DAYS of the district Following the
return of many from Rawhide and
other boom gold camps there was
sharp advance in confidence in Black
horse district in particular and some
thing of a rush has since been on IN
that direction. Those who have look
ed the boom gold camps over and
then made comparisons with Black
horse have without exception de-
clared highly in favor of the latter.
Most of these assert that Blackhorse
has greater surface showing than
they saw in any of the outside camps,
while the development work that has
been done has shown far greater ore
riches in ore opened than Rawhide
can show TO this time.
At San Pedro preparations are 60
ing ahead for the installation of the
20-stamp mill, which will be opera
ted by the Blackhorse Central. San
Pedro is incidentally being looked
forward to as coming town of
considerable proportions The San
Pedro mine has much ore on the
dump ready to ship to mill just as
soon as the latter is ready for bust
ness. That this ore will successfully
mill and return handsome profits Is
declared 10 have been well de.

Present outlook is that during the
summer practically every property In
the district will get under operation
and it is confidently expected thai
the general resumption of activity
will bring about something exceed

ing new capital. The latter is a neet

WITNESSES
FAIL TO APPEAR

The coroner's jury consisting of
William Kimbel, r. II. Bird, S. III.
Shultz. Lafayette Seohler, William
Welliver aud NJ. l.. Richart, empanel-
ed in connection with the discovery of
the body in the river at Kipp's run
one week ago, reassembled at the office
of Justice of the Peace E. w. Young
Saturday evening, but they were un-
able to render verdict owing to the
absence of important witnesses.
The jurors were sworn Sunday of
last week. after which they viewed
the body. The intention was to recon-
vene Monday night following and
render a verdict. The Identification
of the body as that of Abram W. Jones
of Plymouth and the necessity of hav-
ing some of the family of the deceased
appear as witnesses led to postpone
ment Of the inquest.
Acting Coroner Z. W. Young called
up justice of the peace of Plymouth
who had assisted in the Identification
and recovery of the body and request
ed that members of the family appear
at South Danville Saturday evening
for the purpose of testifying. The
justice left the acting coroner under
the impression that witnesses would
be on hand.
AS above stated, however. when the
jurors reassembled there was no one
present from Plymouth. Instead. how
eyre, there was an affidavit from the
Rev. Mr.. Griffith to the effect that he
had identified the body as that of Abb
ram W. Jones.
The latter evidence, of course, was
essential, but it was not all 1t was
equally important that the jurors
should hear testimony relating to the
mans disappearance from his home so
that they might determine whether it
was case of suicide or whether there
was room for suspicion of foul play.
Under the circumstances the jurors
decided not to proceed with the case,
Saturday night, but to adjourn the in
quest until some subsequent date,
when. if possible, the wife or son of
the deceased, if not both. should be
present.
To procure their attendance when
wanted the acting coroner will sub
Doena the witnesses needed in due and
legal form.
If the facts relating to the man s
disappearance, the leaving of note
behind, etc, as related by the Rev.
Mr.. Griffith and printed in the News,
be sworn to by members of the family,
eye witnesses of events, the jury would
probably have no difficulty of reach.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is infiamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and WHEN
it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restor-
ed to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarh, which
is nothing but an infiamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall S

Fell Into Canal.

A ripple of excitement was cause d
on Mill street Monday morning when
the four-ysar- old son of V. Palmasano,
the Italian fruiterer, fell from the top
of the high culvert into the canal.
The accident took place about 10
O'Clock. The little boy was playing
on the culvert aud finally climbed out
side the railing, where he lost his bal
ance and fell down over the edge of
the wall into the canal.
The fall was one OF fifteen feet
Fortunately the child landed in the
middle of the canal where his fall was
broken by shallow stream of water
and bed of mud. He escaped injury,
although he was very badly frighten-
ed
Several bystanders saw the little fell
low fall, among them being Walter
Rupp, who ran to his assistance wad-
ing out into the middle of the canal
and bringing the boy into shore.
The little fellow landed right at the
entrance of the arched waterway and
had the water been only trifie high
er he would have stood in great dang
er of being carried through under the
culvert and probably drowned.

