Steelton High Moves to the Front
as a Season's Champion
ship Contender
One new record for scoring and an
other victory for Steelton High wero
the features In Saturday's scholastic
(tames. The new record was hung up
by the Harrisburg; Academy five in
their defeat of the Lewistown Pre
paratory School by a score of 104 to
10. These figures have never been
reached by an Academy team and
broke all former scholastic scores.
Academy tossers made the game in
teresting despite its one-sidedness by
remarkable goal shooting. Bennett
was the star in this line. Lewistown
was unable to get near the goal until
near the close of the game, when the
Academy eased up. Redde and and
Fisher played the best game for Lewis
town.
Winning from Tamaqua five by a
score of 31 to 14 gives the Steelton
High tossers further right to be con
sidered in this season's championship
race. At the go-off this season Steel
ton was picked as a tail-end five, but
the brilliant work by this bunch within
the past two weeks brought Steelton to
the front as a strong contender. In
Saturday's game McNulty and Wolford
did all the scoring for Tamaqua. The
Steelton stars wero Crump, Staraslnic
and Dayhoff. Between the halves the

"The past year has been a bad one
for the diamond trade and the De
I Beers Company will probably pass Its
dividends at the close of the fiscal
year ending June 30 next."
Such was the statement of Chair
man Francis Gates at the annual
meeting of the De Beers shareholders.
Diamonds arc a luxury, said the
: chairman, and not only the demand
has been less, but prices have been
lower as the result of the war. The
[company soon may have to close down
entirely owing to the fact that there
is already a large stock of diamonds
on hand.

GOVERNOR TENER
BOOMED FOH ISIS
Farewell Dinner Given by Harris
burg Citizens Big Demonstra
tion For Executive
Governor John K. Toner was
praised tor the constructive work of
his administration and boomed for
election again in 1918 at a farewell
dinner given in his honor at the Har
risburg Cluo on Saturday night. The
dinner was unique in that it was,the
first of the kind given by HarrisburK
ers to a retiring Governor in many
years and elaborate in every appoint
ment. The idea of the dinner origi
nated with a number of personal
friends of the Governor in the Hai
risburg Club and men with whom the
Governor had been in contact during
his term were invited. It \yas twice
as large as planned.
About the board gathered men of
prominence in the life of Harrisburg
and some from a distance, who came
to honor the Governor who will re
tire to private life next Tuesday after
a most successful administration.
There were men of every shade of po
litical belief and they all cheered the
suggestion that the Governor return.
This came in the form of a song
arranged to the tune of "Tipperary"
and the closing lines of the chorus
were
"There's a hope in every heart here
That you'll be Governor again."
When the song was sung as a solo
everyone rose to the chorus and
cheered the idea to the roof. This
thought also ran through the speeches
of the evening and the Governor was
called upon to say whether lie would
accept the nomination. He smiled ana
said that he enjoyed his resi
dence in Harrisburg and thoroughly
appreciated the tribute of the evening
as well as the honor of being guest at
the dinner.
William M. Donaldson, president of
the club, was toastmaster and his ref
erence to the Governor was heartily
applauded and cheered. The speakers
of the evening were President Judge
Georgo Kunkel, Judge S. J. M. McCar
rell, Mayor John K. Royal, Adjutant
General Thomas J. Stewart, ex-Seiyi
tor John E. Fox, Samuel Kunkel and
Charles H. Bergner, others being
called upon for impromptu remarks.
The decorations were Southern snil
lax and roses. The whole banquet
hall was hung with smilax and the
gallery was hung with flags, the State
flag being over the choir of honor.
The souvenirs were red leather book
lets bearing the Governor's signature
on the cover and containing a hand
some picture. That presented to the
Governor was signed by everyone of
the diners.
The dinner afforded many an op
portunity to say good-by to the Gov
ernor and to express their approval
of his administration.
The roses which decorated the table
were sent to Mrs. Tener with the
compliments of the diners.
Seated at the head table were the
Dauphin Judges, the Mayor, the Ad
jutant General,' Charles H. Bergner,
Dr. Hiram McGowan, William Jen

