VOL. <S6—NO ITEMS CONKED. The Women's Society for the Pieveii tion of Cruelty to Animals is placing watering troughs for dogs at different places on the York streets. Freakish conditions of some spring vegetables are noticeable about Gettys burg and some superstitious folk are inclined to blame the trouble on the poor old comet. Eleven-month-old Walter Wells, of Philadelphia, in the absence of his mother, found some cigarettes and ate several. A few minutes later he doubl- I ed up in convulsions and died as his | mother was entering the house. The heavy coal movement to the I lake region has congested the Pitts- j burg railroad yards. Owing to the win ter tienps at the lakes the coal ship- i ment is now at its height and the j railroads do not seem to have the j facilities for handling the large traffic, i While he was retnrning from there- > hearsal for his wedding a few days ago, John S. Hargrave, of Homestead, was attacked by two thugs who reliev ed him of £IOO and the bride's wed ding ring. He was unconscious for three days and his bride-to-be nursed | him. After he had recovered sufficient ly but was still weak as the result of | his injuries, the wedding proceeded, j Alexander Cunningham,aged S)0 died j at ltis home in Manorville not long ! ago of injuries received when he fell over a chair about two weeks before. , He was one of the oldest residents of j that section and lived in Manorville j when it was a small trading post. He j died in the same house as that in j which he was born. A carpenter by ; trade he helped build nearly all the ! houses in the place. George Schenley, a member of the ( old Pittsburg Schenley family, is now j in the Smoky City. Some are prone to j attach singifieance to his visit. Sever- | al months ago it was rumored that a | portion of the family estate was to be 1 donated to a new educational institu tion; this matter may be connected j with Mr. Schenley's presence. Schen ley is now a resident of Loudon and j came to Pittsburg from New York. Saltsburg police are searching for two men, who, after knocking down i D. H. Dunlap.bound and gagged him, j and took over .S2OO, leaving him un conscious and making their escape. , Dunlap, who lives by himself, went ( to answer a knock at the door and one of two men standing there asked for a match. Dunlap turned togo after it and was struck over the head with a blackjack. He managed to loosen the gag after the fellows made their es- j cape and a passerby heard his calls aud went to his aid. Crawling around in her bed, Kuth, the it-month-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Seachman, of Windsor, • fell through the bars and slowly strangled to death. The parents found the dead body. Andrew Patterson,aged 18, of Turtle Creek, is in a serious condition in the j Columbia hospital, Wilkinsburg, with I his left arm torn to shreds and his left j side lacerated from the shoulder to the j hip, as the result of having had the j arm drawn between some cog wheels while at work in the Westinghouse j Machine company's plant at East ; Pittsburg. His sleeve caught in the j machinery and soon the merciless steel ; started to crush his hand. He scream- j ed for help but before it could arrive | the flesh on his side was being torn, i When Frank Gallas, the former for eign exchange clerk of the First, Na- I tional bank of Ford City, arrived at i his home, which he visited while tem porarily released from the Allegheny ! county jail while waiting to be trans- | ported to the Fort Leavenworth fed- j eral prison, in Kansas, he found his I year-old daughter Mabel dead of scar- j let fever; his 2-year-old son ill, and ; his wife prostrated with grief. He was ' almost overcome. The wife broke down when her husband was sentenc ed to five years' imprisonment last j May and was ill for weeks. The shock . of her daughter's death has made her condition serious. Three men have been arrested at j East Liberty by Pennsylvania railroad j detectives and twenty more are to be j haled before the law. A big robbery i scheme is said to have been discover- j ed. Ten thousand dollars' worth of articles is said to have been taken from the Adams Express company at that place. George Harris, a railroad electrician ; David 13. Cox, an express agent, and Charles Parsons, a railroad employe, are under arrest. Robberies have been going on since January 1 aud the value of goods stolen may have been more than given out, it is said. Dr. Edward Charles Parker,profess or of English in the northeast manual training school,Philadelphia,and Mrs. George Hoinans, a widow of a theatric al manager who died [four