NEWS OF S
AIL BUT ONE COUNCILMAN
VOTE TO RETAIN JONES!
Vction of the Steelton Coum.il in Re
instating Suspended Policeman Is
Taken Despite the Opposition of
Burgess Wigfield
Borough Council put one over 011
Burgess Wiglieid last evening, when,
with but oue dissenting voice, it was
decided to retain Patrolman Jones, who
was suspended in July by the Burgess,
reinstated in August by the Police com
mittee of Council, given a two weeks'
vacation a short time ago and will now
be back 011 the job.
The causes assigned by Burgess Wig
field when he ti rat suspended the police
man were insubordination and appear
ing for duty while under the influence
of liquor. After the Police committee
of Council had given the suspended
bluccoat a hearing it reinstated him.
The matter was finally brought to the
attention of Council and it was decided
by that body, after an opinion from
Borough Solicitor Wickersham, that the
Hist proceedings were unlawful and or
dered another investigation made by
the Police committee. The action ta
ken last night was upon the report of
the ti tidings of the committee at its
last examination.
Last night Chairman Nelley, of the
Police committee, ventured his opinion
that James Gordon and William Lick
man. two of the witnesses, were preju
diced against the patrolman, that a for
eign witness was excited when the
events on which he testified occurred
and that another witness furnished tes
timony that bad no bearing on the
case. He also criticised the methods
used by the Burgess ;u gathering evi
dence against Jones. The foreigner,
who was said to have been excited,
was the bridegroom at a wedding, dur
ing the celebration of which some of
the offenses were said to have been
committed.
During this celebration. Chairman
Nelley said, there were more iutoxi
cauts than were sold in any hotel in
the borough in two weeks. The '' re
freshments,'' he said, included 15 bar
rels of !beer, eight eases of bottled beer
snd J3S.SO worth of whiskey.
Councilman Wagenbach asked why
there were four policemen at the wed
ding celebration and why was it nec
essary for any of them to go into the
cellar. "Something is not quite
right," he said.
A vote on tlu' motion of Chairman
Nelley to retain the patrolman was ta
kon and the only dissenting vote audi
ble was that of Councilman Reisch.
Following the vote Burgess Wigfield,
given the privilege of the floor, de
clared :
"I want efficiency and the taxpayers
wan: efficiency iu the police force, and
T never thought that I would have to
fight so hard 10 get it. I want to say
that I am going \o control the police
department and have efficiency if it is
the last thing I do on earth."
In his report last evening Fire Chief
Shupp recommended that some arrange
ment should be made with the commis
sioners of Swata - . a township to pay the
local fire department for its services
,in giving fire protection tr> the town
ship districts adjoining the borough.
The sense of his communication was
that, although tie local tiremen have al
ways been willing to fight tires in the
township districts, they have received
no assistance from the township and,
on the contrary, have been hindered iu
their operations.
In recent years the local department
has handled several big tires on Mohn
street, in Swatara township, and at
one. of these fires it was necessary for
the tiremen to turn a stream into the
crowd to prevent the onlookers from
standing on the hose and hampering
them. A copy of the {.art of the tire
chief's report bearing on the matter
will be sent to the township commis
sion.
Tiie ordinance establishing a grade
on Reading strec- between Pine street
and Adams street was passed on second
reading. The traffic ordinance and the
ordinance providing for the removal of
snow were reported still in the hands of
committees. The proposed changes
in the system on street lighting -were
not taken up last evening.
Councilman Henderson reported that
the street paving had been about com
pleted and that .1 few details yet re
mained to be added. The work has
proven satisfactory and will be accept
ed when these details are finished.

COUNCIL AND MAYOR CONFER
Chief Zimmerman Advocates Special
Policemen at Places of Amusements
Lebanon. Nov. 10.—Councilman anil
Mayor John P. Lcingenceker mi.l Po
lii-e Chief John G. Zimmerman yester
day discussed the need of special po
licemen in this city. It was advocat
ed by Chief Zimmerman that special
policemen be placed 011 duty at all
places of amusement and pointed to the
fact that iu the majority ot' cities pa
trolmen are stationed at theatre en
trances and in some places arc on duty
in dance halls.
It is the idea of Chief Zimmerman
to regulate fare dancing in a manner
similar to that employed iu a number
of cities where the plan has worked out
successfully. This would mean that girls
under a certain age would not be al
lowed in a dance hall and that dancing
would be regulated.

SERIOUS CATARRH
YIELDS TO HYOMEI
Also One of tbe Bast Remedies for
Head Colds or Bronchitis
Be wise in time and use llyoiuei at
the tirst symptom of catarrh, such as
frequent colds, constant frog in the
throat, difficult breathing or disagree
able nasal discharges. Do not let the
disease become deep-seated for it often
causes the logs of hearing.
llyomei is nature's true remedy for
catarrh—you breathe it so that flie
medication goes right to the sore and
inflamed tissues lining the air passages
of the head and throat- Its antiseptic
healing must begin at once.
It's no bother to use Hyomei. Sim
ply put a few drops of the liquid into
the inhaler, that comes with every com
plete outfit, and breathe it. You will
feel better after the first breath of
Hyomei. It clears the head and throat
like magic.
There is nothing easier, quicker or
more satisfying Uian Hyomei. It is not
merely a relief For catarrh but a sure
and lasting benefit. H. C. Kennedy sells
Hyomei on the guarantee of money
back if it does not cure. Adv.

