Sing Sing Is Not Such
a Bad Place After All
By Associated Press
New York, Sept. 15.—The Joys of
life in Sing Sing were set forth to-day
in a letter found in the possession of
Walter Gardner, arraigned on a short
affidavit before Magistrate Appleton
in West Side Court. The letter, writ
ten to Gardner by Joseph Kopp, now
serving a three-year term for robbery,
follows in part:
"Friend Walt: '
"I am up here for three years, but.
hey, Walt, why worry? I want to tell
you it is much easier here than you
think. Baseball every day, swimming
the same. We have two hours everv '
day in the water and we can talk and
yell all we want to. We cannot talk
ir. the shop. Movies every night In'

The writer said he did not want his

' | could buy things cheaper at Sing Sing
than here. He said he expected to be
released in 18 months if he "walked
a chalk line," aad concluded by ad
vising his friend to be good, but to
remember that Sine Sing "is not such
a bad place after all."

about:
F. F. Davenport, proprietor of a
Market street restaurant, whose job
is the arranging for the bands to play
during "Merchants' Night" last even
ing decided to close a contract with
the West End Band. So he called
up George A. Hutman. the leader.
Conductor Hutman explained that the
band was rehearsing.
"That's too bad," said Mr. Daven
port. "I wanted you to sign that
contract » But of course you can't
leave the band?"
"No, I can't leave the band, but—
hello!"
"Yes?"
"I'll bring it along!"
And he did.

RUTHERFORD URGES
REYNDERS ELECTION
Prominent Banker Declares It Is
For Best Interests of
Rorough
"slr. Reynders has done as
much and more for Steelton than
any other man that ever came
Into the community. He ought to
be returned to council with a
huge majority for the good of the
entire borough.''
This is the endorsement Robert M.
ltutherford, president of the Steeltop
National Bank and Steelton Trust
Company and one of the borough's
foremost citizens, gave to-day to the
candidacy of J. V. W. Reynders, who
will be endorsed practically unani
mously by the voters of the Third
ward at the primaries next Tuesday.
Prominent businessmen and others
Interested in the welfare of Steelton,
regardless of party affiliations, have
lined up for Mr. Reynders and will
strive to give him the largest vote ever
received by a Third ward councilman.
Tax Rate Knocked Down
Mr. Reynders, the vice-president and
general manager at the local plant of
the Pennsylvania Steel Company, has
been president of council for six years.
During this time the borough tax rate
has been reduced one-half mill and
many thousands of dollars have been
spent in public improvements.
More than seven miles of paved
streets have been constructed, a new
30-lnch intake has been built from
the Alter plant to the center of the
Susquehanna river, the street lighting
system has been wonderfully improved
and the cost greatly reduced, the sani
tary sewerage system has been made
the equal of any in the State and many
other public improvements have suc
cessfully been carried out.
The nejet council will revise prac
tically all the present borough ordi
nances to conform with the new bor
ough code and men of experience and
foresight should be selected for the
task.
And that Is why far-seeing men of
the borough, regardless of party poli
tics, desire to give Mr. Reynders such
a large majority.
Schools on Half Session
During Hot Weather
It's a safe bet that the weather man
and students of Steelton's public
schools are on excellent terms Just at
present. For until the present hot
spell passes away there will be only
in all borough schools.
This decision was reached by the
School Board in special session last
evening.
Until the half session rule was
passed students in many of the rooms
suffered greatly from the intense heat.
In a few of the rooms it was reported
to the board, the thermometers soared
to the 90 mark.
In the High school the boy students
suffered particularly for it is the
rule there that boys must not re
move their coats.
DR. AND MRS. MYERS BACK
FROM TOUR OF COUNTRY
Dr. and Mrs. D. E. Myers, South
Second street, have returned from a
six weeks' tour of the United States.

STOMACH MISERY
QUICKLY VANISHES
Your money back if you want it is
the way in which all the leading drug
stores are selling: Mi-o-na, the great
dyspepsia remedy.
''"his is an unusual plan, but Mi-o-na
has so much molt and is so almost in
variably successful in relieving all
forms of indigestion that the dealers
run but little risk in selling under a
guarantee of this kind.
Do not be miserable or makt your
friends miserable with your dyspepsia.
Mi-o-na will help you. If it doesn't,
toll your druggist that you want your
money back and he will cheerfully re
fund it.
A clmnge for the better will be seen
from the first few doaes of Mi-o-na,
and its continued use will soon start
you on the to perfect digestion
and enjorment of food.
Mi-o-na has been so uniformly suc
cessful that every box is sold under a
positive guarantee to refund the money
if it docs not relieve. What fairer
proposition could be made?
Ycu can get Mi-o-na on this money
back guarantee from practically every
druggist in this vicinity, including H.
C. Kennedy.—Advertisement, ,
