MONTOUR AMERICAN FRANK C. ANGLE. Proprietor. Danville, Pa., April 2.?. 1903. CALL FOR STATE CONVENTION TO THE REPUBLICAN ELECTORS OF PENNSYLVANIA 1 am directed by the Republican State Committee to announce that the Republicans of Pennsylvania, by their duly chosen Representatives, will meet in convention at the Opera Honse, in the city of Harrisburg, on Wednesday, May 27th, 1903 at 10.30 o'clock A. M , for the purpose of nominating candi dates for the followiug offices, to wit One person for the office of State Treasurer. One person for the office of Auditor General Two persons for the office of Judge of the Superior Court. In accordance with the rules govern ing the organization, the representation in the State Convention will be based on the vote polled at the last Presidential election. Under the rnles each legisla tive district is entitled t J one delegate for every two thousand votes cast for the Presidential Electors in 1900, and an additional delegate for every fraction of two thousand votes polled in excess of one thousand. By order of the Republican State Committee M. S. QUAY, Chairman. W R ANDREWS. Secretary. An exchange places the dehorning of cattle in the same category of cruel ty, as the docking of the tail of a horse The tail is the horse's weapon of defence aßaiust the fly, oue of the worst torments with which the animal is afflicted. The horn was the weapon of defence cattle had against wild beasts, before they had the care and protection now given by mau. The horn no longer serves a useful pur pose, but on a vicious animal is dan gerous to the enclosed herd,as well as to the farmer or milkmaid. The claim u, that when the horn is forming, it may be easily rubbed off, and pre vented from attaining a size that will call for the saw or clippers. Whether the operation of dehorning or docking the tail is painful to the animal or not, we claim the greatest and lasting cruelty in docking a horse's tail, i-- that it deprtves the animal of a means of ridding himself of his worst em eu ies and pests. The factory girls of Chester are not exhibiting the good sense nsually shown by young women who work for a liviug On the contrary, they are contributing much to the reputation of their sex for foolish pride in refus ing to obey a very sensible ord jf one of the Deputy Factory Inspectors. Innpector Fullerton, observing the many accidents resulting from the long hair ot operatives catching in the machinery, issued an order that hereafter all of the factory girls in his district would have to wear their hair piled upon the top of the head instead of swinging loose about the shoulder or in plats down the back. With Mr. Fullerton it was simply a measure for the protection of the girls and he probably never imagined that any of them would fail to see the wisdom of the precaution. But the ob jections came very promptly from many of the girls, who in effect say that they woold rather run the ri-k of death or injury from machinery than to wear their hair in any style except that most becoming to their beauty. The point of view of these girls is incomprehensible. Mr. Fullertou will probably be helpless if they should continue to object to his order, unless be is backed up by the management of the factories. If they persist in their devotion to thedaugerouscoiffure Mr. Follerton may not be able to enforce bis order, relying simplv upon (lis official powers, but it is more than probable that owners of mills will be glad to render him all the assistance in their power. But it skeins a pity tiiat these girls should be so short •ighted as to make any such measures necessary. May Turn State Evidence. NEW YORK, April 22 —The thii teen Italians, alleged members of the Mafia, who are being held on charges in connection with the murder of Benedetto Madonia, whose body was fonnd In a barrel at Eleventh .Street and Avenue D., on the morning of April 13, were arraigned before Magis trate Barlow in the Centre Street police court this morning. Salvitore Saglibinia, the murdered mm's -t. | - ■on, who positively identified the body as that of his step-father, Ben detto Madonia, was present. The Italians were represented by for mer District Attorney L, E. Barbier, while Assistant District Attorney Garvin conducted the case for the peo ple. Morello, who is supposed to be the leader of the gang, was called by Garvin. The assistant district at torney moved that Morello he dis chargd on the charge of murd»r, which was done. Morello, however, wa~ im mediately served with a subpoena as n witness. It was explained to him that he would have to tell all he knew against his companions. This pro cedure was gone through as if i thougbt that Morello knows more about the workings of the band than anv of the others. Born. To Rev. and Mrs. J. F.

