Montour American. FRANK C. ANULE, Proprietor. Danville. Pa., Nov. 14, 1907. 1 GREAT weim Ideas and Inspiration Taken by One Author From Another. BUT GENIUS BORROWS NOBLY The Crude Ore Is Refined and the Raw Material Fashioned Into a Thing of Beauty—Shakespeare as a Most Bril liant Example. Our great writers are not great rob bers. Literature is not a repository of stolen goods. What seem like steal ings by the steel pen are rather the output of the lapidary or a reissue of the mint or, better still, the borrow ings from a bank repaid with interest. "It is wonderful," says Charles Reaile. "how genius can borrow." "All literature," remarks Oliver Wendell Holmes, "lives by borrowing and lend ing," and. lie adds, "A good image is like a diamond, which may be set a hundred times in as many generations and gain new beauties with every change." This is not a question of originality. "The lighting a candle at a neighbor's fire," observes Dean Swift, "does not affect our property in the wick and flame." "Genius bor rows nobly." The transference is often a transmutation. For brass, the borrower brings gold, and for iron, silver, and for wood, brass, and for stones, iron. The crude ore is refined and the raw material fashioned into a thing of beauty. It has been pointed out by Mr. Huth tu bis "Life of Buckle" that there is a kind of pedigree In literature. Dante avows his indebtedness to Virgil, as the latter himself was under obliga tions to Homer. Arlosto owes much to Virgil, and Spenser borrows frequently from Arlosto. Spenser's "Faerie Queene" gave birth to Fletcher's "Purple Is land." snd this to Bernard's "Isle of Man," end this In turn to Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe" and l'unyan's "Pilgrim's Progress"—all like so many blossoms rising from the one stem. Shakespeare has been called "the great Warwickshire thief," so inveter ate is his borrowing habit. He invaded literature like a Napoleon and brought back the rarest art treasures to enrich and beautify his verse. One is sur prised to learn that our dramatist has no original plots, that he has given to poetry no new rhythm or stanza and that "he ran not only in the old road, but in the old ruts." Ills "As You Like It" is taken from an old romance. The characters of his "Julius Caesar" are old Romans taken from Plutarch. But what borrowing! Dry bones are turned into living men. The common est materials are taken Into the lam bent flame of his genius nnd transmut ed into airy beauty. Milton, too, is a free borrower. It is this fact, indeed, that makes his verse so rich in learned reminiscence and so gorgeous with "barbaric pearl and gold." He owes much to Shakespeare. Some critics think Milton's Eve is bor rowed from Shakespeare's Miranda. In the "Taming of the Shrew" occurs the line: As morning roses newly washed In dew. While Milton in "I.'Allegro" speaks of— Fresh blown roses washed In dew. Milton is a very mine to many. Pope is his debtor. Milton's "Smoky Sor ceress"- a woman to ihe waist and fair, but "ending foul in many a scaly fold voluminous and vast"—is made to say, "They call me sin and for a sign portentous hold me; but, familiar grown, 1 pleased and with attractive graces won the most averse." Pope sings: Vice In a monster of si frightful mien As to be hated needs but to be seen; Hut seen too oft, familiar Willi her face. We first endure, then pity, then embrace. Tennyson must have had in mind Milton's Hanging in a golden chain This pendent world when lie wrote: The whole round world is every way Bound by gold chains about tho feet of God. Tenny son, indeed, derives much of his exquisite imagery and felicitous phras ing from authors whose names, even, many literary men do not know. l'ope borrows his "Vital Spark" idea from an old poem by Thomas Flatman. Byron geis his "Eagle Feather" im age in his "English Hards and Scotch Reviewers" from Aeschylus, who flour ished in the liftli century before our era. Colerid?" owes ills "Ode to Mont Blanc" to a German poem by Frledrlch Brown. Bisbop Ken is Indebted for his thought In"The Evening Ilymn" to Sir Yhonias Browne in his "Colloquy With Cod." Iu his own characteristic manner Itudyard Kipling lias met the ques tion of unconscious thievery with u bit of vurse which commences: When 'Omer smote 'is bloomln' lyre 'E'd 'card men sing by land and aea. And wot 'e thought 'e might require 'E went an' took the same as me. Lot Shakespeare's lines close this paper: I'll example you with thievery: The nun's a thief, and with his great at traction Robs the vast sea; the moon's an arrant thief. And her pale fire she snatches from the sun; tt'he sea's a thief, wlio.se liquid surge re solves The moon into salt tears; tiie earth's a thief .That feeds and breeds by a composture stolen From general excrement; each thing's a thief. —S. R. Dunn In Circle Magazine. A Stylist. L'ncie—Here, my boy, are a couple of chocolate cigars. Hut where are you going with them? Little Johnny— Why, I am going to eat them in the smoking room.