Appointments Laid Over
In little more time than it takes to
tell it the so-called Lynch "ripper"
resolution, dismissing fifteen city em
ployes was offered and laid over for
a week, and the Royal resolution pro
viding for the reappointment of the
! present entire police force was defeat
ed in City Council this afternoon.
The Lynch resolution was offered
first.
"Well," Mayor Royal broke the si
lence that followed the reading of the
list of those who stay, "gentlemen, I
don't want to prolong this agony, but
I'll have to ask that the resolution
lay over for a week."
"Oh, yes, " said Mr. Lynch genially,
"that's all right."
Then the Royal measure, providing
for the reappointment of all his police
officers, was read. There was some
silence after that, too.
"Well, we really ought to take some
action on it," suggested the Mayor.
"Do you want to lay that over, too?"
Silence Continued
The silence was continued until
Commissioner Gorgas rose. "I'll move
that the resolution be laid over."
"And second to that motion?" In
quired the Mayor.
Still silence.
"Then I'll second the motion to get
it before the house," said he, smiling
ly. "Tlie vote will be called on the
resolution." .
Commissioners Bowman, Lynch and
Taylor voted "No," and Mayor Royal
and Commissioner Gorgas voted "aye."
"The noes are three and the ayes
are two," declared the Mayor, "the
motion therefore frills. But, gentle
men we should do something about,
this."
There's nothing to be don®*" the
motion to lay on the table fell,"inter
posed Mr. Taylor.
"Then there should j£.. vat,e on
the action," suggested the' Mayor.
"Well." Mr. Gorgas was on his feet
again, "I'll move that the resolution
be adopted."
"And Vll second it," said the Mayor.
And when the "ayes" and "noes"
were called again the vote was the
same as before—3 to 2.
A Gentle Rustling
Following the announcement of the
ote there was a gentle rustling
hroughout the Council chamber as
the big group of spectators—patrol
men who expected to be dropped and
were pleasantly disappointed, would
be patrolmen who expected to be ap
pointed and were unpleasantly disap
pointed, and others—moved out of the
room.
For a moment or two there was
some little Hurry over the absence of
lames Miles' name as clerk in the city
treasury. This was explained by the
fact Miles is an appointment of the
City Treasurer alone. Marion Verbeke,
who has served for years as assistant
to the city controller and who, since
(he change of government has been
icting as clerk to Superintendent of
finance Gorgas, is also retained.
Whether or not the appointment of
Verbeke will give the Superintendent
jf Finance a chance to start some
hing at the next meeting is consider
ed problematical. It is understood,
however, that he is to be retained as
vlr. Gorgas has frequently declared
hat he is for efficiency—and that Mr.
Verbeke is filling the bill.
City Planning Measure
The addition to the Lynch resolution
-he only high light feature of the
meeting, was the Introduction of the
Jlty planning measure.
Some amendments were offered to
Mayor Royal's moving picture ordi
lance. The amendments tlx the age
lmit at 16 instead of 15; do not ex
clude attendance after hours at
•hurch, stereopticon or similar enter
tainments; and fixed 8 o'clock as the
hour In winter time and 9 o'clock in
summer months during which young
sters may not attend the prohibited
ilaces of amusement. Winter months
ire designated as October to March.
Vlayor Royal offered the amendments,
irdinances passed finally Included the
Taylor measure opening Cameron
street from Maclay to Wildwood Park
to a width of 120 feet and grading
Jrown street from Seventeenth to
Eighteenth.
New Ordinances

