Daniel I.ntenn and J. D. Illclts,
mid l'rnnk B. McClaln, candidate for Lieu

nifptlng on the street.
Senator Penrose did not reach Altoona
until Kite and did not participate In the
oration tendered Doctor Uriimbaugh by
the citizens of Blair County, the home
county of the Republican candidate for
Governor In the afternoon.
Doctor Diumbaugh said that for 160
joors his ancestors had tilled the soil
of Pennsylvania, obeyed the laws of the
Btnte and tried to live useful lives. Ho
taiil he was proud to bo one of those
people and to bo un expression of them.
He was a cnndldate who waa not pledged
to a slnglo man but to the wholo Com
monwealth. Ho had no political ex
perience, no financial nupport and no
ntedge save that of service to tho public.
In spcaKins oi 10cm upuuu, jjutiur
Brumbaugh said:
"1 shall stand for It to the end. When
the bill for placing this State among
the list of local option once passes the
legislature I shall sign It. That Is whero
I stand, and I will not permit misguided
Individuals to lie about me in thla mat
ter I have made a pledge to myself
thut the moral quality of our civilization
will be seen every where In my adminis
tration." Doctor Brumbaugh also said that no
man could control his public acts.
fc'enatcr Penrose spoke upon the effect
of the Huropean war upon tho prices of
food&lulTs.
Susar was his special theme. He pre
dlited ten-cent sugar. He showed that
It liud advanced within a few weeks from
4 6J to 7.5 cents a pound. This he said
M.is due to the Democratic party Juggling
Tilth tariff rates when It had little ex
perience and did not realize tho effect of
the changes It had made.

YOUNG REPUBLICANS MEET
Club Unanimously Indorses Dr.
Brumbaugh and Senator Penrose.
A meeting of the Pennsylvania Young
Men's Republican Club, composed ot
Jouiis men who will vote for the first
time at the next election, was held to
day in the headquarters of the organiza
tion at the Ilellevue-Stratford. Unanl
nmus indorsement wus given Dr. Martin
Hrumbuugh and United States Sen
atoi Holes Penrose.
Jo.-epij h. Howay, president of the club,
preslUid. and about 100 members at
tended the meeting. It was announced
that a dlnnr U to be held at the hotel
rld4y evening, October 2, at which both
oetor Brumbaugh and Senator Penrose
w"l peak,
Anti-Liqor Forces Allege Funds
Were Contributed for Primary.
That the liquor Interests of this State
hivo contributed $1,000,000 to tho Penrose
primary campaign funds Is the state
ment made by the antl-llquor forces In a
letter to Senator Kern, chairman of the
Senate Privileges and Elections Commit
tee, received In Washington last night.
It is further alleged that these Interests
have urged the proposed Investigation of
their books because their contributions to
the Penrose fund have been made quietly
from saloonkeepers, distillers and brew
ers, and have been forwarded to tho fund
without being registered. Tho antl
liquor forces estimate that an assessment
of $23 has been made on each saloon
keeper by the Federation of Liquor Deal
ers, which would produce about $275,000,
und that tho remainder of the sum has
been raised by contributions from man
ufacturers. That slmllnr methods to those now be
ing followed by the Penrose Interests are
disclosed In an affidavit, which has been
filed In Harrlsburg by one of the liquor
Interest men who worked In the Tener
campaign, la another statement made In
the letter received by Senator Kern. This
ntlidavlt, It Is declared, shows that $200 -OXi
was raised by a per capita tax on
each brewer and distiller, tt Is alleged
that no receipts were given for the
money, nor were any entries made In
thu association's books, but It passed
through the hands of one man to Sen
r.tnr I'enrosp or Harry V. Baker, who
was secretary of the Republican State

