PASSENGERS AR~T SADLY SHAKEN UP Passengers on the Pennsylvania pass euger train that leaves Soutli Danville at 12:10 Tuesday afternoon received a shaking up, whioh gives them a pretty fair idea of what a railroad wreck is like. The mishap, although hardly a wreck, was attended with effects only a little loss tragical. Nothing occurreil until the train reached Sunburv. If hail slowed down anil the passengers every moment were expecting that it would stop. Some hail arisen anil standing in the aisles were putting on their overcoats; oth ers remaind seated ami unsuspecting of danger were chatting good-natured ly. All of a sudden there was a violent jar as though caused by a collision. Thou occurred the very tiling that is bound to happen when a body in mo tion comes in contact with another boily in rest. Passengers turned somer saults in the aisles. Benjamin Rosen stein of this city took a header through the open door of the coacli and saved himself from going headfirst into the baggage ear by grasping the brake wheel on the platform of the latter. The effect of the shock was sucli as to throw everybody forward, in many instances causing them to strike their foreheads or faces on the backs of tlie seats in front of them. Some were thrown completely over the seats. Among the passengers the worst in jured of all, probably, was the Rev. A. J. Irey, pastor of the First Baptist church, of this city, who hail a tooth knocked loose and was very painfully cut about the mouth. Attorney Wil liam Kase West was also on the train and sustained a bad bruise just above the eve. He was unable .to transact West says that in all at least thirty five persons were injured in some de gree. The accident, it appears, was caused by a failure of the air brake to operate properly. The engineer was unable to stop the train and it ran against the "bumpers" erected at the end of the track near the station where the train stops. The speed was considerably re duced, but the .-hock of the impact as demonstrated by the results was quite severe. THE ONLY WAY Many Danville Citizens Have Discovered It.

SYMPTOMS OF TUBERCULOSIS The fine herd of blooded cattle at the hospital for the insane last week was subjected to the regular semi-an nual inspection. Twelve out of a herd of one hundred and twenty head have been found infected. The inspection was conducted by Veterinarian J. O. Reed,the tuberculin test being applied. The infected cattle will be shipped to Scianton today where they will be disposed of by the federal inspector. The result shows how essential it is that cattle be regularly inspected at short intervals, if the public is to be properly safeguarded. The tuberculin test is based on the latest scientific discoveries and is considered infalli ble. To illustrate how prone cattle are to become infected with tuberculosis it might he stated that among the twelve head condemned were two which stood the test four months ago. They belong ed to a herd of twenty-five cattle, which was purchased at Auburn, N. Y., in the latter part of November. These cattle were all inspected in the presence of Howard B. Schultz, stew ard of the hospital for the insane,by a representative of the Pennsylvania Live Stock Sanitary board, the tuber culin used also coming from Pennsyl vania. The twenty-five head showed up sound at that time. Good health is impossible when there is any derangement of the di gestive organs.

The j high voltage current came into Dau i ville for the first time at 6 o'clock Sun day eve and during the night was em j ployed by the company in furnishing 1 light to its customers, j The Columbia Light, Power and i j Railways company did not expect to i j utilize the Harwood current until Wed ■ ! nesday, but owing to a breakdown on j the system it was necessary to change r ; its plans. One of the coils in the gen i erator of the Columbia and Montour - | power house burned out Saturday, t] which threw that entire division out s j of service. With difficulty the schedule - j between Danville and Blooms burg was 3 j maintained, by utilizing the current ! generated at the Standard Electric 1 Light plant to take the cars all the j way to Bloomsburg instead of only as far as Qrovania as was formerly done, j It was impracticable to think of re- [ ; pairing the generator within several j ( days; meanwhile no cars could be op j crated between Bloomsburg and Ber- j ! wick and the Danville plant would be I seriously overtaxed. It was to meet I I the unforeseen exigency that, the Col ' umbia Light, Power and Railways 1 ! company decided to bring the high i I tension current over from Harwood j I forthwith. A preliminary experiment was made i j about 12 o'clock Saturday night. It [ | was not until i) o'clock Sunday j j morning that the high voltage current | | was brought over and harnessed to the i ! Columbia, and Montour division. All day Sunday and Sunday night the cars between Bloomsburg and Berwick were i operated by the Harwood current. To ' bo explicit it should be said that the Harwood current operates a motor, which in turn operates the generator that furnishes current for the railway. The same thing will take place at Danville, although for a short time, the generators furnishing current, to the Danville and Bloomsburg line and t | Danville and Sunbury Transit com- I j pany will be operated by steam the | same as in the past and the Harwood I current will bo utilized at night only !to supply commercial light. George j M.West, superintendent of the Stand | ard Electric Light plant, Sunday stated that it would probably be a month before steam would be displac ed at this end of the line and the high tension or Harwood current employed exclusively. In a week the powei j house at Grovania will be dismantled 112 | and some of the machinery will be : brought to Danville and installed in * the Standard Electric Light plant. Probably few people were aware of s what l>«<* Hm TT..fi.rrwi.l current of 23,000 volts flashed over the long line into Danville Sunday eve. I The high voltage adds an element of j danger about the plant and conspien ' ons notices are posted, warning peo ' pie to " keep hands off." In order to ' | insure safety the transmission wire is 1 j carried over the P. & R. and D. L. & r W. railroads at a height of respect ive 'jly 43 and 50 feet. The wire is carried : over the river at Berwick a hundred j feet above low water by means of tow . era—one on each shore.

HE-ELECT BASE BALL MANAGERS The Danville Athletic association held an important meeting Friday even ing in the office of Ralph Kisner,Esq., and laid definite plans for tlie part t his town will take in the Susquehanna league season of ISIIO. Present at the meeting were President T. J. Price, Vice President \V. G. Pursel, Secre tary Ralph Ivisner, Treasurer Harry Ellenbogen, Directors James Ryan, Thomas G. Vincent, W. J. Rogers and Robert Pursel. Probably the most important action of the meeting was the re-election of i Simon K. Hoffman and Arthur J. Law- < j renco as manager and assistant man- J ager, respectively. i The board also authorized another 1 ' year's membership in the Susquehanna i i league. i I The managers were authorized to at < 1 once secure players, give them try outs , I and sign a team. In this connection it might be said that it is very gratify- i ' ing to the directors to know that near- i I ly all of last year's team have express- i ■ed a willingness to affiliate with the j Danville team this year. The popular- i I ity of Danville as a base ball town is ; also shown by the numerous requests from all sections asking for a chance on the local club. Very little difficulty | is anticipated in securing a list of first ; class players. A committee, composed of Puisel, i Kisner and Rogers, was appointed to adopt a financial system and formulate i contracts for advertising on the ball j park fence.

BIG NEW GOAL BREAKER BURNS WILKES-BARRE, March 23. Oue of the newest and largest break ers in the anthracite coal region was destroyed by lire early this morning when the Mineral Spring structure, owned and operated by the Lehigh Valley Coal company, was burned to the ground. The loss in a direct charge is about *250,000. But the Valley lias a big shipment ahead of it and the de struction of the breaker will entail damages far in excess of this. Over a thousand men and boys are thrown out of employment. The origin of the lire is unknown. In the breaker at the time were 500 tons of prepared coal and under the chutes were five big'railroad cars loaded for market,all of which were destroyed. Several mules were suffocated at the bottom of the pit. Several workmen were re pairing the structure last night and it is thought that they ignited the oily timber in some manner as yet un determined. Today the Lehigh Valley company had men on the sceno pre paring to clean up and immediately be gin the reconstruction of the breaker. Can You Believe Your Senses ?
