GAME BOUNTY LAW
MAKES! TANGLE
Enforcement Will Be Held Up
Until a New Bill Can Be
Drafted by Officials
Officials of the Statu Game t'ouirais
sion will probably be called together
within a short time to ilevise some
means of drafting a bill that will meet
the approval of Governor Martin G.
Brumbaugh for the specitic appropri
ation of the share of the revenue from
hunters' licenses to be devoted to game
protection and propagation. The Gov
ernor's veto of the Wobensmith bill
carrying an appropriation of $33 4,000
for salaries and expenses of the com
mission is declared to have tied up all
of the plans for establishing new game
preserves, :ind increasing the force of
game wardens from thirty to sixty as
provided in a bill just passed and to
have halted the movement to place
the bounty supervision in the hands
of the commission. A bill providing
1 hat all bounties shall be paid by the
State through the oltice of the Game
' 'ommission was approved by the Gov
ernor at the same time that he vetoed
the other bill. It is explained that
the funds at hand will not permit the
• ommission sufficient funds to start
The enforcement of the new act. It
was planned to get everything ready
«nd to start paying bounties on June
3, when the proposed appropriation
was to become available, in his veto
the Governor expressed the desire that
a bill that did not increase salaries,
but would provide for other expenses
of the commission should be drafted.
"What the game officials will endeavor
to find out is what the Governor wants
to do about expenses, whether they
should be carried In the general ap
propriation bill or put into a bill sep
arate from the specific appropriation
tor game protection and propagation.
The way it stands now they contend
that the new bounty law, designed to
■ heck frauds, cannot be enforced,
owing to lack of money.

"Little Mary Mack." a new musical

a millionaire to marry off his daugh

VIRGINIA WOMEN TO
AID "CAUSE" IRE
Suffragists From South and West
Will Participate in State
Campaign
Many prominent Suffragists of the
"West and South, who have already ob
tained the vote or who are able to
spare the time from their own States
because the campaigns there will not
begin in earnest until next year, have
volunteered to help in the campaign
in Pennsylvania. They are doing this
purely in the spirit of good comrade
ship.
Among the most distinguished of
these women is Mrs. B. B. Valentine,
president of the Equal Suffrage League
of Virginia, who is now speaking in
the vicinity of llarrisburg. She has
done more than any one other person
to overcome the conservatism that had
made manv people fear that the Old
Dominion State would never come to
look with favor on the idea of women
voting. Her womanly charm and con
vincing eloquence have been the chief
means of working this seeming miracle.
Vlmoxt Ostracised
"When we first started suffrage work
in Richmond, in 1910, we were almost
ostracized. It took fully six months
to make people realize that active suf
frage work had not made us Into mere
sensational notoriety seekers." said
Mrs. Valentine, in telling to-day of the
work In her State. "Our first task was
to convince the public that we had ab
solutely no militant intentions: that our
only desire was to point out the justice
of our cause and leave it to the con
science of the men folk to insure our
getting the vote.
"Education of the public and of the
future voters has been our main work.
We are anxious to get the men to rea
lize how much woman suffrage will
mean to them."
Mrs. Valentine and all of the other
Virginia suffrage workers are volun
teers. Mrs. Valentine has given up
most of. her social duties and has de
voted herself entirely to the cause.
PENNSY IN MARKET
FOR NEW EQUIPMENT
[Continued from First Page.]
McCaleb and other Philadelphia di
vision officials that benefits will come
indirectly as a result of this large
expenditure, because more equipment
means more repair work.
The invitation of bids to-day marks
practically the first equipment buying
of any magnitude by the Pennnsvl
vania for more than a year.
As in the past the other great rail
road systems of the East and West
are expected to follow in the footsteps
of the Pennsylvania. The Lehigh Val
ley recently announced it would let
contracts aggregating $1,000,000 and
the other carriers will no doubt follow
suit.
The Pennsylvania's order is the most
comprehensive of recent years. Be
cause of its magnitude it is expected
to stimulate activity in railroad circles.
The locomotives and most of the
cars will be built in the company's
own shops. This feature of tlie an
nouncement is one which will prove
encouraging to the thousands em
ployed In the railroad's shops at Al
toona, many of whom have been work
ing on short time.
Of significant ini nortance is the
statement that in addition to adding
onl> steel cars to its passenger equip
ment the com pail' intends to follow
a similar policy with reference to its
freight equipment, so that ultimately
every train on the Pennsylvania lines,
whether passenger or freight, will be
of nll-steel construction.
While the number of cars and loco
motives to be built exceeds recent or
ders. if was explained that there would
be no increase in the equipment. The
pew equipment will merely replace
that now in service.
The only equipment orders placed
with outside companies in 1914 were
for fifty locomotives from the Baldwin
Locomotive Works and for 1.000
freight cars with the Cambria Steel
Company. About the first of the pres
ent year the railroad placed its steel
rail order and its size forecast a big
eqoinmenf order.
The passenger equipment is divided
into 50 standard coaches. 34 combi
nation cars. 42 baggage and mail cars.
IS baggage and express cars and 5
horse express cars. i
Of the 10,000 freight cars bids will
be asked on 7.543 cars, which the
company plans to have built by out
side companies. The others will be
built at the shops and bids on ma
terial will be requested. All the cars
will be of steel. The freight car pro
gram calls for the following: 2,000
steel box cars. 2,300 gondola cars,
4.919 coal and coke cars, 224 refrig
erator cars and 102 flat cars.
The company plans to build In the
car shops at Altoona 1,000 of the box
cars, 1,000 of the gondola cars and all
of the refrigerator and Hat cars.
Since 190H, when the company an
nounced that all future additions and
replacement in its passenger equip
ment would be of all-steel construc
tion, it has provided more than .1.000
all-steel passenger cars, not counting
the all-steel Pulman cars in service
on the system.
About a month ago the Cumberland
Valley Railroad, a subsidiary of the
Pennsylvania, awarded an SBOO,OOO
contract for the construction of a
bridge across the Susquehanna river
at Harrisburg. This was the first large
construction contract let in a long
while.
The board of directors of the Penn
sylvania Railroad met on Wednesday
and it is believed that at that time
they passed upon the order, living it
their stamp of approval.
The company will to-day open bids
for the building of ninety of these
passenger cars, while Inquiries will
also lie made on prices for materials
for flic other fifty-six, which will be
built at Altoona.

