MRS. LOGY KESSLER
PASSES AWAY
Mrs. Lucy Kessler, au old auci wide
ly kuowu resident of Danville, depart
ed this life at 5 :80 o'clock on Satur
day morning after a brief illness of ,
pleuro-pueumonia.
Mrs. Kessler was in the T3rd year of
her age. She was born in Danville
and lived here during her entire life. ;
Her maiden name was Lucy Byerly; !
she was the daughter of Jacob Byerly,
one of the early settlers of this sec
tion. She was one of a family of four
teen children and is survived by the j
following brothers and sisters: Wil-j
liam and Lewis Byerly, of Danville;
John Byerly, of Philadelphia; Angus- !
tus Byerly, of Plymouth; Samuel
Byerly, of Shauiokin; Mrs. J. T. Ob
erdorf and Mrs. Sarah Byerly, of Dan- [
ville. The deceased was the widow of
Samuel Kessler and is survived by two
sons, John and Lewis Kessler, of this
oity, and four daughters: Mrs. G.
Fred Smith, Mrs. P. Scott, of Dan
ville; Mrs. Edward Stillwell, of Sliar- 1
on; and Mrs. Samuel Bousch, of Wil- ■
liam sport.
The deceased had been ill only ten
days. Although her case was regarded
as a serious one, yet strong hopes of
recovery were eutertained up to Fri
day morning, when grave symptoms
developed. Mrs. Kessler was a kind
hearted generous woman, who found
special pleasure and delight iu cheer
ing and helping others whose lines
had fallen iu the harsh and uneven
places of life. She will be greatly
missed not only by the immediate rela
tives but also by the community in
which she lived. She was a life-long
member of the Pine street Lutheran
church.
The deceased resided with her daugh
ter, Mrs, Scott, Upper Mulberry street.
It was there that her illness and death
occurred.

Typhoid Game from Spring.
A spring at the home of Joliu Hile,
near Snydertown, is thought to be re
sponsible for threo cases of typhoid
fever.
Gi'Ofer Hile and George Cook, son
and son-in-law of Mr. Cook aud H. H.
Hilr, the latter from Sunbury, are
down witli the dread malady and iu a
serious condition.
Dr. E. A. Smith, of Sunbury, is the
attending physician, and he is of the
opinion that the spring which fur
nishes water at the Hile farm caused
the outbreak. This belief is strength
ened by the fact that shortly after vis
iting his Snydertown relatives Mr. H.
H. Hile was stricken.
A sample of the infected water has
been sent to Harrisburg for analysis.
Other Snydertown residents who have
been iu the habit of securiug water
from the spring are apprehensive lest
the disease spread to tliem.

STRANGER PASSED
WORTHLESS CHECK
An impostor, who poses as a "State
cattle inspector," is at large among
the farmers of this county. The fel
low lias at least one fraudulent check
to answer for aud is evidently an all
around bad man.
Charles Diehl,who resides on a farm
on Montour ridge near Mooresburg is i
the person victimized. On the even
ing of April 17th a stranger with a
horse and buggy drove up to his door !
aud asked permission to remain all i
night. He explained that he had been I
at the hospital for the insane at Dan
ville for the purpose of inspecting cat
tle and told a plausible story of being '
misdirected, which brought him to the
Diehl farm. He did not wish to over
drive his horse, he said, aud he plead
ed so hard to be permitted to remain
that consent was finally obtained.
Although he made his business per- !
fectly clear yet he ottered no sugges
tion that would indicate that lie de
sired to inspect Mr. Diehl's herd.
Early the next morning he was ready
to leave. The farmer declined pay
ment for the night's lodging, but the j
strauger refused to leave without re
warding the farmer for his hospital
ity, explaining that he was in the
State's employ—that he was expected
to pay his way and would be reim
bursed.
Iu a business-like way the man fill
ed out a check on tho Blair County
National bank of Tyrone, for §1 50, j
made payable to C. 11. Diehl. The
cheek was signed by "A. J. Otto, M.
D' ' Below the signature was writ
ten : "State Board Agent."
On April 21st Mr. Diehl drove into
town aud all unsuspicious deposited
the check at one of our banks where
he has an accouut. Nothing more was
thought of the matter until Saturday
when the check, having been returned
to the bank in Tyrone ou which it was
drawn, came back to Danville with
tho words "Fraud —No accouut ' writ
ten across one corner.
Mr. Diehl being in town was appris
ed of the turn events had taken. A lit
tle inquiry sufficed to reveal that there
is no such au official as the stranger
had represented himself as being.
When the State authorizes the inspec
tion of cattle the regular veterinarian
employed by the dairyman i 9 chosen J
to act and he for the time being be
comes the representative of the live
stock sanitary board. Dr. Cawley, the
representative of the State, sent to the
hospital in connection with the recent
inspection, was an official acting iu
altogether nuotlier capacity.
The impostor informed Mr. Diehl
that he had condemned forty head of
cattle at the hospital,whereas the fact
is that hut twenty-six head were found
infected with tuberculcsis, the inspect
or being Veterinarian ,T O. Reed of
this city.
To what extent the man operated
throughout this aud adjoining coun
ties can not bo determined at present.
Mr. Diehl states that so far as he is
able to recall the fellow he was a short
thick-set man with sandy hair. The
only thing that impressed Mr. Diehl
oddly was the fact that lie carried
with him in the buggy two kits of
tools, which included.to use the farm
ers' words, a couple of "short crow
bars," also a quantity of clothing,
suits of different kinds, aud a variety
of photographs.
Altogether there is a great deal of
mystery about the affair, and we shall
probably hear more of the man. Since
he does not scruple to deal in trnudul
ut checks.in his travels up and down
the country, he evidently now and
then finds an opportunity to realize
much more heavily than he did iu the
case of Mr. Diehl.

