the destruction of tlie entire business
section of Washington.
That Curran is alive is due alone
to the heroism of Patrolman Warren
Kilgorc, who. at the risk of his own
life, ran into the very middle of the
blaze and dragged out the unconscious
chief, who had been overcome by
smoke and had fallen into a hole at
the rear of the theater stage. In his
fall the chief sustained deep cuts, an
artery in one arm being: severed.
Later he directed his men from a cot
where he lay helpless.
I life, and if not overcome it produces
a feverishness and itching of the
scalp: th" hair roots famish, loosen
and die: then the hair falls out fast.
if jour hair has been neglected and
is thin, faded, dry, scraggy or too
oily, get a "5 cent bottle of Knowl
ton's Danderine at any drug store or
toilet counter; apply a little as direct
ed and ten minutes after you will say
this was the best investment you ever
made.
We sincerely believe, regardless of
everything else advertised, that if you
desire soft, lustrous, beautiful hair and
lots of it—no dandruff —no itching
scalp and no more falling hair—you
must use Knowlton's Danderine. If

JOHN T. OLMSTED JAMES MILHOUSE
Considerable favorable comment on
the addition to the personnel of the
law firm of Olmsted & St amm was
made to-day. The new members are
receiving' hearty congratulations l'rom
their friends.
William S. Snyder, the eldest mem
ber of the present firm was 'born at
Millerstown, Perry county. After
graduating in the high school of his
native town ho was graduated from
Millersville State Normal School and
Dickinson College. For four years lie
was principal of the Dunonnnon
schools. Later he studied law in the
office of James A. Stranahan was
admitted to the bar in 1902. Shortly
after his admission to the Dauphin
county bar he associated himself with
the firm of Olmsted & Stamm and has
been with that firm for more than
eleven years.
•lohn T. Olmsted is a native of Pot
ter county. After completing his
academic education at the Williams
port Dickinson Seminary he taught in
the Coudersport high school for five
years, lie graduated from Dickinson
school of law in 100!t and shortly aft
erward entered the office of Olmsted &

been associated.
I IHTERSTOTHE-EDITOR I
THE FULiIi CREW DAW
To tl:c Editor of the Telegraph:
At the several railway, and ferry
stations of Philadelphia and Cam
den. my attention has been invited to
a notice or appeal, printed in large
bold type, and posted by the controll
ing railfay company, to the voters for
the repeal of a law, entitled the Extra'
Crew Law It is presumed that ref-|
ercnces in fact is made to the Full'
Crew Daw enacted several years ago.,
The notice posted by the Pennsylva-1
nia Railroad states, in fact, "It is to:
the interest of the public, whose chief!
concern is good service and safety—
that the Extra Crew Daw now on the'
statute books he repealed." At thej
present time there is no law on the;
statute books of Pennsylvania or New]
Jersey entitled, or dealing with, an!
Extra Crew Daw, or one that might be I
literally interpreted as such. Appar
ently the title. Extra Crew Law. as
used by the Pennsylvania Railroad in
Its appeal, has been used for the pur
pose of confounding the public into
believing something which does not I
exist.
Referring, however, to the Full i
Crew Law at present on the statute i
books, and which It is believed is the]
law referred to by the Pennsylvania !
Railroad in its appeal to the voters, j
the following is the feature in the law j
prepared by the company: "When a
passenger train co'nsists of five or more!
passenger coaches, it is required that;
the crew consist of a conductor,
tfnr brakeman. one flagman, one en
gineer and one fireman, and if bag-i
gage car is attached, a baggageinas-1
ter shall occupy the same. Regard
less as to whether the train shall have '
ten or fifteen passenger coaches the I
crew must have the above as its com-!
plement, insofar as the law applies." 1

Some people are constantly annoyed
from one year's end to the other with a
Persistent bronchial rough, which is whol
ly unnecessary. Here is a home-made
remedy that gets right at the cause and
will make you wonder what became of it.
Get 2 J /2 ounces Pinex (50 cents worth!
from any druggist, pour into a pint bottle
and fill the bottle with plain granulated
sugar syrup. Start taking it at once.
Gradually hut surely you will notice the
phlegm thin out and then disappear al
together, thus ending a cough that you
never thought would end. It also loosens
the drv. hoarse or tight cough and heals
the inflammation in a painful cough with
remarkable rapidity. Ordinary coughs
are conquered by it in 24 hour's or less.
Nothing better for bronchitis, winter
coughs and bronchial asthma.

| makes a full pint—enough to last a
i family a long time—at a cost of only 54

with Pinex.
j Pinex is a special and highly concen
trated compound of genuine Norway pine
extract, rich in guaiacol. and is famous
I the world over for its ease, certainty and
promptness in overcoming bad coughs,
ihest and throat colds.
Get the genuine. Ask vour druggist
for *'2% ounces Pinex." and do not accept
inythinjj else. A guarantee of absolute

