SERMONS ON
TUBERCULOSIS
"Tuberculosis" Sunday was general
ly observed by the pastors of the
churches of Danville yesterday. The
Rev. Joseph E. Guy, the Rev. Jules
Foiu.the Rev. A. J. Irev and the Rev.
Edward Haughton,among others went
into the subject extendedly Sunday
morning. The Rev. James Wollaston
Kirk, who is preaching a series of ser
mons, touched upon tuberculosis Sun
day, but took up the subject in
a more extended manner on Wednes
day evening. The Rev. Charles Cam
eron Snavely, the Rev. Samuel Fox,
the Rev. George S. Womer.Rev. J. H.
Musselmnn, Rev. J. L. Yonce among
others all took up the subject, calling
attention to the dangers of the white
plague and giving methods tor prevent
ing its spread.
The heavy rain kept down the at
tendance at the churches somewhat,
which is to be especially regretted,
considering the nature of the servioes.
Another circumstance, which militat
ed against the full success of the day
lav in the fact that comparatively few
of our ministers had received a com
munication from the National associa
tion for the Study and Prevention of
Tuberculosis setting forth just what
was expected of the pulpit, and these
ministers, accordingly had to depend
upon meagre facts gleaned from the
public prints. Thus they were not
fully prepared yesterday. Another
year, if Tuberculosis Sunday becomes
permanent, every minister in Danville
will be in the front ranks in the ob
servance of the day.
The crusade against the White Plague
becomes a very appropriate Gospel
theme. The Rev. Joseph E. Guy of
"Shiloh Reformed churchf took as his
text, Third Epistle of St. John, 2nd
verse: "Beloved, I wish above all
things that thou may prosper and be
in health even as thy soul prosperith."
Mr. Guy dwelt upon the nature of
tuberculosis,predisposing and immedi
ate causes, early symptoms, treatment,
cure and prevention. In conclusion
he expressed the opinion that should
the society be as successful during the
next quarter of a century as it has
been during the last five years a per
son would almost be censurable for
having tuberculosis.
Services at Christ Episcopal church
also slvowed that the campaign against
tuberculosis lends itself very conveni
ently to treatment in a sermon. The
Rev. Edward Haughton took as his
text. Acts 5—15: "They broght forth
the sick in every street and laid them
ou beds and couches that at least the
shadow of Peter passing by might ov
ershadow some of them."
Taking tip the subject of "Tubercu
losis Sunday," its work and observ
ance, Mr. Haughton proceeded to con
sider Christ's practice of healing the
sick and the miracles performed in
connection with the healing; his com
mand to the disciples and their prac
tice ; the historic and present relation
of Christianity, the church and the
Christian ministry to the sick, pray
ers, etc. The Christian religion and
the church was tho foster mother cf
medical science, nursing, sanitation
and hygiene and the care and cure of
the unfortunato. The hospital as we
know it is a direct result of Christian
iufluence. The purpose of it all is to
save and uplift the whole man and
cure the ills to which the flesh is heir;
for Christ came in the flesh. There is
no single good or benefit in which the
church and church people should not
be concerned. St. l'aul said: "The
body is the temple ot the Holy Ghost. "
Mr. Haughton stated that prior to
tiie crusade fourteen per cent, of all
the deaths in Danville wore duo to
tuberculosis, whereas in 1908, the last
year lor winch <> lupuiii is avaiiaoie,
but seven per cent, of all the deaths
were duo to that disease. He stated al
so that in Danville the predisposing
causes in the greatost number of cases
were fouud to be a weakened physical
condition uuo 10 uiuuneuucss, glut
tony and sexual immorality.

