A Rush for the Carriership.

Evidently large proportion of the
population in this country are of the
opinion that position under Uncle
Sam is the one thing needful to soften
down the harsh realities of life and
make all burdens rest easier. This is
we'll illustrated in our own town by
the rush for the carriership on +. f. d.
route No. 2 made vacant by the resig-
nation of H. II. Stettler For this posi-
tion in all there are some thirty five
applicants.
An odd feature of the case is that
the applicants are all employed and are
willing to step down and out from the
positions they are holding and enter
upon the carriership. 1t is probably
not so much an increase of remunera-
tion that appeals to these men rs it is
the permanency of the position. The
eagerness with which such "A large nun
ber of men seek the carriership-men
who evidently have given the matter
full consideration-would seem to dis
prove that the position carries with it
conditions that are burdensome, or in
short that the position of +. f. Il. car
rier does not pay.
The examination will take place on
next Saturday week. According to
indications the class will be one of the
largest ever examined. Only one car
rier is needed, but certain number of
good average will be placed on the list
of eligibles to fill any vacancies that
may occur within specified limit

Less Coal Is Consumed.

The boilers recently overhauled at
the Water Works and from which five
bushels of scale were extracted are now
on duty again. The theory that every
one sixteenth of an inch of scale adds
ten per cent. to the cost of fuel is we'll
sustained by the experience of the
firemen, who state that since the re-
moval of the scale their labor is con-
siderably easier and that they are not
oblige to shovel nearly so much coal
in a given time.
The second set of boilers were also
opened, but they were found in first
class condition containing little or no
scale. Both boilers are now good for
another year of steady service during
which time, if the hot water filter sys-
tenn. does what is expected of it, there
will be no deposit of scale in the boil
ers.
The water works and the light plant
are now both in first class condition
and what is just as gratifying they
are in safe and competent hands. The
citizens of Danville have faith in mu-
nicipal ownership as demonstrated by
the fact that they have adopted it both
in the matter of water and street light
ing. No expense in either department
has been spared to procure first class
and modern equipment. Both plants
are much admired by visitors.

Rev. Stevens Presiding Elder.

Rev. Emory NJ. Stevens, of Williams
port, will receive the appointment as
presiding elder of the Danville district
of the Methodist church if the report
announced by the Williamsport
News" is true. This is question
whichhung in suspense for some time.
and the outcome is anxiously awaited
by all members of that denomination.
The Williamsport paper makes the
following statement " The Evening
News has learned from a reliable
authority that at the recent cabinet
meeting of Bishop Berry and the pre-
siding elders of the Central Pennsyl-
vania Methodist conference at Harris
burg, it was decided that the Rev.
Emory NJ. Stevens of Williamsport,
should take charge of the Danville dis
trict as the presiding elder at the COM
ing conference. While this action has
been looked for by Mr.. Stevens friends
there was enough uncertainty about it
to keep all concerned in suspense.

NELSON GETS
DECISION

Battling" Nelson was given the de-
cision on points in the six round bout
with Terry McGovern at the National
Athletic Club at Philadelphia last
night. The big crowd that was pres
ent was not at all pleased with the
fight, and there was a strong impress
sion that it was fixed"
The big auditorium was packed to
the doors. many from distance hav
ing come to Philadelphia to see the
fight The betting at the ring side was
slightly in favor of Nelson.
In the first two rounds the fighting
was slow and clinching frequent: Nc
Govern had the best of the argument
in these two rounds. Disapproval was
expressed by the audience with jeers
and Kisses.
In the third round the real fighting
began, Nelson gaining strength and
McGovern becoming weaker. McGov-
ern also seemed to have the best of the
third.
Iu the fourth Nelson came forward
strong and during this and the follow
ing rounds was easily the master of
the ring. McGovern stayed until the
end of the sixth.

Saturday Was Pay Day.

Saturday was pay day and as re-
suit during the evening increased ac-
tivity was discernible along all lines
of business. The activity was notice
able even at tire post office, where
wage-earners were crowding around
the money order window waiting their
turn to send money away in the mail.
The fact is stated that there are good
many employed at our mills, whose
wives and children reside at Lebanon
and other places and that these work
men like dutiful husbands and fathers
regularly remit to their families.
This has been going on for so long
that the attaches of the post office have
become accustomed to it and regularly
look forward to the evening after pay
day as busy time at the money order
window.
The non resident workmen, it is ex-
planned, consist principally of those
who came here when the Danville
Rolling Mill was started up. Houses
were not available then and the men
have never found time since when
houses of the kind to suit them could
be easily obtained.
