The country, however, dee; no
seem to view with alarm the far
more menacing "He I Peril " oi
Europe, which is leaving a •rrim
trail of murder and all sorts ol
other crime in its wake.
What two years ago was term
el "a wave of alien crime" has
n>w swelled to a tide that is ap
pilling to persons who study the
faiits underlying it. America,
Invond doubt, is at the present
m inient, to all intents and pur
p xes, the dumping ground of the

ropean life.
Indeed, the charge is deliber
ately made liy criminologists that
certain European countries are
actually forcing and assisting
t lousands of their worst criminals

every year.
A large proportion of crimes in
this country are committed, actual
show, l>y foreigners. The
proportion of alien crime to total
crime is much larger than the
proportion of aliens to the total
population. This is but another
proof of facts, known from num
erous sources to a certainty, that
thousands of ready-made criminals
are slipping in at the "open
iloor."

WILL ELECT
CO. SUPERINTENDENT
10XT Tuesday the school <li
rectors of the county those
of Danville excepted- will
meet in convention at the court
house to elect a county superin
tendent.
Three candidates have present
ed themselves and are endeavor
ing to make known their cclaims.
The contest has become i|uite
heated and the result is in ques
tion.
Messrs. (Jha,-. Oerrand W. 1).
Stein bach are putting forth their
strongjst eU'orts, while Mr. J.
Mi'es Deri-is ipiieily and gentle
manly working to please and rc
ceive the best vote attainable.
\\ liile it has become a matter
of Cfistum to give at least tine re
election, which in that ease would
mean Mr. Clms. Dcrr, the Intel
ligencer claims that the most
worthy and capable .should be
selected.
Prof. Diles Derr is a person
of manly fpialities and ability, lie
has belli no office in the county,
has been a very successful teacher
of the county for about fifteen
years, and is therefore qualified
in every respect to make a com
petent and wise superintendent of
instruction over our children.
We would therefore that
our school directors would make
no mistake bv giving him their
earnest support.
THE POLITICAL
POT NOW BOILS
/vy llli local political pot now
boils to overflowing, and
tine can scarcely rest satis
lied on any particular candidate,
as ho peruso-i the line of an
nouncements for County Commis
sioner, for new names are constant
ly appearing, and we are proud
to say that tliey are all represen
tative party men, and Montour
Democracy will do well by select
ing any two.
The familiar names of Miles,
Leigliow, Applenian and Cooper
just begins to echo along the tir-
ing line, when another—a young
er and just as worthy gentleman
--galliantl.v rushes to the very
front, urged on by his many and
influential friends.
In 1!)02. when the County De
mocracy was searching for a cap
able,, deserving person to repre
sent her at the State convention,
she found that peism in our
young friend, Mr. Clarence W.
Seidel, a born Democrat, of
Washingtonville, anil it is this
same young gallant that presents
bis name for your consideration.
Mr. Seidel is a very popular
man throughout the county, is a
property owner in the county,
ia i never before asked anything
eft' the c iiinty, and it ii therefore
I lie duty of the county to very
carefully consider his announce
ment.
" FARM ICR " CKEASV for gov
ernor, sounds well ; and his veiy
excellent record, as servant to the
State, bears him high in the esti
mation of all. Democracy would
do well to name him as her choice,
and the people would do better
by supporting him as our next
governor. tie is a man of care

AN OVERDRAFT.

