Barnick, Superintendent MANY DOGS NOT ASSESSED Now that a crusade against rabies lm -n been started the following bit of static. *ical information showing the number o. 112 dogs assessed iu the county will possess to most people a peculiar significance. In each of; the .wards of Dauville dogs are assessed as follows: First ward, 73; second waru, 177; third ward, 28; fourtli ward, 37, maK i U! rn total of 215 (logs in the borough of Da. •jyille. In Derry township 115 dogs . as _ sessed; in Anthony township 1 25 are assessed, the total of the two town ships being 210, which exceds tin , mun . lier of dogs assessed in the boro' ag i, 0 f Danville. The same thing occ nrs ; u the townships of Liberty aud M Tahon ing the former having 167 dogs on the assessor's list and the latter 127, t... total being 294. which exceeds. the number of dogs assessed in Danville. In the other townships dogs are as sessed as follows : Cooper 54; stoue 64; Mayberry 47; % alley 113, * West Hemlock 37. In Washingtonville borough 15 dogs are assessed. That the 215 dogs assessed in the borough of Dauville are only a frac tion of the number that possessed the , freedom of the streets before the quar- , antiue was declared is a self-evident fact. The act of June 1. 1907. the ob ject of which was to compel the pay ment of tax on dogs, does not seem to have had the desired effect iu Dan v, all dogs to wear a collar together w*i tached thereto showing the payment of tax and providos for the killing of dogs whose owners fail to comply with the provisions of the act. The county commissioners last year purchased a lot of tags and a number were given out on payment of tax. It was learned Tuesday that few, if any tags have been given out as yet the present year. The special ageut of the Live Stock Sanitary board, who was in this city last week stated that the law is being enforced and is found to work very satisfactorily. In his opinion there is no donbt as to its validity, which in some counties was questioned at first. Every dog,which does not wear a tag, he said,under the law is presumed not to be assessed and must be shot by the constable after the latter lias compli ed with the proper procedure. EASILY DECIDED. This Question Should be Answer ed Easily by Danville People. Which is wiser—to have confidence in the opinions of your fellow-citiz ens, of people you know,or depend on statements made by utter strangers residing in far-away places?

The usual circular governing the an j uual inspection, while in camp, is now in the hands of the adjutant gen- I eral, aud will doubtless be announced Jiu a day or two. Owing to those brigades arriving successively, on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, In ] spector General Sweeney has arranged to liavo the inspection of personal ap pearance on Friday for the Third brigade ;on Saturday for the Second briagde, and on Monday for the First brigade. The field work will be in spected in the same manner,the Third brigade on Wednesday, Second brigade ! on Thursday and the First brigade on 1 Friday. In this portion of the inspec tion work there will be no close order business. The "Excendent Order," "Advance and Rear Guard" and "Out post Duty," will comprise the pro gram. Through such an arrangement the briagde commandants will be able to cut. loose, in between time, as it were, for any manoeuvering they may choose. The First briagde will be fav ored iu having more ground to work over towards the end of its tour, as the other brigades will pull out ahead of the First, which can utilize the 'ound the others vacate.

PURE FOOD LAWS UNENFORCED A remarkable statement concerning efficiency of thejiure food; campaign iu this state, was given oat Saturday by Dairy and Food Commissioner .Tames Fonst at Harrisburg, wiio said : Some time ago we determined to thoroughly investigate the quality of various brands of canned goods, soups, potted meats, etc., sold in the state. We concluded to make a comprehen sive job of it. Special agents of the division were Bent into the following counties: Mercer,Crawford, Erie War ren, Veuaugo, Armstrong, Westmore land, Indiana, Blair, Huntingdon, Clearfield, Centre, Lycoming North umberland, Dauphin, Lancaster and Lebanon. The special agents of the division gatiiered in all sorts of cau ned goods. They collected corn, peas, beans, tomatoes, asparagus, oysters, perhaps some'other sorts. They ac cumulated a large variety of the stand ard soups. They purchased a collection of potted meats,consisting of.chickeu, haai, tongue, aud veal loaf. Nor did they neglect weinerwurst aud pork sausage. These commodities were put up iu various states of the union. They bore all sorts of trademarks and were variously branded. Having collected our samples we sent them to compet ent'chemists for analysis. Not a single one of all the 850 samples contaiued a chemical preservative aud none was artifically colored. Were we disap pointed? Why, sure! but it was a pleasant disappointment. For we would far rather commend a manu facturer for making and a dealer for selling houest goods than detect him in a fraud. One thing about these goods, however, 1 think you ought to tell the people. Tiie brands costing the most money were invariably the best, the caus containing less water or juice. The corn was of the best grade and well packed in tiie can, the tomatoes were in many instances whole, and were fine aud plump. The others were not injurious to health but they were not the equal of the better grades, aud I am satisfied that the cheap ones were the most costly, since they contained far less substances than the others. War Against Consumption. All nations are endeavoring to chec the ravages of consumption, th "white plague" that claims so many victims each year.

