MONTOUR AMERICANI FRANK C. ANGLE. Proprietor. Danville, Pa., Nov. 10, 1904. PARADE HAD DESIRED EFFECT The parade of the Shamokin Fire Department on Monday evening, with a view of enthusiug interest iu the movement to increase the fire loan to 145,000, with which to erect two new hobe houses, add a hook and ladder truck, and otherwise thoroughly equip the fire stations, proved to be one of the most interest iug and novel features the people of Shamokiu have witness ed in many years. 'lt had the desired effect as it carried by a majority of about 300. Tbe entire fire department, number ing over six hundred men in full uni form, paraded the principal streets, marching to the music of five bands. The streets all along the route of parade were thronged witli people, who cheered the gallant fire fighters as they marched in open order. Fire works of every description lighted up the streets and enthusiasm ran high. A notable feature of the oc casion was that there was no rowdyism and not a drunken man was in line. Numerous banners bearing inscrip tions setting forth the benetfis to be derived from a better equipment,were iu line. They were to the point and carried conviction to the minds of all who read them. The firo department to a man knows the need of better equipment for fighting fire and by the interest they have taken in this move ment, have proven themselves enter prising citizens. Action fleets Approval. The comment of citizens on all sides on the action Council took Friday night on the awning question is very favorable. It seems to be the general wish of the public that the Mill street merchants will follow the example of the city authorities and promptly re move the dingy wooden awnings that obstruct the walks and darken the stores. A few merchants who do not seem inolined to remove their awnings say the son light ruins the goods in their windows, causing anything of color to fade. This slight drawback easily can be overcome by cauvas awnings,which can be raised, when not needed to shut off the sun's glare, aud thus lighten the stores instead of keeping them al ways dark The cost of such awnings is not great and would be fully met by the improvement they would make to the stores and to the street. On Satorday the City Hall awning was torn down. The appearance of the building is improved and that in no small measure. The street appears mooh wider at the points where the awnings so far have been removed. THE CAR OF LIGHT POLES ARRIVES The car load of sixty-five municipal light poles that was detained at Phil adelphia several days, in order to make necessary repairs to the car,arrived iu this city yesterday and was unloaded near the Philadelphia & Reading sta tion. The work of planting poles was resumed and as another car load is ex pected to arrive in a day or two tiie work will proceed without further de lay IRON COMES FOR EXCHANGE BRIDGE The new Anthony township bridge at Exchange.called theßrennan bridge will be erected very soon. All of the Iron for it has arrived, County Com missioner Oook stated yesterday, and the work of putting the structure to gether will be provided for by the Commissioners at once.

Her schoolmate, Nettle Long, whose father joined and managed tin* big Lou% rnitfh alkil who was now living with him out In the wilds, had written that a person would meet Bessie at Snow 1111 l with a bnck boanl and bring her safely to the ranch. The "person"proved to be a young man of twenty-live, dressed as a cowboy, hut having rather a distin guished look about hlin. While he was hastening along the platform and yet thirty feet away the girl acknowl edged to herself that his features were good and that his face showed charac ter and ambition. Perhaps it was for these reasons that, while be was cov ering the other thirty feet, Miss Bessie suddenly decided that he ought to be snubbed. "This Is Miss Vaughn of Chicago, I presume?" he said as he lifted his hat and smiled a welcome. What right had he to presume? By what right did he stnile a welcome and oeem ready to shake hands? The girl looked coldly at him and slightly nod ded her head, and that was snub No. 1. The young man took it so; but, though he colored up, he did not lose his smile. "You will give me your checks, please, and I will put your trunks aboard, and we will befcff." There was a touch onluthority In his tones that nettled the girl, and she turned away and delivered up the checks with her own hand. She would also have loaded the trunks on the vehicle if she had been strong enough. Snub No. 2 had followed fast on tho heels of snub No. 1. "We have fifteen