Hi MONDAY EVENING, "Green Beetle" to Take Folks Slumming in Chinese Quarter Orpheum Headliner Tells a Weird Story of the Treachery That Awaits Unsuspecting Visitors to Mongolian Resorts " i " wHI bo an odd and interesting trip into the heart of New York's Chinatown that vaudeville audiences will take right here in Ilarrisburg next week The Green Beetle, which comes to the Orpheum for a week s run is a two-act Chinese playlet, showing the wily traits of the wicked Chinamen who bring shame to their race by the manipulation of unspeakable dives In the heart of the great metropolis. In reality this playlet is g.n expose of con ditions that really exist, but Is presented with so much care to the artistic and dramatic detail that It forms an enjoyable, as well as a surprising en tertainment. The title of the piece comes from the wierd superstition that hovers about a certain gem in the Chinese shop, and the experiences of those who handle the Jewel support the theory that Chinese cunning Is a difficult thing for even a conscientious police department to combat.—Advertisement.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH BERRY BOXES MUST CONTAIN MARKS Chief Sweeney TeUs What Will Happen If People Disregard the New Act | The man who sells strawberries or any of the other luscious fruits of | summer time in a box or other con : tainer without the capacity being 'stamped on the outside is going to get into trouble and there is also I bother In store for the seller of ice cream who disposes It by the box unless a statement of the quantity is printed on the side of the lid. The old way of selling by the box or basket or bag without the buyer knowing the quantity is under the ban of the law and the kid who asks for a nickel's worth of ice cream or peanuts is to be given as much information as the most captious buyer in bulk. Under the new law sales must be made by weight or numerical count. The old ways of doing things were done away with by the commodities act of 1913 and Chief James Sweeney, of the State Bureau of Standards, says that people had better study the law before the cry of "strawberries" rings through the land. In speaking about the situation, Mr. Sweeney said: "The commodities act passed by the Legislature of 1913 requires that all dry or liquid measures used in measuring commodities must have the capacity thereof marked on the outside of the measures, as it is un lawful to use any measure unless the same has the capacity marked there on. The former method of selling by the crate, box or basket is prohibited under this act. "In the fruit season it has been customary to sell strawberries and other fruit l'or so aiuch per basket. Under the act passed by the Legisla ture this method of selling berries or fruit will not be permitted. If ber ries or fruit are sold in baskets, boxes or crates the quantity of the contents of the baskets, boxes or crates must be plainly and conspicuously marked on the outside thereof. All commo dities must be sold by weight, meas ure or numerical count. If the berry baskets contain one quart, that quan tity in words or figures must be marked on the outside of the baskets. "The dealer who refuses to comply with those requirements of the law subjects himself to the penalties of tho act. Under this act the inspector of weights and measures is vested with authority to enforce Its provisions. "In selling ice cream, the boxes which are used by dealers must have the capacity marked on the outside. To have those boxes marked sc, 10c, 15c or 26c per box does not comply with the law, except they also have the capacity marked on the outside, as those boxes, under the law, are considered measures. "From the numerous inquiries which we received at this bureau of standards relative to the provisions of the weight and measure law we have deemed it advisable to explain to the public just what we believe the provisions of the law are as it applies to commodities that are sold by the box. crate or basket, and also as to commodities that are sold in package form. Under the law all goods sold in package form must have the quantity of the contents plainly and conspicuously marked on the outside of the package. "The Legislature of 1913 has made a standard of weight per bushel for various commodities. The consumer, when purchasing by the bushel, half bushel, peck, half peck, quart or pint, is entitled to receive the number of pounds as specified in the law for tliQ particular commodity which he pur chases. Young Men in York County Notified of Draft For Service in Mexican War Dallastown, Pa., March 30.—Letters received here from Harrisburg signed by J. M. Milligan, U. S. A., in which the writer says he was authorized by the War Department at Washington, notified several young men that they have been drafted for service in the Mexican war, and that unless they re port within ten days or furnish S3OO for a substitute they will be arrested, imprisoned and be subjected to court martial. Archibald Grim, George Geesy and Curvin Heise, of this place, and Ralph Price, of York, each re ceived a notice, and it is said that there were a number of others. The letters caused considerable annoyance to the young men and the members of their families, some of whom looked upon them as official and not as a joke, for which they were apparently intended. The one received by George Geesy was turned over to Squire Bar tenschlager to be forwarded to the post office officials at Harrisburg for investigation. The notices are dated March 26, at Harrisburg, postmarked York, and were received here on March 27. Each bore a two-cent stamp. None of the men seen can imagine who Milligan is or who would write such a letter and sign a fictitious name. The Milligan signature is in a bold, business hand. To Organize First Aid Corps at Elliott-Fisher Some time ago a man was hurt at the Elliott- Fisher Typewriter Works. He lost much blood, for no one knew how to stop It. A doctor came In tho nick of time. This incident began to be discussed In the work and out of it hus sprung a suggestion for the formation of a first-aid corps. Twenty five men will be organized Thursday Into the lirst such body In the Elliott- Fisher works. H. A. Footherap, superintendent, will direct the class, which will take up lirst-ald work in all Its phases.

FARM ADVISERS TO START APRIL 1 Had Their Spring Conference With Director Martin at Capitol Yesterday Pennsylvania's ten farm counsellors or field advisers will begin their tours of the State on next Wednesday, April 1, and each one has from thirty to forty requests for immediate visits and advice on agricultural problems, including crops, drainage and dairy ing. The counsellors were here Friday for consultation with A. L. Martin, the director of farmers' institutes with which they are connected, and the work for the Spring and summer was planned. As far as possible the coun sellors will follow a schedule made up for them according to the 400 re quests sent to the office of the division by people throughout the State. The farm counsellors were organized last year following passage of an act presented early in the session and over 500 farms were visited on requests and advice given as to meeting prob lems. The work is distinct from the orchard supervision work by which demonstrations of methods of spray ing and pruning trees are now being given throughout the State. Warning's of the dangers of forest fires have been sent to almost every railroad and to many of the big manu facturing and lumber companies of Pennsylvania .by the State Forestry Department In an effort to secure co operation in a campaign to reduce tire losses. The notices call attention to dangers from sparks and ask that em ployes be Instructed to prevent tires. Most of the railroads have replied, tendering their co-operation and spe cial efforts to instruct men in fighting fire will be made. In addition the State is providing material for instruc tion of children in fire dangers, espe cially in rural districts.
