THREE CHILDREN _
ARRAIGNED
A hearing took place before Justice
of the Peace Dalton Monday after
noon, in which the defendants were
three children. The hearing was of in
terest as showing what kind of penal
ties may be imposed when children
are accused of disorderly conduct aud
disturbing neighbors.
The prosecutor in the case was Owen
Horn, wUo lives near the corner of
Chambers ana D"irst streets. He lodg
ed information before the justice
charging that Francis.Marie and Alice
Fallon, children of Edward Fallon,
who resides next door to him,had been
guilty of disorderly conduct, calling
him names aud habitually annoying
him. The hearing took place at 2:30
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
The arrest was made under the act
of June 25, 1895,whichprovides a pen
alty of not over ten dollars along with
the cost of proceedings. Should there
be a failure to pay fine and costs im
prisonment may follow.
The tree youthful defendants at the
hearing were accompanied by their
mother, who putin a strong plea for
the children,explaining how assiduous
ly she labored to keep them under con
trol. She declared that she could not
believe them guilty of all charged
against them.
After weighing the matter Justice
Dalton decided to discharge Alice.'the
younger of the girls, holding the oth
er girl and her hrotlier. Even in the
case of the latter he decided to be leni
ent remitting the fine aud obliging the
two to pay only the costs, which
amounted to some four dollars.
Auto Caused a Runaway.
A valuable horse belonging to Miles
Pensyl was ruined in a runaway ac
cident at Elysburg last week, the re
sult of carelessness Sn the part of an
automobile driver. The horse was
standing in front of Squire Vought's
when the auto dashed by, striking the
hind hub of the carriage aud scaring
the horse. With a leap the auiiual
pulled out the tie post aud dashed
down the street [at breakneck speed.
Striking the corner of a bridge the
carraige, a new one, was demolished.
The horse continued runniug and fin
ally collided with a telephone pole,
sustaining serious injuries.
The residents of Elysburg are high
ly indignant over the speed of some of
the oars that pass through the village
and threaten to make it interesting if
the practice is not stopped.
i oncrete Culvert Is Completed.
The concrete culvert under North
Mill street between Spruce and Hem
lock streets is completed and that por
tion of North Mill street is now ready
for paving.
The brick pavement is completed for
one square. It is a well finished piece
of work and presents an artistic ap
pearauce. The course of limestone is
being applied between Spruce street
and the Dauville Milling company's
plant. Tne steam roller was at work
on the course of cinder yesterday and
it will not be long until another square
will be ready for laying brick.,
Of course, in its present state, while
the brick are beiug laid. North Mill
street is of necessity closed to traffic.
There will be a period of several weeks
during which Montour row and Upper
Mulberry street will have to be used
instead of North Mill street.
Epidemic Is Killing Bees.
Within the last few days State Eco
nomic Zoologist Surface has received
a number of complaints about the
havoc being played among bees in var
ious parts of the State by a disease
which he had diagnosed as "foul
blood." The complaints have come
from half a dozen widely separated
counties,includiug Franklin,Venango,
Wyoming aud others, showing that
the disease if local now, may spread.
The bees speedily die from this sick
ness, which is bacteriological and is
propagated among the bees by honey,
although persons are not affected by
eating honey which may be fatal to
its makers.
A water commissioner will be elect
ed at the next meeting of council Fri
day. The term of T. J. Rogers ex
pires. Mr. Rogers, who has filled the
office very acceptably, it is said, does
not desire to be re-elected.

A LASTING EFFECT.
This Evidence Should Prove Eyery Claim
Made for Doan's Kidney Pills
in Danville.
2 Relief from the pains and aches of a
bad back is always welcome to every
backache sufferer; but to cure a lame,
weak or aching back is what's want
ed. Cure it so it will stay cured. It
can be done. Here's the strongest evid
ence to prove it:
Thomas Lewis, retired, of 615 Mill
St., rays: "lean only reiterate my
former statement made in 1896 about
Doan's Kidney Pills. They cured me
eight years ago and the cure then made
has been lasting and I have had no re
turn of my old trouble. Before using
them I was troubled with backache. I
used everything recommended but got
no reliof. The lameness over the kid
neys and the terrible aching continu
ed in spite of everything that I did
and there seemed to bo no relief Jfor
me. I learned about Doan's Kidney
Pills and read thejstatements made|by
people who had used them and con
cluded to try them. They not only re
moved the lameness the backache but
niey Denentm m,y iicnui. iu
They also relieved the headaches of
which I had been subject for a con
siderable length of time. I can re
commend Doan's Kidney Pills as a re
liable backache and kidney cure."

