PROGRAM FOR
MEMORIAL DAI
Goodrich Post, No. 22, G. A. K., at
its last meeting arranged its program
or Memorial day. The task this year
has been no easy one, as the features
of the observance have had to be ar
ranged so as not to conflict with the
exercises of unveiling the soldiers'
monument.
May 80th, this year, occurs on Sun
day. Following custom the decorat
ing of the graves aud the other feat
ures of the observance at most places
will be carried out on Monday, which
will be the true Memorial day. In
Danville, however, Monday has been
set aside for the unveiling of the sol
diers' monument, which has necessita
ted something of a departure in the
matter of decorating the graves.
As arranged the graves of the sol
diers, sailors aud marines in Mon
tour couuty will be decorated ou Sat
urday morning, May 29th,by Goodrich
post. The various committees, which
have this detail in hand, arc being
selected by the chairman, George W.
Boat, aud will be announced .n a few
days.
On Sunday May 30th, the memorial
sarmou will be preached to the mem
bers of Goodrich post by the Rev
Samuel Fox, at St. Peter's Methodist
Episcopal church, of Riverside.
On Monday, May 31st, the members
of Gooodrich post, accompanied by the
pupils of the public schools, will meet
at the post room at 1 o'clock. The
veterans aud children will march to
the river bridge,where the usual cere
mony will take place of casting flow
ers upon the bosom of the water in
memory of the sailors aud marines
who went down to unknown graves.
This part of the observance will be
unattended with auy other ceremony
than the firing of three volleys by the
tiring squad.
At the river bridge the veterans aud
school children will countermarch,
proceeding to the soldiers' monument
in the park, where the usual memori
al cercmouy will be rendered and the
memorial oration will be delivered to
the veterans by the Rev. 1,. 1). Ulrich,
pastor of Trinity Lutheran churcii.
The period of the afternoon prior to
about 2 :30 o'clock has been set apart
for the memorial ceremany of the G.
A. R. including the address by the
Rev. L. D. Ulrich. Immediately fol
lowing. the part of the day's program
relating to the uuveiling of the monu
ment will take place. Some of the de
tails of tiie unveiling have not as yet
been arranged but the program will j
be completed in a few days.

SUSQUENANNA
MAGNATES MET
At a meeting of the managers of the
various teams of the Susquehanna
league, held in Bloouisburg Saturday,
the schedule for the month of May
was completed and action taken upon
a number of other important matters.
The completion of the schedule for
the seasou at Saturday's meeting had
been contemplated,but when the man
agers came together on the schedula it
was found impossible to complete it at
one meetiug and after framing up the
first month's schedule, which includes
eight games,the completion of tiie en
tire schedule was held over for a fu
ture date.
SCHEDULE AS COMPLETED.
The schedule as completed follows :
May B—Nantiooke at Berwick; Al
den at Bloomsburg; Nescopeck at Shi
okshinny ; Benton at Danville.
May 15—Danville at Nanticoke: Al
dnn at tihicktdiiiiny; Bloomsburg at
Nescopeck; Berwick at Benton.
May Nanticoke at Bloomsburg ;
Shickshinny at Alden : Nescopeck at
Danville; Benton at Berwick.
May 29 —Bloomsburg at Shickshin
ny ; Alden at Nescopeck ; Danville at
Benton; Berwick at Nanticoke.
May 31—a. ai., Nanticoke at Alden;
Berwick at Nescopeck : Bloomsburg at
Danville; Shickshinny at Benton.
May 31—p. in., Alden at Nantiooke,
Berwick at Nescopeck; Danville at
Bloomsburg; Shickshinny at Benton.
R EPUESBNTATIVES PRESENT.
Present at the meeting were the fol
lowing. all ttie teams being represent
ed exoept Shickshinny. Hoffman, of
Danville; Hess, of Nauticoke; Breeoe,
of Alden ; Savage, of Berwiok ; Patter
son, of Nescopeck; Titel, of Blooms
burg; Mcllenry, of Benton.
PROTEST WAS DECIDED.
Nesoopeck's protest to Blooinsbnrg's
signing of Moyer, last year's pitcher,
came up and was decided by Nesco
peck securing liira. From the state
ments it appears that Moyer had sign
ed a preliminary contract with Nesco
peck and had later signed a league
contract with Bloomsburg. After a
dlsousslon of the matter it was decid
ed to have President Steiber Inter
view him and ascertain with which
team he preferred playing, this with
out any interference on the part of
either management. This was done
and Moyer ohose Nescopeck and the
iucideut was closed. Nauticoke also
came down with a protest against Ber
wick playing "Huuky Joe." The pro
test was ill founded,however, for Ber
wick, who turned over their contracts,
had not signed him.
OTHER MATTERS DISCUSSED
The by-laws came iu for discussion
and they were so amended that the
president has the power and control
over all league umpires. The approval
of the players was taken out of the
bauds of the board of directors and
given to the president
The eligibility of players also came
up for discussion and it was decided
to change the by-laws so that any man
who successfully plays professional
ball for a month or more this season
is debarred from partiacipatlng in
Susquehanna league games.