weeks ago, were married in the Little Church Around the Corner at Now York re. cently. They met three months before ttie husband's death aud the professor started a whirlwind wooing directly after the passing away of the woman's spouse. PATIENTS TAKE FRENCH LEAVE An epidemic of unrest seems to have seized the patients at the hospital for the insane. On Saturday no less than three escapes were attempted, two of which for the time being, at least, were successful. The first escape oocurred during the morning when an Italian, who was as sisting to carry clothes to the wash house took advantage of the confidence reposed in him and finding himself j momentarily alone made tracks toward | town. He was missed and a party was | soon in pursuit. Up to last accounts, j however, he was still at large, al- ! though the authorities at the hospital ■ inclined to the belief that he was hid- ' ing about town,possibly in the rolling : mills. The man is said to He j has dark curly hair, a mustache of the I same color: wears a dark brown suit, j with black slouch hat and speaks good i English. The most sensational escape, how- j ever, occurred during the afternoon, j when a patient scaled a high walljtnd by dint of hard running succeeded in ! eluding the attendants, a troop of whom were in pursuit. The patient was the same athletic young fellow,that attempted to escape 112 in Danville on February 24th last, when a number of patients were brought down to the opera house to i witness a performance of the Champ- J lin Stock company. It will be recalled that at the close of the matinee a pati ent'made a dash, leading an attendant and a half a dozen others a merry chase down Penu street. He demonst- ■ rated the very finest sprinting qualities 1 and was caught only because he un wittingly ran into an alley that led to the steep bank of Mahoning creek. His second attempt to escape Satur day promises to yield better results As he scaled the high wall he was in full view of several attaches of the hospital aud in a few minutes trained attendants were in hot pursuit. He had not much of a start but as a sprinter to begin with lie had his pur suers beat a mile. Indeed, at no time were they in it with him aud the race I could scarcely be called exciting ex cept for the fact that every moment the fleeing man was increasing the distance between himself and his pur suers. The patient's home is in the vicinity of Hazleton and his flight was natural ly in that direction. When last seen he was making for the tall timber on the hills west of Catawissa. This pati- ] ent has nearly recovered and is not at all to be dreaded. He will probably turn up in the vicinity of iiis home in a few days where he will be appre- 1 hended and returned to the hospital, if ! deemed necessary. During the afternoon a patient sue ceeded iu getting out of the institution in a very ingenious manner. Some persons were-being shown through the , building; the door was opened to per mit them to retire, when the patient | coolly walked out with the visitors. | He was soon caught, however. It is not remarkable that patients j should escape. It is perhaps more to be wondered at that "elopements," as they are designated at the hospital, do 1 not more frequently occur. Primarily the hospital is not a prison and the patients,while under constant surveil lance are not "prisoners" in the sense that escape is impossible. It is gratify ing that the number who take French leave is so small and that acts of violence are so seldom attributed to them while at large. LIBRARY CLOSED EVENINGS According to action of the board of directors of the Thomas Beaver Free library taken recently,that institution will follow the custom established in former years by remaining closed even ings during July and August, Satur day evenings excepted. A Surprise Party. A pleasant surprise party was held at the home of Daniel Erdman, Sny- I dertown, Friday evening, in honor of the twenty-first birthday of his daugh j ter, Miss Nettie. The evening was ; spent with music aud games and re freshments were served. | Those present were Mrs. E. C. Wag ner, Missis Bertha Paul, Lizzie Bail ey, Helen Deifler, Messrs. John Sav idge, George Loreman, John Beagle, Roy Kimble,Walter Loreman, Warren Deifler, Grant Loreman,Herman Bail ey, Roy Loreman and Sam Arnold. 90 At 4 P. M. Another warm wave has made its ap pearance. At 1 o'clock yesterday aft ernoon mercury registered 00 degrees, which is only six degrees below the warmest record of a week ago. At six p. m.the themometer regis tered 85 degroes and the atmosphere during the evening was very oppres sive.

