D. A. MONTGOMERY

David A. Montgomery, one of Dan
ville's most prominent citizens and a
member OF Council, died at O'Clock
Monday eve, after suffering with a
complication Of diseases for about two
years and half.
The deceased was born in what was
then New berry, but now the eth and
llth Wards Of the city Of Williams
port, fl years ago He was married to
Miss Emma Pursel, daughter of Mr..
aud Mrs. J. F. Pdrsel April /, 1895,

gagged in the livery business with his

Growing in Interest.

Under the supervision of Physical
Director Carpenter the work Of the Y
standard All the classes are we'll at
tended and growing iu interest aud
popularity.
Five physical culture classes are
now in successful operation. The bust
ness mems evening class and the tusi-
ness mems afternoon class both meet
twice week. The latter is not as we'll
attended at present as 1t might be, but
will, doubtless. have a larger mum Der
present at the meetings after the holi-
days. The class for young men and
the boys class each meets twice week
in the evenings, and the young ladies
class twice a week in the afternoons.
The latter class is popular with the
Young ladies, well attended and grow
ing in interest. 1t is confidently eX
pected that after the first of the year
greater interest will be manifested in
all the classes.
Parents who have an interest in the
physical development of their boys
and girls, should present them with a
Y. NJ. G. A. membership ticket. which
will be good for one year in any Y. NJ.

ReYiYaIs Were Successful.

The revival meetings at st. Paul S
NJ. E. church have closed. They had
been in progress for several weeks un-
der the leadership of the pastor, the
Rev. S. b. Evans, and were one of the
most successful held at that church in
many years.
The attendance nightly was large,
not only on the part of the member
ship, but on the part of members OF
other congregations and the public at
large. While the pastor labored hard
in bringing about the result which fol
lowed. he had the earnest support and
assistance of his people. Pulpit and
pew worked together as unit, snd
reaLed a rich harvest in return tor the
efforts put forth. Much enthusiasm
was aroused.
A spiritual awakening occurred, re
sulting in revival that has not only
benefited the church in which the
series of meetings were held, but the
entire community. Penitents, having
been convinced by the strong and
earnest words of the pastor that they
should change their manner of living,
focked 70 the altar and later professed
conversion. During the course OF the
revival, thirty new members we're add
ed to the church.

The Pure Food Farce.

1t is suggested that the Pennsylvania
pure food laws should be enforced only
against dealers who have been warned
that certain goods which they handle
are impure and who nevertheless per-
sst in selling them.
Justice would approve such depart
ure from present methods of enforcing
the laws. As now enforced these laws
are farcical.
The retailers against whom the arms
of the Common wealth are leveled are
in most cases innocent of wrongdoing
or of completely in violations of the
law. They buy what they believer are
pure goods and sell them under that
belief. It is unjust to mulot them, up
on the represe ntation of chemists from
whose findings there is no appeal, for
the selling of alleged adulterated
goods.
1t should be clear to everybody that
the retailer is himself the victim OF
the adulteration. What can be said IN
defense of that law which Furnishes the
victim of crime or misdemeanor
What would be said of the mental level
of people who would send to jail the
victim of an assault and take no action
against the assailant?

Abutments To Be Filled in.

Xmas Shoppers Out in Force.

The near approach of the Christmas
season is being heralded in this city
in many ways, but one of the most
noticeable manifestations of the ad-
vent of the Yuletide j. the steadily
increasing number of shoppers that
throng the Danville stores. Last even
ing many persons were on the streets,
aud nearly all were bent on gift pur
chasing expeditions.
In the toyland stores especially large
crowds are to be found, many bring
ing the little ones to see the wonder
ful collection OF toys. This season is
always a delight to the children.
The windows of the stores are also
beginning to reflect the brightness of
the season. Many have taken on their
Holiday attire. and are beautiful in
their festive decorations. The merch-
ants of Danville deserve great credit
for the attractiveness that is always a
feature Of the stores at Christmas time

Quail to Be Distributed.

Yesterday the committee, appointed
by the Danville Rifle and Gun Club
to collect funds for the purchase Of
quail for distribution was busy solicit
ing aid among the sportsmen in this
vicinity, and met with encouraging
success.
Enough money was subscribed TO
warrant the purchase of an additional
ten dozen of the birds. This, together
with the twelve dozen quail that the
Club decided to buy, will make twenty
two dozen to distribute. Not all of
the sportsmen have been seen, how
ever, so in all probability the number
will exceed the twenty two dozen now
pledged.
Anyone desiring to order birds and
wishing to take advantage of the club
rates, can leave their order with Rob
ert Y. Gearhart, Treasurer of the Dan
Vile Rifle and Gun Club. The quail
can be obtained for 800 a dozen and
can be taken as soon as the consign-
meut reaches this city.

Holding Church Fair on Sund.

Despite the fact that the church au-
thoIities are violently opposed to the
scheme, the church fair in the base
ment of Shamokin house of worship
is open to the public Sunday evenings
and there is great Indignation over
the deseoration of the holy day.
The fair is run full blast and one of
the prominent features is the wheel OF
fortune giving each and every one a
chance to win prize.
Although the profits resulting from
the fair are turned over for good
cause, there is great objection over the
practice of conducting the place Of
amusement openly on Sunday even
iDgs.
During the progress OF the fair Sun
day evening, Wallie Bellskey, of On
eida street, and Joseph Zubky, of Mo
hawk street, Shamokin, got into an al
tercation over a girl. y fight ensued
and Wallie laid his antagonist out for
some time by dealing him several
wicked blows on the head with " bill
w." The defeated youth was uncon-
sclous for some time and was severely
cut about the head.

CENY BY BAILEE

Saturday afternoon p. Miller, farm
er residing in Liberty township, was
placed under $500 bail by Squire Dali
ton for his appear Iuce at Court to an
swer the charge of larceny by bailee
The prosecutor was Benjamin Mill
er, a junk dealer of this city. He testi-
| fed TO having visite the farm OF the
defen liant on November 28, last and
negotiated for the puTcha3e of lot Of
old iron, at 40 cents pur hundred. He
paid 50 on account, and left for home
with the understanding that he was to
return in few days and get the iron
On Monday, December ). he went back
and upon looking around, discovered
that the pile of iron that he alleges
was the one he had purchased, was
not as large as it had b3en at the time
of his first visit. In fact he said. only
few pieces of it remained aud as they
were of an inferior quality, he refused
to take them. He asked p. Miller " hat
had become of the pile. aud the latter
replied that he had sold them to Jacob
Engle that morning at 30 cents per
hundred. Continuing the prosecutor
said that he came home, and had a
warrant issued for the arrest OF p.
Miller. The latter claimed that he
made no specific agreement with Ben
jamin Miller to sell him the iron. He
came there on November 2S, aud said
he wanted load of iron He did not
say whether he wanted scrap or cast
iron. nor did he mention how many
hundred weight he desired to secure.
II had seven piles of iron about my
premises. He simply said he wanted
iron, and that he would be back in
few days. He offered me 81 to bind
the bargain. At first | refused to take
it, but when he insisted that | should,
l put it in my pocket. Jacob EngIe
came to my place on the morning of
Dece nb3r 5, and | sold him 1900
pounds of iron at 80 cents per hundred.
Later in the day Benjamin Miller put |
in an appearance again. He threw a
load of iron into his wagon, then he /.
got mad and threw it Oft, saying ne
didn't want it. gave him back his I
50 aud he threw 1t on the grouni, |
where it buried itself in the snow.
After he went away l picked it out of
the snow aud put it in my pocket.
Yes, have it now" ne replied TO a

strste. Benjamin Miller was held in
