Montour American FRANK C. ANGLE, Proprietor. Danville, Pa., Apr. 30, DH>». EXCURSIONIST CAMETO CHIEF Among the hundreds of excursionists who weniloil tlieir way to Shamobiu j on Tuesday to attend the great coil- j vention of Odd Fellows, there- was at j least one whose desire to see tiie gatli- j erint; was greater than his means to pay his way, with the result that he j spent the night in the lockup at Sun- j bury and will spend the next twenty days in the Northumberlaud county ! prison. Fred Stutzman is a resident of Wil liamsport, and his chief occupation consists in dodging work and in visit ing all great functions in the viciuity that may be graced by his presence. He has a bad reputation auioug police circles, and enjoys the distinction of j being the laziest man in that town. When the large excursion train left j Williarnsport for Shamokin. he went ; with it, arriving safely [after tnanag- 1 iug to elude the trainmen. After spend- j iug au enjoyable day at the conven- | tion he started to return with the | train, beating his way by riding blind baggage. At Heed's station he came to grief and was captured by Special Officer J. C. White. He was taken to Sunbnry aud lodged in the lockup where he spent the night. Yesterday morning he was taken before Justice of the Peace Siiipniau, where he was given a hearing, after which he was j seut to prison for twenty days. Notice in Divorce. Maud M.

TRUANT OFFICER CAUSES ARREST As the end of the school term ap proaches and the lure of the pleasant spring weather is felt among the pu pils the truant officer's troubles begin to multiply. W. E. Young, attendance officer of the Danville public schools, yesterday caused the arrest of one of the patrons of the second ward school, whose daughter failed to attend ttie required '75 per cent, of the time belonged. The officer states that he will be obliged to proceed in like manner in several •other cases, if the parents do not turn over a new leaf and require their chil dren to he present in school the re quired percentage of time. Yesterday was the first arrest for neglecting to send children to school that has occur red in this city for some months. The truant officer states that those cases where the pupils are out of school with the parents' knowledge aud consent give him a great deal more trouble than tlie cases of mere truancy—where the pupil remains ont of school without leave. The officer, therefore., is giviug his attention to the derelict parents at present. Do You Open Your Mouth Like a young Mrd and gulp down what ever food or medicine may be offered you 1 Or, do you want to know something of the composition and character of that which you take into your stomach whether as food or medicine ?

PENNSYLVANIA RAIL ROAD BULLETIN THE FORTY BEACHES OF NEW JERSEY. The one hundred and twenty-five odd miles along the New- Jersey coast line from Long Branch to Cape May presents the greatest pleasuring section in the United States. Upon tlit- bluffs of the northern end and the gently shelv ing sands of the southern end are located forty resorts which • • entertain during the spring and summer seasons millions ot pleasure seekers. At no time in the year is this section more delightful than during the spring and early summer months. One who has not seen them at this season would marvel at their delights. The great pine belt, which extends through the center of New Jersey, fills the air with life-giving ozone, which combined with the salty tang of the sea and the open air exercise pos sible at all times, is exhilarating and tonic to the highest de-. gree. Long Branch, with its beautiful cottage-neighbors, West End, Hollywood, and Elberon; Deal and Allenhurst, largely devoted to cottage life; Asbury Park and Ocean Grove, attract ing thousands yearly; Avon, Belmar, Como, Spring Lake, and Sea Girt, are a galaxy of attractive places upon the blufls where "the country meets the sea." Then the Barnegat Bay section, where Point Pleasant, Sea Side Park, Island Heights, Barnegat City, and Beach Haven, with other smaller places nearby, welcome the summer so journer. Atlantic City, with its seven miles of beach and drives, and its charming suburbs, leads the island resorts, separated from the main land by the great salt marshes. Ocean City, Sea Isle City. Avalon, and Stone Harbor; Anglesea, Wildwood, Holly Beach, and Wildwood Crest also have a large summer population. And Cape May, with its new million dollar hotel and its wonderful improvements makes a fitting climax and holds a high place among the forty beaches. The Pennsylvania Railroad is the direct route to all of these resorts from all sections of the country. Its splendid train service makes each of them neighbor to all the rest and to the world at large. TO SUCCEED i FATHER O'REILLY i The Rev. Father Arthur J. McCann ! of Locust Gip has been removed to j Danville to (ill the vacancy in St. Jos- j ieph's Catholic church caused by the | death of the Rev. M. I. O'Rielly. Announcement as above was made 'by the Rev. Father McCann at the morning service of St. Joseph's Oath- j olio church at Locust Gap ou Sunday, j He explained that he had received word from Bishop Shanahan announc- ; iug his removal to Danville, i Father MoCann is a hardworking j conscientious priest and during his j pastorate at St. Joseph's church he endeared himself to the people of Locust Gap. The announcement of | his removal Sunday caused profound sorrow among his parishioners and, after hearing his farewell address, ma~y persons left the church with tear-stained faces. Iu this city Tuesday nothing de fi -ite concerning Father McCauu's ap- J pointment was known. Among the , members of St. Joseph's Catholic j church it was well understood that ] there was to be a general transfer of pastors in the diocese, that in line j with the changes Father McCann was | to leave Locust Gap; but beyond the latter's own announcement there was no official information that he was j coming to Danville. Today the congregation expects to be fully informed. Father McCauu's ! 1 appointment as a successor of the late : Father O'Reilly was confidently ex- j ! pected by a good many members of j the congregation here. CANAL SHOULD BE DRAINED It is much to be deplored that there are such poor prospects of getting rid of the canal nuisance this year. From present indications the old ; | ditch is going to do its very worst this | summer. The accumulation of foul and noxious matter iu the bottom lias been increasing during the half a doz en years or so that have elapsed since j the water has been withdrawn. The bottom was never more offen ! sive, even during the hot and sultry ■ weather of August, than it is just at present, especially during night time, i No one can pass the Mill street culvert j uuder certain conditions of the atmos !: phe r e without feeling the nauseating | effeot of exhalations from the foul aud '! disease breeding canal. ! I As explained in these columns re- I oently the disposition cf the canal bed 1 j will depend wholly on what is done ' | with the sewage at the hospital for ' [ the insane. That there are no pro ! spects of bringing the latter down the ! canal and connecting with the bor | ough sewer is tacitly acknowledged by even the warmest advocates of that : measure. The best that can he hoped j is that the canal, later on may be pip |ed for the purpose of bringing down the effluent flowing out from the filter beds, should that method of sewage disposal be employed. All this of course is in the future. Something should be done forthwith to relieve conditions,especially on the square between Mil) aud Ferry streets as well as on the lower side of the Mill street cnlbert. A good ditch open j ed iu the middle of the canal would ! lead off the water when it rains and at the same time drain the bottom, preventing putrefaction and the pois onous exhalations that resnlt. i It is hoped that the authorities will j take the matter up and devise some ! meaus that will bring at least tempor- j I ary relief.