JOY-RIDING PRISONERS MUST
REVERT TO COMMON PATROL
Pleasurable Ride to Lock-up Blamed
for Avalanche of Offenders,
Joy riding among the regular week
end boarders at the Oennantown police
station came to an end today. Disturbers
of tho peace will no longer be taken to
the lock-up in the latest improved tour
ing car. Beginning Monday they will
have to be content to go In an ordinary
patrol.
When the official wagon was put out
of buklmbs serernl weeks ugo by an ac
cident, Fire Marshal William Coupe, who
Is an ardent Germantown citizen. Imme
diately offered his automobile. Those
who are in a habit of coming to the
police station every Saturday Immediately
bpread the news, and very soon the po
lite had more petty offenders than ever.
It was noticeable, too, that the driver
took the riders to the station house in
u roundabout way.
Incidentally. Magistrate Pennock who
conducts the hearings in Germantuwn,
found that the cases hare Increased
threefold since the auto began serving
us a patrol, while the charges were io
slight that three-fourths of the prison
ers were discharged. In fact, things
reached such a stage that the approach
of the touring car very often was the
signal for an Impromptu fight In the
street. When the lighters were gathered
In they klmpl) chuckltd and would lean
back like millionaires.
That's why the police believe that the
arrival of the regular wagon will work
a reform in Germantown.
A vigorous indictment of the Pcnrose-Vare-McNIchol
machine was made today
by Representative T. Henry AVuInut, In
a statement showing tho methods re
sorted to by tho machine's representa
tives hi the Legislature In throttling the
child labor bill, which, he said, had the
support of every right-thinking man in
Pennsylvania. Mr. Walnut declared the
acts of the last State Senate, which was
dominated by Penrose, were only the leg
islative expression of what Penrote and
his henchmen and the Interests they
serve stand for.
HOUSI3 mhU A MODEL.
Mr. Walnut's statement reads:
"The child labor bill, as It passed the
House, was a measure that would have
placed Pennsylvania aiming those States
of the Union that had seen the necessity
for conserving the lives and health of
the children of the community, and would
have laid down regulations for tho pur
pose of accomplishing this end.
"The bill was referred to the Commit
tee on Judiciary Special, presided over
by Senator Charles A. Snyder, of Schuyl
kill County, who frankly represented
those Interests who hnd long dominated
Pennsylvania Legislatures and had al
ways obstructed the passage of child
labor legislation. The bill passed the
House on the 15th of April, and wns re
ferred to the Committee on Judiciary
Special of tho Senate on .the following
day. It was then expected that the Leg
islature would adjourn not latei than
tho third or fourth week In May, and
presumably the intention was to kill the
bill by holding it in committee until too
late to pass It prior to adjournment.
"A henrlng was finally held on the
meayiiie about the middle of May. The
question of adjournment was then im
minent. No report was made by tho
committee, however, until June 4, and
it was not until June 23 that the bill was
finally passed, In the meantime a, num
ber of spirited efforts had been made
to fix a date for the adjournment of the
Legislature, nono of which had, how
ever, sutcecded, In part because of the
Insistence of the House that the child
labor bill and several other measures of
Importance then in the Senate should
be properly eonsldered before adjourn
ment. BK.NATR CHANGES FATAL.
"The bill as It passed the Senate had
been ami ndtd so as to .eliminate the
fundamental features of the measure In
Its original fotm, which were the lim
itation of the hours of labor of children
between the ages of II and 16 to eight
hours a day and 4S hours a week ami
the elimination of night work The bill
as It passed the Senate provided for a
teii-lumr day and a 51-hour week and
contained what Is known as the 'Glass
Exemption Claute" lu the provision re-
'ectInK night work of childien. so that
the existing law as to night worl; was
not affected. In addition to these ch.ingeb
numerous exceptions had been Inserted
In the mcaeure which represented back
ward tteps In the existing child labor
law.
"The House refused to concur In the
amendments and a great cffoit was made
to prevail upon the Senate to recede In
part from Its position. Senator Snyder,
however, who represented Senator Pen
rose In Schuylkill County, very emphat
ically declined to make any alterations
whatever. Although he modified his po
sition slightly, ho refused to .withdraw
from any of the important positions taken
by thu Senate, and the bill us presented
to the House was no better than the
ixUtlns child labor legislation, nnd. in
some particulars was wore than the ex-l-tltiK
law.
"The Organisation controlling tho Sen
ate, representing j-orno of the manufac
turers of Pennsylvania und all of the
liquor Interests of Pennsylvania, thereby
succeeded lu defeating the passage of
the child labor legislation of the session
of 101J."
SHARP AUTUMN BREEZE

