WEST CHESTER HOTELS
ADMONISH PATRONS
Placards Forbid Them to "Stand
Around" as Licenses Are
Placed Under Fire
WEST CHESTER, Va., March 19. Above,
every hotel bar in this place today this
advice appears In ble black letters:
"After being served persons will please
pass out : no standing around permitted."
Remonstrance court opened this fore
noon and fifteen of the forty-ono applica
tions for license in the county are under
fire. Just what the no-llcenso leaders have
In store for the hotelmcn Is not divulged,
but from tho actions of some of the pro
prietors they are worried. It Is probable
that much new flro will bo opened upon
them, which was not used at the recent
hearings against the Coatesllle and Down
Ingtown hotels, all of which lost their
licenses by revocation proceedings.
It Is said a renewal of work on the part
of detectUcs for the no-license forces may
develop some things not yet revealed. It
is known that their operatives have been
active in gathering evidence against nil
hotels, even those against which there are
no remonstrances. A sample of this is
furnished by the proceeding against the
Paikesburg Hotel, conducted by R. Parke
Gable. There Is no remonstrance filed
against tho place, but revocation of tho
license Is asked because of alleged viola
tions occurring since tho Coatesvllle and
Downlngtown bars were closed.
CONNAUGHT DUCHESS BURIED
That thc $1,438,000 available forMhe con
struction of a. Convention Hall on the Park
way Is sufficient, Is the assuranco given
Mayor Smith by Industrial conentlon ex
perts and leading builders of the city. So
certain are these authorities of their facts
that they advised thc Mayor that they
would be satisfied with nothing less than n
structure of sufllclent size to permit Phila
delphia actlely to compete with New York
arid Chicago ns a conentlon center.
Thcso assurances that a dignified struc
tuie can bo erected within the nmount tho
city Is able to spend, following as they do
demands from members of tho Falrmount
Park Commission nnd the Art Jury that a
small comentlon (mil be abandoned, are
expected to lead to tho preparation ot a new
hall plan, Including many features of tho
original scheme.
SOME WOULD WAIT
A number of the Mayor's advisers are
still Insisting that the Convention Hall
project bo nhandoned until a new loan can
be placed before tho people, providing sev
eral millions more for a building. The
Mayor Is on record as favoring as large a
comentlon hall as can be built and is now
only nwaltlng tho nssurance of Architect
John T.' Wlndrlm, who has drawn all the
convention hall plans, that a larger and
less costly structure than any he has yet
outlined is within the realm of possibility.
nOURSE EXPERT'S VIEW
Indicative of the desires of many Phlla--
delphlans is a letter forwarded to the Mayor
bv L. R. Duflleld, superintendent of the ma
chinery department of the Philadelphia
Bourse and nn industrial convention expert
of more than local repute, In which tho
writer says:
"I would say that the funds now avail
able for a convention hall are ample to
build the kind of a hall wo need. Let us
have a plajn, substantial structure with
out the fancy decorations and architectural
embellishments that cat up money aril fall
to achieve the purposes for which the hall
is to be built. Let us reallzo that Philadel
phia wilt neer attract conventions on the
strength of Its historical associations, Inde
pendence Hall or the number of its homes
o"r Industries ; that the conventions must be
offered what they want, and that conen
tion holding Is not a sightseeing joyrlde
for delegates, but a cold business proposi
tion. L R DUFFIELD."

Ban Put on Drinks in Every Licensed
Place in City
NEWARK, March 10. The Excise Board
of New Jersey has put the Ud on In New
ark with a new ruling, that beginning to
day no Intoxicating drinks may be sold In
any saloon, cabaret, restaurant or dance
hall between 1 and 3 a. m. The rule was
made several days ago, but its operation
was postponed so as not to Interfere with
the celebration of St. Patrick's Day.
Saloon keepers of Newam generally are
belioed to favor the new order, but Some
proprietors, especially those giving cabaret
shows, objected on the ground that It would
Injure their late trade and Interfere with
contracts .with cabaret singers and dancers.
The board decided to abandon its original
plan to issue all-night licenses after the
receipt of a petition from fourteen clergy
men and another from 145 residents of
Vallsburg.

