ELEVATORS
AND POCKETS
Robert J. Pegg has broken ground
on Northumberland street for the erec
tion of a modern establishment for
carrying ou the coal business. The
plant, which will consist of elevators
and pockets, will be the first of its
kind in this section.
The site selected is the tract lying
just east of Mahoning creek between
the D. L. & W. railroad and North
umberland street, which was occupied
by a coal yard some years ago. Com
paratively recently the tract, which be
longs to the Reading Iron company,
was filled up on a level with the
street. In order to get rid of the trestl
ing the D. L. & W. railroad company
about the same time filled up under
its track, thus rendering it impossible
to reinstall the coal bins that former
ly did service. The place at present
is in no respect adapted to a coal yard
of the old-fashioned type. Mr. Pegg,
therefore, decided to install a modern
plant, as above described.
The building for storage,containing
six pockets, will be forty feet by forty
two feet, ten inches and will be about
thirty feet high to the eaves. Between
the railroad and the building will be
a siding constructed by the D. L. &
W. railroad company. Underneath
the siding a pocket will be construct
ed. As the coal falls into the pocket
it will be caught by an elevator in the
form of aii endless belt or chain with
a series of scoops or buckets,by which
it will be carried to the very top of
the building and dropped into one or
another of the six pockets for storage.
To operate the elevator an eight-horse
power gasoline engine will be install
ed.
There will be two driveways on the
ground floor of the building, into
which a chute will extend from each
of the coal pockets. In delivering coal
to customers nothing more will be
necessary than to place a wagon in the
driveway and open the chute, permit
ting the coal to drop into the wagon
box. Thus in hauling out coal as well
as stocking up the pockets all labor is
reduced to a minimum, the expense of
operating being reduced probably one
half.
Mr. Pegg will also erect an office
besides a scales at the new place of
business.
John A. Mowrey is superintending
the construction of the plant.
Surprise Party.
A very pleasant surprise party was
tendered Mrs. Frank Miller on Satur

HUNTING PARTI
SHOOTS A BEAR
Harry Billmeyer has returned from
a hunting excursion to the northeast
ern part of Lyooming county, a wild
unsettled section embracing a part of
the Alleghany system, where condi
tions are favorable for the rapid pro
pagation of game in all varieties and
where, unless under exceptional
conditions, the hunter is sure of bag
ging all the pheasants he can carry.
Mr. Billmeyer's party shot a bear, but
as relates to other game his ;report is
rather discouraging than otherwise.
Mr. Billmeyer, accompanied by Al
fred Blaker and John Cornell of Phil
adelphia and Daniel Frazier of Waßh
mgtonville, a week ago left for Qlen
Mawr in the section of Lycoming
oounty above described. They hunted
with indifferent success from Monday
morning until Thursday noon.
Wednesday afternoon the monotony
of the trip was relieved by the discov
ery of a boar. Bruin was out in the
midst of a swamp when he was sur
prised by the dogs. The bear, which
was a big long-legged fellow, escaped
to a tree before the dogs came up. He
climbed the tree and probably fancied
he was safe.
A moment later he was brought
down by a bullet fired from the gun
of Lincoln Edkin, a guide, who with
his dogs, was picked up by the party
at Qlen Mawr.
The bear,dressed, weighed 180 pounds.
It was taken along to Philadelphia by
Messrs. Blaker and Cornell. Bears are
plentiful in that part of the State. A
large number have been seen this fall,
while foot prints are in evidence al
most everywhere.
Pheasants, Mr. Billmeyer states.are
scarce. The party succeeded in bag
ging only half a dozen. For the past
eight years Mr. Billmeyer each fall
has made a trip to that portion of Ly
coming county anil he has never before
returned home without bringing with
him forty to sixty pheasants.
Mr. Billmeyer attributes the scar
city of pheasants this year, to the pre
valence of cholera among the birds.
Thus early in the season there has
been but little shooting and the pheas
ants should be traveling in coveys.
Yet Mr. Billmeyer notes that in no in
stance did they see a pheasant but was
entirely alone and probably a mile or
two from any other bird.
Neither did they find rabbits plenti
ful in that excellent breeding ground
for game. Mr. Billmeyer states that
he himself had the good fortune to
shoot a jack rabbit, a rather rare var
iety belonging to the mountains,large
in size and white in color.
Nearly Ready for Machinery.
Within the next week or ten days
the machinery of the new knitting
mill, at Jersey Shore, will be putin
motion.
The building for the mill is nearly
completed, the roof is in place, the
floors are finished and the work of
finishing the window frames is being
rapidly pushed to completion.
Last week the last car load of mach
inery arrived and every effort is being
made to have the fall equipment in
stalled as soon as possible. John Peck
worth and John Hushen, both of Dan
ville, are superintending the placing
of the machinery. They have been in
town for several days, and the latter
will locate there permanently. Thom
as DeLanoy.tlie proprietor, will be in
Jersey Shore until after the plant is
put into operation. Mr. DeLaney is
exceedingly optimistic concerning his
outlook in Jersey Shore and predicts a
successful future for his industry.—

