Miller, Gea'l Manager BOROUGH SUP'T NOT ELECTED The borough school directors met in triennial convention Tuesday eve for the purpose of electing a borough sup erintendent. The session was a lengthy one, bat the board failed to come to an agreement and there was no elec tion. But one candidate was nominated— l D. N. Dieffeubacher, the present in cumbent, who has filled the position for the last seven months, since U. L. Gordy's resignation. It soon became apparent that the di rectors were not a unit as related to the candidate. After a lengthy discus sion, on motion of Mr. Fischer,it was ordered that the board proceed to vote on the candidacy of Mr. Dieffeubach er. A vote was taken with the following result: Yeas—Orth, Fish, Fischer, Foulk, Heiss, Cole. Nays—Pursel, Swarts, Bums, Seoli ler, Barber. Not voting—Redding. There were six yeas and five nays. Seven, the majority of the twelve mem bers of the board, were required to elect and the motion, therefore, was declared lost Tho board adjourned after arranging to meet in adjourned session at 9 o'clock on next Monday night for the purpose of electing a borough superin tendent. Deafness Cannot be Cured. by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear, There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restor ed to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases 'nut of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but au inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars i for any case of Deafness (caused by | catarrh) that cannot he cured by Hall's j Catarrh Cure Send for circulars free, i F.

'LUMBERMEN TRACK A BEAR R. N. Lyons, Elmer Lyons and Charles Keefer, lumberman in the em ploy of the Catawissa Paper Mill com pany, are (irmly convinced that the ridge between Dutch and Frosty val leys, only a few miles from Danville, is the habitat of a bear, one of tho biggest of its kind. Bruin was tracked in the soft ground Friday forenoon and he was only a short distance ahead of the men. Each of the party is a woods man of life-long experience and it is safe to affirm that he knows bear's tracks when lie sees them. The three men were walking down an old road used for hauling lumber on the north side of the ridge on the Dewald tract, when they encountered the bears' tracks. The latter seemed to come down from the bushes and followed the old road for some dist ance. The bear at one jilace walked through a mud puddle leaving in the soft ground his well-defined footprints. He was a monster, if his tracks be any criterion. Bruin had stepped out of the mud and water unto a big stone, which was still wet where the boar's foot had left its imprint,showing that tho animal had passed that way less than five minutes before the men came. The lumbermen state that there is a large tract of woodland in that local ity. which together with the old ore mines, affords au excellent home for bears. CURE YOUR KIDNEYS. Do Not Endanger Life When a Danville Citizen Shows You the Cure. Why will people continue to suffer the agonies of kidney complaint, back ache, urinary disorders, lameness, headaches, languor, |why allow them selves to become chronic invalids, ; when a certain cure is offered them? j Doau's Kidney Pills is the remedy to use, because it gives to the kidneys the help they need to perform their work. If jou have any, even one, of the symptoms of kidney diseases, cure yourself now, before diabetes, dropsy or Bright's disease sets in. Read this Danville testimony : 3fMrs. Edward Diehl, living at 310 Church street, Danville, Pa., says: "I used Dnan's Kidney Pills with ex cellent results and recommend them as a valuable kidney remedy. When 1 began using tliem I was suffering from severe pains through the smnll of my back and other evidences of disorered kidneys. I prooured Dnan's Kidney Pills at Hunt's drug store, and they effectively banished every symptom of my complaint. I give Doau's Kidney Pills my hearty endorsement." For salo by all dealers.

Names for Farmers' Homes, The Grange Mews says: A new grange ritual for use in the ceramoin al dedicaton of grange farmers' homes has been written by Mortimer White head, of New Jersey. It is not yet promulgated for general use but at tho next meeting of the national grange it is expected that the ritual will be ap proved and its use authorized. The idea is that grange farm houses should be named or the farm should be de signated by approrpiate title,as River view Farm.Brookside Home, Femcliff Farm, or any appropriate descriptive appellation. Brother Whitehead's idea is to make this formal dedication a noteworthy occasion. He assembles the local grange on the lawn iu the summer time, each officer occupying his allotted pisitiou. Surrouudiug them are the grange members and vis itors. On the porch the name of the house to he dedicated is concealed un til the moment for unveiling arrives, when it is revealed to the assemblage with due ceremony. The ritual is beautifully written and compares more than favorably with anything now in use by the grange. Chronic Constipation Cured.

