GRAND JURORS'
RECOMMENDATIONS
The grand jury has taken cogniz
ance of the slippery condition of the
driveway of the bridge and iu its ro
port has made a recommendation,
which will probably be carried out. at
as early a date as possible.
Iu making the usual tour of the pub
lic buildings, &c. ,the grand jurors ex
amined the river bridge aud state that
they found it in good repair. The slip
pery condition of tho paving blocks,
in time of rain, however, which has
already caused the loss of a couple of
horses,they consider a nuisance which
should bo abated, if possible.
The granil jury recommends that a
section of the driveway be covered
with asphaltum as au experiment aud
that, if the asphaltum can not be ap
plied to the wooden blocks, then a sec
tion of the paving be removed and on
that part a floor ot asphaltum be laid.
A contractor, practical bridge build
er, at present in Danville, Tuesday
stated that in his opinion it might be
well worth while to try the experi
ment, as during seasons when there is
no freezing, horses are not apt to slip
on asphaltum. During the winter when
horses are shod rough the danger of
falling is reduced to a minimum no
matter what kind of paving is employ
ed.
Rolating to the retaining wall west
of the approach to the river bridge the
-grand jurors also went on record in
imperative aud pointed terms,not only
recommending but "urging'' that the
commissioners build the county's share
of the retaining wall between the abut
ment of the bridge aud the wall al
ready built.
The grand jurors report that they
find the public buildiugs in good con
dition. They reoommend that electric
-lights be installed in the jail and that
the building be painted on the out
side. They recommend also that the
sheriff's office in the courthouse be
papered.
THIS IS CERTAIN
The Proof That Danville Readers Can
not Deny.
What could furnish stronger evidence
of the efficiency of any remedy than
the test of time? Thousands of people
testify that. Doan's Kidney Pills enre
permanently.
Home endorsement should prove un- ,
doubtedly the merit of this remedy.
Years ago your friends and neighbors
testified to"tlie relief they had derived
from tin* use of Doan s Kidney Pills.
They now confirm their testimonials.
Tliev say time has completed the test.
,T. W. Swarts, 211 Church Street,
Danville, Pa., says: "Several years
ago 1 was caused much suffering by
pains in rnv back and kidneys aud of
ten there was a lameness and soreness
across my loins. Nothing gave mo
much relief uutil I took Doan's Kid
ney Pills, procured from Hunt's Drug
Store. They restored my kidneys to a
normal condition and atter this was
done the pains and aches ceased. Since
then, when my back has bothered me,
I have taken Doan's Kidney Pills and
thev have always helped nie at once."

ANTI-DOG ORDINANCE
Things have livened up in Shautok.
iu since the anti-dog ordinance went
into i ffect Monday.
It . ins that the borough council
au I the civic club laid out lawns and
flower beds, and urged the public to
follow their example, and at the same
time utilize their back yards for gard
ens. Now tho town is overrun with
canines, and flower beds, new lawus
and gard n plots were run over, dug
up and made a grave yard for bones
by dogs innumerable. So the council
in response to public claim passed an
ordinance stating that any dog, chick
en or other creature running at large
on the streets shall be impounded for
five days, and if not reclaimed and a
fine paid by the owner shall be shot
THE U. S. GOVERNMENT iu its
"Pure Food Law" does not "indorse"
or '' guarantee" any preparation, as
some manufacturers in their advertise
ments would make it appear. In the
case of medicines the law provides
that certain drugs shall be mentioned
on the labels, if they are ingredients
of tho preparations. Ely's Cream
Balm, the well-known family remedy
for cold iu tho head, hay fever and
nasal catarrh, doesn't contain a single
injurious drug, so the makers have
simply to print the fact that it com
plies fully with all tho requirements
of the law.

fit to the community.
INCIDENT CLOSED
The Satterth wait-Surf ace incident
is closed. Surface showed lack of pru- I
dent carefulness, but lie didn't do any
intentional wroug. In brief such are ]
the findings of Secretary Critchfield to '
the charges made by former Assistant!
State Economic Zoologist Satteithwait |
against his chief, H. A. Surface that i
the latter used State moneys in run
ning his experimental farm and used {
State employes to do the work, it be- j
ing fiis private farm. The findings are
as follows:
"It is apparent from the testimony j
that in directing his wbrk the accused j
was not as discreet as he should have
been in order to avoid the censure so
likely to fall upon a public officer, j
charged with the expenditure of pub- j
lie funds; but in extenuation of any j
want of discretion shown, it must be j
said that he is to a remarkable degree
an enthusiast in his special line of
work and as such would naturally be
disposed to devote much more thought
to the results lie sought to achieve ;
than to what might be said of the j
methods he employed."
Governor Stuart was seen after the j
findings were made public and said he
had read them and they met with his j
approval, although it was not neces- |
sary for him to take any action on
them.
Later, when the governor was asked
if lie would do anything to Surface,
the governor said he would not. The
State, lie said,would establish its own
experimental farm now since Surface's
work on his own farm had been con
cluded by his return of the machinery ;
that belonged to the State.
SHOT TWO BEARS
Joseph Nilly and Robert Berry, two
farm hands employed on tlie farm of
Joseph Key, in Lower Paxton town
ship, Dauphin county, sighted two
full grown black bears yesterday in
the act of killing a pair of calves on !
the mountain side at the edge of the

