LAW ENFORCEMENT
ALL THAT'S NEEDED
TO ROOT OUT VICE
Pennsylvania Has the Strictest Sort
of Legislation Against
AH Brothels
NEW ACTS NOT MUCH NEEDED
Public Should Demand That Ex
ecutives Perform Their Duty,
Says Lecturer
That undue emphasis is being
placed on the passage of reform laws
In this country while the enforce
ment of the laws In existence is loose
wu a fact very forcibly brought out
by the Rev. Henry N. Pringle. assist
ant superintendent of the Interna
tional Reform Bureau of Washington,
In his talk at Curtin Heights 'Meth
odist Episcopal Church iast night.
He calls on the reformers of the
country not to strive so much after
new laws as to arouse the people of
the country to obey and require the
enforcement of the good laws now on
the statute books. Mr. Pringle said,
in part:
"My experience in hundreds of
criminal prosecutions before scores of
courts in about ten States," he said,
"is that the enactment of law Is not
one-quarter so important as the ad
ministration of law. The. amplitude of
the law and the completeness of the
evidence are ineffectual if tho prose
cutor and judge are hostile or in
different to the spirit of the statutes.
Reform Terrors Rare
"There are possibly 1,000 men In
the United States who are employed
by State and national organisations
devoted chiefly to the abatement of
commercialized vice. These reform
ers are usually intensely interested in
the enactment of laws on moral Issues,
but few are devoting much time and
money to the work of arousing citi
r.ens and enlisting officials in the ad
ministration of existing laws. Reform
leaders are rare who have personally
become a terror to evil-doers, like
Authony Comstoek, of the New York
Society for the Suppression of Vice; J.
Frank Chase, of the N'ew Eng.and
Watch and Ward Society; Edward H.
Emery, of the Christian Chic League
of Maine; A. S. Farwell, of the Hyde
Park Protective Association of Chi
cago, and Owen O. Wiard, of Cleve
land.
"From recent observations," the
speaker continued, "I api able to cite
some, typical instances of the bad re
sults of this popular tendency to fly
for help to the legislature Instead of
to the city hall. Pennsylvania has a
strict and adequate law against broth
els. but hundreds of them are con
ducted openly In York, Sunbury, Ix>ck
Haven, Williamsport, McKeesport,
Scranton and Pittsburgh. The New
York law prohibits the opening of sa- ]

JACOB H. ECKERT
PLEADS GUILTY OF
ALLCHAR9ESTODAY
Sentence at Once Imposed; Fines
Aggregate $650; No
Jail Term
JUROR MYSTERY EXPLAINED
Talesman Just Quit Work For the
Day and Went Home For
the Week-end
\C 3 o'clock this afternoon
counsel for Jacob H. Kckcrt an
nounced to the court that Mr.
Eckert wished to enter a plea or
guilty for all cluirges against
him. Sentence of tines aggregat
ing SB">0 was at once imposed. On
the disorderly house count the
lino was *300; on tlio selling of
liquor to intoxicated persons,
SI50: on the two counts of selling
liquor to minors, the hues were
SIOO each. The court announced
that a jail sentence was not 1m-
Viosed In \ lew of the fact that
license had some time
been revoked.
The mystery of the missing elev
enth juror in the Jacob H. Eckert
hotel cafe was fully explained at the
resumption of the trial this morning.
The juror had quit work for the day
and had gone home for the week-end.
William H. Howard, a Mifflin town
ship farmer, is No. 11; he turned up
bright and early this morning, a bit
astonished, perhaps, at his uncon
scious leap into the limelight. He
told President Judge Kunkel all about
it. Here it Ift;
The trial of Eckert, former pro
prietor of the Hotel Essex, whose
license has been revoked and who is
now answering for selling liquor to
mtnors. intoxicated persons and keep
ing a disorderly house, was ready to
be resumed when the absence of
No. 11 juror was discovered.
The trial waited while County De
tective Walters went out to find him.
All he could learn was that Mr. How
ard had paid his hotel bill, turned in
his key and left, presumably for the
Courthouse. And because the defense
didn't care to go on with but eleven
jurors the trial wa,i continued until
this morning at 10 o'clock. The trial
will probably hardly go to the jury
before to-morrow afternoon. ,
Wanted Saturday Half-Holiday
Before the case was resumed Mr.
Howard, in answer to the court's
query as to his absence, stated that
he had understood from District At
torney Stroup that he us well as the
other jurors were excused until to-day.

