Miller, Gea'l Manager HAND INJURED IN MEAT CDTTER George Hoffman,employed at Joseph Smith's meat market, this city, met with a bad accident about 11 a. m. Monday as the result of which his left hand was badly mutilated and he sustained the loss of two fingers. Mr. Hoffman was cutting np meat for sausage, using the customary meat cutter operated by steam. Ho stopped the machluery and had his hand about tho knives when something occurred to cause the cutter to start. In an in stant the man's hand was under the knives, which are so arranged that in an instant they are capable of doing fearful execution on whatever falls un der them. By the time Mr. Hoffman was able to extricate his hand it was shocking ly mutilated. The first and second fingers up to the middle joints were literally chopped to pieces. On the ball of the thumb there was a long gash, which laid the flesh open to the bono. The endjofjthe thumb was also very badly lacerated. The injured man was hurried off to the offioe of Dr. P. C. Newbaker. He pluckily bore up under the painful in jury and was able to walk all the way to the doctor's oilice.although the loss of blood was very great and he could bo tracked by the red trail that he left on the sidewalk. The mau was in the doctor's hands for nearly two hours. Dr. Curry was called into assist in making the ampu tation. The first and second fingers of the left hand were amputated at the middle joint,in addition to which the several cuts and gashes on the hand were sewed up. The injured mau will be incapacit ated for work for many weeks to come. BLOCKADED Every Household in Danville Should Know How to Resist It, Tlio back aches because the kidneys are blockaded.

Deafness Cannot be Cured. by local applications, as they canuot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, aud 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 imperfuct 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 out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Shultz, Lafayette Seohler, William Welliver aud M. L. Kicliart, empanel etl in conuectiou with the discovery of the bojy in the river at Kipp'g ruu one week ago, reassembled at the office of Justice of the Peace E. W. Young Saturday evening, but they were un able to render a verdict owing to the absence of important witnesses. The jurors were sworn Sunday of last week, after which they viewed the body. The intention was to recon vene Monday night following aud render a verdict. Tiie identification of the body as that of Abraru W. Jones of Plymouth and tiie necessity of hav ing some of the family of the deceased appear as witnesses led to a postpone ment of the inquest. Acting Coroner E. W. Young called up a justice of the peaca of Plymouth who had assisted in the identification and recovery of the body aud request ed that members of the family appear at South Danville Saturday evening for the purpose of testifying. The justice left the acting coroner under the impression that witnesses would be on hand. As above stated, however, when tiie jurors reassembled there was no one present from Plymouth! Instead, how evre, there was an affidavit from the Rev. Mr. Griffith to the effect that lie had identilied the body as that of Ab ram W. Jones. The latter evidence, of course, was essential, but it was not all. It was equally important that the jurors should hear testimony relating to the man's disappearance from bin home so that they might determine whether it was a case of suicide or whether there was room for suspicion of foul play. Under the eircumstauces the jurors decided not to proceed with the case, Saturday night, but to adjourn tiie in quest until some subsequent date, when, if possible, tiie wife or son of the deceased, if not both, should be present. To procure their attendance when wanted tiie acting coroner will sub poena the witnesses needed indue aud legal form. If the facts relating to the man's disappearance, tiie leaving of a note behind, etc., as related by the Rev. Mr. Griffith and printed in the News, be sworn to by members of the family, eye witnesses of events, the jury wonld probably have no difficulty of reach ing a verdict of death by suicide. No date for the inquest was fixed Satur day night.

Iu addition to Jame9 J. Whipple, two boys, Morris Blee and Andrew Burke, were heard as witnesses. The boys swore that on Thursday, the date of the robhory, they saw Hullihen aud another man with a gold and a silver watch iu their possession, which were among the articles stolen from Whip ple's dwelling. The justice fixed bail at five hun dred dollars,which the defendant fail ed to procure. He was accordingly remanded to jail.

Thomas Elmes and H. E. Bohner, the latter proprietor of the mill at Roaring Creek, are buying all the wheat that can be obtained in Rush, and adjoining townships. They are shipping from South Danville, Roar ing oreek and Paxinos. Ou Saturday they finished loading the second car at South Danville. The sceue presented about the sta tion during the two days was quite a remarkable one. At times there were as many as sixteen wagons in a group waiting for au opportunity to unload. As early as t> o'clock Saturday morn ing six loaded wagons were lined up near the car awaiting the arrival of the man iu charge. All of which in dicates that the farmers appreciate the opportunity to get rid of their wheat in such unlimited quantities at one dollar per bushel. By Saturday night Messrs. Elmes and Bohner had loaded 3000 bushelß of wheat at South Danville. Many of the farmers earlier in the season sold por tions of their last year's crop, but tho two dealers state that there is still a great deal of whoat stored up in Rush township, as well as elsewhere, the j most of which they iiave purchased. During the present week they expect to ship six car loads additional. Colds That riang On.