THE FIRST BARN
PREY TO FLAMES
George Krajzol.a foreinger wlio pur
chased the late Thomas Mensch farm,
about a mile from Roaring Creek sta
tiou, is the victim of the first light
ning fire in this vicinity daring the
present year.
The barn was stiuck about 7:30
o'clock Saturday evening, during the
early part of the first heavy shower.
The family found the whole roof of
the big structure bursting into a blaze
almost at the instant the lightning
Struck, and it was at once evident that
all efforts to save the building would
be futile. The efforts of tlie family
and neighbors were therefore, devoted
to saving the stock and preventing the
flames from spreading to the house.
Mr. Krajzel's son took from the burn
ing building some valuable horses and
mules and then reached the limit of
his endurance. It was at this point
that the heroism of Mrs. Krajzel, an
aged woman, was shown. At the risk
of her life she dashed into the blazing
barn and rescued 10 head of cattle.
The only livestock burned was a
calf and abont 40 chickens. A binder,
a new drill, 4 wagons, 50 bushels of
wheat, 50 bushels of oats and 100
bushels of corn were burned.
During the fire tlfe wind was blow
ing in the direction of the house, and
it is probably due to the fact that the
house is covered by a slate roof that it.
was not also bnrned.
The barn burned was one of the
largest in this vicinity. About a year
ago Mr. Krajzel built an addition to
the barn and a straw shed. His loss,
which is heavy, is partly covered by
insurance carried in the Locust &
Franklin Township Mutual Insurance
company.

DANVILLE MEN
ARE ACTIVE
That our former residents are attain
ing positions of prestige is attested to
by the number of Danville men prom
inently identified with the numerous
undertakings 6t Holy Trinity Brother
hood Gymnasium association of Phil
adelphia.
The ofagnlzatlon is the outgrowth
of the Bible Class taught by A. J.
Drexel Biddle, the millionaire philan
thropic worker and society leader, and
one of the most noted authorities on
athletic qnstions in the United States,
having made several world tours in
the interests of manly sport and pos
sessing an intimate working knowl
edge of every feasible system of in

son, former director of athletics in the
Elkton, Maryland, high school, as
sisted by G. Alvin Spaide, sui>ervising
aide and H. Ambrose Robinson, drill
master. Mr. Robinson assumed his
position on Janaury Ist last and the
remarkable success of the annual ex
hibition given on Friday evening is
clearly the work of his master hand
and well merited the commendation of
the United States governmental offici
als who judged the various competi
tions.
The phenomenal work of the basket
ball team organized during the past
winter, under the direotion of its able
captain, G. Alvin Spaide attracted the
attention of the sporting populace of
Philadelphia. Mr. Spaide is support

literated since taking charge last Oct
ober.

MANY FARMERS CAUGHT
About a hundred farmers in this sec
tion are sadder and wiser now than
they were a year ago, after a dear ex
perience in live stock insurance.
It seems that about a year ago au
insurance agent wont through the
county placing insurance at many of
the farms near here on the live stock.
The farmers paid a quarterly premium
or more in advance. Indue time they
received^.heir policies. After the in
surance had been carried a short time
most of them allowd it to drop. They
thought nothing more of it until re
cently when they received notice from
the company to pay up their back pre
miums which were almost a year in
arrears. They protested on tho ground
that they did not desire insurance any
more and had decided to give it. up.
They then learned that in the fine
print of their application for insurance
on their stockjthey agreed to have all
the premiums paid in full before they
notified the companyjthat they intend-
drop it. Few of them read the
application which they signed. They
expected that when they stopped pay
ing, that they would stop receiving
insurance. They now discover that
unless they pay the premium for the
timo which they thought their stock
uot insured at all,they will have trou
ble, especially if they have any prop
erty to be levied on. The amount for
which the farmers are'caught varies
from S2O to SSO. Most Jof them are
highly indignant, but oan see no way
out of the difficulty but to pay the
premiums.

Outfielder Charles Mitchell, of Luz-

! was by far the best player on the
| Shinny team last season. This year he
I lias been playing with the Bingliamton
j New York State league team. The
i Bingliamton Press, speaking of his
; playing in a recent game, says:
"Mitchell in loft field proved to the
satisfaction of the fans present that he
is fast on his feet. His catch of a fly
on the run in the eighth caught the
crowd. And in the fourth inning when
he stole second and third he further
showed his ability. It is not expected
that he will be retained as the coming
of Cook will give Binghamton an out
field as good as any in the league.
Mitchell will probably be farmed out
with a string attached to him. Anoth
er season ought to make him ripe for
New York State league ball. "

