act has been clean cut and above
board. Few other men in this state
who have built up such a successful
business as his can stare the public
eye without fear Of having the least
mote of discredit loom up to BRING
blush; he stands today as ever, a
man against whose probity and in.

KILLED THREE
BIG BLACKSNAKES

In this season when snake stories are
ripe, perhaps to following, vouched
for by George Q. Foust, of Cooper
township, deserves special mention, as
little above the average as a thrill
Ter.
On Friday morning Mr.. Foust soon
after leaving his farm near Zion school
house for Danville, espied a monster
blacksnake coiled around the base of a
tree alongside the road. Hurrying back
to the house, Foust secured the ser
vices Of young man boarding with
him, who succeeded in breaking the
snakes back by we'll placed rife
shot.
In endeavoring to get better shot
with a view TO finishing him off, the
young man stepped directly into nest
of the snakes, Luckily they seemed
more frightened than he and before
they made their escape, he had killed
two of the largest. The entire time
consumed in the operation was less
than minute.
Two were over six feet long and as
thick as man S arm.
The other measured about four feet.

doubt but that there will be a general
response. Many pupils, instead of a
single flower, no doubt, will bring a
handful. During the forenoon a com
mittee appointed by Goodrich post will
visit the school buildings of the bor-
ough for the purpose of gathering up
the flowers that have been donated by
the pupils.
The pupils Of the public schools will
also participate in the ceremonies of
Decoration day. As has occurred dur
ing several years past the school chill
dren will join the march to the ceme-
terry. Returning to town after the
ceremonies the children, with the Wo-
mans relief corps will perform the
beautiful and impressive ceremony of
strewing flowers on the river in mem
ory Of the sailors and marines who
lost their lives in the civil and other
wars.
Flowers seem more plentiful than
last year, when the growing conditions
were less favorable There should,
therefore, be no difficulty in obtaining
all the flowers needed this year, if all
that can possibly do so will lend
helping hand. 1t is we'll known that
the veterans are obliged to rely in
great measure upon the public for
flowers. 1t is hoped that the response
will be quite as general and as liberal
as it was last year and previously. To-
morrow is the day set for receiving
flowers at the rooms of Goodrich post
by the veterans. During the afternoon
the flowers will be made into bouquets
and on Saturday morning the graves
of the soldiers will be decorated by
committees appointed for that pur-
pose.
The ministers Of town have been in
vited by the veterans to join them at
the cemetery and assist in the cere-
monies. Music for the march will be
furnished by the p. o. S. of A. drum
corps.