Dr. Graves has been characterized by

der that England, realizing his knowl
edge of German military secrets, was
willing to grant him his liberty. His
services to Britain more than repaid
her for her liberality.
As early as last May. Dr. Graves, ad
dressing a meeting in New York City,
said postively that Europe would lie
plunged into a general war before Au
gust was well in. He was ridiculed
at the time. but subsequent events
proved the accuracy of his statements.
Dr. Graves' lecture promises to be

Graves has such facts, and will tell of
many of them in his talk here to-mor

F.THGI, HAHHYMORE
Extremely welcome announcement is
made of the coming engagement at the
Majestic Theater, for one performance
on Friday evening, January 15, of Miss
Ethel Barrymore, who returns In a new
play called "The Shadow." The latter
is the work of Dario Niccodemi and
Michael Morton, the former the author
of several French successes produced
by Madame Hejane and the latter best
known as the author of "The Yellow
Ticket." Miss Barrymore's new play
was originally written in French for
the use of Rejane, but the intolerable
war conditions now prevailing in Paris
made It possible for Charles Frohman
to obtain it for present production In
this country with Miss Barrymore in
the leading role. "The Shadow,' In its
French version named "L'Ombre," was
translated Into English bv Mr. Morton.
Bruce Mcßea, recalled for his earlier
association with Miss Barrymore, In
"Sunday," "Lady Frederick," "Cousin
Kate," and others of her notable suc
cesses, is entrusted with the leading
male role. Surrounding players are:
Grace Ellisten, Ernest Lawford, Edward
I'ieidlng, Amy Veness and Vera Pole.
The scenes of "The Shadow" are laid In
the wealthy residential and art districts
of Paris.—Advertisement.
FIELD'S MINSTRELS
"Minstrelsy of the Better Kind" is a
line in the reading matter of Al. G.
Field. It would be permissible to add
"Minstrelsy of the Rapid Fire Kind."
The jokes, songs, dances and scenic sur
roundings all move with that swiftness
pleasing to the spectator. From the
rise to the descent of the curtaifT that
shuts out of view as pretty a stage
picture as ever devised, the rapidity
of action is kept up. Field's Minstrels
comes to the Majestic Monday, mati
nee ad night.—Advertisement.
ORPIIEUM
It's a triple headline Keith show that
the Orpheum presents this week and
a glance over the blf names that are
comprised throughout the offering Is
pretty near enough to convince one
that the galaxy of stars will provo a
sure-fire lilt. Not the least of the at
tractions is Bert Lamont's Cowboy
Minstrels, a troupe of seven Western
ers, who offer a festival of fun and har
mony in a delightful stage setting rep
resenting a realistic glimpse of the ro
manltc West. A second feature attrac
tion is entitled "A Breath of Old Vir
ginia," Joseph Hart's newest produc
tion, that is described by critics as be
ing the season's most successful scenic
novelty. This act is admirably mount
ed and played by a cast of five promi
nent Broadway names, headed by Miss
June Keith, late feature of "Stop
Thief." Another act of headline im
portance is that of the Moneta Five, an
exquisite vocal and Instrumental act.
Three women and two men comprise
the quintet and their offering, which Is
staged along the most modern lines, is
an artistic treat. Smith, Cook and
Branden, two men and a woman, are
to appear in a clever comedy variety
act of singing, talking and dancing';
the Three Gaudschmidts will offer a
spirited turn of clever fun and sensa
tional tumbling; Viola Gillette and Ned
Monroe will present a comic opera
skit called "The Silent Opera." One or
two other clever turns will complete
the roster. —Advertisement.

"At one point we were close enough
to hear the intermittent spitting of
the machine guns. Here we came
upon the line of secondary trenches
and were invited to enter. In the
jmarvelously constructed underground
rooms we saw the soldiers then off
duty gathered around smalt fires and
singing.
"Our objective was the field hos