- Meggendorfer Blatter. In the early colonial times of 1052 toll .'-co and tobacco receipts were legal tender. Corn and beans aud Codfish were also employed. OLD RIVER ROAD BOBS DP AGAIN Judge Evans Saturday handed dowu opinions in a'couple of road cases,one of which, especially, the "old river road," has been before court for sev eral years. As relates to this road our readers will be interested to learn that the report of."viewers, which favored vacating tlie road, was set, aside by ; the court. The other opinion related ito the road inj r Limestone township where the "proceedings were set \ aside." ! In ra application to vacate road in Mahoning township and the borough l of Danville. Opinion of the court stir | exceptions to report of viewers. "The petitioners, inhabitants of the townships of Mahoning and the bor ough of Danville on the 2fith day of May, 1902, presented their petition to I the court setting forth'"that a publio j road has long since been laid out be ginning ut a point in the public road | leading from the borough of North | umber land to the borough of Danville !at or near the residence of Gilbert i West, then running in an easterly i course to and along the Susquehanna | river to the southern part of the boi j ough of Danville. I "That by reason of a flood in the I Susquehanna'! river [occurring on or about the third day of March, A. D. ! 1902, the greater portion of the above I described road has been washed away j and wholly destroyed and that the said road startingVat~a'point'*at its inter ' Hection"with'the"alley leading from it |to tiie western end of West Mahoning street at or near the property of estate of Jesse Beaver, deceased, now occupi ed by Michael Etter to a point in pub i lie road leading from the said borough | <7TNortlTumberland to the borough of ; Danville, its starting point, as afore j fiTid, has thereby become useless,incon | venieut, and burdensome and its re ! pair and continuance is wholly im practicable and impossible. The peti ; fioners"further represent that bv rea son of tiie existence parallel road ; leading from Northumberland to Dan i vTWe said road has become useless, ex pensive, inconvenient and burdensome Tiie petitioners, pray the | court to vacate that portion of the ! road as described above." I "~The court granted a role to show ! cause whey viewers should not be ap -1 pointed as prayed for, which rule was i made absolute December 31, 1904. j The report of the viewers stated That we have viewed the said road and have fully heard all parties inter ested and have concluded and are of the opinion that the said road has be j come useless, inconvenient and burd [ ensome and ought, therefore, to be ! vacated." On September 23, 1905, exceptions , were filed to said report by the bor ough of Danville and the property ; owners affected by the proposed vaea- I tion. ! ?The court's opinion states that from | a careful reading of the order to the 1 viewers and the report of the viewers lit does not appear in what township or county the road is situated. And further the termini of the vacated road ; are not definitely located. From all ! that appears in the order to or the report of the viewers, where is the I residence of Gilbert. West —in North umberland or Montour county, in Mahoning township or the borough of ! Danville? Where is the property of ; the estate of Jesse Beaver, deceased, j "now occupied by Michael Etter?"