KANSAS SMASHER
WAS IN SUNBURY

Good morning Carrie, how are YOU
this morning" This was the slogan
at the Pennsylvania Railroad station
Sunbury, yesterday morning when Car
rie Nation, the Kansas smashor stop
ped OFT between trains eurOutc from
Altoona to Shamokin
When the Lewistowu train arrived
and lady, fat, fair and over fifty
alighted, plotting a huge grip, the
news soon spread like wild fire that
the irresistible Carrie was in town
and soon large crowd had gathered
expecting something to happen and in
this they were not disappointed.
When Carrie got her bearings and
shook tho dust of travel from her
frock, she headed for Stahl's restau-
rant opposite the Sunbury station.
After taking care of her Indigestion
Carrie dashed herself in the face with
a nakpin several times and then saunt-

Is 1t Kindness 2

A new and difficult point has been
prolonging life, when it is known that
death is inevitable, and that the Ie-
sorting to stimulants is only tempor-
airy and adds to the misery of the body
and soul which seek to be at rest. The
late Pope entreated toward the last
that he be allowed to die peacefully
without any more of the stimulants
whose only Office could be to prolong
little while the mere physical pro
cesses Of life President Mckinley,
Queen Victoria, Pope Leo and other
illustrious patients were kept alive for
days by powerful stimulants, though
the malady was known to be fatal and
death the inevitable result Can such
methods be called "a kindness? When
there is no possibility Of ultimate re
covery, it is terrible ordeal to wait
for dissolution. Mere prolongation of
the beating of the heart is not a boon
to be begged when peace is near at
hand. Yet, what physician would
dare do less than fan the feeble spark
as long as it shows even n ghmmcr: !:
Though he knows what must happen,
though it is but question of days or
of hours. if he has within his reach a
remedy that will add to them ho could
not reconcile himself to Withholding
it nor would the public acquit him,
if made acquainted with the facts.
This is coming to be difficult point
in practice in ethics, in humanity. We
shudder when we think of permitting
lite to lapse by ever SO small fraction
short of the time to which it might be
preserved, though that should be but IA
cruel kindness. If still more effective
means of stimulation and sustontation
are devised, who shall decide in future
when the weary and longing soul may
be permitted to find its glad release?

BISHOPS LETTER
ON pop Els DEATH

In accordance with the custom in
such occasions Bishop Shannon has is-
sued letter to the clergymen and
laity of this, the Harrisburg Diocese,
in regard to the death of Pope Loo
XIII, and the necessary arrangements
for memorial services to be held on
the day of burial of the Pontitf. The
following is the Bishops address:
TO the Venerable Clergy and Belov-
ed Children of the Laity:
1t becomes our duty To convey to
you the sad Intelligence of the death of
the Sovereign POntiff. Leo XIII. The
common father of the faithful has
closed his long career on earth. His
children, everywhere, will feel the
loss; even those who do not belong to
the household of the faith will regret
his demise and will pay their tribute
of respect to the memory of a great
and good man, whose whole life was
consecrated to the moral, religious and
social betterment of the world. Leo
XIII will ever be remembered rs the
staunch defender of religion, as the
supporter of authority III church and
state, rs the advocate of honesty and
fair dealing among individuals and
between nations; as the promoter of
peace and good will among men. Like
st. Paul, he made himself all things
to all men to gain all to Christ.
The death of the Holy Father brings
to us Catholics grief which is of an
intimate and personal nature. For,
under God, the Pope was the source
of spiritual life and light to us
Through the instrumentality OF his
priests, we were nourished with the
word of God and the holy saCraments ;
through the medium of his frequent
pastoral letters, we were warned
against dangers which threatened the
individual and civil society; through
the numerous indulgences which he
dispensed, we were encouraged to
practices of piety through the pattern
al blessings which he so lovingly
granted, we were rewarded i'll our
feeble efforts to secure our own sane
tification and to promote the glory OF
God and the salvation of souls. Old
and young neld him in their heart of
hearts with deepest reverence and
filial affection.
But the Sovereign Pontitf, like the
humblest of his subjects. had to ap-
pear before the Judgment seat of God.
He had to give there a strict account
of his stewardship. Let US trust that
he received favorable sentence from
the Almighty whose viCegerent he was
But, who is worthy to go Immediately
from earth to heaven, and to share at
once the inetfable sanCtity of God
The Pope may need our poor prayers,
in that prisOn-house of love, whore
even the just are sometimes detained.
Eternal rest give to him, o Lord, and
let perpetual light shine upon him.
We direct that masses of requiem be
offered up on the day of the Sovereign
Pontiff's funeral, and that the churches
be draped in black to testify the sorrow
of the faithful Very sincerely in
Christ.

Tramps are creating rein of terror
IN the lower end of White Deer val
ley, and a posse of armed men, under
the leadership of Constable Newman,
of Lewisburg. have gone to drive them
out. They surrounded the farm house
of JOS. Bennlge and menaced the place
until daybreak, threatening to burn
the house and murder the family. The
only weapon of defense Bennige had
was an axe, with which he stood guard
all night. When the tramps moved
away Bennige harnessed his team and,
loading his wife and children in the
farm wagon, drove six miles to a place
of safety.

A SUMMER RESORT
AT HOME

Dsnyille Is a summer resort OF no
mean attractions, and it seems cur
ious that so many of her citizens spend
their holidays idly elsewhere. 1t is
still more curious that so many peo-
Ele believe that they must go away
from town to spend their holidays
Most of the healthful joys of vaca-
tion can be had without going away
from home A twenty minute walk
or n drive of few moments will take
pleasure seekers away from the town
10 where they can have private pic
mics amid enhancing scenery. Such
scenery can be found anywhere i'll this
vicinity, and especially along the riv
er and towards either the North or
South Of the town. The Danville
citizen who seldom goes beyond the
we'll known beat from home to work
place and back and sometimes the
way TO the lodge and then rushes out
OF town when he gets vacation,
should take drive through the county
or a walk along the cycle path to
Aausdale. He will find nowhere in
the world more beautiful scenery than
he can view in this section, with lit
tie or no expenditure. Does he crave
mountain and wildwood, let him sea
Blue Hill or Bald Top. No more
picturesque places exist. Anywhere he
may 60 in this locality nature will be
found as beautiful as at any of the
haCkneyed summer resorts where Gus
tom has heretofore driven him. Strange
that man will travel far for beauty
less attractive than he can find at his
door.
There are pleasures to be found in
Danville as we'll rs elsewhere There
is ss good an amateur base ball club
here as can be found outside of the
big leagues. Good games have been
the rule and the patrons are well
pleased. The parks are very attrac-
iive places. One can always find di-
version at these resorts. Music and
dancing can be enjoyed on various
nights during the week. Boating and
fishing can also be enjoyed in Dan
vile. Good country roads make rid
ing or driving thing to be desired.
Those who wish to idle away some of
the time will find the Beaver Library
with its we'll stocked book shelves at
their disposal. One will always be
made welcome at the Y NJ. O. A
where many pleasant hours can be
spent.
Just try vacation at home. See if
you don't enjoy yourself as much as
you could elsewhere and for less mon
ey.
