ORPHEUM WILL GET ITS OCEAN
FROM THE RIVER IN BUCKETS
Six Diving Girls Must Have Water and Here's
How The Question Is Solved'
Ever since the management of the
Orpheum announced that it was hav
ing a hard time deciding the cheapest
way to fill the big tank in which six
diving girls are to make a plunge
Monday afternoon, and every other
afternoon and evening during the
week, numerous suggestions have been
made. The one decided upon as most
feasible is to have a bucket brigade
of twenty men carry the-water from
the river. They will start Monday
morning.
One suggestion was to heat the the
ater so fiercely over Sunday that the
snow on the roof would melt and run
down the spout, then it could be steer
ed Into the tank. But enough steam
to do that would cost more than the
act.
Another suggestion was to cart the
snow down from Capitol Park and

CONSIDER ARMOR PLATE PLANT
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C., Feb. 14. A
commission to investigate the desrabll

melt It in the tank, but the manage
ment was afraid it would be arrested
for appropriating State property.
The idea of taking the girls over to
the river where the water awaits them
didn't look good, for at the rate of
SSO a girl, which tho last girl diver in
the river paid, runs up too high for a
half dozen to try it at the same time,
and twelve times a week.
One of the breweries offered to fill
the tank with beer just for the ad,
but the management was afraid the
town might go dry before Monday and
make this Impossible.
So it was decided to start a bucket
brigade working on Monday morning.
Manager Hopkins has figured that it
will take twenty men, each carrying
five gallons at a time, just 100 trips
each to tho river, and this is a cinch.
So that's the way it will be done.—

of materials was carried, all of which
was totally destroyed, as well as tools,
machinery, etc.

ment had been In business at New

current operations being assigned to
general repair and construction work,
so that practically the entire force of
approximately 16,000 men was con
tinuously employed, and at the high
est rate of wages in the history of the
company, your payroll being largbly
in excess of any year."

to-day and telephoned from tho rail
road station to two friends asking
them to act as seconds in his duel

of Vedrines to give satisfaction to
Henry Roux, a rival French aviator,
who had also flown from Paris to

the law creating the bureau places
under their charge.
The regulations prepared provided
that any person of good moral char
acter who has practiced chiropody
continuously for three years and can
establish the fact shall be licensed
forthwith, but that all other persons
now practicing will be required to pass
an examination to their qualifica
tions, applications for this examination
to be Hied by May 1, 1914. No per
son will be licensed to practice this
branch who cannot satisfy the bureau
that he or she has had a preliminary
education equal to a four-year high
school course and taken a course of
study in chiropody in a school recog
nized as reputable and competent by
the bureau. The passing of a satis
factory examination established by
tho bureau is conditioned by compli
ance with these latter requirements
and proof of good moral character.
An advisory committee of experts
in chiropody will be selected to assist
the experts In determining qualifica
tions of candidate for licenses.
Tagging Furniture. —All of the fur
niture In the State Capitol is to l>e
numbered and r.-arked with a metal
tag. This plan liau just been approved
by the Board of Public Grounds and
Buildings and it is probable that be
fore the summer begins that every one
of the hundreds of chairs, the numer
ous tables and desks will have Father
Penn'u Insignia stamped thereon. A
book will be kept in which the location
of an article of furniture can be told
at a glance. The furniture is now
marked by muslin tags pasted on the
bottom.
C'otttosville's Case. —The State AVater
Supply Commission will probably act
on the question of approval of the
water supply for Coatesville at its
meeting on February 19. By that time
the reports of experts who have been
.uaking a study are expected to bo in
hand. The study has been made by
men familiar with water supply and
construction of dams.
Measures by Carload. A carload
of scales, weights and measures sent
to the State Capitol for verification by
the city authorities of Philadelphia,
is divided between the State Capitol
and warehouses in tills city, and the
force of the State Chief of Standards
is working overtime to standardize
the numerous appliances and vessels.
Under the law all scales, weights and
balances to be used by sealers in the
State must be standardized by the of
ficial standards which were furnished
by the United States government to
the Department of Internal Affairs.
Philadelphia has just arranged for
sealers and the consignments have
swamped the department. James
Sweeney, the chief, has, in addition to
the Philadelphia apparatus, the
weights and measures l'rom ten other
counties in the State to look over. All
but half a dozen counties have named
sealers and most of the cities have
done the same.
No Booze in Ice Cream.—The üße
of alcohol in ice cream may be de
barred by statute of the next Legisla
ture if a suggestion of Dairy and Food
Commissioner James Foust is fol
lowed. The law prohibits the use of
any materials containing alcohol in
confectionery made for public sale,
and recently it was found that the
statute could not be applied to ice
cream. As sherry and other wines
are employed in making some varie
ties of ice cream, the commissioner
says he will bring the matter to the
attention of the lawmakers.
Free Service. The Public Service
Commission will probably consider
some of the new questions raised
about the effect of the public service
company law on free or reduced rate
service at its meeting on Tuesday. The
question of, reduced rates for clergy
men is still undetermined and since
the last meeting several new problems
| have been submitted.