Itocelvi'd l»y n Ituiilc.
"We often receive peculiar requests
for overdrafts," said a bunker the oth- 1
or day. "A client whose standing ac
count had never exceeded SI,OOO re
quested us to grant him an overdraft
of $4,000, stating that he was not able
to offer any explanation at the present,
but assured us that at no time would
the bank be in any danger of losing, as
flie overdraft would not be real.
"After some hesitancy we consented,
but stipulated certain conditions and
reserved the privilege of refusing if
these conditions were not followed.
"Shortly after his departure a well
dressed gentleman came in and handed
to our paying teller a check for $5,000
bearing the signature of our client and
with It a letter requesting us to honor
the check with cash. This letter was
one of the conditions we imposed for
our safety. Still feeling that we were
taking a chance, the money was passed
out to him. After holding the currency
a moment In his hands he returned It,
with a request for the check, which he
destroyed before us.
"On the following day our client
thanked us for our courtesy and walv- i
cd the overdraft privilege, saying that j
he had no further use for It. lie had
with him a elieck for $.",000, which he
(It ; ' -itctl. Tills he had won from his
friend on a bet. lie had bet that he
could negotiate an overdraft for that
amount without lirst explaining that
it was a bet and the nature of it, and
his friend wagered that no bank would
trust him for that amount."—Kansas

IRISH STORIES.
Some Droll \nMW«>rn and lt«»utly Wit
From Hotel Waiters.
of stories of Irish hospitality Mr.
Maeready had a full supply; also of
hotel attendants and the peasantry.
On one occasion he asked the girl in
attendance for poached eggs. She
looked a bit nonplused at llrst, but
after si little hesitation replied, "There
are no pouched eggs in the place, sir,
but I think 1 could get you some
poached salmon."
In a poor little cottage of two rooms
ho saw a married couple and seven
children. Hearing a baby cry, he
asked to see it and explained that he
took an interest in babies, having one
at home. The infant was produced
( for inspection, and the mother asked
proudly, "Is yours ns big as that,
sir?" To which he replied, "I think it
is a little bigger." Instantly the In
stincts c*i' the mother were roused,
and. to-sing iter head, she said: "So
well it might That's only half of
our;; the other half is with God. We
had twins."
At a hotel one of the party asked,
"Have you got any celery, waiter?"
"No. sir," was the significant answer.
"I relies on me chances." That man
deserved an extra tip. On another oc
casion the dinner was especially good
and we! 1 served. At the conclusion
one of the parly remarked, "You're an
i angel, Pat." "I am, sir," assented Pat,
"but I fly low."—London Telegraph.

GREAT GOD
PAN
By j
KEITH GORDON j
Titntuiui arrived at Cantlco at 1:30.
At 1' .Norton's silent, etfiiient serving
man was formally Introducing him to
the Hutch—his for ii month—a squat,
oriental looking building standing In
the tempered shade of the pines and
| urelies and containing all those touches
j of home comfort usually ascribed to
feminine hands, but found in the mod
ern bachelor quarters.
At 2:ofl. his tweed suit changed for a
' more informal costume, lie emerged
from the low, broad doorway, stirred
by a pagan desire to get closer still to
nature, out into the dim, cloisteral
places of the woods, where he might
float dellciously upon a sea of silence,
whose calm was unbroken save by the
ripple of a bird note or the snapping of
a twig.
"1 say, this is great!" burst from
his lips luxuriously as he drew In long
whiffs of the suave air with its warm,
elusive stent of sweet growing things.
"This is life. This is what man was
meant for."
As he ceased speaking he lifted his
face to the soft biveze that earessed
his cheek like a spirit hand and thought
unflattering things of civilization. What
after all did this boasted condition
mean'/ What but crowded cities with
stone where turf should be, the roar of
trains, shrieking of whistles, whizzing
of autos. cluttering of hoofs and the
grind, grind, grind of office life. As he
thought of tt now, looking as be was
straight Into nature's smiling, inscruta
ble face, it all seemed supremely ridic
ulous. Fauns and satyrs, hamadryads
and naiads had been wiser.
At the end of an hour's walk he
found that the path ended abruptly at
a grassy knoll. For a few moments
Trenhain gazed with an appreciation
too deep for words. Then, with a sigh
of contentment, he sank down upon the
thick grass and stretched himself out,
his head resting in the hollow of his
clasped bands, his eyes narrowed to
silts like gatekeepers who would say
to the beauties about them, "One at a
time, please."
And presently the slits became nar
rower and narrower.
"Spring," he murmured musingly, "is
just bursting into young summerliood."
Then his lips twitched slightly, and he
tried again.
"That apple tree looks like some
sweet, sedate Quaker lady."
He stretched his eyes open wide, as
if to fling oft some irresistible influ
ence.
"tJooil Lord, am I a poet after all?"
lie demanded comically of the shad
owy self that always attends ns, but
never so palpably as in solitudes. And
then he smiled and lay staring up into
the great arch of the blue above him.
Again the slits grew narrow, almost
imperceptible. A line from a poem
learned in youth trailed across his
mind. "(Irent I'an Is dead."
"It's a lie," he murmured drowsily.
"Great Pan is not dead. Great Pan" —
The murmur ended in a knowing
smile, the smile of one who lias learned
for a certainty what fools most mortals
be, and that in turn faded into gravity.
Trenluun slept.
"It's a regular sleeping beauty of a
place—has a breathless, charmed air,
as if it were under a spell. I believe
there are fairies or godilngs to be dis
covered."
So had Xatica Duke written to a
friend soon after coming to Cantlco
for the summer. There were few
houses in the region a half dozen
within twenty miles—and her llrst im
pression of the country was only deep
ened by her long, solitary strolls. She
had a mystical feeling that there was
something to be discovered—some se
cret that she was forever on the verge
of.
Godling, gnome or fairy, she fancied,
might rise In her path at any moment
without causing her any surprise, and
so it was without dismay that she
stopped short at the edge of the wood
one day upon finding her favorite spot
already occupied.
For the fraction of a second she half
believed. Then she wholly disbelieved.
No godiings would appear In tan ox
fords. Sandals were the utmost one
could concede! Still, as a mortal the
sleeping youth before her was worth

