NO FREE POUCHES
Town Clerk Brett's Office Was
 Besieged To-Day.

Town Clerk F. P. Brett was out to- day with gun looking for c A. Tenn pleton, who is to have place on the board of aldermen next year. Mir Templeton is one of the persons Who took out a hunters license and in talk ing the matter over with some of his friends he showed them nice leather pouch which he had just purchased, but claimed the town clerk was pass ing them out with the license. The thing spread like wild fire and the first thing MT Brett knew nearly everybody to whom he had issued a license was in the office and wanted to know what about those pouches The thing was new to the town clerk but the hunters wouldn't take that for an answer and one or two of them got so mad that it is certain they would have discharged their rifles at the clerk if they happened to have them with them. One might say it was a good joke, but it was more than that, and it is a question if MT Brett ever will be able to con- vince those who got fooled that Mir Templeton didn't get the pouch from him. Of course it was fine sport for Mir Templeton and he is said to be laughing at it yet, but Mir Brett does not see it that way and for the first time in, his life he appeared out of sorts to-day. Probably this was due tO fha fact th af ono of fha hI1ptore called him liar and said he could give all the pouches to Templeton if he wants to.

 Many Buyers.

The demand for building lots in Ardmore. out North Main street. con- tinues lively and Sunday will be a big day on this beautiful plat. The prices S20 to S125, and the terms, one dollar down, then fifty cents a week, without interest, taxes or ex. tras, have attracted wide attention and brought out many buyers. There are still plenty of choice lots for sale at these remarkably low prices and terms and those who buy now will of course reap the benefit of steadily ad- vancing prices.

New Rules For NaturaIization.

' Our rules of naturalization have hitherto been easy, though the new naturalization law of a year ago for the first time makes the rules really uniform and puts it SO completely in the power of the courts to exclude "undesirables" that even the &C., cepted bar against Japanese appears no longer necessary. But while we have made |: easy for a foreigner to acquire American citizenship. we never have defined how he could diTest himself of 1t We have rath- CT followed the English common law doctrine that an Englishman can never be anything else.
 F. The result has been that large numbers of foreigners have been naturalized in this country with no intention of remaining here-have. in fact. returned almost immediately to their old hCmes and resided there, exercising noEe of the duties of American citizenship. but claiming it's privileges when called upon to render services to the country of their birth and actual residence. Diplomatic dificulties have repeat edly arisen m such cases. particular ly in eastern Europe or in countries claiming military service from all eitize1s and it vas recognized as ne- cessaTy to lay down a rule which should relieve the United States of this kind os false citizenship. The new naturalizstioa law does soue- thing to this effect bT requiring evi- derce rot enly Of bona fde residence but of bona fde intention to remain In ths Uuitsd Ststea-Pknsfslphia Public Ledgsr-

THOUSANDS A MYTH.
D. T. Hart Sets at Rest Talk of His = Winnings on Milton S. Jr.

When Daniel T. Hart. the owner ot the fast pacer Milton s, jr., reached this city yesterday afternoon, he was surprised at the congratulations that everyone he knew gave him on his way up from the depot. He couldn't imagine why there should be so many warm words of praise just becaue his horse had won the race at Orange burg, the day before. Finally when he was asked if he carried the thou sands which he was reported to have won on the race in his travelling grip, he got wise that something out of ihe ordinary had been written about that race and he at once looked up the story. What he saw and heard open ed his eyes in surprise. He had won $S,O0O on the race, So the story went, and he searched himself to see if it was concealed in any part of his clothing. He didn't remember of. any of the bookies dropping fat purse into his pockets surreptitiously and he shook himself to see if such a thing had been done. When he couldn't discover it hidden in the lining of his clothes or in his hat or shoes, he guessed it had all gone up in that pipe that smoked so well. The pipe con- tinued to smoke too later in the day when other reoprts came in. $5O00 was another sum named as his win nings and if he had not come home as quickly as he did his friends might have chartered a special train with a Wells-Fargo express attached in order to carry to Waterbury from the town of Orangebhrg about all the wealth the town possessed. Mil lions were fast appearing on the ho- rizon of the free thinkers, bully guessers and pipe smokers when :he visions were dispelled by the true story of that race.
 Milton s, jr., did win the race, there is no doubt about that and won cas- fly. But not one dollar was taken away from the pool boxes by MT Hart, for the very reason that the sheriffs stepped in just as the book ies were going to do business and made them ante up to the law. and the race was off as far as they were concerned. There would have been a melon out sure if the pools were sold, for Milton S. jr., would have been backed to the limit. The betting would have been heavy against the To- cal horse for the owner of Koto Baron- more was dead sure he had the win ner and intimated as much to Mir Hart before the race was started. Baronmore had to be. content with third money, however, as the race disclosed. All that Mir Hart won was his share of the purse about $200 less ten percent which under the com pound interest of the pipe smokers had grown into the thousands. But there will be a killing before the rac- ing season is over with this speedy local pacer and when things are ripe you will hear the seeds rattle in that juicy melon.
