lECIIOHLAWS IB BE REVISED The next legislature will be naked to ire a number of defects in the sche ule of the recent ly adopted amend lents to the eons itution of the State. Since the adoption of the amend ient» the State department has been ooded with inquries regarding the ffect on the terms of various public fficers not provided by the schudele. 'or the benefit of inquirers a oompi la lon has been made of the thiugs that 'ill have to be taken care of by the tgislature. All of these will be i,n orporatod in a bill tl.iat will be pre anted early in the session of 1911. As judges of the county courts can nly be elected in odd numbered years, t municipal elections, it will be ecessary to lengthen for one year the ; urms of the judges whoso coinmis ions expire with the end of the years 912, 1914, 1916 and 1918. The schedule I as already provided that those judges vhose terms expire with the end of 910 shall continue in office another j ear. Terms of justice of the peace end on he first Monday of May of each year, 1 xcept those to be elected in February, 910, who shall serve until the first tlouday in December, 1915. The pro >osed act must state specifically that he terms of those elected in 1906 shall >o lengthened to the first Monday in Jecember, 1911; those of 1907 and 1908 i) the first Monday of December, 1913, ind those of 1909 to the like date in 191."). The schedule takes care of city.bor mgh, township and ward officers elect ed in 190S for three years; their terms co end on the first Monday in Decern oer, 1911, and their successors to be ] -lected in November of that year but 1 it remains for the legislature to extend | the terms of such officers elected in 1909 to the first Monday in December, j 1913. Term of officers who iu the past have ■ been elected for four years will have j to be elected to the first Monday in December of the proper year, as fol lows : Those elected in 1907, to Dec ember, 1911; those elected in 1908, whether to the samo date (which would shorten their term a few months) or to December, 1913, which would lengthen them one year and eight I months. Those elected in 1909 for four years are provided for in the schedule and will serve until the first Monday in Decemper, 1913. Officers elected in 1909 for two years should serve until the first Monday of December, 1911, but this is not provid ed for iu the schedule and will require action by the legislature. One of the mistakes iu the schedule I is a provision that assessors elected in ] February, 19J0, shall serve until the j first Monday iu December, 1911, al though heretofore these officers have been elected for three years. Under the amended constitution those elect ed after this year will serve four years. CURED TO STAY CURED How a Danville Citizen Found Complete Freedom from Kidney Troubles. If you suiter from backache— From uriuary disorders— From any disease of the kidneys, Be cured to stay cured. Doau's Kidney Pills make lasting cures. Danville people testify. Here's one case of it: Mrs. Charles Whispell, 12T W. Mah oning Street, Danville, Pa., says: •My experience with Doau's Kidney Pills justifies me in saying that they are a remedy of merit. I had sharp twinges in my loins and at times my back was so painful that I could hard ly straighten. 1 did not sleep well and in tiie morning when I got up, the backache was as distressing as ever. It was difficult for me to change my position when lying down and the stiffness across my loins made it a task for me to arise after sitting. A tired, languid feeling clung to me|and I was all out of sorts. Reading about Doau's Kidney Pills and hearing them highly spoken of by local people, I was induced to give them a trial. A sup ply was procured forme from Hunt's Drug Store and the use of one box made a decided improvement. The paiu and soreness was relieved and I regained my strength and energy." (Statement'given January 2, 1908.) CONFIRMED PROOF. On January 24, 1910, when Mrs. Whispell was* interviewed, she said: I am glad to say that Doan's Kidney Pills completely cured me of kidney complaint. My former endorsement of them still holds good " For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milbnrn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.

MARRIED HIS COMPETITOR Charles Faux, the Bloomsburg mer chant who married a corner storekeep er to stifle competition, is now in the Columbia county jail,lacing a number of charges, all outcroppings of his matrimonial experience. Soon after his marriage several months ago, Mrs. Faux returned to her old store and Faux went to live with his daughter. His wife had him arrested on a non support charge, his former housekeep er caused his arrest on an assault and battery charge and when he learned he was to be arrested for breach of promise by a third woman, he left his store behind to be sold out by the sheriff anil skipped to Canada. He re turned, however, to Berwick and was there arrested by Chief of Police Ba son.

PERSONS SUSTAINED FflL S The firm stand taken by the borough in insisting that the snow be removed from the sidewalks within the limit of time prescribed by the ordinance seems | too have been productive, of good re j suits. A gentleman whose business l took him over a good part of the bor ough Saturday remarked that he nev er saw the ordinance so well observed. By evening it was rather the exception than otherwise, even on tho back streets, to find a sidewalk from which the snow had not been removed. Tiie rendered the ice covered sidewalks very , treacherous. Even where they had been Bhoveled off the thin coating of granulated snow that remained iSeem«it to make the uuderly ' ing ico more treacherous. A very large ' number of persons sustained painful I by falling where the walking ! h%l the appearance of being pretty safe How some of those who fell escaped sustaining broken bones it is ! hard to understand. The most pain | fully hurt was William Hullihen who was injured about the hip. Ho was 1 taken to the home of his sou, Wilford j Hullihen, Lower Mulberry street, j where he received surgical attention. ' Dr. Curry, who attended him saw no i ' evidences of a fracture, although the ] bruise sustained is very painful. A natural concomitant of this long and rigorous winter is icy and almost impassable sidewalks. The oldest citi zen can not recall a similar condition ) during a winter of the past. Practic ally ever since the holidays :n my of j tho sidewalks, especially those on the ; sheltered or southern side of the j streets, have been coated with ice. While in many instances this coudi- 112 tion is due to the frequent thawing] and freezing and is unavoidable, yet in too many instances it is caused by defective aiid leaking rain pipes,which drain the water from the roofs to the : | sidewalk where it adds to the const- j antly accumulating mass of ice. An- | i other cause lies in the fact that as a j very general thing tho sidewalks lie, . too, low and as tiie snow in the street melts the water drains upon the pave- I ment. It is, of course,impossible to do any- j thing to remedy these conditions at i present, but their repetition can be j avoided by giving proper attention to j the piping and raising the pavements j where needed before another season i rolls around. A Safeguard to Children. "Our two children of six and eight j years have been since infancy subject 1 to colds and croup. About three years | ago I started to use Foley's Honey 1 and Tar, and it has never failed to ! prevent and cure these troubles. It is 1 the only medicine I can get the child- | reu to take without a row." The j above front W. C. Ornstein, Green i Bay, Wis., duplicates the experience • of thousands of other users of Foley's | Honey and Tar. It cures coughs, colds ; and croup, and prevents bronchitis and pneumonia.

