HAPPY RESULTS
Have Made Many Danville Resi
dents Enthusiastic.
No wonder scores of Danville citi
zeds grow enthusiastic. It is enough to
make anyone happy to tind relief after
years of suffering. Public statements
like the following are but truthful rep
resentations of the daily work done in
Danville l>y Doan's Kidney Pills.
Mrs. Chae. D Will spell, 127 West
Mahoning St., Danville. Pa., says:
My experience with Doan's Kidney
Pills .iustifies me In recommending
them. I had pains through the small of
my back aud kidneys and at times my
back was so paiufui that I could hard
ly straighten. I was unable to rest
comfortably and iu the morning when
I arose, I was scarcely able to get
about. A dull, languid feeling sapped
all my energy aud I felt miserable.
Doan's Kidney Pills were finally rec
ommended to me so highly that I pro
cured a box at Hunt's drug store. They
relieved the paius in my back, in a
short time aud after using one box,
my strength aud energy returned."

AWAKENED BY
FALLING ROOF.
The fine home of I. A. Eschbaoh, in
Turbot township. Northumberland
county, near the Paradise church, was.
destroyed by fire on Friday night,
amid the most thrilling circumstances,
the family being awakened by the roof
falling iu over their heads aud being
driven forth into the night, barely
escaping with their lives.
Mr. Eschbach's home was one of the
better class of farm houses,a large and
roomy home beautifully and comfort
ably furnished. During the evening a
stove in au out kitchen had been used
audit Is thought that the fire caught •
from a defective flue leading from this j
stove.
The stove was in use about 9 o'clcok J
to heat water for bathing purposes
and soon after that the family retired. !
About 11 o'clock Mr. aud Mrs. Esch
baoh were awakened by the crash of
timbers as the roof of their home fell
iu. They jumped from bed to find the
whole upper part of their home in
flames. They barely had time to
awaken their children aud run from
the house before the whole strncture
was wrapped in flames.
The house Is a total ruin ami every
thing that it contained was destroyed,
the occupants not having time to save
even their clothing.
Mr. Esohbach had been carrying in
surance on his home, but the policy
expired last Tuesday. He estimates
his loss at about 630C0.
HOUSE A LANDMARK.
The burned house was one of the
landmarks of the upper end of North
umberland couuty. The Esohbach
place known as Fallowfield, was pur
chased from the Penns by the great
grandfather of the present owner iu
1804. The bnrned house was built by
his grandfather iu 1814, aud was sub
stantially constructed. Iu the build
ing were a large number of heirlooms,
among them two chests brought over
from Switzerland by the elder Esoh
bach during the latter part of the eigh
teenth century, aud many valuable
| pioce.s of old furniture, silver aud
books aud papers that no amount of
! money could have purchased.

INCREASED FORCE
ON HARWOOD LINE
The force of 13 men who started on
the building of the power line from
the plant of the Harwood Power com
pany, at Harwood, to Berwick, was
augmented Tuesday by the addition of
30 more. Ttie force will be filled up to
50 shortly.
The lines are now down as far as
| Humboldt. It is plauned to have the
j wires put up to Berwick by December
Ist. The lines will run through Hum
boldt to Tomhicken, across the Nesco- j
p?ck mountaiu on the east side of the
gap aud across the river at Nescopeck.
Two big towers will carry the lines
across the river at Berwick. The right
of way acquired is 30 feet wide and at
this distance apart, two lines are be- '
ing built. The idea of two lines is so
that oue can be used in case the other |
breaks down.
When the wires are all up this win
ter, the Harwood cpmpany will sup
ply power to run the lighting plants
and car systems of Columbia aud Mon
tour counties.

PASTOR PREACHES
IFAREWELL SERMON
Rev. L. D. Ulrich preached his fare
well sermon at Trinity Lutheran
church at the moruing service Sun
day. The occasion marked the clos
ing of a most successful pastorate cov
ering a period of nine years. During
this time, tho congregation has great
ly inoreased in uumber and the in
terior of the church has been beauti
fully remodeled. During his pastorate
In this oity Rev. Ulrich has endeared
himself uot aloue to the members of
his congregation but to a host of oth
ers.
Rev. Ulrich took as his text 2 Cor
inthians 13—11; "Finally, brethren,
farewell. Be perfect, be of good com- |
fort, be of one mind, live in peace;
and the God of love aud peace shall be
with you"—being St. Paul's farewell
to the Corinthians.
Rev. Ulrich drew a comparison be
tween tho labors of St. Paul aud his
labors as a pastor in this city and ad
i uiouiahed his congregation in the
words of the text.
He thauked most gratefully, the I
members for their love aud kindness
ro himself and family during the time
he has beeu with them iu this,his first
charge. He expressed his gratitude
ror their help and forbearance when
as a youth he assumed the duties in
cident to his charge at Trinity Luth
eran. The relations between pastor
and people have been most harmon
ious. The severance of connections
takes place at this time with no feel
ing of reproach on either side. He
asked that the prayers of all follow
him iu his coutinuation of the Savi
our's work, to help aud strengthen
1 him to do his duty as he saw it. At
all times his thoughts and hopes will
ibe for the welfare of his present con
' gregatiou.

A VETERAN
ENGINEER
Danville has souie enthusiastic auto
uiobili.sta but the veteran among them
all is F. H. Vauuau of the south side.
Hefore the most of the present day
autoists were boru Mr. Vauuau was
| running a locomotive among the moun
tains of Northeastern Pennsylvania in
tlie days of primitive railroading. The
dangers and excitement of modern
railroading are not to be compared tc
what an engineer faced in the day*
when railroading was new,
When Mr. Vannau as a young man,
in tlie oO'b, entered the D. L. & W.
shops as an apprentice tlie company
owned but thirteen locomotives.
Hefore he left the company's emploj
| the uauiber of locomotives had in
I creased to over eighty.
| Adverting to his experience as s
locomotive engineer yesterday Mr
i Vauuau remarked that lie cousiderec
| the driving of an automobile uiori
difficult or,at least,as requiring great
er nerve, than rnuning a locomotive
The eni/ineer, of course, has to strait
all his energies, maintaining a shari
lookout and keeping his engiuu wel
iu hand; but he relies upon the tract
aud iu that tense gives littla though
as tci where he is going. The auti
i liriver has to maintain the same look
out and must be able to check his speei
or stop at n moment's warning au.t.ii
addition, has to steer his machine
: often threading his way through I
crowded thoroughfare. It is culy h;
the merest casualty that the eugiuee
I meets witn au obstruction, while il
the case of the chauffeur obstruction
are the very things that lie ha* li
rrckou with.
Mr. Vauuau remarked that man,
| persons. especially those of nervou
temperament, are unfit to haudle a
i automobile; nevertheless, he admitte
that it is remarkable how few accid
ents occur in automobiling that ar
du6 solely to any error on the part c

SUSTAINS INJURY
Rov Woolridge, an employe of the
, Structural Tubing works, sustained a
paiuful injury while at work Tuesday
| evening. Young Woolridge was work
ing at a butting machine and was
handling a two inch pipe eighteen fee
; in length.
In adjusting the pipe end to the
bulling wheel the force of the wheel
drew the pipe in between the etuery
wheel atid the carrying wheel, so
quickly that Woolridge could not re
move his left hand with which he was
holding the pipe in place. lustanlly
the whirling emery wheel caught the
hand and grinding into the upper part
j of the fingers, laid them open back to
the first joints, literally grinding the
flesh away.
Woolridge was assisted to the office
of Dr. Curry where the iujury was
dressed. The nature of the iujury
] necessitated the removal of (lie nails
of the first and little fingers.
