Danville has made a decidedly shaky get away in the second series by loosing the two opening games. But saturday s drop had Louo of the monstrous features of fridays Avalanche. The score of 3 to 2 in favor of Shickshinny would show that it was a game Well Worth seeing no matter which team won. The game furnished plenty of fodder for the fans. It was doped out saturday night that there was no less than fourteen Points during the game where Danville could have Wou by doing just a Little different than they did. Certain it was that Fortune showered her attentions upon Shick Shiung during the Whol Niue innings and smiled in Danville a direction very infrequently. Danville had the game won almost As Many times As there were innings. Men of first second and third seemed easy to accomplish but to shove one Brown Clad runner across the except in the one innings was beyond the prowess of the cunning of the local tossers. Can you imagine three hits and a wild Pitili in one innings without a score Well that was Danville a sixth. That was the most striking bit but other innings furnished blows almost As disquieting.

With Umlauf up and two strikes called Mackert tried to steal Homo and was called out at the plate. Shickshinny had extra men at bar in but three innings. In the second and third singles from the bats of Cawley and Mccabe went for naught when the runners were nailed by Kelly a whip As they tried to Purlin second. After that by the More stealing was attempted of the Danville Catcher. In the third shinny took advantage of Danville a Only bad session to score two runs with Williams gone by the strike out route Evans shoved a Texas leaguer into Centre Field Ami advanced to third on Gouldner a two Bagger into Center.

Before the improvement can go Forward however the Borough Council will have to take similar action and decide to extend the retaining Wall at the water works eastward so As to embrace a fourteen foot plot belonging to the Borough which adjoins the inter county tract. At a meeting the county commissioners saturday took preliminary action in the matter. Following next saturdays meeting they will advertise for bids. During the present week the commissioners will take measurements and secure what other data May be necessary. Allowing for advertising etc., bids can not be received until september 3rd. The commissioners Are aware that the county a expenditures for the present year Are already considerable but they explain that they do not see How they can postpone the building of the retaining Wall any longer. For years past each grand jury has recommended the building of the Wall and an opinion from the president judge stares that should an Accident occur at the spot the county would unquestionably be liable for damages. The Declivity at the foot of the principal Street in the town is As unsightly As it is Dang Erous. The commissioners do not de 1 sire to pose As holding no a needed a improvement and they have come to the conclusion that the Wall should be built and the spot filled up immediately no matter at what Cost. The spirit shown is a most commendable one and now that such a flue Opportunity presents itself to secure an improvement badly needed in the Borough it is not probable that Council will do anything to discourage or delay the work hut will at once cooperate with the commissioners Aud prepare to build the boroughs share of the retaining Wall.

Whooping cough is abnormally prevalent in Danville Aud Vicinity and is causing some concern among the health authorities. While prevalent enough in the Borough of Danville in Mahoning township if not throughout the Rural districts generally it is gaining such a foothold and is spreading so rapidly that it is a grave question whether it will not interfere with the opening of the schools next month. A is thoroughly familiar with conditions states that there Are comparatively few families that have children that Are not infected with the disease unless rendered immune by previous attacks. In Mahoning township within a narrow radius Are eighteen cases of whooping cough several of them being of a serious Type. Whooping cough the same physician states owes its spread in great measure to indifference caused by the general Aud erroneous impression that it is a comparatively harmless disease one which every child is unavoidably heir to. Tho truth of the matter is that not Only is whooping cough avoidable but it is a dangerous disease. Statistics show that during Tho Mouth of May last in Pennsylvania eighty six deaths occurred from whooping cough. Noue of these deaths resulted from complications that Are so Apt to ensue in cases of whooping cough but occurred during the attack proper Aud were due to exhaustion Haemorrhage amp a. Tho remedy lies principally in placarding the houses leaving it to the Good judgment of Tho people to restrict Intercourse with the infected families. As soon As a new Case is discovered the House is ordered quarantined. The rules relating to Tho placarding of houses Are not Tho same in boroughs and townships. Tho former Are under the control of local boards of health which do not cause a dwelling to be placarded unless a Case of communicable disease is reported there by the attending physician. The townships Are under t lie con Tro f the division a Tif medical suspect to in the event of an outbreak of any Jet the medical inspector is sent to discover the nature of the ailment. If communicable disease exists the House is placarded whether there is an attending physician or not. In Tho Borough a few cases have occurred where physicians were not employed and thus the families infected a escaped the modified quarantine. This has caused considerable dissatisfaction among those residing outside the Borough not familiar with Tho Law who were obliged to submit to quarantine whether employing a physician or not. The authorities it of Plain that As a Rule there is too respect for sanitary la is Aud to it a the healt i officer who is charged with their enforcement. In some instances eve o i i placards placed i n infected building have been surreptitiously removed the penalty if would seem is in a enough to deter persons from an a thing so rash. For removing placard a penalty of from $10 to $100 Tine i provided along with 1 to3 Mouths imprisonment or both at the discretion of the the allusion to the holding of an a old Home week a made in these columns tuesday Uio Ruig has aroused a Good Deal of interest. The subject has been pretty generally discussed about town and the fact has been made apparent that the idea is by no Means unpopular.

There Are probably Fow other places of the same size to which so Many people scattered Over the length and bread Ali of the Laud Are bound by the ties of Friendship of blood and of duty and the very names of which when spoken awaken More tender emotions. This in part is due to the fact that Danville is an old town that it has a history that industrially. Politically in All its various relations it has always been a Factor that contributed in no Small degree to the general Prosperity and permanency of the Commonwealth. It was in Danville that men attained full stature. Skilled Aud disciplined they left the town to win wealth in undeveloped Fields.
