ENGINEER MARRIES
■RISBIIRG GIRL
William P. Callaghan Is Wedded
to Miss Marguerite Kennedy by
Rev. Father Thompson
Miss Marguerite Marie Kennedy,
1520 Allison street, Harrlsburg, and
William Paul Callaghan, Steelton, were
married this morning at 8 o'clock in
St. James' Catholic Church. The Rev.
Father .1. ('. Thompson officiated.
The bride is a graduate of the Acad
emy of Sisters of Mercy, Philadelphia,
and attended Mt. St. Joseph's College.
She had been an employe of the De
partment of Health, Harrlsburg.
Mr. Callaghan is engineer in charge
of Steelton's public improvement jobs,
lie is a graduate of the Steelton high
school and Pennsylvania State Col
lege, class of 1908.
The bride wore a white crepe me
teor gown with chiffon underwaist
trimmed with white rosebuds and wore
a white leghorn hat. Her going-away
gown was of dark blue serge with hat
to match. She carried a bouquet of
lilies.
The maid of honor. Miss Helen
Shannon, wore a gown of pink crepe
de chine trimmed with sweelpeas and
a leghorn hat with pink trimmings,
and carried sweetpeas. Charles Cal
laghan, a brother of the groom, was
best man. The ushers were John

April Divorce Court's
Prettiest Libellant Was
Bitten on Her Shoulder
For more than an hour this morn
ing pretty Mrs. Minetta B. Butler,
Middletown, told Additional law Judge
S. J. M. McCarrell a mighty harrowing
story of the way her husband. Chris
tian 8.. had abused her throughout
the half a dozen years or more of their
marriage. Mrs. Butler told her story
at a continued session of April divorce
court.
The treatment to which Mrs. Butler
had been subjected ranged from
punches and pinches and bites on the
shoulder to the parading of an un
blushing blonde stenographer before
the indignant wife. On one occasion,
Mrs. Butler said, she saw through the
unlowered window shades into her
husband's office; the same stenogra
pher was very much at home there,
apparently, and, Mrs. Butler frankly
explained—very much decollete as to
apparel.
Butler did other things besides
flaunting his stenographer and thump
ing her, Mrs. Butler declared. Once
he chucked her mother's photograph
out of the window; on another occa
sion—after the court had ordered him
to pay her $5 a week for her support
—he had insisted upon her spending
most of that $5 for porterhouse steak
for himself. Nor was this all. To
prevent her having an girl callers, he
had rigged a lot of tiny bells beneath
the carpet on the stairway so that
anyone stealing up the steps would
announce their approach.

Columbia Shriners* Parade
LUTHER J. SCHROEDER
Columbia, Pa., April 21. —Noble* of
the Mystic Shrine to the number of
several hundred invaded this town last

Ladies' Night, which was held under
the auspices of the Lancaster County
Shrine Club. The famous Zembo
band and Arab Patrol of Harrlsburg
formed the principal attraction in the
big street parade that preceded the so
cial events in the State Armory. Hun
dreds of people lined the streets and
applauded the Shrlners as they
marched through the principal streets
almost under a canopy of red fire.
The decorations along the route were
pretty and gave the portion of the
borough through which the paraders
passed, a gala appearance.
The visitors were met at the station
by the local committee with Forestry
Commissioner Robert S. Conklln as
chairman. Luther J. Schroeder, who
Is assistant rubbon of Zembo Temple,
Harrlsburg, and prominent In Ma
sonic circles in Lancaster county, was
chairman of the general committee,
and dictated the events of the even
ing. It was the largest, gathering of
Shrlners ever witnessed In Columbia
and attracted many visitors to the
town.
TO PAY TRIBUTE TO
MAJOR BENT'S MEMORY
[Continued from First Page.]
I former head of the steel plant who
j accomplished so much in the making
I of the borough. «
j As the hands of the official steel
company clock reach 11 o'clock the
big siren that sounds Steelton's lire
alarms and marks the passing of time
in the busy borough will sound one
long, loud blast. At the same instant
the big whistle at the bridge and con
struction department, a mile nearer
the lower end of the plant, will join
its shrill voice in tribute to the man
whose hand formerly directed activi
ties at the big plant. Every minute
thereafter for live minutes the two
whistles will sound a single blast.
All Flags at Half-Mast
Throughout Steelton practically all
work will cease for this short period.
Every Hag in the borough will be low
ered to half-mast and remain there
until 11.05 o'clock.
To-day a number of old steel work
ers who were associated with Major
Bent when he was at the head of the
Steelton plant joined in obtaining a
handsome Moral tribute which will be
sent to Philadelphia this evening.
Many prominent residents of Steelton
will attend the funeral.
J... E. McGinnes, superintendent of
the Steelton schools, to-day ordered
the principals of the various schools
to lower all flags to half-mast. In
doing so he paid a glowing tribute to
Major lSent's activities in behalf of the
Steelton schools.
His letter to the principals is as fol
lows:
"Owing to the death of Major Ou
tlier S. Bent, which occurred at his
home at Overbrook. Pa., Monday, the
request is hereby made that the flags
on all of our public schools be placed
at half-mast on Thursday, the 22d
instant, the day of his funeral.
"Major Bent was president of the
school board for nine years, from the
organization of the borough in 1880
to 1889. To his generosity and far
sightedness mort than to the influence
of any other individual Is due the
system of schools that Steelton pos
sesses. All the boys and girls that
ever came In touch with these schools
owe a lasting debt of gratitude to
Major L,uther S. Bent. Very respect
fully.
"I-. E. M'GINNES,
"Superintendent."

