Ideal Football Weather Helps
the Openiag Games Today
Battles This Afternoon of Unusual Interest; Changes in
Many Teams; Central Starts With Elizabethville
Ideal football weather was handed
out to-day for the opening games.
Overcoats and wraps were a good
thing to have along this afternoon and
players found it an advantage to keep
moving.
While scholastic games were not so
numerous to-day, those on the sched
ule promised much interest. Steelton
High lost a game at Lancaster by can
cellation and with Coach Tapgert took
in the game at Island Park this after
noon. Central High's squad met Eliz
abethville High on the Island. Eliz
ahethville is new in the football game.
The team last year was the first rep

made good and this year, with more
experienced players starting the sea
son, splendid results are looked for.
Coach Paul Smith selected the fol
lowing line-up:

RUNNING FAR UP
Auditor General's Department In
dicates It Is Ahead of the
State Treasury, Too
Statements made to-day at the
State Treasury regarding the State
taxation work are to the effect that
Auditor General Powell has made a
larger number of tax settlements this
year than have been made In any
year since the department's creation
in 1791. Last year the number was
less than 28,500. This year, to Sep
tember 24. just 35.604 settlements have

It is stated that of the settlements

Among the settlements in the State
Treasurer's hands on September 1 and
which have not yet been returned with
his approval, are the large assessments
against the companies In the Lehigh
Valley system, which contribute heav
illy to the State's revenues.
School Payments
[ Payments to a total of $1,403,123.02
, have already been made to school dis
tricts this year, although disburse
ments were begun in August. In pre
vious years the mailing of ■ hecks was
not begun until later. At the close
|of 'lusiness on September 24 Auditor
| General Powell had approved war

'1 he requisitions, bearing his signature,
were sent to the State Treasurer last
Monday and are awaiting that official's
action. The counties in question are
Adams, Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver,
and Bedford.
Excitement Ran
High For a While
About Giant Safe
Much pleasureable excitement pre
vailed in the vicinity of the Central
Democratic Club and the headquar
ters of the Palmer-McCormick League
last evening between 8 and 9 o'clock
on account of certain mysterious
movements In North Court street. It
appeared that a safe large enough to
contain the whole State sinking fund
was being moved and as It came out of
the building containing the offices,
wind and ink bureau, treasury and
whispering rooms of the Democratic
State campaign committee had found
the huge oai'i too small to hold the
funds expected to be provided and
I that an even larger one was to be
installed.
Several sets of resolutions were
hastily prepared but before they could
be acted upon the melancholy fact
was learned that the safe was being
taken from a store whose owners had
failed and that the safe was on Its way
to parts unknown.

welcome and the spontaneous man

lack of interest displayed in the Dem

chot's side show.
Great Demonstrations
In speaking of the event the Phi
ladelphia Inquirer of to-day says: "The
j demonstration given Dr. Brumbaugh
and Senator Penrose at the theater
left little doubt as to the sentiment
of the voters in Ulair county. Many
of the most promintent citizens of the
place were present, including physi
cians. lawyers, ministers and other
professional men. The big shops of
ithe Pennsylvania Railroad located
i here were represented by a thousand
men. Many of the latter Dr. Brum
baugh met and shook their hands asi
they hurried from the works to pre
pare to go to the meeting. All the
surrounding towns sent big delegations
|to the gathering. From Tyrone came
j 200 in eight special trolley cars with
| a band. Huntingdon sent 200 and
a band also. This is Dr. Brumbaugh's
home town. They marched to the ho
tel behind a banner hearing this in
scription "Brumbaugh, Penrose and
the whole Republican ticket." Wil
liamsburg sent 500 in a special train.
A brass band and two orchestras ac
companied this delegation."
The staff correspondent of the Phil
adelphia Ledger wrote: "This has
heen Republican day in Altoona, also
it has been in an even larger sense
'Brumbaugh day.' Many party candi
dates are here and a number of them,
including the nominee for U S. Sen
ator, spoke last night, but the pivot
of interest is the candidacy of a native
and a favorite son of the valley for
the governorship. Not only are Re
publicans here by thousands, but the
Brumbaugh kinsfolk are here in force,
headed by their patriarch, the Rev.
George B. Brumbaugh, whose son has
worked his way from the ranks of a
district school teacher to the place of
foremost educator, and who is slated
for «Ull higher honors. It was Brum-

