EQUIPMENT FOR
new INDUSTRY

E. NJ. Applebaugh, vice president and
general manager of the Pennsylvania
Brake Beam works, the ne W industry
which will occupy the building of the
North Branch Steel works, arrived in
this city Tuesday and Immediately
got down to work. Several car loads
of equipment from the dismantled
plant at Easton have already arrived.
Machinery will be installed without
any loss of time and before the close
of the present month the company ex-
poets to be manufacturing and ship
ping brake beams.
One car load of rolls, along with
three car loads of castings is ON the
ground, while five additional car
loads of castings and brake beam
machinery is enroute. Another car
load of rolls also is ON the way. A
heavy order for machinery was placed
with the Danville Foundry and Mach
inc company a couple of months ago.
The order comprises pinions for roll
train, furnace castings and equipment,
also tables and hot saw equipment.
Additional orders are to be placed
with the Danville Foundry and Mach
inc company by the Brake Beam COM
pany.
The machinery shipped here from
Easton comprises the brake beam de-
partment. the plant as equipped before
removal AS relates to this plant but
little more remains to be done than to
install the machinery and, unless some
unforeseen delay occurs, the company
will be manufacturing and shipping
brake beams in a few weeks time.
The rolling mill is new department
installed by the company and longer
time will be required in getting it
equipped. This department will con-
tain 3.high 24-inch roll train and
will be modern in every respect. Some
three months NAV elapse before the
rolling mill will be in working order.
Mr. Applebaugh was accompanied
to this city by James Hackenbury,
superintendent Of the brake beam de-
partment, and Joseph Klega, superin-
tendent Of the rolling mill. The three
men are here to remain. Mr.. Apple
baugh's family, which is at Easton at
present. will follow him to this city
in the course of few weeks.

ATTEMPT TO ROB
FALLON BROS.

Residents in the vicinity Of the D.
L. 81 W. railroad crossing ON Mill
street. about half past o. clock Tues
day morning, were aroused by five
pistol shots fred in quick succession.
An explanation of the occurrence was
found later when it became known
that an attempt had been made to rob
the store of Fallon Bros.
In giving an account of the affair
yesterday, Michael Fallon stated that
himself and brother. Edward, sleep in
the second story of the confectionery.
About half past Q O'Clock they were
aroused by the sound of a couple of
boards falling just outside in the mar
row space between the house and the
high fence that skirts the D. l.. 81 W.
track. Looking out of the window
they observed two men, one on the
railroad and the other inside the fence
beside the house.
The two brothers instantly took in
the situation. In climbing into the
yard the man had upset two boards
which were leaning against the fence
and these had fallen against the house
causing the noise which aroused the
occupants.
Seizing his revolver Michael opened
fire on the two men, who beat hasty
retreat.
The man in the yard lost some time
in climbing out over the fence and
thus was exposed to the brunt of the
onset.
A mill man on his way to work just
at that hour met three men on the ID.
l.. q W. track above Mill street whose
appearance did not impress him favor
ably. One of the men was bandaging
his wrist with handkerchief, which
led to the conclusion that the fellows
were the would-be robbers and that
the man had been wounded by one of
the shots fred by Mr.. Fsllon.

unknown Grave
Discovered

The Petriken cemetery on Bloom
street, which with the large burial
ground just below it for so many years
was an eyesore and nuisance, by
Saturday night was practically wiped
out of existence. With work so we'll
advanced ON the new park all that was
needed was the total abandonment of
the small cemetery to effect a com
plete transformation of the spot. The
improved appearance was much COM
mented upon yesterday.
Not only on Saturday were all the
graves practically obliterated bit the
large weeping willow, which was a
landmark on the spot as far back as
any one can remember, was cut down
aud, along with stump and roots, was
removed from the cemetery.
The tree, which measured some four
feet across the stump was veritable
patriarch 1t revealed some evidences
of decay and it was thought best to
cut it down.
In removing the stump an interest
ing discovery was made. In eradicat-
ing the wide spreading roots it was
necessary to make deep excavation.
Under the weeping willows and i'm
prisoned among the roots was we'll
preserved grave substantially walled
up with brick, the existence of which
was never dreamed of by anyone liv-
ing. The unknown remains lay i'm
mediately under the pondeIous trunk
of the willow; several of the larger
roots, nearly as thick as a mans body,
firmly embraced the grave, not unlike
the arms of an enormous octopus.
Only few feet away as revealed by
the excavation lay another grave COW
cred with large slab. Each grave
from the careful manner in which
it . was constructed would in
dictate that its occupant was a person
Of Importance and standing in the
community. Yet the memory of those
living goes not back far enough to re-
call the time when mark er stood on
the surface to tell who slept below. 1t
was in their memory no doubt that the
willow tree was planted on the spot
the tree with the widespreading roots
Of which, as il faithful to the trust,
gathered up the remains of the dead
and held them firmly in their en-
brace.
The roots Saturday were all care
fully cut in such manner as not to
disturb the graves and the spot will
be carefully filed up and graded. The
two unknown graves will probably be
never heard of again in the world s
history

