EARTH SINKING ON
SHAMOkIN STREETS

Residents in the vicinity of Clay,
Strawberry and Pearl streets, Shamok-
in, are greatly alarmed over the settl-
ing of the earth in that vicinity. With
in the past few days several apertures
have been discovered and while none
of them seem as yet tC be very deep it
is feared that the earth may open up
at any moment and swallow up or
cause to fall down several of the houses
in that neighborhood.
The largest hole noticed so far is on
Clay street within three feet of the P.
& R. Railway tracks. The opening is
about eighteen inches wide and three
feet deep. 1t was first discovered on
Sunday and was filled with dirt and
ashes Monday. During Monday night
the dirt sank to depth of about six
inches but no further settings have
been noticed.
The residents of Shamokin ascribe
the settling to the old "fiery slope"
workings which were located in that
vicinity and which run east under
Polish hill.
The fact that the railroad is so near
also adds alarm as the vibrations caus-
ed by the heavy coal trains undoubted
ly shake the earth in that vicinity and
conduce to the settling.

ELDERS AND BISHOPS
AT HARRISBURG

An important church conference is
in session at Harrisburg. Bishop Ber-
ry, who will preside at the Central
Pennsylvania Methodist Episcopal con-
ference at Tyrone on March 2s is meet
ing the presiding elders of the confer
ence to consider the matter of filling
the vacancy of presiding elder of the
Danville district caused by the death
of Rev. Amos S. Baldwin. of Sun
bury.
1t is said that the conference will
decide whether the Rev. Emory NJ.
Stevens is to be the choice for presid-
ing elder, as it is believed he will be.
Besides Rev. Stevens only two other
ministers are prominently mentioned
for the office, the Rev. B. @. Connor,
of Altoona, and the Rev. r. H. Gil
bert, of Berwick. At present the Rev.
George W. Stevens is looking after the
affairs of his own, the Harrisburg dis
trict, and the Danville district also.
Bishop Berry, after the session in
Harrisburg, will go to Williampsort
where on Friday evening he will de-
liver an address at Dickinson Semin-.

FEBRUARY COURT
PROCEEDING
fCon'inued from First Page.


the case of Commonwealth VS.. Peter
Dietrich, charging murder.
District Attorney Gearhart explain
ed to the court that he had a bill
against Edward Burns charging him
with aggravated assault and battery,
but that the prosecutrix in the case
had failed to appear. Inasmuch as
there were two other witnesses the
court ordered that the bill be sent to
the grand jury and directed that body
to act upon it and Immediately after
wards to examine the public buildings
returning to the court room with their
finding in the bill and their regular
report at 4 O'Clock.
At A o'clock the grand jury return
ed true bill in the case of Cmmon-
wealth vs.. Edward Burns and present.
ed its report as to the condition of the
public buildings. After this the grand
jury was discharged and court adjourn
ed to reconvene at 10 O'Clock this
morning, when the case against Diet.
rich was to have gone on trial.
Soon after adjournment the news
reached Danville that Judge Little was
dead. This threw all plans into con-
fusion and it was hard to tell what
effect it might have on the further
conduct Of court. Judge Staples in
formed News representative that at
10 o'clock this morning out of respect
to the memory of Judge Little cour,
would adjourn. Meanwhile the Sheriff
was instructed to notify as many Of
the traverse jurors as he could reacl
Of what had occurred and request then
not to appear this morning. Thost
who can not be reached by telephone
or otherwise and come into town ex
peot1ng to serve will receive their pay
for the day. What further p an may
be adopted in the premises will be
made known this morning, but there
seems to be little doubt but that cour
will be called off indie finitely, pend
ing the appointment of new Judge.
Danville intelligencer. [volume] (Danville, Pa.) 1859-1907, 1906-03-02

February court adjourned Tuesday
morning and the trial of the Dietrich
case and all matters pertaining to the
regular term goes over until May.
Court convened at 10 o'clock a. IN.
with His Honor Judge Staples, and
Associates Blee and Wagner on the
bench.
Court sat but few minutes, mere
ly long enough for Judge Staples to
make the following announcement:
1t becomes our painful duty to an
nounce the death Of Hon. Robert r.
Little, President Judge of this dis
trict.
"God in His infinite wisdom has
seen fit to end his labors in this world
and to take him to that bourne from
which no traveller ever returns. Out
Of respect to his memory this court
stands adjourned.
On Thursday Of next week, March
9th. the rule to show cause why re-
ceiver should not be appointed in the
case Of the Danville & Sunbury Street
Railway Company will be argued be-
fore Judge Staples at this city. Be-
yond this, it seems, no provision can
be mode for disposing of any Of the
important matters before court and all
are awaiting the appointment of a
Judge to succeed Hon. r. r. Little in
this district District Attorney @. P.
Gearhart yesterday stated that the two
cases-Commonwealth VS.. Peter Diet
rich and Commonwealth VS.. Edward
Burns--in which true bills have been
found, cannot come up for trial before
the next regular term, which is in
May.
1t was quite O'Clock Monday even
ing before Sheriff George Maiers was
Apprised of Judge Little's death-that
owing to this fact court would adjourn
and that 1t would devolve upon him to
get word to the traverse jurors-i in ord
or to prevent them from coming in to
court yesterday. That he must have
done some lively hustling is attested
by the noteworthy fact that of the
sixty jurors drawn he reached all but
seven and these appeared at the court
house yesterday morning and were
paid for the day. When it is explain
ed that the jurors receive two dollars
per day and mileage the considerable
item saved to the county by the Sher-
IFS quick action in serving notice at
once becomes apparent. He had prac-
tically the whole county to cover and
only a few hours time in which to ac-
oomplish his task. 1t was another fine
illustration showing the usefulness
and the efficacy of the rural telephone,
which aided very much in getting the
nsws abroad.

