FINE labor
DEMONSTRATION

The picnic of Glendower lodge No.
20. A. A. of l. S. and T. W, which
took place in DeWitt's park on Labor
day was well-rounded success, some
four thousand people being on the
ground. The lodge realized neat
sum as the proceeds of the outing.
The rain during the early morning
hours, it was feared, would initiate
against the general success of the out
ing, but by o'clock the sky cleared
and the remainder of the day was
pleasant enough.
The parade, indeed, was a striking
feature several hundred men being in
line. Montour lodge, A. A. of l. S.
& 7. w, had one hundred and fifty
men in line and was led by the Ex-
change band. The Iron Moulders' un-
ion, led by the P. U. S. of A. drum
corps, was conspicuous feature.
Seventy eight moulders were in line
all wearing black belts and white caps.
Glendower lodge had fifty men in line
and was led by the junior drum corps
The nail mill lodge was headed by the
Washington drum corps. The parade
on the whole was one of the finest lab
or demonstrations ever witnessed in
Danville.
After covering the route of parade
in town the workingmen marched to
the park, where two excellent address,
es we're delivered by Llewellyn Lewis
of Martins Ferry, O., and James B.
Mincher, of Reading, officials of the
a. A. of |. S. & T. W. The discourses
dwelt upon the subject of labor organ
ization and proved very edifying.
During the afternoon the grounds
were literally packed and the mem
bers of Glendower lodge were kept
busy catering to the public. Dancing
was in progress all day and during the
evening. This along with base ball
constituted the principal amusement
The game of the latter was played be-
tween Danville and Benton and result
ed in a score of 13 TO in favor of the
latter team.

HARD DIGGING
ON BEAVER STREET

Work is not proceeding very rapidly
on the installation of the six-inch wa
ter main, Beaver street, which was
connected with the East Market street
main on Sunday afternoon Much of
the digging lies through a bed Of Gin
der, which can be pierced only by
means of sledge hammer and drill.
The length of the main is eight hun
dred feet, which in view of the hard
digging, conveys some idea of the
amount of work involved. The job
will not be completed this week.
In laying the main cinder is not per-
mitted to come into contact with the
new pipe, as the short life Of the main
being displaced is attributed to the
peculiar action of the cinder on the
iron. The pipe as far as laid has been
embedded in sand or clay provided by
the Danville Stove and manufacturing
company.
The main will connect with the
stove works where a new fire plug
will be installed at the company's ex-

COUNTY WILL BUILD
BLOOn NONUnENT

Bloomsbury, also. is to have fine
soldiers and sailors monument. This
was practically assured yesterday when
the Columbia county grand jury acted
favorably on an appropriation of sS,
600 to be devoted to that purpose.
According to an act of the legislature,
if two successive grand juries in a
county recommend an appropriation
and the action is then sanctioned by
the court, the county commissioners
are authorized to make an appropria-
tion TO be used for monument to the
memory of the sailors and soldiers to
be erected at the county seat
The May grand jury of Columbia
county favored the appropriation, and
their action was seconded by the Sep
tember grand jury yesterday after
noon. There is no doubt but that the
court will add the final touch today
that will make a lasting tribute in
Bloomsbury realization.
More funds Will be added to the S.
900 appropriation by private subscrip-
tions The monument will be erected

of Danville. joruneyed over to Milton
on Monday to attend the annual re-
union of the Susquehanna district. So
imposing was the appearance of the
local knights that the committee
awarded them the prize for the best
appearing castle in the parade. The
Danville castle also had the largest
number of men in line. seventy-fve,
but could not take that prize as the
rules forbid more than one prize be-
ing awarded to any castle.
A special train conveyed the Dan
vile knights and their friends to Mil
ton, and returning brought them home
late Monday night In the morning
lS0 tickets, were sold, and the in after
noon a large number made the trip
The reunion took the form of pic
mic and feature was the twilight
parade. 1t was an innovation and was
a decidedly successful one. The scene
presented by the uniformed knights
marching along amid great display
of fireworks was decidedly attractive.

CAUGHT UNDER
STEAM HAMMER

Walter Gaskins, Jr., yesterday en-
tered upon employment at the Read
ing Iron Works. His first day in the
mill, however, was signalized by a
very serious accident, which may Grip.
pie his right hand for life.
Walter was at work at the steam
hammer, which is used to fatten the
iron pipe found among the scrap be-
fore it is placed in the shears. All
went we'll until just about noon when
in some way two fingers of Walters
right hand were caught under the
ponderous hammer, which falls with
a weight of two thousand pounds and
they were crushed in most shocking
manner.
Along with his fingers the iron pipe
lay under the hammer, which probab-
ly accounts for the fact that the bones
were not crushed into pulp. The men,
bers injured were the index finger and
the one next to it, That the whole
hand was not caught under the ham
mer and crushed is owing to the mer-
est accident.
The injured boy was taken to the
home of his father, Walter L. Gaskins,
West Mahoning street, where he re-
ceived surgical aid from DR.. P. @.
Newbaker.
The index finger is the one most ser
iously injured, for while the bone is
intact the finger is very badly crush.
ed, large portion of the tissue being
pinched off, leaving the tendons ex-
posed. DR.. Newbaker is doing all he
can to save the finger, but the chances
are about equally divided whether he
will succeed or not.
The second finger, although badly
crushed, will be more likely to heal
and leave no bad results. The injury
was accompanied by intense pain and
it was necessary to administer an an
aesthetic, as the result of which the
young man was i'll during the after
noon.

VACCINATION
STILL A PROBLEM

A member of the school board is
authority for the statement that not a
few nonresident pupils have present.
ed themselves for enrolment in the
borough schools without being success
fully vaccinated as required by law
In all cases such pupils have been re-
fused admittance until they comply
with the law.
The surprising part of the matter is
that the most of these pupils have
never been vaccinated at all. A few
stated that theythad5been advised by
the family physician that vaccination
was not necessary.
Another difficulty that the school
authorities face is.the fact that not a
few of the resident pupils present
certificates of vaccination on blanks
other than those provided for that
purpose by the State department of
health, which is in violation of the
law
At a special meeting of the school
board Tuesday night on motion, it was
ordered that in no instance will pupils
not previously in attendance be ad
mitted to the borough schools unless
they present a certificate of vaccina-
tion in which blank is used that has
been furnished by the State depart
ment of health.
