Besides the hills and valleys of the town. which gave 1t a natural artistic effect in the summer when the trees are verdant, the town has one of the largest bodies of water in the center of the state, which is known as Joe's pond. and named after Joe, the member of the St. Francis tribe of ln- dans who saved the townspople from de- structon by members of his own tribe a few years after the revolution, when the town was settled.
 As well as being interested in the growth of the town they are considering the advisability of printing a history which is being compiled by Harvey s. Dole, from papers written by his father in-law. the late Dr. J. S. Durant.
 Mr. Dole has learned in his search through. the doctors papers that the tract or land now known as Danville was a grant by the state of New York in lSi1 and known as Hillsboro, although that name was never placed on the records.
 
 Hampshire grants for a separate state existence, the efforts of Ethan Allen and others were encouraged and assisted by the French consul in Boston and they succeeded in securing a charter In honor of the distinguished Frenchmen who as sisted Allen and his associates the towns were named after them, and Admiral Danville's name was chosen for this town The records show that soon after the town was settled a sawmill was built on what is now called Joes brook and that was followed by the erection of meeting house. schoolhouse a tavern, blacksmith shop and store The first pillory and stocks in the state of Yer mont were used here. For several years the town progressed slowly, but began to grow remarkably in population and business in the beginning of the 18th cen tury. Business fairly boomed for a long time in the small town, and especially when it was made the shire town. After a long-continued and bitter fight be- tween those on the east and west sides of Caledonia county. the county seat was removed to St. Johnsbury and that was the most diseouragng thing the town had ever seen.
 Mir Dole intends to continue his work of compiling history, and If the vil- lage improvement association or the local grange. of which he is a leading member do not take the work to publish it, he Is determined to do it himself.

VERMONT WOMENDO MUCH
 TOWARD REBUILDING TOWN

Boston. March 25.-(Speelal.) IA special to the Herald from Danville. Vt. sayss
 If there is an association of women in the Green Mountain state whose sole ob- jeet Is to beautify their town, which, naturally, they declare is the most beau tiful place in Vermont, 1t is the Ladies Village Improvement society of Danville, the second highest town, in point of alti- tude in the state. This society is by no means a social organization, and there are no pink teas afternoon whist parties or receptions. The members, numbering 120 and including some of the most promi- nerit women in town. are banded together with only one aim in view and that is to add to the beauty of their little town.
 Unlike many similar organizations. the Danvlle Ladies' Village Improvement so- eiety does not quit work during the win ter months but the members make use of their time during this season in plan ming for the coming spring and summer and collecting money enough from the townspeople to assist in the work of im- proving the village. This society has ac- complshed so much good in beantifylng the common in the centre Of the village, or the green as the natives call 1t, fixing up the public grounds generally and the town cemetery as well. that time and again the village corporation was about to contribute generously to the society un- til sueh ideas were discouraged by the members of the improvement society. who declared that if they accepted such funds they would be under an obligation to tho village government, and to this they obs jected
 The society was organized about eight years ago by Miss Annie D. Aver, who has since died. The society started a few weeks after a mems village im- provement society had been organized, but the women made such rapid strides from the beginning that the mems so- ciety passed into oblivion and was for gotten. while the women have always been successful. At first the men of the village, and,' in fact. many of the women, some of whom are at present great enthusiasts, strenuously opposed the organization Of the society, but the members overcame all obstacles, and today have one of the largest, as well as one of the most lourishing societies in the Green Mountain state.
 Since 1t was organized the society has been instrumental in having water and electric lighting service installed in

AMERICAN FUNDS
 HAVE AIDED JAPAN
THOUSANDS ARE STILL ON THE VERGE OF STARVATION, AL THOUGH GOVERNMENT IS Do- ING ALL IN ITS POWER.

Tokio. March 25.-The misery and sui fering in the famine district has been slightly relieved by the prompt and lib- eral aid of the foreign sources and the abatement of the rigors of winter. The local authorities are trying to provide work for the able-bodied. but the extent of the work is inadequate and thousands are still on the verge of starvation.
 Many parents are parting with their children, sending them to the already crowded okayama orphanage The se- verity of the suffering undergone by the children is clearly depicted in the faces of those who are compelled to part from their homes where the food consists of flour mixed with straw and weeds. The mixture is beaten fine, forming a pastry which contains only 25 per cent. actual fcod value. The liberal contributions from American sympathizers are already effective and the relief in the form of food and clothing is commanding the heartiest appreciation.
 Another appeal for aid is presented by the sufferers from the recent earthquake in South Formosa. thousands of whom are homeless.

Grave Digger Unearths Rich Ledge.

Reno Cor. San Francisco Chronicle.
 A grave digger working in the hill side cemetery has discovered a four. foot vein, and assays show that it car ries values of $100 a ton in gold. The hole was immediately filled and George W. Oliver staked off a claim
 This is not the first time that the presence of gold has been suspected in the hillside cemetery. Highly mineral ized quartz has frequently been un- covered in the place, but the values have never been so high in gold, and 1t Is likely that the active operations of the miner will soon invade the silent halls of death.

 These movements. the officials of the bureau of navigation say, were not or dered by the department, but are prob ably incidental to the approach of warm weather, the influence of which is being felt in the Philippines.
