THE LATE HERBERT
CLIFTON MOYER
The following obituary of the late j
Herbert Clifton Moyer appeared in the j
Coatesville "Daily Union," of Fri- i
day. The kind words very beautiful- j
ly echo the tender sentiments that
abide in the hearts of Herbert's friends
in Danville. The article states.
Herbert Clifton Moyer departed this
life at 5 o'clock this morning at 271
East Chestnut street, in the 35th year !
of his age. He was born in Danville, I
Pa., on March 3, 1873, his parents be- j
ing William H. and Minnie A. Moyer. '
At the age of 18 he graduated from J
the Danvilli high school. He came to j
Coatesville about 15 years ago and en- j
tered the employ of the Lukens Iron
and Steel company as a draftsman.
By close attention to business and
hard study he made himself a parti
cularly useful man to his employers
and about 8 years ago was advanced to
the important position of master
mechanic of all the steel plants and
mills of the Lukens company and fill
ed that position with credit to himself
and profit to those who liafl entrusted
him with the responsibility of looking j
after their machinery.
But in the midst of his success when
the future looked very rosy and attrac- I
tive to him aud hops beat high iu his !
manly heart, sickness seized him, and
for the past seven months he has been i
a great sufferer, the extent of which J
only those who watched by his bedside j
have any conception of. But he bore j
it bravely and patiently.
For the past teu years he has made
his home with Misses Lizzie aud
Emuia Ford, to whom he was as a
brother. For the past three weeks Ills
father has been by his bedside, who
was joined this week by his mother.
The deceased seemed to be a great
favorite with all who had the slight
est acquaintance with him. as well as
of those close to his life,and when the
word went out that he had been call
ed from his life, expressions of real
regret were to be board on every
hand.
He was uuited iu marriage to Miss
Libbie Roth, of Danville, about 12
years ago, who died three years later,
leaving an 11 month old daughter
Evelyn, who resides in Danville with
her grandmother Roth. His parents j
and a younger brother Leroy also sur- |
vive him.
Several years ago he united with the j
Danville Lutherau church. He was j
also a member of the Masonic Lodge
of Rome, N. i\, and the Royal Arc
anum of Coatesville.
Kept Wedding Long A Secret.
Friends of Charles E. Mericle and
Miss Zella S. Thomas, both of Jersey
town, were agreeably surprised on
Tuesday to learn that they had been
wedded last May. So well did they
keep their secret,howevet, that not an
inkling of it did any one get until the j
bride's mother happened to read a let
ter from the bridegroom to the bride, !
which had been iu a thoughtless mo
ment let lie ou the sitting room table j
ot her home. In this he called her his |
wife.
The ceremony was performed at
Pottsvilie on May 18th, 1907. by Rev. \
Dreisbach. The young couple had gone
there to spend the day, aud while in
the city they decided to get married, j
Then they kept it a secret intending j
to do so until next spring when they j
thought they would tell of it and go |
to housekeeping.
The bride is a daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. D. R. Thomas, and the bride- j
groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Wil- j
liam Mericle. Their many friends !
wish them a happy and prosperous
journey o'er life's stormy seas.

A very pleasant party was held at
the home of Mrs. Mary Deusberger ou .
Saturday evening. The guests were
entertained with music and games.