On the principle that any league game that we win is a good one, Sat urday's set-to was seven times a dandy. Outside of that about the only interest that attached was a mild cur iosity as to just how many scores Dau ville would roll up before the end came. Although somewhat larger than at Friday's game the crowd was still below the average for a league game., Benton tried conscientiously save to themselves from being inundated by the tidal wave of Danville's bounding score, and in their endeavor ran the gamut ot their pitching personnel, us ing three twirlers. Danville dispas sionately gave each a sound drubbing and scored on all of them. Forty-five Danville batters batted in the eight innings of the game—eleven in the second innings alone. Bran iiigan, who started on the slab tor Benton was in the box during this ses sion— liis last, by the way. lhc little Brannigau appeared to have it in his mind to do some execution when, in the first, he blanked the locals. In the second,however, he just couldn't make his curves behave, ami a three bagger by Hagy,doubles by Mackert and Utn lauf and singles by Kelly and Aius worth hitched up to two errors and a hit by pitcher put seven counts to the Champions' credit. In the third Thompson made his de but and came out unscathed although Mackert was nervously pawing at third base when the innings closed. Thomp son' turn came in the fourth when he started things by serving Liven good with four wide ones. Nipple sacrificed and Wagner struck out. Then with two out, Hagy, Yeith and Mackert,all landed for extra base hits, scoring thrice. Thompson came in from that pound ing with the distress signal flying and Captain Long wig wagged [Second Baseman Snialtz to scurry up and take his turn on the firing line. Snialtz was the last hope and, therefore, stay ed to the finish, although he received no more tender treatment than his pre decessors in the box, Danville soring twice in the sixth and seventh. Benton never had a look in as far as winning was concerned. Only twice in the game did they get a man beyond first base. Once in the seventh Long got to the third sack after his single was followed by Masters' bingle, but he died there. In the eighth the Fishing Creekers garnered their single point,Branuigan sending a two bagger into left lield and counting oil Jones' hit to center. The score: DANVILLE. AB. R. H. O. A. E.

ITALIAN CAPTURED The Italian patient who escaped from the hospital for the insane Sat urday morning and who was seen on the tow path above Northumberland, Monday, yesterday was located at Renovo. William J. Burns and Michael Werle, two attaches of the hospital left ou tho 1:20 Pennsylvania train for Renovo last evening. According to all ac counts the escaped patient is in cus tody there, and all the attendants will have to do will be to take him in charge, bringing him back to tho hos pital. They are expected to arrive at South Dauville today. Within the twenty-four hours end. ing at noon Monday there had been fifteen deaths in Butler and vicinity, half of which were attributed to the heat. TWO LIVES WERE IMPERILLED Mr. aud Mrs. B. M. Davis, Mill street, narrowly escaped asphyxiation Monday morning due to a freakish caper of the gas fixture, which caused the flame to become extinguished and permitted the gas to escape. During the night the gas iu the jewelry store is permitted to burn, turned down low. Night Watchmau W. E. Young is confident that the light was burning about one o'clock Monday morning. Later in [passing he observed that the store room was in darkness. This circumstance was so unusual that he lost no time in call ing Mr. Davis. He pounded upon the door, but seemed to be unable to arouse the in mates. This seemed to add to the mystery of the affair, and the watch man renewed his efforts, knocking as ' loudly as he could. Finally the front window on the second story was opened and then it was learned that the house was full of gas and that Mr. and Mrs. Davis were nearly overcome. The light in the store had gone out and the gas had poured into the room, from which through an open door it found its way into the second story, where Mr. j and Mrs. Davis slept. Mrs. Davis heard the night watch man knocking, but she seemed help- 1 less and it was 'some ten minutes be- j fore she could leave her bed or at- ! tempt to rouse her husband. She fin- j ally managed to get to the front win- I dow, which she opened with difficul ty. Mr. Davis was more nearly over- | come than his wife. Had it not been for the night watch ' man's timely discovery it is not ditti- J cult to foresee what the fate of Mr. and Mrs. Davis might have been. George M. West, superintendent of the Standard Gas plant,is of the opiu- | ion that air got into the gas pipe and there formed a pocket ;on reaching the burner for a moment it cut off the supply of gas