Tragic Death at MiltoD,
While acting as brakeman on the
special Odd Fellows' train at Milton
Tuesday morning. George Keiser, a
son of Reading car inspector, Frank
Keiser, of that place, met a horrible
daeth while iu the act of coupling.
While the train was waiting for the
excursionists it had been cut at Broad
way and also at Walnut street. In
making the coupling the unfortunate
young man got under the cars. It is
supposed that he thought his head was
below the bumpers, but if that was
his idea he had made a fearful mis
calculation, and one that cost him his
life. When the bumpers came togeth
er they caught the upper portion of
his head, cutting it off as though it
had been done by an axe. and scatter
ing his brains over the track. Death,
of course, was instantaneous.
The deceased was a young man about
twenty-one, with a promising future.
He was well known and very popular
with the Reading trainmen and it was
his ambition to work his way ap in
the company' services.
AN AIR SUP
COMING THIS WAY
Does Danville wish to secure a visit
from an airship—not an ordinary bal
loon of the old type, the fport of ad- !
verse winds, nui a ciingiote air snip, ,
the latgest in the United States, by
the way, which proposes to come this
way In the near future?
Burgess Rogers has received a com
munication from the promoters of the
novel enterprise. In the first place
Charles Oliver Jones of Hammonds
port, N. Y., has perfected the largest
air ship in the United States and to
prove the practicability of this type of
aerial croft and its adaptability for
military, courier and other service has
decided to personally undertake the
most hazardous journey known to the
scientific world, which is nothing less
than a record-breaking trip encircling
the United States
The immense gas bag is cylindrical
in centre and conical at both ends. Its
length over all is 95 feet. The propel
ler turns at rate of 1,600 revolutions
per minute and is coupled direct to an
eight cylinder, air cooled, 30 horse
power engine.
Mr. Jones' airship, which is called
the ' Boomerang," will travel at the !
rate of thirty miles per hour and will
carry passengers. The inventor will
with liis'air ship undertake the long
est tour of record, making the entire
loop of the United States; he will fly
from city to city, making stops en
route and giving demonstrations and
exhibitions.
The promoters think Danville ought
to esteem it as a markjof especial hon
or that this the first touring airship
of the world is willing to make a stop
here—for a consideration. It has been
arranged to make stops wherever de
sired over the route,and several differ
ent propositions are presented explain- |
ing under what conditions the air ship
will consent to stop. Two hundred
dollars will secure a stay of one hour
in some park or amusement resort. |
Longer stays cost more in proportion
The visit of the air ship will prove a
great object lesson and the promoters
point out that with proper enterprise
aiul advertising the occasion can be
made to yield handsome profits to all
concerned. They are now looking for
a good live man of integrity and en
terprise in this community to arrange
for the event..

the assessors must make their returns
of voters and school children : and the
same will be sent out to the assessors

were also received upon which the

sisting of personal property, real
i estate, horses, dogs, vehicles money
at interest and other taxable property.
This return is made aunually and will
be completed shortly. The State ap
propriation to the public schools is
based upon the number of scholars in
each district and for this reason it is
quite important that the assessor
! make a return of the exact number of
children that were in school.as shown

in the middle of the street. As the
horse dasiied forward one of the cart
wheels ran up on the slanting plank.
Just at this moment Mr. Gardner had
placed his foot upon the steps and was
prepared to mount the cart. The jolt
as the cart struck the plank, caused

rapid pace leaving Mr. Gardner lying ;
in tho street. As soon as the man was i
able he made his way to the oftiee of
Dr. Harpel, where his injuries were I

insert several stitches. On his left arm
and ou the region of the hips there ,
were painful abrasions covering many

dragged or scraped by the sharp tire

State Forest Preservation.
Referring to the work of forest pre" .
servation iu our state, the Franklin
News says"This State now owns 850,- j
000 acres of forest laud,most of it very ]
low-priced land, but likely to bear
timber again some day. Fifty-four
thousand acres have been bought with
in the last month. Tiius large areas of
free laud will be secured for the use
of the public and the chances are that
it will for the most part be left to i
nature, so that the custom of making
an artificial appearance in the woods
by trimming and clearing things up,
as private owners are prone to do, will
not spoil all the wildwood in the
Commonwealth. As a reserver of game,
a protector of water supplies and a
conservor of the timber supply the
forestry department is a good thing
and ought to be encouraged. Some
time the state will get large sums for
wood and lumber from its lauds, as
Germany and other countries do now.

Wealth Depends on Workers.
In an excellent article concerning
farmers and mechanics the York Gaz
ette very aptly says : "The more skill
ful and industrious these classes are,
the more wealth will he accumulated
in any community; but farmers and
mechanics do not always consider
these things from the proper view
point. Too many of them are accus
tomed to think of themselves as mere
plodders and servants, in the increase
of wealth. There is a false standard
of respectability, in some communi
ties; a disposition, ou the part of si>-
riety,so-called, to look upoj the farm
er and the mechanic, as mere 'hewers
of wood and drawers of water' but
they are themselves to blame for tin's,
because they tacitly accept it."
