PROMOTING A NEW
AMUSEMENT PLACE

In an interview with a prominent
resident of the south side Friday plans
were disclosed to an American report
er for an amusement enterprise which
will eclipse anything in that line in
this section of the State. The gentle.
man who gave the information desir-
ed that his name be withheld and also
the identity of those who are backing
the movement.
The plans, however, are we'll devel.
oped, the gentleman stated, and in.
clude principally the identifying of a
large section of the river bank in the
vicinity of the d. & S. trolley termi-
nal on the south side and the erection
of magnificent pavilion.
The tract of land on which the i'm.
provements are contemplated lies
within 300 feet of the d. g. S. trolley
terminal and includes about 300 feet
of the river bank at this point, with
Susquehanna avenue on the north.
The plans of the half dozen mer
who are interested in the project, is
to erect pavilion 75 by $50 feet sur.
rounded on the four sides by a 10 foot
promenade. On the south the prone
made will overhang the river bank and
afford view that will be unexcelleC
in this vicinity. On the north Susque
hanna ave. will be improved so as tc
afford beautiful and convenient ap
proach to the pleasure resort
In the pavilion a first class dancing
floor will be installed and the whole
brilliantly illuminated. 1t is also thu
intention to install docking facilitie
for small craft and bath houses.

MAN EXPIRES
IN A STABLE

William English, an old-time ore
miner to whom the fates in recent
years were not kind, died in stable
at the rear of hotel Eagle, early Satur-
day morning. 1t is the story of man
who was i'll and feeble and without a
home.
The. deceased was single man. He
was over fifty years of age and was
we'll known about town, recently be-
ing employed as a laborer on the bor-
ough sewer and at other work of the
same kind Last fall his mother died.
Following her death until recently he
lived with his niece on Sidler hill.
Recently, it seems, he had been lead
ing precarious existence, without
any home and shifting as well as he
could.
On Friday evening he went into the
barn i'll which he died. He was un.
mistakably i'll and DR.. Hinchellwood
was called, who prescribed for him.
His brother Peter English and Harry
Owen looked after him during the
night.
A story was current Saturday morn
ing to the effect that he was found
dead in the barn but this is denied.
Martin Slayin, it is explained, was
with him when he died. To ease the
man Mr.. Slavin assisted him to turn
around. A moment or so later he
breathed his last. DR.. HinChelwood is
of the opinion that pneumonia de-
veloped during the night and was the
direct cause of death.
Justice of the Peace James Dalton
Immediately Investigated the man S
death and came to the conclusion that
an inquest was not necessary. District
Attorney GearhaIt started an investi-
cation at the same time and came to
the same conclusion.
The body was turned over to John
Doster' sons, undertakers, by whom
it was removed to their undertaking
rooms, where the funeral will be held.

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
intlamed condition of the mucous lin.
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is intiamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
il is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by Catarrh, which
is nothing but an inflamed 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 5

To SAVE FOURTH
OF JULY VICTIMS
HARRISBURG, June 81


Health Commissioner Dixon plans to
fight for the lives of poor children of
Pennsylvania who may be in danger
of tetanus by distributing anti-tetanus
serum free of charge to such needy
ones as may be injured by explosives
on July 4.
The serum will be distributed at
forty-two points throughout Pennsyl
vania, chosen by reason of their ac-
cessibility. The danger of tetanus
from explosive wounds is very great,
as the appalling sacrifice of lives in the
past shows. If, promptly after the
wound is received, the injured one is
treated with immunizing doses of anti
tetanus serum the danger of lockjaw
developing is warded off, just as diph-
liberia anti-toxin is used to protect
children who have been exposed to
that disease. That no poor child in
Pennsylvania shall die for the want of
this preventive treatment is the pur-
pose of Health Commissioner Dixon.
These tetanus anti-toxin stations
will furnish the serum on the applica-
tion of a physician who certifes that
it is for the use of an INDECENT case.
The doctor also agrees to funish the
State Department of Health with a
clinical report of the case for tabula.
tion and study.
The place nearest to Danville where
the serum may be obtained is at the
drug store of VIM. X. Armstrong at
Sunbury.
DR.. Dixon said today that. t.encourag-
ing results are being obtained along
number of lines of scientific research
work that is being done at the State
Department of Health laboratories
The cancer experients are proving ex-
ceedingly interesting, he stated, from
the fact that the cancers in the amin
ais treated seem to be favorably affect
ed by the oragnic products used.