— ! in the borough of Danville or the ' township of Mahoning, in Montour county or Northumberland county? Further from the evidence taken in | support of the exceptions the court j finds that the road proposed to be vac ated is needed by a considerable num ber of persons in the vicinity for pub lic use. Koad viewers derive their authority under the law from the order of the ! court. Where the order fails to state 1 in what county or township the road | is situate which it is proposed to vae ' ate; or in what county or towuship ' the termini of said road are situate i the proceedings must be set aside. "The first,second, third, fifth, ninth and tenth exceptions are sustained and the report of viewers is accordingly set aside this 9th day of November 1907. By the court, CHARLES C. EVANS, P. J. " | In re road in Limestone township the oourt rendered an opinion sur ex- I ceptions to report of viewers, sustain ; ing exceptions five, six and eight. The report of viewers shows that George M. West served in the place and stead of George H. West. George M. West, the opinion states, was not appointed a reviewer and he therefore had no right or authority to act or serve as a reviewer. It has been held under the act of May 2, 1899, that failure to give notice to the supervisors of the view was a | good cause for setting aside the report |of the viewers. The act of March 2, ! 1905, provides that notice must be giv en to the supervisors not only of the actual view, but of the application of the petitioners to the court for the ap pointment of viewers or reviewers. * '' And now November 9th, 1907, the i proceedings are setj.aside. By the ' court, , CHARLES C. EVANS, P. J." New Paint. The residence of John Marshall, West Market Btreet, has been given a new coat of paint. The color selected is white with the exception of the window blinds, which are green. The effect is most pleasing. " There are dogs in this world that have nobler qualities than some men. MEN'S BIBLE CLASS GAVE A SUPPER One of the largest and most success ful as well as one of the most unique church suppers ever held in Danville was given Tuesday eve at the Mahon ing Presbyterian church by Dr. Yeo matis' bible class, oomposed entirely of men. The affair was complete from the excellent chicken and waffles to the elaborate decorations and the music and over 500 people partook of the bountiful repast. The Dr. Yeonians class has forty Hve members all men. It is named aft er one of the first pastors of the Pres byterian cliorch, and recently a room has been fitted up in the church for the use of the class by Mrs. Louise Yeonians Boyd, of Harrisburg, daugh ter of Dr. Yeomans, in memory of her father. Mrs. Boyd had intended being in Danville last night, but a death in the fumily prevented her visit. The class is taught by Howard B. Schultz, superintendent of the Sunday school. Every detail of the supper last night was arranged by tiie men members of the olass. The culinary department was under the direction of John B McCoy, and each of the other depart ments was under its own head, and was < ffioiently attended to. The room was profusely decorated for the occasion, appropriately to autumn. Large pumpkins served as vases for the flowers on the tables,and ears of corn and antnmn leaves were tastefully arranged about the room. Music was furnished by a three peice orchestra. The proceeds of the supper will be devoted to a fund for install ing a toilet room in the church. Olerk Robbed Employer's Store, Suubury is much excited over a clev er and daring robbery which was per perated at Brosious Bros', clothing store on the corner of Third and Mark et street, in that town, last week, by Clias. Hans, a trusted clerk. Haas is aged about nineteen, and came from Nescopeck, nnd had been working in the store about a month. One of his duties was to lock the cellar when the store was closed for the night. On Friday evening he left the back cellar window open. Some time during the night he crawled through the window and came up into the store. Knowing the combination of the cash drawer from his experience as a clerk lie open ed it and robbed it of 125 in cash. He then smashed a nickel machine for the sale of collar buttons and robbed it of $3. Selecting a good suit of clothes and a new hat he left the way be came and has not been seen since His room at his boarding house on South Fourth street was searched yes terday and about twenty-five pairs of socks'and other articles of male attire were found. These he had stolen at odd times from the store as the oppor tunities presented themselves during the absence of the members of the firm. How to Make Money.

