IN A RUNAWAY
Sidney Beyer,one of the drivers em
ployed at Jacobs' bakery, was thrown
out of the wagon during a runaway
Monday afternoon and narrowly es
caped injury.
He was driving along the D. L. &
W. track near the intersection oi
Pine street, when the horse took fright
at the cars and giving a spring caused
the siugle tree to snap in two. Tht
driver bracing his feet agaiust tht
dashboard, with all the strength lit
could muster, held ou to the lines.The
horse was a gritty auimal, and aftei
the broken single tree put the traces
out of commission, he pulled tin- wag
ou with his teeth.
All went well until one of the lines
snapped in two under the uuusua
strain. The horse then became abso
lately unmanageable. As a last resori
the driver rising the one line availablt
tried to pull the animal up ajjaiusi
the building at the corner of D. L. <S
W. avenue ami I'iue street. At tin
same moment, however, the liorst
sprang forward precipitating the man
who still had hold of one line, head
foremost into the street.
The driver miraculously escaped m
jury. Free at last the horse, draggiut
the wagon after him, dashed up Pini
street to Center street, down Cente:
to Mill and out the latter street as fa
as the Danville Milling company 1 !
plant, where he was caught. Thi
shafts were fonud to be badly broker
and the harness was torn, but furthe:
than this uo damage was done.

Strong Attraction Coming.
One of the strongest plays of recent
years, "The Thief," has been booked
lor apparauee at the Danville opeia
house on Tuesday, December 18th.
This play created much comment when
the leading role was played by Marg
aret lllington. Miss Edna Archei

will plav the leading part in the com
pany that will appear in Danville,and
she will be suppoited by a strong cast.
"The Blue Mouse."
If your cousin, or aunt, or friend,
has been to New York you may lean
what "The Blue Mouse" really is.
The New York papers called it a sue
oess; old-timers and first-nighters de
clared it a scream without a flaw.
"The Blue Mouse," will be seen liert
at the Danville opera house Saturday
evening and is a wholesome laugh-pro
voker without causing the senastion
of uneasiness. Few plays have creat
ed the favorable attention that hat
been bestowed upon this latest produc
tiou. The cast is unusually large for «
farce comedy, as 25 people are requir
ed to tell the stoiy.

COUNTY INSTITUTE
A somewhat novel proposition is be- !
ing advanced hv the ruial teachers of
Montour county, which briefly stated ]
is that the teachers' institute, which i
for so many years has met iu Dan- '
] ville, should hold its sessions in some ;
part of the county centrally located.
One of those agitating a change is
Mr. Mont Derr of White Hall, who
1 following the adjournment of insti- !
1 tute, expressed regret that an agita
j tion of the matter was not incorporat- !
ed in the resolutions submitted to the I
institute.
! Mr. Derr says the institute should
1 meet at Washingtonvillo instead of at \
j Danville, as that point is most centr 1
ally located. The auditorium of one |
:of the churches there, which has a i
greater seating capacity than the high j
school room in Danville,is, ho explain- |
! ed, always available for educational j
meetings. The hotels, together with j
private honses, that could be relied j
; upon to throw open their doors, would
I afford ample accommodations. By
I meeting at Washingtouville. Mr. Derr ,
states, practically all the teachers of j
the couuty could drive backwards and
forwards between their homes aud the
institute, whereas as things are con- 1
ducted at present, he says, they find a 1
| week's sojourn in Danville a serious!
| drain on their resources. A change in i
j the holding of the institute is oue of j
the things that is to be agitated 111 the j
; future.
| To what extent Mr. Derr reflects '
: prevailing sentiment among the rural
teachers is not known. It is a fore- j
I gone conclusion, however, that the
proposition will hardly receive much
i support from the Danville teachers.
DEEDS, NOT WORDS
Danville People Have Absolute Proof of
Deeds at Home.
I It's not words, but deeds that prove 1
true merit.
; The deeds of Doau's Kiduey Hills,
For Danville kidney sufferers.
Have made their local reputation.
Proof lies in the testimony of Dan-
J ville people who have been "cured to
| stay cured.
j Mrs. John Cooper,-100 Church street, j
| Danville. Pa., says:"lt would be im- |
i possible for 1110 to say too much in }
! favor of Doan's Kidney Pills. They j
! are indeed a blessing to all persons
! who suffer from backache or kiduey
I trouble. About three years ago we
I first learned of Doan's Kidney Pills
I and they were taken by a member of 1
I my family who suffered from pain and '
| lameness in the back. Relief was soon
received and other symptoms of kid j
I ney trouble which had caused much j
j annoyance were disposed of. I, too, |
I have taken Doan's Kidney Pills with
excellent results and have recommend
ed them on many occasions." (State

