MRS. ALICE BEAVER
PASSES AWAY

Mrs. Mary Alice Beaver died at her
home, West Market street, yesterday
morning after long illness.
The deceased was the widow OF Ar
thur W. Beaver, who died about nine
teen years ago. She was fifty-nine
years of age. She was the daughter of
Joseph and Elizabeth Diehl and was a
representative of an old and promi
nent family. She is survived by o ne
brother, \. NJ Diehl, and half sis
ter, Mrs. Ellen Ephlin.
The news Of Mrs, Beavers death
comes as a great surprise to most peo-
pie. Although she was in failing
health for a year or more prior to her
demise, yet it was not generally
known that her condition was crit
ical. 1t was only during week or so
past that it became evident that she
could not survive any length of time.
Death was due to complication of
diseases.
Mrs. Beaver was a member of the
Mahoning Presbyterian church. She
was a consistent Christian. She was a
very charitable woman and it might
be said of her that her chief pleasure
consisted in doing good unto others.
The funeral will take place on Sat
urday, interment being made in the
Beaver plot at Lewisburg. Funeral
services will be held at the late resi-
dence, No. 205 West Market street, at
10 o'clock Saturday morning. On the
1851 D. L. & W. train the funeral
will proceed to Lewisburg, where in
terment will take place Immediately
after arriving.

ENGINEERS BAD
ACCIDENT

Charles Pusey. engineer at the Dan
willie Foundry and Machine works. met
with o bad fall Tuesday, which re-
suited in the fracture of his left arm.
Mr.. Pusey had climbed ladder to
oil the shafting. He thought the lad
der was secure, but owing to some oil
upon the floor the lower end slipped
and man and ladder came tumbling TO
the floor
Mr. Pusey, who fell some ten feet,
alighted on a lathe, striking his left
arm on iron surface in such way as
to fracture both bones near the wrist.
In addition the wrist was badly sprain-
ed
Mr.. Pusey went to the Office Of DR..
PauIes, who set the broken bone and
gave such other treatment as was need
ed. The injured man during the rest
of the day suffered much pain as the
result of the sprain and fracture.
The injured man is an expert en-
ploye and will be much missed by the
Danville Foundry and Machine COM
pany, where he has been employed for
many years. A few years ago Mr..
Pusey sustained serious accident
while at work and was confined to his
home for long time.

SHOOT
MANY DOCS

Hydrophobia and the onslaught on
dogs has constituted the principal topic
of conversation about town since Sun
day. The interest, il possible. was in
creased yesterday when our officers,
armed with repeating shot guns, start
ed out to enforce the resolution adopt
ed by council at its special meeting
Monday night.
No report has been made to show
how many dogs running at large with
out being properly muzzIed during the
day fell victim to the officers uner-
ring aim, but the number was no doubt
large. 1t is. s.known that prior to 10 a.
N. Chief Mincemoyer shot six dogs,
while Officer Voris had nearly as large
number to his credit.
The case of rabies involving the loss
Of human life and the uncertainty
as to how many dogs have been bitten
has caused a feeling of dread and
anxiety among the people. All classes
seem to applaud the action of council
in enacting the drastic resolution
above alluded to. Council would have
been criticised had it done less.
1t seems to be the opinion of people
who travel that Danville has more
dogs in proportion to its population
than any other town in this section.
The hope is expressed that the rigid
enforcement of the resolution adopted
by council may have the effect of some
what reducing the number of dogs, es-
pecially those of the more worthless
sort.
One of our physicians yesterday
stated that he had been attacked while
visiting the sick and actually driven
nearly squaresby dogs which came
in troops. 1t is not an unusual thing
for families to own two or three dogs.
Many of the latter are positively vic
ious and are objects of dread not only
to the physicians but also to the mail
carriers and others who are obliged to
visit the houses.
The officers.state that they are deter
mined to insistsupon the 'closed wire
muzzle'' and will shoot any dog that
is turned loose without proper muz-
zle, one that will prevent the dog
from biting.
\ citizen Of Cooper township, who
was in'this city yesterday, said that
the same excitementyon the score of
rabies may be found between Danville
and Bloomsbury that exists in Dan
Vile. 1t was in the vicinity Of Grov-
ania that two of the dogs that ran
amuck in Danville were killed. 1t is
more than suspected that large num-
ber of other dogs were bitten, all with
in few weeks constituting the aver
! age period Of incubation. The condi-
tion existing, he said. has been re-
ported TO the Live Stock Sanitary
board and it is reasonably certain that
in the next few days all the dogs will
be quarantned by the State in NAH
oning and Cooper townships, this coun-
ty, and in Montour township, Colum-
bis county.

NO PAVING
This SUMMER

Many inquiries are being made as to
the exact status of the proposition to
pave East Market street. When the
matter was before council Lasts couple
of months ago, the borough solicitor
made it clear to council that the street
might be paved with State aid under
the act of May 8, 1905. The council
men adopted the solicitors views and
il seemed tacitly understood that no
time would be lost in determining
whether it would be practicable to
pave the street under the above act.
Just what progress has been made
and whether there is a ghost OF a
chance of the street being paved this
year are points on which the public
crave enlightenment \ special effort
was made by representative of this
paper Saturday to obtain some informa-
tion along these lines.
Ii seems doubtful whether any ma
terial progress has been made. At
least those approached regretfully
acknowledged that, while the PROPOSE
tion to pave the street with State aid
has not been abandoned, there is moth
ing that can be said at present that
will show that the work will likely
90 forward in the near future. The
safe inference is that, whether done
with State aid or otherwise, the street
will not be paved the present year, all
of which is very discouraging news to
those who use the rough and badly
kept thoroughfare and had looked for
ward with hope that the street would
be paved the present year.
Meanwhile the borough is doing
some very important work on other
streets. Cherry street is being mac
adamized between Bloom and Center
streets. The street where reconstruct
ed has been excavated to an average
depth of ten inches The first course
applied is cinder The second or top
course. which will be four inches
thick, will be of limestone, No, 2 size.
The excavation is completed about
half way between Bloom and Center
streets Along something over one
fourth of the distance excavated the
cinder is applied.
Street Commissioner Miller has eight
men and three carts employed on the
job. The street is kept open to traffic
while the work is in progress
Among other streets recently mac
adamized are Pine and Ferry streets
between Bloom and Center.
Brick crossings have also been laid
at Front and Pine streets and at Iron
and Front streets.

