Harrisburg went to York to-day for
two games. This series will even up
arrangements, and on the next trip,
Harrisburg and York will alternate
each day, as they did last season.
Word was passed to the young twirl
ers on the Harrisburg pitching staff
ytserday, that the goods must he pro
duced or there would be men secured
to take their places. The time is not
far distant when there must be a
pruning. Manager Cockill will give
Pat Regan the Steelton boy and Villa
nova star, a chance back of the bat.
He was out yesterday and will assist
Charley Miller.
It is also probable that Eddie O'Con
nor will be back in Harrisburg by the
close of the week. President Graham
has announced that Trenton has no
claim whatever on Cruikshank and
the popular player will remain with
Harrisburg. Crist is a certainty at
third, as he has been making good
with a vengeance. Announcement was
also made by Manager Cockill, that in
the future there will be no more bor
rowing and lending. Manager Zeke
Wrigley, of Trenton, it is said, tried
to double cross the local manager and
in the future it will be every man for
himself.
Allentown will be here Fridav and
Saturday.

Flil COUNTY
ALMSHOUSE HIT
Board of Public Charities Gets Re
ports That It Is in Bad
Condition in Part
Secretary Bromley Wharton was to
day directed by the State Board of
Public Charities to take up imme
diately with the Franklin county com
missioners the conditions in the alms
house at Chambersburg. The Lancas
ter county prison and the Sullivan
county prison will also be the subject
of official inquiry and steps taken to
secure abatement of conditions.
The conditions In the Franklin
county almshouse were reported on
a few days ago, an inspection having
been made on May 25. They are pro
nounced "generally unsatisfactory."
The accommodations for tramps are
reported as "poor and badly locatfed in
the two-story brick extension of the
main building, known as the insane
department. There is an Inadequate
water supply and only boards to
sleep on," says the report. "The base
ment has a very low celling and a
brick floor, and is dark and dirty." It
is stated that the ventilation is poor
and there are no toilet conveniences.
In the poor department It Is reported
that the lavatory accommodations are
not sufficient and not kept clean and
tidy. The negro quarters, which are
located in the old poor house, are
charged as being in a bad state of re
pairs and are "overrun with bed bugs,
rats and mice." The report also says
that the institution should have better
lire protection.
The Lancaster prison management
has been criticised and an investiga
tion as to Its methods will be made.
The Sullivan county prison conditions
were not improved when the county
commissioners were ordered to do so
on April 30. The Lawrence county
commissioners will also be asked to
better conditions In the New Castle
jail.

HOUCK FAR AHEAD
Combined Republican Vote at
Primaries Was Over 332,000
by Official Totals
More cause for discomfiture was
piled up last night for the distressed
bosses of the Democratic State ma
chine when the official totals of the
votes cast for State nominations at
the primary were announced. Last
week the twin bosses had barely fin
ished making speeches about a United
Democracy and harmony when the
storm broke over the trickery in refus
ing to allow the State committee to
have anything to do with the plat
form. ,
And last night the figures camp out
to show that in spite of the bitter fight
within their ranks and the tremendous
campaign, work done, the Democrats
mustered only 200,000 votes. Dr.
Brumbaugh, in spite of half a dozen
candidates against him for the Repub
lican nomination for Governor, polled
253,000. Not only was It shown that
Brumbaugh had 50,000 more than the
whole Democratic outfit, but Uncle
Henry Houck was renominated with
a total vote of 274,000.
The tremendous vote of the Repub
licans was perhaps very forcibly illus
trated by the fact that Penrose polled
219,000 and Dlmmick 112,000 in round
numbers, showing that the Republi
can strength on the big contest was
332,265, while the aggregate of the
Democratic vote on its great contest
was only a little over 200,000.

voted for the nomination of Dr. Mar
tin G. Brumbaugh on the Keystone
party ticket and 158 for Vance C. Mc-
Cormick. The scattering vote also
shows 9 Republican votes, 16 Prohibi
tion and 16 Washington votes for Mc-
Cormlck and 6 Democrats, 139 Wash
ington and 65 Prohibition votes for
Brumbaugh for Governor on those
party tickets.
Will CONSULT Oil
FUTURE COURSE
State Treasurer and Auditor Gen
eral Have Not Yet Decided
Whether to Appeal
State Treasurer R. K. Young and
Auditor General A. W. Powell will
consult with their attorneys regarding
the l'uture course in the State auto
[ mobile license case, and it may be
next week before they announce
whether they intend to appeal to the
Supreme Court or to pay money from
the million-dollar automobile fund so
that road maintenance work can be
pushed as said by Highway Commis
sioner Lligelow. Opinion on Capitol
Hill is divided whether they will ap
peal or, for the sake of securing road
repairs, pay the money and closely
scrutinize the bills.
The announcement of Judge Mc-
Carrell's decision has caused a general
demand all over the State that the
roads be repaired and that the ques
tions be considered as settled. Some
wild statements are being made to the
effect that the money will be used for
political purposs, but that charge
would be made If a Democrat hap
pened to be Governor. The fiscal of
ficers have control of every cent and
can stop any bill.
Auditor General Powell is still con
fined to bed and has not yet been able'
to read the opinion. Mr. Young will
consult his counsel.
People Want Good Roads
In an editorial commenting on the
tie-up of State funds for the improve
ment of the highways all over Penn
sylvania, the Philadelphia Public
Ledger to-day says:
"The Legislature appropriated the
automobile registration and license
fees to the State Highway Department.
The use of the money for the repair
and improvement of roads could have
been begun long ago had not court
proceedings tied the funds up. The
defeat of the bond issue 'makes the
need of this million dollars the more
exigent. There ought to be no further
delay, and there will not be unless
small politics outweighs the needs of
the State."

