LIFE CONSERVATION
WILL BE EXHIBITED
Panama Commission Votes $20,-
000 For Department of Health
to Make a Showing
The Pennsylvania Panama-Pacific
Exposition Commission decided yes
terday to set aside $20,000 for the use
of the State Health Department in
making an exhibit at the exposition,
showing the wonderful progress made
by that department In the conserva
tion of life and health In Pennsylvania
since the inception of the department.
The fact that Pennsylvania was se
lected by the exposition officials to
give the only exhibition of this kind
is considered quite a high tribute to
the State's Health Department and a
notable recognition of the wonderful
work it has been doing.
Dr. Dixon will immediately employ
every means to have the exhibit ready
for the opening of the exposition, and
one of the largest spaces in the Edu
cational Building has been alloted for
the purpose.
The commission approved contracts
for several large mural decorations
for the interior of the building, as well
as for grading and beautifying the
grounds around it. Bids were also
opened and the contract let to Straw
bridge & Clothier, of Philadelphia,
for the furnishings in the building
for $3,522.09. This firm was the low
est of twelve bidders. The commission
also let the contract for heating ap
paratus for the building to a San
Francisco tirm for $343. the heating
appliances, etc., being leased, rather
than purchased outright, which will
mean a considerable saving to the
State.
A superintendent of construction is
overseeing the work of construction,
as required by law, and is reporting
to the commission from time to time
of progress made.

ORPHEUM
T.ew Dockstader, who arrived in our
midst on Mondav afternoon, and who is
appearing at the Orplieutn all week,
wishes it impressed upon the public
that he is not here merely for the pur
pose of acting at the Orpheum, al
though he is being greeted there by
large audiences at each performance.
"In the first place," said Dockstader.
"1 am not an actor. T am a plumber. I
shall appear at the Orpheum as an
honorarium. Much as it pains my ar
tistic soul to accept money, I shall per
mit the Orpheum management to pre

with a certain percentage of the re
ceipts netted at my lectures. I appear
on the Orpheum stage not to amass
vulgar gold, which I despise, but to
reach the great body of the common
people. Sec. Bryan and myself find
that our ordinary routine of duties
does not nut us in close enough touch

what it means, but it is fat and Juicy

common people through the Chautau

"THE TF.XTH COMMANDMENT" AT
Tilß PALACE
The action briefly told, relates to the
conditions arising in the home of a
young doctor which caused his wife to
leave him. She was selfish and demand
ed more attention from her husband
than he could conscientiously give. In
cidentally. there was a nurse In the
employ of the doctor, of whom the wife
believed she had reason to be jealous.
When the final separation came be
tween the doctor and his wife there
was another man. Brown, who coveted |
the wife for himself.
However, the only thing Brown
managed to do was compromise the
name of the wife sufficiently to turn
the heart of the husband against her
when the baby came. She had returned
to her mother.
Time came when the young doctor
received a phone call to attend a little
girl who had been accidentally shot.
This child was his own, though he
never discovered It until he arrived at
the hotel and met his wife face to
face. And so fate would have it Brown
was there, too. However, at the urging
of the nurse, the doctor performed the
operation, believing the child was not
his, but Brown's. During this opera
tion. fire breaks out In the hotel. The
doctor and the nurse must complete the
operation. That is where we get the I
big suspense. AVhen all is done the
nurre lies dying on the lawn outside, a
victim of loyalty, and the doctor under
stands aright. The wife has learned
her lesson, while Brown has paid for
his villainy with his life.—Advertise

