Girl Puts Hand on a Snake.

To reach her hand into a chicken S
nest to get an egg, and sieze hold of a
big clammy blacksnake, was the ex-
perience of Miss Mary J. Hess, at her
home in Benton township, Colum bla
county yesterday. She gave hysteric-
al scream, and ran breathlesslv into
the house. The reptile was afterwards
killed and measured five and one half
feet in length.
For days the family has been miss
ing eggs, but they attributed it TO the
fact that the hens were not laying
them. So nothing was thought of it.
The young woman went to the
-chickenhouse to look for eggs early
yesterday morning. and reaching int o
nest without looking into it. she put
her hand on the snake.
Her yell when she put her hand
against the reptile was piercing, and
it was heard by her father Daniel
Hess, and a farm hand, Geo Hess.
They ran into the chicken house and
succeeded in killing the snake. 1t was
as thick as a man s arm.

BROKEN GLASS
REPLACED BY NEW

The large plate glass at J. f. Tooley's S
store, accidentally broken some months
ago, was replaced by new glass yester-
day afternoon.
The glass is one of the very largest
in town, measuring 1877 inches by 9S
inchs. To insert it in the window
without breaking it required a great
deal of care and skill, but it was sue
cessfully accomplished by force of
men under G.. f. Reifsnyder.
The glass was struck by falling
signboard last winter. There was only
small crack at first, barely percepti-
BILE, which seemed to grow steadily
until it became such a blemsh that
the glass had to be removed. The
window was insured in the mutual
company maintained by local business
men to insure plate galss.

Six thousand is given out as an esti-
mate of the number of people VINO
gathered for the outing and to hear
the fine array of speakers, who were
present for the occasion. Fully 1000
teams were there. The place resembl-
ed the big day at a county fair, all the
attributes of gala occasion being in

TORE DOWN A
TRESPASS NOTICE

Town boys who make excursions in
to the country should remember that
farmers have rights which others,
whether they reside in town or coun-
try, are bound to respect,
There are two boys in Danville who
have learned from bitter experience
that a trespass notice posted means
precisely what it says and that the
man or boy who disregards the warn
ing against trespassing commits the
sheerest folly.
The boys in question day or so ago
while walking along the P. & r. rail
way, ran across trespass notice post
ed on the farm of David Krum, short
distance above town. The warning
against trespassing did not awe them
in the least and as if to show their
contempt for the whole proceeding
they began stoning the printed notice,
finally splitting the inch board on
which it was pasted and causing it to
fall from its support.
The boys returned home little dream
ing that trouble would result from
their overt act. They were rudely
awakened when Constable Young a
little later took them into custody and
they were hailed before Justice of the
Peace Dalton charged with malicious
mischief.
Farmer Krum, who had proven him
self pretty good detective, was on
hand in the role of prosecutor. The
boys, however, during the hearing
created the impression on both the
farmer and the justice that they We're
more thoughtless than malicious and
the result was that they got off by
paying 50. so each instead of a much
larger sum in which they might have
been mulcted.

SHOCK|NCLY INJURED
By BROKEN CLASS

Falling into a window, Sunday
night, Andrew Magill of No 210 Ash
street, inflicted shocking injury to his
left arm. which may cripple him for
life. The accident was peculiar in
many respects, the terrible lacerations,
especially, being such as one would
hardly believe could be inflicted by
broken glass.
On Sunday evening Andrew Magill.
who was at home alone with his aged
mother, retired at the usual hour. Be-
tween IL and 10 O'Clock he became
aware that his brother, John Magill,
had returned home and was ON the
back porch. He arose and started down
stairs to unlock the door.
He reached the bottom of the steps
and was walking across the room to-
ward the back door when he stumbled
over the large Newfoundland dog
which was sleeping on the floor; he
fell forward against the window, his
left arm crashing through the glass.
Before he could recover himself and
extricate his arm the sharp and jagged
glass had cut and sawed into the fieshy
part of his left forearm a short dist
ance below the elbow producing a
wound that seemed to nearly half sever
the arm. The blood literally poured
out of the wound and the man seemed
in danger of bleeding to death.
John Magill hurried down town
where he ran across Officer Noris, who
called up DR.. Cameron Shultz by tele-
phone and then proceeded to the Magill
home to render assistance.
When DR.. Shultz arrived the injur-
ed man was on the verge of collapse
due to the loss of blood, although the
flow after some difficulty had been
checked by means of bandage tight
ly drawn around the upper arm. The
doctor found the muscles severed half
way around the arm and a Gaping
wound was produced in which a man
could have laid three fingers. In addi-
tion the glass had cut an artery, al
though it appeared that the blood yes.
sci was not wholly severed.
Such was the injury that the doctor
was called upon to treat. First. the
muscles had to be drawn together and
sewed, eight stitches being required
Altogether, it was most difficult op-
Grafton and even at that it leaves no
assurance that a complete recovery
will follow. The injured man wall be
very lucky if he regains the full use
of his arm. At first it was n question
with the physician whether amputa-
tion would not be necessary.
Andrew Magill is stove moulder.
He is a man of steady habits and pop
ular with his fellow workmen. He is
the object of much sympathy.