CHEERS FOR THE SEA BREEZE
Because a little low pressure area
dropped down over Canada, yesterday,
Harrisburg enjoyed a cool day, and the
easterly breezes Impelled thereby, com
ing in cool from the sea continue to
fan the city's cheeks to-day. While the
western part of the State Is submerged
under a temperature approaching 90,
the Atlantic coast as far west as Mid
dle Pennsylvania Is soothed by the
aforesaid sea breeze. Three cheers for
the sea breeze. Indications are that
comparatively comfortable weather will
continue for several days.

How to Make Your
Hair Beautiful
Ten Minute*' Home Treatment AVorku
Wonders, Stop* Falling Hair, Itch
ing Scalp nn<l Dandruff anil
Makes the Hair Soft, Brll
llant, lustrous and
Fluff >-
Better than all the so-called "hair
tonics" in the world Is a simple old
fashioned home recipe consisting of
plain Bay Rum, Lavona (de Composse),
and a little Menthol Crystals. These
three mixed at home in a few minutes,
work wonders with any scalp. Try it
Just one night and see. Get from your
druggist 2 oz. Lavona, 6 oz. Bay Rum
and % drachm Menthol Crystals. Dis
solve the Crystals in the Bay Rum and
Eour In an 8 oz. bottle. Then add tho
avona, shake well and let It stand for
an hour before using. Apply It by put
ting a little of the mixture on soft
cloth. Draw this cloth slowly through
the hair, taking Just one small strand
at a time. This cleanses the hair and
scalp of dirt, dust and excessive oil and
makes the hair delightfully soft,
lustrous and fluffy. To stop the hair
from falling and to make it grow again
rub the lotion briskly Into the scalp
with the linger tips or a medium stiff
brush. Apply night and morning. A
few days' use and you will not find a
single loose or straggling hair. They
will be locked on your scalp as tight as
a vise. Dandruff will disappear and
Itching cease. You will find fine downy
new hairs sprouting up all over your
scalp and this new hair will grow with
wonderful rapidity.
Any druggist can sell you the above.
The prescription Is very Inexpensive
and we know of nothing so effective
and certain in its results.—Advertise

Woman Suffrage and
Prohibition Booked
For Early Action
Special to The Telegraph
Washington, June 10.—Woman suf- j
frage, the prohibition amendment, j
conservative measures and the Moon!
bill, providing for new regulation in j
paying railroads for mall, were the;
subjects of consideration bv the rules i
committee of the House to-day. Urg- I
ed by the Administration and the re
sponsible Democratic House leaders,
the first two bills, of nation-wide in
terest, will be acted upon promptly
and made privileged, assuring consid
eration by the House in the next
month.
Representative Underwood, after a
conference with the President, forced
the action. He said it would be un
wise for the Democratic party to
dodge these two Issues, and that noth
ing but peril to the party would follow
the pigeonholing of woman suffrage
and the prohibition amendment. Rep
resentative Hobson, of Alabama, au
thor of the prohibition amendment
prohibiting the sale, manufacture and
importation of intoxicating liquors, Is
1 opposed to Its consideration at this
time.
The Democrats are more fearful of
the Issue than the Republicans. Some
of them have made up their minds to
vote against the prohibition amend
ment, but would prefer that the mat
ter should be delayed until after the
election.
Wants Fortune Used
to Purchase Cemetery
White Plains N. Y.. June 10.—An
unusual bequest is set forth in the will
of the late Daniel E. Merrltt. of Port
Chester, who directs upon the death of
his sister that, as a memorial, his large
fortune be used to establish a public
cemetery for the village.
Mr. Merrltt for nearly half a century
lived practically as a recluse with his
I aged and incompetent sister In Ridge
street, Port Chester. Miss Merrltt is
73 years old.
Under the will the big colonial house
where brother and sister Mved is to be
kept up and the servants and farm
employes are 'to be retained. The
document directs that the executors on
the death of the sister must turn over
to a board of trustees the residue and
income from the estate, which is esti
mated to be worth about $3,000,000,
to establish and maintain "The Mer