mands. he says, were that the general
conference pledge itself to re-establish
the national and State civil regimes
within thirty days after the confer
ence concludes its discussion; that no
present army officer shall be eligible
as a candidate fcr any elective office;
that the federal State legislature be;
j convoked immediately and that the!
electoral college be chosen for the
election of a permanent president.
To these demands General Carranza
replied that only the conference itself
was able to take up these questions.
Regarding the cutting of the rail
way lines north of Auguscalientes,
General Carranza says this is not a
hostile but a necessary act in view of
General Villa's warlike preparations,
if anarchy comes and blood is spilled
as a result of this the blame, he says,
is on the head of Villa.
Nearby garrisons are assembling for
transportation to Auguscalientes. It is
reported here that a special train will
leave Mexico City for Vera Cruz to
morrow night carrying passengers
booked on steamers to sal; for the
North. The gap in the railway line
to Vera Cruz, it is reported here, is
several miles in extent.
American Warships to
Go Into Mexican Waters
By Associated Press
Washington, Sept 26.—At the navy
department last night It was stated
that the battleships Rhode Island,
Texas and Minnesota had been ordered i
to Vera Cruz to relieve vessels now on I
duty there. These orders were issued !
two days ago before any word had i
reached Washington of the open rup-1
ture between Generals Carranza and
Villa
It was stated positively that no new
observation in Mexico waters was con
templated and that the only object in
sending the vessels to Vera Cruz was
to relieve vessels of the fleet.

several boys who came in a motor

baugh day. because from the advent
of the Doctor in the forenoon until the
last enthusiast sought his belated pil
low last night there was a personal
note in the candidate's welcome that
could not be misunderstood. Repub
licans of Blair county have been look
ing forward to September 25 for sev
eral weeks. It was to be the occasion
of a genuine old-fashioned Republican
rally and ratification, a demonstration
that would bring back into the fold
many of those who wandered away in
1912."
Brumbaugh's Speech
Dr. Brumbaugh's plea for a Repub
lican victory was particularly signifi
cant.
"Are you of Altoona satisfied with
conditions?" he asked. "Are you
working on as full time now- as you
desire? Are your coal bins filled for
the winter? Is your building society
paid up? If not, do you want condi
tions changed? You can readily
change them by putting into power a
Republican administration, which will
protect your interests and insure to
you the prosperity in the future which
you enjoyed under it in the past.'' j
The candidate repeated his assertion
that "in addition to a highly organized
and efficient public service there must
be added the quality of moral ser
vice."
"I am prepared," he said, "not only
to discuss every moral issue pertain
ing to this campaign but 1 am pledged
to myself to see to it that the moral
quality of our civilization shall be felt
everywhere in the administration of
the affairs of the Commonwealth."
Concluding his speech. Doctor
Brumbaugh said: "To this wide but
obtainable program of service, I in
vite the sympathy and the support of
all the good people of Pennsylvania
no matter to what party they may in
the past have given their support. 1
make this earnest plea, -not for any
personal gain or advantage to myself,
but in the earnest conviction that in
doing so I am serving in the loftiest
way the best interests of the people of
this imperial State.
Firm For I.ocal Option
There was a round of applause when
Doctor Brumbaugh renewed his dec
laration for local option. "I shall
stand for it to the end," said Doctor
Brumbaugh, "and when it passes I
shall sign it. That is where I stand
and I shall not permit any foolish.

Dr. Brumbaugh repeated that no
man could control his public duties or
direct his public thought. He repeated
his pledge to give the people not a
political administration but a business.
Plus a moral, administration. Trust

the hope that his public administra

Penrose Hits Palmer
Senator Penrose took a rap at Pal

the audience.
"1 challenge Mr. Palmer," he said,
"instead of going about the State
abusing the Republican party, Its can

the high cost of living. Let him ex

families. Do not be misguided by
statements that the tariff hits the cap

tariff is a vital question for the work
