SALVAGE INVENTORY
SHOWS FEW IDLE CARS
i
|
Clear Sidings on Main Line; Good
Equipment to Be Put in
Service Early
With a view to estimating tho
amount of salvage to be realized from
old cars, general inventory is now
being made by the Pennsylvania Rail
road. With the arrival of new cars
much of the present equipment will be
sold or sent to the scrap heap.
In connection with this Inventory
idle cars are being brought from stor
ing sidings to the shops. Within the
past few days many sidings between
Altoona and Philadelphia have been
cleared. It is estimated that 5,000
Idle cars have been recalled.
Total Idle Cars
The company on April 9 reported a I
total of 78,962 idle freight cars. On |
April 16 the aggregate had been re
duced to 71,916, a decrease of 5,046
cars.
The equipment put in service in the
week comprised good order cars, as
the totals of shop cars stored showed
no change. The number of good order
idle cars was reduced from 42,475 on
April 9 to 37,428 on April 16.
Eastern lines of the system on April
6 reported 38,825 idle freight cars,
compared with 35,961 on April 9, a
decrease of 2,136 cars. The western
lines reported 38,091 idle cars on April
16. against 41,001 on April 9, a de
crease of 2.910 cars.
Compared with January 4 of this
year, the number of Idle freight cars
on the Pennsylvania Railroad system
April 16 showed a decrease of 14,177
cars, or 16 Vfe per cent.
Railroad Steel Orders
Ready in Two Weeks
Tn steel circles there is a feeling that 1
the Pennsylvania Railroad's steel rail
order may be let within a couple of
weeks. Early In January the company
made inquiries for 170,000 tons. To
date it haa given contracts to six steel
companies for 2000, tons each, a total
of 12,000 tons. Each company was
to roll 1,000 tons according to old spe
cifications, and 1,000, according to re
vised 1915 specifications. It is expected
that when the bulk of the order is
placed by the Pennsylvania, the price
will be more than S2B per ton, the
standard price for some years, because
of the more rigid specifications.
How Big Order Looks
When Run in One Train
Referring to the recent Pennsylvania
new equipment order the Philadelphia
Evening Ledger says:
"The Pennsylvania Railroad is go
ing to buy 16,520 different kinds of
cars and locomotives. If placed end
to end they would reach 108 miles, or
from Philadelphia to Harrisburg and
then five miles farther. If placed row
fcy row on Broad street, nine deep,
they would extend 12 miles, or from
League Island to Logan."
COURT REFUSES LEASE
Trenton, N. J., April 23. The at
tempt of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company to obtain a lease of the West
Jersev and Seashore Railroad and Its
franchises for a period of 999 years
was again thwarted yesterday when
Chief Justice Guramere. of the New Jer
sey Court of Errors and Appeals, in an
opinion handed down, sustained the
right of the tyew Jersey Board of Pub
lic Utility Commissioners to refuse the
Pennsylvania the right to'make the
lease.