Securing a brace of guns, the meu j
gave chase and after a short sprint ,
came within gunshot of the bears and
killed both of them.
The bears came down the mountain ;
side from an immense cave, in which
they had beeu living. Both of them
were full grown and as handsome j
specimens as any ever caught in that

HAULING STONE
1 ON STATE ROAO
r The Montour county court Monday
• took coguizanco of a method of repail
; ing public roads that is much execrat
' ed by the general traveling public, al
though it finds favor with township
supervisors and is pretty, generally
practiced in this part of the State. Al
lusion as had to the method of dump
ing largo stones from the field or
quarry on the public highways instead
broken or crushed stone. Mon
day was tho first that this particu
lar cause for complaint was acteil up
on by the Montour county court.
The matter was introduced by W. J.
Baldy after the oonstables had present
|ed their returns. He complained of a
i State roail in Derry township, leading
I to Washingtonville north and south,
where, he alleged, large stones from the
quarry have been dumped in the road
promiscuously, a large number stand
ing ou'end, where the sharp edges on
tho upper side injure horses' feet aud
puncture automobile tires. Speaking
for himself, he said, he had beeu ob
liged togo several miles around in
driving from Danville to his farms in
Limestone township.
Mr. Baldy explained that he had ex
| pected the constable from Derry town
j ship to report the road, especially, as
j it had lain in that condition for at
J least a couple of weeks. When tliocon
| stable reported the roads in Derry
j township as good lie decided to bring
j the matter before court himself. Judge
Evans at once took up the matter,call
ing the constable of Derry township
before him. The latter—Wesley Hollo
j baugh—acknowledged that the condi
| tions were truly described by Mr.
j Baldy,but that lie had understood that
j the practice of hauling stone in the
road was permissible: also that it had
j been represented to him that the stone
j were to be covered with dirt.
Judge Evans informed the constable
: that he considered him derelict, in not
j reporting the road, which he consider
led an example of wilful neglect. The
district attorney was notified to call
| the attention of the supervisors tocon
i ditions at the points complained of at
I once. If the roads are not putin good
condition forthwith, proceedings are
ito be started. Judge Evans declared
i that if supervisors who maintain bad i
roads were indicted, in his opiniou,
they would be convicted.
DRIVING ACCIDENT

Grove, Liberty township, was painful
ly hurt Monday when he was thrown

tween two wagons on Front street

BLOOM HERE TODAY

Athletic park Bloonisbnrg will eu-
I deavor to wrest another victory from
the Danville victory trust and—some
body's going to be disappointed. The
local boys are feeling fit to say the
least, and fail to see any possible
ohauoe of losing. Bloomsburg too
seem- rather confident aud things
. promise to hum.
Manager Hoffman will work llowe
\ and Kelly in tho points, lline, of
course, will do the twirling for the
i visitors.
In communication with President
MeCollum last evening it was learned
that Walsh,of Wilkes-Barre, will look
: after the game today.
| Walsh is new iu Susquehanna League
circles, but has had considerable ex
perience as an umpire in the Connecti
cut State league.
The fans of both teams are working
their bugs overtime iu anticipation of
the fray and the crowd will likely bo
ono of the largest of the season.
Bloomsburg will carry along some
hundreds of dyed-in-the-wool-Paiior
cityites to help things along and Dan
ville will possibly do some yelling—
some. Anyway it will be a gaino to
ponder over.
Deeded Property to God.
Up iu Laport, the county seat of
Sullivan county, a strange deed has
been unearthed in the office of the
Recorder. It is for a property in the
village of Celestia. audit is deeded to
Almighty God by Peter E. Armstrong

WORLD'S SIXTH
S. S. CONVENTION
An interesting report of tlie World's
Sixth Sunday School convention, re
cently held in Washington,D. C., was
given in both the Pine Street Luther
an church and the/Y. M. O. A., on
Sunday, by Evangelist Wm. D. Lau
matsor, who attendod the convention
as a delegate from Danville.
Edwin Moore sang a gospel solo at
the Y. M. C. A. meeting in the after
noon. In 1904, Mr. Laumaster was a
delegate to the convention held in
Jerusalem, and it will be remembered
by many readers of The American
that he contributed a number of inter
esting articles to the paper, descrip
tive of his journey,with incidents and
impressions he experienced in the var
ious countries visited. He also deliver
ed a number of addresses in the Y. M.
C. A on successive Sunday afternoons
after his return home, which were'
greatly appreciated.
In his report of the Washington con- j
vention, Mr. Laumaster practically!
covered every department of work rep-1 (
resented, —so far as it was possible in |
a short space of time. Beginning with j
the opening meeting, he told of the I
great crowds of people present, and I,
how that, not only the large couven- ],
tion hall, but three or four large
churches were open almost constantly 1
to accommodate the crowds. ,
He told about the chief speakers,and '
gave extracts from the addresses of j
President Taft, Rev. F. B. Meyer, of j
England; Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman, ;
Rev. S. Parkes Cadman, Robt. E.i
Speer and others. He also gave an ac- i
oonut of the Sunday School anil Mis- j I
sionary exhibit, of tiie enthusiasm at i
the meetings, and the wonderful sing- j i
ing of the 10,000 voices in convention | i
hall. i
The parade, composed of men, who '
wero members of Bible classes from 1
all parts of the world, numbering ful- 1 1
ly 7000, he regarded as one of the ciiief '
features of the convention, and was 1
an object lesson that will not soon be 1
forgotten. Congress was adjourned to 1
give members an opportunity to parti- 1
cipate in tli» parade or be onlookers. '
A number of striking incidents, and \
many interesting experiences were al- '
so related, together with a description '
of convention hall; the method used '
to seat the people; the make-lip of the '
choir; the foreign missionaries and
delegates; and the splendid impression '
the convention made.
The report was listened to with great ,
interest, anil was highly appreciated J
by all who heard it.