Black Bears in Point Township.
Black bears are becoming bold in
Point township,and are carrying their
depredations to within a few miles of
Northumberland. One evening last
week Voris Walker was coming
through his field carrying a lantern
when he almost stumbled over an old
female bear. She was lying benath an
oak tree with two cubs. Fortunately
she was as badly frightened as he was
and fled with her cubs to the woods.
Walker had no gun or club and would
have been in a bad plight had she at
tacked him.
On Sunday Claronce Fulton and
Peter Hine saw a bear a mile back of
Lithia Springs and fired four shots at
her without success. Bruin had a hole
dug beneath a tree to sleep in and the
tracks of his immense feet extended in
all directions.

FIREMEN APPEAL
TO COUNCIL
Whether a man living outside the
borough can belong to a fire company
in the borongh and more especially
whether such a non resident can hold
the responsible office of chief engineer
is an issue on whioh the members of
the Qoodwill hose company have for a
long time been divided. With a view
of obtaining a deoision by which all
must abide and thereby doing away
with the canse of a great deal of con
tention and ill-feeling the question
has been submitted to the borough
council by members of the company.
A committee of two appeared before
counoil at its last meeting and fuli'y
explained the situation. The Qood
will hose company, according to the
statement made, is divided into two
factions, which can not get together
on any issue, no matter how obvious
ly it would be for the common good.
One of these sides, the majority of
whose members reside outside the bor
ough, in numbers and influence out
weighs the other. The committee that
visited council represented the minor
ity side. It explained how the fire
company is handicapped at present.
Owing to the friction existing it is
impossible to elect new members, one
side or the other exercising its pre
rogative to use the black balls.
The members living outside the bor
ough are inconveniently situated for
running to fires and consequently do
not putin an appearance until too late
or not at all. The result of all this is
that the Qoodwill company is beaten
by the other fire companies and has to
depend upon the boys of the street to
assist in getting the hose carriage
back to the building.
The minority side, the committee
explained, has always contended that
members outside the borough should
not belong to the company. The issue
at present is forced by the fact that
the candidate for chief engineer, the
choice of which this year lies with
the Qoodwill hose company, lives out
side the borough.
The committee explained that the
minority is not antagonistic to the
candidate personally and that, if lie
would remove within the borough
limits, all opposition would be with
drawn.
Council after due consideration re
ferred the matter to the committee on
fire with instructions to consult the
borougli solicitor to determine wheth
er in view of all the facts there are
any legal obstacles in the way of the
non-resident candidate holding the
office of chief engineer.
It appears that outside of the Qood-
will hose company the question of in
eligibility is not considered and as a
precedent the members point to the
fact that Lawrence Butler, who lived
outside the borough, some years ago
was elected chief engineer and served
very acceptably.
PERFECT CONFIDENCE.
Danville People Have Good Ret son for
Complete Reliance.
Do yon know how—
To iiud quick relief from backache;
To correct distressing uriuary ills;
To surely cure sick kidneys?
Jnst one way—yonr neighbors know
Have used Doau's Kidney Pills;
Have proved their worth in many
tests.
Here's Danville testimony.
Mrs Edward E. Lunger of 11 Church
street.says: "I still think a great deal
of Doau's Kidney Pills. 1 would not
think of being without them in the
house. I made a statement for pub
lication in 18U6 in which I gave my
opinion of Doau's Kidney Pills on ao
count of the great benefit I had receiv
ed from their use.l have never had any
cause to regret making that statement
and now over ten years afterwards, I
can reiterate the statement. Before
taking this remedy I suffered for
months with backache and lameness
and soreness in the back. The pain
over my hips was continuous and when
ou my feet it was one steady gnawing
ache. It hurt me to do anything re
quiring a bending position, sharp
twinges would catch me so suddenly
that I had to brace myself until they
stopped. The kidney secretions an
noyed me and I often suffered from
headaches. 1 read statements given by
people in this vicinity who had used
Doan's Kidney Pills and concluded to
try them. They did me more good
than any other medicines I ever tried.
After a few doses I no longer experi
enced such seveie pain and finally the
pain was removed entirely. The an
noyance caused by the irregularities
of the kidney secretions was entirely
removed. I oau honestly recommend
Doau's Kidney Pills to those suffering
as I did."