SHOEMAKER FOUND
INSENSIBLE
Euglebert Albert, the weil-known
shoemaker, was found insensible in
hi* place of business early Tuesday
morning as the result of a sodden at
tack of illness. At last accounss he
was quite seriously indisposed.
A newsboy, who was passing Mr.
Albert's shop near the corner of Pine
and Bloom streets, was surptised to
see his feet protruding from the half
open door. At the same moment Seth
Lormor came along, who lost no time
in making an investigation.
It would seem that Mr. Albert had
just returned from market, when he
was seized with the attack and fell.
After some difficulty he was partially
restored to consciousness,and removed
to his home on Spring street. His
ymptouis were considered serions. g
OWNER OF CANAL
APPEALED TO
Although the streets and alleys are
being cleaned up and the business
places are being decorated with the
stars and stripes aud so many other
things are being doue to make the
town tidy aud attractive for the Odd
Fellows' anniversary, yet thtre is
great dauger that the old canal, the
greatest nuisance in tiie borough, will
be overlooked.
The first few days of warm sunshine
have produced the usual effect. The
vilest of odors aud effluvium are ex
haled from the filthy and sewage-scak
ed bottom, which is rendered still
more offensive by the accumulation of
trash that has fouud its way into the
old ditch.
The attention of the public can not
be invoked too earnestly to this eye
sore, this source of contagion main
tained in the midst of town.
The matter was brought up in coun
cil at its last meeting but no definite
action was taken. This was uot be
cause the members did uot think that,
in view of the Odd Fellows' anniver
sary aud the other important, eveuts
scheduled for Danv.lle during the next
few weeks, a thorough draining and
cleaning of the old canal was uot a
desideratum., but rather because the
solicitor had advised against any sucli
a course on the part of the borough
(or purely technical reasons
Siuco the meeting of council the
question has been submitted to the U.
L. & W. Railroad company, the own
er of the canal, begging that it take
hold of tiie matter iu some way that
will afford instant relief. In the past
the D. L. & W. Railroad company al
ways denied responsibility for the
foul and unsanitary condition of the
old canal, claiming that all tin pollu
tion had come from a local source and
might have been averted. Under the
circumstances it is doubtful whether
any practical help will oome from the
D. L & W. Kali road company at this
time.
It is intolerable to reflect that the
j old caual must lie iu its present con
| ditiou during Odd Fellows' day,when
j thousands of strangers will pour into
i town. What kind of an impression
l they will earryjhome with them,if the
i old canal is permitted to lie in its pre
' sent condition, it is uot difficult to
I conjecture.
If it should come to the worst aud
| the borough hesitates to act iu the
premises could uot individual citizens
take hold of the matter - The canal be,
; tween Mill and Ferry streets, at least
ias well as a small section west of the
1 Mill Btreet culvert, should be cleaned
■ up at whatever cost. A shallow ditch,
dug at trifling cost, would drain oil
] the water anil after a few days the
j vile odors would decrease.
Public Fountain In Commission.
The public fonutain has gone iuto
commission for the season. It was
{ much frequented Monday At this
j season the river water is still quite
1 palatable and it is surprising how
many persons stop to quench their
| thirst at the fountain. The new cup,
| the contribution from .T W. Phillips,
is in almost continuous use.
i The delivery aud other horses con
t stautly employed on the street hafe
1 not forgotten their favorite drinking
plane and now that the water has re
appeared may be seen drinking with
: their accustomed regularity.
On the whole the fouutaiu would
| seem almost indispensable iu hot aud
I ilusty weather. No finer gift could
| have been presented the town, aud the
ladies of the Ghriatiau Temperance
! Union, whose diligence aud humane
| sentiments made the fouutaiu possi
j hie, have the satisfaction of kuowiug
that it is most nobly fulfilling its miß
| sion.