THE MOVEMENT
IS POPULAR
The Organized Adult Bible claBS
movement set on foot by the Inter
national Sunday School association is
meeting with popular support in Dan
ville. ftideed there fs scarcely a Church
but lias seen the advantages of class
organization and has fallen in with
th'«* ifaiSVeftWhf. "
Sinoe the State convention in Octo
ber when the importance of this great
world movement for Christian Con
quest was first brought home to our
people no less than six of our leadiug
churches have organized adult Bible
classes. From a Bmall beginning the
number lias grown rapidly. At present
the Organized Adult Bible class of St.
Paul's Methodist Episcopal church has
sixty-nine members; of the Mahoning
Presbyterian church, fifty members;
of Trinity Methodist Episcopal church
fifty members; of the First Baptist
church, forty members; of Trinity
Lutheran church, thirty-five members.
The Pine Street Lutheran church has
three organized Adult Bible classes—
ono for women,containing thirty mem
bers, and two for men, with a mem
bership respectively of forty-four and
forty-five. In the Sunday school of the
Shiloh Reformed church there always
has been ah organized Adult Bible
I class,the membership at present reach
ing thirty. Other churches not men
tioned above are in the movement and
are organizing Adult Bible classes.
Each of the above classes consists of
i members who are sixteen years of age
|or over. The "organized" class gives
! each of its members a voice in the
class management and activities. Each
member is given something definite to
do. Its ideal is "every member at
work." It holds the boys and girls to
the Sunday school at a time when they
| are so easily lost from its membership,
j The object is to build up the Sunday
J schools, to increase the attendance,
bringing in the grown persons along
fwith the children. Each member every
' Sunday aims to bring in as many new
i members as possible; there is a friend
; ly rivalry among the members to see
| who can accomplish the most. Natur
| ally, under such circumstances, enthu
j siasui runs high and rapid increase in
membership is the logical sequence.
The world's sixth Sunday school
convention will be held at Washing
ton, D. C., May 19-24, when the aim
is to seoure two thousand men from
Pennsylvania to take part in the great
Adult Bible Class demonstration.

DUG UP SKELETON
The skeleton of a man, probably a
six-footer, was unearthed Sunday while '
employes of the Philadelphia & Read-;
ing were digging a irencli to make a
connection for water service at the j
new Reading station at Catawissa. It
was found abouii three foot beneath the
surface and at a point beneath the i
tracks where at one time the old coal
dock stood.
The body was lying oast and west,
when found and all the bones of the
body woid iiioie. How it i aiue 10 be in
that location is a question that has
since aroused considerable agitation in
Catawissa.
The finding of the body was the oc
casion for a number of youngsters
stealing the teeth for souvenirs while
one of the workmen, in an effort to
demonstrate what a wonderfully brave
man he was, filled the skull with wat
er and then drained the contents. No
disposition has yet been mado of the
body.

PENN'A FOREST
RESERVATIONS
The remarkable work that is being
done in Pennsylvania under the plans
adopted by the department of forestry
is shown by the fact that at the be
ginning of the present year the State
owned nearly 917,000 acres.
The forestry reservations are dis
tributed through twenty-six counties,
by far the greater portion of the land
being in the Susquohanna valley. Pot
ter county with 117,937 ao*es has a
greater area of such reservations than
any other oounty.but Clinton is a very
close second with 117,819 acres. Wy
oming county has the least of all with
1,176 acres.
j Not all of the forestry reservations
i are forest land, strictly (speaking, for
| somo of the ground lias been burned
; over so frequently that it is bare of
| timber. All of the ground is naturally
I forest land, however, and well adapt
ed to such purposes, and where bare
| acres exsist they are being reforested
i as speedily as possible.
It is for this work that the depart
: ment of forestry maintains three nurs-
J eries—one at Mont Alto, Franklin
j county; one at Greenwood, Hunting
| don county, and one at Asaph, Tioga
j county—all located on forestry reserv
; ations. The nurseries are devoted to
j raising young forest trees, both con
| ifers and hardwoods,for restocking the
| forestry reservations,and also for sell
ing at cost to those who wish to ac
j complish private reforestation. Trees
i are sold, of course,only when the sup-
J ply at the nurseries exceeds the de
mands of the State reservations thorn
j selves.
Several million young trees are now
j being planted upon the State forestry
; reservatinos by Commissioner Con -
| klin's men, and the report of the ac
i tivities for the present year will show
in all probability, that it lias been one
jof the most progressive years in the
| history of the department.