and she cautiously drew a step nearer.

of a tree shaded his face, his soft linen
hat tossed on the grass beside him, thus
revealing the thick dark hair that look
ed as If it might have curled had not
Its owner sternly refused to hear of \
such a thing. His features reminded
her strangely of certain marbles she
had seen, they were so massive, yet so
finished, and with girlish attention to
dress she bestowed an approving
glance on his white negligee shirt, the
sleeves rolled tip to the elbow, and the
duck trousers to match. If he was not
a god ling he was at least a most at
tractive mortal.
Daringly she stood and gazed at him,
tingling with the fear that he might
awaken, yet too interested to turn
away. The blue of her eyes was match
ed by the color of the linen gown she
wore. Around her neck a daniVellon
chain dangled like a cable of rich gold.
With a sudden movement she lifted
the hitter, breaking off a part of It and
fastening it into a wreath. Again she
hesitated. Then, with her underllp
held between her teeth In a way that
showed two very merry dimples, she
took a letter from her dress, hurrlwdly
extracted a tiny pencil from the envel
ope, scrawled something on an unused
sheet and tore It off.
Almost holding her breath, she tiptoed
nearer. lie was sleeping very heavily.
The scrap of paper she had twisted In
to the wreath. At last s»he stood with
in au arm's length of his head. She
listened excitedly, but the long, even
breaths reassured her.
Slowly she bent over; lower and low
er the wreath descended until It rested
on the crisp dark hair. With the brac
ed air of a person who feels that he Is
likely to be shot at any moment she
-Straightened up and waited, but he did
not move. Then, with a last utlmlring
glance, for he looked like a veritable
flower crowned god now, she fled back
along the path and in a moment had
disappeared in the woods.
Trenliam woke from a slumber so
deep that his very identity was lost.
Long, lazy shadows darkened the
sward about him. Who—what—where—
Something pressed upon his forehead,
and instinctively his hand went up, his
lingers groping eagerly for some mean
ing in the soft, damp mass that met
their touch. Then they closed upon the
object and brought It around where his
eyes could help.
lie stared at It In silence for a mo
ment.
"Crowned, by Jove!" was his dazed
exclamation when he at last found
speech. The scrap of paper caught his
eye, and he detached it, smoothed It
out and looked at It with absorbed cu
riosity.
"I salute thee, great Pan," was scrib
bled thereon in a girlish hand. And at
the words a light dawned upon him.
Who was she, and what was she like?
llow strange that she, too, should have
been thrilled with the same weird
sense of the nearness of pagan gods!
i The dandelions were curling up like
tired children, but Trenham carried
! the wreath home as carefully as If It
had been of the flowers of Eden, and
he smoked many pipes that night in
► the soft gloom of Norton's roomy porch,
i wondering how and when and where
they would meet and whether her eyes
» were blue or gray and whether she was
tall or short, dark or fair, his lady of
dreams.
Afterward he plumed himself upon
1 having recognized her Instantly, though
► if the truth were known It required no
I great perspicuity. Asked to dinner by
t the Stantons —the nearest neighbors,
though three miles away—he had ae
p. ceptcd on tho chance of getting some
clew to the young lady.
And he did. At the sight of him the
» only other guest, a young woman with
» the bluest of eyes, gave a startled but
i pleased look that flashed Into her eyes
■ and out again so quickly that he would
scarce have been sure save for the
slight flush that backed up his theory.
Later on It transpired that she was the
one girl In the neighborhood, and ma
trons. Trenhtnn shrewdly argued, would
scarcely be up to such pranks or even
thinking of the great god Pirn.
For the rest there are people who are
still scandalized when they remember
the queerness of the Trenham-Ftike
wedding. It took place In sylvan style
a year later on the knoll overlooking
the river, and the bride wore—can you
believe it?—a wreath of dandelions.

