WEDNESDAY EVENING, APRIL 21
ARBOR DAY AT WII.DWOOD
THE school board and the park
authorities are to be commended
for the co-operation that is to
result in a great Arbor Day dem
onstration in Wlldwood Park next
Thursday when 5,000 school
children are expected to participate in
the setting out of as many trees.
Every school boy and girl who at
tends the ceremonies will be permitted
to plant a tree—that is, place it in the
hole prepared for it while workmen
lill in the earth. It will be a pleasant
thing for these youngsters in future
years to point out "their trees" in the
park.
The park officials have displayed ex
cellent judgment in their choice of
trees. The pines and spruces are al
most extinct in the park and the plant
ing of 5,000 of these will give them a
fresh foothold and add greatly to th'e
beauty of the resort in years to come.
Another effect of the Arbor Day
celebration will be to Introduce to
"Wlldwood hundreds of little folks who
once they know it will love it, but who
have never bad opportunity or in
clination to become acquainted with
its broad reaches of field and forest,
its fine woodland and water views and
>1 ho beauty and the charm that make
1t the delight of all frequent it.
It appears that soma of Roosevelt's
remarks concerning Barnes were not
only Pickwickian but algebrUic. The
Colonel was always original.
TOO EARLY TO HOPE
HOPIO expressed in some quarters
that the defeat of Villa in
Mexico may witness a cessation
of hostilities there is premature.
It is too early to forecast the results of
the campaign that at present appears
to be going against the heretofore in
vincible Villa. The brigand chieftain
has survived so many hardships and
lirs extricated himself from so many
difficult positions that it is not safe to
predict the ultimate outcome of the
present fighting.
Let them call us anarchists, if they
choose, but we want to declare openly
and in strong terms' against the law

CAMP CURTIN MEMORIAL
THE State and National Govern
ments not having seen fit to
properly mark the site of his
toric old Camp Curtin, it is by
no means unfitting that the congrega
tion of the Curtin Heights Methodist
church should rename its organiza
tion and erect a new church building
to be known as the Camp Curtin Me
morial Methodist Church.
The site of this edifice will be al
most the very center of the great
camp from which so mapy thousand
boys in blue went out to lay down
their lives for the Union. It will mark
for all time the noted encampment,
the location of which has been well
nigh lost In the rapid growth of the
town that has swept out over the open
Yields above Maclay street, where for
merly was the tented military city,
and has transformed them into popu
lous, closely-built residence districts.
Perhaps some day a proper monu
ment in the form of a memorial arch
or a statue of Andrew Curtin, for
whom the camp was named, will be J
erected at Sixth and Maclay streets,
the entrance to the camp, but there is
no movement of that kind afoot, so!
that the Camp Curtin church will, in
all likelihood, stand for years as prac
tically the only memorial of its kind.
There are those who would do away
with the public school vacation In
summer time. A man with a disposition
like that could drink vinegar and
Bweotcn his disposition.
MINERS AND COMPENSATION
SENATORS BEIDLEMAN AND
M'NICHOL were justified in mak
ing their fight yesterday to have
the anthracite mine workers in
cluded in the benefits to follow the
enactment of workmen's compensation
laws. Tbe amendments they caused
to be Inserted in the anthracite
code ought to be extended to the men
of the bituminous fields and no doubt
will be at the proper time.
It would be wrong to pass a com
pensation law that would require the
small manufacturer and the employer
of a. limited number of men in occu
pations not generally considered
h«**rdous to come beneath its pro
vision*, u,d at the same time would

