THE WILD MAN
OF DANVILLE

The famous wild man discovered by
Heber L. DEWITT last Sunday promises
to become an appurtenauce Of Dan
Vile, Notwithstanding the fact that
the stamping ground OF the wild fel-
low is some thirty.hys miles distant.
The above will ne made quite clear
when it is explained that the wild
man is already appropriated by the
base ball editors and what they will
not do with hiu is past conjecture.
No less a resourceful base ball scribe
than James c. Isaminger yesterday ex-
plotted the wild man in his North
American story on the Mistakes Of
Mackmen. - Said he:
Mack was stand -patter after the
romp of the day before. but Manager
Lake of Boston recast his pilgrims.
Danzig, a willowy chap, who is bnilt
on the lines of the famous wild man
OF Danviile, Pa. covered first in place
of Jake Garland Stahl, who hurt his
foot getting to the dining room Of the
Majestic. -

CARDS
BY THE BUSHEL

The post card business at the post
office, Easter, far exceeded that of
Christmas
The town carriers had all experience
that they will not soon forget. The
rush began Friday and on Saturday
everything was deluged. The Easter
cards did not come by thousands, but
by bushels.
The stamp window was open two
hours Friday and during that time
three thousand one cert stamps were
sold. The purchasers were mostly in
dividuals. who bought single stamp;
in a few instances few cents worth
or even dollars worth of stamps
were bought.
1t was made plain that hereafter an
additional carrier will have TO be en-
p'oyed, il the mail is to be promptly
delivered on Easter.

FISHERMEN
TARRY AT HOME

The rain yesterday will be apt to
make the opening day Of trout fishing
failure. Several parties, however,
undismayed by weather conditions and
willing to trust to luck left for the
mountains last evening. Others, how
ever, who were to have gone, in view
OF the rain and the flooded streams.
decided not to venture forth, but will
postpone their trip until more favor
able weather prevails.
1t seemed to lie the consensus of op-
inion among fishermen last evening
that under the circumstances, fishing
for trout except with bait las been
ruined for today. Where the streams
are muddy and full of water the front
will not rise TO fly. Neither are such
conditions favorable to much success
in bait fishing.

CORRIDORS WILL
BE PAINTED

c. Day Rudy Of Harrisburg, who
has the contract far painting aad dee
Grating the court, house arrived il
this city Tuesday morning on busi-
ness connected with his contract.
While here he was awarded some ad
ditioual work not included in the
original contract.
This comprises not only the paint
ing of the corridor on the lower floor
into which the prothonotary, the COM
missioners' and other offices open, but
also the rear stairway and the oorrid-
or on the second floor leading from it
to the back entrance of the court room.
Thus the entire building will be paint
ed and frescoed to correspond with the
court room, the vestibule and front
stairway.
Mr.. Rudy brought with him Tues
day the figure OF Justice. which will
be placed on the wall at the rear of
the bench. 1t is fine piece of work,
seven feet, eight inches high by FIVE
feet six inches wide. The figure is Of
open face, by wh.ch 1t is understood
the bandage over the eyes is omitted
in the painting. The figure Of Justice
in the old decorations was blindfold-
ed. but, as was explained in former
article, the tendency at present seems
to be toward the open face.

Decorations FOR
ODD FELLOWS DAY

The store windows, with their dis
play of stars and stripes, along with
the headquarters of the two decorating
firms, where every inch of space is
covered with flags and bunting, begin
to impart to the town quite patriotic
appearance and indicate that in point
Of decorations Danville will nave an
opportunity to do itself proud on the
Odd Fellows anniversary
Not only have contracts been award
ed for the decorating Of the court
house, the city hall and the Elks'
building. but also for quite a number
of business places OF town.
The work of decorating buildings
will begin tomorrow, although it is
not likely that much will be done at
the work until next week. April Of
late years as relates to the weather has
proven somewhat tickle and is likely
to produce oyolonio winds. For inst
auce decorations, no matter how we'll
fastened, would have been torn loose
in such winds as prevailed Tuesday to
say nothing of the greater blow that
occurred last week.
To reduce the risk to a minimum the
decorators will postpone hanging the
flags and bunting as long as possible,
preferring working overtime toward
the close to beginning too early and
being Obliged to repair damages
wrought.
Owners of property and tenants who
propose to do the work of decorating,
themselves, will find magnificent
supply of flags, bunting, &c, on hand
at the stores,
With such an evidence Of public
spirit it is hardly necessary to urge
that our citizens without exception
should give much attention to decora-
tions on the occasion of the Odd Eel
lows anniversary. Every dwelling
should display tbs stars and stripes.
Unless the town is fttiugly decorated,
no matter ~ hat else is done 30 contri-
butte to the success something will be
lacking aud there is much danger that
the visitors will receive a bad impres-
sion.