Tarrytown, N. Y„ Jan. 19.—West
Wood, carrying a basket containing a
white leghorn hen, boarded a trolley
car coming from White Plains to
Tarrytown to-day and was dismayed

money to pay his fare.
Just then the hen cackled and
'West, raising the cover of the basket,
discovered a newly-laid egg. The con

l lieu of fare, saying: "Fresh eggs are
I scarcer than nickels."'

Bishop Darlington Says Dance
Craze Is Eetter Than Whist
Declares the Modern Steps Are No Worse Than the Old
Ones; Predicts Return to Minuet
In reply to an Inquiry as to Ills

of Harrisburg, the Protestant Epis
copal Church, has stated that he

them.
The bishop states further that he

MISS SARA COBLE
While the police of Harrisburg, Steel
ton and Carlisle were seeking high and
low for Alma Shearer, 16 years of age,
of Steelton, and Sara Coble, 16 years
of age. of lyemoyne, the two pretty run
aways were spied in Carlisle by J.»H.
Troup, of the Troup Piano House, tills
city, and brought to Harrisburg.
The girls disappeared Thursday even
ing, and so far as any troce of their
whereabouts was concerned, the earth
might have swallowed them. The sud
den disappearance of the girls started
a report that they had fallen into the
hands of white slave "traffickers." Mrs.
Cobii' put in many a frantic hour.
The Shearer girl's parents are dead
and she makes her home with the fam
ily of W. L. Messlnger, Steelton. The
two girls are chums and spent Thurs
dav evening together. The last Mrs.
Coble saw of her daugnter, in fact, was
when she boarded a car to go to Steel
ton. The two girls later Thursday
evening left the Messinger home for
Harrisburg, the Shearer girl explaining
that they were going to a party.
Mr. Troup brought the two girls to
this citv on the train arriving from
Carlisle'at 2.4.1 this afternoon. The
girls said when asked why they left
th"ir homes for Carlisle without tell
ing their parents:
Oh, we Just wanted to sec the town,
that's all."
RIVERSIDE FOLK TO MEET
Residents of Riverside will gather
In the Methodist Church at 7.4 C
o'clock to-morrow night for the
monthly town meeting. At the meet
ing further action will be taken on the
ptoblems facing the community, such
as street lighting, paving, auto speed
ing and bitter postal service.
I think the tendency Is more and
more towards stately walking dances
and will eventually bring back the
old-time minuet, to which there could
be no possible objection.
"The present craze for dancing
which has driven out so completely
the former craze for bridge whist, is
a great improvement. Gambling and
drinking could be combined with
bridge whist, bat they cannot well
bo with dancing, Evil disposed per
sons will make evil of anything, but
the tendency of dancing in proper
placeß and under proper chaperonage,
I think, beneficial and proper.

Militia Incomplete
and Unbalanced, Says
Brig. General Mills
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C„ Jan. 19.—Con
ditions in the organized militia of the
coi\ntry are. on the whole, far from
satisfactory in organization, in strength
and in training, according to Brigadier-
General A. L. Mills, chief of the
division of militia affairs of the War
Department, in his annual report to
day. In his opinion, the militia's or
ganization is top-heavy, incomplete
and unbalanced; Its strength is much
below the important items necessary
for field service, and In training Is on
the average far below the standard
required for efficiency In time of need.
General Mills declares, however, that
despite a decrease in numerical
strength in the militia, the past year
was one of considerable progress and
Improvement.
General Mills believes that this im
provement may bo made more certain
by enactment of a militia pay law. lie
strongly urges federal and State co--
operation on the ground that the or
ganized militia's welfare can be fos
tered only in that way.
Some of the States are severely criti
cised for failure to take proper care of
the government property so that about
a million dollars worth was dropped
or carried on a suspended account.
The strength of the militia at the
end of the fiscal year was 9,130 offi
cers and 111,672 enlisted men, a net
decrease of 12 officers and 1,033 en
listed men compared with the preced
ing year.

getting along without a

The inauguration is never held until

The Red Flag
of Failure
When you do not advertise
your business you are Inviting
the Sheriff to come and do it for
you.
His red flag and bell form the
final advertisement.
It Is poor policy to save your
advertising for your business
obituary.
Just run your eye over the ad
vertisements In today's Tele
graph.
You will notice that the names
attached to them are the namef
of men who enioy sound financial
ratings. Certainly they are
namos of those on whom the
bankers look as good moral
risks.
They are mighty good company
to be with and a man Is often
Judged by the company he keeps.
It Is better to march behind the
band of progress than to halt un
der the red flag of fallur*.