Week's Bill at Vaudeville House Is
Chockfull of Merriment—"The
Lawn Party" a Feature That Es
pecially Helps the Fun-making
The bill ntythe Orpheum theatre this
week has no tears, no melodrama, noth
ing heavy; but it is chockfull of laughs.
Indeed, it provides one of the beet, if
not the best, vaudeville entertainment
offered to Ilurrisburg this season. There
is not a dull moment at any time and
"something new'' is served up almost
every minute.
There is much ground for argument
as to what is the best attraction, but
"The Lawn Party,," a review, with a
number of capable, although juvenile,
actors and singers, has a good claim to
first plaie. It is a. happy combination
of horseplay, dancing and take-offs in
the big stage stars. Willintn J. Doolev.
featured in the act, is as funny a
ground tumbler as Orpheum patrons
have seen for years and in the role
of an intoxicated tango teacher creates
an uproar of merriment.
Ruth Rove, who "does a single' r in
front of a "drop," comes fully up to
expectations based on the advertise
ments. Her long run of her act in the
Palace in New York proved that the
vaudeville world thinks something of
her and her appearance here clinched
.lie argument, ller songs are new and
rendered : n a catchy way. The song.
"The War iu Schneider's Grocery
Store," in which the Bismarck herring
push the French peas off the shelf,
while the frankfurters, the "dogs of
war," " waof, woof" around
is a delightful absurdity.
Old friends, the Collins and Steele, |
a trio in which the male Collins goes |

again and are very clever in their new
net. The star i> remembered for his
abundance of blond hair, which falls in

The home was beautifully decorated

vember 7, 1864, he was married to
Miss Eliza A. Rank, a native of Dau
phin county, in Palmyra, by the Rev.

"PIN-DROP SCHOOLS"
ARE RAPPED 111 INSTITUTE
Professor Albert Tells Teachqro He Is
Opposed to tbe Idea of Too Much
Quiet in the Classroom—.'too At
tend Morning Session
At this morning's session of the
Dauphin County Teachers' Institute
there were 305 touchers present when
the devotional exercises opened the
meeting. The exorcises were led by
the Rev. H. W. Herman, pastor of Zioti
Lutheran church. The music was con
ducted by Professor Harelerode who
will have charge ot' the music for the
entire week.
Miss Johnson gave the first talk of
the day. Her subject was "Reading to
ljearn." She said that children should
be taught to read the daily newspaper
and to pick out the parts that are real
ly worth reading. She said that the
newspapers print lots of things that are
not tit for any person to read and there
fore care should be taken in selecting
the proper news. She also said that
teachers should help the children make
their selection of light, reading so that
while it would bo a relaxation for them
it would also benefit them.
An interesting talk on "The Three-j
fold Nature of the Child" was given I
by Professor Albert. He said it is!
really a crime for any person to have
to uso medicine of any kind, whether!
it is the fault of the persou himself or l
that of his ancestors. Ho spoke very I
strongly against what he called the
"pin drop school." It is his opinion
that a school should have lots of life
and should not be run on the same
principle as a funeral. He advised
•teachers to give their piipils brauch
work that is practical and not to have
them learn a "lot of useless stuff"
that will be of no possible benefit to
them in the world, for the sake of
'' mental development.''
The last speaker on the program for
the morning session was Dr. Barbour,
his subject being "The Problem in
English Composition." Before he start
el to talk on his subject he remarke I
that for several years he could not be
induced to speak before institutes in
Pennsylvania as he had heard that the
teachers attended institute with the
idea of being told a lot of stories and
this was something that he refused to
do: but he said that since lie has been
talking to teachers' institutes in this
J State lie finds that, the teachers of
; Pennsylvania are the most attentive in
the United States. This remark was
received with much enthusiasm.
The use of a little common sense, he
said, is the best way to induce chil
dren to write compositions willingly.
He advised the teachers to always
some thing, in a composition, as
constant adverse criticism takes the
heart out of a pupil.
This afternoon Dr. Barbour gave an
other talk, his subject being "Can Lit
erature Be Taught?"
Professor Mairs made his first speech |
before the institute this afternoon, |
"Agriculture Below the High School."!
Professor Mairs will talk on some topic!
dealing with agriculture every after-!
noon of institute. "Map-drawing—ltsj
Place and Purpose," was discussed bv'
Professor Albert. The Rev. Harrv Xel- \
sou. Bassler will conduct the devotional I
exercises to-morrow and some very in-j
teresting talks are on the program. !

For That
Big Furnace
You need our Wilkes-Barre Egg coal.
Wilkes-Barre Egg coal we especially recommend
tor Hot Air furnaces.
You know with a hot air furnace you «r»»t the
warmth directly from the coal and the more heat
you have in the furnace, why the cozier your rooms
will be.
The larger the coal the more heat you will get and
the longer it lasts.
If the fire box is not so large you will find Wilkes-
Barre Egg and Pea mixed will do very well. Egg
and Pea mixed eost $5.85 instead of $6.45, the price
of all Egg size.