The Ollie Halford Stock Co , will take possession of the stage at the Danville Opera House for three nights opening tonight, with the comedy drama in five acts entitled "Wicked London." The lirst scenes of the play are laid in Liverpool at the home of David Burton, a wealthy merchant who is giving a party in honor of his daughter Marion. She is in love with Richard Carlton, her father's book keeper. On hearing of this her father drives her from home, after which she marries Richard and they goto Lon don. They are followed by Leonard Varney an adventurer who had wished to marry Marion. He involves Rich ard iu a series of crimes for which he is sent to Portland prison. Richard escapes however and returns just iu time to save his wife from the wrath of Varney when she refused to secure a divorce from her husband and marry him. He is finally cleared and the crimes traced to Leonard Varney who committed them. There will be a Sat urday matinee. The usual 15 cent ladies' ticket lias been issued for to night. "The Tide of Life," the powerful melodrama which will be at the Opera House on Saturday evening, May 2. W!i> one of the theatrical sensations of New York last season. It has all the elements that make a play popular. There are some of the most startling climaxes ever put on a stage,all grow ing naturally out of the plot, and drawing forth timpestsof applause by their original nature. Imagine a man leaping from a second story window, and grasping a live electric wire in his flight. Think what would happen to him. You see this incident iu "The Tide of Life," and as the man who is a villain, of course hangs to tin wire, high above the stage, the vivid lightning flashes and ominous crackling of electricity, envelops him, and he is the centre of a hurly-burly of terrible blue flame. Edward Weitzrl, the manager ot the play, ■•pent a great deal of time, ingenuity and money to perfect this climax, and lie may congratulate himself on show ing his patrons something that thev have never seen before. The situatiou is a tremendous one. Another climax is where a young girl jumps from a high bank upon the top of a fast-mov ing freight train, so that she may reach a certain place in time to pre vent a murder. The scenery is new, and the machinery and dynamos for the electrical effects are all carried by the company. The story of"The Tide of Life" is simply fascinating. How's This.

T' GRADUATE OPTICIAN. ECCLESIASTICS IN CONVENTION WASHINGTON. April 22.—One of the largest and most important assem blages of Catholic ecclesiastics ever gathered in this country, met here to day, to continue in session tomorrow and Friday. The occasion is the an nual meeting of the hierarchy of the United States, postponed from last October, iu order that it might be held iu connection with the meeting of the trustees of the Catholic univer sity. Cardinal Gibbons naturally is) the central figure. As chancellor of the university he presided at 10o'clock this morning at the formal installa tion of Mgr. Dennis O'Connell, the new rector of the institution, \ ice Bishop Conaty.who has been appoint ed to the vacant see of Los Angeles, Cal. The retiring rector made an ad dress of welcome to Mgr. O'Connell, who was then presented to the faculty and others present by Cardinal Gib bous. In accepting the trust, Mgr. O'Conell outlined the scope of the work of the university as especially laid down for him by Pope Leo. There were no public exercises in connec tion with this event. The board of trustees of the univ ersity remained in session nearly all day. thero being present practically all of the archbishops of the country, besides the other members of the board. It is understood that the beard is considering the filling of several va cancies in its membership,the appoint ment °f a vice-rector for the univer sity, and the plans prepared by Pope Leo for the future conduct of the in stitution. Tomorrow the corner-stone of the new Apostolic Mission house will be laid by Cardinal Gibbons. This house is to be one of the adjunct buildings of the university and will be used as a training college for priests to fit themselves for mission work among Protestants in this country. Archbishops Kcane, of Dubuque, will deliver the sermon on the oc casion. The building will be under the direction of the Paulist Fathers. Very Rev. Walter Elliot, C. S. 1' , will be the president of the house. The coruer stone of the House for the Studies of Dominical will also be laid tomorrow by Cardinal Gibbons. This building will be located on the ground adjoining the university grounds, and will cost about $240,000. There will be present for these ex ercises a large number of ecclesiastic al students, from Baltimore and vic inity, besides members of the student body and alumni of the Catholic un iversity, of Washington. SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP. Cured by One Bottle of Chamberlain's Couch Remedy. When I had an attack of grip last winter (the second one) I actually cured myself with one bottle of Cham berlain's Cough Remedy," says Frank W. Perry, Editor of the Enterprise, Shortsville, N. Y. "This is the honest truth. lat all times kept from cough ing myself to pieces by taking a tea spoouful of this remedy and when the coughing spell would come on at night I would take a dose and it seemed that in the briefest interval the cough would pass off and I would goto sleep perfectly free from cough and its accompanying pains. To say that the remedy acted as a most agreeable surprise is putting it very mildly. I iiad no idea that it would or could knock out the grip, simply because I had never tried it for such a purpose, but it did, and it seemed with the second attack of coughing the remedy caused it to not only be of less dura tion, but the pains were far less se vere, and I had not used the contents of one bottle before Mr. Grip had bid me adieu.