NO OPPOSITION DEVELOPED A hearing was held in court Satur day relative to the application of citi zens for the legal abandonment of the old Petrikeu oemetery on Bloom street. A number of citizens under oath re lated what they knew of the old ceme tery, establishing without the least doubt the several allegations, namely, that tlie old burial ground is a nuis ance —that no owners can he found for the tract—that it stands in the way of onward march of improvement, etc. j Among the witnesses who testified were : Walter O. Green, John Doster, Alexander Foster, Dr. Jno. Swiesfort, i Oouncilmeu George B. Jacobs and Andrew Schatz, Street Commissioner E. S.Miller and T. J. Rogers, the lat ter trnstee of the Grove Presbyterian church Mr Rogers explained how the old Petrikeu cemetery detracts from ap pearances and the value of the church property. In his opinion every vestige of the old bu ial ground ought to be obliterated and the tract made an ad junct of the park. Councilman Jacobs explained that it is the intention of the borough to vacate and ''relay" the alley between the Petriken cemetery and the park, provided the former be legally aband oned. The cemetery will be added to the park. No one appeared at the hearing to j offer objection to the abandonment of the old cemetery and the court made a final decree,which is iu part as fol lows : DECREE. "And now November 9, 1907, the j court is clearly of the opinion that the within described cemetery or burial 1 ground haß long ceased to be used for interments and that the same has be come so neglected as to become a pub lic nuisance and that the remains of the bodies interred therein seriously j interfere with and hinder the im- j provements extensions and general j progressive interests of the borough 1 of Danville and that therefore the court do hereby authorize, empower, order and direct the removal of such remains of the dead as can yet be con veniently and readily found therein, if any such there be, from the said cemetery or burial ground by the auth orities of the borough of Danville in a careful manner at the expense of the said borougli of Danville, to such oth er burial ground as they may select for such purpose, and, if desired, by the relatives or friends of such dead, to some properly regulated burial ground or cemetery in the immediate vicinity, and the court do hereby fur ther order and direct that, before re moving any of said bodies the said authorities of the borough of Danville shall publish for two consecutive weeks in two daily or weekly news papers of eaid borough a notice declar ing their intention to remove said re- [ mains iu pursuance of this act, and it is further ordered and directed that j relatives and friends of such dead shall have the right to so remove said remaine at any time during said pro- j feedings, at their own expense, before | actual removal by the said authorities ! of the said borough of Danville,and it is hereby still further ordered and directed that all bodies when so re- | moved Bhall be placed in separate j caskets and graves and the headstones, monuments or other marks placed by 1 the remains of such bodies shall be I taken by the said authorities of the said borough of Danville and placed j as near as can be iu the same relative position as before removal.

OHAMBKR CAVED IN. Since Saturday afternoon, when the top of the chamber in which ho was working oaved in, and caused a rush of culm and water from the suiface rolavs of workingmen have been work ing uiicoasingly to reach him uuder the forlorn hope that he might still be alive. DETECTED SCRATCHING. Shortly after midnight the rescuers detected a scratching noise which told them that McUabe was still living and with renewed vigor fresh reliofs were 1 at work and at 5 o'clock this morning he was reached. He had not changed his position from the time the rush occurred as he feared that by moving about another rush of culm might start which would end his life. He thought he had been imprisoned for at least a week and was so weak for want of water that he could scarcely speak and was unable to walk. REMOVED TO HOME. He was removed to his home wtiere ' the house of mourning was changed to one of rejoicing. Arrangements were made last night to bore a hole in hope of teachirg the I entombed miner and supplying him with water and food until his rescue could be made in case he still lived. DEMONSTRATION. McCabe's wife and three small chil dren, who had stayed with the rescu- S ers through the long effort to save him, were overcome with joy. The rescue | of McCabe has astounded mining ex ! perts, who had given opinions that it i was utterly impossible to save him ; and that it would take months to I reach the place where he wasjburied. A demonstration is being arranged ir< honor of the remarkable efforts of the 1 rescuers who doggedly continued their ; work in the face of every discourage i ment and witlvout any evident hope of 1 success. JAIL. SENTENCE EXPIRES TODAY Richard McCormick, who was sent enced by Judge Evans to one year's imprisonment in the county jail on the 14th of January last, will step fortl ; from the county bastile, a free man | today. The law of commutation, which ! applies to McCormiok's case, has i brought about a reduction of his sent ! euce, two months being eliminated. The next court will be held in Jan i uary. From present appearances the volume of business on hand will be exceedingly small. There are a couple iof men iu jail awaiting trial, while the number out on bail is correspond j ingly small. The Street Loafer. The street loafer is undesirable in any city, but how to get rid of him is au unsolved problem. The Canousburg Daily Notes says : "At Monongahela. the merchants are asking the city 1 councils to take some steps to put a stop to street loafing. Xliey say it hurts business to have crowds of loaf ers in front of, or near to the stores. No doubt that is correct: and it is ! just as injurious to business in other towns as it is in Monongahela. It should be put a stop to everywhere. " There are not so many real good men iu the world that it can afford to spare one without protest. CATARRH Ely's Cream Balm ®^MB s AU^ is quickly absorbed.