John,of Shamokin, the Dan- j ville it Pottsville railroad is spoken j of as being the first railroad chartered in America. The information appears in an article j in Sunday's Philadelphia Record. That part of the article containing the j local reference is as follows: "A series of three papers by Dr. J. | J. John, of Shamokin, have for their themes that fascinating subject, 'The j Great Road or King's Highway.'! This was the road of 1770 which led 1 from the site of Schuylkill Haven on the Schuylkill to the site of Suubury j on the Susquehanna, and which was i the follower of the Liglitfoot™survey j of 1759. Lightfoot was authorized by j au act of the Provincial Assembly to j see if it was practical to construct a j road between Philadelphia aud Fort j Augsnta. Dr. John's history of the j Danville & Pottsville railroad of 1820, the first chartered road inJAmerica, is another of his characteristicVontribu tions." INJURED BY FALL B. F. Kelly, Water street, sustained a fall on Saturday which will doubt- j less incapacitate him for labor for sev- t eral days if indeed the injury does not prove more serious. Mr. Kelly, who conducts a black- j smith shop on the south side, was on bis way home to dinner when at the j corner of Pine aud Front streets he slipped on the icy pavement, falling on his left side. The arm and hip are , bruised and severe pain at tho base of the spine would indicate that there ! may be oilier injuries. Shenandoah Making Plans.

MIRACULOUS ESCAPE FOR GIRL Engineer Harvey Brumbaoh, of Sun bury, while on his run on the pass enger train from Mt. Oarmel to Sun bury on Saturday afternoon had one of the most unusual experiences in his railroad career, when a little girl, who was run down by the train, orawled unhurt from underneath one of the coaches after being draggod one hun dred yards. Mamie Jones' parents are dead. She is eight years old and lives with her uncle John Haddock, of Shamokin. On iSaturday'she started to visit her grand mother, Mrs. Haddock, who lives at Boydtown. She travelled on the Mt. Oarmel and Shamokin trolley line as far as Ooal Run. There she got off and started to walk the rest of the way on the tracks of thp Pennsylvania rail road. While she was crossing bridge 25, the afternoon passenger train sud denly appeared around a curve. The little gill ffas too frightened to move. She was knocked down by the engine, which passed over tier body. The train, ran ou a hundred yards before Engineer Brumbach could bring it to a stop. Then the little girl picked herself from underneath the baggage car and start ed to run down the track. One of the trainmen grabbed her. To all of the persons who were pres ent, her escape was miraculous. The engine, tank and baggage car had pass ed over her. She was taken back to Shamokin and removed to her home. Outside of a couple of scratches on her forehead, she was unhurt. Sore Lungs and Haw Lungs. Most people know the feeling, and the miserable taste of ill health it in dicates.

Irey,{president of the Montour County Sunday School as sociation, has decided that in view of the prevailing weather conditions it will be better to postpone the time of holding the convention in the tivo dis tricts outside of Danville, from the present month to the last week in April. The district presidents have been notified to that effect. While no definite action has been taken as yet it is probable that the convention of district No. 5, compris ing the schools of Danville, will be held before the latter part of April. The inclement weather and the re sulting bad condition of the roads both last year and the year before, j when the meetings were held during I the first part of February, were re- ; sponsible for the slim attendance at I the majority of the conventions in the i outlying districts.

BIG SCARE AT IRE HOSPITAL A dreadful scare occurred at the hos pital for tho insane Sunday morning, when for a few minutes it looked as though the great institution for the secon 1 time in its history was to be swept by tire. Simultaneously, at a very early hour, in all the wards a peculiar black smoke with a pungent odor made its appear ance. From minute to minnte it in creased in volume and before a gener al alarm con Id be given the long cor ridors were literally black with smoke (Uid persons standing a few yards apart could soarcely recognize each other. T?he greatest alarm was occasioned not only among the patients, but also the attendants,who saw visions of a great conflagration. One of tho first notifi ed was Steward H. B. Schnltz. He was amazed at the condition of affairs as he ran through the wards. The smoke by that time was so dense ato cause discomfort. It required as cool head to do the right thing without wasting a moment at that critical period of time. I I Mr. Schultz quickly developed a j theory. He hurried to the boiler house j and began an inspection of the tower I erected there in connection with the ! heating and ventilating system. What he found at the base of the | tower, was a mass of waste and oily rags on fire, the dense and suffocating [ smoke emitted being carried through j the underground duct to the buildings j housing the insane and thence distri- j buted throughout all the wards. Nothing remained to bo done but to j throw out the burning mass and to j wait for the smoke to pass out of the j wards. The fire it is believed, was | caused by spontaneous combustion. i All were greatly relieved to learn ! that the building was in no danger of j falling a prey to fire. Mr. Schultz acknowledges that it looked to him at ! first as though the very worst was i about to occur. Sleighing Party.
