could drink 250 glasses of Bock beer in
three days. He did, and he is dying as
the result.
More than 30(1 acres of valuable tim
ber were destroyed near Orangeville
by a forest tire recently. Forest fires
have caused damage in many other
places in the State.
Many buildings at Washington park,
a recreation spot near Ashland, wore
destroyed by fire that started in brush
near the resort. The flames have been
entirely extinguished.
Julian Kennedy,a well-known Pitts
burg civil engineer, at a recent meet

A merger of the electric companies
in the two Stroudsburgs is expected
in the near future. The Eastern Penn- i

Joseph Howard, aged 55, maddened
by drink, on Saturday evening shot
and killed his wife at Latrobe, then
ran upstairs and shot himself through i
the heart. The man is believed to have j
been deranged mentally through a re
ceut illness. He lost his job in a brow- j
ery on Saturday and quarreled with !
his wife, following up by murdering [
her. He is said to have been drinking
heavily for a week.
Sunday was appropriately spent in j
the McKesport plants of the United I
States Steel corporation, including the j
National Tube cofnpany and the Am- |
erica Sheet and Steel works. For the !
first time in many years the plants I
were closed down, excepting in places j
were they were making repairs or do- j
ing work that was absolutely neces
sary. Every Sunday will be kept here- j
after. The men declare themselves |
pleased with the order.
An obliging resident of Suter almost
caused Frank Estep, of McKeesport.to
lose his life and precipitated an ex- |
plosion that wrecked the latter's £ISOO
automobile. The machine broke down J
and Estep crawled under it to fix j
things up. The Suter man crawled af- |
ter him and was kind enough to light
a match so that they could see. Estep
was dragged from beneath the auto ■
with his clothes ablaze as the result i
of the explosion that followed but I
standersby put out the flames before
the man was burned much. The mach
ine, however, was destroyed and the j
people in the auto went home in the j
train after telling the obliging man j
their opinion of him.
Alexander Mcßride, aged 91, who j
fought Indians and Mexicans in de- I

NEW YARDS WILL
BE IMMENSE
j Leveling farms that for years have
| supplied produce to the cities, cutting
| away Imge hills aud filling valleys,the
j Pennsylvania Railroad company is
I transforming the country adjacent, to
the little town of Northumberland in-
I to one of the largest and most com
-1 plete and modern railroad dassifica-
I tion yards in the United States.
The completion of the yard will
i greatly facilitate the movement of
| traffic through Sunbury, where four
I divisions of the company's lines now
: converge, the old yard at that place
; being found inadequate for the in
-1 crease of freight traffic. The shifting
and classifying of cars at Sunbury
have to lie done on tracks which are
! crossed at grade by a number of im
portant streets, thus preventing the
| enlargement of the present yard. The
maximum movement at Sunbury lias
been as high as 1000 cars a day.
The new yard, work on which was
started last July, will probbaly be com
pleted next December. At the present
time between 2200 and 2500 men are
employed, showing the magnitude of
the construction. It is necessary to re
move 4,000,000 cubic yards of dirt.
But little rock lias been encountered.
The construction work also involves
Is.OOO cubic yards of bridge and cul
vert masonry, the change in location
of a public road, one anil one-half
miles long, the erection of a thirty
six-stall round house, power house,
machine shop, transfer shed and some
smaller buildings.
The yard, which will cost, when com
plete in the neighborhood of $4,000, -
000 will be three miles long and one
half wide,changing a fertile and wood
ed district into one great level plain
of steel rail and yard equipment. The
yard is eighty and 100 tracks wide, of
which it contains eighty miles, the
total area covered being about TOO
acres.
It will contain a yard house with
storage for 100 locomotives, storage
room for ISO cabins, a coaling station
with'a capacity of 1000 tons a day, a
freight transfer shed 30 by (iOO feet,
cai repair siiops, a power plant for
furnishing light and air for operating
switches and testing trains, standing
capacity for 5500 cars and receiving,
classification and departure yards.