and to employers thus discriminated

He had the nerve to talk peace before

MAJOR BENT'S DEATH
THE death of Major Luther Sted
man Bent removes from life's
activities one of the most pic
i turesque figures of what are
now looked upon as the "early days"
of the iron industry ln this country—
i for it was not until he and others like
him loomed large on the horizon o?
the steel world that the wonderful
developmerrt of the industry as wo
now know it began. He was at once
a type of the old-time manager, whose
personality was a factor entering into
the lives of the entire working for«e
under him, but he was as well one of
these far-seeing pioneers who blazed
the way for the great growth that has
attended the corporation with which
his name will be identified always.
Major Bent, like Carnegie, Rocke
feller, the elder Armour and many
others of that type, came up from the
ranks and he lived in a day when it
was the part of the general manager
to know personally the men under
him, to mingle with them and to occa
sionally take a hand in the actual op
eration of the plant. His powerful
personality and wonderful magnetism
were at their best in that kind of work,
but he was no mere "outside" manager
for all that, and few there are who in
their day enjoyed a broader, more
comprehensive knowledge of the steel
business than he.
Although long out of active manage
ment of affairs at Steelton, he is never
theless remembered there as one of
the most influential and powerful fig
ures ever associated locally with the
conduct of the Pennsylvania Steel
company.
What a happy world this would be
if all the "kickers" would turn their
energies thus employed to "swatting"
flies. •
WILL YOU HELP
STATE FIRE MARSHAL JO
SEPH L. BALDWIN, in a re
cent bulletin, asks the- co-op
eration of the public in the work
of lire prevention to which his de
partment Is devoted. In view of the
fact that Harrisburg within the past
few days has suffered severely from
the effects of lire his advice ought to
have the attention of everybody. He
says:
The season for Spring houseclean
insr will soon arrive. During the
I winter much useless material may
lia-ve accumulated and been stored
away.ln closets, cellars, attics or
other out of the way places just to
get it out of sight until the Spring
clean-up. This should not be; it is
a dangerous practice. There should
be no packing away of useless ar
ticles or other material of inflam
mable nature. All such should be
immediately removed and destroyed.
If this is done it will make liouse
cjeanlng much easier and lessen the
cause of many fires. Use care in
getting rid of rubbish. If burned,
do not do so on a windy day; nor
should it be piled near a building.
.Be sure not to leave a smouldering
fire. A few sparks from a rubbish
fire may fall on a roof and cause
a destructive fire. Won't you adopt
the plan of having a Clean-Up Day
every day and help reduce the lire
waste, which is of such enormous
cost, not only to you, but to all your
neighbors. Help in the good worlc.
Mr. Baldwin is right. The Board
of Health, which has taken hold of
the clean-up work in Harrisburg,
ought to be heartily supported. Much
can be done by the private citizen in
this direction. All the forces of Har
risburg ought to be organized for co
operation in freeing the city from the
refuse of winter that not only invites
fire, but harbor germs that warm days
will breed by the million.
PARK CONCERTS
HARRISBURG owes a debt of
gratitude to the newly organ
ized Hand Concert Association
for the arrangement of fifteen
band concerts at Reservoir park dur
ing the coming summer.
There is no more delightful way of
spending a summer evening than lis
tening to a good band on the cool
slopes of Reservoir park, but the city
has had all too few of such entertain
ments during the past several years.
The fault has been'chiefly that the
duty of raising the necessary money
did not lie properly with the park au
thorities and there was nobody else
authorized to take up the work. The
Concert Association was formed dur
ing the winter as a result, and its
members have pledged themselves to
procure sufficient subscriptions to
make the concert season possible.
They desorve all the support they will
need. No doubt they will find little
difficulty In obtaining the necessary
funds.
"Prosperity Is returning," is the way
a headline reads in a Democratic news
paper of to-day. Why, how's this? We
thought the Democratic papers had
been insisting all along that the coun
try never has been anything but pros
perous.
One man who will oppose a change
of administration is Uouis Brandeis.
lie's an almost-President now who
might not carry so much weight nor
pull down such big fees if Wilson is
not re-elected.
The number and extent of the forest