Adverting to the reported destruc tion of this year's fruit crop, by tho recent freezing weather and the snow in some sections of this State, which as usual is an exaggeration of actual conditions, the Pittsburg Dispatch says:"lt is the presumption of those unfamiliar with fruit growing that every frost is fatal that gives currency to the stale joke about the frequent destruction of the peach crop. Peach trees bloomed iu unusual abundance this year.. They were subjected to light touches of frost while in full bloom and suffered no injury, at least ground. Iu some sections they showed no 3ign of harm yesterday. Yet the tiny fruit may liavo been so weakened that all will fall from the branches. Then, again, mauy peaches may goto maturity. It is so with oth er fruits. The ordinarily hardy apple was caught in open blossum—its most tender stage—but a few days will bo required to determine whether there will be no apples. A so-called "black frost" in May, 1891, precoded an autumn famed for its abundance of fruit of all kinds." DeWitt's Little Early Risers are small, safe,sure and gentle pills. Sold by Paules & Co. GIVES CUP FOR RELAY RACE| The plans for the amateur athletic meet to bo held at DeWitt's park on May 23rd, by the Y. M. O.

Physical Director Ainsworth yester day received a sample of the medals that are to be offered as prizes for the different events. The medal is mount ed as a watch fob and is the regula tiou Y. M. O. A. prize medal. This medal can not be purchased and can only be secured by being won at a Y. M. C. A. meet. Three of these medal —gold, silver aud bronze—will be giv en as prizes in each eveut.

Cawley, State meat inspector, ou Saturday performed an autopsy on ttiree valuable cows belonging to the ; herd of W. W. Gulick.Gearhart town ship which had been condemned by Veterinarian .T. O Reed as infected with tuberculosis. The result of the autopsy was to sustain Dr. Reed's iu- ; spection. Dr. Reed acting for the State ex- j amincd Mr. Gnlick's herd of nine cat- ! tie on April;loth, applying the tuber- [ culin test. Three out of the nine head ) yielded.by which it is understood that they exhibited symptoms of tubercu- 112 losis. The test was made by the vet erinarian at the expense of the owner with the understanding that the live j stock sanitary board was to assist him ■ iu disposing cf the cattle, should auy ! of them show symptoms of tubercu losis. The three head of condemned cattle were quarantined from the date of the ! inspection until last Saturday, when the autopsy was performed by Mr. Cawley.

MANY CASES OF PNEUMONIA Tlio effects of the sadden aud mark ed changes of weather that character ize the present season are apparent in the increased number of pneumonia cases shown by the report of the local registrar to the bureau of vital sta tistics for April. There are eleven cases of pneumonia on the list, which exceed the number reported in any one month before. Four of the eleven caßes proved fatal. The local registrar is of the opinion that in not a few instauces the pneu monia has resulted from exposure and the habit of laying aside winter un derclothing witli the advent of the first warm days, which experience has. shown is sure to be followed by cold weather before spring finally comes. Beyond pneumonia there were few cases of disease during April. The most serious was diphtheria, of which there were live cases There was only one case of typhoid fever. There was one case of chicken pox, two cases of mumps, and two cases of whooping cough. There were twenty-nine deaths dur ing the month, ten of which occurred at the hospital for the insane. The births for April are not as yet all reported to the local registrar. For March the number was twenty nine, which by a coincidence balances the deaths reported l'or April.