THE ONLY WAY
Many DanviIle Citizens Have Discovered

Just what to do when the kidneys
are affected, is question that con-
Germs both young and old. Weak kid
neys neglected in childhood lead to
lifelong suffering. People of advano.
ed years, with less vitality, suffer
doubly. In youth or age, languor
backache, urinary irregularity, dizzi-
ness and nervousness make life burd-
en-.
There is one remedy that acts direct
ly on the kidneys and cures these
troubles Doan's Kidney Pills owe
their world fame to the fact that
they cure sick kidneys and cure them
permanently Follow the example of
this Danville citizen and you will be
convinced that this is so.
Mrs. Leo Meter, 264 W. Mahoning
Street, Danville, Pa, says: II used
Doan's Kidney Pills about three years
ago when suffering from backache and
other symptoms of kidney trouble. A
few doses of this remedy relieved me
and l was thus induced to continue its
use until cured. Doan's Kidney Pills
have my hearty endorsement. "

BUILDING LARGE
WAREHOUSES;

Extensive building operations are on
foot in the rear of the Welliver COM
pany's establishment on Mill street.
Ground has already been broken for a
warehouse one hundred feet square
and two stories in height on the west
side of the alley.
The plans include the demolition of
the group of buildings between the
store and the alley and the erection on
the site of another building 100 feet
long by 25 feet wide. The warehouse
proper will be of frame with cement
floor. The second building, between
the alley and the store, will be of
brick. Combined the two structures
will afford ample floor space for a
large business.
At the warehouse a portion of the
concrete foundation is already con-
structed. Work on the other building
will begin in short time. Mr.. wei
liver yesterday stated that both build
ings will be pushed to completion as
rapidly as possible. He hopes to have
them ready for use in three months
time.
1t is Mr. Welliver's intention to
launch out into the wholesale busi-
ness. Pending the completion of the
buildings the firm will do moderate
iobbing business. The wholesale busi-
ness will be conducted in the name of

HALLS DAMAGE
ALL ROUND US

One of the worst hail storms that
ever visited this section of the coun
try on Saturday swept a number of
towns about here, but fortunately miss.
ed this town. From points on all sides
of Danville stories of serious havoc
come, but while it grew dark and
threatening here, little rain was all
that resulted.
The storm visited Sunbury between
- and | O'Clock, the hail stones being
as large as hen eggs, the largest of
them measuring six inches i'll circum-
ference. Windows were broken, roofs
dented and in some instances broken
through and gardens and farm land
laid waste. One resident of Sunbury
was struck on the head by a hail stone
and an inch cash was cut.
At Shamokin the damage is estimat-
ed at $4,000 in windows broken alone.
The hail stones Were driven by a ter
rifle wind and did great damage.
No hail fell at Blnomsburg, but in
the upper end of ColGmbia and at Ber-
wick the storm was most severe. At
Berwick the hail stones are described
as being as large a. lemons and one
picked up at Briar Creek measured II
inches in circumference.
The storm extended on up the north
branchand was severe at Shickshinny
where many windows were broken.
In all the intervening territory the
farmers suffered more or less loss. In
some places crops were beaten to the
ground and even trees were striped of
their foliage,
At Danville no hail fell at all, but
hail is reported from Valley and Coop
er townships and from Roaring Greek,
not so severe, however, as at the more
distant places.
