The burglar who wishes to keep
pace with the times is now obliged to
wear gloves. There were two youths
charged at Manchester sessions with
burglary n short time ago. and they
stated the reason they wore gloves
was because they did not want to leave
their finger impressions on the wine

will be seen readily how It is that
burglars must row wear gloves. There
have been several examples lately OF

Bad Fall From Cherry Tree.

John Cook, the thirteen year old son
of Millard f. Cook, Upper Mulberry
street, took a fearful plunge from the
top of a tall cherry tree yesterday af.
ternoon and sustained broken arm, q
broken leg and other injuries.
The tree is OH the Cook premises.
How the accident occurred is not ex-
oily known. The boy was among the
top branches of the tree and it is sup
posed that one of the small limbs brok Q
under his weight or bent in such q
manner as to cause him to slip off. At
all events ne took drop of some
twenty five feet to the ground. In his
fall he struck the lower limbs and in
this way he received several cuts and
bruises in addition to the more serious
injury sustained when he struck the
ground.
He was terribly shocked by the fall,
although he was not rendered uncon-
scious. 1t was evident that he was SER
iously injured; lie was carried into the
house and DR.. Curry was called.
An examination revealed that his
! left thigh was fractured and that his
right arm was broken just above the
wrist. In each instance the fracture
was complete. Several scalp won nds,
not serious in their nature. we're sus
| tanned in the fall.
DR.. Curry set the broken bones an(
dressed the other injuries, after whiol
last evening the boy was resting easily

Farmers Face a Difficulty.

The farmers who attend the curb.
stone market by this time have been
fully informed of the action taken by
council requiring them to attend on
next Monday morning instead of the
morning following, July 4th., when
Mill street will-be too much crowded
to admit of the wagons.
The farmers do not dispute the wis
dom of changing market day on this
occasion, but they do not see how they
can arrange to bring supply of pro-
duce in to town on Monday morning.
Picking cherries and preparing garden
truck involves a good deal Of work,
which can not be done on Saturday if
the goods are to be fresh and salable.
Therefore, unless they work on Sun
day, the farmers declare they will be
unable to have load of produce ready
for Monday morning. They take the
vie Y that they should be permitted to
come into town Monday afternoon and
occupy their places along the Mill
street curb. good many are not with
out hope that Council will take this
view of the matter and agree to change
the hour of market from morning to
afternoon. III view of the crowds com
ing to Danville the vendors in mark ct
expect many big orders for the Fourth
of July which will have to be filed on
Monday.

May Remain in Bloomsbury.

From present indications Blooms
burg will not lose DR.. w. p. Eveland
from the pastorate of the First Meth
odist church, an announcement that
will be source of satisfaction to the
townspeop!e generally irrespective of
church connections. for few men have
ever held pastorate in Bloomsbury
who have enjoyed the esteem and re-
gard in which DIR. Eveland is held.
The recently elected directors of the
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary at
their meeting Thursday took no action
on the matter of the presidency of the
college. thinking it not a propitious
time.
Regarding DR.. Eveland's course in
the matter the Williamsport Sun says: {:
"The Rev. DR.. Eveland, of Blooms.
burg, who was elected to the presi-
dency at meeting of the old board of
directors OH June 9. declined the elec-
tion with the request that the new
board bo free to vote for whom they
cared to. Directors who were present
at the meeting say that this manly
course on the part of DIR. Eveland will
certainly not prejudice the case of DR..
Eveland when the election is held. -

From present Indications the big
time at Danville, that Is scheduled to
take place on the Fourth of July, will

the celebration of Independence. is
guaranteed day of festival and fun
that will not soon be forgotten.
Although it is week away from
the birthday anniversary of the
Independence of this glorious United
States, the county seat town of Mon
tour, is commencing to don it's holiday
attire and ere the day arrives it prom
ises to vie in brillianoy even with
the garments worn by Uncle Sam and
Miss Liberty, themselves.
A decorating company. from Read
ing, the one that did the display work
for Williamsport, at the time that the
recent conclave was held there. is al
ready on the ground and has contracts
for decorating many of the business
places.
The committee of arrangements that
has this big Danville celebration in
charge. has spared no trouble nor ex-
pense in it's efforts to have this day
prove a successful one and the COM
mittee claims that it has been most
successful in it's efforts. In the mean.
ii me. the whole country round is saw.
ing its best duds and anxiously await
ing the arrival of the eventful day.

Peach Crop No Failure.

With the recurrence of the peach
season Its utter failure is yearly
prophesied. This prophecy is made as
regularly as the advent of the season.
Indeed it has come to be recognized as
one of the yearly predictions. and the
people look for, expect and are pres
pared for it when the time for it ar
rives. 1t has come to be such fixture
that they would be disappointed were
it not made. This year, however. the
indications are that despite the predio-
tions the peach crop will be unusually
heavy, and it is with pleasure and sur
prise that one reads news like the fol-
lowing:
"On the 10000 little three year old
trees on Col. W. f. Reynolds farm
near Bellefonte, there are SO many
peaches that workmen are pruning
them off to prevent breaking down the
trees yet there will be 5000 bushels.

Clean Up the Old Canal.

Many persons find it difficult to be-
lieve that our Borough Council, which
all along has shown itself so thorough
ly wide awake and progr, ssivc, intends
to let tile bottom of the canal in its
pres cut reoky and nauseatinc condi-
ton lie during the Fourth of L.ly. 1t
was thought that the matter would be
attended to at the last moment aud
the old waterway cleaned up at least
in the vicinity of Mill street culvert,
who nee for a square east and west the
old ditch presents it's very worst ap-
pearaufc. But Council ut its special
meeting Saturday night fall d to take
any actinn OIL the canal. although it
decided to decorate City Hall for the
Fourth in m appropriate manner.
The throngs on Mill street noxt Tues
day " i'll 10 doubt gaze with admiration
on Old City Hall under its artistic
dress of flags and like decorations, but
what their emotions will he when they
gaze dawn upon the dirty canal with
quite an tier matter. People are in
clined to think that the omission
was not in ended Saturday night and
that Council will yet decide to clean
up at least q portion of the canal for
the Foulth
A little work would go n great way
toward making things presentable.
Two or three men in day could rake
up and cart away the unsightly ac-
oumulation of rubbish which lines the
banks and the bottom, after which a
drain could be opened which would
carry off the worst of the stagnant wat
er. E' -...t .sT
The next thing done should be to in
force the Borough ordinance as we'll
as the new rubbish law and prevent
people from using the old canal as a
place for getting rid of their garbage,
ashes and other odds and ends which
accumu late about the premises.
