COURTHOLDS BRADY
PETITION INVALID
Nomination Papers of Phila
delphia Candidate Ordered
Set Aside
HnrrMiure, April :3.
District Attorney Stroup says ho can-1
not tell whether there will lie any court I
KCtlon HRnlnst Jacob V. Shlck. ot Head
Inc. Berks caiiipalsn secretary for J. .
Denny O'N'ell, ntuJ that the matter Is
up to JudRo Kunkel, I
The Judee remarked from tho bench
Saturday after hearing a witness. tay
that Shlck had Induced him to ko Io
Philadelphia Instead of conduc hero at
tho time of tho hearing of the objec
tions to the nomination petition of James
Woodward, of Ashland, that If the tes
timony was credible Shlck had com
mitted a crime.
Tho crime, according to the District
Attorney here, was committed In Derks
County, and It may, therefore, bo the
duty of tho Berks County authorities to
net. The offenso consisted In Interfering
with tho processes of th local court,
nnd it Is believed here that the Jlerks
County authorities will not of their own
volition mako an arrest for this.
Tho decision In the Woodward case
v?M probably bo handed down within a
day or two. Friends, of tho Allegheny
County Woodward express confidence
that the Berks and the HchuylklU'papers
of the petition of the Ashland man will
be declared Invalid iw.d the nomination
petition void.
The court lu an opinion yesterday
declared Invalid the nomination petition
Of Frank X. Brady, u Republican can
didate for the House from Philadelphia,
ant) ordered It set ttside.
'-' Objections to tha petition were filed
hy William J. Brady, and It waa shown
by witnesses, the opinion states, that
t the 112 signatures on tho petition
twelve wc.ro not genuine and another
Vwh that of a man not n resident of
the Tenth District. This left ninety-nine
1M signatures, and the election laws
r4Ulrfl 100 signature to u petition of
a candidate for the House. Two other
, 4nturea were spurious, the opinion
1 Mates, hut these were not referred to
Ih the objection.
William 3. Brady Is one of tho two
jWlweht members of the House from the
Tri District, which comprises the Flt
tAfa Ward.

rnn through Camp Crane, on the Allen

nounced that forty-two members of the

here, had been cited In army orders for

Most prominent of tho men Is I.leu.
i tenant Henry I Hlbby, who commanded
tho Amherst college unit, and went
across with It last August. Others from
Camp Crane are! Albert R. Ktrehlke,

hope and fair prospect that they would
.chleve close to 100 per cent before the
advent of next winter.
Today the coal Hlluatloii Is holding up
fprther advance in this direction, and
unless there Is some alleviation before
long, the steel men say, thero will be a
more or less serious drop "from nnrlh
weft to boiitheast" on the production
chnrts.
Thero has been no volume of notable
new contracts In tho last week, and the
situation In the market remains as tight
as heretofore. Sales transaction are at
an absolute minimum, with production
and transportation problems at a maxi
mum. Small offci Inc.. of off-grade Iron ure
available from time to time, but the big
problem Is that of getting them through
to purchasers, and not In finding pur
chasers. Permits for shipment appar
ently have little Influence under the
present conditions. More than one pro
ducer, despite files of permits, are un
able to get acceptances from railroads.
With whipping Instructions from the rail
road directorate, however. It Is possible
to get material on Its way with some
degree of rapidity. Without them there
Is no certainty ot anything except delay.
IIIGUEK VOTE EXPECTED
Includng Only Larger Cities, Esti
mate of Increase Is 150,000 Votes
llnrrlsburg, April 23. Neither Re
publican nor Democratic State head
quarters, has any figures showing reg
istrations In Pennsylvania this year,
hut the campaign headquarters of J.
Penny O'N'ell estimates that, exclublve
of third-class cities, the counties of the
Stale have registered 125,000 to 150,000
more men this year than were qualified.
to vote at the primaries a year ago.
Iteglstratlon day In tho third-class
cities this year Is May 1. Jn some of
these cities, the Dry Federation workers
und oJiers are trying to get the stay-at-home
voto out. The O'Nell estimate Is
based on returns from boroughs and
townships plus 60.000 additional regis
trations In Philadelphia.
Politicians of all parties coming to the
Capitol have remarked upon the lack of
Interest shown In nearly ull parts of the
State. They say the people are too much
Interested In tho war to talk politics.
The dry forces, working to organize tho
so-called church vote, have not been
making much headway In many locali
ties, for the men at the head of these
movements, It Is said by the politicians,
or- mostly persons unacoualnted with
politics, who spend most 'of their time
In talking nnd passing resolutions In
stead of blocking off voting districts and
Kitting workers out.
AVOID CHICK LOSSES
In order to uvold losses of voung
chicks, recommends the New Ji-hv
Agricultural Experiment Station, the fol
lowing precautions snouia oe observed:
Keep only good, vigorous, healthy
chicks, nnd do not attempt to raise
weaklings. Weaklings will only con
sumo feed and will never amount to
much, If diseased, they will spread the
disease to the rest of tho flock.
Avoid crowding. Watch the tempera
ture carefuly and do not allow It to
drop. Tend to the lamp or stove, as
the case may be. morning, noon and
night early und late am) If necessary,
during the night, though this should not
be necessary. Too much heat Is as bad
as too little; ninety-eight to one hun
dred degrees Fahrenheit Is about i,.
right temperature when the chicks are
kitchen goes tn the lumber yards and
nskH for prices. lo is told JG3 or It!
or whatever the price may be per 100) J
icei ior mo particular wooa no warns.
Put ho leaves the yard none the wiser
as to exactly what il w.ll cost to lay
his six by nine foot floor
Probably the only r a'-ou this tystcm
of retailing has persisted for years snl
years Is that no great number of retail
lumber dealers could afford the tlm? to
woik out a system of quoting the price
of lumber, not by the 1000 feet, but by
tile particular size required. This bl
problem has Just been solved for the
retail lumberman and for the small pur
chaser of lumber by tho National Lum
ber Manufacturers' Association.
This asFoelatlon has published a ftr-
les of tables which will enable the re
tall lumberman lo quoi" by the piece
lumber costing nnwherc fioin Jl to
$100 per 1000 feet and measuring any
length, breadth and thickness. The
booklet of tallies will be distributed
without chargo to all the retail lumber
dealers In the country and the author
will bo compensated by the knowledje
Hint much time, effort and Praia porf
which hitherto had been expended in
'figuring" by Individual lumber retailers
will henceforth be ront-erved and, PC
haps, spent In helping tho Ooiernment
win the war.
Tho tables, for Instance, f-how thai
pleco of lumber Ixt Inches. 10 feet long.
of a grado costing $10 per 1000 feet, will
cost 13 cents; a pleco :xl Inches, 18
feet long, of a glade worth J65 per
1000 feet, will cost on cents. Hy meant
of these tables the dealer can nt a glance,
tell what any size piece ot any graau
lumber will cost. ,