PUBLIC SERVICE
BILLS JUHLYZE3
Series Drafted by Counsel Would
Make For Efficiency and
Economy in Work
Several bills amending the Public
Service Company law have been In
troduced into the legislature and in
the event of their passage they would
materially aid in expediting the work
of the Commission and would remove
j many causes of complaints that come
jl'rom parties interested in cases,
j One of them does away with the ne
cessity of obtaining approval of tho
I joint use of poles.
j Another precludes the necessity of
having 'every contract, that a public
service company makes with a muni
jcipality, Hrst approved by the Com
; mission. The amendment, however,
• retains the Commission's regulatory
| control over competition and retains
I'the same control over service and
rates which have been made the sub
ject of a contract with a municipality.
Another amendment gives the Com
mission the power to appoint examin
ers to take testimony and evidence
anywhere in the State. The effect of
this would be that people interested in
complaints could save the time and
expense of coming to the State Capi
tol.
The payment of witness fees, so as
to make the. State responsible only for
the payment of the fees of witnesses
who are summoned by the Commission
as distinguished from those summoned
by the parties, is regulated by another
bill. Under the present act the State
is obliged to pay the witness fees and
mileage of all witnesses summoned
under the subpoena of the Commis
sion even though they be a party to
the proceeding.
Another, and very important
amendment, gives the Commission dis
cretion to suspend rates proposed to
be charged, pending the determination
of their reasonableness.
These proposed amendments have
the approval of the Commission.
A bill amending the act will also
likely be introduced amending the
crossing provisions so as to do away
with the necessity of advance approval
of crossings other than those between
the railroads, street railways and high
ways, but it proposes to retain the
Commission's power to regulate all
crossing upon complaint or upon its
own motion.

FOREST FIRES IN
DAUPHIN COUNTY
Numerous Small Blazes Have
Caused Considerable Damage;
Reports of Other Fires
Forest tires which caused heavy loss
to the State and to timber owners last
Fall are commencing to be heard of
again at the State Department of For
estry anil the bills for fighting them
show that numerous blazes have oc
curred in the woods in the last three
weeks. Some tires have also been
reported from State reserves in I.y
coming and other central counties,
but as yet they have not been of very
great extent. The State forest service
Is watching conditions very closely
and with the aid of State police hopes
to be able to prevent much loss in the
event of a dry Spring.
Oddly enough, most of the bills
which have been received for fighting
fires not on State lands have come
from Dauphin county which has had
a number of small tires in the woods
in the Lykens valley. The State has
a big reserve in the upper end of
Dauphin county and steps to protect
it have been taken.
BEANS AND HOMINY
Take soup beans, and soak over
night in soda water. The next day put

cracked corn or hominy. Cook until
done, then dress with butter, salt and