miles to drive, and the road is rather rough," observed the young man as they got seated. No reply. Snub No. 3. "I take it that you have never visit ed this section before?" was remarked after the silence had lasted for a mile. "No." "But I trust you will find novelty and pleasure." Miss Bessie looked straight ahead j and shut her teeth hard. What was It to one of Colonel Long's ldred men ! whether she enjoyed the west or not? | The man was presumptuous, and she I meant her silence to be another snub. ; Whether It was so takeu or not. It was not more than five minutes before a j voice which had a touch of the patfcrnal | In it remarked: "You don't look overwell, and a» cou ple of months of this bracing atmos ! phere will d<> you a world of good." "Sir. are yon a practicing physician?" asked Miss Bessie as she turned to look the young man square In theteyes. "Well, no," he slowly replied. "Then you need not bother to'take charge of my health." That was what the boys would have called a settler, and It hung the >*ouug man up for the next ten ruiriutes. When he spoke again, however, it was I as if nothing had happened. I"It was on that hill over there)'' he quietly said, as he pointed with his whip, "that four of our men wera sur rounded by fifty Indian warriors two years ago." Miss Bessie deliberately turnad to look in the opposite direction, and she felt that he was smiling as he con tinued: "One of the boy* was killed, butjthey killed twelve Indians and held their ground all day." What was It to her whether o»e or the whole four cowboys were killed? Indeed she found herself almost ivlsh lng that all had been wiped out. She hadn't the slightest interest InS the affair—not that day. "And over there in that valley Is where a drove of steers ran ovefl and trampled the life out of two ofj our men last spring. We didn't find their boots." Miss Bessie looked straight rthead and made no reply. "And you wouldn't believe, you, that this insignificant creel we are crossing was a mile wide un<l ten feet deep last May? We lost a {thou sand head of stock In that flood." Still no reply. It was snub rafter snub, and she meant to tire him out Thl« time the silence lasted far fll'teen minutes, and she It was who brofke It at last The horses had shied at a coyote dodging for cover and started away on a tearing gallop. The yfaung man kept them on the trail, but luade not the slightest effort to check! the pace. On the contrary, he butnmad a popular air as they laid down to 'their ■ work. The visitor stood it as as she could, and then turned ami ex claimed: "Can't you see that the horses! ars runniug away?" "I have seen it for some he quietly replied. "Then why don't you stop theijit?" "1 will if you so wish, but a of i a few miles won't hurt them anjl.*' 1 She did wish it from the bott<>m of i her heart, for the vehicle was Jumping like a goat, and It took both bands to hold her hat on her head, but. she grit ted her teeth and decided to be stttash ed Into jam before she would pfefer the request. The horses ran for three or four miles and the® sobered duwn, and the young girl felt that slw? had snubbed the young man again l|yt not | being afraid. "Who Is that lutm you sent fai the depot after meV" she asked of her J schoolmate almost'before she had tak i en off her hat "Who? Why, that's Tom. l'Ujfor mally introduce you some day." i "You needntt mind. I founds \him rather presumptuous mid had to/ (nub him." "Tom presumptuousV Why, hfftj the j nicest"— And then she suddenly skip|W*l to pome other subjt-et, and Tom w for ! gotten till then- xt day, when hf was bold enough to approach Miss Jtt'ssle as she was ah-ne for a moment 1 and ask: "What sort of a gait do yoiiAffefer In a horse a Irot or a lope? to select one for you today." •••i '■■■■: ■ ■ ■■■ v_ "*• any trouble on my account," was the reply, *nd Tom ought to have felt duly crushed as he walked away He was not seen again for four days, duty having called lilni away. The two girls rode out every day on ponies M leoted for them, and it the fourth <*• caslon something hap|>ened. The pony ridden by Miss Bessie suddenly Itolt-l, and when she found hnn beyond < on trol she could only cling to the saddle and hope he would tire him 4\ nfteT running a couple of mil* - But he didn't. He kept a straight course and a headlong gallop for tulle after mile, aud the girl was thinking of throwing herself from the saddle when a cow pony rangtd up beside her, a hand grasped her loose rein, and a voh-e said in her ear: "Keep your head. Miss Vaughn. I could pull him down and end his run here, but there