DANVILLE WINS GREAT ME THE Clover Club, Bloomsburg's rattling basket ball aggrega tiou, wliioli lias been claiming the championship of this section, went down to defeat before the Danville team at the armory Saturday night in a fast and furious contest. The game was witnessed by a large crowd. From the time the referee Tfllew his whistle to start the play until the game ended with the score at 34 to 28 in favor of Danville, there was some thing doing every minute. * Danville took a small lead after five strenuous minutes on a goal from a foul and soon afterward added two more points by a field goal. This lead the locals maintained at the close of the lhst half. In the second half the Clover Club, with defeat staring them in the face, went into the game with every energy keyed to win. Several times by clever team work they managed to tie the score, but Danville every time would come back with the points needed to regain the lead. The playing throughout the game was of the heartrending kind that had the spectators on their feet all the while,and at times became so fast and intense that some roughness crept in, of which both sides were equally guilty. Every member of the local five play ed a fine game. The floor work of >Gaptain Dailey, the guarding of Sny der and tho goal shooting of Ryan in the second half, were the individual features. For Bloomsburg Welliver and Hagenbuch divided the honors. The Clover Club has played thus far this season eleven games and this is their second defeat, the other being at ihe hand:; of Shamokin in a game on New Year's at the latter place.

NATURE TELLS YOU As Many a Danville Reader Knows Too Well. When the kidneys are sick, Nature tolls you all about it. The urine is nature's calendar. Infrequent or too freqenent action; Anv urinary trouble tells of kidney ills. Doan's Kidney Pills cure all kidney ills. People in this vicinity testify to this. William Spatts, 8T Lincoln St., Mil ton, Pa., says: "Mv kidneys were dis ordered for a long time and my back was very lame and weak. Any move ment, bringing a strain on the mus cles of my back, was very painful and a weakness of the kidneys clung to me compelling me to arise at night. The kidney secretions were attended with a scalding sensation in passage and there was so frqeuent a desire to void them at night that I could scarcely get any rest at all. My general health was affected and I felt miserable when I was advised to try Doan's Kidney Pills. I used them according to di rections and they soofi removed the lameness and pain, regulated the kid ney secretion and improved my gen eral health. I appreciate the merits of Doan's Kidney Pills and recommend them at every opportunity," For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

Sunday afternoon, \ and during the busy sessiou action was j taken on a number of important mat ters relating to the season of 1910. Danville was represented at the I meeting by Manager Simon K. lIofT- I man and W. G. Pursel, vice president i of the Danville Athletic association, j All of the other towns in tho league | last season were represented as fol- J lows: Bloomsburg, Hagenbuch; Ber- | wick, Savage; Nanticoke, Job; Alden, j Turner; Shickshinuy, Colley; Nesco-j peck, Splain; Benton, Long. On motion of Hoffman, of Danville, seconded by Colley, of Shickshinuy, William L. McCollom, of Wilkes- j Barre, was reelected president of the Susquehanna league for 1910. On motion of Colley,of Shickshinuy, action was taken allowing each team to sign 18 players. This is 3 uioro than clubs wore allowed to have on their J rolls last season. I It was also decided that all players who were under contract with any Susqneahnua league club last season are reserved to that club for next, sea- ' son. This will prevent any manager from signing a player who was under contract with another Susquehanna league club last season, unless the consent of that club's manager is first gained. On motion of Colley,of Shickshinuy, the league was put on a t>s and 35 per cent basis—os per cent of the gate receipts to the home team and 35 per cent to the visiting team—with a S3O guarantee. Last season visiting clubs were paid $25 for all league games. This change made it necessary to adopt a uniform admission fee ami up on motion of Hoffman, of Danville, and admission to all league games was fixed at 25 cents aud 10 cents for chil dren. On motion of Hagenbuch,of Blooms burg, it was ordered that umpires be paid $5.00 for one game and $7.50 for a double header. On motion of Colley,of Shickshinuy, the season will start on May 7th and continue to September 10th, which starts the games about the same time as last year,aud ends three weeks earli er. The president appointed a schedule committee to include beside himself, Job, of Nanticoke; Hoffman, of Dan ville and Splain, of Nescopcck. The matter of playing two games a , week was brought before the meeting and was advocated by Danville and Nanticoke. Action was deferred nntil next meeting. The proposition was re ceived with not much warmth by the smaller towns in the league. On motion of Job, of Nanticoke, passes that are issued to newspapers by managers will be accepted at any grounds in the league,aiul that no oth er passes will be issued. In this con nection it was decided that all passes used during a league game will be paid for by the homo team. Mr. Hagenbuch,representing Blooms burg, stated to the meeting that the Recreation club,of Bloomsburg, would not put a ball team in the field next season, but that it was the intention to endeavor to organize a stock com pany iu that town and asked for a j franchise. The franchise was granted. The meeting adjourned to meet again on March 20th.

