MOVIES TO WIN VOTES
FOR TRANSIT LOAN
Novel Method of Awakening
Public Interest Devised by
Committee.
A novel method of awakening public
Interest In the 6,00O,OOO transit loan to be
voted at tho Bpeclat election next Thurs
day lias been naoptcu in uer
mantown and Chestnut Hill.
Special lantern slides point
ing; out the benefits of the
comprehensive elevated sys
tem and lemlndlne the
voters that they owe It to their city
to co to the polls, have been prepared
nd these wilt be shown In a number of
mollon-plcluro houses In that section for
three evenings next week.
The Idea was orlRlnated by the sub
committee of the Cominltteo of 10M In
the 22d Ward, and the slides are being
Brerared under the direction of William
11 Emhatdt, of 6521 Qermantown avenue,
chairman of tho committee. The motion
picture houses In which the slides are to
, ihown will be announced later.
Members of the Committee of 1000 said
today that they were encountering but
tllght opposition to tho loan In their In
dividual canvass of the voters. Tho one
rreat danger, however, they pointed out,
was tho apathy nnd Indifference of many
of the voters, who seem to think that
plenty of other men will go to tho polls,
to they will not tako the trouble to do
o themselves.
An overwhelming vote for tho loan, tho
committeemen declare, Is the only thing
which will Insure n prompt beginning on
the work, even after the loan Is passed.
A light and scattering vote, they say.
would Justify tho obstructionists in
Councils to continue their program of de
lay and fall to float tho loan and appro
priate the money until they have recon
vened after the summer recoBs.
Harry Kuenzcl, superintendent of elec
tions for the County Commissioners, has
received the ballots from the printers. In
accordance with the provisions of tho
election laws more than half a million had
to be printed. The ballots are uniform
In size and In printing, except In the 23th,
27th and 35th Wards where Councllmen
are to be elected to fill vacancies.
Th United Business Men's Association,
nueting at the Hotel Bingham last night,
reaffirmed Its pledge of support to tho
16,000,000 transit loan by repudiating a
minority committee report which char
acterized the proposed loan as "a piece
meal measure, unfair to W per tent, of
tho city's population."
In a lengthy report the minority com
mittee sought to have '"the United Busi
ness Men go on record against support
ing the JC.000,000 loan at the special elec
tion next Thursday, on the ground that
Councils had so emasculated the original
Taylor plan that It would be better to
reject the proposed loan and begin the
fight again. The report, however, was
tabled.
GERMANTOWN BAKERY
RAIDED BY VANDALS
Wanton Destruction of Property
1 Marks Their Visit. "
The regular monthly raid of the
Butchers and Bakers' Destructive So
ciety was held today In tho bakery of J.
B. Zoller, at 501C Germantown avenue.
After forcing open a icar window, the
vandals assembled around the dough
trough and filled the dough with water.
They then threw a number of lemons In
the dough and finally pasted the dougn
around tho celling.
It was then decided to empty many
boxes of fresh stiawberrles on the lloor
and these wero used as carpet to soften
tha sounds of the intruders as they
mixed up various flavors of Ice cream
Some of the ice crenm was pasted up
against the ceiling and made a harmon
ious contrast with tho dough. All kinds
of mixed cakes were scattered around
the lloor and relieved the hue of the
strawberries. Some very effective de
signs were created in this manner.
The bakery Is only 100 yards from the
Germantown police stntlon.
The society formerly held its meetings
In the butcher shop adjoining the Zollei
bakery, but with the arrival of spring th
taste of the members turned to things ar
tistic. No objection to tho change of
headquarters has been made by the
butcher.

ORPHANS TO CIRCUS
AS GMBEL GUESTS
3000 to Drink Pink Lemonade,
Feed Elephants nnd Laugh at
Clowns' Antics.
About 3000 youngsters who haven't any
suspicion of what Is to happen next Mon
day afternoon are to have tfto time of
their lives nt the big circus of Barnum &
Bailey, 19th and Hunting Park avenue.
