10 HE QIIESTIOH OF ROOM FORARBUMENT Before County and Mr. Detweiler Discuss Madness of Dogs They'll Go Into Reasons For Discussion ■HMMMaHaaHB Bef ore counsel JU )( 111 for Dauphin coun- S/ ty's board of com mls si o n® rs n t a weller, an Oberlln farmer, respecttve 'y> oven ar K J ue MHISHIi °' whether or not I Kir IB mad dogs roam around singly or in MWMHI a crowd of Ave when they want to bite calves, they'll have to argue before the Dauphin county court as to whether or not there is even room for argument. That new phase of the story of the calf biting expedition of a quintet of alleged mad dogs developed yesterday when Victor Braddock, counsel for Mr. Detweiler filed a demurrer to the commissioners* answer to his suit for a claim of $l6O a few weeks ago. The $l6O represents what Detweiler says has slain calves are worth. The com missioners denied their responsibility on the ground that mad dogs do not chase around in a crowd when they go In for calf-chewirig —that they always act singly. Ordinarily this grave prob lem would have been threshed out In argument when the question of the permanency of a preliminary man damus obtained by Detweiler against the commissioners to pay the $l6O was before the court. Detweiler's lat est move, however, continues the case until the regular argument court, Oc tober 12. In demurring, he says the question of how many dogs isn't be fore the commissioners, that question has been settled by the auditor legally bound to make his return. The audi tor says five mad dogs killed the calves. Attorney Braddock contends, and all that remains for the commis sioners to do Is to pay the money and not argue as to whether mad dogs operate alone or in bunches of five.

HARRISBITRG TELEGRAPH IVY POISONS 5,001) RERE EACH SUMMER Don't Be a City "Rube" and Stop to Admire the Gloss Green of the Torment Five thousand cases of ivy poison ing make a summer—in Harrisburg and make it deucedly uncomfortable while they're about it. Ivy poisoning is one of the tortures they used In the Spanish inquisition. The open season is between June and September. The chief victims are the poor innocents from the big city who venture with amazing fearlessness into the lurking pitfalls of the country. They see a beautiful vine of glossy green that any farmer's boy would pass in a wide circle. But the city-bred "rubes" stoop to admire it, and not long after begin to itch. They realize, when the torment is well under way, that they have ivy poisoning. All persons are not susceptible to ivy poisoning. Some can roll in poison ivy and raise not a single blister. Others acquire the disease without actual con tact. The wind blowing in their direc tion from an ivy clump may put 'em nors oe combat for a week or more. Technically, ivy poisoning is an in flammation of the akin produced by poisoned plants. The symptoms are un mistakable. First comes a slight red .swelling. Then tiny white blisters in sinuate themselves. If the victim doesn't know he has ivy poisoning, or if he does know it but is ignorant cf the proper course to take ho scratches a bit. I* he doesn't sus pect poison ivy, he probably complains about fleas. • As he scratches the Itching spreads, and gradually the Irritation Is carried to all parts of the body by auto-inocu latlon. The sufferer begins to feel like a man in a fiery furnace. His skin is red and swollen. co> ntless thousands of tiny vesicles and blebs appear. Sometimes from the arch of the foot extending upward to the scalp the poi son spreads. If it goes far enough, it may close the patient's eyes. The con stant itching is like a witch's curse It is continuous torment, and often means sleepless nights. There are numerous so-called cures. Among the favorite remedies are fluid extract of grlndelia robusta, fluid ex tract of serpentarla, hyposulphite of sod.um. and a mixture of lime water, oxide of zinc and 'carbolic acid. Some people soak the affected parts with a solution of epsom salts containing a few drops of carbolic acid. Another course is to prick each blister, press out the contents, and paint with tinc ture of iodine. Both poison ivy and sumac belong to the rhus genus, and are confused con tinually with harmless plants like the ' Irginla creeper. Poison ivy or poison oak is a woody, trailing shrub, which climbs in thickets, along fences, rocks or trees, or runs along the ground in the grass, from Maine to Florida. It dlers from the Virginia creepr in hav ing three leaflets instead of five, and these are peculiarly green and glossv as though waxed. They are from two to four inches long and are variously notched. In autumn It assumes bril liant colors. The poisonous sumac grows in swampy places from Florida to Canada and westward to Louisiana. It is a tr ee-llke shrub six to thirty feet high, and differs in that respect from the trailing ivy. The long, pinnate leave» have from seven to thirteen smooth glossy leaflets on red petioles, and have unbroken margins. The loose, grape-like bunches of silver gray ber ries are also visible in winter, and cause poisoning, as they are frequently pick ed for ornament BIG CROWDS WAIT TO SEE CIRCUS PARADE Trains and Wet Grounds Delay Start of Jones Brothers' Pro cession; Two Shows Circus fans, old and young, waited almost to the giving up point to-day to see the Jones Brothers' aggrega tion on parade. They lost only time by waiting, and that loss was fully made up in the numerous special fea tures offered. This was the first visit of the Jones Brothers' circus to Harrisburg, and it will not soon be forgotten by the owners. They came from Reading, where two big crowds attended. Trains were late in getting to Harris burg. Then came the trouble of fixing up an entirely new lot. The circus pitched its tents at Fourth and Seneca streets. Time was lost in getting up the big tops and preparing for the free street parade. It was noon when the procession started from the grounds. Along the route crowds lined the curbs. It was nearly 1 o'clock when the big band I wagon followed by many open cages showing wild and ferocious lions, hyenas and leopards, reached Market Square. It was a glittering proces sion. Something now was the fa mous elephant Dungu Din, the only rein driven elephant in the world. The performance this afternoon started at 2:30. The show itself was all that was promised. The big tent was thronged with a crowd that an ticipated no more than it received, from the Wallet troupe of wire walk ers to the herd of educated elephants, most wonderfully trained by the mas ter trainer, Cheerful Gardner. Hair raising feats were performed by bare back riders on beautiful horses and all were delighted with the pretty act by Mrs. Ducander and her waltzing ponv. Another performance will be given at 8:15 to-night. WILSON PEACE PLAN UNFOLDED BY LANSING [Continued from First l'age.] dential adviser to President Wilson on Mexican affairs.