The following points of superiority
over all the other yards in the United
States are noted. Arranging engines
without turning; freight classification
and advance yard, keeping the cars
steadily in motion: arrangements
whereby cars going in opposite direc
tions may be turned so as to be placed
on receiving tracks going in correct
direction.
It said that the yard, when complet
ed next fall, will show a fill of forty
feet at its highest point, the "hump."
The object of this is to "shuffle" cars
and form solid trains for the same de
stination or trains made up as near
solid as possible.
There will be an eastern and western j
receiving yard,an eastern and western
classification yard aud an eastern and
western departure yard in the one
composite yard.
Trains will be brought into the re
ceiving yard at either end and the
road engines cut loose. The train will
then be taken in tow by a yard engine
and a crew of cutters and riders and
pushed over the hump. Each car will
be marked, and when it is cut loose
the incline from the hump will cause
it to run down grade. An operator in
the yard tower, noticing the destina
tion of the car from the mark, may,
by pushing a button, turn the right
switch by means of pneumatic pres
sure and send the car to the train
where it is desired. The system is the
most, modern known and will include ,
new wrinkles in the classification of j
cars.
That the new yard will be a boon to
Northumberland is certain. The peo- j
pie are of opinion that the town will
spring into a city. It is not known for
a certainty whether the shops will bo
moved from Sunbury to the site of the
new yards.
It is understood that a number of
industrial plants are figuring on est
ablishing at Sunbury when the remov
al of the yards across the Susquehanna
is made. At the present time the rail
road occupies a section that has grown
rapidly and the "shuffling" of cars
across the city streets will lessen the
danger that now lurks in that vicinity
for the pedestrian. The daily average
for the movement of cars at Sunbury
in 1907 totaled 2790.
Cars on Hour Shcedule.
On Friday, April Ist the Columbia
Power, Light & Railways company
will restore its hour schedule between
Danville and Bloomsburg. The com
pany annuled several trips on January
24th and on Friday these trips will
again be resumed daily, and cars will
leave Danville for Bloomsburg every
hour from (i a. m.to 11 p. m.

DANVILLE- }PA., THURSDAY. MARCH 31, 1910
PUZZLER FOR
VETERINARIANS
Veterinarians of this section are dis- j
' cussing a very curious case that de- j
' veloped under the observation of Dr. i
; J. O. Reed, of this city, which is sim- I
I ply one in which a fracture in a
! horse's leg occurred, without the us- ;
ually attendant dislocation or other I
i evidences that make the existence of a
fracture plain.
Eight weeks ago a horse belonging '
to William Mauser of Lewisburg and
employed in a lumber team on the
Aloser tract. Liberty township, this j
county, was kicked by another horse.
The animal at once developed a lame- j
ness.hut beyond this did not show any
indications of serious injury. The
horse was kicked ou the left hind leg !
between the hock and the stifle joint. |
At that spot there was a silght abras- j
ion and no swelling, whatever. The j
case proved very stubborn, however, a
peculiarity being that while on one
(lay the horse would refuse to put the
foot of the injured leg on the ground,
the next, day he would walk on it.
Dr. Reed inclined to the opinion
that the hone was fractured, although I
the absence of dislocation was hard ;
to account for. lie finally called in !
consultation with him Dr. Althonse.of
Johnstown, an agent of the State Live ;
stock Sanitary board, who shared in
the belief that a fracture of the bone |
was at the bottom of the trouble. The j
case was so remarkable, however, that ;
the usual procedure was not followed, j
The horse was permitted to live with |
the hope that the experts might prove i
to be mistaken and that the leg would !
recover.
The inevitable occurred, however; ;
just seven weeks after the horse was ;
kicked dislocation took place,showing I
that during that, long interval the !
horse had been walking on a broken 1
leg. At this juncture, of course, the j
horse was shot.