FOHND DEAD
JN HIS BED
Stephen Girard Reefer, a resident of
this city, Saturday moruiug.was found
dead iu bed at the home of his-uon-in
law, Frauk Starr, a short distance be
low South Danville. The sudden death
led to complications, which have held
up the funeral arrangements aud made
it impossible to remove the body.
The deceased retired Friday night
iu his usnal health. On Saturday
morning when he failed to arise.Mrs.
Starr sent one of the children up stairs
to call him. The little one returned
explaining that "grandfather was
sleeping."
At 8 o'clock Mrs. Starr herself went
up stairs to call her father and found
him dead. At what time in the night
he expired is not known, but from all
appearances when discovered he had
been dead some six hours.
The sudden death was brought to
the notice of Justice of the Peace E.
W. Young, but upon investigation aud
learning the facts as above stated he
| decided that an inquest was not neces
j sary.
The family residence of the deceased
i is at 229 Mowrey street. Arrangements
. were at once made to bring the body
to town, but it was found that under
the circumstances a death certificate
j could not be issued, without which a
I permit for removal and burial can not
be granted.
The deceased in the past was afflict
ed with heart trouble and that disease
it is thought, was the cause of his J
death. But as death occurred without !
medical attendance anil there was no
inquest held it was difficult to get the
data required to make out a complete J
aud satisfactory certificate aud returu
of death. Under the circumstances it ,
was not possible to remove the body. |
The deceased was 66 years of age
aud beside his wife is survived by one
daughter, Mrs. Starr, aud five sous:
Charles, Abram, Jacob and Roy, of
this city and Wesley, of Sunbury.
Small Pox Nearby.
For the first time in several years j
small pox has broken out in Northum
berland county. The victim is a nine '
year old boy. John Smith,of Lavouia, |
a small town in Midvalley, near Mt. '
Carmel. Dr. Houston was called to at
tend the case Sunday, found it small
pox and notified Dr. Samnel Dixon of
the State board of health. Dr. Dixon \
in turn directed Dr. Harmon, of
Blooinsburg, to make a thorough ex- I
amination of the case He did so and j
confirmed the first diagnosis. The boy j
has been placed in strict quarantine.
The Man Who Didn't Vote.
Iu some after-election reflections the
Chester Times refers to the responsi- j
bilitv of the men who did not vote by
saying: "We may talk about this form ;
of municipal government,or the other;
but the method will amount to noth- i
ing so long as the individual does not I
exercise greater interest in his civil j
duties. It is the man who don't vote j
who is responsible for a large part of \
our ills. He holds the balance of pow- \
er,but only when he is stirred by some j
overt act of officers of the government
does he seem to realize that he is
charged with the duty of transacting
public business. •'

Wrote Popular Hymns.
Mrs. Katharine E. Purvis, who died
iu Williamsport a few (lays ago, wrote
a number of hymns, all of which were
set to music by Professor J. M. Black
of that city. Two hymns in particular
were exceedingly popular. They are
"When the Saints Are Marching" aud
'Walk Beside Me." These two hymns
were issued in seventy-five hymn books
aud printed more than 5,000,000 times.
They were used extensively by Moody
and Sankey. Others of her hymns have
, been published from coast to coast in
almost every hymn book used in the
Methodist church aud in many other
j denominations. The two hymns men
tioned above were suug at the funeral
of the deceased on Friday afternoon.
Time for Thanks.
Adverting to the time set for our
anuual national Thanksgiving Day,
the Snnbury Daily Item aptly says:
"It's a good thing that Thauksgiving
Day follows the usual conflict among
the electors of the commonwealth.
Everybody reels thankful when these
contests are over and we are permitted
to resume our routine of life."
DEVELOPMENTS
I CHURCH WAR
Tim war in the Lutheran church at
Trevorton which was spoken of some
days ago in this paper goes merrily on.
Developments are following each oth
er in rapid succession; the people are
becoming more and more interested,
and the pastor, in whom the whole
trouble centers, remains obdurate,
dinging to his post as a drowning
man to a raft, spite the fact that he
has been told time and time again
that his presence is no longer desired.
The congregation has dwindled
down to four now. This quartette of
loyal Christians attends church every
Sunday and listens with profound at
tention to the Word as expounded by
the divine.
The text of the mandate of the
synod,received by the Rev. Heyer sev
eral days ago, is something like this:
"We adviße Rev. Heyer to resign as
pastor of the church at once.as he can
do no good to the congregation under
the present circumstances." To an
ordinary mortal this would look like
J a request to move on,but to the learn
| ed clergyman it appears differently.so
j indications would tend to show.
The four loyal members tried to form
a church council last week, but inas
much as five are required for this body
! they found that a difficult task. To
- make matters worse one of the four
| remembered that ne was the church
| treasurer and therefore could not serve
on the council. That left the numbor
| at three, and by and by one of these
' became afflicted with chills in the
lower extremities,and behold the num
ber was two.
j Realizing that they could get none
of their own church members to join
j rlie council, the two branched out in
search of converts. Finding three
members of other churches, they im
pressed upon them the mighty dignity
connected with being on the council j
and succeeded in inducing the trio to j
enlist their servises.
Then it was that the loyal support- |
ers of the pastor the people don't want '
felt happy. Their plans had readied |
a successful culmination. Now they
would be able to do as they liked iu ,
the church. But a storm was brewing
and it soon broke. Hearing of their
parishioners' action, the preachers of
the other churches becamo busy, and ;
iu less time than it takes to tell it the
council again numbered two.
At the last report the church body
still contained the number stated and
Rev. Heyer was preparing a sermon
for three.