THE SUPREME COORT OPINION Followiug 1b the supreme court's opinion in full relating to its recent decision reversing the lower court's decree that granted the Danville and Bloomsbnrg Street Railway Co., the right to cross the D. L. & \V. track on Mill street at grade : The Delaware, Lackawanna & West ern Railroad Co. vs. The Danville & Bloomsburg Street Railway Co. Jan uary Term, 1908, No. 85. Appeal'from the court of oommou pleas of Mon tour county. Filed May 4, 1908. Fell, J. The bill in this case was for an in junction to restrain the defendant, an electric passenger railway company, from crossing at grade the tracks of the defendant's road in the borough of Danville. The proposed crossing was upon the main street of the borough,whioli was thirty-six feet in width between the curb lines and closely built up on both sides. At tiiis place 14 regular trains cross the street daily and a full view I of the plaintiff's tracks can not be had \ in either direction ,->at a point more than a few feet from them. An order j dissolving a preliminary injunction [ was reversed and the injunction rein stated to maintain the status quo until final iiearing. On final hearing on the same testimony the injunction was I dissolved and a grado crossing allow ed subject to regulations imposed by the court. The conclusion reached by the court that it is not reasonably practicable to avoid a grade crossing is not found ed on ft finding that it is impractic able to construct an overhead crossing I at this place and to operate the de- , fondant's curs upon it but upon the j findings that tiie preponderance of the evidence establishes that an overhead | crossing on Mill street would be more dangerous to life and limb to operate than the present grade crossing and ! that "The crossing is a t so dangerous as to wurrant equitable interference by j the court." In reaching this conclusion the i wrong test was applied. The question is not as to the comparative dangers \ of an overhead and a grade crossing, J nor as to the extent of the danger of the latler, but whether it was reason ably practicable to avoid a crossing at grade The clear and explicit) mandate of the act of June 19, 1871, is that "If. in the judfauent of the court.it is rea sonably practicable to avoid the grade crossing they shall by their process avoid a orosaing at grade. " The policy of the state as here declared has been given the fullest effect in an u-brokeu line of cases extending from Railroad vs. Railroad, 77 Pa. 173, the first case that arose under the act, to Railroad vs. Bogert ,'WjPa. 589. The e::teut to which the risk may be reduce ' by the exercise of care, and the cost of con structing an overhead crossing,are not elements in determining the question ; Traction Co. vs Canal Co. 1880 Pa. (U0; Railroad Co. vs. Railway Co. 188 Pa. 84. The act is in effect a mandate to the court:; to prohibit grade cross ings unless it is impracticable to avoid them and unless crossing is an uupera tive necessity ; Traction Co. vs. Rail road 188 Pa 105. What is reasonably practicable is determined largely by what is physically practicable; Rail road Co. vs. Railway Co. 19; Pa. ;>6o. In railroad Co. vs.Lawraucecounty, 198 Pa. where the cases of the subject are cousid tred it was said by she pres ent Chief Justice: "It uiubS, there fore, be accepted as the settled policy of the Staie as administered by this court, that wherever the sub ject comes withiu its jurisdiction and coutrol.no grade crossing of a railroad over an other railroad or a common highway, will be permitted except iu case of manifest; and unavoidable necessity." Iu the latter case of 13. & O. Railroad Co. vs. Butler Railway 3>. 207 Pa. 406, our brother Mestrezat said "Iu all cases of proposed grade crossing, therefore, the only question is wheth er it is reasonably practicable to avoid it and, if so, the statute is mandatory to prerent it. In determining this question the main purpose of the stat ute, to protect life and property, is not to be ignored or disregarded. Experi ence teaches with absolute certainty that » grade crossing is unsafe and tluit its existence is a standing menace to human life This fast' should be kept constantly in mind in adjudicat ing thb rights of railway companies iu proceedings under the act of 1871". The decree is reversed at the cost of the appellee and it is directed that an injunction issue restraining the de fendant, its officers, agents and em ployes from constructing a crossing at ! grade of the plaintiff's tracks on Mill street iu the borough of Danville, Kennedy's Laxative Cough Syrup does not constipate, but ou the other ! hand its laxative principles gently : moves the bowels.

A. the financial condition of the Association was thoroughly disouased. The inject ors found that they were being handi capped in all phases of the work by the lack of funds. They found, among othor things, that the general secretary, who should be devoting a good share of his time to spiritual work, under the existing conditions, is compelled to almost en tirely confine his attention to mouey matters, in order to keep the income of the Association from falling below the actual running expenses. Recent ly, in order to meet expenses,the board was put to the necessity of borrowing. To relieve the stringency the board is now perfecting plans for a thorough canvass of the town Jfor memberships and funds. The Y. M. O. A. is a gift to Danville from one of the most pub lic spirited men who ever lived in this town, and the citizens of the commun ity which the Association is calculat ed to benefit should not allow a few dollars to retard its usefulness. During the canvass about to be made the board of directors hope the pgople w.ill respond and assist in placing the Association on a sound financial basis, thus permitting the officials to devote more of their time to religious work.
