Y. M. G. A. NOTES.

In an address before the Lynn, Mass. +,
Y. N. @. A. Attorney Genaral Moody
said:
Everywhere that the Young Men S
Christian Association has come into
rivalry with the saloon the latter has
been worsted and the people of Lynn
can make no better investment in be-
half of the young men of the city than
to give literally toward the fund for
the erection of the proposed structure.
Many of you will remember that 1
was once prosecuting officer Of Essex
county, and as such | probably knew
more about the trials and temptations
of our young men than auy of you,
and l tell you that you will find the
costliest Young Mems Christian As
sociation building that you can erect
for your young men. where they will
be brought under good influences,
cheaper to support than a courthouse
and district attorney. God has given
some men a tact or indefnable some
thing which enables them to accumu-
late wealth, and this money is given
them for a purpose-to help their fell
low men-and IN the Y. M. @. A
there is the grandest of opportunities
for using money"

QUO WARRANTO
PROCEEDINGS

Argument was heard before Deputy
Attorney General Fleitz yesterday on
the petition of the Danville and Sun
bury Street Railway Co. for a writ
of quo warrantO directed against the
DanvilIe and Riverside Street Rail
way Company and the Danville and
Bloomsbury Street Railway Company,
requiring the latter to show cause why
they should not be dispossesscd of
their charter rights A decision is not
expected for some days.
Both the petitioning and respondent
companies were chartered under the
FOcht street railway act of 1901. The
Danville and Sunbury Company allege
that the Danville and Riverside com
pany never attempted to exercise any
of their charter rights, nor to make
use of the provisions of the franchise
granted them by the borough of Blooms
burg.
They also claim that the original
charter was defective in that it con-
tanned clause permitting the Dan
Vile and Sunbury Company to use
$500 feet of the route of the Berwick
and Bloomsbury Street Railway Com
pany, which clause the Supreme Court
has declared to be unconstitutional.
The DanvilIe and Bloomsbury Com
pany sets up the defence that because
of the unconstitutionality of this
clause they were justified in getting
out charter for the same route before
the required two year limit had expir-
ed. The Danville and Sunbury Com.
psny secured their charter after the
expiration of the two year limit.
The suit means much to street rail
way interests in general, and involves
about $500 already expended by the
DanvilIe and Bloomsbury Company
whose line between Danville and
Bloomsbury was only opened for travel
this week. Harrisburg Patriot.
The Danville and Bloomsbury Com
pany were represented by Hon. Grant
Herring of Bloomsbury, Ex-Judge Koah
of Reading and James Scarlet. E-q

vile and Sunbury Company were look
ed after by Hon. Lyman d. Gilbert of
Harrisburg, Hon. O. B. Whitmer OF
Sunbury,C. Q. Yetter of Bloomsbury
and W. Kase West of this city.

How, to Make a Campfire.

An absurd and reprehensibly destruc-
tive practice is the building Of fires be-
Meath a tree "in order to get the draft"
says a writer IN the Springfield Repub.
lican The fools that do this kill great
trees for nothing but a campfire. There
is no sense In that wretched practice.
A fire for camp cooking should be built
in the open, and nothing is easier. A
bare rock is the best place, and II you
are TO cook by ii put up a barrier OF
loose stone just extensive enough to
make a fire as large as a kitchen stove
would hold. put fat stone over these
walls, and you have all you want. You
can fry bacon and your corn cakes and
boil your coffee on that stone. This is
as good for winter as for summer. And
If you want hot old campfire clear
space Of all combustibles and begin
small, gradually adding a stick or two,
and the heat beneath will soon grow 80
strong that you can keep it up for as
many hours as you please. But be sure
that YOU let 1t get down to the ashes
before you leave. Nobody knows what
may happen after you leave a blazing

CUT AND CARED FOR
SICK rIAN'S CORN

DR.. Paules, who is attending Elmer

came very Ill of blood poisoning from
pricking a finger on wire screening,
yesterday reported Mr.. Slider slightly
improved and getting along as well as
can be expected.
The farmers of the neighborhood on
Tuesday did all they could to help the
sick man on to recovery by gathering
at his home and cutting and harvest
ing all of his corn. This act of
kindness of course cheered and relieved
Mr.. Slider. The corn-cutters had a
fine harvest dinner after completing
their work.

The advent of real Autumn is the
beginning of joyous season. We get
glimpses of it here about the city in
the changing foliage of the trees and
color on the nearby hills, and in the
freshness of the breezes. And those
wise and self-contained individuals
who have postponed their annual vaoa-
tion to this time depart with JOY for
the delights of duck hunting along the
rivers or of nutting in the woods.
There is a good deal of time yet before
the Winter closes in upon US in this
latitude, and the early Autumn is the
most precious and delightful of this
transition period.

TO PREVENT DAMAGE
BY ICE TO BRIDGES

Experiments are to be made this
year to prevent damage to bridges by
ice gorges in the Susquehanna river.
Last spring the bridges at many points
were greatly damaged by the gorges.
1t is planned to place heavy steel
bars along the vulnerable points of the
stone piers. They will be firmly fast
ened in such manner as to keep the
piers from being injured by the great
blocks of ice tnat are loosened with
the breaking of the gorges and the
flooding of the river.
The bridges along the lower section
of the river are to receive attention
first.
The work of putting on the steel
bars will require several months.

ssHunan Hearts.

The visit of Human Hearts at the
theatre tonight will no doubt be
warmly welcomed by the lovers of all
that is good in melodrama. Human
Hearts" is beyond question, one of the
strongest and most interesting plays
that has ever visited our city. The
author belongs to that all too small
group of dramatists, who understands
how to reach the heart and hold the
attention of the audience. In Human
Hearts, he has constructed a play
that will never grow old. The
theme of the play is Hope, and has not
some author written, "Hope springs
eternal in the human breast?" Hope,
the one bright ray of sunshine, that
breaks through and illumines the
clouds of despair that almost over
Whelms poor Tom Logan. The hope of
a good, pure woman's love; the hope
of brighter, better days; the hope of
an honest man, unjustly accused of
crime, that the criminal will be de-
tected and his good name restored.
Mr.. Reid has handled his subject with
the cOnsumate skill and ease that
shows the true dramatic instinct.