Wild Search for Winter Togs by Polk
Who Sweltered Yesterday.
What la that sharp, Incessant nulto llko a far

'Tla the chatter of teeth of freezing men grow
ing tho rh'ntlsts' crop;
And what Is that burning odor now this brac
ing day of Kail?
'TIs out of the woolen you-know-whats antl
due to the camphor ball.
For bluff ohl roaring Ilurcaa Is here with a
snappy breeze.
And 5oon the town will Join his tong ith thu
old-tlmu Autumn sneeze.
Men shivering In their leneo lengths and
searching through a collection of fur
coats, latje curtains und a bewildering ar
lay of other things for the woolens hid
den In the bottom uf the chest tcstllled
today to the tenlblo roYonge taken by the
weatlu r for the unkind things said about
It within the last week.
Today is not as cold compared to con
ditions Just south of the Arctic Circle,
but the breeze that came out of the north
or wherever it came from tills morning
.struck Philadelphia llko a blizzard blast.
The city was unpiepared.
Two days ago eveiy one icrspiied save
those sufficiently well-to-du to hire a
chauffeur for the he,vy work of running
the motorcar. Yesterday the unseason
able heat abated somewhat and Phila
delphia, blissfully unconscious of what
was In store, heaved a sigh of relief und
felt more comfcrtable.
Conductors who have nothing to do with
it were denounced today for keeping open
tho windows of trolley cars; the same
conductors who were made tho butt of
sarcastic remarks two days ago because
there was no circulation of air.
If camphor fumigates, then the trolley
cars of this city are perfectly sanitary.
Vearly every man who tangoed Into a
car this morning wns surrounded by a
sharp, pungent odor supposed to keep
off the Industrious moth. Men without
the camphor hazo shivered violently The
fumes came from the winter garments
folk hastily donned this morning. Fur
naces that havo been sleeping the long
sleep ot summer were rudely awakened
this morning. All were covered with
Inches of soot, and their pipes and rusty
dourt, .worked badly.
Altogether, the day was ono to cheer
up the pessimistic dentist. Teeth may
not chatter unendingly without harm.
Also the doctors looked worried and mut
tered feats for chronic-cold patients.

PEERS INTO WINE BARREL;
HALF HIS MUSTACHE GOES
Alcohol Fumes Explode When Oerati
Uses Lighted Match.
Removing one's mustache by alcohol
fumes Is not exactly painless. 'lyiis Is
vouched for by John Geratl, 910 Fitz
water street.
. Geratl has a well-stocked wine cellar
and early this morning he paid the place
a visit. It was dark, so he lighted a
match while peering Into a barrel of
tempting liquid. In a moment a Hash
followed and when the smoke cleared
Geratl had lost half his flowing mus
tache. His faco was slightly scalded, so
he went to the Pennsylvania Hospital.
The doctors told him that the other
half of the mustache would have to be
removed nlso. "Can't you patch It up
somehow?" he asked. Hut the phjslclans
said "no." "I don't mind tho burns so
much," wailed Geratl, "but I grieve for
my lost mustache."
Tho Lu Lu Mystic Sluiners went to At
lantic City by auto today. There the
Phlladelphlans Joined 20,000 other Shrlners
from Baltimore, Washington, Wilming

