DAVID E. TRACY
There is much public interest in the
development of the large plant of the
Harrisburg Pipe and Pipe Bending
Company at State a d Hcrr streets.
This important industry has been one
of the interesting factors in the growth
of Harrisburg inasmuch as it has dup
licated the activity of "the city in its
own expansion.
Starting in a modest way the plant
has grown until it is now one of the
largest of the industrial concerns of
this section of the country. Its prod
ucts go far and wide and notwith
standing the business depression it
has been operating at full capacity
with good prospects of some large or
ders ahead.
Some important changes have re
cently taken place in the organiza
tion, David E. Tracy, who started as
mechanical engineer, having been
elected president. He was formerly
general superintendent, which place
is now taken by W. P. Starkey, for
merly assistant general superintendent
and chief engineer. Mr. Starkey has
designed and supervised the erection
of a new universal mill for the com
pany (luring the past year which has
attracted the attention of many engi
neers throughout the country.
Mr. Tracy recently resigned as pres
ident of the Board of Public Works
in order to devote his whole attention
to the business of the company, al
though he is still much interested in
the working out of the several im
portant public improvement under
takings which were started during his
service in this important municipal
board.
Under the reorganization E. Z. Wal
lower becomes vice-president and W.
T. Hildrup, Jr., general manager,
treasurer and secretary. While there
has been a slackening in new orders,
which Mr. Hildrup attributes to un
wise legislation and lack of public con
fidence, the company still has a con
siderable tonnage o£ unfilled orders
and there is likely to be a decided in
crease in the near future in the de
mand for the products of the com
pany.
Several hundred men are employed
at the big plant and the conditions
from the standpoint of steady employ
ment are understood to be reasonably
satisfactory.

MOOSE CARNIVAL
DRAWS BIG CROWD
No Painted Women, Oriental Danc
ers or Girl Shows in the
Production
The Moose carnival at Sixth and
Division streets drew another Immense
crowd last night, and expressions of
appreciation were heard on every
hand, it is no exaggeration to state
that the Washburn company is one of
the cleanest and most refined carnival
organizations ever in Harrisburg.
In place of the painted and garishly
attired women ani\ blatant, flashy men,
so frequently seen with similar exhibi
tions, the Washburn personnel is com
posed of real ladies and gentlemen of
quiet dress and pleasing demeanor,
who observe the, innate details of cour
tesy as regards the public; and the
familiar "Oriental dancers" and "girl
shows" are notable- for their absence.
New canvas, bright paint and varnish
and brilliant gilding embellish the out
fit, and the whole is artistically illumi
nated.
The Washburn animal arena Is the
centerpiece of the exhibition. Mile.
Flora, a "lion queen" of more than
average personal pulchritude, and
Princess Pauline, who handles a cage
of snarling leopards with smiling
aplomb and absolute fearlessness, are
the features of this department, while
Herbertine, with his den of lions, and
Professor Gardo, with his trained
polar bears, round out an instructive
and thrilling entertainment of about
an hour's duration. Oklahoma Bill's
Wild West, with its cowboys, Indians,
Mexicans, cowgirls, bronchos and
Texas steers; Hamburg's Athletic
Show, with a select corps of male and
female exponents of physical culture,
surrounding John Kilonis, the Greek
champion: the Coney Island Dream
land. the Miniature Jungle. "Tanngra,"
the Fat Family, "Ky-Lo," the D'Alma
Dog and Pony Circus, the Trip to the
Moon, the Ocean Wave, Ferris wheel
and carousel all did a rushing business
last night.
Taken all in all ,the Washburn ex
hibition is far above the average, is
well worthy of the large patronage it
is receiving, and the Moose will un
doubtedly Increase their exchequer
substantially by its engagement,—Ad
vertisement.