A MODERN COAL POCKET The machinery is being installed in j the modern coal pocket, which is be- \ ing erected by Robert J. Pegg between j the D, L. & W. railroad and North umberland street near Mahoning creek. L. H. Pierce, of Chicago, the erect ing engineer, is on the ground aud ex pects to remain until the pocket is ill operation, which, he states,will be in the course of ten days. The modern coal pocket differs from anything of its kind in this section. The plant is being furnished by the Howe Scale company of Illinois. Among the advantages claimed for the system is that it not only facilitates the handling of coal aud leads to a re markable saving of labor hue it also prevents breakage, which by any oth- : er method of handling coal, is a factor j worth taking into account, detracting as it does considerably from the value of coal. Breakage in this type of pock- j et, Mr. Pierce states, is from three to : five per cent less than when coal is \ shoveled off the car. In the case of a modern coal pocket j the coal is dumped from the car into j a hopper under the track and elevated from there into the pocket with an in- j clined Harrison conveyor operated by j a Howe gasolene engine. Distinguishing features of the mod- j eru coal pocket are the Sackett screen wagon spout and the screen and big ger with which it is equipped. By the process employed not a pound of coal t can leave the pockets without being ; thoroughly screened. It is here that ; the labor saving occurs quite as much as iu unloading the cars aud tilling the pookets By means of the screeu and bagger a ton of coal can be bagged iu one min ute By means of the screen wagon spout a wagon box cau be filled with I loose —thorough)}' screened—coal in a j few seconds of time. In either case j one man is all that is needed and about all that remains for him to do is to manipulate the levers opening and closing the pockets. There are twelve spouts in all. The modern coal pocket is a massive wooden structure and is quite a conspicuous object among the buildings iu the lower part of town, j Mr. John Riha of Vining, la., "says, "I have been selling DeWitt's Kid ney and Bladder Pills for about a year aud they give better; satisfaction tliau any pill I ever sold." Sold by Paules & Co. Bricklayers Are at Work. The hundred and odd men employed ou the new buildings at the hospital for the in>ane were obliged to quit work about JOitfO o'clock yesterday forenoon owing to the rain The nieu were loath to throw down their tools, hoping ratiier that the rain would prove to be only a shower: but at the hour above named there was no sign of abatement and the clothes of the workingmen were becoming uncom fortably wet. A decision to quit was accordingly arrived at. Work on the buildings has been hin dered very much by rainy weather aud the contractors naturally desire to put in as full time as possible. That au immense amount of work has been ac complished in spite of obstacles dur ing the month that the buildings havo been under way all must admit. The brick layers are now at work on the female infirmary Tin fifteen courses of buff brick, laid ou the wall of the kitchen wing harmonizes very nicely with the cut browu stone and no one can doubt that the effect of the combination will be most pleasing when the structure is completed. There are at present sixteen brick layers and twenty !-tone masous em ployed. A number of these men have beeii with Mosier aud Sommers for many years. Work is now under way on all tliree of the' buildings. The most of the stone masons are employ ed on the building for the acute insane ou the female side,while at the build- I ing for the acute insane malo patients, the excavation for which is complet ed, the workmen are laying the con crete foundation, ou which the walls will be built. Along with the airay of workmen seven teams are employed, the latter mostly hauling material from the cars to the site of the buildings. One can not help bur admire the system aud the discipline that characterizes the whole operation audit does not seem at ill improbable that the contractors will realize their expectations aud have the buildings under roof beiore wiuter.

James Lake, who conducts a repair shop ou Nortli Mill street, met with a serious accident Saturday afternoon while operating a lathe. He was in the act of throwing off the belt when his sleeve caught in the machinery, wlich drew his right arm uuder the clutch of the lathe. The man's forearm was shockingly mangl ed. an artery being severed. Mr. Lake received treatment at the office of Dr. P. C. Newbaker, who ligatured the severed artery. While the family of R. M. Allen, postmaster of Brimstone, Washing ton county, sat on the frout porch a few nights ago, a thief entered the chicken house and stole 'forty-seven thorough-bred game chickens, worth over one hundred dollars. Although corn planting time is at hand, several farmers in Lehigh coun ty were on Monday engaged at husk ing some of their last year's crop, an £nusual sight at this season. NUMBERING BOIES ON R. F. B. ROUTES | By a recent ruling of the post office | department tho boxes on the thousands j of rural routes in the United States ! are ordered to be numbered. The num ber is to be assigned by the post mast er to the box owners and this number must at once be legibly and durably inscribed by the owner in a conspicu ous place on the outside of the box. Notice to the abovo effect has been sent oat from the local post iftioe to box owuers on the several r. 112. d. routes leading from Danville. Accom panying the notice is the number as signed by the postmaster to be placed upon the box. The order is to be car ried out at the box owners earliest convenience. j An arrangement is made whereby 1 new boxes may be installed between those numbered consecutively with out leading to confusion or inconveni j euce. In case it should become neces sary to place boxes between two oth j ers, numbered say, 4 and 5 the new boxes would be "4 a," "4 b," and j 4 c." in succession. | No one seems to have any clear idea as to why the boxes are to be number ; ed—what purpose is to bo served.

