A FUNERAL One of the most thrilling runaways | that over took placo on our streets oc- j enrred about four o'clock Tuesday afternoon as tlio funeral of the child j of Mr. ami Mrs. Harry Ilixsou.a dipli- I t.heria victim, was proceeding to o<ld I Fellows' cemetery. The runaway I horses collided with a buggy and j smashed the roar wheel of the liearse, | after which they were brought under ] control. Tin- funeral owing to the nature of | the disease was a private one and con- | tained but a single cab,in which were ! seated Mrs. Hixson, the mother of the deceased child, and Mrs. John Grier j Voris, at whose residence the child j died. When the liearse aud cab reached the j Bloom street crossing the 4 p. m. pass- i euger train had just stopped there. The rear end of the train, however, 1 left the crossing clear. Mr. Doster and his driver crossed the track with the hearse and the cab, which belonged to j Moyer's livery and was driven by j Frank Shelhnmuier, was closely follow- [ iug, when the team of horses attached j to it took fright and with a single • bound escaped temporarily from the i driver's control. Swinging to the ' right the team collided with a bnggy driven by Nathan krum of Cooper township smashing the rear wheel and causing the buggy to drop to the i ground. At this juncture the feelings | of tlie occupants of the closed cab can ! -easily lie imagined, but the worst was j to follow. The horses, still beyond the 1 driver's c mtrol, vt ered to the left side j of the street and some :»() yards east of t!io cro.-sing overtook the liearse. At this point one of the horses, j which was especially ungovernable, j reared, as he came down falling be- j tween the side of the hear.-.e and the I hind wheel, which latter was smashed > to pieces, causing the rear part of the ' hearse to drop to the ground. The mixiip had the effect of some- I what checking the spc« (1 of the horses but they managd to run some distance j further when they were brought tin- j der control by the driver. Mrs. Hixson and Mrs. Voris, the oc cupants of the cab, escaped injury as did also Mr. Krum who was in the ! buggy that was wrecked. If wis necessary to procure another ( hearse and to transfer the casket,after • which the journey to the cemetery | was completed and interment was made.

THE IRON AND STEEL INDUSTRY The Pittsburg district is now turn ing out the greatest monthly tonnage of pig iron in its history. For the first time in years, all of the forty-j nino furnaces in the district are in J blast. In the Mahoning and Shenango j valleys thirty-eight out of the forty i stacks are producing iron,and anothor j will go in blast December lOtli. The i forty-nine stacks in Pittsburg alone , gave an output last week at the rate of (51X1,000 tons a month, which is ; twenty-five per cent, of the make of j tho entire country. The secret of the j situation in basic foundry iron, ! however, is that over (50,000 tons is in ' the hands of speculators,most of which must be realized on by the first of the j year. The lot of basic dumped on the market last week aggregates about 15,- j 000 tons, the holdings of one man. j More is held in this district. The pre- j ! sent break will be but temporary, but j | it is having its effect on contracts for ! next year's supply, buyers looking ' | askance at quotations for 1910 iron that a week ago they accepted as a | matter of course. The Pressed Stcil j Car company will start its Woods Run I (Pittsburg) plant, within ten days.aft- I er which its requirement, of steel plates j j on its running contract with the Car- I negie Steel company will be about 1,- i 800 tons a day. The Standard Steel j Car company is taking (500 tons a day j for its Western plants, and is enlarg j iug its capacity at its Eastern works j at. Baltimore and Middlctown, Pa. j The American Bridge company's Nov- I ember bookings will total over HO, OOO | ions of fabricated materials,including the St. Louis bridge, 15,000 tons, and | the Brooklyn subway, 85,000 tons; and ' its fabricating plants pushed to their j utmost, cannot turn out more than .',00(1 tons per working day with the j present deliveries from the rolling ! mills. The An erican Steel and Wire | company's orders for the mouth also | will exceed the total capacity of its i plants by nearly 40,000 tons, according jto estimates made at the close of the ; week. In sheets and tin plate there I has been heavy specifying against con tracts that expire January Ist. making the last half of November the heaviest , fortnight of the year on the sales I books of the American Sheet and Tin [ Plate company.