WAY Open FOR
AN ARMORY

The citizens of Danville will be glad
to learn that the way is now open for
them to secure au armory, one OF the
imposing twenty. Thousand dollar
structures being built by the state un-
der the act of May IL, 1905.
Since the enactment of the law arm
cries have been erected by the State
in many of the larger towns and Cit
les. That Danville's turn has now
come may be gathered from the re-
marks of Colonel @. NJ. Clement made
during a recent conversation with the
officers of Company f. According to
the colonel Danville should be one of
the towns selected on which to expend
the armory appropriation granted by
the next Legislature.
The other towns in which a pressing
need for an armory exists, Colonel
Clement explained, have been pretty
we'll supplied. He advised the com
pany to go to work Immediately and
secure q site, assuring them that the
armory would follow after the next
session Of the legislature. To assist
in bringing about the result Colonel
Clement assured the company's officers
that he would assist in every way pos
sible to secure the armory.
One circumstance, it was explained,
that would weigh very heavily in fav-
or of State armory .in Danville is
the fact that the building used as an
armory here has been condemned by
every officer that has held inspection
here for years past. The room is not
only inadequate for purposes of drill,
&C., but it is also regarded as afford
ing poor protection for State property.
TOWN MUST FURNISH SITE.
Colonel Clement made it clear that
while Danville is in line for State
armory under existing conditions, yet
it would be worse than folly for the
town to dream of winning out, unless
it decides to follow the example Of
other towns and present site for the
armory to the State. To secure twen-
tv thousand dollar building, free, mere
ly by the presentation Of a site is a
business proposition that appeals to
every wide-awake municipality. Con-
sequently, as each appropriation be-
comes available there are several towns
or cities waiting, each desiring to con-
tribte a site for State armory.
Under such circumstances it is too
much to suppose that those progressive
and generous towns would be turned
down by the board and the armory
given to some slow municipality that
is not willing to contribute site for
building that would be a permanent
ornament and would cost the town
nothing.
| Danville wants State armory there
| is no question about it. The whole
matter of site is up to the citizens,
and there is comparatively little time
to act in. Which site shall beEselect'
ed? How shall it be obtained? Will
some progressive person donate the
ground, or will citizens unite and
raise the money needed? What part
will Company f play in securing a
site? All these are questions that sug
gest themselves in connection witt
the armory proposition-questions thai
must be answered by some settled
course of action, in which the whole
town cooperates and efforts are direct
ed toward securing an available site
in the shortest period Of time.

INTERESTING
~ ITINERARY

The Rev. DR.. Mccormack, pastor of
the Grove Presbyterian church, is
quite busy preparing for his trip TO
the British Isles. He leaves Danville
on next Tuesday and the day follow
ing, June 24th, he embarks on the
Steamship Mauretania
1t is doubtful whether an itinerary
was ever planned.beforeln which all
the features, combined to invest the
trip with such peculiar interest. not
only to the person going abroad but
also to his friends remaining behind
who wished him godspeed on his long
journey.
In the first place, the steamship Sc
leoted is the very newest, the largest
and swiftest in the service-a compan-
ion ship to the Lusitania, on which
DR.. Mccormack will make the return
voyage-ships which have cut the act
ual time spent inicrossing the ocean
down to less thanfsix days.
DR.. McCormackEwill land in Liver
pool about the last of June. He will
proceed at once to Southport IS miles
distant, where he will spend a week
visiting his sister. He will then jour
ney to the north of Ireland, visiting
Londonderry and Carrigans. The lat
ter place possesses a.peculiar interest
to Danville .people, by reason of the
fact that it was the-early home of our
townsman, sHon. James Foster. Some
twelve miles from Carrigans lies the
town of Newton Stewart, in the coun.
ty OF Tyrone, the birth place of the
Rev. DR.. Mccormack.
The pastor of the Grove church was
less than year old when his parents
removed rom.Newton Stewart. AL
though he previously made.one or more
trips to the British.Isles, he has never
been in the town of his birth since ne
left it as an infant.
DR.. Mccormack will indulge in a
pleasing bit of sentiment in this, his
first visit to Newton Stewart He has
planned to spend Sunday there-a Sun
day on which his birthday happens 20
occur-and he will attend divine SER
vices, worshiping in the same church
in which his father officiated as past
or when he was an infant.
DR.. Mccormack next objective
point will be Southboro, County of
Monahan, where the Mccormack Cor
McCormick) family, now scattered
over the British possessions and Am
erica, is said to have originated.
Newbridge. near South boro, which
DR.. Mccormack will also visit, is an
other town that possesses an interest
to Danville people, as it was the early
home Of our able and esteemed physi
clan, Er. James Oglesby.
The itinerary will embrace Belfast,
Liverpool and a tour through the
north of England. At York, DR.. Nc
Cormack will visit all old school chum.
He will spend some time in the famous
Yorkshire dales, known as the play
ground Of England" He will spend
one week in the city Of London, en-
barking for home on August 18th.