BODY OF GIRL
SUICIDE FOUND

With her face covered with mud,
arms extended and hands clenched, as
though she struggled hard against
death even though it was deliberate
and self-willed, the body Of pretty
Lucy Smith was found lying close to
the first pier of the Cstawissa bridge,
on the side nearest that town at near
noon Tuesday. Her clothing was
caught in sprag on water-soaked
log and held the body until the discov-
cry was made.
The remains were taken to her home
by Undertaken Berninger and were
prepared for burial. Her mother, who
had hoped against hope, and was be-
lieving that her daughter might yet
be found alive and well, was prostrat.
ed at the sight of her body, cold in
death. being brought into the home.
She could not be consoled and her
grief was indeed, pitiable.
Ever since the alarm was spread on
Monday morning a ceaseless search
has been kept along the stream. Men
have been graphing night and day
and no effort had been left undone in
the effort to find the body. David
Henry and Ben Hollingshead. who
were in boat together, were the men
who made the gruesome discovery.
Their graphing hook caught in the
folds Of her skirt, and the sad discov-
cry was made. They rowed to the
place where she had thrown herself in
the stream, and the body was tenderly
carried to the wharf
1t is sad case and all of Cataw issa
is in deep sympathy with the family.
The funeral will probably be held
from the house on Friday afternoon at
3 O'Clock. Rev. U. Myers will be the
officiating clergyman. InteIment will
be made in the Catawissa cemetery.

Police AFTER
THE COASTERS

Pedestrians yesterday had difficult
time of it keeping erect as they made
their way along the slippery side
walks. The light fall of snow on Tues
day was trodden into a solid mass up
on the pavement 1t froze during the
night and remained in that condition
during the day. The streets every
where were treacherous and not few
persons sustained falls.
Many of the sidewalks were utiliz-
ed by the boys and girls as cossting
grounds and thus were rendered much
more dangerous. There was consider
able complaint on that score from ev-
cry part of town and Ohief-of- Police
Mincemoyer started out early to keep
the coasters off the sidewalks. He had
a difficult time of it.
Schools being closed owing to in
stitute the streets were full of boys
and girls and nearly everyone had a
sled. Every avenue that afforded suffi.
cient slope was selected as a coasting
ground. The coasters had no use for
the middle of the street but chose the
sidewalk everytime. AS result pede-
strisns, who wished to get along with
safety were obliged to take the mid
die of the street. Much complaint
came from the fourth ward, where the
long stretch of sloping sidewalk on the
south side of Bloom street between St.
Hubert's church and the 2. 81 r. rail-
way crossing by the hour of noon was
utterly unfit to walk upon. 1t was
during the afternoon that the police
got especially busy. The best they
could do, however, was to relieve the
situation somewhat. The knowing
ones among the coasters were not slow
to perceive that there is no penalty
provided in the ordinance for coasting
on the sidewalks. They were duly
awed by the police, however, and it
was amusing to see them scamper as
the cops approached. 1t was equally
amusing to witness them reassembling
and settling down OH the old coasting
ground as soon as the officers with
drew.
The chief-of- police invariably in.
formed the coasters that if they did
not discontinue coasting on the side.
walks they would be arrested The
chief of police states that he really
intends to carry the threat into execu.
tion. if necessary. The chief of-police
Of Bloomsbury has taken similar steps
and, IL necessary, will arrest those
who coast upon the sidewalks.
This measure, drastic as it may
seem, will be approved by most peo.
pie. 1t is right and proper that chill.
dren should be permitted to enjoy
themselves. At the same time it would
be an unwarranted Indulgence TO per.
NIT them to interfere with the com.
fort and safety of the public.

rHSS PEACOCK BRIDE
OF HOWARD r. CLARK

Howard r. CLARK, formerly OF South
Danville, and Miss Helen Peacock of
Bloomsbury we're united in matrimony
yesterday afternoon.
The ceremony was performed at the
home of the brides mother, Mrs.
Thirma Peacock, at o clock, the Rev.
Edgar r. Hickman, pastor of the First
Methodist church, officiating. The

simplicity, being witnessed only by
near friends and few relatives. The
only attendants were Miss Dorothy
Barton, niece of the bride, and William
Peacock, who gave his sister away in
marriage.
The newly welded couple left on an
extended wedding tour yesterday aft
ernoon. In January they will leave
for the Isthmus of Panama where the
groom is superintendent of construc-
tion on the great inter oceanic canal.
The bride is charming and popular
young lady of Bloomsbury. The groom,
who is the son of Mr.. aud Mrs. W. r.
CLARK of South Danville, has been EN- =
ployed on the Isthmian canal ever
since work was begun on the great
waterway. He is practical engineer
and is a young man of remarkable
energy and ambition. He has advanc-
ed rapidly on the isthmus, all of which
attests not only to his proficiency but
also to h is excellent habits and reli-
ability.

COMMITTEE
RETURNS HOME

At the next meeting of council, Fri
day night, bids submitted for the
duplicate engine and dynamo at the
municipal light plant, will be opened
and in all probability the contract
will be awarded for the same.
Ii was to qualify council to act in
teliigently on the dinerent proposals
submitted that the committee, consist
ing of Messrs. Russell. Meyer, Angle
and Electrician Smith, were sent out
on tour of inspection last week. The
preponderance Of sentiment in council
would seem to favor slow speed unit,
but there was uncertainty as to whetf
er or not such an engine and dynamo
would be found at all adapted to the
space available at the light plant and
as to whether or not they would be
found generally desirable. The com.
mittee was instructed to make an ex-
tended tour, looking over the different
types of machinery and to satisfy thesn-
selves on all matters that were in
doubt.
The four gentlemen composing the
committee returned home on Sunday
night. Leaving Danville Friday morn
ing they proceeded to Newark, N. ].
From Newark they went to New York
City, where they inspected several i'm
portant electrical plants Saturday
afternoon they went to Philadelphia,
where they further investigated the
working OF machinery of the type in
view. They made stop in Harrisburg
on their way home, where they ex-
amlned the light plant in the new
capitol.
