High School Minstrels.

Playing before a well filled house
the High School Minstrels finished
their seasons engagement Saturday
evening.
The performance was Of a high grade,
while every feature of the enterprise
reflected credit upon the partici-
pants. The end men-McCov, Jacobs,
Hartt and Raver-kept the audience
in an uproar of laughter with their
brand new jokes and pointed 'scalds"
Oh High School pupils. InteIspersed
through the program were well rend-
cred choruses and solos by Moore, Nc
Henry aud Harrington. The funny
farce stick to Your Word Gal, - con-
cluded the evening performance.
Inquiry has brought out the fact that
the boys gave the entertainment for
the purpose of making up some de-
ficiency in their athletic expenses, pre-
ferring to earn the money rather than
accent contributions which friends Of
the school had volunteered to make.
The teachers are authority for the fact
that the grade of work in the schools
has not suffered while preparations for
the. entertainment were under way.
Not to be outdone by the boys the
girls of the High School gave very
pleasant Leap Year Tea Party" Fri
day evening after the entertainment,
to which the faculty and the young
minstrels were invited guests.
Judging from the large audience at
the three performances and the nomin
al expenses the boys must have realiz-
ed all they anticipated financially, and
buoyed by their success and indulgence
in fun they are now ready for the last
great effort in school work attending

Y. NJ. G. A. NOTES.

Troadwel Island, Alaska, Young
Mems Christian Association lost its
building by fire "a few weeks ago. but
is now occupying the Jail for tempor-
arv quarters. Since the Association
was organized a year or more ago and
every one of the miners on the pay
roll Of the company (some 200) became
members, the saloons and gambling
places lost their business and the Jail
has had but one or two occupants.
During the cUnfiagratiou in which sew
eral buildings were burned and the
destruction Of the entire town was
threatened, there was "a scarcity of
water, but the bucket brigade used the
beer to stay the flames in one of the
big saloons on the edge of the town.
The Y NJ G. 4. is planning to re-
build and will be aided as before by
the mining company. The building
had Just been insured for IS. 900 icost
$50, ,OOo.)
A branch of tho Naval Young Men 5
Christian Association has been opened
at Pensacola, Fla, for the men of the
squadron during their several week 5
visit at that port. One hundred cots
have been secured and the rooms fitted
up in an attractive manner for the
men while on shore leave. Games,
correspondence and lunch h-room facili-
ties are some of the privileges offered.
The building secured was formerly one
of the worst dives'in the city. These
rooms are open all night, as it has
been found impossible to close them.
More than 100 beds are required to ac-
commodate the mon. Music boxes, a
pianola, a parrot and restaurant are
kept in constant action. On one day
/ 200 visits were made at the rooms.
Ten railroad companies, centering
at st. Paul and Minneapolis, have
united in aiding in the establishment
of a Railroad Young Mems Christian
Association for their employees at

A $50, coo building, erected for stock

turned over by the railroad companies
to the Association and opened recent

opening, said, Il look for the rapid

Hlte Refused New Trial.

Jacob iite has been refused a new
trial and will have to serve his sem
tcuce in the Northumberland county
prison. Judge Auteu handed down
his decision IN the case Monday morn
ing. which is as follows:
"All the reasons assigned relates TO
alleged errors in the charge to the
jury. We have examined the charge
with considerable care and are Of the
opinion that the defendant suffered
no injustice at our hands in that re-
gard. The attention of the jury was
specifically called to the question of
reasonable doubt aud adequate instruc-
tions were given thereon. We think
too that they were properly advised
relative to the evidence of good re-
putation and of corroboration. The
motion is overruled and new trial
refused. We also refuse to arrest the
judgment "
All efforts to secure new trial for
Hite having failed he will he brought
before Judge Auten and sentenced on
the other charges upon which the jury
found him guilty. Along with his
sentence of nine months imposed at
the conclusion of the trial the sen
tence of Hite will be such that it will
be some length Of time before he will
have his freedom

GUARANTEEING
IN BLOOMSBURG

The smallpox scare which has now
fastened itself on the upper end of
Columbia county because of the pre-
valence of the score or more of small
pox cases in the townships contiguous
to Benton, has spread to Bloomsbury
where the Board of Health. after due
consideration, have quarautined the
home of Benson II. Creveling, of Iron
street. between Third aud Fourth
streets
This action was taken by the board
at a special meeting because of the
fact that James Shultz. of Divide, one
of the victims of the disease, and the
school director who attended the school
directors convention in bloomsbury
last Wednesday a week while a victim
of the smallpox, was the guest over
night at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Creveling. the latter being his sister.
As soon as State Health Officer Ar
ment acquainted the Bloomsbury
Health Board they acted promptly in
the matter and directed Health Officer
Webb TO establish the quarantine. This
was done Friday morning and the
family of Mr.. Creveling will be de-
tanned in their home fourteen days
when it is thought that all possible
chance of the spread of the disease to
their family will be over. When Mr..
Webb informed the family that it was
necessary to establish the quarantine
they fell in readily with the sugges-
tion and promised the Bloomsbury
Board of Health all possible assistance
by observing a strict quarantine of
their family, realizing that it was the
only means by which the danger of the
spread of the disease to Bloomsbury
could be removed
When Mr.. Shultz was guest at
their home they, as we'll as Mr.. Shultz
were ignorant of the disease from
which he was suffering, and it was
some time later, before he was able to
realize that he really had the dread
disease.
Reports from the northern end OF
! the county were to the effect that there
had been no change in the situation
there and that no new cases had de-
veIoped Most of those which now
exist are under the care of DR.. Smith
Gall, of Jamison City, who was first
called in on the cases, and who was
the first to pronounce them smallpox,
and in whose diagnosis DR.. 5. b. Ar
ment and Dr. Mckee concurred.

Banks Close hnril l,

Good Friday. legal holiday, this
year falls on April /. AS this is an
nual settlement day, and it is claimed
that general observation of this holi-
day by the banks will cause much in
convenience, specially for people from
distance who might overlook the
fact that it was holiday. In num-
Der of cities and towns the banks will
'emain open. The law provides that in
Case note falls due on legal holiday
it may be paid the day following. 1t
is urged that trouble and lawsuits
might result should the banks remain
open in such cases as notes falling due
or checks going to protest. 1t might
be we'll for all who have their annual
settlements on that day to remember
that it will fall on Good Friday aud
govern their affairs accordingly. But
the rule that governs as to notes and
protests will doubtless apply in all
other transactions.

Moving Pictures Pleased the Audience.

The entertainment given in the

Edwin J. Hadley Moving Pitcure
Company was much enjoyed by good
sized audience Mr.. Hadley for num-
be1 of years was associated with Ly-
man H. Howe, whose pictures have
been seen so often in Danvlle.
Mr.. Hadley has we'll succeeded in
almost entirely eliminating the flicker
which is so annoying on most moving
pictures His operation of the machine
on Saturday night was first class.
Among the excellent pictures shown
were a daring train robbery on west
ern railroad and splendid production
showing the principal events in the
life of Napoleon, the Great.
Mr.. Hadley has one of the best ex-
ibitions of moving pictures on the
road and a return date will be looked
forward to with much pleasure.