Danville Man Hurt at Bloom.
Lloyd Krum, of Danville, employed
in the erecting department, of the
Bloom A. C. & F. plant met with a ser
ious accident, Monday morning which
will keep him from work for several
days. He had just started to build a
caboose, and was driving a nail in the
floor. The first blow was struck glanc
ingly,"aud the nail flew up and struck
his spectacles smashing the glass and
a gash about one-half inch was cut in
the lower eyelid.
The wound bled profusely and it was
first thought his eye had been perman
ently ruined, but after being taken to
the office of Dr. J. J. Brown, it was
found that the ball of the eye had not
been injured, and that it would be
only a question of time until the gash
would heal. Several small pieces of
glass were removed from the out.

MUST ADVERTISE
FOR PROPOSALS
The act of May 5, 1906, making it
unlawful for counties to contract to
repair or rebuild bridges without due
advertisement for sealed proposals is
entailing considerable more work and
expense on our county commissioners,
who have four bridges to repair or re
build this summer. In all oases where
the contraot amounts to #290. or over
advertisements must run for three
weeks in three newspapers. In "case
of emergency" it is provided that one
week may suffice.
In each case the three bridges that
our county will havo to repair or re
build this summer will cost more than
|250. There is only one—the bridge
at Exchange—to be repaired, but the
amount of work, which, acording to
the plans, will be required there will
run the cost up considerably. It is
necessary to overhaul this structure at
the very earliest date, which brings
the case in the catagory of "emerg
ency cases," where one week's adver
tising suffices.
The bridge at Exchange is situated
near the new bank building. It is an
iron structure, which not only needs a
new floor but is imperfect without
wingwalls. The commissioners have
decided to make a departure,replacing
the planking with a concrete floor.
They will also build wingwalls anil
finish up the bridge in an artistic
manner. The structure is thirty-eight
feet long.
Proposals will be asked for building
other bridges as follows :
An iron bridge over the Chillisqua
que creek at DeGreeu's farm in Derry
township.
An iron bridge over the branch of
the Chillisquaque near the farm of
former County Commissioner W. E.
Royer in Liberty township.
An iron bridge over the samo stream
at the farm of Mrs. Ellen Henry on
the road leading trom Centre church
to the Milton road.
"We never repent of eating too little,"
was one of the ten rules of life of
Thomas Jefferson, president of the
United States, and the rule applies to
every one without exception during
this hot weather, because it is hard
for food, even in small quantities to
be digested when the blood is at high
temperature. At tiiis season we should
eat sparingly and properly. We should
also help the stomach as much as poss
ible by the use of little Kodol for In
digestion and Dyspepia, which will
rest the stomach by digesting the food
itself. Sold by Paules & Co.
Miss Oelia Bassett Claimed by Death.
Misss Celia T. Bassett. whose serious
illness was noted in these columns,de
parted this life at 3:45 o'clock Satur
day morning.
Her illness covered a period of many
months; since February she was con
fined to iier room. She was known to
bo corinnoiy ill and no hope was enter
tained for her recovery, but during
the latter part of last week she seemed
much better than for some time. Her
death, therefore, which came sudden
ly Saturday morning, proved a great
shock.
The deceaed was a woman of beauti
ful character,esteemed and beloved by
all who knew her and the news of her
death will cause much sorrow through
out the community. Three sisters sur
vive : Mrs. H. H. Yorgy. of Wilkes-
Barre ; Misses Lucy and Ahla Bassett,
of this city.
The funeral will take place tomor
row at 4 p. in. Interement in the Odd
B'ellows' cemetery.
Those who have stomach trouble, no
matter how slight , should give every
possible help to the digestive oragns,
so that the food may be digested with
the least effort. This may be done by
taking something that contains nat
ural digestive properties—something
like Kodol For Indigestion aud Dys
pepsia. Kodol is a preparation 'of
vegetable acids and contaiuglthe very
same juices found in a healthy stom
ach. It digests what you eat. Sold

