Miller, Gen'l Mauagsr YOUNG WOMAN FRACTURES LIB Miss Rella Davis, who resides on Green street, this city, is confined at the home of Charles Diehl, Bald Top, with a broken limb sustained in a playful tussle with the household. " The accident occurred} a Jcouple of days ago. Miss Davis, who is a dress maker, was spending a few days at the Diehl farm assisting the women folk at their fall sewing. After the day's work by way of relaxation Miss Davis playfully seized one of the other girls and in a short time a very lively tussle was on. Unfortunately, how ever, when the fun was at the height one of the farmer's daughters accid entally trod upon the ankle of Miss Davis' right foot, fracturing the bone near the joint. Dr. Paules of this city was called, who set the broken bone. Miss Davis is doing quite well under the circum stances, but up to Monday could not be removed and it did not seem un likely that she might have to spend Thanksgiving in the country. Sudden Death of Well-Known Man. Emanuel S. Persing, a well-known farmer, who lived one mile west of Elysburg,' died suddenly Monday morning. The deceased was in his usual health up to the moment of his demise. On Saturday lie was in Williamsport at tending a wedding. On his way home he stopped at AUenwood to visit his son, Dr. A. V. Persing, where he put in the greater part of Sunday. He reached his home near Elysburg Sun day evening. He was perfectly well when he arose Monday morning and eujoyed his breakfast with the rest of the family. About 9 o'clock he lay down on a couch. His daughter, who was in the room heard an unusual sound in the direction where he lay and hastening to his side found that he had expired. A physiciau was called, who assigned an attack of neuralgia of the heart as the cause of death. The deceased was sixty-four years of age Ho is survived by his widow, who before marriage was Catherine Vastiue, one sou. Dr. Persing, of Al len wood, aud one daughter Mrs. E.

Judging from the lurid description of happenings that seemingly make up the every day events of life about Hazleton the man or woman must he blessed with stout nerves who ven tures very far from home after night in that part of the coal region. Fol lowing is ttie latest thing that hap pened as related by the realistic re porter of the "Hazleton Sentinel." "While the pleasure seekers were returning to Shenandoah from Wood land Park pavilion last night a num ber of foreigners boarded the electric car at Lost Creek, one insulting a prominent young woman. Her escort resented the insult and a free fight en sued. The foreigners were armed and used pistols, knives and billies, driv ing many passengers off the oar. Wo men fainted and children soreamed in terror. When the smoke of battle clear ed away a dozen men were found bad ly injured and half a dozen women and three children were cut and bruis ed from flying glass. A number of allots were fired but fortunately none toak effeot. Nearly every window and seat in the car was broken. Ijuke Dowling, the young woman's escort, was probably fatally stabbed. The ring leaders of the foreigners were arrested today." FILTER BEDS _ STERILIZED In view of the disquietude existing caused by typhoid fever the water commissiouers have sterilized the tubs at the filter plant. The work was com pleted Saturday. The process of sterilizing occupies a great deal of time aud adds consider ably to the work devolving ou the crew at the water works. Neither of the tubs can be completed in less than 24 hours' time. The method pursued is as follows: After draining the water oat of each tub one hundred pounds of caustic soda are dumped on the saml compos ing the filter bed. Onto to this mass steam under 80 to 90 pounds pressure is turned aud the process of boiling is kept up for a day and a night. As might be inferred the cleansing is most complete and it would indeed,be miraculous if a single microbe surviv ed in the filter beds. In addition to sterilizing the tubs, the water com missioners for some time past have been using just double the quantity of alum to insure the best possible re sults in filtration. In order to determine beyond a doubt whether or not the water as filtered contains auy typhoid or other bacilli the water commissiouers pro pose to send away samples of wator covering several days in succession to be analyzed by the State. When an alyzed in the past on every occasion our hydrant water was pronounced free from bacteria and the borough authorities were complimented on the purity of the water supply. The com missioners feel confident that the ver dict on the present occasion will be the same. The board of water commissiouers will be generally commended for the precautionary measures that they have adopted. A doty now devolves upon council. As one of the water com missioners remarked Saturday, the borough fathers at once should proce ed to clean up the river bank above the water works. Not only are drains permitted at different points, but ashes, garbage and offals of various kinds are dumped over the river bauk in close proximity of the water works. Thus not only is the river bank ren dered unsightly but conditions are brought about unfavorable for main taining the purity of our water sup ply. WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO. Their Unceasing Work'lKeeps Us StroDg and Healthy. All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every three iniuates. The kidneys filter the blood, j They work night and dav. When I healthy they remove about 500 grains of impure matter daily, when un -1 healthy some part of this impure mat ! ter is left in the blood. This brings ! on many diseases and symptoms—pain jin the back, headache, nervousness, | hot dry skin, rheumatism, gout gravel, disorders of the eyesight and hearing, I dizziness, irregular heart, debility, I drowsiness, dropsy, deposits in the ! urine, etc. But if you keep the filters right you will have no trouble with your kidneys. Augustus Hiiwn, 372 Second street, Huntingdon, Pa , as.vs: "It was about three years ago that my kidneys first began to give me trouble. The disease grew on me gradually and constantly became worse until it reached a stage or severity that when I got up in the morning sharp stinging pains would catch me in the back and the action of the kidneys became very regular and there was a hot burning spnsation during passage of the secretions. I tried all kinds of medicine but noth ing seemed to do me any good. At last I decided to try Doan's Kidney Pills and found such prompt and un expected relief that I feel warranted in recommending this remedy to other sufferers." For sate by all dealers.

