DANVILLE TO
HAVE SAVINGS BANK

The story current for some time past
relative to the establishment of saw
ings bank in this city is by no means
idle gossip. The charter notice has
already been printed, the principal
part of the capital stock has been sub
scribed and the bank is considered an
accomplished fact.
The prime mover in the enterprise
is Mr.. j. b. Watson of this city. Mr..
Watson, who has had eighteen years
experience in the First National Bank
of Scranton, was not slow TO discern
the fine opportunities which present
themselves in this field for banking
enterprise such as he had in vi 1t
has required only a short ca IS to
convince him that the idea saw
ings bank is popular i'll Danvillc. En-
couragement comes in from every side,
not only from those who will be de-
positors but also from those so circum-
stanccd as to be able to invest in
stock. 1t is fact, therefore that of
the stock subscribed the greater part
is held by Danville people. The chart
er notice states that the institution
will be known as the Peoples Bank
and that it will have a capital of
$50, 000 While the intention is to do
a general banking business, the propos-
ed institution will be distinctively
savings bank where the savings or
earnings of the humblest person may
be deposited and put at interest. In
tercst accounts rs small as one dollar
will be opened at the bank.
1t is a fact that there is no instltu-
tion between Wilkesbarre and Harris
burg that pays interest on deposits. In
Il town such as ours there is at present
no special induccment for people to
that the amount of money placed in
bank here is 30 per cent. below what
it would be if interest were paid on
deposits and what it is actually found
to be III other towns, similarly situ-
ated where savings banks are main
tanned
Although the new bank can not be
started before December Goth, the date
set for the application of the charter,
yet in the very near future the sub
scribers will be called together and a
preli minary organization effected 1t
will not be until then that location
will be selected for the bank. The
greater part of the stock being held by
citizens here th6re is no doubt but |
that the treasurer and board of di-
rectors chosen will all be Danville mon.

Nav Organize Basket Ball Team.

An effort is now being made to or
ganize basket ball team for th @
winter and it will be composed of
players who will put up the same
quality of ball as the champions of
several years ago. That team went
through an entire season without the
loss of game. Danville would sup
port such team and it would be
much in demand throughout the state.
This city is looked upon as being cell
ebrated in athletics and the name of
Danville always draws big crowds.
The preliminary steps for the organ
ization of the team are now being
taken and the list of players will be
announced within short time.

Ouail on 0ur Streets,

Our local sportsmen are much in
terested by the appearance of con-
siderable number of quail in town.
Sunday flock of half a dozen took
possession of one the trees at the Mont
our House. A similar number were
fitting about the trees i'll Market
square while at other parts of
town they were to be seen i'll greater
or less numbers.
The presence of the quail in town
does not necessarily Indicate super
abundance of the game in the country,
as they are often known to seek the
haunts of man when pursued by hawks
or other enemies.
Quail come into season on October

Hose House to be Rebuilt.

Our borough fathers have Nandon-
ed the idea of building hose
house for the Continental fire com
pany. The shortage of funds makes
it necessary for the borough to pursue
a policy that shuts out any improve
ment that is not absolutely necessary.
While unsafe i'll its present condition
Architect Brugler and other experts
who condemned it agree that by par
TALLY rebuilding the present hose
house it might be made perfectly safe
and durable.
The difficulty lies with the poor
foundation under portion of the
building, which rests on sand The
rear wall and probably part of the
side wall, it is stated, must be torn
down, after which an excavation will
have to be made deep enough to lay bare
a solid bottom to build upon.
Once on a proper foundation the
wall removed can be rebuilt at little
expense, the whole cost probably not
exceeding $500. The first proposition
was to abandon the present hose house
and build one on wholly new site.
By the plan adopted the borough will
save considerable money. Work on the
rebuilding necessary will be begun in
the very near future.

House Burglarized.

While Mr.. and Mrs. George A. Ort-
man, who live in Valley township,
were absent from home their house
was ransacked by burglars. They
went to Bloomsbury Tuesday morning
and on their return late in the day
found the doors open and the whole
house showed that the intruders had
made a thorough search for booty. A
suit of clothing belonging to Mr.. Ort-
man, a bed room clock and q pocket
book were taken. In the pocket book
was a negotiable note for $95. l8.
There is no clue that will lead to the
discovery of the burglars, although
the authorities of this city and vicin-
ity have been notified.

Going Over Rural Routes,

The carries of the four rural mail
routes, which are to be established in
this county on October l, are prepar
ing for duty. They have all gone over
the routes, in company with Post
master Harder, and will make anoth-
er trip to get the names Of those to be
served.
The wagons have been ordered and
are expected to arrive here soon. They
are manufactured at Adrian, Michigan,
and cost $40 each. They are built
especially for the service and are ap-
proved by the government. They are
closed, with glass front and are
similar in appearance to dairy or
laundry wagon. There are sliding
doors, and desk, drawers and pigeon
holes are inside for the distribution
of mail. Small stoves can be put in
the wagons if needed.

WILL BURN WOOD
AND SOFT COAL

The subject of fuel for the school
buildings came in for full share of
discussion at meeting OF the school
board Monday evening. A couple of the
buildings are already in need of fuel
of some kind. 1t was decided to begin
with the use of wood, which il was
thought could be made to answer the
purpose during the mild weather of
the present month and October. AS
colder weather approaches it was de-
cided to experiment with the use of
soft coal, in case the miners strike is
still on.
The board was in communication
with p II. Cotner and J. II. Johnson
of this city, both of whom have been
dealing in wood on a large scale. The
prices quoted range from 81. 80 per net
ton to S4. 80 per cord. 1t was ordered
| that several loads of wood at the
former figure be purchased of Mr..
Cotner.
Bids for the revolving chairs, which
the board decided to purchase at the
previous meeting, were received from
John Doster's Sons, George w. Roat
and Frederick Ream. On motion the
order was placed with John Doster's
Sons at "a. IS pei chair.
Ralph Kisner, attorney for the
school board, was present at the meet
ing. On Friday last, he said, he re-
ceived visit from The factory in
spector representing this district, Col.
]. X. Robson, who is looking after
the enforcement of the law relating to
the employment of children. The in
spector took occasion to commend the
Danville School Board for the pains
it has taken to see that the school law
as it relates to attendance is obeyed
and assured the attorney that the
board could always rely upon his sup
port and cooperation.
The attorney reported that he had
investigated the stream at Welsh Hill,
which threatens to undermine the
public school building at that point.
In his opinion, he said, the borough
is responsible for whatever damage
may occur through the water there
and not the Reading Iron Company,
as was supposed. He found that
portion of the stream had at one time
been cobbled, which establishes the
fact that it was adopted as a system of
drainage by the borough, which makes
the latter responsible.
On motion Mr.. Kisner was requested
to notify the borough authorities of
the condition of the stream.
The following members of the school
board were present at the meeting:
Barber, Orth, Curry, Keefer, Byerly,
Werkheiser, Harpel, Green, Burger,
Redding and Fischer.
The following bills were approved

special train which went through

of Robert Moody, who lives on ID. L..

when the special came up from North

out of the way just as the train rush