SHERIFF, I'LL
DIE GAME

Sheriff, " I'll die game and I'll
die innocent. were the words utter
ed by Stauny Marcavich in his cell at
the Northumberland county prison at
Sunbury, Saturday morning when
Sheriff Taby read the death warrant
conveying to him the official informa.
tion that Governor Stewart had fixed
Tuesday. June 9th as the day for his
execution.
During all the time that Sheriff
Taby was reading the death warrant
Marcavich paid close attention and
never showed the least trace of ner-
vousness. When the sheriff had con-
cluded Marcavich answered as above
in strong, loud and clear voice.
The death warrant was received by
Sheriff Taby on the early morning
mail Saturday and bore the signatures
of Governor Edwin NJ, Stuart and
Secretary of the Commonwealth Rob-
ert McAfee.
Stanny's last hope now rests with
the board of pardons, and il they do
not commute the death sentence to life
imprisonment, which is not consider
ed likely, he will be taken to the Jail
yard and hanged on the day fixed by
the governor.

THE Y. NJ. c. A.
LACKS FUNDS

AT a recent meeting of the board of
directors of the local Y NJ O. a. the
financial condition of the Association
was thoroughly discussed. The direct
ors found that they were being handi-
capped in all phases of the work by
the lack of funds.
They found, among other things,
that the general secretary, who should
be devoting good share OF his time
to spiritual work, under the existing
conditions. is compelled to almost en-
tirely confine his attention to money
matters, in order to keep the income
of the Association from falling below
the actual running expenses. Recent
ly, in order to meet expenses, the board
was put to the necessity of borrowing.
To relieve the stringency the board
is now perfecting plans for thorough
canvass of the town flor memberships
and funds. The Y M. Q. A. is a gift
to Danville from one of the most pub
lie spirited men who ever lived in this
town, and the citizens of the commun-
ity which the Association is calcnlat-
ed to benefit should not allow a few
dollars to retard its usefulness.
During the canvass about to be made
the board of directors hope the people
will respond and assist in placing the
Association on sound financial basis,
thus permitting the officials to devote
more Of their time to religious work.

SELLING WHEAT
At ONE DOLLAR

The farmers on the south side are
benefiting from the advance in wheat
and are practically cleaning out their
granaries at one dollar per bushel.
Thomas Elmes and III. E. Bohner,
the latter proprietor of the mill at
Roaring Creek, are buying all the
wheat that can be obtained in Rush,
and adjoining townships. They are
shipping from South Danville, Roar
ing creek and Paxinos. On Saturday
they finished loading the second car at
South Danville.
The scene presented about the sta
tion during the two days was quite a
remarkable one. At times there were
as many as sixteen wagons in group
waiting for an opportunity to unload.
AS early as 6 O'Clock Saturday morn
ing six loaded wagons were lined up
near the car awaiting the arrival of
the man in charge. All of which in.
dicates that the farmers appreciate the
opportunity to get rid of their wheat
in such unlimited quantities at one
dollar per bushel.
BY Saturday night Messrs. Elmes
and Bonner had loaded 5000 bushels of
wheat at South Danville. Many of the
farmers earlier in the season sold por-
tions of their last years crop, but the
two dealers state that there is still a
great deal of wheat stored up in Rush
township, as we'll as elsewhere, the
most of which they have purchased.
During the present week they expect
to ship six car loads additional.

HAND INJURED
IN MEAT CUTTER

George Hoffman, employed at Joseph
Smiths meat market, this city, met
with bad accident about II a. III.
Monday as the result of which his
left hand was badly mutilated and he
sustained the loss of two fingers.
Mr.. Hoffman was cutting up meat
for sausage, using the customary meat
cutter operated by steam. He stopped
the machinery and had his hand about
the knives when something occurred
to cause the cutter to start. In an in
stant the mans hand was under the
knives, which are so arranged that in
an instant they are capable of doing
fearful execution on whatever falls un-
der them.
By the time Mr.. Hoffman was able
to extreate his hand it was shocking
ly mutilated. The first and second
fingers mp to the middle johns were
literally chopped to pieces. On the
ball of the thumb there was long
cash. which laid the flesh open to the
bone. The endSofithe thumb was also
very badly lacerated.
The injured man was hurried off to
the office of DR.. p. @. Newbaker He
pluckily bore up under the painful in
jury and was able to walk all the way
to the DOCTORS office, although the loss
of blood was very great and he could
be tracked by the red trail that he left
on the sidewalk
The man was in the Doctors hands
for nearly two hours. DR.. Curry was
called in to assist in making the ampu-
tation. The first and second fingers Of
the left hand were amputated at the
middle joint, in addition to which the
several cuts and gashes on the hand
were sewed up.
The injured man will be inoapscit-
ated for work for many weeks to come.
