quire would be found against the mer
chant-bankers.
Charge Violations
The indictments already found

Fourteenth street store." said Mr.
Train, "are typical of the affairs of
other Siegel enterprises."

ployes of the Riverton Consolidated
Water Company, under the direction
of Superintendent Charles Saunders,
this morning began carrying out their i
threat to turn off the water supply of
residences here whose owners refuse
to pay the increased water rates.
When the men, six in number, reach
ed Camp Hill this morning they were
warned by Squire Bowman that airy
attemmpt to dig up the streets would
be met with arrests Pick and shovels
were not used this morning nor early
this afternoon but a key, such as is
used to turn off water at the water
valve boxes In front of houses, played
ajjrominent part
Two women defied the company em
ployes and stood over the boxes refus
ing to move until after the men had
gone away One Mrs. W. G. Vander
grift, who lives in Oyster Point ave
nue, stood over the tap for a full half
hour The men told her they wanted
to turn oft the water and she ordered
them away They did not go and she
then took up her position on the
water box. The men, tired of wasting
time, departed The other woman,
Mrs. Michael Shipp, of Main street,
was equally determined not to allow
the water to be turned off. She also
stood on the box and threats to dig
up the street did not frighten her. Ac
cording to spectators, the men told
Mrs. Shipp she would catch cold
standing in the open air. Neverthe
less Mrs. Shipp remained at the box
until the men had gone away.
The next place visited was the home
of William Staufter, of Cumberland
street. Mr. Stauffer had placed ce
ment over the top of the water valve
box in front of his home. The men
were about to crack the covering when
threats of arrest made by Mr Stautfer

they went away without disturbing
him.

Alaska Bill Signed
Klondike Gold Pen
Special to The Telegraph
Washington, D. C., March 12. —The
nen with which Speaker Champ Clark
signed the Alaska Railroad bill yes
terday was made of Alaska gold and
was held in an ivory penholder made
from the tusk of a mastodon that
roamed in Alaska more than 50,000
years ago.
Vice-President Marshall used the
same pen and holder when he af
fixed his signature. The penholder
was carved in the form of an Alaskan
totem pole by an Alaskan Indian liv
ing in Skagway. The ivory tusk from
which the holder was carved was
found in the Alluvials of the Kuskok

from those deposits must be at least
50,000 years old.
The ivory penholder and the gold
pen were supplied by John E. Ballaine,
of Seattle and Alaska, who has been
one of the active supporters of the
Alaska Railroad bill. Mr. Ballaine
will present the pen and penholder
to the Territory of Alaska. The bill

Choosing
The Right Piano

One needs to be sure in piano
buying. Quality and character
count more than price.
And the safest, surest guide to
the right piano at the right price
Is the advertising in a live daily
newspaper like the Telegraph.
The names of the representa
tive Instruments are ail' made
known through careful, dignified
advertising.
The best piano dealers are ad
vertisers reputable men who
back up reputable Instruments
with their own guarantee.
Good pianos are not made by

herald the quality which has al
