Although Doctor Aiidermm clhl not men

permon in the afternoon ami evening, he
made It plain that the chuieh people
would not be do. nil their duty If the
lulled to exeiiise thrlr right of nuffraae

The people ha" been so aroused hv
Doctor Anderson that plans for an active

the re-elpctlon of I'enrrwp. who has the
backing of the saloon Interests, ore be

Following lost night's meeting, men as
sembled on almost every sticot corner

tabernacle, and dlcuscd the battle
against th saloon In the prcent cam
paign. Many of the church members, w ho
have been supporters of Senator Penrose,
liave been turned against him through
Doctor Anderson's argument that thev
should tight thp saloon, and cannot be
faithful as Christiana If th'y will not
use their Influence to defent candidates
who are linked up with the distiller nnd
brewers.
So enthusiastic have many of the
cliurch workers become that, by request
of many. Doctor Anderson will again re
peat the sermon he preached against

meeting. The reople of Coatesville want
to drive the saloon from the town again,
never to see It return, and during the
remaining five weeks the churches are
to be closed nnd the people of all de

PENROSE WORKERS WORRIED
BY DEMOCRAT'S STATEMENT
They Have "Signally railed" to
Register a Dig Vote, Says Morris.
Republican organization worker were
consldetably worried today over n state
ment made bv Chairman Morris, of tho
Democratic State Committee, which in
effect was that they had "signally falt'd"
lo bring out and register n largo Penrose
vote trpltinlnaty to the approaching fall
election.
Mr. Mofrls said his n?ertlon was based
on a comprehensive study of teglstrallnn
returns ftom all pans or lVnns.vlvnnla.
nhd from a statistical standpoint alone he
was unable to iee how Penrose could
ftvdd being swept out of olllce by a
crushing defeat at the polls.
The Democratic chairmen said the or
ganUitlon workers' effotl was particu
larly futile In the large cities, where thev
attempted to register n Wi; Penrose vote
to offset n rural animosity ngnlnst Stand

"In this then signally fulled snld .Mr.
Morris, "and decency and rloin govern
ment will prevail against all dark ways
of the machine "
He said the Victory Would be complete
when voteis who hud the Intel ests of their
country at hort went to thi polls on
i lection day Discussing the situation In
Philadelphia, Mr Morrl? said!
"A inrgi iculstrntlon In Philadelphia
ItiVirlV'lv means a havv vote against

that the anti-ltepuhltcnn registration, In

Two hundred musicians of
world-wide fame tell you to
buy a Pianola Player-Piano
and no other.
These musicians among whom are numbered
Paderewski, de Pachmann, Hofmann and Rosenthal
do not recommend the purchase of a "player-piano";
they do recommend the purchase of a "Pianola" Piano,
because they realize that it is the only artistic player
attachment.
A "Pianola" Piano is a player-piano; but all
player-pianos are not Pianola Pianos.
Heppe's have been the Philadelphia agents for the Pianola
ever since it was first invented. The first Pianola sold in Philadelphia
is still giving excellent service. Why experiment when you can buy
a genuine Pianola at Heppe's at prices no higher than those asked
Jor inferior imitations $550 up.

British War Office Orders Seizure
of Cross-Channel Filers.
LONDON, Oct 10. The authorities In
tend to confiscate or kill all plseons owned
by alien enemies In England. This strong
action follows upon Information supplied
to tho War OfTice recently by A pigeon
expert.
"Tho Germans have for years been
tiainlng pigeons to 'fly from Englnnd,"
snld tho editor of the Racing Pigeon re
ccntly, "Thelf Government subsidizes
lofts of pigeons, which are kept In varl
oua places, Including tho forts. Theso
pigeons have no doubt been used by spies
for many years.
"A pigeon has flown 600 miles In ten
hours. Every effort must he mado to
kill n bird seen living ncross the North
Sen. It might bo quite as Important for
the crew of a warship to bring It down
as for them to hit an aeroplane. Tho
ring on an English bird bears the letters
'N. U.,' but these letters do not nppear
on foreign birds..
"Since the outbreak of war detectives
have vlrlted a numbor of lofts nnd hnvo
compelled German owners to kill every
bird lirthelrprescncc. Many birds arc
worth 10 each."