NEW PRINCIPAL II
(ML 12 WEEKS
Prof. Howard G. Dibble to Visit
High School Early in May to
Get His Hand in on Ropes
Central high school students will
have a chance to become acquainted
with Professor Howard G. Dibble, ot i
Ijf mbertville, N. J., the new principal,
during the first two weeks in May.
President, Harry A. Boyer, of the
School Board, announced to-day that
the successor to Principal Steele will
put in these two weeks at Central in I
order to become acquainted with the
"ropes." the students, the faculty and
the directors.
After his two weeks' visit Professor
Dibble will return to Dambertville to
officiate at commencement exercises.
Then he will come back to llarrisburg j
to live. I
The School Board yesterday selected
Professor Dibble unanimously to serve
for a year, beginning in September.
His salary will be $2,500, the mini
mum for the tlrat year authorized by
the rules of the board.
While School Director Yates did not
oppose Mr. Dibble, he said he believed
Professor .1. J. Brehm. one of the
supervisors, should have had the place. ;
President Boyer, City Superintendent
Downes, Director Houtz and other di
rectors all informed Mr. Yates that
Professor Brehm didn't want the job.
Rumor had it to-day in school cir
cles that Professor Brehm's aspirations
incline not toward the high school
principalship, but to the city superin
tendency. Dr. Downes, however, has
still another two years to serve. ,
THE MKDJUM-BIZKD MAN
We are all inclined to look yp to j
the physically big man, not only liter
ally, but there is always a certain pre
emption in his favor that he must be
correspondingly strong-mentally. Peo
ple make room for him; they attach
more importance usually to what he
says than to the same words uttered
by an undersized man. We uncon
sciously picture in our minds the bayo
net charge and storming of the trench
es as the work of large men. The
boy dreams of having a football phy
sique and little sister worships her
big brother.
Other abilities being equal, the
large man has a positive advantage
over the small man. And yet many,
if not the majority, of the great men
of the world have been only of me
dium size, and not a few even under
sized.
A certain large city In this country
had for years made it a rule not to em
ploy in its fire department any but
large men. The result was a small
armv of athletes which never failed
to cause a positive thrill whenever
they went on parade. They distinct
ly represented the day of physical
might.
For some years past the Inventive
mind has been busy, and very success
fully. to produce apparatus which
never tires, and calculated to transfer
to a great extent the hard work from
muscle to machine. The evidences of
this evolution may be seen In even
small towns everywhere, and now the
fire engine drawn by volunteers and
worked with handbrakes must be
looked for In museums of strange me-i
beanies or the past. In its place is
the self-propelled gas-engined ma
chine, carrying its own hose hosej
capable of highly effective work with
only two men; and ladder trucks by
means of which one small man manip
ulatlng-some short levers can in a few
seconds raise great ladders to dizzy
heights, or pour a deluge of water into
tenth-story windows while standing in
the street below. Hence it has come
about that the man small of stature
but nimble of body and alert of mind
is not only the peer but often the su
perior oi' the giant In build. There yet
remains some work for the big ath
letes t-ut it is growing less- each year,
and vhe man whom nature has not en
dowed with great physical strength is
coming into his own.—By H. H. Wind

KELSEY TO TELL OF
PALACES OF YUCATAN
Famous Architect Will Relate
Thrilling Tale of Travels in
Fahnestock Hall Friday
Plans for the visit of Herbert Kel
sey, the Philadelphia architectural ex
pert who recently returned from Yu
catan and who will tell of his ex
periences in the country of the Aztec,
in Fahnestock hall next Friday even
ing, were discussed this afternoon at
meeting of the board of governors of
the Pure Milk Society of llarrisburg
whose guest he will he. The hoard
met at the home of Mrs. John E. Fox,
223 North Front street.
Mr. Kelsey spent months not only
in the section of Mexico that has
been moaning under the burden of
revolution but also in that island-like
peninsula that juts into the Caribbean.
These are the vacation resorts of the
wealthier Mexicans from the capital.
While the architect went to Mex
ico and to Yucatan for the purpose
of studying the ancient architecture of
the Indians that were old when Pi
l zarro was a youthful adventurer, ho
i Ijad ample opportunity to observe eco-
I nomlc and social conditions. Inciden
tally he brought back scores of inter
esting pictures and these will be a
feature of the talk he will deliver in
Fahnestock hall next Friday evening.
Not only will the great palatial resi
dence of Mr.Wealthy Mexican in beau
tiful Merida be shown but the com
parison with the native hut in the
suburbs will be quaintly drawn, ami
this by the man who got a splendid
j inside tip on Mexican architecture, all
sizes and kinds.
The proceeds of the talk will be de
| voted, of course, to the general fund
of the Pure Milk Society—the organi
zation that makes it possible for the
baby of the needier family of Harris-
to get a share of properly pre
pared food.
The list of patronesses is now be
ing prepared and will be announced
within a day or two.

Baseball Magnates Are
Good Weather Prophets
New York, April 23.—About this
time last year there was a hue and
cry against the compilers of the two
major league schedules. The mag
nates were accusd of avarice, greed
and sundry other things for having the
season open so early. Rain and cold
weather caused discomfort to the fans
as well as many postponements. A
general clamor arose for later open
ings. But the magnates sat tight and
this year opened on April 14 again.
Thus far 27 games have been ached
