The calf was but four weeks and four days old and weighed exactly 200 pounds. The average weight of a calf of this age is in the neighborhood of 130 ; ounds. OPENING GUTTERS ON MILL STREET The thaw Monday afforded ail op portunity to remove a good deal of the ice from the sidewalks and gutters, where it has lain in a thick mass for some weeks. The street commissioner for the first thing Monday morning put the bor ough employes at work opening up the gutters on Mill street in order to drain off the water, which was beginning to overflow the sidewalks. At many places the ice covering the paving was a foot in thickness and rose higher than the sidewalks. It was frozen so hard that gutters could be cut open only by means of axes oijother sharp tools. The ice melted very rapidly yesterday aud together with what was done to drain off the water conditions were much improved. On the other streets of town the gutters as a rule are blocked with snow and the sidewalks are in a bad condition as the result. With a largo proportion of people it seems to be a mooted question upon whom the re moval of the snow from the gutters devolves—the borough or the owner of or tenant occupying the property. That the borough does open the gut ters in some instances was evidenced by the work done on Mill street Mon day. It would seem, however, that work done by the borough in this line can not be taken as a precedent. The matter was threshed over at the last meeting of council. The borough ordinance is not difficult to interpret. The language plainly sets forth that it is the duty of owners or occupants of property to keep the "pavements, foot walks aud gutters" of their respec tive properties free from snow. The street commissioner Monday explained that as the business thor oughfare, where public comfort has to be taken into consideration, Mill street is regarded by the borough as forming an exception, and that the work be ing done there by the borough em ployes does not imply that the prop erty owners generally are not regard ed as responsible where the gutters are blocked. He admitted, however, that conditions this winter are ex ceptional and that at many places it maybe found impracticable to keep the gutters open. THE SOOTHING SPRAY of Ely's Liquid Cream Balm, used in an auto mizer, is an unspeakable relief to suff erers from Catarrh. Some of them de scribe it as a Godsend,and no wonder. The thick, foul discharge is dislodged and t lie patient beat lies freely, perhaps for the first time in weeks. Liquid Cream Balm contains all the healing, purifying elements of the solid form, and it never fails to satisfy.

Mr. St einer left Danville on the T :50 D. L. & W train Sunday morning The nuptial knot was tied at 0 p. m. at I Golden Star Hall, No. si Columbia street. New York. The ceremony was followed by an elaborate reception in the hall to which over three hundred invitations had been extended. Mr. and Mrs. Steiner will take tip their residence in Danville. Thejjgroom came to this city from Freelaud, Luzerne county, about a year ago and is known as an enterpris ing and successful business man. HORSE BADLY HURT A horse belonging to William Kea buck was badly injured on the Penn sylvania railroad crossing on the south side Monday morning. As ho was being driven over the track along with another horse one of his hind feet be came wedged fast between the rail and the plank on the crossing. Before he could be released the horse was badly injured, the hoof being split from the top to the bottom. The anim al suffered great pain and there are some doubts whether ho will ever fully recover. One of Spencer Vastine's horses caught his hoof in the same crossing Monday. Luckily the shoo came off and the animal got his foot out with out sustaining injury. Many Quail Lo»t. Heavy loss of game birds because of the severity of the winter is feared by State game authorities, who say that hundreds of quail and other birds must have perished because of the deep snow and the inability to get food. In many sections quail were saved by sportsmen who trapped and fed them, while numerous farmers have systematically cared for the birds. In many other cases the birds in well known hunting localities have been unearod for. New Flat Boat. Peter G. Baylor has built a largo flat boat to be used in connection with his coal dredge next summer. It is 45 feet, 10 inches long, 12 feet wide and 22 inches deep. It is now ready for launching. Out Again. William T. Shepperson, of River side, is able to be out again after a two weeks' illness of neuralgia. il PRISON AT WiLKES-BARRE The individual, who fleeced seveial of our merchants Wednesday by means of bogus chocks, is in all probability under arrest in Luzerne county. A follow who gave his name as Peter Daley was taken into custody in Nan ticoke, Friday, for trying to work a similar game on B. Levy & Bro. of that place. In his possession was found an overcoat believed to belong to R. L. Marks of this city. Daley or Dalaney a-* ho was known in Danville, bargained for a suit of clothes of B. Levy and Bro. on Friday