Dutch Dish Qalns Favor.
Sauer Kraut, a distinctively Ger
man dish, long tabooed by people of
other nationalities is rapidly growing
in favor throughout the State,even in
the most exclusive sections. The West
Chester Local News says, that even in
West Chester, which claims to be the
Athens of this State: "Seekers for
sauer kraut are met everywhere —lots
more than iu days a quarter
century back, when it was rude and
actually uncouth to eat sauer kraut
and peanuts. The cabbage yield pro
mises well—and BO the outlook for
filling the kraut silos to their brim is
a bright one. Germans know how to
make good Kraut. Americans think
they do, but tiiey are wide of the
mark. And so it is that the few Ger
man makers of the article in town are
being hunted up with a view to busi
ness during the winter months."

Foreigners Willing to Improve Town.
That the foreigners of West Berwiok
have their good as well as bad traits
has been demonstrated by the fact that
they try to assist the street gang and
the borough authorities in every man -
uer*poßsil>le. In many cases where the
streets have been cut down or the gut
ters opened, these men have done >1
the loading of the dirt without any
expense to the borough.
They lower or raise houseß without
the least complaint and assist Street
Commissioner Stevens where every
they can. The ofHoials declare that
they are more willing to improve the
borough than many of the Americans.
In this respect they prove good citi
zens.
A PROMISING
CAREER CUT SHORT
Our readers will be paiued to learn
of the death of Herbert C. Moyer, a
former resident of this city, which
took place at Goatesville Friday
morning.
The deceased was the son of Mr. and
Mrs. William H. Moyer, of No. 818
East Market street. For some eight
years past he was a resident of Coates
ville, where he held the position of
maßter mechanic at the Lukeus Iron
and Steel company's works. His illness
covered a period of some six mouths.
Death was caused by internal abscesses
aud his sufferings were most intense
during the entire period of illness.
The end came at 5 o'clock Friday

months and 5 days. He was a widow
er and besides his parents is survived

Herbert C. Moyer grew to mauhood
in Danville. He was a young mau of
exemplary character, of studious habits I
and especially gifted in intellect. He j
was wholly selfmade and due to close j
application and a sheer determination I

Murderers Ask for New Trials.
The attorneys for Henry Fisher and ,
Staney Marcavitch.the murderers who
were convicted at the recent term of
the Northumberland county court, I
have filed reasons for new trial for
their respective clients.
Welch & Welch have not filed all
thsir reasons as yet because they just
received their transcribed testimony.
They claim that Fisher's letters to his
wife, in which he incriminated him
self, and to which his conviction was
largely due, should not l>eeu been ad- \
mitted in evidence against him be
cause they were confidential communi
cations between man and wife. They
claim that lie should have been dis
charged because the law commands
that no prisoner shall be held without
trial after two terms have elapsed
since his incarceration. Their other
reasons w ill be filed after further study
of the testimony.
Attorneys Huth and McDevitt for
Marcavitch have also filed reasons,
showing wherein the court erred in
its findings during the trial.
Marcavitch was convicted of murd
ering Charley Vesalonius, a Spring
field cobbler, by driving a hatchet in
to his brain. He attempted to implic
ate a companion named "Pimple
Face" Joe. but the evidence failed to
bear out his statements, although Joe
in his attempts to free himself from
suspicion lied so profusely on the wit
ness stand that his testimony counted
for nothing.