and caused the light to go out. ERADICATE THE WEEDS As an effect of the copious showers ' and the warm sunshine weeds every- 1 where are springing up as if by mag ic. They are seen in the gutters,along the fences and on the vacant lots. They are growing luxuriantly and, if not cut down, or eradicated in a short time, they will mature and scatter their seed abroad.with the result that next year's crop will be still more abundant. Conspicuous among the weeds is the rauk burdock, which by reason of the tenacious burs it hears is especially ! objectionable. The season for a general onslaught on the weeds has arrived. Of course in fighting weeds there is work for the borough employes, but no individual is without responsibility, and in a i work of so much importance lines I should not be closely drawn. No prop erty owner or no tenant should per mit noxious weeds to grow up in the j gutter at his residence even though it [ be a mooted question whether there- j moval of them strictly devolves on ! him. Indeed, the same applies to. weeds that grow along fences or any- j where within reach. The man who eradicates them is doing a good work and shows that he is broad minded aud philanthropic. If every person would get busy in this way, eradicat- j ing the first weed he comes across the I unsightly burdock anil other noxious ! plants would soon disappear from the I streets of town. MUST ANSWER IN COURT Nathnniel D. Wolf, J. R. Dorr and 1 Peter Mongol, supervisors of Upper I Augusta township, Northumberland county, must go before court at Sun- j bury on Monday, July 11, to explain certain matters with relation to a road ; in tho township which they were ord ered to open and which they failed to | do. An order of court was procured to make them show cause why they should not be adjudged in contempt of court for not opening the road. The outcome of tho oaso will be watched with interest, as it will show to what extent township supervisors are responsible to the court for the performance of the duties of their office. RATTLER BITES BUL.L Several days ago a bull owned by W. H. Miller, of Cammal, near Slate Run, and valued at. $l5O, was bitten by a largo rattlesnake in the field and now, although still alive, it is in a very bad condition, audit is doubtful whether the animal will recover from the effect of [the bite. The body is swollen to a size considerably larger than the usual. The world gets a little better with eacli passing day. CLASS FOR TEACHER TRAINING A meeting of the Sunday school sup erintendents and teachers and the past ors of the various churches of the city was held at the Y. M. C. A. Tuesday eve to consider the feasibility of est ablishing a union training class for Sunday school teachers. The idea as advanced by Rev. J. H. Musselman was that a union class would have all the advantages of the separate training classes without many of its disadvantages. Benefit would be obtained both from the enthusiasm as a result of the increased number in terested and the variety of ideas that will be advanced. It is proposed to use a standard book treating on the fundamental principles of teaching, the class to be led by one teacher throughout tiie year or term. It was thought best not to begin until September. The class will qualify at the State meeting held in October. The requirements of the State as socaition will be met, it was explain ed by County Superintendent Rev. A. J. Irey, if but two members of eacli school are enrolled. A regular course will be followed and the union class will not interfere iu the least with j any classes that may be already org anized in the different schools for the studying of the lesson for the coming ' Sunday. Tho lesson will not be cou j sidered, the object of the union meet -1 ing being to fit scholars aud teachers ' for teaching properly by instilling in i to their minds the correct principles of teaching and a knowledge of biblical ; truths. i The Y. M. C. A. was selected as the proper place for the class to meet. J Within the next week or two the various Sunday schools will be canvas ed to ascertain how many will be in terested, the results to he reported at ! a meeting to be called by tho district president. In the meantime a competent teach er preferably a layman will be select ed. BRIDGE COMPLETED Workmen under R. A. Simmons completed the painting of the river bridge yesterday morning and the work is now ready to be inspected by the county commissioners. The bridge was completed in about half the time that was figured on aud this in .'spite of the frequent recur rence of rainy weather, w! ich held ! up the work. The Montour county commissioners had planned to have the Northumber land county board present when in spection was made. When it was learned yesterday that the painting was completed and that K. A. Sim | mous, the contractor, was on