SATURDAY EVENING, BXRFUSBURG C<S66l TEISGRXPH SEPTEMBER 11, 1915 , FISHERIES WILL GET PROTECTION Installation of Filters Going Ahead at a Number of the State's Indutrial Plants The Warren Chemical Products Company, located at Russellburg, Warren county, on the Conewango creek, has installed one of the gravity filters which the Pennsylvania De partment of Fisheries is having In stalled at the various manufacturing establishments throughout the State. This chemical company manufactures . gun-cotton and is one of the largest chemical companies in the western • part of the State. There is much sul phuric acid in the products of this company, which if it gets into the stream will destroy fish for many miles. The system was installed about three months ago an«T is open to any one for inspection at any time. This is a step forward in the efforts of the Department of Fisheries to have the pollution of the streams abated. The Department has on file letters from scores of manufacturing estab lishments requesting copies of blue prints of the gravity filter and as soon as the blueprints are received, which the Department expects will be within the next two weeks, the wardens will take up this matter of pollution, fur nishing blueprints to all the manu facturing establishments and have them installed. Many manufacturing concerns in other States have written the Depart ment requesting data and blueprints of this filter, which will be furnished when the proper time arrives.

"DADDY LONG LEGS" | A CHARMING PLAY Notable Cast With Renee Kelly Presents Jean Webster's Story in Excellent Manner I If a clean, wholesome show pre sented by a company that Is splendld | ly well rounded, artistic and capable, I has any attraction for this city; it is '.safe to assert that the Orpheum will | have two crowded houses to-day at 'the matinee and evening performances ! of "Daddy Long Legs,' a comedy from I the story by Jean Webster. For "Daddy Long Legs" is a play, the pur | pose of which does not cease with en j tertainment, but promotes as well a i touch of sympathy for the unfortun lates whom we all know, j The play came first to the public as a story, but was later dramatized by , Henry Miller, and presented last year ; with Ruth Chatterton as Judy Abbott, j the role carried in this company by Renee Kelly, a most charming and mischlevlous "Judy." Of course, the play revolves around "Judy" who for eighteen years has spent all of her time in an orphan asylum, where life to her was solid drudgery. She had dreams of being as other girls, and one day all of her dreams were realized for an unknown benefactor promised to send her to college. This benefac tor was her "Daddy Long Legs" who jin the play is Jervis Pendleton, who, I on many occasions Judy saw and after a while loved. Jervis loved her too, and thereon, with the spice of com plicated indentlties hangs the story of the play. The play was most admirably pre sented by a company that was in every way a capable one. One could not wish for more in the acting of Miss Kelly as "Judy," and Mr. Beasly as Jervis Pendleton. Indeed it is unfair to stop there in citing characters, for every one of the company in their respective roles was excellent. And the play is so fresh and wholesome that it is virtually a great privilege to be able to attend its performances. But one thing can be said against It and that is the harsh tune given in several instances by the use of the name of the Diety at times when em phasis for a line or two is sought. MAX ROBERTSON. Orpheum Favorite at Majestic Next Week j % *w m - - W wfc - - BESSIE KYLE Of the fetching song and dance skits that elicited praise from Orpheum goers, was the splendid act called "The Club Man," disporting those very capable and pleasing players, Harry I Richards and Bessie Kyle. That they are to appear on the Majestic pro gram during the first half of next week will probably sound the most welcome note that vaudeville devotees in Har- I risburg have heard this season. Miss Kyle is a stunning young wo man, posessing a pleasing personality and an exquisite voice. Her partner Is clever also and knows how to make the most, of his bright lines. Kyle and Richards rank with the best known artists in their line in the Keith market, and they bid fair to-! ward establishing a high water mark in the way of popularity at the Ma jestic this season.—Advertisement. THE GREAT RUBY AT COLONIAL MONDAY AND TUESDAY Adventure of the sort that makes the blood leap, mystery that keeps one guessing and romance that holds interest Is to be seen in Lubin's big five part feature photodrama, "The Great Ruby" which is the feature photoplay at the ever popular Colonial Monday and Tuesday of the coming week. How the thieves steal It from a crown head, make their escape good and how they are chased by the great est decteives, furnsh many a thrill and a chill that holds the audience in j a grip of excitement from beginning to end. George Soifle Spencer and Octavia Handworth appear in the leads while a big- cast of one hundred are seen in strong supporting parts. Wednesday j and Thursday, William Fox's film pro duction in six parts, "The Two Orphan*" picturized from Kate Clax ton's evergreen success will be the feature of an unusually fine program. Friday and Saturday the feature will be Essanay's latest and most powerful drama, "The Man Trail," a story of the rugged north woods dealing with the hardy people of the great Canadian Northwest. In this feature, the favor- ! ite Essanay Player, Richard Travers carries the leading part. To-day "The Wheels of Justice" the Vitagraph Company's four part melo drama is the headllner of the pro gram on which is also shown Pathe's ever interesting Daily News and a screaming comedy "Just Tramp." Herman Yeager whose excellent musi cal numbers on the pipe organ have already become the talk of the town, has arranged a special program for the coming week. The Colonial show is continuous from eleven until eleven daily.—Advertisement. "TWIN BEDS" COMING As the attraction at the Orpheum on Saturday afternon and evening, Sept. 18th, Selwyn and Company, the firm that gave the stage such notable successes as "Within the Law" and "Under Cover," will offer their last season's big hit, "Twin Beds," Sails- i bury Field and Margaret Mayo'si screamingly funny farce of life among the apartment dwellers, which has •proved the laughing sensation of the season in New York, where it recently concluded a run of one whole year.