afternoon, presenting a chock for fif teen dollars, which at once aroused the merchant's suspicion. Daley was arrested aud taken before Justice of the Peace Burnett of Nanticoke charg ed with forgery. In default of five hundred dollars bail he was committed to jail at Wilkes-Barre. Daley also attempted to pass a bogus check on C. H. Lecher of Nanticoke, in each of the instances cited the checks showed the payee to bo the American Tank ! company. Chief of Police Mincemoyer Satur- j day morning was in communication i over the 'phone with B. Levy and Bro., of Nanticoke, the firm that ac complished Daley's arrest. There is j no doubt in the officer's mind that | Daley is tho same fellow who fleeced ! j Danville merchants last Wednesday. ! j No action looking to Daley's prosecu -1 tien will be taken in this county at present, as Chief Mincemoyer was as- j sured by B. Levy aud Bro. that they have a first class case against the swindler and will seo to it that he is prosecuted to the full extremity of the law. An overcoat identified as tho one! taken from R. L. Marks in this city was iu Daley's possession when he was arrested and will probably bo return ed to the owner. B. Levy, who caught! Daley at his fraudulent game, about fourteen years ago conducted the cloth ing business iu Danville. He was located on Mill street iu the room uow occupied by Lowenstoin Bros. Daley, the man arrested, is said to live in Luzerne borough.

Elliott C. Armstrong, pastor of the Central Pres byterian church of Williamsport. The sermon relatod to prayer and the rela tion of prayer to the great truths of psychology, a scieuoe which is just now looming up so prominently and is engaging the best thought of the world Whatever view may have been held before, the sermon clearly dem onstrated that psychology has quite as much in it for the Christiau as for the scientist merely. To many, even those who had givon the subject somo study, the sermon opened up a new field of thought. Mr. Armstrong took as his text: Hebrews, 4th Chapter, 16th verse: "Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that wo may ob j tain mercy and find grace to help in I time of need." j Passing on from the text,which was J addressed to a people that had lately | become Christians and with whom there was always an inducement to re turn to the old faith, the speaker pro ceeded to a discussion of the soul's at I titude in prayer, which easily led up i to the subject of psychology, i It is one thing, the speaker said, to use the words of prayer and another thing to enter into the spirit of pray ! er. He took up psychology in rela | tiou to the healing power, of the soul, but went no further than to ask wheth er it is a reality. As illustrating the trend of the times he said it is signific ant that so much study should be giv en to the soul of man. It is strange, too, that so much attention should be given to the subject of sleep, a state ]in which one-third, of man's life is passed. Many sermons of the present day ate being preached on the relig j ious value ot' sleep. Much attention throughout the relig ious world is also beiug given to the psychology of prayer. This study is j active not only among religious people but also among others to whom it has j become more and more apparent that the power of prayer is a real force — just as is electricity or steaui—that certain lives are driven by it. It can and has accomplished certain great things. In act of prayer the suppliant becomes ; conscious of another and a higher self, which rises to a loftier and loftier level. In prayer a fixed idea comes to dominate the soul and thus is develop ed a tremendous power for good. Dwelling on one thought in prayer a person comes to believe it true. In this way under the dominion of a fixed idea poeple have broken the chains of vice that enslaved them and great transformations of character have been wrought. We all are conscious of having with in us an underlying realm of soul, which we do not understand. In the exercise of prayer this reservoir of un derlying power breaks through and wells up. The phenomenon is often remarkable. Whenever there is a real j and earnest prayer one becomes eon scions of a power that comes tip out of ! the depths of the soul. The speaker described certain types of old people, which are objectionable lo us. It is a matter of great moment jhe said, what wo will be like when |we grow old. Prayer may help us. It ;is plain that when a man begins to | pray '•« begins to exercise control over i his future—that lie becomes more and more the master of the future. Prayer may bo made scientific. Let a boy draw a picture of what ho would i like to he in the future and under the | dominion of that fixed idea during the years of prayer he will grow into j that very thing he aspires to be. > Mr. Armstrong left Danville sixteen I years ago after a successful pastorate ] at the Grove church. Notwithstand ing the bad walking Sunday morn ing a large number of his former par ishioners attended service. The greet ings were warm and heartfelt. Birthday Surprise Party.