In discussing the matter Monday !
Dr. Reed explained that such cases I
are very rare, indeed. The bone, al- !
though fractured when the horse was
kicked, was held in position by the I
connective tissue investing the bone, |
which at that part of the horse's leg I
is very firm and strong.
HOME BURNED IN ANTHONY
The home of Harry Reynolds, a mile j
north of Exchange, in Anthony town
ship, burned Monday afternoon,leav
ing Mr. Reynolds, his wife and a fami- j
ly of six children homeless.
Mr. Reynolds, who is a poor,but hard ;
working and thrifty farmer,was away j
from home, employed on a farm some
distance away. His wife and children I
were spending the day at the home of !
a neighbor, within sight of their own j
home.
About three o'clock smoke was seen 1
ascending from the Reynolds house, j
By the time people had arrived to
fight the flames the home was doomed.
Nothing but a few chairs were saved. '
The fire started, it is thought, in a
flue. Mr. Reynolds carried but little
insurance.
WEDDED LAST NIGHT
Miss Mary E. Krum aud William G.
Reese were united in marriage at 8:!!0 |
o'clock last night at the parsonage of
the First Baptist church by the pastor, ,
Rev. A. J. Irey.
The contracting parties are both well ;
known and popular in this city and
vicinity where they have a large circle
of friends who wish them happiness. ! i
The bride is the daughter of Mr. and (
Mrs. Nathan Krum, Cooper township, j
The groom is the sou of Mr. and Mrs. ! |
William Reese, Front street, and lias !
for a number of years been employed i
as clerk at Roger's shoe store. Both i
are prominent in church circles. Mr. j
Reese is superintendent of the Baptist (
Sunday school and Mrs. Reese primary j ,
teacher in the Pine Street Lutheran ' :
Sunday school.
The newly wedded couple will reside
in their newly furnished home at No. i
615 East Front street.
LARGE AUDIENCE
The Rev. Dr. Koeline was greeted
bv another large and interested audi
ence at Mahoning Presbyterian church
last night. The subject of his lecture j
was '' Immortal i ty.''
Like the lectures that preceded it, it 1
was a marvel of oratory, a wonderful j
message that appealed to the heart and
intellect of every thinking man. Deep ;
as was the subject the language em- ;
ployed was simple enough for a child I
to understand, although characterized '
with all the forco of eloquence and !
conviction for which the speaker is ;
famous. Each succeeding lecture seems !
as great as the one preceding and Dr. '
Koeline is making an impression in |
Danville that time will never destroy, j
The subject of tonight's lecture will j
be "Agnosticism."
The sympathetic strike would have j
been stronger if it had never begun. 1
COMMENCEMENT
FRIDAYJAY 27
! The annual commencement of the
| Danville high school this year will he
! held on the afternoon and evening of
| Friday, May 27th, the last day of the
school term. The grammar school
I commencement will bo held on Thurs
j day, May Sflth.
' Action to the above effoct was taken
at a regular meeting of the school
' board Monday eve,on the recommenda
tion of Borough Superintendant Dief
fenbacher, who explained that it was
: necessary to fix a date for commence
ment in order that the committee
might proceed to engage a speaker and
; perfect other arrangements.
On behalf of the grammar school
j teachers the borough superintendent,
i asked that the grammar schools of the
1 borough this year be consolidated and
i permitted to hold commencement ex
! ercises jointly in the high school aud
itorium. On motion the request was
granted and the date tixed as above
1 stated.
Borough Superintendent Dieffen
i bacher also recommended that the an
nual musicale this year be held in each
of the wards instead of in the high
school auditorium as has been custom
ary in the past. The matter was duly
discussed, after which it was ordered
that Mr. Dieffenbacher's recommenda
tion be adopted.
Robert Nice and Raymond Pierce, a
committee from the senior class of the
high school,appeared before the board,
asking that the class be permitted, as
last year, to assume charge of com
mencement, taking care of the pro
ceeds, paying bills, etc. On motion
the request of the committee was
, granted. The board according to cus-
I torn donated the graduating class ten
! dollars.
