defeated the Ashland aggregation at
the Armory New Year 5 afternoon by
a score of 81 TO 20.
The Ashland team is composed Of
good fast basket ball players, but the
members of the visiting team, how
ever, were not able to make much of a
showing. They played hard, siren
uous game individually, but did not
seem able to play together. They set
a fast pace but the Danville tossers
were nearly always just a little faster

ever seen at the Armory was done in

SIZE Won WAGER
BY l2 Mile WALK

Over the hills to Danville is every
step of twelve regulation miles, but
the trip by foot is only a jolly lark ON
a moonlight night. At least Miss Mary
Beaver, of Danville, a sister of Mrs.
Russell Kelly, of Sunbury, thinks so,
and she ought to know for she feasted
on "Huylers' New Years day for
making the trip.
1t was all the result of a dare. New
Years eve party of young folks gath
cred at Miss Bertha Cromwell's Dan
willie home TO bid adieu to old 1903
and welcome young Mr.. 1906. Cards
and games not being available to hurry
off the old year on account of it being
Sunday. a moonlight stroll was sug-
gested by one Of the young gallants.
All agreed and pairing off in couples
the party sailed forth for promen-
ade. Conversation drifted from one
subject to another until finally il reach
ed romance and then "dares. The
latter proved to be Miss Beavers long
suit
One of the young men about mid
night remarking that Miss Beaver did
not dare to walk to Sunbury the young
lady quickly accepted the challenge.
Calling for volunteer from the cot
erie of young men TO accompany her
Miss Beaver was somewhat embarrass-
ed in making her choice, as all were
lust dying" to serve her. Young Mr..
Paul Vannan, however, was the chos-
en- one. With merry hurrah from
the others as a send off, Miss Beaver
setting the pace, which was indeed
quite lively 1.-THE dare couple crossed
the bridge to South Danvllle and
struck out over the hills for Sunbury.
Ping pong ideas were cast to the winds
by Miss Beaver and pedestrian records
were smashed with ease. On more
than one occasion her escort complain
ed of being tired and wanted to rest,
but she turned a deaf ear TO all such
seemingly foolish ideas and kept cut
ting off mile after mile, while the man
in the moon with the smile that wont
rub off nodded his head III encourage
ment and acted as referee. No foot
pads were met on the way and so fal
as is known the trip was without q
single sensational incident. But 7 a.
IN. New Years Day when Mr.. and
Mrs. Kelley came downstairs they
found the couple in their parlor anc
were greeted thusly, Happy New

tie game, to judge from what Master
Stubbes says about it in his "Anato-
ME of Abuses" published in 1888:
For. as concerning football playing,

of recreation, bloody and murther-
ing practice than a sport or pastime,

throw him and to pickle him on his
nose, though it be on hard stones, so
that by this meanes sometimes their
necks are broken sometimes their
backs, sometimes their legs, some
times their armes, sometimes one part
thrust out of joynt, sometimes anoth-
er; sometimes the noses gush out with
blood: sometimes their eyes start out.

TWO REGISTRA-
TION DISTRICTS

The new act to provide for the i'm

deaths throughout the Commonwealth
went into effect on Monday The new
law if carried out will entail consider
able work upon physicians, undertak-
ers, sections and others and these have
all been apprised of their duties in the
premises by copies of the Act forward
ed to them by the Bureau OF Vital
Statistics.
Montour county has been divided in
to two Registration Districts. DR.. c.
Shultz has been appointed Registrar
in one of these consisting Of Danville
Borough, Mayberry, Cooper, Mahon-
ing, Valley, Liberty and West Hem
lock townships. OF the other District
taking in the remainder Of the county
William NJ Robinson, of Washington
vile has been appointed as Registrar.
Each local registrar is obliged to
have a deputy registrar whose duty it
is to act in his stead in case of alb
sence, illness or disability Miss Har-
riet Mapstone has been appointed
deputy in DR. Shultz's district
Section provides that the body of
any person whose death occurs i'll the
State shall not be inferred, nor deposit
ed in a vault or tomb nor removed
from nor into any registration district
| until permit for burial, removal or
other disposition shall be properly is
sued by the registrar of the registra-
tion district in which death occurs.
The certificate Of death is a vOlum-
inous affair and contains % items, the
statistical particulars covering every
conceivable circumstance of life and
death. 1t asks for not only place of
death, street and number, date and
place of birth, sex, color, single. mar
ried. widowed or divorced, but also
the name of father and maiden name
of mother, birth place of each, state
or foreign country.