Is need of even more speed." "W what Is It?" she asked as she turned her heed and saw Tom beside her. "Indians! There are five or si* In chaae of us, ana I am racing for that hill with the rocks on it. Cling tightly, and don't be afraid." After a terrific race for another mile both animals were suddenly pulled up, and, dismounting and lifting the girl from the saddle, Tom half pulled her up the steep side of the hill to the shelter of the rocks. "We are all right now," he cheerful ly said. "But you keep crouched down till I have a little talk with these noble red men." The "talk" was his Winchester, and before It was over he had killed one and wounded another. Their loss, to gether with the alarm of the firing, pent the remaining Indians scurrying away. At the ranch hoiyje, after the story had been told, Miss Bessie asked for the second time: "Who Is this man Tom?" "Why, he's an old Yale man and be longs to one of the best families in the east. He caine out here for his health, you see. Did you have to snub him again today?" "I—l don't think so." "But are you going to some other day ?" "No, never again. I'm so sorry and ashamed-and I think—think"— Well, there's a rumor afloat, and It may be true. IMPRESSING THIE~iINDIANS. j j Stilton I rnifr'i Method* With the I n tntor*>d lledNklna, Even as late as the year 1805 there were Indians on the North American continent who had never seen or heard } a gun, had never seen tobacco smoke and were capable of worshiping the white men who controlled these won ders. The Kev. A. G. Morice tells «>f i some of the adventures of Simon Era ser, who has stamped his name on , Canada. Father Morice writes as fol- I Iowa: "On landing at Lake Stuart Era ser* a men, to Impress the natives with a proper Idea of their wonderful re j sources, tired a volley with their guns, i whereupon the whole crowd of In i dlans fell prostrate to the ground. To ' allay their fears and make friends to 1 bacco was offered them, which, on be l Ing tasted, was found too bitter and ! thrown away. Then, to show Its use, the crew lighted their pipes, and at the sight of smoke Issuing from their I mouths the people began to whisper that they must come from the land of ghosts, since they were still full of | the flre wherewith they had been ere i united. Pieces of soap were given to the women, who, taking them to be cakes of fat, set upon crunching them. | causing foam and bubbles In the ! mouth, which puzzled both actors and : bystanders. All these phenomena, however, were soon explained away, j leaving profound admiration for the 1 foreigners and their wares."

Magellan, practically tho first to cir j cumnavigate the world, set out from Spain In 1519 to find a western route 1 ! to the famous Moluccas, or Spice ls : lands. Vague rumors of a pacific ocean 1 were scattered through Europe. To ! tent these Magellan, following the 1 i const of Bouth America. passed » through tho strait which now bears 1 his name, formerly the strait of tho Eleven Thousand Virgins, tossed all the time on a most tempestuous sea. ' Emerging Into the broad waters on the west, he sailed northwest for three i months and twenty days on a placid, t almost unruffled sen, which he chris i tsned then and there Mar Pactflco, or 1 Pacific ocean, the name 1t will now ' forever bear. Notwithstanding its » name typhoons In the west and else • where make this ocean as perilous a path as any other to those who tempt its vast expanse and comparative soli 1 tude. Magellan himself fell In the Philip pines, but the Vlrttorla came home to 1 tsll the tale. Drake was the first Eng lishman to sail on its wide waters.— London Standard. BOOKWORMS. Not (he Hainan Kind, hut the liruha That Tunnel Volume#. Blades, In his Interesting volume. ' "The Enemies of Booka," has shown that several very real bookworms are undesirable tenants of old libraries, and he has studied closely several ' specimens seut him and described their ravages. Two grubs in particular richly de serve this name, the anobtuui, pertl uax or erudltus and the oecophora. 1 The anoblum, a small, light colored, brown bended grub, with a body like thin Ivory or transparent wax, bears a close resemblance to the white mag gots of a Stlitou cheese. Working with a pair of strong Jaws, like a ateel bit, the grub begins at the wooden boards and If allowed will perforate the whole volume The oecophora. similar to tho ainubium, except for the possession of six legs. Is not unlike the so calletl deathwatch. M. Pelgnot asserts that he found twenty-seven volumes In one row pierced from end to end by a single worm tunnel.