other way stations are represented.
This afternoon on the beach at the
foot of Kentucky avenue several thou
sand Shrlners of tho various drill corps
competed for prizes. The Boardwalk
wus lined with the ladles of the knights
who cheered the winners.
In conjunction with paying due honors
to a princess who has generally been
forgotten the Lu Lus held an automobile
run to Atlantic City. One hundred and
three touring cars und speed machines
got away from Lu Lu Temple, Broad and
Spring Garden streets, this morning at
10 o'clock.
Tho Lu Lus every now and then feel
that It Is tlmo to honor some one. They
dig back through dusty tomes and Hnd a
king, a princess, or a little queen who
whs some figure in his or her day.
Pilnccss Fntima lost her eyesight come
years ago by deep study of books which.
In her time, were made with a chisel on
a slab of stone. Mohammed, her brother,
was told by a fortune teller, who lived
on tho Race btreet of his home town,
that a trip to the Red Sea would benefit
the Princess.
Tho tilp was taken und Miss Fatlrna r--ignlned

Ujhe Red Sea, so they chose the Atlantic
Wcean, where it washe.i against the onlv
broad walk as a terminus of their pil
grimage. W. Freeland Kendrick, who once upon
a time waded across the Delaware with
other disciples to show contrition of
spirit, headed the pilgrimage this morn
ing. Ry the way. High Potentate Ken
drick and his followers did not actunlb
wndo the Delaware that time. They
took off their shoes, paid three tents
for ferry tickets and bribed a deckhand
to turn a fire hose on their bare feet
as the boat crossed the river.
Trains tu Atlantic City this morning
carried the families and friends of the j
i..u wja us wen us me men wiio had not
entered their machines in the contest.
At the shore tho guests either lined up
along the highway to rce the gasoline
tourists arrive or sought the salt water
taffy stands. It was a bit cool for bath
ing. The drill on the beach was the big
show. Lu Lu Temple delegation, 1500
strong, was headed by Its own band on
horseback. It was Its first mounted nn
pearance. The horses did not effect the
music. The band played a gallop in a
realistic way while the horses turkey
trotted skittishly. y

She is a real member of Bount Lodce of

For several hours today, Paul Fittcry,
pitcher of tho Cincinnati baflcball team,
feared Hint ho would not be ahlr to nld
Ills tenm In this afternoon's struggle with
the Phillies. A warrant charging him
with desertion nnd nonsupport caused his
detention at detective headquarters at
Cltj Hall.
Alter much trouble he wns finally lib
erated through tho efforts of J'huI Ban
eioft, secretary of the Cincinnati club,
who succeeded In getting the American
Bonding and Surety Company to go lot
tery's security.
The pitcher's breakfast was disturbed
this morning fit the Majestic Hotel by
the arrival of Detectives Hurbildgo and
Mnrki?, of Clt Hall, who presented him
with a wairant Just ns he was sampling
his sliced peaches.
This was the climax to a romnnco
which began fn Pottsvllle, I.i three
r,trs-fgo. There Fittcry, Just budding
out us n pitcher, met it pretty trained
nurse, Viola by name, and she fieiiuontly
chceicd him as he struck out opposing
b,ttsmn In tho minors.
Three months ago, according to Mrs.
Fittcry, her husband left her abruptly
and gave no explanation. She swore
out u warrant for his arrest Im
mediately, but sv the Cincinnati team
has not bc-en here since, tho warrant could
not be s,rved until today.

SHIPPERS TOLD HOW TO SAVE
Pennsylvania Railroad Shews Way
to Obtain Lower Freight Rates.
Shippers who are In the habit of pack
ing their goods In bulk consignments
havo received Instructions from the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company as to
how low freight rates may be obtained.
"By packing goods In boxes or bar
rels," the Instruction reads, "the shipper
would not be charged on the basis of the
minimum weight for a car, but for tho
actual weight, which would bo much
less than the carload rate."