His first shot killed a fine rabbit. As lie was picking up the animal aud congratulating himself up on his success, the owner of the field appeared on the scene and said: "Let me see it." Swanger handed the rab bit over for inspection aud nearly fainted when he hoard the farmer say: "Much obliged, I didn't know there were such fino rabbits on my farm. Please shoot me another one. My family is largo and I need two." Whan Swanger recovered from the shock the farmer and the rabbit disap peared.

ATTACKED BY SAVAGE HOG V George Mourer of Grovania is suf fering from tlie effects of a very ser ious injury inflicted by one of his hogs. Mr. Mourer has among his swine a male, which is of very ugly disposi tion and is apt to cause a great deal of trouble about the hog pens. One of his tricks is to root [he trough away from its moorings so that at feeding time it is no unusual thing to find the trough lying upside down in the mid dle of the pen. Such was the condition of things about 5:80 o'clock last Friday morn ing when Mr. Monrer proceeded to feed his hogs. Before pouring in the swill the man climbed over the rail ing into the pen to place the trough into position. The troublesome hog is a ferocious looking fellow with long tusks pro truding from his mouth. No sooner had Mr. Mourer stepped into the pen than the animal with all the ferocity of a wild boar sprang upon the man. Mr. Mourer attempted to escape, but before he could get out of the way the hog, snapping like a dog, caught him by the right hand, sinking his crue tusks £,iuto • the palm, lacerat ing the member in a most shocking manner. The hog's tusk cut clear through the palm above the little Ang er laying the bone of the hand bare. Mr. Mourer got on board of one of the trolley cars, which just then came along aud went to Bloomsburg, where he received surgical treatment.

His sudden death following so closely the demise of Mr. Boyer, who was an uncle to Mrs. Smith, has cast heavy gloom over the circle of relatives.

When Mr. Smith the fun eral here on Thursday he was in his usnal health and spirits. There was clearly nothing to foreshadow the fact tiiat even then he was standing ou the verge of earthly being with only a few more hours of life before him.

Parents Must Look After Children. The remarks of Judge Hart, of Ly coming county, in placing several lads who had transgressed the law in the custody of their parents, with the ad monition to watch over their conduct or he would send the boys to the house of refuge,should open the eyes of these and other parents to their responsibil ities. There are many parents in this city who have been allowing their small children to do as they please, and the result is that these children liavo become habitual street walkers and corners loafers. The parent who does not care wheth er or not his sous and daughters shall be sent to the house of refuge will not make any effort to control his chil dren but will allow them to be upon the streets at all hours of the night, associating with older boys aud girls who are always ready to engage ill vicious practice. If some of the boys aud girls shall bo sent to the house of refuge their parents can blame them selves for their children's downfall. Home discipline is much to be pre ferred to imprisonment in the training of children. The New Pure Pood and Drug; Law.

It will be located on what is known as the Waller tract just west of the "Twin Hills," embracing the fine grove north of the trolley track,plain ly in view over the brow of the hill from the cars as they pass backward and forward. It is one of the finest groves in this section,made up of Btately trees whose thick branches interlock overhead, guarauteeiug an abundance of deep re freshing shade. The traot contains some eighteen acres with a slope north ward aud eastward. It has been leas ed by the trolley company for a period of twenty years. The park when completed will be a marvel to the people of this section. Everything will be oil a grand and elaborate scale and as a resort it will attract pleasure seekers for many miles around. The pavilion will be a grand affair, 130 by 90 feet. Among other modern features will be a carousal, surpassing in its size and appointments anything of its kind to be found hereabout. There will also be a "coaster" con taiuing three tiers, the cars making three rounds on each trip. Connected with the pavilion there will be a large restaurant. There will be tables aud kitchen for private pic nics,also a pnviliou for private picnic parties.

INDEX BOARDS ARE NEEDED It is said that prosecutions may be brought for neglsct to have proper road signs up in the townships of the county, as the supervisors ait) making themselves liable to punishment for not enforcing ttie sign board law a embodied in au ant of the State legis lature. In a drive about the country and up -011 observation it will be fouud that comparatively few sigu boards, point ing out the way and the number of miles to certain towns or villages, are in the proper shape. The matter has been a subject for talk on the part of autoruobilists and drivers of vehicles in general who have occasion to use the county roads. Concerning the placement of sign boards in conspicuous placos upon the public roads of the respective town ships of the county,an act of the State legislature in 1836 says the following: The supervisors aforesaid shall cause posts to be erected at the intersection of all public roads within their respec tive townships (where trees are not convenient) with boards firmly fixed thereon and indexed hoards pointing to the direction fof such roads, on which boards shall be inscribed in large and legible characters the name of the town, village or place where such roads may lead, and the distance thereto computed in miles. If any supervisor shall, after ten days' personal notice,negleot or refuse to put up or keep in repair index boards as aforesaid such supervisor shall for every such olfence'.foreit and pay a sum not exceeding ten dollars. Upon investigation it has been found that it is the duty of the constable of the township to report to the supervis or of his district of sign boards which are in bad condition, or of places which are in need of^boards. Besides being a matter of law, sign boards at the various crossroads of the county are also a matter of pride. Great pride is taken by most counties in having the index boards well ar- J ranged about the townships, and it is to be regretted that strangers are com pelled to drive through our home coun ty at a loss to know where or near what towns they are traveling. Not only to strangers would the sigu boards be a great convenience, but to Montour countians themselves, who are not well acquainted with the land it would be greatly appreciated.

He was about fifty-five years of age and is survived by a wife, a grown-up son and two daughters. He was widely known and esteemed. Uncle Tom's Cabin. !
