ONE CASE OF
EACH REMAINING

1t will be gratifying to our readers
to learn that scarlet fever, several
cases of which were known to exist in
Danville at the close of January, has
now been practically stamped out,
there being but one house under quar-.
antine for that disease, while the case
under treatment is only one of scarlet
rash.
Health Officer B. B. Brown yester-
day stated that there is also only one
house under quarantine in Danville
where diphtheria exists, fact which
would show that the latter dreaded
disease has also heen we'll handled by
our physicians and health officers.
The report of the truant officer at
the meeting of the school board on
Monday night showed that 24S pupils
were out of school during the preced.
ing month by reason of sickness.
Wheher or not the report for the pres.
ent month will be more favorable is
not known, but it is perfectly clear
that contagious diseases of the graver
sort will not be responsible for keep
ing pupils out of school,

An Ideal Day.

Yesterday the weather conditions
were nearly ideal for midwinter. At
a. IN. mercury was at zero. The sky
was .cloudless and the atmosphere was
nearly motiouless. As the morning
hours wore away the sun began to as
sert itself. By l0a III. it was quite
agreeable and by noon mercury had
climbed up to 90 degrees.
Everyone who could possibly spare
the time made it a point to spend an
hour or so out of doors. Those situat-
ed so they could take advantage of
the delightful day to indulge in sleigh
ride found the maximum of delight
and healthful recreation in the sport.
AS general thing sleighing is still
quite good, while none of the biting
cold was felt that usually detracts
from the pleasure of a sleigh ride. The
snow clad landscape was bathed in the
brightest of sunshine and on every side
were evidences of good cheer and re-
newed hopefulness. 1t was hard to
realize that so many wintry days lie
between us and the spring.

FAST FREIGHT
HITS WORK TRAIN

A score or more employees on the
Reading railroad over at Paxinos, mar
rowly escaped terrible death early
yesterday morning, when their work
train was dashed into by a fast freight
and several cars were sma shed and set
on fire.
The work train was standing on the
main track, when the fast freight came
dashing along at mile minute
pace. Orders somewhere had been mis-
understood, and the engineer not
knowing that the track was blocked,
did not slacken his speed and when
finally the work train loomed into
view it was too late to avert a. collis-
ion. The engineer and fireman jumped
just as the engine struck the rear car.
Several cars of the work train were
thrown from the track. badly splinter
ed and were soon in flames. BY the
best of fortune no one was aboard.
Had there been they would have been
pinned beneath the wreckage and prob
ably burned to death.

TWENTY TRAINS
FROZEN UP

As result of the wreck at Rupert
tower Tuesday evening, a great many
trains were frozen up along the Penusy
road5 in this vicinity during Tuesday
night and yesterday, one of the worst
congestions ever witnessed on the div
ision being the result.
Twenty different trains were frozen
up yesterday morning between Mifflin
vile and South Dauville, and unable
to move. The wreck caused several
trains to be held up Tuesday night, on
each side of Rupert tower, and it was
not long before the cold froze up their
steam and put them temporarily out of
business. The other trains which ap-
preached from either end of the div
ision during the night and morning
were thus compelled to come to a
stand, and they in turn all froze up,
until every siding aud available track
along the stretch named was filed
with stalled and dead trains
AS fast as they could become thaw-
ed ont yesterday they were started on
their way, but all the passenger trains
were very late. The morning and noon
passenger trains we're nearly an hour
and half behind time.
As an illustration of the old-up, one
crew, which left Sudbury Tuesday
morning at 3 O. clock, and We're sup
posed to be hack Tuesday night, were
still held up yesterday afternoon the
men having been away from home on
their train thirtysiX hours then, and
still having no idea when they would
reach Sunbury.

dent of the second ward and veteran

death OF ALBERT
GEORGE POVEY

Albert George Povey, very highly
esteemed young man who has been
about Danville for several years past,
died in Philadelphia Saturday under
sad circumstances. The body will be
brought to Danville today.
The deceased was native of Eng
land. He was A years of age and has
brother and two sisters living in
London. He came to America twelve
years ago. first locating in Canada.
Some years ago when the Salvation
lists were active in Danville he came
here as member of the army. He was
man of intelligence and good educa-
tion. He was of a generous and self
sacrificing disposition, his conduct
uniformly being such as became a con
sistent Christian.
When the branch of the Salvation
Army in Danville disbanded, Mr..
Povey accepted a position as attendant
at the hospital for the insane. He
made the most of his opportunity
there, entering the aiming school for
attendants and graduating in the class
of 1908 as full-fedged nurse.
Within comparatively recent date,
however, he developed heart disease.
For the six months prior to death he
was unable to fill his position and dur
ing this time he made hisr home with
Mr.. and Mrs. J. II. Weaver Ferry
street.
During the last month of his life he
conceived desire to revisit his native
land. Possibly premonition of his
approaching end and desire to see his
brother and sisters before he died had
something to do with it. 1t is hardly
likely, however, that the long voyage
would have been possible for him, had
not kind friends came to his aid
On Friday he left Danville on the
II :23 p. & r. train for Philadelphia,
intending to embark for London on
Saturday. He was then feeling quite
badly, but it was hoped that he would
get along without any difficulty.
He reached Philadelphia safely and
sent a telegram to Danville to that
effect, although he stated that he was
feeling no better. At 10 a. m. Satur-
day a telegram was received from the
Jefferson hospital stating that he was
a patient at that institution and was
in q serious condition. This was fol-
lowed by another telegram at 2 l5 Sat
urday, which stated that Povey had
died at the hospital

the building has been held up. The
question is in the hands of President

SAN JOSE SCALE
IN DANVILLE

A. W. Stephens, the orchard demon
strator, who II couple of weeks ago en-
tered upon the work of inspecting
fruit trees about town in order to full
ly determine to what extent the San
Jose scale has obtained foothold lin
Montour county, has now completed a
canvass of all the upper part of the
borough South of Market street
When seen yesterday he was busy
plying his vocation. He says that he
finds an abundance and fine variety
of choice fruit trees growing in town.
OF the trees thus far examined, about
ten per cent have been found to be in
tested with the scale. The ravage. of
the pest is confined mostly to the peach
and plum trees. At no place has very
much damage been done, but the mere
presence of the scale indicates that the
fruit trees of town are exposed to
great danger, and unless the proper
remedy is applied without delay the
pest will gain firm foothold and its
determination will be next to impossi-
ble