Mr. Olmsted was admitted to the
bar in September, 1909.. For the last
year and a half he has served as
referee in bankruptcy for the coun
ties of Dauphin and Perry.
Clarence 11. Miller was born at
Tunkhannock and educated at Alans
field Soldiers' Orphan School and
Mansfield State Normal School. After
ward he was superintendent of schools
of Xanticoke borough for fifteen years.
Then he studied law with John A.
Sittser and Henry Harding, of Tunk
hannock ,'and was admitted to the bar
in 1899. Mr. Miller served as a mem
ber of the House of Representatives
In the State legislature of Pennsyl
vania. session of 1897, having been
elected from the Third legislative dis
trict of Luzerne county, tie was ap
pointed assistant corporation clerk in
the ofllce of the Secretary of the Com
monwealth in 1 899 and occupied this
position until February 1, 1914.
tliuiM-s \V. Miiliousc was born in
Harrisburg, where he attended the
public schools. He entered the law
ollice of the late M. K. Olmsted in
1897 and has continued with the firm
of Olmsted & Stamm since that time
without interruption. He was admitted
to the Dauphin county bar in 1912,
issued a statement to the effect that,
by reason of this law, there is caused
a waste of $1,100,000 annually in the
employment of unnecessary men on
the Pennsylvania system alone. The
company's truthfulness is certainly to
be doubted in its statement of addi
tional cost. First of all, the Full
Crew Law requires one additional
member in the train crew, a flagman
or brakeman. The daily pay of such
| is $2.60 for all local runs and $.Ol t>-10
{per mile for the run from Philadel
phia to New York, etc. On that basis
jit would appear as if the Pennsylva
nia Railroad employs about 600 addi
| tional hands on its passenger trains.
| in view of the fact that there is not
I 500 full crews on the Pennsvlvania
I system. East of Pittsburgh and Erlt,
.the statement can very reasonably be
| doubted.
! The Pennsylvania Railroad appeal
: states, further, "Every train on this
j railroad has a full crew, and this ex-
I trji expenditure adds nothing to safety
or public convenience." Thanks for
] the Full Crew Law the trains have
! now a full crew. Prior to the enact
| nient of this law, when a train was
jmade up of engine, baggage car, and,
I say, ten passenger coaches, each
• coach seating eighty-four persons,
making a possible total of 840 passen-
Igers, was delayed by reason of one of
!the many possible causes of delay,
| such as broken air hose, wheel flange,
| engine disarrangement or brake down,
! etc., the first duty of the conductor
I was to seek the nearest telephone to
. communicate with the nearest tower
( or station in order to report the delay,
i Frequently this necessitated his ab-
I sence from the train for a period of
| half an hour or more, and also pos
sibly being half mile or more from
I the scene.
I'a sscngors I"nprotected
I The brakeman in the meanwhile is
j required to go back a safe distance,
j of about a third of a mile, In order
ito protect the rear of his own train
! and to flag any that may be follow
jlng. If a baggage car is attached and
I a baggagemaster in charge, it must
not be left alone under any condition, !
the rules of the company requiring i
the baggagemaster to remain in his
car at all times. Consequently the!
passengers on the train (possibly 840:
souls) are left unprotected and have
no one to warn or bar their way from I
wandering onto the tracks or other- '
wise jeopardizing their persons to in- '
jury or death from the many dangers!
surrounding them under such condi
tions. The Full Crew Law in a large I
measure reduces this liability of In- j
jury or death to passengers. Inasmuch
as the additional brakeman is left In
charge of the passenger coaches, |
warning the passengers of possible j
dangers in trespassing along the rail
road, and, also to supply information
to those desiring same. The addi
tional/ member of the crew is, there
fore. performing a double service, first
in warning passengers from possible
dangers, etc., and, secondly, in safe
-1 Riiarding the company's interests from
possible lawsuit due to carelessness
on the part of an unthinking pas
-1 senger.
With particular references to the
statment of the Pennsylvania Rail
road. to the effect that the additional
member of the train crew Is an un
necessary and needless expense, etc.,
brings out a very serious question, if
the addition of one brakeman (pay
' about $2.60 per day) to a train crew
having In charge from 400 to 1.000
souls is an unnecessary and needless
expense, why does the company al
ways add an extra member to the
crew when a private or business car
in attached to the train, is not the
additional member added In order to
provide safeguards to the occupants
jof the private or business car? it
j would be unnecessary to have an ad
'ditional brakeman to merely look after
,the car itself. A servant or porter
usually accompanies the car in order
lo provide for the needs of the of
ficial or special passenger. Conse
quently, if the additional brakeman is

Pull Crew Efficiency ,
Recently the Pennsylvania Railroad 1
issued a statement relative to its pas- '
scnger traffic. A part of the statement !
says that during the year 1913 it had 1
curried about 111,000.000 passengers, '
without a single fatality. What do >
tbev attribute this extraordinary good 1
record to? The company claims ef
ficiency of its employes. No mention 1
is mad® of the Full Crew Law. The
railway employes have always been
efficient, not only during the past few
years, but in the years prior to the
Full Crew Law. But prior to the
enactment of this law the records of
the railroad companies were not quite
near so good. The employes have not
let down the bars for safety, nor have
they been any more diligent than pre
viously. The only answer, therefore,
is the Full Crew Law. By its enact
ment additional safety has been placed
around the traveling public and the
tension lessened on the members of
train crews, thereby permitting them
to perform their duties with a clearer
mind, and with due regard to the de-
I mands of the occasion.
Another point that might be dwelt
tipon in connection with this law Is
In regard to rapidity of handling pas.
sengers in connection with local
trains. The average distance between
local stations does not exceed three
miles. With a vestibuled train of
I eight coaches there is a total of six
teen vestibule traps and doors to be
operated. The rules of the company
require these traps and doors to re
main closed between stations. Under
the old method there were only the
conductor and one brakeman to op
erate these traps and doors, while
under the present law there are three
employes to open and close the same.
Is it not obvious that three employes
can operate these doors more quickly
than two? Also, three employes can
more quickly assist passengers to
board or alight from the train, and see
that all passengers are in off the car
platform and, therefore, out of possi
ble danger from rounding curves or
crossing switches, etc.
It would be a very easy matter to
| cite numerous other reasons why the
'Full Crew Law should be maintained.
I but space will not permit. The trav
| unreasonable or unfair In the retain
-1 ing of this law on our statute books.
I The people ore entitled to it for pro
; tectlve purposes and the railway em
■ ployes need it in order that their du

permit them to perform their task

public. RAILROADMAN.