Bennett of Castle Grove has presented the borough with three ornamental iron settees for tue in the public park. They were deliver ed at the grounds Monday. The settees are of the finest work manship and will each afford com fortable space for five persons. They were placed in position Monday aft ernoon, each beneath a large tree oat side the concrete sidewalk between the park and Bloom street. There is abundant space between the trunk of tiie trees and the pavement to accom modate the settees. Not only do the seats,rustic in designs,impart a finish ing touch to the park, but they fill a long-felt want at that point, affording an inviting place for persons to'rest and refresh themselves while passing backwards aud forwards between up per Bloom street and the business quarter of town. Already Monday afternoon the seats were occupied by ] persons who found pleasure iu view- } iog the park The Petrikin cemetery is now neat- j ly graded and presents the same finish- j ed appearance as the.park proper. Only j a few touches remain to be applied, after which the workmen will leave i the park. Tiie installing of flower beds, which j is wholly iu the hnuds of the residents ' living near tiie park, just now is up- ! permost iu the mind of people. The labor expended on this branch of the work by the public well attests to the general interest that is felt iu the park improvements aud tiie desire to see them carried to completion. The large triangular flower bed at the northern entrance, planted by families living on Upper Mulberry street, was described in a former is sue. Since then a large circular bed has been planted with geraniums near the concrete sidewalk about midway between the southern entrance aud the P. <te R. railway. The geraniums, sev eral hundred iu number, were present ed by Florist LeDuc. The latter bed, like the one planted at the Upper Mul berry street entrance,presents a thrifty appearance and the two add very much to the beauty of the park. Monday two other flower beds were finished by the park workmen, and that evening every thing was in readiness for planting them. Each of these beds is in the shape of a star aud js large in size. One of them is in the north-east sec tion of the park and is i:i the hands of the ladies of Upper Mulberry For planting this bed Mrs. John R. Bennett presented the borough with 300 coleus, which were delivered into the hands of the Monday aft ernoon. Tiie other bed or star is located at the lower end of the park within full view of the station platform.

STATE WILL HELP ME[GET WORK Hereafter the State of Pennsylvania j will receive applications from the un- j employed and endeavor to put them to j work. The scheme has been evolved j by Johu L.

Chief Rockey has decided after study of the statutes that there is nothing to prevent his bureau from engaging iu such work aud lias opened com- j munication witli organizations of the j Young Men's Christian Association and other bodies throughout the State, I so that lists of those desiring men or employment may be kept. "At present there is a demand for aid in the harvest,' said Chief Rookey. "I know of counties where 1 men cau receive good wages aud sub- 1 stautial board and where unless hands are obtained the gathering of the crops I will be seriously interfered with.

Au interesting address was ue livered by Dr. George E. Holtzapple of York, a member of the committee of the State Aledioal Society on In ebriate Asylum lu order to popularize the idea of a State inebriate asylum laymen as well as physicians were invited to be pres ent. The turn out of both was quite good. Among the physicians present in addition to the hospital staff were the following: Drs. Shultz, Stock, Gurry, Newbaker, and Barber,of Dan ville; Dr. Detwiler of Williamsport; Drs. Bruner, Montgomery, Shuman and John, of Bloomsburgand Dr. Bit ler of Pottsgrove Among the laymen present from Danville were the fol lowing ministers of the gospel: Revs. John Conley Grimes, James Wollaston Kirk, Jules Foiu, William Brill. Dr. Holtzapple very ably and con vincingly explained the necessity of au inebriate asylum. At the conclusion of his address the subject was discuss ed by Dr. Meredith and the clergymen I present. In conclusion, on motion, it | was ordered that the sentiment of those present be recorded as heartily ! in sympathy with the State medical so- | j ciety in its efforts to establish a hos- I pital for inebriates. Dr. G. E. Stock of Danville read a paper entitled "Hydrophobia with Re- j j port of a Case.'' After dwelling at length upon the j description and history of the dread malady Dr. Stock wound up with a [ "few words to the skeptics." It is au j undeniable fact, he said, that tl.ere is a disease in man which kills and j which is produced by a dog bite. The I features of this disease are occasional !ly simulated by other maladies and ; this fact has been made by certain lay | writers the ground for denying the oc currence of rabies in man; but such ! denial is only possible through lament j able ignorance and its refutation is needless (says Gower). Medical liter ature is replete with cases of hydro | phobia,published by eminently respect I able authorities whose words aud judgment ou auy other disease dare j not be questioned. Some of these cases reported leave no ground for supposing that any mental element entered into j the causation of the symptom, the ! victims even dying without any re | cognition whatever of the true nature i of their disease.