One of the best plays, and you should not mlee seeing It. "The Secret Orchard," Men in Public Eye Tell of Municipal Im > Further comments by men In the public eye with reference to the mu nicipal improvements and the big cele bration commemorative of those im provements will be of Interest to all those who have a strong pride in their city and Its record of achievement- George F. Ross, who was secretary of the general committee on improve ments in 1901-2, reviews the last dec ade and a half as follows: "When I look back over the past thirteen years and realize the great ■ stride this city has made in the way • of public improvements, the con . summation of which is to be cele , brated in the near future, I rejoice . that I had an humble part in the initial campaign to better municipal i conditions, the campaign of 1902, ■ when the million-dollar loan was • ratified so handsomely by the voters ( of this city, "Those of us who are old enough to [ recall those "good old days' when we . had muddy streets in wet weather and • dusty ones in dry; when Paxton creek ■ was an open sewer, with its attendant , odors; when the water we drank, I after a flood, was pumped directly i from the river into the reservoir and was almost the consistency of mo i lasses and a few shades lighter in . color than ink; when the sewers along , the River Front were a serious menace to the health of the city, and when the River Bank was a common dump ing ground for all the discarded Junk after the Spring and Fall houseclean ings, find it quite difficult to believe that no much could be accomplished in so short a period as thirteen years. Therefore. X think that every citizen of Harrisburg is Justified In feeling proud that so much has been done and the manner In which it has been done, for those upon whom the re sponsibility devolved of directing the work and of expending such large sums of money performed their labors , so faithfully and honestly that there , never has been room for the faintest suspicion of graft. To those gentle men I take off my hat, and to the city that may Justly lay claim to the title 'City Beautiful' 1 say Hail! and all Hail!" O. P. Beekley, who Is head of the Eerryhill Nursery Company and a man of authority on all matters pertaining to "the city beautiful," in an enthusi astic communication says; " 'Yes, all these fine public improve ments in Harrisburg have been going on so steadily and beautifully that even we who have worked on them can scarcely realize what a lot of things have happened and how the city has developed.' This was the voluntary and enthusiastic expression of one of the workmen who has been on the job almost since the beginning of the work in 1901. I believe it could a« truly bo the • expression of a very large percentage of our good citizens. "And even we who have been most interested and observing need an occa sional jolt to realize what has de veloped under our very eyes. A few weeks ago I walked the length of the promenade fronting the city of Bos ton along the Charles river! Why, I bald to my friend, this is exactly the in novel form, by Agnes and Egerton Castle, was the most widely read book in America a few years ago. Daughter of one of the stars of the Parisian Demimonde, the heroine of "The Secret Orchard" carries from birth a hidden taint of character. From a convent in which her mother, who had died, placed her as a child to escape the environment of her par ent, the girl steps into the world ignorant of her hidden weakness. In nocently, she falls victim of Duke of 1 Cluny. whose wife, unknown to the Duke, had promised a home to a motherless girl. When the ward of , the Duchess confronts the Duke, each repress recognition so as to save the Duchess but when the young woman finds her real lover, an American naval officer, the truth is told.

