Although he conducted as chairman
of the board of directors until recently
the operations of the United Gas Im
provement Company, which owns gas
and electric light plants, street rail
ways and water companies in various
cities from the Mississippi Valley to
the Atlantic Coast, Mr. Dolan had
practically retired from public activi
ties since the gas lease light in Phila
delphia in 1905.
The son of a poor toilgate keeper,
Mr. Dolan started his business life as
a clerk, entered the textile trade and
became one of the largest, manufac
turers of textiles in Philadelphia.
Later he went into finance and became
interested in street railways, in which
he made a large fortune. Mr. Dolan
was associated with P. A. B. Widener.
the late William L. Elkins and the late
William C. Whitney in many street
railway deals, notably in the Metro
politan Street Railway Company of
1 New York.
BOYD-PAYNE GOLF
MATCH TOMORROW
i
Reservoir and Country Club to
Meet For Sixth Time on
Former's Course
The golf teams of the Reservoir
Park and the Country Club of Harris
burp will meet at the Reservoir course
to-morrow afternoon for the sixth
match in the Boyd-Payne cup series.
The Reservoir has won three matches
and the Country Club two, and if the
Reservoir wins to-morrow it will have
the cup.
The arrangements for the match,
which has attracted much attention,
were made to-day. Play will begin at
1 o'clock in order t6 permit free use
of the links by those not on teams as
early as possible. While it is not the
intention to prevent other players
than the contestants from using the
course until after the match ends, yet
the match players will have at all
times the right of way on the links.
The Saturday afternoon rule forbidding
anything but twosomes will be strictly
enforced. The clubs' professionals, T.
J Dinan and Stewart MacEwen, will
act as referees. By reason of the
difference in play between the match
play of to-morrow's contest gnd the
medal play of the all-summer handi
cap club tournament, it is likely that
the latter will be called off for the
day, although it has not been definitely
determined.

SMITH iYNOT HUVE
TO STUM
fContinued from First Page]
t
madhouse—or end his life in the elec
tric chair.
Of all the murder trials that have
been listed in the Dauphin county
courts few have attracted more wide
spread attention than the Smith case
listed to-day. Consequently, despite
the unusual heat, Courtroom No. 1 was I
crowded when at 10.30 o'clock thisj
morning District Attorney Stroup
called Smith for trial.
Smith, in custody of a couple of
deputies, was brought from the Jail
just a few minutes after 10.30. That
the insanity plea was to be advanced
in some form had been the general
impression and the pale youth was the
cynosure of a good many eyes as he
appeared in the , doorway. He was
pale, and apparently cool.
To those who expected some sign
of mental unbalance, the action of
Smith as he stepped into the room
caused a little surprise; he calmly re
moved his cap and smoothed his
rather long wavy hair.
In tlic Row Behind the Bar
In the lirst row behind the bar rail
ing sat Smith's relatives, including his
mother and pretty sister. His father
sat at the counsel table with Attor-1
lieys John Fox Weiss and William H. |
Earnest. Across the table with Dis-1
trict Attorney Stroup was Assistant
District Attorney F. B. Wickersham
and County Detective Walter.
Before Smith was arraigned Mr. I
Weiss offered the motion asking for a
special jury to determine the ques
tion of Smith's sanity at the present!
time. If he were insane now the law,
Mr. Weiss said, wouldn't require or|
compel Smith to answer to a jury for
murder.
Witnesses could be produced, Mr. I
Weiss said, who had seen Smith, had
talked with him in the jail, members
of his family, friends apd others who
had seen him within the last few years
and some of the best insanity experts
and alienists in the State—witnesses
to the number of forty would be called
to substantiate the defense's conten
tion that Smith is insane, has been for
years and is gradually growing
worse.
District Attorney Stroup said he had
had no inkling of the defense's plan,
and did not know that the special
plea was to be made. Consequently
the Commonwealth, he said, was notl
prepared to fight the special plea peti- I
tion.
That started a wordy battle between
Mr. Weiss and Mr. Stroup, during
which some complimentary remarks
as to the respective abilities of each
as criminal lawyers and as prosecut
ing attorneys*were exchanged.
Stroup's Argument
District Attorney Stroup, however,
contended that he didn't feel like try
ing a man who was a lunatic.
Mr. Weiss said the District Attor
ney must have known that insanity
would be the defense. In answer to
Judge Kunkel's inquiry as to whether
or not Smith had ever been contined,
Mr. Weiss said that question had
caused frequent quarrels in the fam
ily; that Mr. 'Smith wanted him sent
to an asylum and Mrs. Smith, the I
daughter of the murdered man, re- j
fused to allow this.
And when the court had finally di
rected the continuance and Smith got
up to go back to Jail, a tearful woman
pose in the front seat of the court
room and threw her arms about the
youth's neck and kissed him. Then
she quietly cried into her kerchief as
the boy was led away.
The woman was Smith's mother. '

I NEW BLUE SERGES
| sls S2O $25 S3O
I Among the men of this community, as among men
everywhere, the blue serge takes a deservedly first place. No fabric spun can
% compare with it in point of service— of wear; and yet, as with all good things,
there are in addition to the genuine, the serviceable serges, shoddy cheap cloths
$K that unscrupulous dealers unload upon the unsuspecting, season after season.
B This Live Store has been known for years as the home of The Kuppen-
H heimer Blue Serge, and so large is the number of men whom we have Satis
l! factorily served with these goed clothes, that our label in a blue serge has become
I a "hall-mark" of quality.