The Banner Hay drop,

of the grain and hay crops they har
vested, but it remained for Captain \V
C. Patters,farm superintendent of the
Pennsylvania State College Experi
mental station, not only to produce
the largest crop of hay from a given
number of acres, but, so far as there
is any record, the largest yield ever
known on the experimental farm. At
one cutting twenty-five large loads of
timothy hay were harvested from six
measured acres. Several loads each
weighed over one ton. A representa
tive acre weighed separately indicat
ed a yield of five tons and 189 pounds
to the acre or a total yield on the six
acres of thirty tons and 1134 pounds.
Sworn In As Special Officer.
John W. Kreiger, watchman on the
grounds of Castle Grove, was sworn in
as a special officer by Chief Burgess
Rogers Monday. He was invested
with a star and henceforth will make
arrests whenever such action is neces
sary to enforce rules and preserve ord
er about the estate.
The owner of Castle Grove is much
annoyed by trespassers, who have
grown very insolent. Notwithstand
ing that it is known to be in violation
of the rules bathing in the dam skirt
ed by the pleasant drive has become
quite common,men as well as boys in
dulging in the sport in a nude state.
On every part of the ground notices
have been posted warning people
against trespassing, whether In swim
ming or in other ways. The swearing
in of the watchman as a special officer
indicates that-the law'will bo invoked
to prevent trespassing.

AS VIEWED
' Jff CITIZENS
The fact is not to be disputed that
there is a feeling abroad in town akin
to indignation over the apparent in
difference manifested by council as to
the condition of East Market street.
The protest is general. What seeins
to be especially aggravating is the long
sustained neglect. The street has been
bad for years. Finally the electric
railway was built; this it was thought
would bring about au era of improve
ment, but since the track was laid the
street has been in a worse condition
than before.
Appeal after appeal has gone into
council, but the members apparently
have been too greatly absorbed in
street paving apd macadamization in
other parts of town to give much heed.
Meanwhile things have gone from bad
to worse. Deep ruts were worn in the
street, while mud with every rain lay
several inches deep. The crossing
stoues between the trolley tracks, laid
by the merest novices, were loose and
out of place, jarring vehicles and mak
ing it unpleasant for pedestrians.
Finally two corrective measures were
adopted by council. It was decided
that the crossing stones be relaid and
that tlie street be scraped. The orders
were carried out but a visit to the
street today shows that the cross
ing stones are, if possible, in a worse
condition than before. The street has
been scraped, which, while removing
the mud has left a stouy uneven
surface, which suggests au old worn
out tunrpike road.
The general protest at the last meet
ing of council was voiced by a mem
ber from the second ward. It was sug
gested that nothing less than a coat of
limestone would suffice to fix the
street up in good condition where the
mud hail been removed. The outcome
of the matter was that council "took
no action". The question of "lime
stone" was settled by a motion,whioh
carried, to the effect that "no repairs
be placed on East Market street be
tween Church and Mill streets, "as pav
ing on that section is remotely in
view.
Meanwhile people who use the street
gee no relief. The prospect of a pave
ment below Ohureh or Railroad street
might afford some consolation if there
were any prospects of such au im
provement being any nearer thau it
was four years ago. It is sincerely
hopod that council between the present
and Autumn will cast off its indiffer
ence as relates to East Market street
and decide to give that part of town
some of the benefits of street improve
ment.

