SO. SIDE FAMILY
AGAIN BEREAVED
The first death resulting from the
present prevalence of diphtheria and
the second fatality, within the last
six months in the family of Mr. and
Mrs. John P. Riffle, of South Dan
ville, occurred on Monday night when ;
their twelve year old son, Praneis,
died after an illness of but four days.
The lad was particularly bright for
one of his years and for six months or
more had been employed as a newsboy
by the agency of the Philadelphia pap- \
ers in this city.
On Friday Praneis came home from
school and, complaining of a headache,
went to bed. He grew rapidly worse
and Dr. N. M. Smith on being sum
moned, pronounced the ailment a well
developed case of diphtheria. Anti
toxin was administered and every
thing possible done to check the dis
ease. About 11 :2u Monday night the
boy asked for a drink of water and
made au effort to raise himself on his
elbow. The exertion was fatal. He
collapsed and breathed his last a few
seconds later.
The details of the tragic death of
the two year old daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Riffle in May last, are still fresh
in the public mind. The little tot
while playing around a boiler of hot
water, toppled over into the scalding
fluid, sustaining burns so severe that
she died in twenty-four hours. There
are four children remaining.
KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL
Health !s Worth Saving, and Some Dan- j
vi!!e People Know How to Save !t.
Many Danville people take their i
lives in their hands by neglecting the !
kidneys when they know these organs [
need help. Sick kidneys are resposible j
for a vast amount of suffering and ill I
health, but there is no need to suffer i
nor to remain in danger when all dis
ease- and aches and pains due to weak
kidneys can be quickly and permanent
ly cured by tile use of Doan's Kidney
Pills. Here is a Danville citizen's re
commendation
Miss Bessie Weir, 127 W. Mahoning
St., Danville, Pa., says:"The prompt
and thorough relief I received from
backache through the use of Doan's I
Kidney Pills, procured atJHunt's drug !

FES IMPERIL
IWO DWELLINGS:
Two dwellings on West Mahoning
street on adjoining squares were im
periled by fire at nearly the same hour
Friday morning. At each place the
flames had gained considerable head
way and were extinguished in the nick
of time.
The first fire occurred about 9 o'clock.
As Miss Ruth Trainor turned the cor
ner at Hunt's drug store on her way
to her home on West Mahoning street
her eye was arrested by fire at the sec
ond story window of the building op
posite in which is situated Frank Link
er's tobacco store and Dr. J. Beaver
Gearhart's dentist rooms. The second
story, in which the fire occurred, is a
flat occupied by William Fansuaught
and family.
When the fire was discovered by
Miss Trainor both the lace ami the oil
cloth curtain were in flames. She gave
the alarm immediately. Frank Linker
in order to render assistance dashed
up stairs and was the first to inform
the family that there was fire on the
premises, Mrs. Fausnaught being busy
with the morning work in another
part of the flat.
By that time not only were the cur
tains practically consumed but the
flames had laid hold of the paper on
the walls. Fortunately a tub of water
was found in the kitchen, by means of
! which the flames were extinguished
j with little delay.
It is not known for a certainty how
the fire originated. A noteworthy
feature of the affair is the timely dis
covery.
THE SECOND FIRE.
Shortly after 10 o'clock a fire broke
out iu the dwelling of Frank Jameson
at the corner of Factory and West
Mahoning streets, which proved more
difficult to extinguish than the first
mentioned fire. At the Jameson dwel
ling the fire originated in a large clos
et under the front stairway. When
discovered the contents of the closet
were burning rapidly. When the door
was opened a volume of smoke and
flame shot out into the room.
Mr. Jameson was not at home, but
an energetic alarm soon brought help
from thi> neighbors. Frank Newbaker
was one of the first to arrive and he
did good execution. A garden hose
was quickly brought into requisition,
but before this could be connected sev
j eral buckets of water were obtained
I from the hydrant, by means of which
| the flames were checked. The fire,
however, had eaten its way in under
I the stair steps where it was difficult
| to get at it and where it continued to
| burn. It was necessary to break a hole
| in the stairs before the tire could be
| entirely extinguished.
One of the family had occasion to
enter the closet with a light sometime
before the tire occurred and it is
thought that one of the articles bang
ing inside accidentally caught fire.

DOWN TO 30 DEGREES.
Mercury yesterday morning went
down to thirty degrees, unmistakably
the lowest of the season thus far. The
last bit of green vegetation that sur
vived was blighted by the heavy frost,
j Even the ponds by the roadside bore a
coating of ice that remained during
! the morning hours.
The cold was quite biting, produo-
I ing cold fingers where persons were
| exposed as in driving. The leaves are
falling very rapidly and but a few
i weeks remain until we shall stand at
| the threshold of cheerless winter.
Died at Mifflinville.
j Harvey M. llcss, of Mifflinville, who j

however, was disposed to be lenient.
The decree of the court was that
each pay the cost of prosecution, the
remainder of the sentence being sus
pended. Each of the men was given
distinctly to understand that he will
be obliged to liquidate the costs. The
whole matter,they were informed, will
be held in abeyance and that if at any
time their conduct is in the least sus
picious, a bench warrant will be is
sued and the sheriff will bring them
into court, when the sentence, now
suspended, will be imposed,which im
plies that they will be given the full
penalty, three years in the peniten
tiary.

| When the verdict was returned lie had
j moved for an arrest of judgment and

day to withdraw the motion.
j He reminded the court that while
I the verdict was one of guilty the in
! dictment charged three spearate of
fenses—the placing of a fence, a side
walk and a hitching post in the road.
The wording of the verdict, he said,
| made it obvious that the jury consid
j ered the defendants guilty only as re
j lated to the planting of the hitch ill
| post in the road. The court seemed tc
i coincide with this view and Franklit
i and Charles Maus were called before
court.