MISSING CANOEISTS FOUND Bodies of Scranton Couple Who Dis appearcd Sunday Taken From River. Special to The Telegraflx Scranton, Pa.. Aug. s.—Floating in the swollen waters of the Susque hanna River, six miles apart, the bodies of Florence Ross and Earl Thomas, canoeists, missing since Sun day night, were found to-day.

ACKLEY TO BE WAN A MAKER'S SECRETARY Philadelphia, Aug. s.—Bentley D.

WARSAW FALLS SAYS OFFICIAL STATEMENT [Continued from First Pa#e.] here would mean the early losa of Dvinsk, a m.ost important Junction of the Petrograd-Warsaw railroad. Desperate battles still are prevail ing along the Narew river with the Germans meeting the stonewall of the Russian defense, except at a point near Ostrolenka, where they forded the river, captured several thousand prisoners and forced the Russians back to the outer defenses on the northern front of the fortress of Lonza. Prince Leopole and his Ba varians are now before Warsaw, Ber lin claiming that the Russians have been thrown from the Blonie line into the outer defenses of that fortress, •which brings them 14 miles to the westward of the Polish capital. Berlin reports the Germans have occupied the western portion of Ivan gorod fortress, but Petrograd claims I ithat the Ivfcngorod-Warsaw railroad 1 1 still is open. Comparative quiet prevails on the j western front and in the minor battle fields. Turk Craft Destroyed A significant phase of the near eastern operations which has passed almost unnoticed is revealed in the announcement from Petrograd of the destruction of almost 900 Turkish craft in the Blck Sea by a Russian torpedoboat flotilla. More than 800 of these vessels were sailing ships which had been built to carry sup plies from the Anatolian coast. The persistence of the Turks in building these ships, despite their continued destruction, is accepted here as mean ing that Constantinople is in desperate need of supplies. London Press Comments on Blockade Controversy London, Aug. s.—While the news papers generally treat the blockade controversy as a question in the set tlement of which Great Britain and the United States are certain to ar rive at a friendly understanding the Chronicle in an editorial declares the stand of President Wilson entirely In consistent with American precedents. "Rotterdam, though Dutch, is a port for Westphalia and the Rhine land, the greatest German manufac turing district," says the Chronicle. "Is it reasonable to ask that sea borne trade to and from this district should be absolutely unhampered while Germany not only claims the right to destroy any ship and cargo on its way to any port in the British Isles but has exercised that right by destroying wi'h submarines some 200 British and neutral vessels? Surely not." The Times "regrets to learn that America and Great Britain still are at odds over the British 'blockade' of Germany." London Now Believes Evacuation of Warsaw Was Started Too Late By Associated Press London, Aug. 5, 12.10 P.

Of READING AND OWNING BOOKS [New York World.] Hamlin Garland, a writer of books, is growing discouraged over the fail ure of the American people to buy and read new books. The current. he thinks, is against the writers of books, Hnd he assigns as a reason for this de cline in the reading habit that "one cannot maintain a collection of books together with a singing machine and an automobile." Among other things that are driv ing books out of the household and breaking up the reading habit where such a habit may formerly have flour ished, Mr. Garland mentions the "10- cent broad-sheet magazine." the dally newspaper, which we always have with us, and which is a necessity of cltv life, and chiefly, perhaps, the volumin ous Sunday newspaper, with enough reading matter to last the ordinary reader who attempts to read it all until the next issue arrives." Of course, as Byron says, "a book's a hook, although there's nothing ln't" and books of that kind readers do well to leave on the hands of the publish ers or the authors. But the book that Is worth while. In the end generally is recognized. It gets "the fit audience though few" whose voice is fame, and if fame and not dollars Is the ambition of the author, he need not be discour aged, LOVE IN THE PEERAGE Lord Northcliffe has demonstrated to Lord Kitchener that there is room enough In the British peerage to throw bricks.—Chicago News.
