loss to any man's business.
In the report submitted last night
by Elmer S. Schilling, chairman of
the Sunday closing committee, men
tion was made of drug stores, candy
stores, cigar stores and even grocery
stores that violate the law. Effort will
be made to close all drug stores ex

are to be sold. The other places are
to be closed down tight. If the busi

selves to close, the county authori
ties will be notified of the violations.

disclosure of less than half of them by
the police department.
A commltteo will call upon the own
ers of the houses, notify them of the
character of the tenants, and put the
question to them, "Do you want to be
linked with such a business?" Pub
licity and prosecutions will follow. So

MRS. ADA M. STEIN
St. Valentine's Chief
Aid and Pretty Girl Are
Betrayed by Harrisburger
When City Clerk Charles A. Miller
opened one of his pile of letters yes
terday he thought for a moment that
he and St Valentine were mixed up
a trifle as to dates. For, out of the
envelope addressed simply to "City
Clerk. Harrisburg," dropped a post
card picture of a pretty girl.
City office gossip has It that Mr.
Miller blushed a trifle and said
"Whew!" The clerical staff said "Ah
hah!" and "Oh, dear me,"
However it wasn't a valentine after
all, although the story back of the
missive, In a way, is a tale of St. Val
entine's chief—one of the tough little
stories of how the tiny winged archer
was probably betrayed.
With the picture was a pathetic
note from the original Mrs. Ada M.
Stein, of Lynn, Mass. Her maiden
name, she said, was Ada Greiner.
Quite evidently letter writing isn't
Mrs. Stein's long suit. She wrote to
the city clerk 011 the advice of the
prieKt In her parish with the hope of
learning something of the whereabouts
of one Lewis Stein, —whether he Is
married, how many children he has
and so on. She believes she had been
married to Stein, she says, but he has
deserted her. She has since learned
that he is a Hebrew and she wanted
Mr. Miller to tell her where Stein had
been baptized, any other facts he
knew of Stein's religious faith and
whether lie really lia« a wif* in IJar
risburg. She is pathetically anxious
to get In touch with Stein's wife— lf
he is married. Mrs. Stein (?) gives
har address as t>9 North Commons,
Lynn, Mass. She sent her post card
picture to prove "that she lives In
Lynn."
A Lewis Stein was once a patrolman
under ex-Mayors Gross and Meals.

Announcement was made late
this afternoon by Commissioner
Itowmun that the councllinanic
conference scheduled for to-11101- i
row niglit may be postponed until
Friday niglit.
What effect the so-called "ripper"
resolution will have on the personnel
of the various departments of the
municipal government will be defi
nitely known, it is expected, 'after
to-morrow evening's conference of the
city councilmen.
That the appointments decided upon
then will be submitted to Council at
Tuesday's meeting is a foregone con
clusion. And the introduction of this
measure, it is understood, will mean
the indefinite postponement of Mayor I
Royal's resolution offered in Council
yesterday providing for the reappoint- |
ment of the entire police force.
So municipal circles anticipate some i
more warring at next Tuesday's coun- 1
cilrnanlc session.
Considerable Hullabaloo
That considerable hullabaloo about
wholesale dismissals has been raised
without any foundation of fact Is the;
prevailing opinion in the city official !
circles to-day.
City commissioners have intimated
that while tho resolution means the
dropping of every employe and at
tache 011 the city's payroll whose jobs
are not otherwise provided for by the
Clark act. most of those dismissed will
be reappointed. Possibly a dozen po
licemen and perhaps a few other em
ployes of a minor character will be
dropped. It Is expected.

inspector to meet the Zaragosa when
she docked and to ascertain if any
attempt was being made to bring
aliens into this country unlawfully.

Frenchman, an Italian and a Mexican
of considerable prominence were

STEERING COMPASS

Deviation
COMPASS NEVER ADJUSTED
Captain Johnson Testifies at Trial
of Nantucket's Com
mander
By Associated Press
Philadelphia, Feb. 11. —Captain EA
ward F,. Johnson, commander of the
Old Dominion liner Monroe, which
was sunk off the Virginia coast by th«
Merchants and Miners steamship Nan
tucket, testified to-day in the trial of
Captain Asmyn Berry, of the Nan
tucket, that on the night of the dis
aster he was navigating his vessel
with a steering compass that was not
a truo instrument. There was a
standard compass aboard the Monroe,
he said, but he used the steering com
pass, which showed an easterly devi
ation. When he was steering a north
east-by-north course the deviation was
about two degrees, but ho admitted
he did not know what the deviation
was when his course was northeast by
east.
"What was the standard compass
aboard ship for?" asked.R. A. Sargent,
one of the local steamboat inspectors,
before whom the trial is being held.
"To check up on the steering 1 com
pass," Captain Johnson replied.
"Did you evor check up the steer
ing compais?"
"No, sir."
"Why not?"
"Because tho steering compass was
sufficiently accurate to navigate the
ship."
"Was tho steering compass ever ad
justed?"
"Not In my time as master of the
ship," replied Captain Johnson, who
became commander of the Monroe a
year ago.
