DANcINa.-H is what purely secular
paper, the Neao York Journal of Education,
says about dancing
great deal can be said about dancing
for instance, the chief of police of New York
city says that three-fourtbs of the abandoned
girls in that city were ruined by dancing
Young ladies allow gentlemen privileges in
dancing, which taken under other circum-
stances, would be considered as improper. 1t
requires neither brains nor good morals to
make a good dancer. AS the love of the one
increases the love Of tho other decreases
How many of the best men aud women are
skilfnl dancers In ancient times the sexes
danced separately Alcohol is the spirit of
beverages So sex is the spirit of the dance
take it away and let the sexes dance separate
~ and dancing would 90 out Of fashion very
soon. Parlor dancing is dangerous. Tipping
and parlor dancing SOW to the wind and reap
the whirlwind. Put dancing in the crucible,
apply the acids, weigh it, and the yerdictof
reason, morality and religion is, " Weighed in
the balance and found wanting"

POETRY
ELBER0N.
By NJ. E. wrSsLow,

The white waves dashed against the shore
At Elberon.
No whisper broke their steady roar
As reverently the swift train bore
To Eberon
Our nations martyr, stricken sore,
Oh. Elberonl
Thine arms received our lion slain.
Kind Elheron;
Thy breezeS rocked his couch of pain,
And famed with healing breath though vain
Sweet Elberon.
Before thy gates our hearts have lain,
Sad Elosron.
Our choicest treasure In thy care.
Rich Elheron
Millions of hearts thy vigils share;
nation turning In its prayer
Toward Eberon.
And every freeman owns a share
Of Elberon.
Hope lowered In that shaded room
At Elheron.
Death fought ana conquered In It's gloom,
And now dirge the waters boom
at ElberoB.
Henceforth as sacred asa tomb
p Is Elbersn.
None saw the angel who came doSn
To Elbefon, W
When all were sleeping In the town,
In tears that slumber could not drown,
Sad Elberon.
Yet verify he brought crown
To Elberon.
A life so strong, so wise so true,
All. Eiberonl
That we its Gou-lent light who knew
Have caught the rapture of the view
At Elberon,
And pledged our lives to God anew
Blest Elberon 49,.

Early swedish Settlements.

Professor Gregory b. Keene, Cor
responding Secretary of the Historical
Society of Pennsylvania, last evening,
read a paper before the Historical SoA
ciety Of Delaware, on the "Early
Swedish Settlements on the Delaware"
Judge Wales presided over the meet
ing, which was large and intelligent
gathering. Chief Justice Con egys
and Judge Houston were present.
Prof. Keene's paper described in
detail each of the ten expeditions that
left Sweden for the Delaware. Tho
first arrived in March, 1888, and the
last, not until the surrender of Fort
Trinity, and tho territory on the
Delaware, by John Claesson Rising, to
Peter Stuyvesant, and the establish-
ment of Dutch rule upon the river
OF these, the eighth only failed to
reach its destination, it having been
pillaged in the West Indies by the
French and Spaniards. The Cover
n rs of New Sweden were : First,
Peter Minuit, who determined the
site of the Swedish Colony second,
Peter Hollander and third, John
Claesson Rising, although otbel
Swedes held the position ad interim.
The colony prospered in the beginning
but, in consequence of the wars in
Europe, and the lmpossibility of pro-
viding for the settlement on the part
of the mother country, it was neglect
ed for several years. When efforts
were at last made in Sweden to relieve
and strengthen the colony the expedi
tions failed to reach the Delaware
until it was too late to be of any avail

accomplished by the overpowerinf

Five Coal Cars Upset-Trafns De-
Iayed, but no One Injured.
At six O'Clock this morning, as o
northbound empty freight train on the
Wilmington u Northern Railroad,
just leaving this city was rounding the
curve where the track branches OF
towards the Newport Pike, near the
Delaware Junction, an axle of one of
the cars broke, causing serious dam
age. Five coal cars at the rear OF the
train lett the track and rolled over on
one side IN q complete wreck. The
for ward cars remained on the rails, but
the last car, the caboose, left the
track, though it did not upset. The
only occupant of the caboose was the
flagman, who escaped without in
jury.
Fortunately at the time of the acci-
dent the train was not running at a
high rate of speed, else the results
might have been more serious. None
OF tho cars were damaged save the five
that upset, which were badly bi oxen.
I he track, however, was torn up, and
caused protracted delay to the pas
eenger trains. A force of workmen
was Immediately put to work to clear
away the wreck and repair the track,
but it was 1915 o'clock before the
rails were relaid and through travel
resumed. The seven o'clock train
from this city was delayed over three
hours, and the train from Coatesvillt
due here at eight o'clock did not arrive
until 1920.
| No one happened to be on the Goa
cars when they upset, and, therefore
the accident was not attended with an.
personal injury.