WHAT THE DENTIST
SAYS TO TH E MOTH ER
MlBIISSMimMIlllllHIIl!llIlllllMHMII
"When the child is between S and 6, watch out for the
first permanent molar. Don't mistake it for one of
the biby teeth and don't let it decay. If that tooth is
lost the Jaw does not develop properly and the child
will be handicapped1 for life with an imperfect set of
teeth."
That all-important six year molar won't decay if it is
brushed regularly with a tooth brush and an effichnt
dentifrice. '
Give each of your children a small tooth brush and a
tube of S. S. White Tooth Paste. They'll quiokly
acquire the habit because S. S. White Tooth Paste is
a delightful to use as it is efficient. It ii pungently
flavored with a delicious blend of choice essential oils.

While almost under the shadow of death,
Krncst Haines, the seventeen-year-old Jef
ferson County boy, whose execution has
been postponed by Oovernor Brumbaugh,
has been granted a new trial by the Su
preme Court.
' Together with Henry Ward srottern, an
other boys Halnei was convicted last August
In Jefferson County of first degree murder
for the killing of Haines's father. Mottcrn
was granted a new trial by the Supremo
Court by its decision on February 14. Tho
appeal of Haines was decided today. Ho
ns to die in the electric chair on May 7.
Tho opinion of the Supremo Court, which
was written by Justice Mestrezat, sustains
the nppeal from the lower court on the
second assignment of error. ThU assign
ment of error was thatt het rial Judge cried
In permitting Mottern, the accomplice of
Haines, nnd who confessed to doing tho
actual shooting, to testify In the trlnl of
Haines to an nllcgctl Beparato and distinct
offesnso committed previously by him nnd
the defendant tho robbing of Seylcrs"
store1 for tho purpose of showing they
wero associated together In the commission
of other offenses.
Justice Mestrezat said: 'This evidence,
ne well as the offer of the District Attorney,
made In the presence of tho jury, was
clearly prejudicial to the defendant, an the
Jury would readily conclude that If the de.
fendant had.rccently been associated with
Mottcrn In the commission of other crimes,
It was a logical presumption under tho ci
flcnce that he was not Ignorant of Mot
tern's last offense."
Eer since tho sentence of death ai
pronounced on the head of the two boys
last August, their cases have aroused
a greater furore almost than nny others
In this State. ' ,
Leaders In education, humanitarian
moements, society clrcloi nnd members
of the bench and bar throughout tho State
almost Immediately began a. fight to have
capital punishment abolished in Pennsyl
vania. Mass-meetings were held nnd almost
every form of public protest used.
Bill? to abolish capital punishment In tho
State, substituting lire imprisonment a's the
extreme penalty, have been Introduced in
the Legislature. Haines was sentenced to
die on March 5. Governor Brumbaugh
gtanted a respite until May 7.
Tho boys wero tried separately. Mottern
did tho actual shooting according to tho
evidence. Tho motive was to rob Haines's
father of $250.
ARRESTS IN $10,000
EMBEZZLEMENT CASE
Police Say Funds of Standard
Hosiery Company Were Used
for Gambling
Fondness for gambling, the police say, led
to the arrest of two men accused of con
spiracy" ln the embezzlement of nearly

pany, 1310 North Lawrcnce'sireet. Investi
gation of the books ot tho concern Is still

stilt further peculations. The arrest of a
thrd man, now 111 at his home, Is momen
tarily expected.
The prlsonets ate Janice Moore, of 1208
North Randolph street : Phillip I.ashell, of
1009 North Randolph street. The third man
Involved In tho ense Is, an official of a
manufacturing concern. Although his con
fession, It li said, led to the arrest of the
others, ho Is not awaro that a warrant has
nlso been Issued for his arrest.
Moore and Lashcll have each been held In
$3500 ball by Magistrate dlenn. The men
were arrested on complaint of David T.
Berllzhelmer, president of the company.

lice, brought the 111 official under their in
fluence In some unknown manner and com
pelled him to take the amount mentioned.