CRAYON ARTIST AND CHALK TALKER ' The late Edwin Barret Smith, one of the board of managers of the Young Men's Christian Association, of Chic ago, speaks of the work of Mr. Little, who will appear in the Y. M. C. A. ' hall Saturday eveniug, as follows: Geo. Little, ented one of his popular lectures in | the regular lecture course of the Chio- j ago Young Men's Christian Associa- ! tion. "The entertainment was a delight ful one. and a large audience present (about two thousand) greatly enjoyed the evening. The rapidity and variety \ of lu's work keeps the audience con stantly on the alert for the many good points in which it abounds. Mr. Lit tle is a man of high character, pleas ing address and .extraordinary skill with the crayon. He has also recent ly appeared in the Armour Mission where he amused and instructed a large audience (over one thousand) containing many children and youth. His work seems to be equally well ap preciated by old and young. Every lecture course should include one of I his lectures." General admission to this lecture will be 25c. Children fourteen and under 10 cents. Tickets now on sale at the Y. M. C. A. and by members of the " Anchor Club." Ohurcb Door 3 Barred to Pastor. With the doors of the Lutheran church at Trevorton barred against him tho Rev Mr. Hever, who remain ed the unwelcome pastor for over a year awaiting the "divine call," will in all probability cease to look for heavenly manifestations and take him self to other fields. After waiting in vain fur tho pastor to vacate, the trustees Sunday adopt ed drastic measures and when Mr. | Hcyer arrived at the sacred edifice to hold the regular service he found the doors locked and the trustees standing on the steps. An exchange of greet ings followed and after becoming sat -1 isfied that he could not gain entrance into the church the pastor departed. This church war is one of the most interesting in the history ot Northum berland county. Ordered out by the parishioners, told to vacate by tic elders of his church and commanded j to leave by the conference, Rev. lleyer persisted in his determination to await the coming of the "divine call." At i first a fairly large sized congregation attended the services but for the past six months the number steadily dim : inished, until it dwindled down to i three or four loyal parishiouers. The pastor's salary was reduced to a mere pittance, but still lie; remained. Now that he can no longer have the | church at his disposal it is thought that Rev. Heyer will leave the town. The next pastor will face a difficult task in the reorganization of the dis rupted congregation. Arranging for Memorial Day. The G. A. R. memorial service will be held at Piue Street Lutheran church on Sunday, May 24th,at 10:80 o'clock. The sermon will be preached by the pastor, the Rev. Lloyd W. Walter. The comrades will meet at G. A. R. 1 hall at 9:30 a. m.on the day of the 1 service. An invitation is extended to 1 the Sons of Veterans or any other org ' auization that may desire to attend. Goodrich Post has appointed com mittees and is otherwise preparing for Memorial day. The man who knows more than is good for him is a sad case of over-de velopment.

National and Tristate for 11)07 are giv en in full, a reference to settle future arguments. The chase for the pennant, that trophy which is the most sought of all rewards for athletic effort, forms the subject of a first-page story and a striking illustration in colors. George Al. Graham, The North Am erican's sporting editor, has an article on the managers of the Tristate teams. School news, a specialty of The North American, is taken care of with a full page.