fires now raging leads one to the be- 1
lief that after all Pennsylvania's wood- !
lands are far from being as nearly ob
literated as some conservationists
would have us believe.
AX EVENING THOUGHT
Cleave then to the sunnier side of
doubt.
And cling to Faith beyond the
forms of Faith;
She reels not In the storm of war
ing words,
She brfghten* at the clash of
"Yes" and "No."
She sees (he Best that glimmers
through the Worst,
She feels the sun is hid but for
a night,
She spies the summer through the
winter bud,
She tastes the fruit before the
blossom falls.
She hears the lark within the
songless egg,
She finds the fountain where they
wailed "mirage.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
["EVENING CHAT I
T .Through the presentation to State
Librarian Thomas Lynch Montgomery
or the We of the Commonwealth of
J* 1 ® rattlesnake" flag of the Westmore
land County Provincials Pennsylvania
secures what is regarded as the oldest
American liag and it will be preserved
lor all time in the Capitol. The flag
is one which is familiar to every school
boy because it bears the famous le-.
gend "Don't Tread on Me" with the
rattlesnake that was adopted as one of
tne earliest war devices. The liag was
made in 1775 for the First Battalion
or the Westmoreland County Provin
cials, men who organized when the
lirst rumbles of war began to be heard
ln 'and and was carried in Col.
John Proctor's command by Samuel
craig, of Westmoreland county, whoso
descendants have kept it ever since,
*or years this flag has been one of
the treasures of the family and
through efforts of Jesse E. B. Cun
ningham, former deputy attorney
general, they agreed to present it to
the State. Miss Jane Craig, who
owned 11 for years, provided in her
will that it should go to the Common
wealth if the family desired and while
desiring to have the relic near home,
the descendants of Col. Craig deter
mined that it could be better taken
care of in the Capitol. Yesterday af
ternoon it was brought here by Ed
mund S. Craig, of New Alexandria, and
I. M. Hill, of Greensburg, who form
ally presented it to Mr. Montgomery.
Governor Brumbaugh, who had hoped
to be present, was unable to do so, but
sent word by Mr. Montgomery that he
was delighted to Know that the Ilag
was to be State property and that he
personally thanked the donors and
hoped they would come here to see it
when displayed. Tills oldest Ameri
can emblem is of heavy red silk,
worked in gold and bears in the center
the rattlesnake with head and rattles
raised, with the historic motto under
neath. Above are the letters "J. B. W.
C. P.," the name of the organization
and the initials of the colonel. The
snake's head points toward a replica
of the Union Jack in the upper corner.
It is in a splendid state of preserva
tion, showing how carefully the de
scendants of the colorbearer kept it.
The State now owns the flag ot the
Hanover Associators and the Philadel
phia City Troop has the flag of the
Philadelphia Light Horse, relics that
are well nigh priceless. The West
moreland flag will be placed beside
that of the York county organization.
State thanks are to be sent to the
Craig descendants.
Jurymen, a. dozen or more attorneys
and a score of witnesses were drows
ily awaiting the appearance of Judge
Ilenry for the opening of court, the
other day when the foreman of the
twelve of Dauphin's good men and true
glanced toward the open door to the
corridor, rubbed his eyes, looked again,
turned a trifle pale—and then swung
his legs with lightning-like celerity to
the back of the jury box railing.
Then a big gray sewer rat ambled
carelessly through the door and across
the floor of the courtroom.
Two brief but exciting, drowsiness
destroying minutes followed after
which the body of a dead rat was car
ried out on a shovel.
Council got a truer tip on the ad
vent of Spring yesterday than the best
efforts of the weather man could sug
gest. When "communications" were
called for City Clerk Miller read a
simple little letter from one "Joe"
Houston. Me wants the job of dog
catcher.
Much like the proverbial "bolt from
a clear sky," a rather ragged base
ball yesterday dropped apparently"
from nowliere upon the asphalt at
Strawberry and Court streets. That a
game somewhere nearby had been
suddenly deprived of the necessary
sphere w»s indicated by the chorus of
portests and complaints at the mighty
arm-work of a particular batsman.
For a moment a little knot of curious
folks gathered about the man who
picked up the ball and scratched heads
while puzzling out just where the ball
bounded from. Finally the wondering
ones heard a call that solved the prob
lem. "Over here, Mister, shoot it
over!" came the voice—from the Dau
phin county jail yard.
Ex-Bishop H. B. Hartzler, edi
tor of the Evangelical, lias returned