IN THE DAYS Of
Wild PIGEONS

Associate Judge Frank @. Blee spent
several hours in this city yesterday.
While at the court house he found
time to converse with several old tim
ers on the great changes that have tax
en- place during their lives.
Wild pigeons became the theme of
conversation. OF course, the young
person of the present day knows moth
ing about wild pigeons; but when the
Judge, who is now seventy, was boy
wild pigeons were factor that the
sportsman reokoued with.
Joseph r. Patton recalled that when
he was young he used TO see wild pig
cons galore They frequently swarmed
over head in millions, shutting out the
rays of the sun and casting shadow
on the earth. Judge Blee described a
net for catching the pigeons used by
him as boy, which was sixty feet
long and wide in proportion. At one
catch he trapped forty dozen.
The wild pigeons were victims Of
indiscriminate and merciless slaught-
er. They were captured throughout
the country by every means that in
genuity could devise. They not only
afforded delicious food in season but
their diminutive carcasses we're pre-
served by smoking and other means
and they graced the farmers table at
intervals during the whole year.
The wild pigeon very closely resem-
bled the tame pigeon. Each fall reg
ularly they migrated south, returning
in the spring. During the winter they
sought the rice swamps of the south
and during their flight northward in
the spring Judge Blee recalls shooting
nigeons that had rice in their craws.
The birds spent the summer in the
mountains north and west Of this
section.
Not only were the pigeons obliged
TO run the gauntlet in their migrations
spring and fall, but they were pursued
by avaricious persons into the very
mountains where they were breeding
and were shot and entrspped in nets.
AS result Of this indiscriminate
slaughter the pigeons became praotic'
ally extinct about 1860. For some years
afterward s few might have been seer
spring and fall, wiuging their flight
overhead. but long ago the last Wild
pigeon passed out of existence.
When Judge Biee was boy nearly
every farm had few wild pigeons
coopad up. which had been captured
aud were being kept as stool pigeons,
t, bs used a. decoys to draw Others
Within the net, when tho latter was
employed as means OF capturing the
birds.

ROBBERS IN
SUDBURY JAIL

Sheriff Taby and County Detective
ty, after some of the most clever detec-
tive work in the history of the county
have rounded up three of the gang
which robbed j. Madison Vought of
Mayberry township. at the point Of
revolvers of $50 at his home near Elys-
burg last t77week.
The men ere Anthony Zenda, of New
York Harry Ramsey, of Bunker Hill
near ShamokiD and Mike Sluskie. of
Springfield. that enterprising suburb
of Shamokin where occurred the mur-
der for which Staney Marcavitch is
condemned to be hanged.
The most important man of.the trio
is Zenda. He is known as bad man,
and a number of times he has done
strong acts on amateur nights in the
Shamokin theatres. When the officers
suspected that he had a hand in the
robbery they went to boarding house
where he was known to have been
staying lately, but there no trace Of
him could be found, and no definite
information could be cleaned as to his
whereabouts. They finally got on his
trail and caught him by ruse.
Through an outside party he was in
duced to 30 to the Miners hotel on
Second street. Shamokin, Monday
night with the understanding that
there awaited him there theatrical
manager who wanted to put him on a
vaudeville circuit at large salary.
While lie was signing the contract the
officers walked in and placed him un
der arrest. He was dressed in new
clothes and seemed to have plenty Of
money He was taken to the Sunbury
Jail.
Comfy Detective Glass then went to
Bunker Hill and Springfield and cap
tured the other two men yesterday
morning They too we're taken to jail.
There is little doubt but that they
are the men wanted as knives were
found on their persons, corresponding
to weapons fiourished at the time of
the robbery.
1t is believed this is the same gang
that robbed the residences CT NJ. II.
Kulp and Nj. IL. Barr, at Edgewood
park, near Shamokin, last Friday
night, and they Will likely be held in
Northumberland county to answer that
and other charges.

wide granolithic pavement on the
base constitute tie principal part OF
ths work that remains to be done.
MIR. Amedon Tuesday explained
that the work would require but a
very short time in ten days, he said,
the contractors would be off the ground
and the spot would be cleared OF der
rick. sheds and of all the material that
remained.
This is the very best of news to our
townspeople. who are anxious that the
monument shall be completed and the
park cleaned up by the date of the Odd
Fellows anniversary. After the con
tractors leave sufficient margin of
time will remain TO reconstruct the
walks and restore the sod where in
