HANIFA -
Ccopyrirht, BY shOrtstOry Pub. Coz
BY Edgar j. Banks

Abdullah raised his tear-filled eyes
reproachfully.
Yes. Baba, II you will write my
name just once in your great book. l
Will bring your troubles TO an end"
Abdullah, with the eagerness Of the
sinking man who grasped at the straw,
promised. While Hanifa was explain
ing the special revelation which on the
appointed day he should communicate
to the women in the mosque, the tears
suddenly disappeared from his eyes.
Fortified with new hope and courage,
he arose and shouted TO his slaves to
Immediately bring large tray of pilaf.
II was early Friday morning. earlier
than usual, when Abdullah seated him
self upon the platform of the mosque.
His face was beaming with hap
piness, and his eye had never oeen
more bright for he had an i'm
portant communication from Allah TO
reveal TO the wives OF the Faithful. At
his side upon the platform stood an Inn
mense copper kettle which his waiting
slave had brought him. One By one
the rebelling women came and
squatted about, anxious to hear the
special revelation promised by the
beaming expression upon Abdallah's
face.
Finally, when they had all congre.
gated, Abdullah, in a voice deep with
mystery and awe, commanded that
each woman present should go at once
IN har bor,,a anA tn,rnadfafalv rafurr,
with a jug of milk. The women de-
INJURED. They had come. they said, to
hear the revelation. Abdullah ex-
planned that no revelation was possible
until his command had been obeyed.
and In a few moments two score WON

upon her head. stood before him.
Pour the milk into this kettle" said
Abdullah. with a voice suggestive Of
still greater mystery. yet I'm his eye
was twinkle OF delight which he
could not conceal.
The women filed past the kettle
poured the milk into Il, and returned
TO their places upon the floor before
the great teacher. Abdullah, solemnly
stroking his long beard, looked silent
ly at the foaming camels milk. and
then slowly turned to the wondering
women before him. His mornings dis
course upon the perfect wisdom of
Allah. and the wonderfulness of his
revelations. was prefaced with a Ion.

had he been so eloquent-never had
he spoken with such confidence.

QUARANTINE COUNTY DOGS.

Agent Fulmer of the State Live
Stock Sanitary Board was in Dan
vile Tuesday and established a
state quarantine of all dogs in that
vicinity. This order in no wise
affects the quarantine established by
the Borough but places as we'll the
authority of the state back of the
quarantine.
In view of the fact that the mad
dogs ran amuck in Cooper and Mahon-
ing townships and in Montour town
ship in Columbia County there is a
move on foot to extend the quaran-
tine to these townships. Agent Full
mer looked into conditions there Tues
day. With no Boards of Health
to enforce the quarantine, the duty
devolves upon the School Boards and
if the members agree to enforce the
quarantine, at special meetings
which will be held, the quarantine
will be established.

FORGERY SCHEME WORKED.

Just to disprove the truth of the
saying that there is nothing new
under the sun, something new in the
way of forgeries vas sprung upon the
people of town during the past few
days by a man named Henry Broadt,
the victim Of the forgery being John
Weiliver, Of Leonard street.
Last Friday afternoon strange
man appeared at the office of w. R.
Kocher on Seventh street and order
ed load of coal to be sent to 1877
Railroad street. AS payment for the
coal he presented a check signed
by John Welliver and made out to
Henry Broadt, whom, he said, was
himself. He stated that he was en-
ployed by Mr.. Welliver in his
blacksmith shop. The check was
for $13, and as the cost of the coal
was considerably less than that
amount, Mr.. Sheep, bookkeeper at
the Office, gave him the change which
amounted to several dollars.
A short time afterward the same
man appeared at the Office of W. C.
Richart and ordered a load of coal
sent to the same address as he had
given to Mr.. Sheep and in payment
for the same presented check
for $l2 and received several dollars
in change.
The coal was accordingly loaded on
the wagons and taken to the above
address when it was found that the
house belonged to DR.. Bruner and
that no family was living in the
house.
The check which Mr.. Sheep re-
ceived was taken to the bank i'm
mediately and cashed but the check
received by Mr.. Richart was not pre-
sented until Monday. 1t was then
that the officials of the bank began to
suspicion something wrong. The
check was taken to Mr.. Welliver who
stated that the checks had not been
written by himself and that he knew
of nobody by the name of Henry
Broadt. The signature, however, he
stated was so near like his own that
it could be distinguished only by three
letters in the name which were
made differently from what he made
them.
Mr.. Richart and Mr.. Sheep both
think that they could recognize the
man if they saw him but it is not
likely that they will ever see him, as
there is not the least clew to his
| identity.