Trip to Bermudas. Druggist G. Shoop Hunt and John Keim returned Friday morning from a ten days' trip to the Bermuda Is lands. The voyage out was very stormy and they both suffered some what from seasickness, otherwise they found the trip most delightful. FOUR UPSETS 111 ONE DM As the snow and ice accumulates on the streets the trolley tracks become a source of groat danger to sleighs. There wero four upsets oil Saturday. John Kime met with the first accid ent Saturday morning. Accompanied by G. H. Arms, he had just driven over from the south side. In front of the Riverviow hotel one of the sleigh runners dropped into the deep grove along side of the rail. Mr. Keim turn ed the horse slightly to one side when without a moment's warning over went the sleigh, turning nearly up side down. Mr. Keim and companion along with robes]and the seat of the sleigh were dumped out into the snow. The horse escaped but was caught near the Montour houso. An hour or so later Walter Cobb, who drives the Grand Union Tea wag on, iiad an upset on East Market street near the electric light plant. To do service in winter gthe Grand Union wagon box is runners. It is a trifle top heavy and when it struck a deep rut atjtlie trolley track it easily capsized. The driver as well as a boy accompanying him was thrown out along with'a lot'of packages contain ing tea andjooffee. The horse made no attempt to run away. During Saturday afternoon two simi lar accidents occurred near Schatz' shoe Btore'onfEast'Market street. At this point a very deep rut occurs along side the trolley track. The first to up set was a sleigh containing a woman. Along with several packages she was dumped out into the saow, but soon I regained her feet and ran after the ! horse, which she caught without much difficulty. A few minutes later a young man and woman came along in a stylish cutter. They were also dumped out into the snow. The young man was soon upon his foot, but the woman, | snugly wrapped in the robe, was help less until assistance came. The horse, [although spirited looking, made no ; attempt to run away.

A pretty question lias been raised as : to just how liiti:.; Joseph L. Townsend, elected president of the town of ! Bloomsburg la-t Tuesday, will serve and the Attorney General will probab ly have to tali" a hand in the matter. Bloomsburg has the only town form of government in Pennsylvania, it»s incorporation as such being one of the pet ideas of the late Senator Charles i{. Buckal.'W, who was a! o responsi ble for the cumulative system of vot ing there. The constitutional amendments ie eently adopted provide, for the t :in of office of oflicers of townships, bor oughs, wards and cities; but the Turn ers of the amendments overlooked the fact that the State has a " town" with in its borders, and towns are not in cluded. as they have not been in any acts of the Assembly tending to the improvement of the municipal govern ment in the State. Whether Bloomsburg's newly-elect ed president of Council, who takes up the office the first Monday in April, will serve one year, as heretofore, or whether his office will be brought within the meaning of the constitu tional amendment, and he will serve -l'mouths, remains to be determined by the Attorney General.