HUNTERS BAG
THE LIMIT
Tho returns are beginning to come
ill from hunters who have been trying
their luck since the opening of the
season and the general verdict is that
game of all kimls is plentiful.
At least a dozen of Danville Nim
rods have bagged tho limit of squir
rels in one day, namely, six of the
combined kinds, fox, black or grey
squirrels.
Pheasants, which have been scarce
for a few years, are said to be on the
increase and very good luck is report
ed. Hunters are inclined to believe
that there was a disease among pheas
ants during last year and the one pre
vious. Birds were found lying dead
ami not a few were shot that were
evidently diseased. The birds this
year are plump and healthy, in addi
tion to which they are more numer
ous, facts which would indicate that
the disease has died out.
It is believed by hunters thai wo are
indebted to the game preserve of Hon.
Alexander Billmeyer for the abund
ance of squirrels and wild turkeys that
are found on Montour Ridge. Squir
rels, especially, are propagated by
thousands at the game preserve and it
is only natural to suppose that large
numbers of them yield to their wild
iustinct and seek the mountains- that
lie so near. The wild turkeys spend
the summer on Montour Ridge and
that they all return to the game pre
serve as winter approaches is hardly
probable.
RABBITS IN TOWN.
It is believed that the rabbit season,
which opens on November Ist, will
bring rare sport, for the reason that
rabbits this season are more plentiful
than they were ever known to be in
years past. Not only are they found
on every side in the country, but the
cotton tails have actually invaded
town and have taken up quarters in
the gardens and backyards.
A fine big fellow each night about
11 :,'!0 o'clock is observed to cautiously
make his way down East Market street
and after pausing awhile at the Mon
tour house corner to speed over to the
courthouse lawn,disappearing in that
locality. Several rabbits are known to
live in the back yards 011 West Mahon
ing street. Four large rabbit? have a
hiding place under the piles of scrap
iron in the yard below the Reading
Iron works and are daily seen caper
ing about the spot by persons passing
on the Northumberland road.
FUNEARL OF MRS. MOWERY
Mrs. William R. Mowrey, whose
death occurred Friday, was consigned
to the grave in Odd Fellows' cemetery
Monday Jafternoon. The funeral,
which took place from the family resi
dence, Vine stieet, at 2 o'clock was
largely attended.
The services were conducted by the
Rev. O. ('. Suavely, pastor of Trinity
Methodist Episcopal church, of which
the deceased was a member. The pall
bearers were three sons and three
grandsons of the deceased: John A.,
Samuel and Elmer Mowrey and Ed
ward, Joseph and Frank Yeager.
Among those from out of town that
attended the funeral were: Mr. and
Mrs. Eli Snideman, of Espy; George
Albeek and Mrs. Ella Cherry of
Wilkes-Barre.
HENRY LYON ILL.
The many friends of Henry Lyon, a
former resident of this city,will learn
with regret of bis serious illne-s nt his
home in Noifolk, Va. Mr. Lyon spent
some time at the Lyon home. Mill
street, in March, anil was then in bis
usual good health. The following
month he showed symptoms of a dis
ease of the blood which later develop
ed into a form of blood poisoning. Five
weeks ago he was forced to take his
bed and has been in a serious condi
tion ever since. If his condition be
comes such that it is possible to have
him moved he will be brought to this
city.
"The Flower of the Ranch."
In"The Flower of the Ranch,"
Messrs. LeC'ompte, Flesher and Wade
offer the amusement-loving public an
absolute novelty in a musical play.
"The Flower of the Ranch" was writ
ten and composed by Joseph Howard,
author of so many popular successes
native to Chicago. It is replete with
musical numbers that are seen in Mr.
Howard's best vein. The chorus was
staged by Mr. Mast, and the piece is
unfailingly bright from start to finish.
In the Wilkes-Barre courthouse
graft cases the prosecution has been
ordered togo 011 at the expense of the
county commissioners. The commis
sioners contended that they could not
legally appropriate money to pay the
expenses incident toward having ex
pert witnesses come from other States
to testify in the proceedings. It was
stated however, that the prosecution
could not be carried 011 without these
witnesses, so that after a conference
witn the chief prosecuting officers of
the county it was agreed that the com
missioners assume the responsibility.
111 the case of James L. Smith, Geo.
W. Worloy and John Eckaril, who are
charged with trying to corrupt Charles
A. Snee, a juror in the United States
court in the trial of a criminal bank
er, it was attempted to have the pro
secution quashed 011 the ground that
110 proof could be shown that the de
fendants knew that Snee was a juror.
The judge of the United States court
at Pittsburg refused to overrule the
motion and the defendants pleaded
nolle contendere (110 defense).

been observing her mother; she was
busy for a few minutes, however, and
when she again looked out of the win
dow she saw the deceased lying 011 the
ground beside the bench on which she
had been sitting.
The daughter ran to her mother's
side and placed her head in her hip.
Life was already extinct. Dr. Paules
responded to a call and pronounced
death due to paralysis.

ity ut Danville and spent her entire
life here. Her maiden name was Agnes
Still. She was a kind hearted and gen
erous woman, beloved in her family
