Montour American. FRANK C. ANGLE. Proprietor. Danville. Pa., Nov. 15. 1906. iii ui sin From errand boy to governor of the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is an advancement in life that comes to but few men, and the friends and neighbors of Edwin S. Stuart have not tired of showering him with con gratulations since the result of last Tuesday's election became known. Aside from this reason for congratula tion is found in the fact that when he is inducted into his high office early in the coming year Mr. Stuart will enjoy the distinction of being the first native born Philadelphia!! elevatedjto the governorship iu many years. Bl 112 tuwm s bioAMr The life story of the man who will inJJanuary become chief executive of Pennsylvania is in man> respects sim ilar to that of many other citizens w ho have risen from the most humble of circumstances to become managers and owners of important business establish ments through their own unaided ef forts. Starting life as an errand boy in Leaiy's old book store in Philadel phia at the early age of 13 years, this rise from that lowly position through auccessive stages until he became a member of the firm, owning the store the floors of which he used to sweep clean aft6r the day's business was end ed, was a rapid one. All the while that he was gaining knowledge of the business his cheery disposition and rugged honesty were making for him frknds of men In the higher walks ot life both politically and socially,with whom he was continually brought in contact. These influential friends lat er elected him president of the Union League, of Philadelphia, which posi tion of honor he occupies at the pres ent time. His political affiliations earned for him a seat in the Philadel phia select council, and later he be came the mayor of his native city. Now that the election is over, Mr. Stuart takes his latest honor just as calmly and coolly as he did the lesser ones which preceded it. He is more than ever the friend of the neighbors of his South Broad street home, and has not changed one iota from his usual genial self, nor is he one bit less ap proachable than in the past. DEVOTED TO HIS HOME. Ex-Mayor Stuart iB pre-eminently a lover of home life and home comforts. He has devoted much time and atten tion to securing articles of beauty for his residence at No. 1538 South Broad street, Philadelphia, over which his sister, Miss Cora A. Stuart, has ruled aince the death of his mother some years ago. Having never married, he, ' after the death of his parents, took as far as possible their place to his young er brothers and sisters, who even now look up to him as their best friend and counsellor. These brothers and sisters were not at all anxious that he should make the campaign through which he has just successfully passed, and now that he is elected and will have to move to Harrisburg, the prospect of giving up his comfortable home in Philadelphia and leaving the friends for whom he has the most affection is not entirely pleasing to him, although be appreciates the honor the people of the State have done him. In speaking of the coming change of residence Mayor Stuart said: "My sisters are not anxious to make the change, but I suppose, of course, we will iiave to move to Harrisburg. Why, we have Just gotten moved in from our summer quarters at Oak Lane, and we have hardly had our house fixed up for the winter." AIMS AT QUIET LIFE. Asked if lie e*»»rtjr to do much en tertainijuMn a social way at Harrls- Suirg, the next governor replied : "I don't think that we will have to go about much. I hope not. It Beems to me that a governor can, if he chooses, live a quiet retired life. Any how, that is what I am going to try to do. Of course I don't mean to be a hermit,but big functions don't appeal to me, and when possible, I most 1 ito ly will avoid them." Speaking of the handsome and valu able collection of books which he has n his home library, he said: "Although I sell books, I am not particularly literary iu my tastes. My library is made up largely of the works of standard authors and refer ence books. My library at the store is a valuable one, but would not be of interest to most people because nearly every book in it is a wont on books themselves. Just now, however, I have no time for reading, as it will be all that I can do to catch up with my cor respondence before leaving for a short rest at some quiet point the latter part of next week. I have some 10,000 let ters from friends and well-wishers to reply to, which in itself,! assure you, is no little task. I expect now to an swer these letters myself, so you can ■ee that I will be very busy for some daya to come. Many of these notes are from men whom I have known nil tuy life,and they have given me the great ets pleasure." DAILY ROUTINE OF LIFE. While speaking Mayor Stuart was sitting before his bi« rolltop desk in his library,preparing to delve into Ins mass of correspondence without loss of time. His daily routine of life, which has been very much disturbed siuce the opening of the campaign is, under ordinary circumstances, as reg ular as clockwork. Rising promptly at 7 o'clock each morning, he breakfasts with the other members of the family at 7 80. After breakfast, disdaining carriages and trolley cars, he daily walks up South Broad street to the Union League and later to his Ninth street store. Street urchins, who , through long custom, have grown to know fiis large slightly-stooped figure as he takes his morning walk from his home, do not hesitate to call as lie passes them, "There goes the gover nor," certain that they will recevie in return a bright smile of recognition. The mayor, as he is best known to his friends around the League, is no fair weather pedestrian. Raiu or shine, he does not deviate from his custom of walking uptown to business. Since be ing elected president < 112 the Union League lie has made a practice of al ways stopping there for a short time each tunning in order to transact such business d the club as is required of hitn because of his official position. Hi- next stop is at a barber shop ou Thirteenth -treet, which he lias pa trouize 1 for the past twenty-five years After his morning shave he goes at ouce to work in iiis little cub by hole of an office at the rear of his store. His brother, William 11. Stuart, is the most active member of the part nership and attends to most of the business connected with tlie Old Rook Store, the lame ot which ha.