PURCHASED THE
GERMANIA BREWERY
The Germania Brewing plant of this
city has been purchased by E. Gaert
ner of Oreason, who is already ou the
ground and Friday began making
his first brew.
The purchaser will not take sole pos
session of the plant until September
Ist. The purchase includes with the
brewery the residence adjoining, oc
cupied by Webster Foust Mr. Foust
will vacate the dwelling within the
next few weeks and on September Ist
Mr. Gaertner will move into the house.
Foust brothers, comprising Webster,
Curry and Heister Foust, have owned
and operated the Germania brewing
plant for some twelve years. During
the time that it was in their posses
sion the whole plant was rebuilt and
many improvements were installed. It
is the intention of the new owner to
make additional improvements, instal
ling a modern bottling department and
otherwise adding to its equipment un
til the plant will have no superior in
this sootion.
The brewery is one of the very old
est hereabout. Nearly a hundred years
ago. long before lager beer became
popular as a beverage in this country,
the plant was in existence. Its prod
uct for many years was common beer,
a cheap and popular beverage, which
seemed to satisfy the appetite of peo
ple of that day. One of the first own
ers that iB recalled by the old timers
is a man by the name of Matchin.who
in process of time was succeeded by-
Philip Foust, father of Foust broth
ers, the recent owners. Mr. Foust
many years ago sold out to John
Bausch, who in turn dipsosed of the
brewery to Foust brothers.
E. Gaertner, the new proprietor,is a
native of Germany, who has been in
this country for twenty-two years. He
is a practical brewer and at present is
conducting a brewery at Cressou. He
will be solely in charge oi the German
ia plant and will be his own brew mas
ter. The change of ownership will ef
fect but little change in ttie personnel;
the old working force will be retain
ed. Mr. Gaertner stated yesterday that
one new man might be brought here,
but that would be the limit.

Picnickers Encountered Rain.
The church and Sunday school of
Shiloh Reformed church held their an
nual outing at Columbia park Friday.
The weather was wholly unfavor
able, but the picnickers found oppor
tunity to enjoy themselves in many
ways. Two car-loads left town in the
rain shortly after 8 o'clock. Most of
the picnickers held to the view that it
would stop raining before 11 o'clock
and relying upon the large pavilion
for shelter at any event decided to take
the risk.
It occurred, however, that the rain
continued until nearly noon, while be
yond that hour the sky remained
cloudy, which prevented the ground
from drying off immediately and sug
gested the probability of more rain.
By middle of the afternoon the clouds
broke and conditions became much
inoro favorable for picnicking.
The Danville and Bloomsburg cars
that carry picnio parties now run all
the way through to Columbia park.
Not being obliged to change cars at
Bloomsburg is a big advantige, which
is appreciated at all times, especially,
when it happens to rain.

During the early morning shower
which visited this section Tuesday
the barn of Francis Woll on Bald Top
was struck by lightning and burned
to the ground. The scene of the fire
was little more than a mile from Dan
ville and the burning building was
distinctly visible from several parts
of town.
It was about 7 :30 o'clock when the
bolt of lightning entered the barn.
C. E. Artley, tenant on the farm, had
just gone to a neighbor's,a mile away,
to secure hands to help him to threßh.
He saw the bolt which struck his barn
and he at once started for home, run
ning all the way.
Fortunately none of the live stock
was in the barn, otherwise it would
have perished. The season's crops—
about 350 bushels of wheat, 100 bushels
of rye and 8 tons of hay—were burn
ed, along with a threshing machine,
windmill, corn sholler, and a farm
wagon. The barn—a building 30x42
feet—was built only two years ago.
Unfortunately neither landlord nor
tenant carried any insurance.
Mr. Artley is farming "on shares"
and consequently was owner of the
farm implements, with the exception
of the threshing machine as woll as of
one-half of the season's crops.
Hay Fever and Summer Ooids,
Victims of hay fever will experience
great benefit by taking Foley's Honey
and Tar, as it stops difficult breathing
immediately and heals the inflamed
air passages, and even if it should fail
to cure you it will give instant re
lief." The genuine is in a Yellow
package. For salo by all dealers.

Bis: Owl 0e light in Steel Trap.
Mrs. Joseph H. Wintersteen of West
Hemlock township on Monday captur
ed an owl in a steel trap. The bird is
a monster and for a long time past
had been preying on Mrs. Winter
steeu's chickens. He is as large as a
full grown rooster and when chickens
did not happen to come liis way he
did not hesitate to tackle the turkeys,
whioh roosted on a tree.
The owl is nocturnal in its habits
and mostly operates in the nighttime.
The predatory bird,therefore, was not
likely to be detected while in quest ot
prey and but for his incautious act of
stepping into the steel trap he misht
still be enjoying his freedom.
Mrs. Wintersteeu has not killed the
owl, which is an exceedingly fine
specimen, with the large eyes and ears
and other conspicuous features that
make an owl interesting.