A TWO FOLD SOURCE OF WATER It will be news for many of our read ers to learn that the water which sup plies the hydrants of town is in no j small proportion the pure spring art j icle; that in tho bottom of each well j in the river is a strong aud natural ! fountain through which tho water, i sparkling and clear, issues from the ; depth of the earth, constituting a sup : ply, which if it were properly hus- I banded, would meet all the demands | of our water takers—thus giving them | coveted "spring water" without addi i tional expense or any inconvenience. These facts wore laid before a rep ! resentativo of this paper by Water Com missioner Edward Gorman a day or so ago. Although it is interesting to note the facts yet there is nothing in them i to encourage the belief that in future I yaars tho water commissioners will devise methods whereby the spring water will be utilized to a greater ex- tent than at present. In the first place according to Mr. ' Cortnan, under the wasteful methods ! in vogue, tho springs could not be re-1 lied upon to supply the town; in the) second place the spring water is so hard that, river water, even if of ques j tionable purity, is to lie preferred. The existence of tho great springs in the river bottom has been known of from time immemorial. When the water works were installed the wells to supply tho plant were sunk in the river so as to utilize the great springs. Up t-.i a score or more years ago, Mr. Gorman says, the springs were relied upon almost exclusively to supply the town. The wells into which they flow- ; i d were covered,while the water from | the river that filtered through tho sides was found during the course of a year to constitute a negligible quantity. All the river bed hereabout is compos ed of limestone and the spring water, consequently contained so much min eral substance that it was unlit for j many purposes. At this juncture the | wells were opened and water from the! river was permitted to flow in. The steady expansion of the water system since that time with unrestrict ed use of water at this day makes it impossible to supply the mains with out leaving the wells open. Mr. Corman states that he is confid ent that even now the water from the springs would be found suliicicnt to meet all demands if meters were in stalled on the watertakers' premises so as to lead to greater economy in the use of water. However, if the spring water obtained in the river is so hard as described it would seem useless to indulge in any speculations as to its additional use. The chief interest in the premises seems to lie in the fact that, aside from the current of the river, which has always proved adequate, Danville has an unfailing source of water un affected by drought. A NATURAL PLAY Daniel Sully has been known for many years as "the natural actor," because of his avoidance of anything like cheap theatriealisui and stagiuess in his methods. His new production "The Game" which comes to tliej opera house on Tuesday, Dec. 7th, should add materially to his reputa tion in this respect, for not only was his own role taken from real life, but several of the subordinate characters in the play were suggested by striking personalities iu the locality where the 1 scenes are laid. With such a founda tion of genuineness supporting a plot that, while absolutely novel,is at once plausible and really possible in • very day life. Blood For Bread. Bnngrr: To what lengths will It Irlve men! Here Is a passage from "Force," a tale of Napoleon' 6 day* de scribing how ten veteran hussars un der a young officer, after two days without food, fought like fiends fur a loaf of bread stolen from a woodman: "He trembled with covotousness, but he did not move. He was starving, but he was an officer. "The foremost rider speared the loaf up with Ills saber, clutched It and be i gan to eat. The others quickly closed in on him. He was gripped frotn be hind and half strangled. The bread fell into tho mud. The men then be gan to tight in bitter earnest, and their sabers Hashed dimly in the fall ing rain. One of them reeled under a saber stroke and fell back ou his horse. "lie (the officer) flung himself in the melee and was thrown from his horse. As he crawled along the mud out of the way of tlie trampling hoofs he put his hand on the bread. Ills fears at Knee vanished, lie bent over his prize, hiding it from view of tlie struggling soldiers, and lowered his head and got the loaf under his teeth and ate it." Apple*: For President Taft.

"What would be the consequences of | firing a barrelful of nitrogen iodide it | would be impossible to say," declares i a writer in the London Strand Maga | 7.ine, "simply because the stuff is too i awful to be made in such quantities. ! "It may sound like a joke, but it is nevertheless the truth, that the tread ! of a housefly is sufficient to explode this dangerous material. It is not necessary that a fly should walk over the compound. It has only to let ono foot come into contact with the explo j sive, when the jolt causes it to ex plode and to blow the Insect Into the air "Another manner In which the pecul iar property of this explosivo can be demonstrated is by scattering a small quantity of the dry powder over a sheet of clean paper. It then resem bles pepper and only needs a few sharp breaths of the manipulator just sufficient to make them roll—to cause each speck to Ignite and ex plode, meantime giving off a long, thin column of dense purple smoke. If a barrelful of nitrogen iodide could be made it would have to be kept moist to prevent danger. By comparison gun powder Is a mild. Innocent, inoffensive material." Keep Cool.

STOCK SOLUTION OF THE SPRAYS JJ Considerable interest in Twin# shown j by Pennsylvania orchardists in the! matter of keeping on hand Htock solnc- I tions of the different (spraying mix- : tures, for the sake of convenience, ac cording to letters received by Professor ! H. A. Surface, State zoologist, of Pennsylvania, Harrisburg. Concerning these mixtures, Professor Surface wrote to a correspondent in the city of Reading, who had request ed information on the subject, as fol lows: "I would advise you against making np a stock solution of mixed Bord eaux. The best tiling to do is to make your concentrated bluestone solution containing at least one pound of blue stone in a gallon of water, and keep ing your milk of lime (or, in other words, freshly slaked quick lime and ! water) in another barrel, and stir I these up and put them together when 1 needed, rather than to mix them to- j getlier now. Remember Bordeaux is j only for plant diseases and not for in- | s >ets and it is much better when fresh ly mixed. "The lime-sulphur wash you can j make and keep as long as you wi h anil it will kill the scale. The only j point is to be sure there is enough diln- ' tiou before it gets cold to keep it from ; crystallizing. The commercial mat | erial does not crystallize. | "Tl.e kerosene emulsion you can ! make by the formula in the June Bui- ; j let in of the division of zoology, Har risburg, and keep it as long as you ; wish in stock solution, and dilute it when needed. In its concentrated con j dition it is almost the same as the solu -1 hie oils now on the market. By kero- ; i sene we mean the ordinary coal oil, i such as is used in house lamps, as you ! say. Ten per cut. kerosene emulsion i means an em lus ion so diluted that win ii it is dilnted, and applied to the trees, it carries ten per cent, kerosene . and ninety per cent, water. | "The Bordeaux arsenate of lend mix S ture is a proprietary compound on the i market. B is no better and is more expensive than that which you can ! prepare yourself. To make the same ! all that you need to do is to make | your Bordeaux and add arsenate of i lead to it; about two pounds of the latter poison to fifty gallons of water j being in general correct, *lr is then ! a poison for chewing insects, and also : a preventive spray for plant diseases, but will not kill sucking insects like | scale insects and plant lice. The arsenate of lead takes the place of Paris green anil sticks better and lasts ; longer. This Bordeaux arsenate mix ture is especially advisable for codling ! moth, which makes wormy apples, ' and peaches,and should be spray ed just after the petals fall, and again iu ten days or two weeks. Remember it is not used for scale insects, and is ; not to be applied to trees when dorm ' ant because it is not needed then." How'i Thia ?