- spread ! all over the country. While the junior member of the firm looks after the de tails of the store Ins brother detotes much of his time and attention to his duties as a member of the board of ' city trusts and to his woik as chair man of the finance committee of that board. An evidence of the care with which he performs his duties in con nection with this work is the fact that because of several important meetings which will be held this week Mr. Stuart will remain in the city, defering a much needed rest un til this duty is entirely disposed of. After spending the morning at the store the governor-elect regularly at 1 o'clock, makes a visit to the Union League, where he lunches with friends. After that, if there is no board meet ing, he returns to the store, where he remains until siu the evening. At that hour he returns to his home, sel dom leaving it in the evening unless called out by business matters. FISHING HIS RECREATION. Ex-Mayor Stuart's one recreation is fishing. He is an ardont follower of Isaak Walton,and will spend an entire day along a trout stream,satisfied with an occasional catch. Deep-sea fishing is also one of his pastimes, and for many years he has spent a part of each summer at Asbury Park, where he has quite a reputation as a fisherman. This year, however the family chang ed their summering place and spent the hot months at Oak Lane, near Philadelphia. In Mr. Stuart's political career he has never been defeated for any office for which he sought election. He took an interest in politics early in life, but it was not until the Garfield camp aign of 1880 that he took any active part. He joined the Young Republi cans, who were organized that year as a marching club,with headquarters at the southeast corner of Tenth and Walnut streets. He was appointed quartermaster of the club, his duties bieng those of treasurer. He was later elected president, and continued the head of the club until elected mayor in 1891. In 1884 the State league of Republi can clubs was organized and at the first convention, held in Lancaster, he was elected its president. He served in that capacity for many years. In 1886 he was elected to the Philadelphia select council from the Twenty-sixth ward. At that time James McManes and William R. Leeds, both Republi can bosses, were opposed to Mr. Stuart but he was elected by the largest maj ority ever given a councilman in the ward. In 1891 he was elected mayor by the largest majority ever given a mayor of Philadelphia up to that time. After his retirement from office he was tendered a dinner by many prominent reaidentH.at which speeches were made endorsing his administra tion. In 1896 the board of judges ap pointed him a member of the board of city trusts, lie is a past master of Keystone lodge, No. 271, Free and Ac cepted Masons; grand marshal of the lodge of Pennsylvania, and a member of kindred organizations.

Nov. 14. The Tribunal of First Instance of the Seine, .Judge Ditte presiding, at noon todaj- granted a divorce to the Countess Do Castellauo (formerly Anna Gould, of New York), and gave her the custody of her children, who, however, will not be allowed to be taken from France withotut the con sent of their father, Count Boni De Castellane. The end of the famous case came suddenly. The court brushed aside the demand of the Count's lawyers for an examination of witnesses aud, as an ticipated, the public prosecutor did not even ask to be heard. VICTORY FOR COUNTESS. As soon as the court assembled Judge Ditte handed down the judgment, which is a sweeping victory for the Countess. Iu granting her petition for divorce, the court gave the Couutess the custody of her children, the Count being allowed only the usual rights to see them and share iu the control of rheir education, which was not con tested. The Count is given the right to see the children at stated periods at the home of their grandmother and keep them a mouth annually during the holidays. NO ALLOWANCE FOR COUNT. The Count's demand for an "alimen tary allowance of #*>o,ooo annually," was pronounced by the court to be without foundation iu law aud was rejected. The only poiut decided in the Count's favor was the imposition of the inhibition of the Couutess to take the children out of France without their father's consent. «112 Xi ' The'court'appointed ,;the President of the Chamber of Notaries to liquid ate the affairs of the husband and wife. COSTS PUT ON THE COUNT. The judgment was given with costs against the Count. The decree, the reading of which nardly consumed five minutes, was delivered by the judge in a voice so low as to be practically inaudible to the great crowd filling the court room. Many women climbed the chairs in vain efforts to hear the decision, and when they were aware that divorce was granted they seemed actually to resent the loss of a public trial at which people in high society would be compelled to testify. HISTORY OF THE CASE. Auna Gould, the youngest daughter of the late Jay Gould, was married to Count Ernest Bonitace de Castellane, the eldest son of the Marquis de Castel lane, at the New York home of her brother, George J. Could, March 4, 1895, the late Archbishop Corrigau, officiating. Miss Gould's dowry was understood to have been $18,000,000, and it was further stated that her in come was |600,000 a year. Immediate ly after the marriage the couple left the United States for France, where the extravagant manner in which they lived attracted considerable attention. About five years after the marriage the Count and Countess de Castellane were reported to be financially em harassed, it being alleged that the Count had already spent about $7,000,- 000 of his wife's money. An adjust ment of the affairs of the Couut and Countess became necessary and consid erable litigation followed, with the result that the Gould family iuterveu ed and the income of the Countess was cut down to 200,000. PROCEEDINGS BEGUN LAST FEB On Feburarv sof the present year the Couutess de Castellaue entered a plea for divorce, the hearing of which began before Judge Ditte, Maitre Cruppi appearing for the Couutess and Maitre Bonnet for the Count. Evidence in the shape of correspondence between the Count and women was presented and the case was adjourned to Novem ber 7, when the final pleas were made and the suit adjourned until Novem ber 14. On the following day, Novem ber 8, the case of the Count's credit ors was presented to the court and ad journed for two weeks. The three children of the Casteliaues are George, Boni and Jay, the young est being the name-sake of his moth er's father, the late Jay Gould.