THE CGG DANCE.
A CurloiiN Banter Cnatom of Ancient
Fpunoe—A Iloyiil Romance.
lii very ancient times a most curious
Easter custom prevailed in France
Wooing: lads and lasses would come
forward as applicants for the "egg and
matrimonial dance." A hundred eggs
were arranged on a level sward spread
with sand, and all the young tenantry
selected their partners to dance on the
green among the eggs.
The story is told by an old chronicler
that Philibert, duke of Savoy, was out ,
hunting and, being in the neighborhood !
of the beautiful palace of Margaret of
Flanders, called to pay his respects to
her. All the tenantry were dancing on
the green, the eggs were laid, and the
lovers were treading a measure of the
national dance amid them. Few there
were who managed to dance through
without breaking some of the obstruc
tions. If they succeeded not even the
"nay" of the parents prevailed to break
uj> the match. It was an evidence of
the intentions of Providence to .smile
on the union.
While many had tried and been un
successful, the duke besought the prin
cess to try the dance with him. Though
it was the first time they had met, she
agreed, and they executed the national
dance without breaking an egg. They
were greeted with enthusiastic cheers,
and, as it was a sure sign that they
were affianced by divine will and their
wedded life would be one of great
bliss, they bowed to the fates that or
dained it so, and in the sentiment of
the romance they were "married and
lived happily ever after."—Philadelphia
Press.

Periodic
Pains.
Dr. Miles' Anti-Tain Pills
are a most remarkable remedy
for the relief of periodic pains,
backache, nervous or sick head
ache, or any of the distress
ing aches and pains that cause
women so much suffering.
As pain is weakening, and
leaves the system in an ex
hausted condition, it is wrong
to suffer a moment longer than
necessary, and you should take
the Anti-Pain Pills on first in
dication of an attack.
If taken as directed you may
have entire confidence in their
effectiveness, as well as in the
fact that they will leave no dis
agreeable after-effects.
They contain no morphine,
opium, chloral, cocaine or other
dangerous drugs.
"For a long time I have suffered
greatly with spoils of backache, that
seem almost more than I can endure.
These attneks come on every month,
nnd last two or three days. I have
never been able to get anything that
would give mo much relief until I be
began the use of Dr. Allies' Anti-Pain
Fife, and they always relievo me in a
short time. My sister, who suffers
the same way. has used them with
the same results." MRS. PARK.