UNEXPECTED DEATH
Bernard Murphy, an old and highly
esteemed resident of the fourth ward,
died at his home Centre street, at 8:30
o'clock Saturday night aged about 70 i
years.
' The deceased was subject to attacks
of acute indigestion and had been in ,
feeble health for some time. His death,
however, was unexpected.
He was a native of Ireland,emigrat
ing to this country when still a young
man. He was a resident of Danville 1
for over forty years. A widow sur- ,

ARTERY SEVERED
One of the big greys belonging to (
tlio six-horse team owned by Robbins'
circus was almost fatally injured while
the show was exhibiting on the south
side, Friday.
When discovered the horse was
standing alone; on his throat was a
bad gash, apparently inflicted with a
knife, from which the blood poured in
a steady stream.
Veterinarian J. O. Reed of this city J
was called who ligatured tho artery
which had been severed and thus stop
ped the hemorrhage. At last accounts
the horse was likely to recover. How
the injury was inflicted no one .seem
ed to know. It was thought among the
circus people, however, that some one
connected with the show had commit
ted the brutal act.

Now keep your eye on that break.
The eighth. Veitli dropped a clean hit
into center. Mackert sent a Texas
Leaguerer iuto right and Kelly was
hit by a pitched ball. Cushions loaded
and nobody out. Rowe struck out.
Buck got first on Hine's error of a
grounder and scored Voith. Then with
the bases again full Liveugood sent a
foul fly into the hands of Edgar and
Nipple drove one to Mitchell.
Even in the ninth Veith and Mack
ert both singlod but were left on base.
All of Bloomsburg's scoring was
done in the first four innings. In the
last four times that batted they did
not have a look in. Of course they
didn't need it.
Mitchell opened the first with a base
on balls and was sacrificed down by
Mahling. Hagenbuch made the second
out. Rhodornoyer popped one back of
third base which should have been
caught, but which went for a hit scor
ing Michell, before Shatto made the
third out.
In the second they made one more,
after waiting to begin until two were
out. Edgar's long drive iuto center
was good for two bases and was con
verted into a tally when it was follow
ed by Hine's slashing drive that cut
the third bag.
Edging for a stampede, Bloomsburg
got it in the third. With one down
Hagenbuch got his base when Buck
threw low to first. Rhodornoyer also
got his base when Mitchell misjudged
his fly into left, anil Hagenbuch scor
ed. Shatto struck out,but Splain even
ed things by getting a base on balls.
Steflin's hit into left scored Rhodo
rnoyer and Splain before Edgar went
down.
Here Peck relieved Brenneu in the
box and Mackert went to left. But
with the smell of blood in their noses
the Bloomsburgers were not to be
stopped quick. Hine, first up in the
fourth, lammed out a two bagger to
the center field fence. Mitchell hit
clean to right and Mehling got a base
on balls. Bases full and none out.
Hagenbuch sent a pop foul into Kel
ly's mit. Nipple's error of Rhodornoy
er's grounder scored Hine. Shatto's
base on balls forced Mitchell over the
pan. The side was then retired with
out further damage, leaving three on
base.
After that was over Rowe had
things well in hand. Only one more
hit and one more base on balls, gavo
Bloomsburg no chance to score.

for holding the teachers' examinations
throughout Moutour county. They will
take place during the month of July.
A fair proportion of the teachers
employed in the rural schools hold
Normal school diplomas, or permanont
certificates, but the day has not as yet
arrived when a certain number of
teachers capable of doing good work
are not obliged to rely on provisional
certificates, which makes it necessary
to hold examinations annually. Mr.
Dorr states that some very oommenil-
J able work is being done in the rural
| districts by teachers who take the an
] nual examination but who at the same
time are progressing and in a short
time will be in the diploma or perman-
I ent certificate class,
j Examinations are announced as fol
lows:
July 5th —Hill school, Mayberry
j township.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured..
by local applications, as they cannot
reaoli the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect, hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroy I'd forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by Catarrh, which
is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh > that cannot be cured by Hall's
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.
