in Philadelphia.
Mr. Hunt left for the hospital a
week ago last Friday. On Monday the
operation was perfromed, but it was
not until Saturday that au encourag

FIVE MINUTES IN
HOSPITAL, DIED
Five minutes after she was admitted
to the Joseph Ratti hospital, at
liloomsburg, at about 8:30 o'clock on
Saturday morning, Miss Ida Gold
smith, of this city, died. She was
suffering from peritonitis, with which
the had been ill a week.
The young woman was taken ill Sat
urday a week ago, and as the illness
grew worse, her physician, advised
that she be taken to the Joseph Ratti
hospital for the purpose of having an
operation performed in the hopes of
saving her life.
Owing to the fact that the young
woman was also subject to car sick
ness, it was thought best to drive the
whole distance. This was decided up
on, aud she was placed in a hack ou a
cot, and the trip was made.
When the party was nearing Blooms
burg it was seen that she was serious,
and she had hardly been taken inside
the institution when she died.
Beside her mother, Mrs. Caroline
Goldsmith, the deceased is survied by
the following brothers aud sisters:
Mrs. Max Gross, of Bloomsburg; Mrs.
Harry Ellenbogeu and Mrs. Herbert

G. B. GRIFFITH
VISITS DANVILLE
G. B. Griffith, cf Los Angeles,Cal.,
a Danville boy, whose eventful career
is well known to the public, was in
this city Friday and called upon a
number of his old time friends. ■*
As is well known Mr. Griffith is
much indebted to this city. The full
story of how he strolled into Danville
when a boy, poor and friendless,
many years ago, and was assisted by
kind and sympathetic people, educat
ed and equipped for the serious work
of life is an old story and will hardly
bear repeating. The boy is now a
man well ou toward sixty, although
time has dealt kindly enough with
him, his form being as erect as in
youth and his hair unmixed with grey.
Fortune has likewise been kind to the
man, for, notwithstanding his trials
and vicissitudes, the fortune which he
amassed earlier in life still remains
substantially intact.
Mr. Griffith will be recalled as the
former citizen of Danville who present
ed a magnificent tract of land, repre
senting a large fortune in itself,to the
city of Los Angeles to be used as a
public park. He has lived in Los An
geles for some twenty-five years. He
left thero about two months ago and
after a wide tour of some four thous
and miles embracing the City of Mex
ico and points of our own country he
arrived at the Montour house on
Thursday night.
He came to Danville from Kings
ton, Luzerne county, where he has a
son attending the Wyoming seminary
It is a tribute to true sentiment, and
gratitude that the man after so many
years should visit the town where the
turning point of his life occurred.
His object was solely to renew old as
sociations.
Friday forenoon he was driven up
to the Lutheran cemetery, where on
the occasion of a previous visit, some
twelve years ago, he caused a hand
some monument to be erected over the
hrave of Benjamin Mowrey, who gave
him a home when he came to Dan
ville, poor and friendless. While here
Mr. Griffith paid a visit to Charles
Chalfant, Esq., who is confined to his
home at South Danville. Mr. Chal
faut attended school with Mr. Griffith
in the third ward, some forty years
ago. The visitor called upon several
other townsmen whom he knew as
school mates and plav fellows, but
who now like himself are advancing
iu years
While in Dauville Mr. Griffith vis
ited Christ Episcopal church. He
was delighted with the building and
took occasion to remark that although
he had crossed the ocean eleven times
and had visited most of the great cit
ies of the world, he had never seen a
structure of the size of Christ Episco
pal church that could lay greater
claim to architectural beauty.
Mr. Griffith left Danville for Ash
land on the 12:5? D. L. & W. train
yesterday.

VILLAGE DESERTED
BY LURE OF GOLD
BUDAPEST, July 24.
The lure of the United States as a
land of opportunity and wealth to the
people of Hungary has brought about
a curious state of attairs in the little
village of Kerisova near Lugos, that
at the last census had a population of
3,500 souls.
One by one the male residents of
, Kerisova heard the call across the wa-
I ter and they emigrated in batches un
til such time as the mayor was the
only adult male to remain by the vill
age. Finally lie also succumbed to the
reports of good wages and golden
chances in America sent back by his
fellow townsmen and packing his
trunk lie made his way to the emigr
ant ship at Fiume.
As a result of this exodus of males
the women of Kerisova have just elect
ed a yonug woman to the position of
mayor and other female residents have
been elected to fill the remainder of
the municipal offices. The statutes in
Hungary provide that no female shall
hold public office and according to the
letter of the law the presence of the
women in office is illegal

Fifty deaths resulting from the heat

some of which may yet prove fatal, is
the record of Pittsburgh and its sub
urbs for the week ending with Satur
day night. The maximum temperature
was 85 to 87 degrees and it has often
in previous years been hotter, but the
humidity was unusnally great, whioh
wrought such sad results.
