attics from their kitchen stove, conceived
the Idea of extracting Inflammable nlr
from coal. He patented a process, and
this patent Is one of tho treasures In the

Office. That Invention made the gas
range possible.
Celebrations of "Ga3 Range Week" In

! VIVISECTION BATTLE
STAGED AT CAPITAL
Senate Committee Will Hear
Argument Tomorrow on Ani
mal Experimentation.
Advocates and opponents of vivisection
from everv section of the Stato will bo
present In Harrlsburg tomorrow to at
tend the public hearing before tho Senate
Committee on Public Health and Sanita
tion for a pending bill which will permit
hospitals and medical tchools to pur
chase dogs from city pounds far purposes
Of animal experimentation.
The bill was Introduced at tho Instance
of a number of leading medical and vet
erinary schools and colleges ot the State,
which heretoforo have 'had considerable
difficulty In obtaining animals for use In
experimental purposes. For the most
part they have been forced to purchase
the animals from boys who would steal
them or pick them up on the streets.
Under the terms of the bill the hos
pitals and medical schools will be per
mitted to purchase dogs which would bo
killed at the pounds for the Bum of 1
apiece. Between 5000 and 6000 dogs aro
killed annually nt the pound In this city
alone. The number of dogs used In tho
sehools does not nearly approach this
number
.Opponents of vivisection are prepared to
argue against the bill on tho ground that
It Is Inhuman and cruel to use dogs for
vivisection purposes at any time, and,
further, that the colleges ehould not be
allowed to purchase tho dogs for $1 apiece
when It costs the owners of the dogs 43
to rescue them from the pound.
Senator Daniel P. Gerberlch. ot Leba
non, chairman of tho Senate Committee,
jim preside at tne Hearing.

THE MODERN KITCHEN
Kitchen closets aro formidable nuij un
attractive things at the hesu They al

kind that force you to go through
every enn In the closet to find the coffee.
All this is completely done away with
In tlie modern efficient kitchen.
Look nt the model kitchen In the pic

ness and lunctlinblllty. The closets nrp
painted white and shellac Is applied over
this. They aro msy to keep clean after
this, for the paint cannot possibly wear
off. All the receivables in the modern
kitchen closet are made ot Delft blue and

WHAT GAS WILL DO
Vow people understand how much can
he done by means of our modern Improve
ments In gas, electricity and other ap
pliances. Tho whole household, with very
few exceptions, could bo run by these two
motive powers combined. Taking gas np
plIanceB by themselves, hero Is a rough
estimate of what you can accomplish:
A water sterilizer It prevents any oc
casion for contagion, and operates In no
time. Has a tank with a capacity of two
or five gallons, according to tho occasion.
This has a tubing connecting with the
gas source, nnd sterilizes automatically.
An Incinerator to dlsposo of all the un
necessary refuso each day. There Is no
odor to this, of course, nor is there any
smoke. This Is drawn off by way of the
MAGISTRATE STOPS WAR
Puts Hirshman Under Bond to Quit
Kitchen Militarism.
It seems that a battle In the kitchen Is
a customary Saturday night affair at the
home of John Hirshman, 302! D street.
Tho crashing of cups nnd saucers
through the windows, according to his
daughter, Katie, is pleasant music to her
father's ears. With the opening of tho
bnsebnll season, It appears that tho
throwing mania of her father grew
worse. When ho was arraigned before
Magistrate Campbell at tho Front and
Westmoreland streets station today Katie
said that during Saturday night's battle
she was knocked down with a tea cup.
Her father had nothing to say.
"It'fl getting on my nerves," she de
clared, 'and I can't stand It any longer."
Hirshman was told to cease hostilities,
nnd to insure peace the Magistrate held
him In J300 ball.
PUNISHED CHILD MAY DIE
A possible fractured skull was tho pun
ishment meted out to 7-year-old Anthony
Smith, 1!61 North Philip street, for break

vlskl. 13 years old, 1055 North Philip

last night struck the child over the head
with a brick, knocking him senseless, and
then hid him In a boxcar on the tracks of

multaneously the Austro-Oerman troops

AUTO OWNERS FIGHT
DOUBLED STATE FEES
Bill Would Make Pennsylvania
Registry Cost Highest in
Country, Its Enemies Say.
Efforts to enlist every automobile owner
In the Stato In a fight on a proposed law
which would double the tax on plcnsuro
nnd commercial motor vehicles will be
made by tho Philadelphia Auto Trade As
sociation and the Pennsylvania Motor
Association through tho medium of news
paper advertising, letters and personal
appeal
A bill, known as House bill No. 1471.
providing that both pneumatic and solld
tlied motor-driven vohlcles shall pay fees
for registration exactly doublo those at
present In force, was Introduced In tho
House of Representatives at Harrlsburg
on Aprlt 7, by Representative 13. Lip
scliultz. ot this city. The bill Is under
consideration by a subcommittee of the
Committee on Judiciary General, and is
being watched zealously by automobile
dealers nnd owners
"The bill would work a great Injustice
to both dealers and private owners ot
automobiles," said J. 15, Gomery, treas
urer of the Philadelphia Auto Trade Asso
ciation today, "nnd we Intend to fight
Its passage to the last trench. Auto
mobile owners paid Into the revenues of
the State last year nn nmount estimated
nt 31,700.000 Both dealers nnd private
owners have p.ild heavy tnxes hereto
fore without complaint, though they have
felt that unjust discrimination wns made
In favor of horse-drawn vehicles.
"Tho constant and Increasing burdens
which nro being loaded tin tho automo
bile Industry is sure to reict and in
affecting what Is now the fourth greatest
Industry In the country, will affect ad
versely n vast number of workers."
According to members of tho Auto
Trade Association, licenses for motor
vehicles In tho Stato of Pennsylvania
are already tin high as those of any other
State, and higher than the majority. The
proposed increase would place the Stato
in a new class for high registration fees.
The schedule of proposed registration
fees on automobiles ns provided for by
the hill is:
Less than "0 horsepower, $10
More than 3) nnd less than CS horse
power, ?:o.
More than 33 nnd less than M horse
power, j.0
Fifty horsepower or more, Sin.
It wns pointed out by a dealer that a
small car of 23 B horsepower, costing
IKiO, which now puvs a license of $10 a
year, would, under this bill, pay $20 a
year or 3 per cent, of Its cost.