PALMER THUMPED
II HIS DISTRICT
Penrose Says That Democrat Drew
Up the Low Tariff Metal
Schedule at Washingtou
Before a crowd of more than 1,200
voters, principally iron and steclwork
ers, Senator Boies Penrose at a po
litical rally in South Bethlehem last
night attacked his Democratic oppo
nent, A. Mitchell Palmer, in Palmer's
home district, as the author of the
metal schedule of the Democratic
tariff law. Northampton county Re
publican leaders declared after the
meeting that Penrose would carry
the county over Palmer. Senator Pen
rose was greeted by a big delegation
of Republicans when he arrived in
South Bethlehem, including party
workers from the Bethlehems, Free
mansbuTg, Alleritown, Hellertown,
Easton and other points in Lehigh and
Northampton counties.
Municipal Hall, where the meeting
was held, was packed when Senator
Penrose arrived. He was presented by
Dr. Henry S. Drinker, president of
Lehigh University, who emphasized
the Senator's prominence in the Senate
and his effective service in behalf of
the industries of Pennsylvania.
"My Democratic opponent, Mr. Pal
mer, is not talking much about the
metal schedule of the Underwood
tariff law," said Senator Penrose.
"Soon after that measure was enact
ed, he declared that he gloried in the
fact that he had taken a prominent
part in its preparation and passage.
Now that it has thrown thousands of
iron and steelworkers in South Beth
lehem and throughout the State out
of work, Mr. Palmer in his political
speeches discusses only candidates on
the Republican ticket. By abusing
these candidates he hopes to divert
attention from the destruction his
tariff bill has caused. But he cannot
fool the wage-earners of this State.
He will be the worst beaten candidate
who has gone before the people of
Pennsylvania for a State oflice in
years."
Senator Penrose is to-day in Chester
county, where he has speaking en
gagements at Parkegburg, Coatesville
and other points.

GIBBONEY THUMPS
SOME OETRAGTORS
Famous Philadelphia Reformer
Writes on Charges and
Counter Charges
D. Clarence Gibboney, the Philadel
phia reformer, has replied to a letter
received from Charles Calvert Kllis,
ol" Juniata College, Huntingdon, in
which he repudiated an attack made
upon Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh. Re
publican nominee for Governor, by an
Anti-Saloon League publication . This
paper charged that not even Dr.
Brumbaugh's closest friends "could
point to anything he has ever done in
the war against rum."
Dr. Ellis, among other things,
wrote:
"I happen to know that he asked
the removal of every such place with
in a square of a schoolhouse in Phila
delphia. It occurred to mo that you
might be willing to tell what you know
on this matter in an open letter.
"It is too bad for good people to
he misled by such statements from
such a source. I felt that your own
similar experience and sense of fair
play might impel you to speak on this
matter, as you can, with authority."
Mr. Gibboney, in a lengthy reply,
pays a tribute to Dr. Brumbaugh, and
among other things says:
"From my position as president of
the Law and Order Society of Phila
delphia and with recourse to its rec
ords and from my personal experiences
with him I ifcm able to say to you and
to the citizens of Pennsylvania that
Dr. Brumbaugh has been made the
victim of misrepresentation, either
willful or accidental, in the statements
which you quote.
"On every occasion when the Law
and Order Society has been called
upon to oppose a new or renewal
liquor license in the neighborhod of
a public school, we have had the most
hearty co-i»pcration and assistance
from Dr. Brumbaugh in every phase
of the proceedings, and it was fre
quently due to consultations with him
and the advice and assistance which
he freely gave that our efforts were
crowned with success and the public
schools of this city have been kept al
most wholly free of nearby saloons.
"In these maters Dr. Brumbaugh
did not wait for others to take the
initiative, but with characteristic en
ergy assumed it himself. It has not
been more than three years ago that
Dr. Brumbaugh wrote a letter to the
judges of the License Court presenting
strong arguments in support of his
suggestions that the court establish it
as a permanent proposition for its fu
ture guidance that no liquor license
be granted for any property within a
radius of at least a city block of any
public school.
"That Dr. Brumbaugh's candidacy
does not represent such tactics is a
tribute to him and to the voters who
nominated him and must be (he cause
of complete satisfaction to the thou
sands of citizens whose votes on No
vember 3 will eelct him Governor of
Pennsylvania by an overwhelming
majority."
