To Have New Home.
The Ilarrisburg Elks are to have a
new $35,000 home on the site of their
present home, 210 North Second street,
to occupy the entire plot from Second
street to the small alley in the rear.
Thursday evening the building com
mittee met and discussed the matter
and decided that matters were in such
shape at present as justified them in
selecting an architect to prepare plans.
Lost 100 Quarts of Milk.
For the third time this year Richard
Fruit, of Hemlock township, who
serves milk in Bloomsburg, had his
wagon upset Monday. H- lost 100
quarts of milk this time and had his
wagon broken. The accident happened
on the road following Fishing Creek
and leading to Bloomsburg. It was
caused by a "nut" which holds the
wheel in place, working loose, and al
lowing the wheel to come off.. The
owner was unhurt.
Protest Against Tax.
The Patriotic Order Sons of Am
orica, of the State are protesting
against the State law that provides for
the payment of a tax on investments
of fraternal and benevolent societies;
petitioning the legislature to amend
the act so as to eliminate such so
cieties aud calling upon similar organ
izations to aid in the matter.

FINAL THAW
IS IN PROGRESS
A new phase of this long anil old
fashioned winter has presented itself.
What appears to be the final thaw of
the season is now in progress.
The first inroads were made on tho
ice during the early part of last week.
A sudden drop in temperature congeal
ed everything in sight aud there was
no more melting until Sunday, since
when the ice and snow have been van
ishing at a rapid rate. The patches of
baro grounil that have appeared,
whether on the hillside, on streot or
highway.are a welcome and refreshing
sight to the eye, weary with the monot
ony of the all-encompassing ice and
snow, that have blanketed tho earth
for over two months.
Tho present winter will not be soon
forgotten. We have had sleighing con
tinuously for sixty-six days, which is
in itself an unusual record. The ac
cumulation of ice is another feature
that has made the winter unique. In
stead of suow banks we have had
mounds of ice on the streets. If is this
feature,the prevalence of ice, that has
enabled winter to maintain its su
i premacy, even under the effect of the
lengthening days.
Sleighs are likely to remain in com
, I mission a few days longer, although
| wheeled vehicles have made their ap
; | pearance in considerable numbers and
nr ■ probably preferable for long drives
i where all kinds of roads are apt to be
. | encountered.
In le.-s than three weeks we will
reach the vernal equinox, when win
, ter should end its reign and gentle
spring hold sway. Here, however, is
where the weather prophet asserts
. himself. There are early springs and
, late springs.
, Tho preponderance of opinion among
[ weather-wise people seems to be to
the effect that we may have an early
spring this year—due to the long and
continuous winter,during which there
. was only one semblance to a general
. thaw. Some of these hopeful ones ex
-5 peer to hear the iobins sing before
long. A more pessimistic view, how
ever,sees the probability of more suow
during March, if not in April. Still
the fact remains that winter is about
over.

SOLICITS AID
OF CLERGY
Dr. Joseph Kalbf us, secretary of the

minister iu Pennsylvania a tract on
same and wild bird protection,solicit
ing the aid of the clergy of the State
in behalf of the game birds.
In calling attention to the needs of
the quail Secretary Kalbfns says:
"Just a little shelter, only a little
good, for poor Bob White in the time
of his need will snrely bring its re
ward. He is ever ready to earn his
living, and has worked for you all
spring, all summer and all fall, and
now, because the ground is covered
with snow he is compelled to turn to
you, not as a beggar, but as a laborer
■ truly worthy of hire. He asks for a
little pay for sevices rendered, and to
be rendered and calls attention to
what ho did this year as evidence of
, what he will do next year. Put your
self in liis place and think of what
winter menus to him. You know the
usual course; snow, varying in depth
I for several weeks, then, frequently a
j cold rain, followed by drifting snow
lor by zero weather. The snows have
I shortened Bob's food supply and re-
[ 1 duced his vitality, so that when the
rains begin ho does not feel disposed
I to venture out, even though his stom
.l acli is nearly empty, but instead sits
i huddled with his friends, in some
I point of shelter until the lirst day is
i passed, anil then, on the second day,
! driven by increasing hunger, lie faces
the storm, securing no more food per
haps than before the rain began and
then with every feather dripping,
chilled to the bone, with an empty
stomach, and still more greatly reduc
ed vitality,he huddles with 11is family
1 for the last time, to die, to freeze, or
' to be smothered by the drifting snows.
' You are big and strong and need no
one to defend you; tho birds have no
' protection except in speedy flight.
You are perhaps wasting every hour
' | more than enough to keep poor Bob
' and his entire family iu food the year
i round.