LADYLIKE ME
OF BASKET BALL
Wlieu the gentler sex breaks into
athletics it puts the editor rather up
agaiust it, (or lie (ion't kuow whether
to hand out the assignment to the
sportiug writer or to the social hack.
For Saturday evening's event of the
basket baii game between the Danville
high school and the Suubury Young
Women's Christian association, it was
decided that it was up to the sporting
man to cover the story, and now the
poor fellow can't decide whether lie
is supposed to hand out the usual bank
et ball dope or dwell upou the social
features of the contest.
Anyway (to get a start) it was a
select audience, and a large one too,
that gathered at the armory for the
event, included being a bunch ol' fair
rooters from Sunbury, numerous papas
and mammae of the Danville contest
ant*, and rah rati boys in pleuty to en
courage the var;it>.
There were to have lieeu two g<iijies
but Sunbury was able to send but one j
team to Danville at the last minntu, |
becaus , as explained bv Misi Griffith j
the physical director and chaperone of i
the visitors.Saturday night being beau
night a number of the fair athletes i
from the down river towu were (on
strained to remain at home. Danville
boasttug of two teams each of which
demanded reooguitiou the personuel
was divided so that one team plsyed
daring the first half and the other
team during the'second half, the same
group of visitors doing duty during
the whole game.
At the end of the game the score
stood 22 to 8 in Sunbury's favor, which
might indicate to the unexperienced
that the local bevy had been worsted
at all points, which certainly was not
the case. Tree, the Sunbury team
played better basket hall.hut Dauville
had them far and away heateu as to
looks Another reason for Sunbury's
victorious score might be found, bot
we hesitate to say it, in the slightly
more advanced age and greater weight
of the visitors.
Girls' basket ball is a vastly differ
ent proposition from the ordinary var
iety when the boys get out on tlis
floor and raise a general rough house
for two halves. With the former, as
is natural, the sport is far gentler, al
though notwithstanding all precau
tions one Sanbury player had the mis
fortune to receive the plump weight
of a Danville damsel on the left ankle
with the result that a slight sprain re
salted.
T n the girls' variety of basket ball
there are six players instead of five,
the additional one being a oenter.
Marks on the floor keep forwards,
centers and guards on their own sec
tions of the floor, only forwards being
allowed to toss baskets. Almost any
thing constitutes a foul, but as not
many of the foul tries result in tallies
that doesn't make much difference.
That the audience enjoyed the event
was attested by the cries of admira
tiou and enthusiasm that burst sponta
neously several tlmesand which were
promptly quieted by the referee.

APPROVAL OF
BOND REVOKED
Jodge Evans Saturday handed down
an opinion relative to the legality of
the court's action in approving the
bond ot Alfred Bleolier, tax receiver
of Cooper township, for the year 1909,
which coutains points that will prove
of value to the public, making clear
the course to be pursued when a simi
lar state of affairs occurs in the future.
The approval of Mr. Blecher's bond
was set aside and revoked by the
court.
THE FACTS.
From petition and answer the fol
lowing facts appear :
That Alfred A. Hlecher was appoint
ed by the court tax collector tor Coop
er township, February i 6, 1906.
That in spring election in said town
sihp on February 19, 1907, the said
Alfred A. Blecher received a majority
of votes cast for tax collector.
That the said Alfred A. Blecher
qualified and served as tax collector
for said township during the years
1907 and 1908.
That ttt spring election held in said
township on February lti, 1909, Alouzo
Mauser, the petitioner, was elrcted
tax c ollector of said township for the
three > ears next ensuing
That on February z"i , 1909, the court
approved the bond of Alfred A.
er as tax collector far the said town
ship of Cooper for the year 1909.
On behalf of the petitioner it is con
tended that the appointment of Alfred
A. Blecher, the respondent, on Feb
ruary 28, 1906, was for the unexpired
term of :i years ; that the elect;on of
February 19, 1907, was a nulity and
that the approval of the respondent's
bond on Kebruary 27, 1909, for the
year 1909, was erroneous and should
be stricken off and set aside. On the
other hand the respondent challenges
the correctness of the petitioner's con
tentions.
THE LAW ON THE SUBJECT.
After quoting the acts of June t>,
1893, and of July a, 1895, Judge Evans
states:
"The acts of assembly aro decisive
of the question. Tax collectors
throughout the Commonwealth are
eleoted triennially under the act of
June fi, 189:!. The first election under
the act occurred in February, 1894,
and thereafter triennially would bring
February 1909, as the proper year for
electing tax collectors throughout the
Commonwealth.
"It, therefore,follows that the peti
tioner, having been elected tax collect
or at the February election, in 1909, is
1 entitled to qualify and serve for the
; year 1909.
| ' And now to wit, April 17, 1909,
rule absolute. And it is further ord
ered and directed that the approval of
j the bond of Alfred A. Blecher as tax
! collector for the year 1909, for Cooper
township bo revoked and sot aside,the
i oounty to pay record costs.

