HARRY TAKES PEN IN HAND
State House Clock Loaflnq Again,
. Office Boy Notes
Harry, the office, boy, contributes
the following:
The Independence Hall clock must of
been overjoyed on the return hgmo of
the first shipload of tho Seventy-ninth
Division, because it fell down on the
job again and is eighteen minutes slow.
Tho cause must of been that lato last
evening when the clock heard that the
Dakotan had docked the clock forgot
that it must keep on pushing its hands
around and so inform the public what
time it was. It forgot until nil was over
about eighteen mimites later, when it
reminded itself that it had laid dowu
on the job.
It couldn't rush up to the right time
so it went on working, but is just
eighteen minutes late.
Once before this week the clock was
on-the blink.

Auto Theft Suspects Held at

Two alleged motorcar thieves arc be

'Ihc suspects who said they wcie

iu Abiiuton after n chase. They had
tried to sell an nutomobile believed to

The men wero questioned in connec

rntrolmau, but established an alibi. The
Wilkes-Barre authorities were notified
awl tho Fiinpccts will be brought to that
citv lute today.
Lato in the afternoon the two men
appeared at the Mason gnrnge, Hat
boro, and offered a virtually new seven
passenger car for sale. Policeman AA'in
ner, attracted by the Apparent nervous
ness of the men, had walked to the side
of the car and there noticed the motor
number on the license tag did not con
form to the number of the motor. lie
passed this information to Stephen
Mason, owner of the garage, and when
the men offered the car for sale Mason
replied :
"I know where you can get $1000
for the machine. I can't uso it nnself,
but I'll fnke you to the buyers."
The men assented and Mason drove
them to the Abington police station.
AA'hen he motioned to Policeman Messcr.
who was standing outside the station
house, the men jumped out of tho enr,
running in diffirent directions.
One ran down Highland avenue, to