German Paper Attempts
to Predict Trouble Here
By Associated Prist
Berlin, April 21, via I>ondon, 12.48
P. M.—The Post in an editorial article
entitled "The American Troubles"
casts doubt upon the genuineness of
the accident which caused the ground
ing of the Japanese cruiser Asama in
Turtle Bay. Lower California.
The paper says there are two pos
sible explanations of this incident.
One is an effort to put pressure upon
Washington to relieve the situation
at Peking, while the other is an at
tempt to secure a naval base In Mex
ico. This would touch America's
sorest point, the paper says, namely,
the Monroe Doctrine. America must
either give Japan a free hand in China i
or demand that Japan leave Mexico.
This would mean war."
Continuing, the paper says:
"Germany would view such a war
with mixed feelings. While we do not
desire a victory of the yellow race
over the white, nevertheless America
has no claim to the love or respect of
the Germans. We would be satisfied
to know that this country, which first
became a state at an expenditure of
Oerman blood and German energy,
should, from its political condition of
unsympathetic contentment, c,pme to
know the bitter necessities of war."
New Central Principal
to Be Elected Tomorrow

SUPERVISORS IN COLLUSION ?
Appeal for New Trial Says Court Erred
in Greenberit Case
Allegations of collusion on the part
of the Mifflin township supervisors
and the E. 1... Greenberg Iron Com
pany and the fact that the court erred
in refusing to admit this testimony at
the first trial are among the chief
reasons set forth in the appeal for a
new trial in the recent assumpsit suit
brought by the Greenberg company
against the supervisors.
The petition contends that the su
pervisors accepted a check for SIOO
and all car fare and hotel expenses
to Terre Haute, Ind., to inspect some
pipe that the company had put down
there. The same company sold the
supervisors the pipe that, was used on
the township roads, the bill for which
the township auditors refused to O K.
Consequently the matter was threshed
out in the courts and the supervisors
won out.

STUDY AND EXERCISE
Study does not hurt a child unless
the study time is taken from time that'
should be spent In out-of-door exer-
Overstudy and lack of exercise maka
thin, bloodless children. It is a com
bination that provokes St. Vitus' dance.
If your child is thin and pole, list
less, inattentive, has a Hckle appetita
and is unable to stand still or sit still,
you must remember that health Is
even more important than education.
See to it at once that the patient
does not overstudy, gets at least two
hours out-of-door exercise every day,
sleeps ten hours out of every twenty
four and takes a nonalcoholic tonio
like Dr. Williams' Pink Pills until th«
color returns to cheeks and Hps and
the appetite becomes normal.
For growing children who become
pale and thin Dr. Williams Pink Pills
are not only safe hut in the great ma
jority of cases they are the very bett
tonic that can be taken. They build
up the blood and strengthen the nerves
and assist nature In keeping pace with
rapid growth.
The Dr. Williams Medicine Com
pany. Schenectady, N. Y., will send you
two books on the blood and nerves if
you mention this paper. If your child
la very young ask for the booklet "Tha
Care of the Baby." Your own druggist
sells Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. —Adver-i