Murder Suspects Deny Killing Allentown Youth Special to The Telegraph i Allentown, Pa., Sept. 11. Mrs. Lefanus Lichtenwalner was the princi , pal witness at the hearing yesterday , of Frank and John Mack, who con , fessed to robbing the body of her son, . L. Harold Lichtenwalner, who was found dead In a quarry in the western end of the city three weeks ago. They denied killing the youth, and • Frank Mack said, when asked if he had stolen young: Llchtenwalner's watch, "Well, T took it, and that is all there is to it." The other brother [ owned up that he dealt with the pawn brokers. Their excuses for robbing • the body and selling the loot for only sll was that they did not know of . the SSO reward Complications were added to the mystery when the mother asked what had become of the boy's diamond pin and his cash.

A woman who was formerly a do mestic in the Lichtenwalner household has informed the officers that she saw the youth in Allentown at 5 o'clock on the day the Macks say they found his body in the quarry and robbed it. Limestone Ledges on Parkway Drive Delay Work on New Roadway Rough grading on the extension of th<? city parkway drive through the ; almshouse and Paxtang tracts has beeh completed by the city park de ' partment for a distance of about 3.000 feet. This takes the further end of the work to within a short dis tance of Paxtang park. In some sections fine grading has been finished, too, although the con tractors have met obstacles in the shape of masses of limestone ledges. This requires blasting and necessarily causes the Job to move less speedily. NEW COMPANY Special to The Telegraph Waynesboro, Pa..

STEVENS' 82D BIRTHDAY Special to The Telegraph I Mechanlcsburg, Pa., Sept. 11.—Teg ' | terday Dr. T. J. Stevens celebrated his 1 I ninety-second birthday anniversary at his home in East Simpson street, re i celving callers and congratulations. same kind of a river walk we have in Harrisburg—only our Susquehanna river walk is infinitely more pic turesque and a great deal more of It. "On a recent New England motor trip we passed through five capital cities, all older and bigger than Har risburg, but not one of them with as good streets generally, none with more picturesque parks, no better drinking water, and none with so few unsightly billboards, back alleys, dumps, etc. "I trust as we woke up in 1901 to what we needed in Harrisburg we will now wake up to what we have In Har risburg and shout and boost for the best old town In the Union as never before." Edward Bailey, the banker, said to day: "In justly congratulating ourselves on the great advances made by Har risburg In the last fourteen years we must not forget that much remains to be done to achieve our goal. We must also remember that changes or re-> forms, to be permanent, must be sup ported by a practically unanimous public opinion. Care, too. Is necessary that our taxes be not out of propor tion to those of towns of comparative size." David Kaufman, owner of the big new Kaufman store, says: "It is a constant source of pleasure to me to be an integral part of a pro gressive community such as this city has'grown to be. The spirit of activity and push that has characterized Its development during the last fourteen years is well worthy of emulation among cities all over the country. Everybody and everything Is benefited by the movement for municipal im provement which has been in progress since 1901 and which will be cele brated in the big celebration the end of this month." J. W. Bowman, of Bowman & Co., member of the Board of Public Works, believes that the keynote of Harris burg's prosperity is contentments Mr. Bowman writes: "Results of fourteen years of earnest endeavor appear at almost every glance throughout the city and I be lieve that conditions realized by those improvements far exceed in true worth the dreams of those who have labored persistently and strenuously for the fulfilment. "As an industrial town Harrisburg has remained practically free of labor troubles, which can justly be accred ited to its splendid natural surround ings providing a diversity of means for healthful recreation, wherebv the old adage that 'Satan finds mischief for idle hands to do' has not proven applicable. A contentment of mind is the prevailing result. "The money expended on improving these nalural advantages has enhanced their value beyond measure, both In beauty and employment, and I am sure will be the means of attracting more and more individuals and fami lies to this city as years pass by. "The coming celebration will not only give unusual publicity, but will serve as an inspiration for the further - ment of local improvements." Religion of Turks Gave British Chance to Land Rotterdam, Sept. 10, via London, Sept. ll. —Carless watch kept by the Turks, who were observing a week of fast prescribed by their religion was responsible for the successful landing of British forces at Suvla bay, accord ing to the testimony of German offi cers, says the Constantinople corre spondent of the Courant.
