p-j- * -- * questions are pro-
MMKSMSMM£M«4 iossional and while
appearing simple yet are of the high
est importance in the handling of in
fantrymen. They have been prepared
by Major F. D. Beary, deputy adjutant
general, with Captain W. H. Kemper,
Third infantry, the inspector-instruc
tor detailed for the Pennsylvania mi
litia headquarters.
The questions will be sent out from
the headquarters to the colonels com
manding about Tuesday and will be
Immediately distributed to the officers
who will write their answers, certi
fying that they have had no assistance
of any kind. The questions must be
returned to the Capitol by September
26 They will cover what are known
as the basic and year A courses.
Commission Moves. —Officers of the
Public Service Commission moved the
headquarters of the Public Service
Commission to Pittsburgh today fori
the western Pennsylvania hearings to
be held this week. The Commission
■will hear the complaints of Westmore
land county towns against the West
moreland water company at Greens
burg Tuesday and Wednesday, this
being one of the big cases listed and
Thursday and Friday will sit in Pitts
burgh to hear the case of Solon C.
Thayer against the Beaver Valley
water company. Executive sessions
will be held at night.
Hanging Case Up.—What may be
the last application for commutation
of a sentence of hanging is listed to
be heard by the State Board of Par
dons on Friday. The case is that of
James Reiily, who killed his wife be
fore the act making electrocution the
legal method of inflicting the death
penalty became effective. Reiily was
formerly a Philadelphia trolleyman.
Fines for Xew Funfl. —Fines im
posed in this State under the century
old Sabbath law are now being turned
into the State fund for carrying fire
insurance on the Capitol and other
State property. Under the old laws
this money was devoted to the extin
guishment of the State debt, but as|
the fund for payment of the outstand
ing bonds which the State wants to!
pay off but can not get ran away!
ahead of the debt the legislature pro- I
vided that all payments heretofore \
authorized to the sinking fund should
go toward the new fund. The idea is
to raise a million dollars and over
$175,000 will be in hand by the end
cf the year. Several Sabbath breaking
fines have come since the change was
made and this item is now, oddly
enough, being used toward enabling
the State to carry its own insurance.
Vinegar Inquiry On. lnvestig
ations of the vinegar sold in several
of the western counties of the State
made in the last few weeks are said to
have shown considerable improvement
in quality as regards what it was three
months ago. The State authorities
found that large quantities of vinegar
were reaching Western Pennsylvania
from half a dozen states and warn
ings were issued that the prosecutions
would be made all along tWte line. In
the list of recent suits for violations
of the law the western counties have
had very few.
Jitneys Will Contest. —Public Ser
vice Commission officials believe that
the question whether the State must
control jitneys will be brought to a
hearing in October at Scranton and
the complaints filed by the traction
company at that place made the tests.
Intimations that answers will be filed
and a contest made have been re
ceived. The result will affect thou
eands of Jitneys now run in the State
and if the commission finds that it
has not jurisdiction it will put regula
tion in the hands of municipalities
jnlone.
Armor; Board to Meet.—The State
MONDAY EVENING,
Armory Board will meet to-morrow

Penbrook Committee That
Is to Act With Council
The names selected by Joseph A.
Miller to advise with council in ac
cordance with instructions of the mass
meeting held Friday evening are as
follows: W. H. Wolf, Alvin P. Speas,
George Bowman. J. W. Hicks, C. H. I
Ruhl and B. F. Knupp. This com- !
mittee will no doubt meet as soon as ,
possible to organize and confer with
council at a special session to learn
what has been accomplished to date
and what remains to be done before
the ordinance is passed and contracts
let. It will probably include the im
mediate completion of petition, a con
ference with the traction company
officials and the State Highway De
partment to determine whether it is
possible to proceed with any of the
work this Fall. Practically every one
of the property owners on the street
is in favor of some method of per
manent improvement at once and the
general impression is that the com
mittee of property owners on the
street will do everything possible to
co-operate with the council to perfect
this piece of road to conform with
the excellent work the State has done
or. the Jonestown road, which will
then be among the finest roads in this
section of the State.
Dogs of War Are Given
Place in French History
The present world war is not the
only conflict of arms in which dogs
have played a prominent and worthy
part. When the French were fight
ing the ' Arabs in Algeria, it is re
lated that one canine favorite was
decorated with the stripes of a cor
poral and afterward raised to the rank
of a full sergeant on account of his
abnormal sagacity. He was used in
turn as scout, sentry, dispatch bearer
and seeker of the wounded on the bat
tlefield.
Another famous French dog was
Tutu, attacked to the 3d Zouaves, who
went through the African and Italian
campaigns with the regiment. Dur
ing the latter campaign Tutu un
masked an Austrian spy who had put
on a zouave's uniform, while at Pales
tro he was the first to swim across the
canal, being followed by the soldiers.
Magenta was another famous dog that
went through the Italian campaign,
and when he came back to Paris the
I animal was showered with flowers by
| the enthusiastic public.

REYNOERS TO POLL
COMPLIMENTARY VOTE
Leaders Predict He Will Be Given
Largest Majority in Home
Ward; His Record Pleases
With the primaries lust a week
away politicians In Steelton are lining
up their followers for the final show
down. In several of the contests
rivalry Is keen, while in a few there
will be practically no opposition to the
men who are at present occupants of
offices.
One of these cases is in the Third
ward, where J. V. W. Reynders is a
candidate for re-election to his seat in
council. His nomination will probably
be practically unanimous.
Following the custom since the or
ganization of the borough, Mr. Reyn
ders, the highest resident official of
the Pennsylvania Steel Company, has
represented the borough's principal in
dustrial interests in council.
In Office Seven Years
Since his election to that body seven
years ago Mr. Reynders has been the
presiding officer. During this time the
borough tax rate has been reduced,
more than seven miles of paved streets
have been constructed and a new
30-lnch intake has been built into the
filter plant, which now has a capactiy
sufficient to furnish Hlghspire, Oberlin
and Enhaut with filtered wter. This
would make it possible to either re
duce Steelton's water rates or to de
\ote greater funds to public improve
ments. Other public improvements
carried out during Mr. Reynders' term
in office include the handsome Locust
street steps, the erection of the new
Hygienic Hose hoi'.s» and additions
to the Baldwin and West Side hose
houses: the purchase of a new Heisler
pump at the filter plant, the purchase
of a new chemical truck for the Citi
zen Fire Company and a wonderfully
improved sewerage system.
Although a busy man on accoun.
of his duties with the steel company.
Mr. Reynders has devoted much of
his time and his far-sighted ability to
the interests of the taxpayers. His
aim has always been a bigger and
more attractive Steelton. To this end
he has labored Incessantly.
That the voters of his own ward will
register their appreciation of his serv
ices next week Is certain, according to
well-informed observers. His friends,
regardless of party, are planning to
give him the largest majority ever
given a Third ward contest.
Hebrew Association Is
Organized by Young Men
The Toung Men's Hebrew Associa
tion was organized by a number of
Steelton's prominent men of Jewish