but Mrs. Hartzler will remain in the

People who have been here this
week for legislative matters include a
number who have been volunteer fire
men and they spoke of the late W. W.
Wunder, for so many years secretary
of the State Association. Mr. Wun
der was known to thousands of fire
men, probably having the most ex
tensive acquaintance among firemen
of any one in Pennsylvania. He also
had the reputation of knowing more
people by their first names than any
one else.,
Among visitors to the city yester
day was Director A. Merrltt Taylor,

This Is how Richard Dehan In "The

"Walking alone through the streets,
as, indeed, he loved to do, his keen eye
and huge physical strength had saved
him. ero now, from the assassin's bullet
or knife. And you could not look upon
him without recognizing a force, all
potent for good or all-dominant in evil,
as enemy to ho execrated or a leader
to he adored. The massive, high-domed
head was scantily covered, save f«r a
grayish lock or so at either temple, and
a thin thatching behind the Hnelv
shaped, sagacious ears. The eyebrows
were thick—of gray mixed with darklsi.
brown* the luxuriant brown-gray
mustache covering the large, mobile,
sarcastic mouth, grew heavily as any
trooper's. The short, straight nose was
rounded at the end like the point of n
broadsword. And in the indomitable,
vital regard of tlie blue eyes, partlv
hidden under thick and leveL lids, von
felt the master-mind, as ttfev coldly
(considered some question of finance or
diplomacy, or blazed challenge and de

sagging orbital pouches, as in the puffy
jowl, you read the unmistakable signs
or bygone orgies, deep potations, mar
velous vital powers taxed to the ut
most in the past pursuit of pleasure,
as by present indefatigable, unsleeping
labors with brain, voice, and pen In
the service of Throne and State."
DON'T MOST OF YOUIt MEALS
COST LESS THAN CENTS?
In the May Woman's Home Com
panion Ida M. Tarbell, writing an ar
ticle entieled "The Twenty-Cent Din
ner," tells the story of a young work
ing girl in Chicago who attempted to
take her own life. When asked by
the doctor for an explanation of her
act she said: "Doctor, did vou ever
eat twenty-cent dinners?" This story
was widely quoted as an argument for
various schemes looking to higher
wages, better working conditions, and
so on. Miss Tarbell goes on in part as
follows:
"A little figuring on v-ages and in
comes will show that half, and more,
of its people never had and never
will have dinners that cost even twen
ty cents.
"Take your man on a thousand dol
lars a year—and a thousand dollurs Is
a handsome wage as things arc in the
world—what can he pay for the dinner
of himself and his wife and his three
children? Studies of budgets of wage
earners show that in this country from
40 to 45 per cent, of incomes averag
ing SI,OOO to $1,200 a year must go
for food. Put-it all at 45 per cent., or
$450 —$90 a year per person, or 25
cents a day. Evidently there will be
few twenty-cent dinners eaten in that
household, yet there will be thousands
of such homes where there is health,
gayety and thanksgiving.
"Moreover, If you studv the condi
tions under which much of the most
brilliant work of the world has been
carried on you will find that the twen
ty-cent dinner was often the feast for
holidays."

I From the Pittsburgh Gazette-Times.]
In the Supreme Court of Pennsylva
nia yesterday, through an opinion by
Justice Potter, a little lesson In law
was read to Auditor General Powell.
The act of July 7, 1313, required that
all moneys derived from motor vehicle
registrations and license fees be placed
In a separate fund In the State Treas
ury, to be available for the State High
way Department upon requisition, and
"spei'incally appropriated" such moneys
for the construction, maintenance, Im
provement and repair of State and
State-aid highways. The act of May
11, 1909. made It "a misdemeanor for
any officer of this Commonwealth to
Authorise to be paid, or for the State
Treasurer to pay, any money out of the
State Treasury except In accordance
with an act of Assembly specifying the
smount and T>iirpose of the expendi
ture," and provided penalties for viola
tion of this Inhibition.
It will be noted that the art of 1913
"specifically appropriated" to a particu
lar purpose all moneys derived from
a certain sourci- without specifying the
amount. Auditor CSeneral Powell was
hostile to the then State administra