Mr. Editor: The present Council being composed of representative busi ness men, it would seem that the j time has arrived to take up aud con sider several matters which have en gaged tlie attention of the public for some time and which demand prompt and decisive action on the part of its legislative body. In the order of their I importance, the writer of this article offers a few practical suggestions. FIRST AS TO SEWERAGE. To lay a line of 15 inch fireclay pipe from tho P. L. Brewery, along the level of Blizzard's Run and Sechler's Run to Church street,thence following the course of Mahoning creek lay a 24 lor 30 inch pipe to the mouth of this I stream. The cost of construction, at i present prices would be (24 inch pipe) | #13,750. SECOND AS TO GRADES. To make a careful survey of the town, and revi.-e and improve tho grades of pavements wherever advisjj able. The cost of survey would be about SSOO. THIRD AS TO ROADWAYS. To improve the Main Street of the J borough, by lowering the abutments )of the bridge over the canal to a pro j per grade,replacing the present bridge and constructing a vitrified brick roadway from Front to Bloom street, 30 feet in width, which would permit the pavements on either side to i have a width of 12 feet. The cost of j this improvement <one-half to be paid jby property owners) would he to the j borough §8,950. To overcome objec tions raised that this improvement should not be made until a sewer sys tem was built, an 18 inch pipe could | be laid connecting with the main sew er at a cost of $1,725. The above mentioned betterments are certainly needed and while expen | sive, yet by Council appropriating 118,000 per annum for a period of 3 (years, tho proposed improvements | would be realized and the town's 1 est j interests greatlv advanced. j • X. v. z. Danger ot Colds and Grip. The greatest danger from cold and griy is thare resulting in pneumonia. If n asonable care is used, however and | Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken,all 1 danger will be avoided. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy for these diseases we have vet to learn of a single case having resulted |in pneumonia,which shows conclusively I that it is a certain preventive of that | dangerous disease. It will cure a cold or an attack of the grip in less time I than any other other treatment. It is j pleasant and safe to take. For sale by i Panles & Co. Tito Crescents of this city will play the first game of base ball of the sea son on Saturday afternoon with the strong nine of the Gatawissa High school ou the grounds of the River side public school. The Crescents had a record last year of 22 games won and 1 lost. Admission will be lOcents. Following is the line-up: Robinson, catcher; Barber, pitcher; Geasey, first base; Lawrence, second base; Evans, third base; Bid), short stop; Mou tapue, left field ; Murphy,center field ; Welliver and Chapman, right field. Exposure to a sudden climattc change produces cold in the head and catarrh is apt to follow. Provided with Ely's Crean Balm yon are are armed against Nasal Catarrh. Price 50 cents at Drug gist or Fly Brothers, 56 Warren Street New York, will mail it. The Balm cures without pain, does not irritate or cause sneezing.

WILL HAVE RIFLES FOR ENCAMPMENT WASHINGTON, April 22 lnspe ction of the National Guard of Penn sylvania will be made in May and it is probable that before the aunnal en campment thiH year the entire guard will be equipped with Krag-Jorgensen rifles and the same accoutrements as the United States regular army This will bo done under the provisions of' the militia bill passed at the last con gress, which makes the National Guard of the various states practically part of the standing army and under the supervision of the war depart ment. In order that the department may avail itself of the appropriation ' made by congress for the purpose of putting into effect the militia bill, the troops of all the states must be in spected by regular army officers before June 1. Adjutant General Stewart, of Pennsylvania, requested of the war department that the Pennsylvania guard be not inspected until the an nual encampment in July. He stated that the annual inspection by the state officers had just been held, and that the guard could not now make as good a showing as it could when it went into camp. But these reasons did not seem sufficient for the department to postpone the inspection aud General Stewart was notified accordingly. "A Royal Train, Believe Me." Henry VIII When Shakespeare wrote of Royal Trains, such royal magnificence in traveling accommodations as now ex ist were not even dreamed of A middle-aged traveler of modern times, who has for a life-time been used to fairly well equipped railroad service, is himself surprised when he boards one of the Reading System's hourly trains running between Phila delphia and New York,and in describ ing the equipment is very likely to quote Shakespeare's phrase," A Royal Train, Believe Me." This also applies in numerous other points besides equipment, as for in stance, the trains between Reading Terminal, Philadelphia, and Liberty Street, New York, leaving each Ter minal weekdays, every hour from 7 a. m.to 7 p. m.in their rapid flight to the other Terminal, drawn by pow erful, fast locomotives burning hard coal, thus eliminating all smote and cinders, and running over a smooth track on a well ballasted, dlistless roadbed, are the very semblance of a Royal Progress. Another way : These trains leaving the Terminal "Every Time the Clock Strikes" pursue their swift course to destination without stop or hindrance the local trains being arranged to al low them a clear track, the same as in monarchical countries, the ordi nary citizen stands aside from the Royal pathway. When next you visit New York,take one of these trains leaving Reading Terminal, Philadelphia, "Every Time the Clock Strikes" and yoa will no tice many reasons why you should say "A Royal Train, Believe Me." Five Days in Jail. Henry Magi 11 was arraigned before Justice Oglesby last night charged with disorderly conduct. Iu default of fine he was sentenced to undergo an imprisonment of five days in the coun ty jail. Magill was charged with participating in the fight which took place along the P. &.

FARHERS STILL SOWING OATS Notwithstanding the phenomenally early season, farm work this spring is not much farther advanced than last I year. At present only a few farmers have finished sowing oats. This would seem odd considering that many fields of corn stuhble were ploughed in March Farmers, however, are close observers ! and experience covering many years has taught them that thure is nothing Ito be gained by putting seed into the ground too eaily. There were few ; but douhted that the unseasonable weather of March would be follow* d by a cold and perhaps wet April, so 1 that although they made the mo-t of the fine weather while it lasted they {studiously delayed planting The wisdom of theii course com mends itself in view of the kind of weather we are having at present, | which is unfavorable for the sprouting |of seed in the ground. A well-known farmer, who was in this city yester ; day, stated that corn planting this year will not be a bit earlier than i other seasons, while as u-ual a good ! deal of oats will be sown in May.