introduced himself as the representa
tive of a big Philadelphia optical
house aud tried to sell her a pair ot

pay so much but he finally agreed to
take |9. The woman agreed to take |
them at this figure aud handed him
two five dollar bills He talked to her 1
about her eyes aud wrote out a pre
scription aud finally got her mind off
the oue dollar change, that as coming
to her and bowed himself out of the

of the whole transaction. When her
son came home to supper she related
tho fact' 3to him aud told him the fel
low said he had beeu stopping at the

A "WINDFALL"
_FOR_ FARMERS
Due to the shipping of apples from
South Danville, inaugurated the pres
ent fall, the farmers of this vicinity
are realizing an enlarged source of rev
enue from their apple crop, which
surpasses anything dreamed of in the
past. Up to Friday twenty car
loads of apples had beeu shipped from
Sooth Danville, comprising in the ag
gregate at least 18,000 bnshels. Nearly
all these were picked apples, which
command a price of fifty cents per
bushel. It will be readily seen,there
fore,that the portion of the apple crop
shipped over the Peunsy has netted the
farmers of this immediate vicinity
many thousands of dollars.
The apples shipped from South Dan
ville were weighed on the scales of J.
H. Kase's store. Up to Friday noon
290 wagon,loads had beeu weighed and
they were still coming in at the rate
of two or three per hour. These ap
ples, Mr. Kase says, were all weighed
during the last two weeks. Incident
ally, it has been learned that there are
thousands of bushels of apples still on
the trees or lying on the ground where
they.'have dropped, within a radius of
a few miles of South Danville. Miles
Reed of near Boyd's station has gath
ered a crop of 1200 bushels, the most
of which he shipped over the Pennsy.
It is Bomewhat surprising to learn
that in spite of the cold spring with
its late frosts the apple crop in thiß
section is one of the largest in many
years. But for tho lucky circumstance
that a purchasing agent happened to
turn up here the thousands of bushels
purchased and being sent to other
parts would in great part have gone
to waste and the farmers would be out
of pocket the snug sum now being
realized from shipping.
A farmer who brought a load of ap
ples in from the vicinity of Rushtowu
Friday stated tiiat between Danville
and liis farm thousands of bushels of
choice apples are lying under the trees
aud going to waste. On his own farm
thero are still hundreds of bushels of
apples ou tho trees. Owing to the
scarcity of help and the pressure of
other farm work he has little hopes of
being able to gather more than a small
portion of his apple crop. A continua
tion of the present kind of weather
for a week or more would enable the
farmers to turn thousands of bushels
of apples into money ; but should freez
ing set in, which is likely to happen
at any time, all the apples not yet
gathered would be a total loss.
The present is the first that apple>
have been shipped,at least in a whole
sale way, from South Danville. As a
resident of the south side remarked
Friday it has proven "a windfall"
to the farmers ot this vicinity and has
opened their eyes as to the true value
of an orchard.
You can't be well if you have a weak,
unhealthy, tired out stomach. Neither
can you feel good if by some little ir
regularity in eating you have caused
the stomach to get out of order. These
little stomach troubles are signs of in
digestion, which may aud very often
does turn into a very bad case of dys
pepsia. Don't allow this togo on a
siugle day without doing something
to overcome it. Take some good reli
able aud safe digestant like KODOL
For Dyspepsia. KODOL is the best
remedy known today for li6art burn,