PART OF IIS BRAIN OOZED 00T A most remarkable case is that of John Dietrich, the employe of David Foust, ou the Baldy farm in Lime stone township, who was injured Sun day evening when a horße stepped on his head. When Dietrich was found he was ly ing between the animal's front legs and Mie manger and waß unconscious Later when the physicians arrived it was discovered that the whole right side of his head had been crushed and the brain substance was oozing ont. It was the wonder of the doctors that the man was still living,and they gave out but slight hope that he would survive throughout the night. Yester day morning, however, he seemed to have rallied somewhat and even ap peared to understand questions that were addressed to him aud would mum ble a reply. It was decided Monday morning to remove the man to the Williamsport hospital. Monday afternoon, at that institution, an operation was perform ed and several pieces of bone were re moved. Word from the hospital Monday eve was to the effect that while Dietrich's condition was very slightly improved, they would extend no hopes for his recovery. They said it was a problem with the hospital physicians how he has survived the injury at all, as some of the brain substance had been lost and the brain itself was injured. The theory of the accident now is that Dietrich was climbing over the manger when he fell in front of the horse, frightening the animal, which stepped on his head before he could arise. One heel of the shoe took effect at the right cheek bone, the other back of the ear and the toe of the shoe came over the ear. The horse weighs about 1400 pounds.

F. Beck, in an address before tho State educational commission, which met at Altoona for the first time last week, opening a three days' session. "The school term proper should cease on May 1," he added, and the month of May be spent on farms own ed by the school districts, where the children should be giveu a practical education along argicultural lines and where they could study nature at first hand." Many in the meeting agreed with the doctor. The commission was appointed by Governor Stuart for the purpose of ob taining suggestions from educators and others and to recommend to the next legislature beneficial changes in the school laws. The board is composed of N. C Schaeffer,State superintendent of pub lic instruction, president; G. M. Phil lips, West Chester, secretary; M. G. Brumbaugh, superintendent of the Philadelphia schools; James Coughlin, Wilkes-Barre ; William Lauder. Rld dlesburg ; John S. Killing, Erie; David B. Oliver, Pittsburg. Colonel A. S. Stayer, surgeon gen eral in the National Guard, advised a radical change in the vaccination laws. He said that vaccination ought to be made compulsory on everybody lor there should be no vaccination at all, save iu cases of epidemic. Superintendent H. J. Whiteman op i posed a uniform course of study, claiming it bills the spirit of educa j tion, but ho recommended uniform j permanent certificates to be issued by the State. He asked that cities be per mitted to tlx their own qualifications I and issue their own certificates. Death to Flies, Now the Slogan. "Death to flies" is the slogan of boards of health in many of the larger cities aud States. In many places com mittees are now at work and it is hoped that by taking vigorous preven tive measures early in the season that the heavy mortality from typhoid and other intestinal diseases due to the ! filth devouring, germ carrying habits of the fly may be materially diminish ed. In New York City alone the ex ; perts of the Merchants' association | charge 7,650 deaths from these diseases ; to the common house fly, ' From now on the energies of this 1 association's committee will be direct ;ed to the correction of conditions ! which make it possible for flies to j multiply. Its inspectors regular and volunteer, will report before the hot I weather sets in all the hiding places of filth which are favorable to the I breeding flies. "Of course, the danger to health is greatest," says Edward Hatch, Jr., a member of the New York merchants' ! association, "in all parts of the city where sanitary precautions are most neglected. But even if you live in a ; comparatively well cared for part of town,'don't receive the fly into your I home as a harmless visitor,for he may come in a carriage or on horseback 1 from the filthiest part of the river front. All places in which filth may accumulate and flies breed should be carefully cleansed now and kept clean. Large sums of money are spent every year on screens, fly traps, fly poison aud fly paper, most of which would really be better spent ou labor to keep streets, stables and houses clean and on simple disinfectants where absolute cleanliness is impossible."
