Keofer, superintendent of con struction, with 11 force of men Tues day began work 011 the excavation for the foundation of the Soldiers' monu ment. The lirst day sufficed to reveal thaf the job it- (joiuc: to be a difficult on 9 owing to the prcncuoe ot water, which has made it necessary to in stall a pump. It is a well known fact that the cemetery is a wet and soggy spot, es pecially in the center, where the site of the uiouuiuent lies. It was hardly expected, however, that water would be encountered so soon. .Mr. Keeferjthinkg it will he neces sary to sink tlie excavation,at last ten feet before a solid bottom will be found. Upon attaining a depth of three feet Tuesday water was encountered and before the work conid proceed further it was necessary to install a handpump and lay pipe to conduct the water to an intake in the park drain some 80 feet distant. The accumulation of water will no doubt prove a great annoyance and a hindrance as the work progresses, as it mav be necessary to keep the pump in constant operation when a greater depth hasjbeen attained. Manv Lives Lost ic Coal Mines. Adverting to the many lives lost in our coal mines the Phoenixville Daily Republic in says:"The loss of life in the mines in Pennsylvania last year was about one thousand. This bh>od cast is due almost altogether to the carelessness of the miners and the companies operating the mines. There is nothing to commend mining as a desirable occupation. Lives aud health are sacrificed to the darkness, and damp and gloom. No man can live a happy aud vigorous life without plenty of God's sunshine and fresh air. But there is no reason why min ing should be recorded as a particul arly hazardous occupation so far as the probability of accidents is con cerned, if reasonable precautions were taken at all times. A human life now and then in the mines attracts little attention Dangerous walls and roots are neglected, aud gases are ignored until some areat disaster draws the attention of the public, but in such cases 110 one suggests that striugeut measures should be taken to prevent auother such catastrophe."

SHIPPING APPLES ANH BUCKWHEAT If in v p .rson Inbnr* muler the drlti ■ton that the apple crop Is not a liirge one this year he ahonld pay n visit to South Danville, where a ear load made np of all varieties I* being shipped away each day of the week. As a matter of fact on Saturday font carloads were shipped, while (luring each day this week at least one car will be placed on the siding to be loaded with apples It is'understoort that at least eight car* will be ship ped this week. The apples come from over a wide radius taking in Montour and a large portion of Northumberland counties. No finet specimens of frnlt were ever seen than are loaded 011 the cars at South Danville. All varieties of ap ples are embraced bnt,those|which are exceptionally fine are Rambos, Smoke house, Baldwins andJGroenlug*. With very lew exceptions they are picked apples and are very sound anil healthy in appearance. The firm that is doing the shipping is I. Shafer and Son. of! Pittsbnrg. whose agent buying up apples passed through this section some weeks ago The price paid is snid to be 1 cent tier pouud or fifty cents per bushel for picked apples and twenty cents per bushel for dropped apples. The loading of the cars presents a very iuteiesfiuu sight. The apples are loaded iu hulk,each car being furnish ed with bins to hold the different var ieties Each car approximately con tains 800 bushels. Of the four car loads shipped Saturday three, went to Pittsburg and one to Illinois It is worthy of note are being shipped from Wolvertou,a station this side of Suubury, in'numbers nearly as great as at South Danville. Charles Mills,who has charge of the freight house at the South Danville station, is literally working over time to take care of the en rmous shipment being made over the Pennsy. Not only apples, but also buckwheat, which is au exceptionally heavy crop this year, is helping to overtax tlie shipping facilities. One shipment of buckwheat alone comprised three cars loaded to the roof. Almost any day now the siding con tains as it were a train of cars receiv ing and unloading merchandise and is altogether au impressive object lesson to show, not only the agricultnral re sources of this locality, but also the importance of South Danville as a shipping centre. Incredible as it may seem, the account of cars received and forwarded kept in the freight house show that forty cars and upwards arc handled each day at South Danville. The shipment of sand adds very much to the volume of business at this as >vell as other seasons of the ye»r.

About nine o'clock Monday morn ing people were alarmed by a steam whistle which sounded one prolonged blast lasting for about fifteen minut s. There was nothing particularly shrill or ominous in tbe sound of the whistle aud for the first several min utes no one thought anything of it, but after the sound continued without the least halt or variation for five minutes 01 more people began to be alarmed, thinking that there might be a fire at one of our industries. People had great difficulty in locat ing the sound. Meanwhile another five minutes passed and the whistle went merrily on. Finallv the crowd made its way ont toward the north end of towu. convinced that the noise must lie in that direction. The whistle was found to come from a P. & R. locomotive that was in trouble. The engine was shifting cars on the switch and had occasion to sound the whistle when owing to some defect in the valve, it wai fouud im possible to shut off steam. Everything was done.but it was found impossible to control the whistle until after it had caused any amount of excitement. mm m THE RONOI6NT Affair* relating to thf unlrltpt"*' monument arp taking tanuihle form Pl«n« *r»» OH fool, which provide for the constnietlon of a fonhdatmn Hltl fall, the completion of the memorial early next «mmnier *llli MVidlltnt e* ercl*e«,on July 4Ht, to he the dipt inc. nishing feature of one of the mom Hti posing d monntratloni that ever took paele in Danville on day A meeting of the noldtetn' monu ment committee took place on Friday night In addition to Hon.

Everv Sunday the minister appeared and taught the Word, but each time to fewer people. Growing a trifle desperate,tl:e parish ioners decided on amove which, they thought, could not liplp hut relieve them of their spiritual gu de. Taking the matter before the annual conference they received a decision from the elders to the effect that Rev. Heyer should vac:«tc. The preacher swallowed this as l.e had the cithers and calmly prepared his next Souday's sermon Recently the question received the attention of the synod, the highest tribunal of the chnrch. As in the oth er instances, the decision went to the people. an 4 in a letter the Rev. Heyer was told that inasmuch as he conld not do any good while remainii'e in Trevorton he slmnld leave at once Bur all the power that man can master cannot oust this worker iu the Master's vineyard. He is tl ere to stay, lies-ays, until the Lord shows him that he has been called to another chnrch. When the trouble first arise the -harch council decided to cut down the pi-tor's -alary. This they did, reducing the v arly stipend fron. SSOO to #IOO. For oue yeat the minister has managed to subsist on this meagre in come. Saturday the council again held a meeting and came to the conclusion that since it -eems absolutely impos sible to remove tiie pastor they would resign and let chnrch and pastor take care of themselves. Ir will be practically impossible for Rev. Heyer to organize another coun cil, as all but two of the parishioners are lined up against him.

Local sportsmen who have been out gunning as well as farmers through out the county, who have abundant opportunity to observe, seem unanim ous in the opinion, that there is no real scarcity although they may not be so plentiful as during some other seasons. They nearly all agree, however that rabbits are small —that is, that they have not yet at tained their full growth. The latter could soem to bear out the opinion prevailing in many places that the season as fixed by the present law opens too early. Wild turkeys seem scarce. None of our local hunters, have as yet, suc ceeded iu bagging one. What is more significant, however, no one yet this season has reported seeing wild tur keys. Coon hunting is the order of the day among young farmers. Coons are always fairly plentiful bnt it requires an experienced huuter and a good dog to capture one. John Robinson and son Clarence of Mooresburg, aided by a capable dog, got a fine coon on Thursday night. They treed the animal about 10 o'clock and in order to make sure of their game staid up with the coon all night. When the first streak of dawn reveal ed the whereabouts of the coon among the branches the little animal was brought down from the tree by the trusty aim of Clarence's gun. EVERY nor.