HOLLOBAUGH MAY LIVE
The physicians at the Mary M. Pack
er hospital in Sunbury last evening
stated that there is now |a slight hope
that Earl Hollobaugh.of this city,who
was injured by a freight train on the
Reading railroad near Milton on Mon
day, may recover.
! The physicians who have examined
| the caso consider the tenacity with
which the boy clings to life as remark
> able, in view of the critical nature of
i his injuries. The fact that he has liv
ed this long is,in itself,considered on
couraging. Yesterday Hollobangh was
fully conscious for the first time since
the accident. He recognized his moth
er and his brother and spoke a few
words to them.
TOWN DESTROYED
SALONICA, April 27. j
Five hundred Albanians, mostly wo
men and children, weie killed in the
I Turkish bombardment of Godantz, ac
cording to dispatches from Godantz
j today. The town was practically de-
I stroved. The government is today has
tening tho mobilization of 00,000
troops to be rushed to Albania to sup
press tho rebellion that has thus far
gone against the 30,W0 soldiers now
| in the field. One thousand soldiers and
rebels were killed in a battle at Stim
lja ami 200 in a fight at Tcheruolava
Pa«*. Several thousand were injured
in these engagements. The facilities
for caring for the injured, are wholly
inadequate and hundreds are dying
from lack of attention.
The uniform success of the Alban
ians has caused a revulsion of feeling
against Cheftek Pasha, the minister
of war, who is at the head of the gov
ernment soldiers and his recall is being
demanded. There were rumors today
that Abdul Hamid is a victim of apo
plexy in his Salonika piison and that
his condition is serious.
Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Townsend, of
Goushohocken, recently celebrated
their fiftieth wedding anniversary.
The celebration was fiade all the more
pleasant by the fact that during that
time there has not been a death in
their own or the families of their
three children.
WILL OPEN IS
THURSDAY NIGH
The bids invited for paving near!
five squares of East Market street wi
be opened at a special meeting of tli
borough couucil on Thursday nigin
Whether the contract will be awarde
at that meeting or not is uncertain.
The section to be paved vztcnds east
ward from Pine street to (look's court
There seems to be little doubt huttha
the work will go forward at onoe
Should the bids be considered exorbit
ant the borough will proceed to do tli
paving itself.
The State, it appears, is unwilJinj
to assist in paving East Market stree
or even to take any part in its recon
structlon except on the extension be
tween Foust street and the hospita
macadam, a distance of IHOO feet. Tli
latter section it will proceed tomaca
(lam in the very near future.
The distance between Foust stree
and Cook's court, the eastern end o
the paving for which bids are invited
is put down as 1500 feet. This sectioi
the State highway department wil
have nothing to do with at present
Macadam there is not desired and i
paving is put down at all it will liavi
to be done by the borough, the prop
erty owners and the trolley company
acting in conjunction.
Under the circumstances it does noi
seem likely that East Market street be
tween Cook's court and Foust street
will bo reconstructed the present year
badly as it needs repairs.
A HARD STRUGGLE
Many a Danville Citizen Findi the Strug
gle Hard.
With a back constantly aching,
With distressing urinary disorders,
Daily existeuce is but a struggle.
No need to keep it up.
Doan's Kidney Pills will cure you.
Danville people endorse this claim :
Robert G. Miller, 315 Ferry Street,
Danville, Pa., says: 'I am so grate
ful for what Doau's Kidney Pills have
done for me that I never ceaso prais
ing them. Ten years ago I was almost
an invalid and I could only hobble
about with a great effort. The pains
in my back were often so severe that
I could not stand. I believed that this
suffering was caused by the hardships
I endured when in the Civil War.
There was a weakness across my loins
and I had sharp stitches in my back
which showed the presence of too
much uric acid in my system. I used
plasters and liniments* but they did
not help me and gradually my condi
tion grew woise. An annoying kidney
and bladder weakness set in and I be
came nervous and fretful. The doctors
did not help me much and one physi
cian told mo that I was on the verge
of Bright's disease. My sou, who was
a druggist, finally brought home a box
of Doan's Kidney Pills and I began
their use. Soon I improved and from
that time on I was in good health. I
shall always be a friend to Doan's
Kidney Pills in return for all they
have clone for me. "

in February 1909 and confirmed it in