Good Citizenship League Warns
Merchants That "Blue Laws"
Will Be Enforced
A joint committee from the Steelton
Merchants' Association and the Good
Citizenship League began in earnest
this morning to agitate the observance
of the old Sunday "Blue Laws."
The Rev. Warwick Arthur Lollls,
chairman of the committee, visited
each business place in the borough to
day and left a letter for the proprie
tor. In this letter it was explained
why the stores were requested to close
Sundays and an offer was made to ex
plain the laws to anyone who didn't
understand them.
With the letter was a copy of the
laws relating to Sunday observance
und it was intimated that any dealer
who failed to comply with the com
mittee's request would be prosecuted.
The letter follows:
To the Business People of
Steelton: A movement has been
started in this borough to secure
better observance of Sunday.
This has the sympathy and sup
port of tho better people of Steel
ton. The Pennsylvania Steel Com
pany, upon whose well being tho
prosperity of Steelton depends,
keeps its Sunday work at the low
est pructlcal minimum; the Mer
chants' Association has appointed
a co-operating committee, Messrs.
Aalpli Eckels, Bert Lord, Wil
liam Maginnis, Fred Reeliling and
G. M. Long; the churches arc ail
in favor of it; a Good Citizenship
League has been formed, one of
whose objects is to secure It; and
so we are appealing to you to
assist in this mutter. We are
asking all people who have been
in the habit of keeping their
places of business open on Sunday,
with tiie exception of those allow
ed by law, to keep them closed on
and after March first, "Go to
Church Sunday," in this section.
The members of the commit
tee from the Merchants' Associa
tion and from the league will bo
glad to confer with any who wish
to consult them. It is hoped that
no prosecution will be necessary,
but at the same time arrange
ments will be made lo take care
of such oases as come before the
league for action.
Thanking you in advance for
your co-operation, enclosing a
copy of the law for your guid
ance, I remain.
Yours very sincerely,
Harwick Arthur Lollis,
Chairman Sunday Committee,
Good Citizenship League.
Little Damage Caused
at Steelton by Storm
At Steelton, although the trolley
service was hampered and difficulty
was experienced In keeping the streets
open, no serious damage was done by
the big snowstorm.
Around the big plant of the Penn
sylvania Steel Company many gangs
of extra men were kept at work
sweeping switches and keeping things
moving in the yards. Otherwise the
storm was but little felt. No acci
dents wers reported and all depart
ments were working as usual.
Street Commissioner Meshey had
his men out early and had the streets
and all crossings cleared early. Bur
gess Fred Wlgfleld repeated his order
to have all pavements cleared of snow
and ice within twenty-for hours and
most residents are obeying.
Down in the lower end of Steelton,
in the midst of the foreign section,
the storm was felt the most.
