Ml lit".', Itcvi'.'l M iziaffir NEW ONIT IN COIIISSION Tiie now unit at the municipal light plant went into commission Saturday night. An improvement of the light was one of tiie things not ligured on, as the light always lias been of tiie very best. The new engine and dyn amo, therefore assumed their burden very unostentatiously, and compara tively few persons knew that the elec tricity illuminating tiie streets was being generated by the modern and expensive unit that for a mouth past lias been the centre of so much inter est at the light plant. The current was put on Saturday afternoon for the lirst time. As might have been expected of machinery so perfect the new unit carried its load admirably. Indeed, the engine and dynamo each ran like a piece of clock work. The unit was started up a couple of times during the afternoon by way of trial and after some read justment about the engine it wai left stand until (i:2O o'clock, when, with out any special ceremony, it assumed the burden of lighting the town. The new unit is a ponderous affair and.fully equipped for service, affords an object lesson to show the rapid pro gress made in the field of discovery and invention during a few years past. Very few people in Danville have over -eeu a unit that is just like it and dur ing Saturday quite a number of per sons dropped in at the wator works to sec the modern light plant. S. N. Castle, electrician, represent ing the Allis-Chaliners company, had charge of the unit the flrstjuight Ed ward F. Bell, the regular engiuoer, was also OJ duty. The borough is now supplied with two units. The engine and dynamo installed when the borough entered upon its own lighting and which has been very hard worked, will now be given a much needed rest and will be kept purely as a relay to bo used in case of accident to prevent the town from being left in darkness. -Messrs. lloffeditz and Castle the two exports who have been with us while the unit was being installed,will now take their departure. Both men, not only demonstrated their skill and abil ity as experts, but also the fact that they are (rue gentlemen with A finely developed social side to their natures. Naturally they made many friends who will remember them kindly tor a long time to come. WHY SO WEAK ? Kidney Troubles Hay be Stipping Your Life Away—Danville Peo- ! pie Have Learned This Fact.

RESIGNATION OF SECOND LIEDTENANT Captain F. M. Herriugtou lias re ceived a communication from the ad jutant general accepting the resigna tion of Frank N. Keefer, second lieut enant of Company F, 12th regiment, N. G. P. An election to choose a suc i cesaors will probably be held about May 7th. Second Lieutenant Keefer tendered his resignation a couple of weeks ago. A period of ten days will have to elapse between the sending out of notices and the date of election, which will afford ample time for tiie mem bers to cast about for a successor to Mr. Keefer. The places of the enlisted men who lost their membership in the company through non-attendance at drills have been tilled by new recruits, all of wltoiu are first-class men, combining all those qualities that goto make good soldiers. Vacanoie3 are continu ally occurring by reason of enlist ments expiring and other causes, and Captain Herrington says that the com pany can always find room for good men. Now that such earnest efforts are be ing put fortli to build up a company in Dauville it would be too badjif our citizens were to lose sight of the op portunity to obtain an armory. It is a fact that one of those stately $25,010 buildings is within reacli of Dauville. Other progressive towns have already got busy and there are none of tlietn that need an armory as bad); as Dau ville does. Each of the towns aro assured au armory,furnished a site as a gift from the municipality, and this seems to ba a condition that is necessary in every case, if tiie dream to procure au arm ory is to be realized anywhere in tho near future. Tiie first fctep tak'u by those towns that have succeeded was to appoint a committee to get into touch with tho armory board. Tiie next tiling was to enlist tho support of the most influent ial citizens of the town. Beyond this point, whore the municipality reveal ed enough enterprise to douato a site, everything seemed easy. Both Potts ville aud Williamsport, which are on the list of successful towns, furuishod a site for the armory free aud tli us se cured the whole sum, $25,000, for the building proper. The above embodies merely a few suggestions, which should ba of value at the present time if our citizens de sire to place Danville in liue for an armory. How's This ?

Swimey, an accredited repre sentative of the Business Association of Pennsylvania,circulated among the business men of Danville Friday in the interest of a movement to secure the repeal of the mercantile tax. By Friday afternoon nineteen] merch ants had been called npon, each of whom made a contribution to assist in carrying 011 the work. Mr. Swaney has canvassed Sunbury, Williamsport and other towns in this section of the State. Everywhere he says, he finds ready cooperation. The Business Association of Penn sylvania regards the mercantile tax as an unwarranted burden placed upon tlio shoulders of the merchants. Un der the terms of the act the board of mercantile appraisers is empowered to assess and appraise each and every business or commercial establishment according to an arbitrary rating. Previous attempts to repeal'the law met with defeat,'the objection urged against it being that it would deplete the treasury of the Commonwealth Mr. Swaney,the representative, points out that this argument 110 longer lias auy weigtit, as the revenues of the State are now over $9,000,000 in ex cess of the actual expenditures of the State government. It is the intention of the Business! Association of Pennsylvania to make an organized effort by endeavoring to have evtv business man in the State t'i .sign the petition to his member in the legislature to vote for and support this bill when it comes before that body. 111 order to meet the incidental expenses the merchants who become identified with the movement are ask ed by tlie association to contribute one dollar. The Business Association of Penn-1 sylvaniv, incorporated for the repeal of the mercantile tax, has its main office in the Weightman Building, 1524 Chestnut street, Philadelphia. A. J. Limeburner is president; C. W. Dick enshied, is vice president, and Robert Height, secretary and treasurer. It is i stated at the office that 3000 merch ants in Philadelphia and 600 in the i State have enrolled as members and signed a petition.to the legislature to repeal the mercantile tax law. Mr. Swaney on arriving here was surprised to find that the merchants of Danville are not organized, or, at least, have held no meetings for over a year. 111 practically every other town that lias the same standing as Danville he has found the merchants organized.