the disposition of the body must be
signed by the undertaken or person
acting as such. The undertaken shall
be responsible for obtaining and filing
the certificate of death with the reg
istrar and securing a burial or remOv-
al permit
The undertaken shall deliver the
burial permit to the sexton and no sex
tons shall inter or otherwise dispose
of body unless it is accompanied by
a burial, removal or transit permit.
The medical certificate shall be made
ard signed by the physician last in at.
tendance on the deceased. Like the
certificate of death it is sweeping in
the extreme and involves no end OF
work. The registration of births omit.
no details and the attending physician
or midwife who has to file a certificate
will have plenty TO do under the new
act

WEIMER'S
JOYFUL NEWS

Enthusiastically the happlest man III
Danyille Yesterday was Jacob Weimer,
the Hebrew shoemaker on Lower Mul-
berry street, who had good reason TO
believe that his wife and four children
had fallen victims To the cruel mObS
at Kishenev. The noon delivery OF
mail brought him letter from his
wife. which conveyed the joyful tidings
that they were all alive and well-that
they had already got beyond the land
of the Gar with its bloodshed and
horror and were safe at Amsterdam
awaiting the departure of the ship that
is to bring them to the new world,
where lies safety, freedom and where
awaits them the love and protection OF
a kind husband and father, who risk
ed so much for the little family's vel
| fare. In two weeks time, the letter
stated, they would all be in Danville.
The shoemaker laughed in his JOY
and he fairly danced as he told of re
ceiving the letter and tried to explain
| its contents. His wife had written
that the children were on the tiptoe of
delight and expectation AT the pros
poets of meeting the father, from whom
they had been separated for nearly
three years In the interim the baby,
| six months old when the parting took
place, has grown to be quite boy
as shown by a photograph received a
few months ago and is now wearing
| trousers.
The shoemaker has only a short time
longer to wait until his family Will
be with him Not until then will he
know the full chapter of thrilling events

A MATTER FOR COUNCIL.

Those OF our citiZucs whose avoca-
tions Saturday night or yesterday led
them over the canal culvert at Ferry
street beheld good object lesson to
show what may follow when the au
thorities fail to exact of the masses a
proper respect for the municipality or
tolerate practices that are out Of all
accord with cleanliness, hygiene and
civic pride.
That the old canal, an eyesore to be
gin with, has been rendered double
unsightly by the dumping Of ashes and
what not over the banks and along the
edge of the culyert under the pretense
of aiding to fill up the old water way
is one of those facts that are self evid-
ent This is bad enough, but as the
offenders are not interfered with it Is
not strange that the practice has been
carried further. The acme was reach
ed on Saturday when one individual
dumped big load Of trash right on
=
street The term trash is used ad-
visedly, as among the contents with
ashes as a base were turkey feathers,
old excelsior. broken bottles and con
demned potatoes. The load was not
even properly leveled over, but seemed
literally dumped on the street, the
driver no doubt finding excuse in the
fact that there was a slight depression
III the ground on that spot. By last
evening the deposit was pretty well
leveled over by the action of the wheels
passing, when the above named ar
ticles were some which had worked
their way to the surface.
OF course our Borough Council will
never tolerate anything like this. Be
sides the man who dumped the trasl
on the spot is liable to arrest for viol.
ating the State law passed by the last
Legislature, which prohibits the cast
ing Of trash of this or any other sort
upon the streets of any Borough. 1t i,
| certainly somebody's duty to get busy
at once and discover who dumped the
trash in the street
The next thing that Council should
do is to stop once and for all the dump
! ing of ashes and all that is implied by
! the name into the canal If the ole
waterway is to be filled up go about i
in some well sustained systematic way
that viii bring results and not encour
age niggardly and slovenly practice
that only add to the eyesore.
| Again, if street in the heart of tn,
Borough needs filling up let some ma
terial suitable for road building bt
selected and not a lot of stuff that il
disgusting to the eye and that will b,
scattered over the square by the frs
wind that rises.
Civic pride should be cultivated
which can not be accomplished in I
better way than by enforcing the Bor
ough ordinance, which prohibits the
dumping of ashes anywhere within
| the Borough. What a stranger i'm
preston might have been who entere,
town by way of Ferry street yesterda,
it would be hard TO imagine.