TO PROSECUTE DE-
FIANT TEACHERS

Health Commissioner Samuel G.
Dixon, acting for the State Depart
ment of Health will at once prosecute
q number of teachers in different parts
of the State who have absolutely re-
fused to comply with the vaccination
law and who in defiance of this law
are admitting unvaccinated children
to their schools. The attorneys for the
department have all their evidence in
hand for a number of these cases.
Health Commissioner Dixon has also
arranged to secure evidence in all
other cases where the law has been
violated.
In addition, proceedings are to be
taken against school directors and
others who have conspired to have the
law defied. The commissioner stated
Saturday that every effort has been
made to point out to the teachers their
duty under the law. He has carried
on a vigorous campaign of education.
Thousands of circulars setting forth
the true facts in reference to vaccina-
tion as protection against smallpox
have been sent out through every
county in the state. He has written
thousands of letters to teachers, school
directors and parents personally, en-
deavoring to overcome the prejudice
against vaccination and to counterbal-
ance the effect of the literature circu-
lated by the i-vaccinationists.
81 cannot express too strongly, y
said Health Commissioner Dixon Sat.
urday, my appreciation of the sup
port have had from the public press
throughout Pennsylvania in educating
the parents Of our school children tc
the necessity of protecting their little
ones against smallpox"

new PRIMARY
ELECTION Law


passed by the legislature is now up to
the governor for signature. The OPP
ponents of the new measure claim it
is unconstitutional because the bill
carries two subjects, elections and a
liquor clause; that the latter is not
mentioned in the title and that its furs
ther provisions permitting borough
and townships to hold elections other
than those specified in the bill is speci'
al legislation.
The new law goes into effect Nov
ember 1, 1906. This date was decided
on for the purpose of permitting city
and county commissioners to adjust
their rules to suit and also that the
bill may not interfere with the ap-
preaching primary elections.
1t also provides for separate official
ballots for each party, for the naming
of Independent candidates, for the pay
ment of all expenses by the state, for
the Identification of voters by existing
laws on that subject, and for a re-
count and an appeal to court by an
aggrived person, beside other protec-
tfon measures to insure the purity of
the ballot.
AS passed it provides that no liquor
shall be sold between the hours of l 100
and 100 in the evening on the two an
nual primary election days. One Of
these falls on the fourth Saturday be-
fore the February election and the 9TH
er ON the first Saturday in June, except
in presidential years, when it comes
on the second Saturday of April.
The amendment was made necessary
because of the election laws. Prim-
aries are to be subject, hereafter. to
the same rules as elections. The pri-
mary polls are to be open on Saturdays
from 100 to 8 100 in the evening and
the saloons are closed an hour before
and reopened an hour after it is over.
Under the new law all political
| parties will hold their primary elec-
| tion at the same time and same place.
Each party will have a separate ticket
on which will be the name of the can
didates. Those getting the highest
vote will be placed on the ticket, and
the electors will thus vote twice for
/ their favored candidate-once at the
primary and then again at the general
election.
There will be no more delegates or
conventions.
A primary election will be held in
each precinct in the same manner and
| by the same officials that conduct the
general election, and they will be paid
by the state.
The new law results in the hotel men
being compelled to close their places
of business four days each year instead
of two, because of elections, and as the
primaries are held on Saturday the
new law does not meet with much ap.
proval from hotel men.
This years Democratic and Republi-
can county conventions may be the
last held in Montour county. and it has
already suggested that return to the
old meetings will be necessary to gel
an expression of party opinion on live
| issues.
| Party rules, in a great measure, are
wiped out by the new primary cleo
tion law, and candidates are already
wondering how the law will affect
them when it once gets into practica
operation.

Trout Will be Plenty.

Reports come from the mountains
and from persons living along trout
streams that the outlook for the COM
ing spring is better than it has been
for years. This is doubtless due to
two things-the rigid enforcemment of
the law and the mild winter. Trout
appear to be more than usually plenti-
full in the streams Of the White Deer
Valley.
