Lives to Square with Black Hand.


Black Hand - This declaration was
made yesterday by Nicholas Gedro,
victim of the murderous revolver of
Anthony Yunada, as he lay on a cot
in the Miners hospital at Fountain
Springs, suffering excruciating pain
from the nine leaden missiles imbed-
ded in various parts of his anatomy.
Gedro, as is known to this papers
readers was attacked on North street
Marion Heights, last Thursday night
and wounded SO badly that it was
thought he had no chance for recov-
cry. His remarkable vitality, how
ever, stood him in good stead and be-
fore he was in the hospital twenty
four hours the surgeons who pronounc
ed his case hopeless at first were fore
ed to admit that he had a fighting
chance.
The wounded man has steadily i'm
proved, and yesterday word from the
bedside was to the effect that he will
recover.
The statement made yesterday was
to friend from Shamokin, who visit
ed the victim. 1t is short, but full of
sinister meaning. Thirst for revenge
has snatched Gedro from the grave.
The would-be murderer has not yet
been apprehended, although the offic-
ers are still searching for him.

GET RID OF THE
OLD CEMETERY

Now that the pavement on North
Mill street and the extension of the
sewer system into the fourth ward are
assured facts tits, indeed, TO be re-
gretted that civic pride does not as
serrt itself in another direction and
inaugurate some movement that will
rid the borough of the unsightly old
cemetery.on Bloom street.
1t is a sswell known fact that the
disused cemetery was long ago tender
ed the municipality for park. 1t is
equally patent to all that the borough
has seemingly taken no cognizance OF
the offer. The old cemetery year af-
ter year has been falling into worse
state of decay and dilapidation, and
the borough which is sadly in need
of park, is still without place OF
ornament and recreation, when it
might have one centrally located al
most for the asking.
There never was time more suit
able for action in the matter than the
| present While working on the extern
| sion of sewer and the reconstruction
of streets the borough could carry
along the improvement in the park
with very little extra work or ex-
pense. 1t is we'll known fact that
| those who have in hand the improve
ments on foot are casting about for
some central place on which may be
deposited the vast quantity of earth
accruing from the long line of sewers
to be laid in the fourth ward. The
quantity of ground that cannot be re-
placed in the trenches, in the aggre-
gate would be sufficient to fill up a
large part of the cemetery, obliterat-
| ing the graves where these are wholly
neglected and abandoned. Besides ex-
tending the sewer the borough con-
templates making extensive repairs on
Upper Mulberry street. The hill will
be cut down nearly a foot for con-
siderable distance. Where to deposit
the earth removed is now problem,
which would be solved, should the
borough see its way clear to take over
the old cemetery.
Clearly the matter is up to council
and now that the whole thing is be-
ginning to appear like very good
proposition, if nothing is done, the
members should not feel surprised il
the general public by and by begins to
indulge in some criticism. The old
cemetery is one of the first things the
councilmanic committee on public i'm
provements should give attention to.
1t is true, all this may cost money
and that the borough is not prepared
to assume additional outlay at present
But why not determine whether means
to carry on the work could not be OBJ
tanned from private sources. 1t would
be sorry reflection on our townto as
sumo that money could not be raised
by popular subscription to aid SO com
mendable a work. Let the trial b'
made and it is pretty safe TO affirm
that the civic pride of Danville viii
manifest itself equal to the emergen
cy.

Kidney UOuDI5.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used TO be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ming in kidney trouble.

by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild
