Burger was arrested by Chlef-of- Worthy Purpose of Reading Iron Company. One of tho most beautiful promenades iu this section is the walk loading along tho north side of Montour Ridge nnd known as the "cycle path." The sceriio properties of the path have frequently boon described, but tho several vnutago points never afforded a more enchanting outlook than at this particular season of tho your.

It is to the credit of tho Reading Iron company that it is resorting to every expedient possible to keep tho placo clean and presentable and to prevent trespassing by objectionable parties, whose very presenco and practices would be sncli as to make the placo unfit for a stroll, especially if ladies accompanied the party. The last one to fall into the police dragnet for vicious practices indulged in along the cycle path was a bov sixteen years of age, who was arraigned before Justice Oglesby last night. A man earlier in the day went to jail for trespassing on the cycle path, but thn boy arrested last evening, owfng to his youth, got off a little easior.

CD Phones Bad Condition of Study Hall of High School Obstacle In Way of Repairs. August is the last month of the school viu-ation ami tho' repairs on'the publio school buildings, are being rushed in order that they may be in readiness for the opening of the school in the borough, which will take place on Tuesday, Spetember 2ml, the day following Lalior day. The most important of the repairs consists of painting, tho contract for which is held by V. W. Mottern.

Tho committee on repairs of the school board is in a quandary uncertain just how far it would be advisable to carry the work of renovation in the liiirh school, several rooms of which were probably never in a worse condition. Tho study hall of tho high school especially.needs painting and decorating very badly. The walls and tho ceiling both are beginning to scale off while at spots they are badly discolored. Tho walls were painted and decorated only a few years and tho blemishes they bear have been caused by leaks on the roof, which up to the present have not been exactly located, notwithstanding that expert workmen have been sent ou the building repeatedly to make the repairs noeded. It is because of this condition that tho building committee of the school board has hesitated to recommend that the room be painted.

In the science room and in the stock room adjoining the walls are being painted. The job is being done in a thoroughly artistic and workman-like manner; the colors are harmonious and agreeable to the eye, the effect on the whole being so pleasing that one cannot help but regret that the committee can not see its way clear to recommend that the study hall be gone over in the same manner. Entertained at Dinner. Work on the new sedimentation basin at the water works being built by the Pitt Construction is taking a big stride forward this week. The concrete floor is laid over considerably more than one-half of the basin, and the forms for the concrete sides are now being erected.

Yesterday thirteen men were on the job, which is an increase over the number of men previously employed. Unless unforeseen delay occurs, in 6 weeks' time the basin will be completed and put to a test. Beyond that point, however, there will be consid Mrs. Lucetta Murray, of Mausdale, entertained at dinner on Sunday in honor of her sister-in-law, Mrs. I.

Geisinger, who so very generously bore all the expenses of re-modeling and re-equip-ing the local young men's christian association, has very generously offered the muniflcient sum of ten thousand dollars toward a permanent endowment fund for the local young men's christian association on condition that the citizens of Danville will subscribe a like amount. The board of directors of the association therefore feel that it would be unfair both to Mrs. Geisinger and to the public spirited citizens of Danville if they were to allow this splendid offer go by unnoticed, or fail to make an honest attempt to secure the necessary amount of money to make good the condition upon which Mrs. Geisinger gives the first ten thousand that the rights of the owners of the on Are Losing money were: Mrs. Bailey and daughter Cath arine, of Philadelphia; Mr.

Addresses were made by Mayor Preston, Grand Worthy President William J. Brennen, of Pittsburgh; Theodore A.

Bell, of California, and Frank E. Hering, of Indiana. Many important matters of legislation are expected to be acted upon at this session, which will continue until Friday. An important question is that in reference to decreasing, the number of delegates in the Grand Aerie. was therefore decided that the local association should put on a campaign immediately to secure the additional ten thousand dollars, and it was further the consensus of ouinion that the local board should attempt to raise an additional five thousand to make twenty-five thousand dollars in all.

About two thousand dollars of the five added to the amount necessary to raise will be used in meeting the necessary regular current expenses for the balance of the year, or until the endowment fund Is paid in apd is yielding sufficient returns to meet the necessary regular current expenses.

The sedimentation at present Danville's Nemesis Here Today. Thus far in the North and West Branch league race Danville has lost but four games. Three of these defeats have been administered by Miffl-inburg, so it will be with a determination to win or bust that the locals trot out on the field this afternoon at 3 :30 to meet the carriage manufacturing town's club. The Mifflinburg team is one of the fastest amateur base ball aggregations in this section they play a keen, clean game. A contest well worth seeing is the strong prob tunity to make some contribution towards this endowment fund.

The captains who have agreed to have charge of the teams in the campaign are: E. M. Applebaugh, D. J. William G.

One of the advantages of the new and enlarged basin will be that the borough will always have a practically inexhaustible supply of water in which settling has already taken place to draw upon no matter what emergency may have to be met. In this way when the plant is taxed to its fullest capacity and the water is pumped into the mains as fast as the pumps can be operated a good and properly filtered supply of water may be relied upon. The settling tank at present is hardly a factor, and on all occasions when the demands are in the least extraordinary the water has to be used directly from the river a practice which gives us water without the least claim to purity and which, owing to the presence of driftwood and other trash in the water, is pretty sure to lead to engine trouble at times when delays ought not to occur.

The board of directors have approved of the plan suggested, which in brief is as follows: There will be ten teams composed of ten men each, a captain will be in charge of each team. The names of all the citizens have been carefully listed by Secretary F. A.

Messier and his associates and the plan is to give every man and woman interested in the best welfare of Danville's boys and young men an oppor- tables will be provided, each one of the ten teams having a separate table. E. J. Hockenbury, of Harrisburg, will outline the plan of campaign and addresses will be made by a number of prominent citizens. Every team worker is urged by the campaign manager to be at the supper tonight even though his attendance entails personal sacrifice.

crete work ever seen in this city. Several tons of steel rods will be required, and these are placed in every part of the bottom and the sides of the basin. The concrete has to be reinforced to enable it to withstand the natural pressure of such a large body of water and the additional pressure that it will be subjected to in winter when there may be more or less freezing in the basin. Among other improvements the present hypo plant will be replaced with a modern coagulating plant containing engine and pump of the directly connected type. The old settling tank will be thrown out of commission and eventually may be replaced with another filter tub, which will add to the efficiency of the plant.
