THE PAPERS ARE
ALL EXECUTED

Our citizens will be gratified to learn
that all the papers relating to the paw
ing of section of East Market street
have been executed and that work on
this long-deferred improvement will
go forward at once.
At the direction of the finance COM
mittee of council Borough Secretary
Harry B. Patton went to Sunbury yes
terday afternoon and succeeded in
bringing the whole affair to conclu-
sion without single hitch. The
security on the bond for $40, 900 given
by w. H. Lyon, the contractor, was
found to be first class. The bond is ac-
cordingly acceptable. In addition to
the bond Mr.. Loyn signed release re-
lieving and discharging the borough
of Danville from all responsibility or
liability to see that he is paid and
compensated for any and all work done
by him upon said street other than the
work stipulated and contracted for to
be done by him for the borough and
the abutting property owners, and
more specifically against guaranteeing
the accounts or payments of the Dan
Vile and Sunbury Transit company.
Today Mr.. Lyon loads his two steam
rollers and various tools on p q r.
train; they will arrive at Danville in
day or so and will be unloaded at
the p & r. switch near East Market
street. Work on the improvement will
start next Monday and will be pushed
to completion as rapidly as possible.
The curbing, all of which is cut and
ready to be loaded on the cars, will
arrive by the time it will be needed.

ANOTHER DOG
DEVELOPS RABIES

Another case of rabies has develop
ed in Danville, the dog infected be-
longing to Isaac Stein, the shoemaker.
A diagnosis of rabies was made by DR..
J. o. Reed Sunday morning, after
which the dog was killed.
The veterinarian considers the case
well-defined one, the symptoms in
all respects corresponding to those
shown by the dog that figured in the
recent outbeark of rabies, the head of
which was sent away for examination.
In order that there may be no uncer-
tainty in the present case the head OF
the dog killed Sunday was also sent
to the laboratory of the State Live
stock Sanitary Board for microscopic
examination. 1t will probably be q
week before report is received by
the veterinarian.
Meanwhile it is Burgess Amesbury'
opinion that the community should be
placed at no risk. He is in favor of
establishing general quarantine
against dogs in Danville, if not
throughout the whole county. He i'm
mediately took the matter up with the
president of council Sunday and the
result is that special meeting of that
body was called for 10 O'Clock Mon
day morning, the object being to con-
slider the question of declaring gen.
eral quarantine against dogs. Mean,
while the veterinarian in the case,
who under the rules becomes an agent
of the State Live Stock Sanitary board
has taken the matter up with that
body.
There is no question as the attitude
of the State Live Stock Sanitary BOARD
in the premises Should council deem
that conditions warrant it the board
will establish and maintain genera
quarantine against dogs-provided the
borough officials will agree to effectu
ally enforce the provisions of said
quarantine.
If council acts favorably it will be 6
couple of days probably before the
notices can be printed and forwarded
to Danville by the State Livestock
Sanitary board. Meanwhile ii is q
time for great caution. Let every dog
which is under the least suspicion OF
having been bitten at any time, be tied
up. On general principles dogs should
be given a wide berth during this hot
weather, as they are especially irrit'
able and are apt to reward friendly
caress with snap, which may cause
the person bitten great deal of an
xiety, even if nothing worse should
insue.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us Strong
and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 800 grains
of impure matter daily, when unheal-
thy some part of this impure matter
is left in the blood. This brings on
many diseases and symptoms-pain in
the back, headache, nervousness, hot,
dry skin, rheumatisms, govt, gravel,
disorders of the eyesight and hearing,
dizziness. irregular heart. debility,
drowsiness, dropsy, deposits in the
urine, etc But if you keep the filters
right you will have no trouble with
your kidneys.

Danville, Pa, says: In 1907 l took

HANDCUFFED TOGETHER

There were no less than half a dozen

They were a hard looking lot. The

Three of the fellows revealed their
character during the afternoon by get
ting drunk and indulging in a fight
near the water works. In the scrim.
mage the clothing was nearly all torn

Chief Mincemoyer raided the UNI
brella men, but they escaped and went
to the south side. Later they returned
to Danville and renewed their orgies
ON Ferry street near Market street,
where their conduct became disgrace
full. Here the fellows were nabbed by
Chief Mincemoyer, who hand cuhed
them together and piloted them to the
lookup. Sunday they were driven

A Wanderinq Lake.

Lake Nor, In the Tabi desert, In
southwestern Asia, which has been
called the wandering lake" presents
a phenomenon about which contra
dictory views have been entertained.
Perhaps the Swedish explorer Sven
Hedin has given the most plausible
explanation touching this phenome-
non.
1t appears, according to that explor-
er, that the Tarim river, entering the
lake from the west, brings down dur
ing the period of high water late In
summer great quantity of salt,
which has the effect of driving the lake
lying on the level floor of the desert
toward the southeast. But the sum
mer wind, drifting the surface sand
and darkening the heavens with dust,
blows generally from the mort east,
and it. too. tends to drive the lake be-
fore it. The combined effect of the
urging by the wind and the river Is
to force the lake southwark Yet 1t
is thought the migration Of the lake
is not constant in direction, but 1t
shifts back and forth Internationally,
according rs the circumstances change.