BROKEN AXLE
CAUSES WRECK
By a broken axle on the P. & R.
railway, Saturday morning, a freight
wreck was caused, which tore up the
track for a large section south of the
Bloom street crossing, blocked the road
for a couple of hours, holding up the
11:28 passenger train and necessitating
a transfer of passengers.
The accident occurred about ten
o'clock, as through freight No. 82 was
passing southward. Just as one of the
cars in the rear part of the train,load
ed with soft coal, had passed over the
crossing the axle broke. At this mo
ment several things happened. The
train broke in two, the first section
running on toward the station. The
rear section was propelled by a loco
motive in the rear. The engineer of the
pusher was unaware of the accident
and applying steam sent the cars ahead
at the usual rate of speed.
When the iron axle snapped in two,
one of the broken ends dropped on the
track, the wheels attached at the same
moment swinging in under the car.
Thus as the cars were pushed along
the track was torn up for nearly a j
hundred yards, the bolts that held the j
rails being wrested loose and the heavy !
ties at places being cut nearly in two j
by the jagged end of the broken axle
as it ploughed along the ground.
As soon as possible the eugiueer of
the pusher was notilied of what had j
occurred and ho stopped the train. By
that time the car with the broken axle
and the one next to it were off the 1
track. That neither of the cars went
down over the embankment, which
at that point is rather high, is very !
lucky. The wrecking car was called
out from Catawissa.
Before the track was cleared the j
11:23 passenger train, south, arrived, i
( All arrangements, however, had been
made for transferring passengers. The '
, "annex" train, used between Rupert
aud Bloomsburg, was run down to the
. scene of the wreck, meeting the reg
ular passenger train. During the ab
sence of the annex a locomotive and
caboose were pressed into service to ]
t handle passengers between Bloomsburg
and Rupert.
The wreckage was cleared away be
. fore one o'clock, but it was a couple
, of hours later before the track was
. fully repaired.
UNDER NEW GUARANTEE
Danville merchants are beginning to
| get shipments of goods made under the
| new guarantee required by the depart
,! meat of agriculture under the provis
j ions of the pure food law of 1901!.
This act requires each manufacturer
! who puts out a food product or drug
I to have a guarantee filed with the de
-1 part lie 'lit at Washington. Then they
were given a serial number. The labels
,on package read "Guaranteed under
; the pure food act of Jnno :iO, I'.HXi,"
, and were considered misleading,
j So the new law has changed aud the
, labels must now read, "Guaranteed
! by (name of manufacturer under the
. pure food law of June 30, I'.iOH").
Thus the amended law makes the label
i say just what is meant, that the gov
ernment does not guarantee that the
1 product is pure, but that the manu
facturer states that it has been made
'accenting to his guarantee.
. This act has been in force for some
time, hut the new product has been
slow ill leaching Danville.

| BOROUGH AFIER
IDE MILKMEN
j The controversy and contention bo
j tween the local hoard of health and
the dairymen doing business in Dan
i villn over the question of milk license
seems to have reached an acute stage.
' Civil action to compel payment of li
cense Friday was instituted against
two dairymen.
Action for breach of borough ordi
nance was brought pursuant to in
structions from the borough council.
Action was taken at the meeting of
- January 21st, the board of health be
f ing authorized to make the necessary
» investigations and to collect the an-
J nual milk license according to the
, provision of the borough ordinance.
■> In an interview Friday Dr.
s Shultz, secretary of the local board
- j of health,stated that no attempt would
i bo made to collect license from those
j dairymen who can prove that they sell
- milk of their own production only.
. j Others, who add to their own supply
ej by purchasing milk from other par
s ties will be obliged to ]iay a license,
a j Section lof the rules and regulations
r[ at present in force provides that no
j person, firm, or corporation shall sell
I ; cream or milk in the borough of Dan
d ville without first annually, before
d the first day of March, making appli
- .cation to the hoard of health , which
s application shall set forth the name
II and route of the dairymen, the
owner of and locution of the dairies
and such other information relating
y; to the production and care of cream
- and milk as may he deemed necessary
by the board of health. In addition to
" making said application, which is to
• . constitute an agreement for faithful
e compliance, the dairymen are requir
-0 ed to obtain from the board of health
'■ a license to carry on the business,
which license shall be displayed in
• every wagon from which milk and
11 : cream is sold, the fee for said license
11 to be $lO per annum. Dr. Shultz ex-
Li plained that dairymen who do not
purchase milk will bo presented free
of cost- with a license that will permit
them to carry on their business,

g tuted is fully shown by the informa