Church, on Sixteenth and Emerald
streets, respectively Mr. I.ynch's ordi
nance providing for the paving of Sev
enth street from Emerald to Wood
bine. The Lynch ordinance authoriz
ing the paving of Derry street from
Twenty-second to Twenty-third could
not be prepared in time.
A bill of $l7O for fire horse, board,
etc., was held up at the puggestion of
Commissioner Taylor pending an in
vestigation into the matter. He said
he understood the Fire Chief's motor
was intended primarily to do away
with the services of the horse and he
wanted to look into the bill thoroughly
before Council paid it.
Only one application for a patrol
man's Job was received. This was in
the shape of a letter from W. J. Shep
herd. a Thirteenth ward resident. He
wants to be a policeman In the city or
In the suburbs, hopes Council will give
it to him and asked that he be given
an interview.
The plans for the new Dock street
bridge were approved following the
reading of a letter by Commissioner
j Lynch. In this Mr. Lynch told of a
I conference with the Pennsy officials
J in which it was decided that the origi
nal plans wouldn't J>e changed. The
bridge will be of steel girder and con
crete construction and the method of
; arching the bridge will mean an addi
-1 tional foot of headway over the tracks.
The structure will cost from $25,000
to $30,000.
I In connection with the dropping of
Forrer in the face of general protest
throughout the city and resolutions
advising his retention adopted by the
Park Commission, City Commissioner
| Taylor Issued this statement:
"In a pre-election statement I
I promised the people of Harris
burg that I would devote my en
tire time to the duties of the of
fice and it is my intention to carry
out that promise. I do not think
that the city of Harrisburg should
! pay $5,600 a year for its superin
tendent of parks.
"I have requested J. Raymond
Hoffert to remain in the depart
ment as assistant superintendent.
He is not only a competent engi
neer, but also deserves much
credit for the able handling of
the detail work, and with his as
sistance I feel confident that the
work will be carried on as well as
in previous years.
"I have been busy the last few
months familiarizing myself with
the condition of the fire depart- '
ment, having visited several of
the larger cities With a view to
looking into the matter of mod
ern fire apparatus before expend
ing the $25,000 loan voted for by
the people of Harrisburg for the
improvement of the system.
"I have decided to retain John
C. Kindler in his present position
as chief, as he Is a capable man
and will be a competent assist
ant to carry'on the work of the
fire department."
All morning Commissioners Lynch,
Taylor and Bowman conferred on the
list of appointments, the session being
sort of a hold-over from last evening's
! meeting.
I The appointments submitted to-day,
I it is understood, were practically de
| cided upon last evening, although an
-1 other meeting was necessary to-day, it
Is said, to smooth over some slight rif
fles that developed.
All the Ctunmissioners said to-day
that there was no friction at the ses
sion last evening or this morning.
To Provide Planning Commission
llarrisburg's first City Planning
Commission Is provided for by an
ordinance Introduced this afternoon In
City Council by Commissioner of
Parks and Tublic Property M. Harvey
Taylor.
The appointment of the present
n embers of the Park Board —Charles
A. Disbrow, J. Horace MeFarland, H.
E. Hershey, John T. Brady and Wil
liam E. Bailey—will be offered in a ,
resolution at a meeting in the nearj
future, it is understood.
7 h'"* ordinance as offered this after
noon provides for the election of the
members of the Planning Commission
for terms of one, two, three, four and ;
five years, for the first time. There-I
after the members shall be elected for
flva-year terms.
The powers of the commission, so
far as the hiring of engineers, etc., are
lim'teri, provision being made in the
ordinance for the engineering work to
be done by the City Engineer's Depart
ment.
No action relative to the Shade Tree]
Commission was taken to-day.
Curfew Measure Held
Up For Another Week
Harrisburg's boys and girls will be
governed by a real curfew ordinance
if the City Commissioners adopt the
measure suggested to-day by a com
mittee of the Civic Club consisting of
Mrs. Martin, Mrs. George A. Gorgas
and Miss Fannie Eby. The committer
waited on the commissioners and while
the body as a whole thought the plan
a feasible one they deem it advisable
to inspect the ordinance pretty care
fully before introducing it. In order
that they may have some time to look
over its provisions it was decided not
to offer it this afternoon, so that it
may be another week or so before it is
submitted.
The measure prohibits any child
under 10 to be on the streets or In
other public place after 9 o'clock
unless accompanied by an adult of 21
or over. Children who are employed
and must of necessity be upon the
streets after the curfew hour will be
required to carry a certilled card
signed by the Mayor.
Curfew to Sound
At 8.45 the "curfew" shall be
sounded as a warning to youngsters to
get off the streets. Whether this will
be done by whistle or the courthouse
bell is yet to be decided, but It'is gen
erally understood that the courthouse
bell will suffice.
Policemen will be required by the
ordinance to report youngsters, their
names and addresses and their guar
dians' or parents' names and addresses
to the police chief, and he will notify
the latter within twenty-four hours
after the violation of the measure.
Fine of $5 and costs is to be imposed
upon conviction of parent or guardian
for violation of the ordinance, and in
default a penalty of twenty-four hours
in jail may be imposed.

massage treatment of the girl's nurse, Mrs. Schmidt. But the girl's re
covery was miraculously sudden, foria had not been expected that

THE WORM TURNS
As I went up to old St. Ives
I met a man with seven wives.
The spven spears stuck out behind
And waved defiance to the wind.
The seven hats which bore the spears
Suspended from twice seven ears.
The seven skirts, with fine eclipse,
Wound down the seven pairs of hips.
The seven slits, with rythmic sweeps.
Displayed their seven little peeps.
The seven dainty pairs of feet
Went sweetly mincing up the street..
Poor man! thought I; but loi a glance
Revealed him In. one-legged 'pants! ,
They bore a patch on which the flap
Flew up and down with each foot-tap.
His pettipants were very blue,
And one could see them peeking
through.
His knees we»e jammed, but lo! he still
Went caterpillar down the hill.
He sort of lid the caatle walk.
Exciting turbulence and talk.
Ho tangoed when he saw a cop,
And gamboled hippity and hop.
He even used, absurd enough,
The other pants leg as a muff.
He wore a sword behind his ear,
| And sometimes swished it in the rear.
I As I wont up to old St. Ives
I I met a man with seven wives;
' And ev'ry one of them was mad—
| He had it on them, so he had. '

Goodbye to
Pimples if You
Use Lax Links
Pimples upon a woman's face gen
erally indicate that the trouble is con
stipation. When you are in a constl-
I pated condition the blood absorbs the
poisons from the waste matter, and the
impure blood leads to the tylotchy, pim
ply, sallow complexion. Get rid of the
constipated trouble by using L«ax Links,
those delicious candy laxatives, exquis
itely flavored with the oil of spearmint.
They do not contain dangerous orhftblt
forming drugs, nor will they gripe or
cause pains. They will soon restore
the system to It* normal condition, thus
aiding in keeping the blood pure. Rec
ommended by physicians. Ideal for chil
dren, invalids and the old folks. 100
1 arid 25c boxes. Sold by all druggists.