INSPECTED THE
IHPROVEHENTS
After the session of court Saturday
Judge Evans viewed the frescoing in
the oourt room. He was muoli pleased
with the effect, especially, of the
figure cf justice, which is now in its
place at the rear of the bench.
The absence of the bandage over the
eves was noted and commented upon
by Judge Evans, who stated that the
open face of the figure of justice pre
cisely meets with his ideas on the sub
jeet.
Judge Evans said that he did not
presume to dictate in the matter, but
merely explained to the contractor
! why an open face appealed to his judg
■ ment. The figure of justice in the
j courthouse of New York Oity is minus
j the traditional hoodwink. Judge
Evans cited other places where the
j open face has been adopted,

Any wild or cultivated plaut whose

Tonic or Stimulant?
There is an immense difference between a tonic and a
stimulant. Up one day, way back the next; that's a
stimulant. Steady progress day by day toward perfect
health; that's a tonic. Ayer's Sarsaparilla is a tonic,
a strong tonic. The only Sarsaparilla entirely free from
alcohol. Do not stimulate unless your doctor says so.
He knows. Ask him. Do as he says. iCAyer Co., Lowell, Mass.
Constipation is the one great cause o* sick-headache, biliousness, indigestion, bad
breath, debility, nervousness. Has your doctor ever recommended Ayer's Pills to you?
Often The Kidneys Are
Weakened by Dyer-Work.
Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
Weak and unhealthy kidneys are re
sponsible for much sick ness and suffering,
P therefore, if kidney
trouble is permitted to
continue, serious re
sults are most likely
to follow. Your other
organs may need at
tention, but your kid
neys most, because
they do most and
should have attention
first. Therefore, when
your kidneys are weak or out of order,
you can understand how quickly your en
tire body is affected and how every organ
seems to fail to do its duty.
If you are sick or " feel badly," begin
taking the great kidney remedy, I)r.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root. A trial will con
vince you of its great merit.
The mild and immediate effect of
Swamp-Root, the great kidney and
bladder remedy, is soon realized. It
stands the highest because its remarkable
health restoring properties have been
proven in thousands of the most distress
ing cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. , •■^ J|

River Bridge Needs Paint
It is not known what action the
jonnty commissioners contemplate tak
ing in the matter but it is the con
•ensns of opinion that the river bridge
jugth to be painted this snmmer.
Over a year ago the grand jury re
jommended that the bridge be given a
loat of paint and grand jnrtes have
■tone on record to the same effect ever
since. Much of the iron woTk, especi
illy the big batter posts show the bad
affects of rust and present a most un
sightly appearance. The only way to
protect ironwork is to apply paint
freely That the painting of the bridge
has been postponed quite long enough
is evident to the most indifferent ob
serv?r.

Affairs at Poor Harm.
The advent of spring has brought
about a redaction iu the number of iu
mates at the poor house of the Dan
ville and Mahoning district. During
the last few weeks the number lias
fallen from twenty-seven to a trlfie
over twenty
The advent of mild weather proves
a temptation to those affected with
" wanderlust" and they lose no time
iu getting out on the road again, be
sides, spriug work is coming on and
there are a good many jobs on the poor
farm that the inmates can do, even if
not very robust. •
Whitewashing is a job that is "loom
ing up largely" on the poor farm. The
board at a receot meetiug decided to
whitewash not ouly the fences and
many of the buildings but also the
trees of the orchard. Comparatively
little whitewashing was dono In the
past and the way the present board of
direotors contemplate eutering opon
the work has filled the habitues of the
farm with dismar.