his vay to Danville for the purpose of making | a settlement, the Northumberland county [commissioners were called up 1 and invited to come to Danville today ! for the purpose of participating iu jt he inspection. In reply the local j board was informed that the North- I umberland county board would be un | able to attend a joint meeting this 1 week. All plans relating to an in j spection, therefore, seem temporarily | up in the air. ELECTRIC SIGNS Fred Howe yesterday placed in posi \ tion in front of his place of business ! on Mill street one of the most'attrac | tive and up-to-date signs iu this sec ' tion. The sign is made by the Century | Sign company, of Lancaster, aud is of tho electric lens variety. It differs i from the old style sign in that it is of ! the upright order overhanging the | curb. It is nine feet long, four feet I wide aud the top stands twenty feet above the pavement. It will be con ' uected up today and will bo lit for the ! first time this evening. Other electric signs that have been placed on Mill street recently are those at Ellenbogens', at David llauoy's to bacco store anil at the drug store of G. Shoop Hunt. BABY FOR DOLL SHENANDOAH, June j Leaving her baby outside in a go cart, Mrs. Kathryn Dunehock, of | Centralia, entered a department store jto make some purchases. Completing hor shopping, she came out and start ed off with her go-cart, as she suppos ed. After traveling t several squares, sho noticed hor mistake, finding the go-cart similar to her own to contain j a large doll instead ot her child. The woman became frantic, and re turned to tho store, only to find her child aud go-cart taken by another woman. With the assistance of the police, Mrs. Dunehock finally found her chilil and go-cart, after seven hours' search, which uea'ly upset her mind. i Even the truism is unfamiliar to some people. ESTABLISHED IN 1855 QUARANTINE AGAINST DOGS Dr. J. O. Reed yesterday received^a communication from S. H. Gilliland, State Veterinarian, in reply to his re port to the State Livestock Sanitary board relative to the prevalence~of rabies in Montour county. The State veterinarian is [willing to assist in a general quarantine against dogs and puts the matter squarely up to the borough officials. "After going over the record of cases of rabies in yonr vicinity," the State "we do not feel that we can at this time incur the expense of placing and maintaining a general quarantine against dogs on account of rabies throughout Montour county; but should your borough offic ials desire to place a general quaran tine against dogs on account of rabies in the borough of Danville we would certainly be pleased to have these notices printed and forward same to you—provided the borough officials will agree to effectually enforce the provisions of the quarantine establish ed. However, should any new cases of rabies come to your attention we would certainly be pleased to have you advise the parties interested to sub mit a brain to our laboratory in order that a definite diagnosis may be es tablished. Should any additional cases come to your attention and a diag nosis be made we will again take up with you this question of establishing a general quarantine. "Trusting that you will appreciate the fact that we are doing the very best that we possibly can to suppress labies throughout this large State with tlie lather small funds available and trusting that you will advise us relative to the borough officials' de cision at an early date, we remain Yours very truly, S. H. GILLILAND, State Veterinarian." Dr. Heed submitted the above com munication to Chief Burgess Ames bury yesterday. During an interview later the burgess stated that after rak ing into consideration all that is irn* plied by maintaining a general quar antine against dogs he feels constrain ed to advise against it—at least unless another outbreak should demonstrate that such a quarantine is actually necessary. Meanwhile he requests that persons exercise due caution, placing them selves in no danger at any time and, if owners of dogs, that they watch these closely, tying them up at the first symptom of disease. Danville, the chief Liiigt-ss explain ed, had a costly experience in trying to enforce the general quarantine against dogs a couple of years ago, and lie feels that in taking the posi tion he does lie will generally have tho support of citi/.ens. Do You Mind the Heat? You who complain of the tempera ture, day or L- > into one of the iron working ] i.aus in town and watch the men there a few minutes, if you can stand the heat at a safe distance from the glowing ingots, and the bars as they come through the rolls. Think you have it hot at your own daily task? Trade with these men a half hour and it is safe to say tht you will make tracks back to your own job and call it delightfully cool. Yesterday Scores.