They are to go as the guests of Glmbel
Brothers, under the special care of Ellis
A. Glmbel, head of the big department
store.
The children are the wards of orphan
ages and foster homes In this city. Tak
ing them to the circus apparently has be
come nn nnnual affair on the part or
Glmbel Brothers, who last year took S000
of the little ones to the big lent city for
nn afternoon of real fun.
The mere Beating of tho children at the
circus is not lo concludo the efforts of
the big store to entertain them. About
fifteen barrels of candy, popcorn and
other goodies will bo distributed. The
best scats will be provided, from which
the little boys and girls may see every
thing.
Most children whose parents cannot af
ford to take them to the circus see
some of It In the streets, but this privi
lege Is denied the orphans save when the
big parade happens to pass the Institu
tions. They are denied that rare pleasure
of childhood, following the procession for
blocks nnd blocks, laughing at the antics
of the clowns and getting within a few
feet of tho elephants, despite the police.
So Glmbel Brothers are to remedy this
for tho llttto orphans. The start will be
made from each home whose Inmates are
sent early enough next Monday after
noon to get them to tho circus In time
for everything. They will be shown the
freaks In the side shows and then placed
In the choice sections of tho big tent.

ROUND TRIP
DOGS TO BE KILLED
. TO CHECK EPIDEMIC
Authorities Say They Spread
Foot-and-Mouth Disease
Among Hogs "Downtown."
Two vantonds of dogs were picked up
on the streets In the foot-and-mouth dis
ease area at 31st and Mifflin streets today
to prevent the sprend of the disease
among the piggeries. The dogs will bo
taken to the pound and killed by the So
clcty for the Prevention of Cruelty tc
Animals. They constituted one of tho
most dangerous carriers In the segregated
district, according to Inspectors.
Hundreds of hogs Infected with foot
and mouth disease wero segregated from
tho animals that have not yet shown
symptoms of the disease In tho piggeries
In tho "Neck" this morning by officials
of the Stalo Live Stock and Sanitary
Board, assisted by members of the Fed
eral Department of Animal Industry. The
Inspectors began their work at 6:30 and
will continue the Investigation nnd ap
praisement all day. Many uninfected
hogs are ready for slaughter and will be
taken to slaughter houses today after
being Inspected.
Few of tho piggery owners seem lo
realize the seriousness of the epidemic.
Nor do they npparantly realize that tho
State authorities are determined to stamp
out tho nttack In the shortest possible
time nnd In the most expeditious manner.
This means that the piggeries In that
section of the city will very likely be
wiped out. The means to be uned by tho
State ofllcinls are drastic. Infected
droves will be destroyed, tho pig stys
will be burned and all garbage and other
possible sources of contamination rind
contnglon will be disinfected.
The piggeries being examined to day In
cludo those of Farley Brothers, wltn
IR animals, at 32d street and Maiden
lane; Joseph McMullln. with 600 plg3;
Mulllgnn Brothers, with 350, Robert
Knight, with 6M, and James Andrews,
with 4D0 pigs. The infected nnlmnls are
being loaded on wagons nnd transferred
to a fertilizing plant. Healthy pigs are
being sent to slaughter houses, where they
will be examined again by Federal In
spectators before the meat will be placed
on the market.
The actual monetary loss to the pig
gery owners has not bee,n definitely fixed.
There will be about 1KI.CO0 pigs killed at
an average value of $10 to $13. nccordlng
to the present estimate of tho State
authorities. The recompense paid by tho
State will not approach this llguro. The
piggery owners, however, arc not disposed
to make a fight against the Stale, and in
most cases aro taking their losses philo
sophically. DELEGATES FAVOR SUFFRAGE
Ladies of Maccabees Indorse Issue at
Last Session of Convention.
Resolutions Indorsing woman suffrage
wero adopted nt the closing session of
the annual convention of the Ladles of
tho Maccabees of the World. The 200