Reading's Dilemma.
The city of Reading, whose water
supply is not as pure, clear and spark
ling as Danville's superior supply,has
at present additional woes, which are
briefly told by the Pottsville Evening
Chronicle iu these words: "Poor
Reading; she's catching it at both
ends. The milk dealers have raised the
price of milk and the brewers have
announced an increase of fifty cents a
barrel on beer to retailers. Still no
one will believe any Readingite will
die of thirst."
Hunted With Ferrets.
Arrests of a number of hunters have

TWO DESERTED
WIVES APPEAR
Dauville seetns to be u favorite hid
ing place for refiaotory husbands with
uowly-fouud affinities. No less tliau
two deserted wives were iu this city
Friday looking up their faithless
spouses. Iu one case at least it is in
teresting to know that the woman
found her man.
Ic is a little difficult to get hold of
all tho facts, as the woniau with the
aid ol an attorney accomplished her
purpose aud left town as quietly as
she came.
Figuring iu the case was au astute
detective, who arrived iu this city
Wednesday night. Locating man
he wired the wife, who joined the
detective Thnrsday.
The recalcitrant hubby,with a Dan
ville girl to whom he was supposed to
be married, has beeu cutting a wide
swath for a year or more. It was a
rude awakeuing when the detective,
with the deserted wife, confronted
him and explained at length what all
he was up against.
The wife had him foul. She was in
a position to dictate terms and it was
his part wholly to comply. According
to the stories told there was a tragic !
proceeding behind closed doors in the
office of one of our attorneys, late
Thursday night, when the faithless
husband indue and legal form re
nounced his claim to property jointly
owned by himself aud wife aud vain- j
ed at seven thousand dollars.
Figuring in the proceedings as a !
"man of straw" was a youug profes
sional mau, to whom the property own

Murder Trial Was Postponed.
A formal motion was made by Dis
trict Attorney Cummings at court in
Sunbury Monday that the trial of
Mike Bednos for tho murder of Wal
lace Naradjac be postponed until the
; next term of court.
| The Commonwealth will have con-
I siderable difficulty iu proving Bednos'
' guilt because its principal witness,
Anthony Naradjac, the dead man's
brother, was beheaded by a Reading
; passenger train at Shamokin on Octo
i ber 16th.
| Bednos shot his victim through the
| head with a revolver he had bought
j shortly before. He claims that he did
l it accidentally; that he was merely
| showing the other man the weapon
when it exploded in his hand.
As the lips of the two men who
knew most about the crime are for
ever sealed the story of the accused
stands unchallenged except by the cir
cumstantial facts.
Bednos is held without bail at the
county prison. He was brought into
court when the case came up Monday
morning.

What To Do.
There is comfort ill the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled togo often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.

"ON THE OUTSIDE
LOOKING IN"
Harry Thomas, the Milton stone cot
ter, who has been in prison at Sun
bury for the past two weeks," was re
leased Monday. When he was brought
into the court room Judge Savige said
to hiui, "Well, Thomas, are you tired
of being in jail?"
"To tell the truth, judge," replied
the prisoner a little nervously, "I'd
rather be on the outside looking in
than on the inside locking out."
"I'll tell you what I'll do," said
the court,"l won't sentence yon but
every time you get intoxicated and
heat your wife you will be putin jail
for a week to start with and an extra
week for each additional offense."
Thomas was released on condition
that he pay the cost of the bench war
rant and give f!J a week to his wife.
In imposing these conditons on him
tiie court is trying to make a good
citizen out of him rather than punish
him for his offenses. When sober,
Thomas is a stone cutter whose equal
is hard to find.

and my eyesight was so impaired I
could scarcely see one of my family

of living, when a friend recommend
ed Foley's Kidney Cure. One 50 cent
bottle worked wonders and before I
had taken the third bottle the dropsy
had gone, as well as all other symp
toms of Bright's disease." Sold by all