Arrested ON
SERIOUS CHARGE

r. N. Lyons, former resident of
Columbia county, but who for some
time past has been located at this place
as representative of the Cataw issa
Paper Mill company, was arraigned
before Justice of the Peace Oglesby
yesterday morning charged with a
statutory offense. The nature of the
charge was such that under the law a
justice of the peace is not permitted
to admit the defendant to bail and
Lyons was. therefore, committed to
Jail
The person accusing Lyons was An
ME Gill, the twelve year old daugh-
ter of Mrs. Mary Gill. of Welsh hill.
The information was lodged Tuesday
and late on the evening of the same
day Lyons was taken into custody by
Chief Police Mincemoyer. He was
committed to Jail to await a hearing.
At IL O'Clock yesterday morning the
defendant was arraigned before Justice
Oglesby, Edward S. Gearhart appear
ing as his counsel. District Attorney
@. P. Gearhart was present and con-
Quoted the examination of witnesses.
The defendant entered plea of not
guilty.
The scene of the alleged outrage was
laid near the old Catholic cemetery
north of town. The child's testimony
was highly eliminating in its nature
and established prima facie case.
Justice Oglesby decided to hold
Lyons for court. Under the law in such
cases the matter of bail is up to court
Nothing remained for the justice of
the peace to do, therefore, but to send
Lyons back to prison. for the time be-
ing, at least, until the matter of bail
could be settled.

FIRST BRICK
LAID YESTERDAY

The first brick were laid on North
Mill street yesterday. The last stage
of paving has now been reached and
probably in a weeks time the brick
will be laid all the way from Centre
street to the Danville Milling COM
pany's plant, beyond which the street
will be macadamized.
The laying of brick began at 8
O'Clock in the forenoon and by last
evening a space was covered extending
from Centre street nearly to the Con
tinental hose house. The same expert
brick layer, William Dill, who was
employed on the section between
Centre street and the river bridge
when the latter was paved couple of
years ago is laying the brick on North
Mill street. He has lost none of his
sleight and expertness and the large
crowd, assembled yesterday afternoon,
stood watching him for hours amazed
at the grace and rapidity with which
he performed his work.
BY actual count, when the man was
unaware that he was being timed, it
was found that he laid sixty brick in
forty seconds, at the rate of ninety
brick in one minute or 3, 400 brick an
hour. AS many men as can work to
an advantage carry the brick to him
from the curbing, but they are unable
to keep him busy.
The surface where the brick is laid
is less agreeable to the. eye probably
than that section of Mill street south
ward where drab colored blocks were
used in paving. The red brick,
however, present much sounder and
durable appearance. The blocks. to
belgn with, weigh nine and half
pounds; the chipping and the frequ-
ency with which the bricks broke in
two, which was noted and commented
on when the paving blocks were laid
on the other section of the street, is
almost entirely absent in the paving
now being laid on North Mill street.

Female PATIENT
JOINS THE exodus

The uncomfortable desire to escape,
which last week became epidemic
among the male patients at the hospit-
al for the insane. seems to have spread
to the female wing of the institution
and yesterday woman patient decid-
ed to follow the example of the men
and took to the tall timbers. OF course
size was captured as the most of them
are, but by her caper she stirred up a
great excitement at the institution and
led three attendants a long and weary
chase through tie hot sun.
The first that was known of the es-
cape in this city was when the 40
Danville and Bloomsbury trolley car
arrived. Among the passengers that
got eff was woman whose general
appearance left no doubt that she was
an insane patient from the hospital.
Accompanying her were two young wo-
men and man, attendants of the hos
pital for the insane.
The entire party presented foot
sore and wilted appearance such as
might follow forced march of sever
al miles up hill and down under the
hot August sun.
Awaiting the trolley's arrival was
the hospital wagon, into which the
whole party were tucked away and
driven rapidly off in the direction of
the hospital.
The escape occurred at II o'clock in
the forenoon. The patient was one
who was found useful in the nurses
home" and was permitted to go back
wards and forwards pretty much at
pleasure. Yesterday she decided to
take advantage of the freedom she en-
joyed and at an opportune moment she
simply walked away.
When the attendants missed her she
had not proceeded far, but she was full
of artifice and knew how to elude pur-
suit. With two female attendants and
one male attendant in close pursuit
she managed to keep concealed and
made her way nearly as far as Cata-
wissa. 1t was hot and tiresome tramp
but hour after hour the plucky attend
ants kept on their way and finally
sometime in the afternoon they were
rewarded by overtaking the woman.
Tho ro~tr than r,adn i+r WOW ova- +L~
river road to Grovania, where the hos
pital was called up by phone and
notified that the woman had been cap
tured. 1t was then arranged that the
attendants with the patient should
journey to Danville by trolley and that
the hospital wagon should meet them
at that place.

ANONYMOUS LETTER
THREATENS DOG

4 citizen of the first ward, who
owns an interesting little fox terrier
received an anonymous communication
Tuesday, warning him that his dog
would be poisoned if he were not
kept in The charge brought
against the fox terrier is that he barks
and annoys people.
The owner of the fox terrier declares
that the dog only on the rarest occas-
ions gets outside of the enclosure and
is always locked up in the house at
night. The anonymous letter with its
cruel threat has thoroughly exasperat-
ed him and he is after the writer.
