Court Next Week.

December court, which has been car

week, January Sth.
There are upwards of dozen civil
cases on the list for trial, continued

Major G. P. Gearhart, District At
torney-elect, will look after the Com
monwealth. There are very few cases
of this sort on hand Barring few

There is but one prisoner in the Coun-
ty Jail, John Sees, who is doing time
for attempting to break Jail.
Sees case will go before the Grand
Jury again, the bill submitted charg-
ing him with causing the death of an
infant as testified to by his wife in /.
sworn statement made when she be-
lieved herself to be dying.

amicable terms again. They had an
interview during the last term Of court

SHE Won WAGER
BY IL 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
q moonlight night At least Miss Mary
Beaver, of Danville, 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.
It was all the result of dare. New
Years eve party of young folks gath
cred at Miss Bertha CromwelPs Dan
vile home to bid adieu to old 1905
and welcome young Mr.. 1906. Cards
and games not being available to hurry
off the old year on account OF it being
Sunday, 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 it reach
ed romance and then "dares.' y 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
"just dying" to serve her. Young Mr..
Paul Vannan, however, was the chos-
en- one. With, a merry hurrah from
the others as a send off Miss Beaver
setting the pace, which was indeed
quite lively "the dare" couple crossed
the bridge to South Danville 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 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 won t
rub off nodded his head in encourage
ment and acted as referee. No foot
pads were met on the way and so far
as is known the trip was without a
single sensational incident. But a.
m. New Years Day when Mr.. and
Mrs. Kelley came downstairs they
found the couple in their parlor and
were greeted thusly, Happy New
Year. Just came down for little
walk.
Miss Beaver was as fresh as Il lark
and coaxed her escort to tramp back,
but he was "all in and they return
ed home on the train.
Miss Beaver was the "Lion of the
Hour in Danville and feasted royalty
on Huylers and wears a brand new
pair of gloves at the expense of those
who reckoned unwisely about her
ability to accomplish big as well as
little things. Daily.

MARRIAGE RULE
FOR CATHOLICS

There was considerable surprise in
Catholic circles in Wilkes Barre yes
terday when the announcement was
made that it would be necessary, al
most obligatory on the part of all
members of that faith in the future to
be married in the morning with
mass
Rev. J. J. Curran confided the ip-
formation to the members of his con-
gregation, and it is thought that the
rule will be generally established not
only in the Scranton dioceses, but
throughout the country. 1t is pointed
out that marriage is sacrament, made
sacred by the ties it binds, by the
hearts it unites and the hundred other
interests engendered.
In the past there was no general
custom, and the young people could be
married in the morning, afternoon or
evening. Some months ago nearly all
evening weddings were discontinued,
except in..rare cases, when a valid rea-
son could be given.

Borough, Mayberry, Cooper, Mahon-
ing, Valley, Liberty and West Hem

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 in the
State shall not be inferred, nor deposit

tion district in which death occurs.
The certificate of death is a volum.
inous affair and contains 23 items, the

the extreme and involves no end of
work. The registration of births omits
no details and the attending physician
or midwife who has to file a certificate
will have plenty to do under the new
act. 49,.

JACOB WEINBR'S
JOYFUL news

Enthusiastically the happiest man in
Danville yesterday was Jacob Weimer,
the Hebrew shoemaker on Lower Null
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 Czar with it's 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 well
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 = 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 "A boy

DanvilIe Defeats Ashland.

Another victory was added to DAN
ville's long list when the local team
defeated the Ashland aggregation at
the Armory New Year s 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, stren-
uous game individually, but did not
seem able to play together. They set
a fast pace but the Danville tossers
were nearly always just little faster.
Some of the finest basket throwing
ever seen at the Armory was done in
the game Monday afternoon by the
local team. The game was very ex-
citing and almost sensational from
start to finish

rlany Were Duped by
a Subscription Fakir

Scores of prominent Hazletonians
have been made victims of magazine
subscription fakir, who operated in
that section during November From
each victim he received from 81 to $3.
He offered club rates on all the mag
azines, which were away below the
prices quoted by any other agency and
he had little trouble in interesting
patrons. He claimed to be travelling
for the World Clubbing Subscription
Co., of New York City.
The subscriptions were to have start
ed in December The month rolled
around and none of the parties who
had paid him their money received
their magazines. One of the condi-
tions of the contract was cash pay
ment in advance.
Then several who had subscribed
wrote to the supposed company the
fakir iclaimed to represent. They
waited in vain for answer. Finally. a
few communicated with the New York
World which they thought might have
been used in connection with the
scheme.
kThe World replied saying that it had
nothing whatever to do with the agent
whom it denounced as swindler. 1t
has put the e1police on his track. The
mail Of. the World Clubbing Subscrip-
tion Co. has been stopped by the pos
tai department.
Hereafter when magazine agents
come around it would be well for those
on whom they call to turn them down
if advance payments are asked, or to
require credentials showing that they
are bona fide representatives of the
publications they,are canvassing for.

Died AFTER
BRIEF ILLNESS

Mrs. Mary Gallagher, mother of Miss
Rose Gallagher, the well known school
teacher of the Borough, departed this
life on Saturday morning at 8 O'Clock,
after a very brief illness.
Mrs. Gallagher had been ailing only
for one week ; death was quite unex-
pected and came as great shock to
the family. She was able to be about
and along with her daughter was out
as late as Thursday evening. All ar
rangements were made for happy
holiday week, but death came as a sad
ending.
The deceased, was the widow of

eleven years ago. She was 73 years of
age and along with her husband emil
grated to this country from Ireland in
early life. 1t was before the days of

mable character, of generous impulses
and kind sympathetic nature. Her
demise has left vacant place at the
fireside that never can be filed, while
throughout the neighborhood she will
beImissed in many ways.
In addition to Miss Rose Gallagher,
the deceased is survived by three other
daughters Catherine, the eldest, Mrs.
P, H. MoCaffrey) Sallie (Mrs. Griffin)
and Mary, MRS. Charles Beyers.) A
nephew, Michael Dougherty, was rear
ed by the deceased and has always
been as one of the family.
The funeral of Mrs. Mary Gallagher
took place from St. Joseph's Catholic
church Tuesday morning and was
largely attended.
The services, which included high
requiem mass, were conducted by Faith
or Hilary (James Welsh, of Scranton,
nephew of the deceased. The pail
bearers were: Thomas Gill, James
Finnegan, Bernard Shovelin, James
Daley, John F. Tooley and G. p.
Murray. The funeral proceeded to
the cemetery in Danville and