CELLAR CHAMPS
NEARLY DID It

With firm hold ON Danville's coat
collar Alden was just about ready to
administer the boot Saturday that
would yank the leaders down-a-peg.
The tail enders had profited by loose
playing on the part of the Champs in
the second and homer in the fourth
to the extent of four runs and by fair
ly close work had kept the locals from
getting lead until the ninth when
Bremen and Wagner's hits put over
the deciding run.
1t was much better game that the
small crowd saw on Saturday. While
the playing of neither side caused
many exclamations of admiration,
there was an element of doubt as to
the outcome for while that added
zest to the proceedings.
Ainsworth and Guber were the op-
posing twirlers, the Danville boy, with
IL strike outs and only hits allowed,
having much the better of the argu-
ment. Alden was allowed but three
hits. Two of these they collected in
the second and these coupled up with
base on balls, an error, two stolen
bases and loose work by the Danville
infield netted the visitors three runs.
Alden's other tally was home run by
Olshefski in the fourth. After that but
one extra batter faced Ainsworth-
when Wagner dropped Smiths fly in
the fifth.
Danville touched Guber for IL safe
ties, but did not put their bingles to
such good use as did Alden. Six of
Danville's hits came in innings when
no scoring was done.
Danville's winning run was not
scored until the last innings. Liven-
good flied out to center. Brennan then
drove two bagger into left field and
advanced to third on Guber's low
throw to second. Wagner jimmied the
game by plunking over the right field
fence.

The Castle of Desmond,

One of the finest French renaissance
buildings In France is the Castle OF
Despond famous in the legendary lore
OF the Toulousain country in which it
stands. Over the window of one of
the inner courtyards is sculptured in
the stone a head above the MOTTO
"Plus d'Espoir." These were the last
words of Rose de Martial, whose story
has been sung by the poets of Tou-
louise, She was the daughter of the
house of Martial, to whom the castle
belonged, and she was courted by the
lord of CaStelnat, whose manor she
could see from her window But, al
though she was beautiful and tender
hearted, the lord Tilted her, and she
fell into melancholy. She sat every
Gay by the window, whence she could
see the fckle lord of Castelnats
masor. One morning he passed by In
the valley below. She sang to him.
but he never looked up. "Plus d'Es-
poirn she cried and threw herself out
of the window on to the flags below.
where she was killed. The manor OF
Martial was known thenceforward as
the Castle of Despond. The fine build
ing was falling to ruins when NJ. Fe-
naille bought it, and he had it COM
pletely and skillfully restored before
making a gift of it to the nation.

ANSWERED THE
FINAL SUMMONS

In the death of James Shultz, which
occurred about II O'Clock Sunday
night, Danville loses an old and rep
resentative citizen, widely known
throughout Montour and adjoining
counties. The cause Of death was a
complication of diseases, which entail
ed great suffering on the deceased.
Had Mr.. Shultz survived until Nov
ember 18th he would have reached the
eightieth mile stone. At the time of
his demise he was aged 10 years, I
months and 1S days. He was widow.
er, his wife dying some two years ago
He is survived by five sons and two
daughters: Paul Shultz, of Franklin
township, Columbia county; Jacob
and Melvin, of Cooper township, this
county; Hervey, of South Danville and
Jesse who lives at home; Margaret
(Mrs. Hugh Quick of Rupert, and
Ella MRS. William Berninger) of Sun
bury. One brother-Daniel Shultz-
and one sister-Mrs. Amos Vastine-
of this city, also survive.
For many years the deceased occupi-
ed the homestead farm in Cooper town
ship. About twenty years ago he re-
moved to Danville and up to the time
Of his death lived retired at No. III
East Market street, where he was
stricken with his fatal illness.
Mr.. Shultz was formerly member
of the board of county commissioners.
While resident of Cooper township
he was repeatedly elected school direc-
tor and was prominent in grange af-
fairs. At the time of his death he was
president of the Farmers Mutual Fire
Insurance Company, He was an active
member of the Mahoning Presbyterian
church, and was a member of the ses-
sion.

FOUR ORDERS
REPRESENTED

The usual congregation at st. Paul's
Methodist Episcopal church Sunday
eve was augmented by the presence of
eighty members of the various patri-
otic orders of town, ,lwho had respond
ed to an invitation to be present on
the occasion to hear sermon by the
pastor, Rev. George S. Womer, on
A Patriot of 1910" Among the ord
ers represented were the Grand Army
of the Republic, Sons of Vete1a ans, the
Red Men and the Patriotic Order Sons
of America.
Mr.. Womer founded his sermon on
Acts 1886: "For David, after he had
served his own generation by the will
of God, fell on sleep and was laid un-
to his fathers" Following is brief
synopsis:
A brilliant Frenchman has said that
the age makes the man. In many
senses that is true. We share the pre-
judices, the customs and the thoughts
OF the age in which we live. But it is
also true that we may help to shape
our circumstances, to build up and
modify the age in which we live The
English served their generation by
wrestling from King John the Magma
Charta. Washington contended for the
equality of men. Lincoln and the
patriots of 1S6l-65 extended the prn-
ciple of liberty to the race of slaves
within our borders. 1t will not do for
us to rest upon past victories. The
questions of divorce, immigration, the
liquor question, the disregard of the
sacredness of human life, the mad rus h
for wealth, are questions thrust upon
the American citizen of today that our
fathers did not have to face and there
is no doubt bat that it is more difficult
to be patriot today than it was in
1776 or in 1861.
There are forces that are making for
Righteousness in our midst. The COM
mon schools have nineteen million
pupils. The church has increased
greatly in membership. The pure
American home makes for righteous
ness. The patriot of 1910 will throw
his life and influence on the side of all
things good. There must be no at
tempt to hedge. He must be clean cut
and clear