THE SPRING ELECTION.
A Proposed Amendment TO The Constitution
That Will Abolish It.

The proposed amendment to the
constitution of Pennsylvania passed
by the Legislature at its last session
will be considered by the next Leg
islature. They should be the sub
ject of free and considerable dis
cussion by the people in the canvass
for the election of members. There
are several ofthese proposed amend
ments, but those which are of the
widest concern to all the people of
the state are the ones providing for
the abolition of the February cleo
ton. If these amendments are
adopted all the elections thereafter,
both for general and municipal Of
ficials will take place in November.
The intention is to so arrange the
tenure of the several officials that
the choice of the state officers, with
congressman and members of the
Legislature, shall fall upon the even
numbered years, while those offic-
ials that are now chosen in Febru-
airy shall be elected in the odd num-
beled years. This is with a view
to still keep the general and munic-
ipal elections separate,

excellent one and Showed much prep
aration.
PROF. sUTLIFF'S PRACTICAL. TALK.
Prof. Sutliff was then called and
gave very practical talk which was
we'll received. He stated that he
had nothing personal to say of the
class of 1908, and that he had no
degrees to offer as is often done in
the colleges but he had choice
variety of advice to give. The Ivy
typifes many things and he expressed
a wish that the class of 1908 might
have many heads that crown of Ivy
might adorn in future years.
lay GRIMES READ WILL.
The class will was well gotten up
and was read by Jay Grimes. He
bequeathed everything the class own
ed to different persons at the school,
including the faculty. He referred
to the money which had been left
by the class for the remodeling of
the grove and making it into a
handsome park.
Following the Ivy song by the
class, the Ivy was planted along side
of the building by Joseph Shovlin.
CLASS DAY EXERCISES.
Before a large and appreciative
audience of parents and others inter
ested in education, the Glass Day eX-
ercises of the class of 1908 held in
Normal auditorium Tuesday evening
proved to be one of the best and most
appreciated numbers on the Com
mencement program.
The stage was beautifully decorat-
ed with large palms and numerous
boquets of cut flowers, while stretch
ed across the front of the stage was
a black banner upon which were in
scribed the words, "Facta non
verba, the class motto, translated
deeds, not words. Around the gallery
was black strip of bunting upon
which hung numerous orange and
black pennants and festoons of orange
artistically draped around the gallery.
While the Normal orchestra was
playing selection the graduating
class marched into the room two by
! two, the officers of the class and those
participating in the program taking
seats on the stage while all others
occupied seats in the front part of
the auditorium. President of the
class, Joseph Shovelin, then gave the
Presidents address in which he ex-
tended hearty welcome to all pre-
sent. After paying glowing tri-
butte to the principal, DR.. d. j..

IVY DAY EXERCISES.

Forming two by two, each carrying
an orange and black pennant and
joined by long chains of daisies,
the class of '08 of the Bloomsbury
Normal School marched to the lower
campus Tuesday afternoon at 8
o'clock where most appropriate Ivy
program was rendered.
DR.. WALLER GAVE GOOD ADVICE.
Joseph Shovlin, president of the
class, acted as chairman of the meet
ing and after few remarks, called
upon DR.. D. j. Waller, who very
happily gave some good, sound advice
to the graduating class. He congratu-
lated the members of the class upon
the success of their efforts and spirit
during the time that he has had their
acquaintanceship. The class has been
a harmonious one and could look back
to their days at the Normal with
unalloyed pleasure. He told them not
to allow the diploma which they
would receive to satisfy them but to
use it as a fourdation upon which to
build higher. The Importance of an
education is greater now than ever
before. Many of the men and women
of influence are those with a college
education. He urged them to get as
high an edcuation as they could pos
sibly attain. In this country you can
go as high as you want to in educa-
tion, it is only a question of deter
mination and sacrifice.
