Hon John Barrett, United States
Minister to Panama, through the State
Department at Washington, to the In
ternatlonal Committee of the 4.M. O.
A., suggests that branches be opened
at Panama and Colon.
Mr.. Barrett i'll his letter to the State
Department writes: My suggestions
are prompted not alone by my own in
vestigation of the field, but by con-
ferences | have had with members of
the Canal Commission, Chief Engineer
Wallace, Consul, General Gudger, and
with others interested or competent to
express an opinion. That you may
have further respect for my proposal, L
would submit that l was one of those
who urged the establishment of branch
es in Shanghai and Mexico after per-
sonal investigation of the opportunity
and that l have studied what has been
done in such foreign places as Yoko-
hama, Calcutta and Bueuos Ayres.
Summed up IN few words, we
have a critical state of affairs here.
! There are already nearly 200 young
men in Panama and Colon or near
these cities, who have recently gradu
ated from American engineering in
stitutions or left agreeable surround
ings in the United States to undertake
the work here, and who have absolute
ly no place of rendezvous, entertain
ment, amusement, or worship. Ihe
only public places to which the maj
ority can possibly 90 at night are the
gambling houses or saloons. There are
two local clubs, but only few o1
these young men can afford to join
The Association will be open to mel
of all nationallties and religious faiths
as is customary. In Mexico City six
teen nations and as many faiths are
represented Such an Association
would, as III the Army, tend to min
imize the waste of manhood from dis
sipation and home.sickuess, and by it
recreative, educational and social priv
ileges, be positive boon to hundred
of men away from home.

Both of the Bloomsbury teams play

to say that the Danville teams were
not playing their usual good game.
In the sets beween Rishton and Ent,
and Gosh and Clark, Bloomsbury
won two out of the three by the fol
lowing scores; 6-3; 6-l, Danville
won one set by the score of 3-6. Maizt

Danville Lodge, No. 754 b. P. o. Elks
has again been honored by the Grand
Exalted Ruler William ]. O'Brien of
Baltimore.
Mr. Wolfe Oh Monday evening re-
ceived telegram from Mr.. O'Brien
informing him of his appointment as
member of the committee of appeals
and grievances OF the Grand Lodge of
the United States. This is one of the
most important committees OF the or
der and the appointment of Mr.. Wolfe
Is an unexpected honor which shows
the very high esteem in which he is
held by the officers of the Grand
Lodge, and not only does the honor
fall upon Mr.. Wolfe alone. but also
upon every lodge in this district.
Mr.. Wolfe's position in Elkdom is
honors through merit, his devotion
the principles Of the order have always
been his first thought. Four times IN
succession has he been elected to the
highest chair in Williamsport Lodge
No. 173, that of Exalted Ruler, and ht
has also served the state body as Dis
trict Deputy Exalted Ruler. In these
positions he has brought Williamsport
Lodge to the foremost in membership
and through his persistent efforts i
has taken leading position with the
lodges not only of the state. but Of th'
country.
Mr.. Wolfe has visited the Danvill'
lodge on several occasions, the mem
bers of which will no doubt be glad t.
know OF the appointment.

The retaining walls at the culvert
are being heightened and when the
work is completed will present much
better appearance.
On the northwest side nine feet of
stone will be laid at the highest point
and the work will slope gradually to
the end of the wall.
On the east side of the oulvert the
walls running down Canal avenue will
not be so high though several feet of
stone wilt be added. Iron ratings will
be placed on the eastern walls adding

ENGAGED IN A
TURNING MOVEMENT

ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 28.-7 AZ
a. MIN summing up the situation
today the military expert of the Russ
says it is evident from all indications
at the front, that the japanese are en-
gagged in big turning movement on
the eastward. This would give them
the advantage as heretofore, of opera
tions largely in the mountains to
which their artillery is better suited
than for movements in the open. But
in the present movement the units of
the Japanese army are necessarily los
ing touch with one another.
Their strategic position is, therefore ,
less satisfactory than at Lao Yang.
The Russ says it is question wheth.
er a decisive or even serious engage.
ment will occur at Mukden. Such an
event will depend entirely upon Gen.
Kuropatkin's views as to the exigen-
cies of the situation.
| However, one may rest certain,
the paper add. thar the sentimental
question of VII llrinn of the Chinese
tombs will not weigh with the Rus
sian commander The public must
wait patiently few days. in order to
ascertain whether there will be a big
fight at Mukden or whether the retreat
will be continued to the strong posi-
tion at Tie Pass -

Filling in RAPIDLY.