On motion it was ordered that the
insurance on the school building
of the first ward "be renewed in the
same companies."
On motion it was ordered tlint the
officers of the school board sign the
applications of Misses Vernaßeed and
Laura Mann for permanent certificates,
each having complied with all the re
quirements of the law.
The following members of the board
were present: Sechler, Orth, Swarts,
Shultz, Pursel, Fischer,Gibson,Heiss,
Cole, Sidler and Redding.
Two bills were approved for pay
ment as follows:

BE PREPARED TO ANSWER
On April 15, the census enumerators
will begin their work.
Of the thirty-two questions to be
asked there an 1 some that the average
person will be unprepared to answer
off-hand. To the end, therefore, that
the enumerator bo not unnecessarily
delayed in his work all persons should
take advantage of the intervening
period to familiarize themselves with
facts so that they may be prepared to
answer promptly.
Among the questions will be the
following:
How long have you been married to
the present wife. Place of birth of per
sons enumerated? Place of birth of
person's father and mother?
By the place of birth is meant the
State or county, not, the town or city.
The year of immigration to the
United States is a question that many
will not bo prepared t»answer without
first looking the matter up. It applies
to all persons born outside of the Unit
ed States.
The law compels people to answer
all the questions correctly, to the best
of their knowledge, whether applying
to themsevles, the families to which
thoy belong and the farm or farms to
which they or their families are the
occupants. Any person over twenty
one years who shall refuse or wilfully
neglect to answer or shall give answ
ers that are false shall bo guilty of a
misdemeanor and upon conviction
shall be fined not exceeding one hun
dred dollars. **"*"
All information given to the enum
erators must be kept secret by them.
The penalty for violating this rule is
a fine of $ 10(H) or imprisonment for
two years or both.
CENTRAL EXAMINATIONS
County Superintendent C. \V. Derr
announces that the central examina
tions for eighth grade pupils will be

the scene and put him to work on the
streets.
WILL READJUST
RUft ROUTES
The post office department has de
cided to readouts the rural free deliv
ery routes of Montour County. To en
able it to proceed intelligently it has
asked the post master to supply it with
a map of Montour county.
In an endeavor to comply the post
master has discovered that there is no
sucli a thing as a map of Montour
County--at least, modern and in con
venient form—extant. The best that
could be obtained is a map of Colum
bia and Montour Counties combined
published by Cummings, in 1800. The
map—borrowed from \V. E. Ivase—is |
a most interesting relic.
As revealing how important this end !
of the big domain comprising the two j
counties was considered at that day it !
might be stated that among the pict
orial features of the map Danville is I
given more prominence than all the
other towns of the two counties com- j
bined.
Fifty years ago the Danville hotel— j
kept by John Deen, Jr.—seemed to j
have the'call and it is the most con- j
spicuous feature. The Mahoning Pres
byterian and St. Paul's Methodist Ep- j
iscopal churches were pointed to with ]
pride and they appear on the old map j
substantially as they strike the eye to- j
day or did until within a few years j
past. D. C. Hartman was a factor in
those days and his planing mill as well j
as his residence appear among the il- |
lustrations. The Rail road house kept j
by P. A. Foust is also shown. Tiie old
courthouse at Danville along with !
the courthouse at Bloomsburg, both
simple and primitive structures,appear ,
at the top of the map.
Whether the old map as it shows !
Montour county will be of any service
to the post office department admits of
some doubt. Many changes have oc- j
curred during fifty years. Farms have j
been divided and sub-divided; old j
roads have been vacated and new ones i
laid out. But little more than the an- j
cient landmarks remain.
A map of Montour county thorough- j
ly up to date is very much in demand.
One almost constantly hears inquiry
for one. If some enterprising person i
were to bring out such a map there is
no doubt but that he would reap a ;
good pecuniary reward.
