PARTY ON FINAL
LEG OF JOURNEY
Governor Expresses Satisfac
tion With Roads Through
Scenic Section
Special to The Telegraph
Delaware Water Gap. Pa., Oct. 9.
On the final leg of the 980-mile swing
around the State, Governor Brum
baugh and his party of representative
Pennsylvanians reached the scenic
water gap, to-day shortly before noon.
They expressed the utmost satisfaction
with the broad highways leading
through this beautiful section and
after greeting a number of citizens
took lunch at the Hotel Kittatinny.
Early in the afternoon they left here
for Allentown. which they expected
to reach before a o'clock.
William B. McCaleb, superintendent
of the Philadelphia Division of the
Pennsylvania. Railroad, who was a
member of the party accompanying
Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh on
his "Seeing Pennsylvania First" trip,
returned fo Harrisburg last night. Mr.
McCaleb left the party at Wilkes-
Barre. He said to-day:
"I was greatly surprised and de
lighted at the wonderful progress the
State Highway Department has made
in State road improvements. It was
a revelation to all."
On Every Typo of Road
Every type of road that the State
Highway Department is maintaining
was inspected yesterday by Governor
Brumbaugh's "Seeing Pennsylvania"
tourists in the 143-mile run from Wil
lit-msport to the Pocono Mountains.
And all types of road construction
stood up equally well under the test
which the twenty-two automobiles
gave them in that the fifth day of
the 1.000-mile tour through the state.
Kor the second time during the week
the travelers were able to run ahead
of the schedule because of the excel
lent condition of the roads, and they
arrived at Pocono Manor at sunset,
just in time to see the wonders of the
Delaware river valley lying below them
in the red glow. This view and the
encouraging news of the Phillies' vic
tory. announced as soon as the Gov
ernor alighted, made the tourists for
get the ten-hour continuous run
through cool North Pennsylvania air.
"That's fine!" said the Governor
when he heard the score. "I hope
they do that with the series."
Makes Speech at Danville
It was not like other days In one
particular. It was mainly given over
to seeing the roads and the beauties
of this section of Pennsylvania. But
a' Danville 1.400 school children and
2.000 older persons massed in the cen
ter of the town hailed the party, and
Governor Brumbaugh made his only
♦ .ilk of the day.
The old stag? route from Williams
nort to Northumberland gave the ex
ample of what can be done with prop
erly maintained dirt roads. At North
umberland the tourists learned with
-urprise that it was within one vote of
becoming the capital of the state at
one time.
P.oroughs on the route yesterday
with bumpy, rut-filled streets furnished
n good comparison as to what the
State Highway Department has ac
complished. The department has no
control over these borough streets.
Brick roads, water-bound macadam
roads, dirt roads, shale roads, gravel
roads and resurfaced and marvelously
improved roads were traversed.
Several of the tourists who have
made their summer sightseeing auto
tours through New York and New
England said that hereafter they will
tour this state. The completion of
the William Penn highway, over which
the party traveled for part of two
days, was urged by many of the
tourists.
The party arrived at Milford this
morning at 11.30 o'clock and pulled
into the Hotel Kittatinny soon after
for lunch. The trip will conclude to
right at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel,
Philadelphia.
Miss Kolb On Tour
Miss Elizabeth Kolb, whom Gov
error Brumbaugh calls the "sweetest
"ii'l in Pennsylvania," and whom he
i elected as the sponsor of the battle
ship Pennsylvania, has told just what
:i young woman of rare beauty thinks
of matrimonial proposals from cow
boys, bankers, students, conductors
and millionaires who have been for
tunate enough to see her picture pub
lished in newspapers all over the
country. She considers the proposals
' mbarrassing. foolish, and' not at all
seriously intended. Yet she accepts
them with rare good nature as so
many compliments to her undoubted
beauty. Miss Kolb. with her parents,
* olonel and Mrs. Kolb, is touring the
State with Governor Brumbaugh on
bis road inspection trip. When the
question was asked Miss Kolb laughed
heartily. as did her parents. All three
talked freelv of the hundreds of let
ters the young woman has received
since the day she smashed a bottle of
wine over the battleship's bows.

New Grant Six Is
Subject to Severe Test
A very unusual test of the new-
Grant Six is now being conducted by
the Grant Motor Company.
A steel portable. 50 per cent, grade
has been erected on a -vacant lot im
mediately back of the Chicago sales
roons. The car starts on a runway
twenty-four feet from the bottom of
the incline and after striking the in
cline climbs thirty-six feet on an eigh
teen-foot standard, which is an actual
fifty per cent, grade.
This hill is so steep that when the
breaks are applied so as to lock the
wheels, the car will slide down hill. It
is a well-known fact among engineers
that friction between rubber and wood,
which is the greatest friction known,
ceases at a thirty-eight degree angle.
When the car goes up the specta
tors literally hold their breath. The
sharpness of the grade is attested by
the fact that it is almost impossible
for a person to walk up half way and
turn around and immediately retrace
his steps.
Following close upon the heels of
Its remarkable thirty-day run, this
new exhibition of the power and flex
ibility- of the Grant Six is creating
widespread interest and thoroughly
demonstrates that the car is a hill
climber of the first rank.

this afternoon and evening. Is thor
oughly in favor of equal suffrage for
women.
j "I find no difference In the women

not un-sex them or make them In any
way objectionable. Will they tire of
the privilege, you ask. once It is se
cured? Well, have they tired of it in
Colorado? Of course not. Naturally,
the women who are now so enthusias
i tic and busy over the subject will take
it all as a matter of course, but tire
—oh, no! I think not!"
Mr. Skinner's home is in Bryn

he will not cast a vote for the cause.
"I would do so if I voted at all." he
announced, "but I have not cast a
ballot In thirty years. You see, lam
a bird of passage, so to speak. The
Autumn season always finds me on
tour somewhere and so I cannot reg
ister. I have never followed politics
very carefully for this reason. How
; ever, the suffrage cause is a vital is
sue of the day in which 1 take deep
interest as I do in electrical inven
tions, aerial work, etc. I hope, really,
that the women of Pennsylvania will
win this Fall, but I am a little afraid
because of the vote of the large num
ber of farmers and men of the small
towns whose opinions on the subject
are negligible. Of course, the think

derstand the subject cannot fall to see
the justice of It."

READING HAS TO
PAY FIRST FINE
Company Runs Afoul of Public
Service Company Law and
Is Fined Fifty Dollars
The Philadelphia and Reading Rail
way Company ran afoul of the State
Public Service Commission this week
and paid a SSO fine for atlngr without
authority from the commission In con
struction of a crossing at Parker
street. Chester. The fine was the first
to be imposed by the commission and
was for violation of regulations. It
was paid in cash at the State Treasury
and the first entry to be made under
the head of "public service fines."
The commission to-day issued an
order in the complaint of the borough
of Mount Union against the Mount
Union Water Company, which may
serve as a precedent in other water
cases now pending. Objection was
made to the service last summer and
the commission orders that part of
the territory from which the supply
is taken be fenced off and wires strung,
clean up sites of old lumher camps on
the tract and prevent pollution during
the time the reservoir is being cleaned.
The company is ordered to report to
the commission by December 1.
S. K. Rank, of Olen Campbell, has
filed a complaint with the commission
averring that the passenger and freight
station maintained by the New York
Central Railroad Company at that
point is insufficiently lighted with coal
oil lamps and requests that the com
pany be required to supply the station