The filling in of the canal at the site
of the old Church street bridge has
proceeded rapidly and though the
thoroughf2re has been open to travel
for some time, the work is not as yet
completed.
The width to be attained is about 38
feet and will be sufficient to connect
the sidewalks on either side of the
canal bed on an even basis. The earth
excavated on Mill street has been
dumped at this point
New pavements are badly needed on
Church street Many sidewalks from
Mahoning to Lower Mulberry street
are in bad condition. A little i'm
provement would add greatly to the ap,
pearance of the street.

ARBOR DAY
OCTOBER 2Ist

Superintendent n. @. Schaetfer, of
the Department of Public Instruction
has issued the following proclamation
regarding the Autumn Arbor Day.
The proclamation is as follows:
The State of Pennsylvania now owns
set apart for the growth of trees. This
| area is more than that of Lancaster
| county (972 square mIles), the richest
agricultural county in the United
States. There are five hundred million
acres of growing forest in the United
States outside of our Insular Possess
sions. And yet it is estimated that
the annual consumption of wood is
twice as great as its growth. This fact
shows the Importance of forestry as
national industry. 1t is second only to
| agriculture.
The Pennsylvania Railroad has plant
ed thousands of trees between Harris
burg and Philadelphia and has par
chased large tracts of land for the pur-
pose of growing millions of trees that
will hereafter be needed in railway
construction. Railroads generally are
vieing with one another in the adorn-
ment of vacant lots around their pas
senger stations. The cities are Great
ing PARKS as breathing places for the
multitudes. The schools are planting
trees upon their grounds and along the
highways SO that in many instances
the school grounds rival the grounds
around the homes of the children, and
the public roads are beginning to re-
semble the best kept streets of the
cities. Increased attention to tree
planting brings increased knowledge
of plant life and begets increased re-
gard for everything that is beautiful
in nature.
In accordance with the Act of AS
sembly the Governor annually appoints
Arbor Days which are observed. in the
, month of April. Since many country
schools are not in session at that time
, and since trees can be planted in the
= fall as we'll as in the spring of tn
/ year, it has become customary 20 oh
, serve an Autumn Arbor day, the es
sential thing being to get the trees III
to the ground, and to give them {
r chance to grow.
/ Friday. October 81, 1904, is designat
ed as Autumn Arbor Day with the re
: quests that suitable exercises be ar
ranged for the day. Let the hom
newspapers be used to create publi
+ sentiment in favor of village improve
: ment. Let the schools discuss tin
7 events which transpire under tree
) like the Charter Oak the Liberty Elm
the William Penn tree, and other
which have become famous in history
Let the economic value of trees b
t discussed, and above all let the tree
} be planted upon the school grounds
: around the homes and along the high
, ways so that the day may be protitabl
( from the economic point of view a
we'll as valuable for educational Pun
t poses.

OemetarY Road Needs Repairs.

There is no road i'll this section
that is more travelled than the one
leading from the d. l.. q W. railroad
to the Lutheran, Fairviaw, Episcopal
ian and Jewish cemeteries and it is
almost safe TO say that there is none
in so bad "a condition.
This thoroughfare from one end to
the other has been badly washed out
and is overgrown with weeds that in
many instances hide deep ruts.
Part of the road lies in the Borough
and the upper portion of it is ombrac-
ed in Mahoniug township 1t is hard
to travel even when kept in good or
der, but under present conditions is
considered dangerous.
There is scarcely day but what
there is heavy travel on this thorough
fare and the authorities should sec to
it that the proper repairs are made be.
fore an accident occurs.

even greater number than Is boating,
is walking. AT this time of the year
when the bracing air makes the blood

Frost, in his nocturnal visits, is just

once INDUCED in will lead to many

The tennis enthusiasts of our town

of the season during which one may

Dangerous Sidewalk.

The torn-up condition of the paw
ments on Mill strees is responsible for
accidents of more or less serious ma
ture and that someone has not been
badly injured is extremely fortunate.
The pavement leading from the Phil
ips grocery onto the culvert is an
especially dangerous spot. Four peo-
pie fell at this point Tuesday, for
tunately escaping unhurt.
The condition of the sidewalks are
Of course excusable to some eXtent ow-
ing to the Improvements being made
but the dangerous places could be
made safer by the erection of tenn
porary walks.