PHONE OPERATOR CHUMMED While Miss Mary Kuukle, 16 years old, iind her brother William, 10 years, wore alouo in the United Telephone and Telegraph office at Shamokiu early Saturday morning where Miss liuiiklo is night operator, a strange man en tered. The boy was asleep on a conch. The intruder ran to the girl and pressed a handkerchief saturated with a drug to her nose. The boy awoke and scream ed for help. The man ran toward him and was trying to render liim unconsc ious with the drug,when the girl, fast succumbing to the drug,called up Sun bury and said she was being chloro formed. The Sunbury operator called Solins grove and asked the niglit operator there to have the Bell operator call Shamokiu and toll the operator there of the peril of the girl in the United exchange. The entire transmission of the messages took but a short time, and in less than five minutes after Miss Kuukle had sent in her call for help the message had been sent in a roundabout way to a hotel. At the latter place the niglit attaches left their posts and notified officers, who hurried to the telephone build ing. Finding the front door lmrred, the police lost no time in tearing it from the hinges. They dashed up the stairs and upon entering the room they detected the odor of a strong drug,the effects of which almost bliuded them and caused intense pain. A second later they found Miss Runkle on a chair in front of the switchboard and the brother ou the couch. Both wore senseless. They were carried to an open window in the rear of the telephone office and a doctor arrived in a few minutes and found that nitrate of aniyle, a power ful drug, had been used by the assail ant in overpowering tl»j> operator,.and her brother. They were driven home and revived after much difficulty. It is supposed that when the intruder realized Miss Kuukle had called over the wire for help ho immediately fled.

Plymouth Rock. riyniouth rock has become an object of veneration In the United States be cause of its interesting historical asso ciations. As is well known, it is the rock er ledge on which the pilgrims are believed to have lauded when they llrst stepped from their boats in the harbor of what is now I'lymoutb, Mass. lu 1775 part of the rock was removed to tile vicinity of I'ilgriui hall, but was afterward restored to its original site and is now under the stone canopy that surmounts the main rock ou Water street. Charles Sumner said. "From the deck of the Mayflow er, from the lauding at Plymouth rock, to the senate of the United States is a mighty contrast, covering whole spaces of history hardly less than from the wolf that suckled llomulus and Kemus to that Roman senate which on curule chairs swayed Italy and the world." The Hypocrite a Genius. Heally to he a hypocrite must re (|Ulre a horrible strength of character. An ordinary mau such as you or 1 gen erally falls at last because he has not enough energy to be a man. But the hypocrite must have enough energy to be two men. It Is said that a liar should have a good memory. Hut a hypocrite must have not only u good memory of the past, but a consistent and creative vision of the future; bis unreal self must be so far real to him. The perfect hypocrite should be a trin ity of artistic talent. He must be a novelist like Dlckeus to create a false character. He must be an actor like Garrick to act it. And ho must be a business man like Carnegie to profit by It. Such a genius would not be easy to find in any country.—G. K Chesterton LODE WOMAN HORRIBLY BURNED Miss Emma Turner, residing on D. L. & W. avenue, just below Church street, was the victim of a probably fatal burning accident about 10 o'clock Friday night. The burns which Miss Turner sustained as the result of burn iirg oil falling on her clothing are tei rible in the extreme, and cover her en tire body and limbs above her knees. Miss Turner resides alone. The ac cident occurred when she was about to retire. She took a hanging lamp to light her way to bed, and on the stairs some of the oil leaked and ran down the outside of the lamp, igniting. She turned and ran down the stairs and through the kitcher to throw the burn ing mass into the yard, in her haste her clothing caught fire. By the time she arrived at the kitch en door her dress was in flames. A neighbor, attracted by her cries, ran to her, and endeavored to extinguish the fire by wrapping his coat about her. This proved insufficient, and lie wrapped about, her an old carpet that lay in the yard. Before the tire could be extinguish ed nearly every stitch of the woman's clothing had been consumed, and the flames were licking the flesh. Dr. Hiushillwood, who lives nearby on Church street, was quickly 011 the scene, and did all ho could to relieve the woman's terrible suffering. Over her entire body and limbs the terrible j burns extend, leaving not a place 1111- j touched. In some places where the 1 burns are worse than others, the flesh I is charred. S. OF V.

The opinion states that it is conced |ed by counsel for both sides that tho provisions for caring for juries in homicidal cases are totally inadequate. ;In reviewing two cases from Nortli- I umberland county, in both the court ; was called upon to pass on tho mis conduct of jurors. In tho present case a juror went alone and unattended to : the toilet on one occasion and on an ; other occasion several went there. | Tho jury the court states was in 1 charge of two tipstaves, one of whom ion account of his advanced years was utterly unfit for tho jxisition. The ! court then reviewed briefly all the charges of misconduct on the part of I the jurors. They noted each time they ; wont into bar-rooms, barber shops, j drug stores, etc. I Tho law requires "sober, intelligent aud judicious persons." They must not. touch auy liquor while they are hearing the case. The court then tells of each quantiy of liquor which the Fisher jury drank and of the occasions when they had it brought to their rooms in the hotel. Referring to the deplorable inadequ acy of handling juries in homicidal cases in Sunlmiy the court states that tho jury was kept at a hotel in the busiest part of town, which was an unfit place for persons who must be isolated. They were required to pass through crowded corridors and halls where people were conversing. The court then stated that tho trial judge on hearing this evidence should have immediately granted a new trial to Fisher. They say: "A verdict ob ; tained under circumstances of this character cannot receive the approval of a judge of court which has a proper respect for and enforces the constitu tional rights of its citizens."