TO KEEP UP GAME SUPPLY To a little cotorie of Danville sports men belongs tlie credit of originating a movement to "plant" a lot of Hun garian quail in this immediate section under conditions that will insure their absolute protection for several years. The prime movers are M. 11. Sell ram, Robert Y. Gearliart and Ralph Kis ner, Esq. In the first place it hardly admits of doubt that quail have suffered greatly during the present severe winter. Large numbers have died, and it is not improbable that they will be found practically extinct in this sec tion next spring. Hence the necessity for rehabilitating the quail. In the choice of birds these times all instinc tively tnrn to the Hungarian quail, which is larger than the American quail,approximating a pheasant in size. The weather in Hungary is of about the same degree of severity as in Penn sylvania and the natural assumption would be that birds which thrive iu Hungary ought to do well here. Large numbers have already been brought over and so far as can be learned they have proven hardy and adapted to the climate. At Yanlly, this State, Hungarian quail are being propagated by private individuals for the purpose of "plant ing." The business is conducted for profit, however, and the price charg ed for the birds is simply prohibitive, namely, nine dollars per pair, j Mr. Kisner wrote to Dr. Joseph | Kalbfus, secretary of the State game commission and the reply, received j Thursday, heartily endorses the move j meut. Iu view of the high price charg ed for Hungarian {quail in tins count | ry, Dr. Kalbfus says the sportsmen of j some other states have combined and sent an agent to Hungary for the pur j pose of bringing over birds,two thous- I and or more at a time. Thus they are I able to pay expenses and supply birds j at much less cost than is charged by | the (people at Yardley. Dr. Kalbfus | commends the Danville sportsmen for J the interest they are taking in tlie i matter of supplying game and assures j them that the State game commission ! will do everything iu its power to i assist in the protection of the birds | that may be introduced. | Acting on the suggestion found in Dr. Kalbfus' letter Mr. Kisner at once wrote to a gentleman of influence ! in Hungary with whom he lias had j correspondence and who is so situated as to be of |service to the Danville sportsmen. Fnrth 1 action in the pre mises will be postponed until a reply ! from this gentleman is received. It' the quail can bo obtained the j Danville sportsmen will organize ■ themselv's into a game protective jassoeia'iou subsidiary to the State game commission. Before taking the first step several farmers, whose land I is well ;i lapted to the propagation of quail, were interested in the propo sition. The Hungarian quail will he planted on these farms, which in ad j dition to the protection due the own | er under the law will have special protection from the local game pro tective association. FIRST CLASS PRODUCTION In everything that goes to the mak j ing of a finished and artistic perform - | auce, and in the presenting of an en joyable entertainment, the ('has.

WASHINGTON LINCOLN DAK Friday was observed as Washing ton-Lincoln Day and Parents' day in the public schools of Danville. The programs rendered were appropriate and revealed the degree of interest taken in the subjeot by teachers and pupils alike. The only ones who fell short of expectations, it Beems, were the parents, who failed to turn out in anything like the numbers expected. The programs were rendered be tween two and three o'clock. Visitors began to appear at 1 o'clock. They put iu the time very pleasantly exam ining the pupils' papeis exhibited, which represented the everyday work done in the schools. No one could but be pleased with the accuracy.the tidi ness and the painstaking care revealed !by the papers. The exercises, too, ! wore of a character which could not j help but favorably impress the visitor. I The programs consisted of reoita i tions, singing, reading, &c., these- J lections all having reference to Wash t ington or Lincoln. Here and there in the lower grades two schools combin- I ed and gave the exercises in one room, iln nearly all the rooms Washington's land Lincoln's portrait were in evi dence. Iu the first ward the high school ! with its advanced work and excellent : equipment proved an additional attrac tion. The two literary societies held a joint session, the program being ap propriate to the occasion. The department of Science and Mathematics was the objective point of most visitors after the programs hail been rendered. Here Mr. A. I?. Moyer gave a practical demoustra ' tion of wireless telegraphy, using the excellent and modern apparatus in j stalled a few years ago. The department of Biology and Mathematics taught by Mr. J. 11. Gask ; ins, was quite as interesting to visit , ors. The work of the class in botany especially formed a most striking ex i li i bit. In the commercial department, , taught by Mr. Magill, the typewriting | class gave an exhibition of speed ami I general proficiency. The spectacle of iso many machines in operation at the same time proved quite a novel one. DO IT NOW Danville People Should Not Wait Until It Is Too Late. The appalling de.ith-iate from kid ney disease is due ill most cases to the fact that the little kidney troubles are usually neglected until they become serious. The slight symptoms give place to chronic disorders and the suff erer goes gradually into the grasp of diabetes, dropsy, Briglit's disease, gravel or some other serious form of kidney complaint. It' you snfYt r from backache, head aches, di"/.y spells; if the kidney se cretions are irregular ot passage and unnatural in appearance,do not delay. Help the kidneys at once.
