NEWS OF STEE LTON
BOROUGH COUNCIL ACCEPTS
THE NEWLY P,".VEO STREETS
The New Lighting Plan Was Referred
Back to Committee—Traffic Ordi
nance Not Reported for Public Dis
cussion—Members Donate S7OO
In the absence of President Revn
ders tbe local Borough Councilmen ac
complished very little last evening but
hear reports and to refer an important
matter to committee, which was done iu
the case of the new lighting system,
this delay being caused, however, when
it became known that the Harrisburg
Light and l'ower Company wanted a
live-year contract, instead of an agree
ment lasting but oue year.
At a previous meeting between the
Town Property and the Finance com
mittees of Council with a representative
of the light company the location of
the lights had been settled.
A call for the trafiic ordinance in
troduced by Burgess Wigtield in a com
munication failed to get it out of the
hards of the borough Ordinance com
mittee, but Chairman Shelley, of that
committee, made the statement that this
ordinance would oe presented at the
next meeting of Council,
The more than 40,000 yards of street
paving laid this fall was formally ac
cepted. The snow ordinance, intro
duced last spring by Councilman Wag
enbach, which has been slumbering in
committee all summer and fall, was
pressed to the front when tbe sponsor
of the bill was reminded by the present
fall of' the beautiful of his pet meas
ure. In reply to Councilman Wagen
bach, Councilman Henderson, of the
(Highway Committee, said the ordinance
would be ready for action at the next
meeting of Council and that the Har
risburg Railways Company, which is
largely involved in the provisions of
the bill, had assured him that any snow
fall during the time that the ordinance
is pending would l be taken care of by
the company.
A feature, of the meeting was a col
lection taken from members of the
Council to defray a bill owing the bor
ough by a poor family and which had
been presented at the meeting for the
purpose of having the borough fathers
exonerate the debtors. The amount in
vilved was $7.
The request for an exoneration had
come through the Associated Charities
and was presented by Councilman Hen
derson, a member of the Charities com
mittee.
The collection from the members will
be turned over to the committee han
dling the charity work.

FRANK HAS ONLY ONE CHANCE
Highest Court Against Him, He Must
Look to Governor
Atlanta, Ua., Dec. B.—Refusal of the
Cnifed States Supreme Sourt yesterday
to grant a writ of eiror for review of
the case of Leo M. Frank brought an
announcement from Solicitor General
Hugh M. Dorsev here that immediate
steps would be taken to have a new
date set for Frank's execution for the
murder of 14-year-old Marv I'hagan.
The Solicitor General will appear be
fore Superior Judge Benjamin H. Hill J

directing that Frank be produced fori
resentence. Judge Hill then is expect-!
Ed to set the time for bringing the
prisoner into court.

DEMOCRATICOUfIRTERS HERE
ARE REDUCED 10 2 ROOMS
Main Offlces Have Been Removed to
Philadelphia but Will Be Brought
Back to This City When the State
Fight Starts in 1016
To all intents and purposes, so far
as the trunsaction of business is con
cerned, the Democratic State Commit
tee headquarters in the Spooner build
ing, Market Square, are closed. And
yet they are not closed, for there will
always be somebody in charge, and
when the big campaign of 1916 opens
up the Harrisburg State headquarters
will again be opened and the work all
done there.
When State Chairman. Morris was
here last week he announced that the
State headquarters would be removed
to Philadelphia, to occupy offices at
14 7 South Broad street, which served
as a branch during the
campaign that closed on November 3.
Arrangements were at once made for
the removal, and all of the books, pa
pers and part of the office equipment,
including former Secretary Jim Blakes
lee's easy chair; the desk* of State
Chairman Morris and various other
historical impedimenta, were shipped
to Philadelphia. That was the extent
of the moving. Since 1892 the State
headquarters of the Democratic commit
tee had always been located in Har
risburg.
The rooms in Market Square have
all been given up but two —there were
eight at ono time—and these will be
occupied by Secretary Warren Van-
Dyke, who intends to retain his resi
dence in Harrisburg. He seeks the po
sition of Collector of Internal Reve
nue, which he is said to have a light
good chance of getting. The Philadel
phia headquarters will be in charge of
Robert T. Keenan, of that city. The
Harrisburg headquarters will always
l)e open, with some one on hand to
hand out information, if there is any to
hand out.
The next regular meeting of the
Democratic State Committee will not
be held until June, 1916, when a new
State Chairman will be elected, but the
State Chairman, uinier the rules, enu
call a special meeting at any time he
sees proper. Mr. Morris will, therefore,
be the State Chairman until June,
1916. As there will be no state'ofticors
to elect in 1915 the committee will
not be over crowded with work. In
1916 the State headquarters will be re
move.! back to Hnrrisburg to take up
| the work uf the Presidential campaign.

If you are using Hard Nut try the Coal Mixed

PEARLS FOUND IN GUTTER
New York, Dec. B.—The SIO,OOO
I pearl necklace lost by Mrs. W. K. Van
berbilt last Friday was recovered yes
[ terday. It was found by J. J. Colling,
[ a clerk in the New York Central offices,
i Friday afternoon in the gutter. He
carried it in his pocket three days.
I He had' no idea of the value of it.
When he read the advertisement he
took it to Mr. Vanderbilt's office in
the Grand Central building and recov
ered a reward of SSOO, the amount
promised.
The necklace was lost from a cab in
front of the Kitz-C'urlton hotel.
This plea of the " inevitableness of
war" reminds one of the old fashioned
explanation of an automobile accident
t'hat it "could no*t have beeu avoided."