| Mrs Cooper was interviewed 011
January 24. 1910 and she said: "I

SMOKES OPIUM—That an alleged
opium outfit found in his home was
bis private property ; that he has the
right to nse it, and the police are
overstepping their authority in trying
to prevent him using the popy product
is the contention set up by George W.
Stimson, of Pittsburg, when arraign
ed before a police magistrate. Stim
son said he had smoked opium for 1?
years, and requested that an informa
tion be made against him so that the
matter might bo taken into the courts,
which was done.
» SNOW FILL
OF FOUR INCHES
Although, astronomically, winter In
regarded «« beginning with tlip win
ter solstice. December 'JIM, and end
ing with the vernal equinox, March
31st, yet, popularly, winter 1* corisld
ered an Including the month* of Dec
ember, January and February During
the last couple of years cold weather
with nnow has made its advent e»rly.
coinciding with the popular division
of the year. It Is easy however, tore
call winters where snow and cold
weather did not appear until about
the time of the winter solstice.
In 1 IK>O we had a snow on Thanks
giving It wim too early In the season,
however, for it to lie very long, and
it soon turned into slush, leaving bad
roadn. On Christmas we had a six inch
snow whiuli afforded sleighing.
Ou arising yesterday morning peo
ple were surprised to find the ground
covered with some four inches of
j snow. The snow Monday stopped fall
ing about 8 o'clock p. 111., leaving the
1 ground covered to the depth of oue
and a half inches. Between midnight
and morning it began to snow again
and continued pietty nearly all day
yesterday. In view of the fact that
the present, snow has been preceded
1 with some eight or feu others, each
>of which covered the ground an
inch or moie.it is plain that this win
ter has appeared Quite as early as last.
Whether it shall prove as rigorous
throughout remains to be seen.
The merry sound cf the sleigh bells
were heard at an early hour yester
i day morning Chief Burgess A. I'.
| Amesbury is said to merit the dis
tinction of being the first one to a| -
: pear in a sleigh this season. A rium
! lire of persons tried sleighing during
! the day. 011 the paved streets the run
' tiers ran very nicely, but where the
1 bottom was in the least rough, owing
to the lightness of the snow the going
! was rather bad. Nevertheless, several
! farmers came into towns in sleighs
I and seemed to enjoy the experience
| very much.
! The r. 112. d. mail carriers were
| slightly delayed.They found the roads
heavy for wheeled vehicles, but they
got through without much difficulty,
j It was their first experience with win
| ter this year.
The trains all arrived at Danville on
| time or only a trifle late. The Dan
ville and Bloomsburg Electric Rail
way had its snow plow out at an early
1 hour and was alile to run its cars prac
-1 tically 011 schedule. The Danville and
i Sunbury Transit Company also kept
I its cars moving on time.
I The snow shovels made their ap
pearance yesterday. The discordant
squawk of a few might have been
heard before the day had fairly dawn
ed, but others were rather late in get
ting iuto commission, and up to the
middle of the afternoon many pave
ments could be found in the central
part of town that needed cleaning
j badly.

NO APPROPRIATION
The commissioners of this county in
common with those of other counties
of the State are unable to pay boun
ties for the killing of wildcats, foxes,
minks and weasels,in accordance with
the law of 1907.
The last legislature failed to make
the necessary appropriation, and as a
result the commissioners are obliged
to stand the trappers off.
A large number of noxious animals
are killed in Montour county each
year. Formerly the money paid out
in bounties annually was considerable.

SHIPPING OF
MS PRESENTS
IHero are h few tips tor present send
ing people that may aid in getting tho
gifts to their destinations without un
! necessary delay:
j All shipments should be plainly
i marked with brush, pen, ink or cray
on. Tags should not be used when
the above can be applied. Do not use
card marks oi scraps of paper tacked
on boxes. They are liable to be defac
ed or rubbed off in which case a delay
iu the delivery is certain, and perhaps
the loss of the package or box may re
| suit. If the package Is of such a na
ture that ink cannot be applied, a tag
«hould be firmly attached to the ship
ment. When old boxes or crates are
used, one should bo sure to erase old
marks or addresses.
Remember to mark the name of the
city or town ami the street very plain
ly, also the street aud number of con
signee's residence or place of business
when known ; the county also should
be included in the address of ship
ments destined to small towns. If no
local address is given,inquire whether
the consignee is a permanent resident,
and if not mark the package "to be
called for."
Also the sender should in every case
mark his own address on the package.
Presents destined for the New Eng
land States, the south and the middle
west should be given a full week's
start to allow for heavy snows or con
gestion. The Pacific coast and the
Dominion of Canada should be allow
ed a ten-day or two weeks' start,
i It is far better to have your Ohrist
| mas offering at its destination a few
i days before than » few days after Deo

TO FIGHT TUBERCULOSIS
i lied Cross Christmas Seals,which in
j the past have aided mightily in the
fight against tuberculosis, have been
placed on sule at the First National
bank, this city, where they will be
convenient to all our townspeople.
This wonderful weapon in fighting
tuberculosis has become familiar to us
all. In the center of the seal is a red
cross, in a circle around which are in
scribed: "American Rod Cross, Merry
Christinas aud Happy New Year."
The cost is a cent and while the seals
do not take the place of a stamp, when
placed on a letter or parcel along with
a stamp they become a decoration and
carry with them added cheer ami hap
piness.
In IDOB enough of these little seals
were sold at one cent each to produce
1150,000, every ceut of which was spent
iu the fight against tuberculosis. In
1909 the sale brought 1240,000. The aim
this year is to raise a million dollars
through the sale of the Red Cross
Christmas seal, which will be a mighty
weapon against tuberculosis.
During the last two years large
numbers of Red Cross Christmas seals
were sold iu Danville. Undoubtedly
the sales this year will be much larg
er than any time in the past.