She was near fifty yearn old and the new merchant not yet twenty-six, but she let it be known that when a marriage took place between them the firm name of "George French & Co." might be shortened to -'George French." There was a rush of customers to the new store. To keep expenses down and make an innovation young French employed a jrirl bookkeeper and an other girl as clerk. As the widow in.-Isted on his board ing with her so that they could talk business and lie he under her watch, she did lid leeoine jealous for a time. The day came, however, when she an nounced that lie must get rid of both girls and t .'place them with men. lie r ■ ; ed to heed her in this, point ing out tL • saving and other good rea sons. (hie of the reasons that be did not give was that he admired the fatherless ir!. Jennie Warder, the bookkeeper, who was sttj porting a wid owed n.other by her efforts, and to whom lie '.iad be-n attracted from the first da.v. liis admiration must have been patent to her in 112, hundred ways, and yet lie had spoken uo word. The new store was an e.\pf 1 inent; If it was a success lie might avow himself. If a failure he would hav» no right, to ask her to share his lot. The widow Allen concealed her cha grin and did not prof.s her point. The young merchant was hustling and mak ing things gloomy for her victim. At the proper time be would offer an alter native. Nine months ol' liberal advertising, low prices and attention to business on the part of the new storekeeper brought bankruptcy to two of the other merchants, but they brought no such profits to French as he had hoped for. He had bound li'mself to sell at certain prices and he dared not depart from them. He bad bound himself to repay a certain amount of the capital invest ed at the end of the first twelve months, and figure as he would he could not see his way clear to do so. The widow was -viilting for him to speak, and then she laughed and hinted at matrimony When her hints were turned aside she said quietly: "At the end of the year you must pay me as agreed. If not the law will put me in possession and yon will be out of employment." "But you are no. pressed for money You can give me time," he protested. "I have worked like a slave to make the store a success. I putin a thou sand dollars of my own money. You would not drive me into bankruptcy?" "If we are not married 011 the day your notes are due 1 shall demand my money. ll' you g-> into bankruptcy 1 shall buy in the stock and put some one else in your place." Her declaration lost her her boarder, but when he walked out of the house he knew that he was ruined in busi ness. He could not pay her the half of what he owed her, and a call at the lawyer's brought lum no comfort. She had spoken of marriage, but ho turned away in disgust at the thought. She had said she would ruin him, and sha was a woman to keep her word. There is always a way out for the merchant WHO finds bankruptcy star lag him iu the face, and few take it who cannot excuse themselves to their own consciences. The merchant went over the ground time and time again, but he always came back to the ou« thing. If his dure was burned out be fore the year was up the insurance money would pay the widow Aileu and leave him something to start anew. Men recoil from this Idea at first, but i.the situation is pressing a large proportion grasp it in the end. Young French looked around his store and saw the favorable situation of things. All he need do was to leave a lighted candle among the litter un der the stairway when he went home at night. By midnight or an hour later the whole building would be iu flames, with no possibility of auything being saved. The widow Allen alone might suspect him, but she would have no proofs. The merchant debated the Idea with himself for two weeks before he adopt ed it. In the store he gave no sign that he was troubled, but the book- Keeper was 111 >t deceived. She knew what the profits were, and she knew win had a clut h on him. She even ir.ierpreted the glances he cast around ie store, and when she saw him add -11. to the litter in the closet she could lave t »iil I: .a his purpose. • he i\'niy. rainy night, when there 1 i. <■ -i i- shutting up early, and • I,m wi.it Ibirt.v days remained be -1 in ii an 1 business ruin, lie 1. .!e pretext 11 be the last one out ; a ! t' • candle >vas placed and lighted. Tl: • yiuig merchant went to his board in:-: Ii mi -e :uid to his room, and all he had t ■ do was wait. The wind rose and the rain fell more heavily, and he was rejoiced at the thought that none of the villagers would be on the street in such a storm. Between midnight and 1 o'clock the flames would start When the alarm was given people could only turn out and look on with folded arms. French went to bed at the usual hour. Me left nothing to chance. lie lay there hour after hour thinking, scheming and planning, it was close upon mianigf •> wh'"i his other self came to the rescue. Tli. two personalities debated and ar gued