TWENTY-TWO DEATHS
FOR OCTOBER
The report of the local registrar
shows twenty-two deaths for the
month of October. Four of the deaths
occurred at the hospital for the insane.
One case of scarlet fever was report
ed, the patient dying from the after
effects of the disease, No other cases
of contagious or infections diseases
were reported and as far as the rec
ords show our distriot would seem to
have been in a very healthfnl state
during last month.
As is natural on the approach of
winter bad colds prevailed and in
many instauces, the local registrar re
ports, the colds were complicated with
abdominal disorders. This form of
illness was qaite general in every part
of town.
The transition from warm to cold
weather has been quite gradual and,
with exercise of proper care and at
tention to clothing, under ordinary
circumstances persons should not be
exposed to urnch danger from colds.
As the weather ohanges from warm to
cold clothing should be taken 011 to
suit. The trouble is, when warmer
weather recurs, as it is pretty sure to
do at this season, the heavier clothing
becomes burdensome and is apt to be
thrown aside for lighter apparel, with
the result that under the next sudden
change a bad cold is contracted.
The local registrar stated yesterday
that some physicians do not adhere
strictly to the law requiring theru to
report all cases of contagious and in
fectious diseases. He thinks that in
time the law will be more strictly ob
served and much better results will
follow. Health Commissioner Dr.
Dixon,he said, is determined that the
statute shall not be a dead letter. He
is after those doctors who are neglig
ent in the premises, and in at least
one instance has caused legal proceed
ings to be instituted against the phy
sician who failed to report contagious
and infectious diseases.

HOME HORNED
NEAR EXCHANGE
The fine residence on the farm of
August Heidenreich, 3 miles uorth
east of Exchange, was burned to the
ground Friday evening, the home and
nearly all of the contents being a to
tal loss. The Ueidenreich home was a
frame dwelling,large aud roomy. The
lire is attributed to a defect in the
chimnev which,like the house was old
fashioned.
The family were all iu the kitohen,
where Mrs. Heidenreich was baking
bread. The fire started in the attic,
and had gained a big headway when
the family learned of the danger. To
tally unconscious that the upper part
of their home was iu flames the Heid
eureichs sat in the kitchen,until their
telephone bell rang furiously and the
voice of a neighbor told them that
their house was on fire.
Already the whole upper part of the
dwelling was wrapped in flames and
the unfortunate family could do but
little toward saving any of their prop
erty. A piano was practically the only
article saved.
The wind was blowing in the direc
tion of the large barn ou the farm but
the heroic efforts of the neighbors pre
vented the flames from spreading. Mr.
Heidenreich estimates his IOSB at over
SB,OOO. He carried i4OO insurance.

HUNTING DEER
AND MOOSE
li - ?tu A. Snyder, proprietor of the
City Hotel, Thursday night returned
home from a hunting trip in Maine,
bringing with him a, trophies of lus
marksmanship two of the finest deer
ever seen in Danville.
Mr. Sndyer is one of the most enthu
siastic and, it might be added, one of
the most successful hunters of this
section. He always goes after big
game and for years past each fall has
spent a couple of weeks iu that para
dise for hunters, the Maine woods.
Iu company with H. A. Albright of
Orwigsburg, who for years past has
been hiß companion on these hunting
trips, Mi. Snyder left Danville on
Monday October 21st. The two men
joined the hunting camp at Cedar
Lake, seventy-four miles north of
Bangor. Mr. Snyder says it is no
trick for a man to shoot deer in that
country—provided he can shoot at all.
Pheasants, rabbits and all forms of
smaller game are simply ignored.
Deer aud moose are the gamo that are
sought by the hunters who make the
long journey north.
Mr. Snyder saw seven deer in a
drove coming down the mountain.
The sight, he asid.was one worth go
ing all the way to Maine to behold.
The deer passod quite near him and
he succeeded in shooting one. The
next day he shot another deer, the two
forming the limit that one hunter
may shoot in a season in Maine. Mr.
Snyder hoped to obtaiu a moose. He
saw a fine specimen, a female, but it
is illegal to shoot a cow moose in
Maine and there is a penalty of five
hundred dollars attached. Only one
bull moose may be shot by a hunter
in one season. Mr. Snyder was not
fortunate enough to run across a male.
The two deer —a buck aud a doe—
shot by] Mr. Snyder might have been
Been in John Eisenhart's meat market
yesterday. They were beautiful speci
mens, weighing respectively, dressed,
113 and 120 pounds. Undressed their
weight was estimated at 140 and 160
pounds, resjiectively.
No one would think of hunting in
that section of Maine without a guide
and even thns aided it is quite a com
mon thing for hunters to get lost, in
which event they are rarely ever