SEVENTY-EIGHT DEGREES
The phenomenal weather conditions
prevailing will be remembered chiefly '
because of the discomfort they inflict.
As March draws to a close it seems
that each succeeding day brings more i
unseasonable weather. During yester
day afternoou mercury rose to TS de
grees in the shade. A dead calm pre
vailed aud winter underclothing was
a positive burden. Houses warmed
were uncomfortable and yet the sea
son has not vet arrived when firi-s may
be dispensed with.
Worst of all, however, was the dust, 1
which lay thick on the streets of town
as well as the country highways. From '
the dust, unless it rains, there seems i
to be no relief, as following custom
the street sprinkler will not be placed
into commission until the date arrives ;
when spring is regarded as here to j
stay.
To add to the oppressive conditions j
yesterday the atmosphere was filled
with a dense smoke, due no doubt to j
distant forest fires. Objects half a mile
away were rendered almost invisible. !
Last night there were indications of
showers. Almost any change would be
welcome.
A HORRIBLE DEATH
John G. Yocum, a well-known resi- I
dent of White Deer township, Union (
county, residing neai New Columbia, i
met with a horrible death Wednesday I
morning at his saw and sta\e mill. |
While operating a machine a board
caught him in such a manner as to !
throw him against the raidly revolv- j
ing circular saw. It caught him just !
below the breast and almost cut him j
in two.
Notwithstanding this horrible in- j
jury he lived for an hour after the ac- |
cident.
Mr. Yocum was about forty-five j
years of age and was a most prominent
and influential citizen in his locality
and was prosperous in business. He is !
survived by his widow and two sons, j
ADJUDGED INSANE
An inquisition was held at the court
house yesterday morning at 10 o'clock I
before Hon. L. W. Welliver, one of !
the judges of the court of common j
pleas, in pursuance of an order of j
court to inquire concerning the lunacy
of Agnes Lynn upon the oath and 1
affirmations of John Mong, Robert
Farley, John Hixson, John Mitchell,
D. C. Jones ami D. C. Williams, im
panelled from among the jurors at
tending court this month.
The jury found that the said Agues
Lynn was at the time of taking the
inquisition a lunatic without lucid
intervals and by reason of said lunacy
is incapable of managing her estate.
EDWARD EARNEST
CAUSE OF COURT
j Edward Earnest, a well known half
! witted character, was the cause of a
I half day's session of court at Blooms
| burg Tuesday. The matter at issue
was whether Edward should Vie fed,
clothed and housed by West Hemlock
townlisip, this county, or by Madison
township, Columbia county. It was a
hearing on an appeal from an order of
| removal of Earnest from Madison to
j West Hemlock, which was allowed by
'Squire Clem K. Weiss, after Earnest
had been committed, June 15, 1909,
and brought to the hospital for the in
sane here, where he is now incarcerat
ed. After the hearing the court took
; the matter under advisement for a
j future decision.
W. C. Johnston and Fred Ikeler, of
Bloomsburg, represented Madison
; township, and W. Kase West, of this
place, was the attorney for the West
Hemlock poor district.
The witnesses brought by Madison
township testified that Edward was
j born in West Hemlock township, and
j lived there more or less all his life,
where he was employed as a farm
hand.
! On the other hand it was shown that
| in 1890-97 anil 1898, and at various
| times since that he has been employed
j in Madison township. It was the evid
| ent attempt of West Hemlock to prove
; that Edward had gained a residence
jin Madison, and vice versa. The wit
| nesses called were: Peter S. Brugler,
Mrs. Alice Wilson, Mrs. Elijah Crom
ley, D. A. Sliultz, T. ,T. Betz, Arthur
Reichart, Mrs. Margaret Betz and a
! number of others.
' From a legal standpoint the case was
i hard fought and there were a number
of tilts between cousnel about the ad
mission of evidence.