and fought. The one self con tended and the other protested. After a quarter of an hour the mer chant arose and hurriedly began to dress. He was pale faced and trem bling and frightened. He felt himself a criminal and branded beforo the world. Bankruptcy might come, he might be forced to most menial employ nient. the widow Allen might triumph and he might lose the one be had learned to love, but he would save the store. The wind was blowing a gale and the rain coming In sheets when he stepped from the door and ran through the mud and storm to the store. Not even a dog was In sight. As he ran he prayed that he might not be too late. With shaking hands he Inserted the key in the door and pushed it open. There was no smell of smoke. Striking a match, he made his way to the closet The candle had been blown out hours ago. It had n»t burned half an Inch. With a new fear at his heart the man turned away and lighted a lamp and leaned on the counter to think. He heard the rustle of garments and light footsteps, and Miss Warder came out of the darkness and stood before him and said: "Air. French. I blew the candle out a long, long time ago." "You—you found and blew it out!" he gasped. "Yes, and 1 have been waiting for you to come." "I was going to burn the store for the Insurance," he said, after a long silence. '"Yes." "To pay the notes due that woman in thirty days and save myself from bankruptcy." "I know." "But I couldn't do it. I thought I could—l meant to —but I came here to blow out the candle and save the store. I am a ruined man, but I am not a criminal except in Intent." "I knew you would come," said the girl, with tears in her voice. "It is hard to face ruin, but it is harder to face conscience. Y'esterday a lawyer came to see mother. He told her she was one of the heirs to a large es tate. lie brought papers for her to sign, and within a month she will have $20,000." "Well ?" queried French, as he wiped his brow and looked around the store. "I—thought—thought"— "You want to give me notice and leave your place at the end of the week. Y'ou will go, of course, but I hope you will remember that I came back to save the store. I wanted the Insurance money, but my conscience wouldn't let me be a criminal." "I thought that if you wanted to take In a partner"— "But where can I find one'.'" "If you—you wanted to take in a partner and pay up the notes and be clear of that woman mother would give me the money, aud"— He saw her to her homo through the storm and darkness, and he did not realize that the wind blew or the rain fell or that he had to pick his steps. He realized only that he held her hand and that he had been saved from his other self. His sign reads "George French." but there Is a silent partner with him and behind him and dally adding to his happ ness. Roeliel »» l'liolre. So 1 saw Rachel.

"No," said the master of ceremonies. "How then can you judge of what you never heard?" "By common report," said Nash stoutly. "Common report Is not enough.

Knowing that, under ordinary circumstances. such testimony would be inadmissible, j Keade is careful to establish that the writer knew herself t » lie dying: but he was unaware that a "dying declara tion" is only admissible in evidence upon a charge of murder or man slaughter of tlie person who has made it, and cannot be laid before the jury in any other case winterer. Numerous and entertaining are the trial scenes which adorn the works of Mrs. Henry Wood, but they hardly pro fess to be strictly accurate. Let ine point, rather, to an interesting slip ou the part of that most careful of nov elists. David Christie Murray, who shares to some extent the popular con fusion on the subject of the law of libel and slander, llis powerful story, "A Capful o' Nails," has lor ils hero n working nailer, who becomes an agitator on behalf of Ills much op pressed class. In consequence of a speech denouncing an unscrupulous employer he is prosecuted on a charge of criminal libel; but, thanks to a faith ful friend and a smart lawyer, he emerges triumphantly. No fault can be found In this case with the way iu which the villain is cross examined to pieces. The diffi culty is that no such prosecution could have been Instituted at all. You may plunder a man by defamatory speech, but to libel him you mast "write, print or otherwise permanently record'' your defamation of him, and, though slan der aud libel alike may expose you to an action for damages, it is libel alone that can bring you within the grasp of the criminal law. It Is difficult to uphold this distinc tion. A libel Is regarded as a public crime as well as a private wrong tie cause It tends to provoke a breach of the peace, but one would think as much might lie said of slander. Still the distinction exists, and the ag gressor who confines his attack tc words may suffer in pur«e. but not in person. Such are a few of the slips to which the novelis is liable who unwarily trespasses upon legal preserves.—Pear son's Weekly. Sarprlnlnft Knowledge.
