IS. —| Wben Perry county was settled by thej whites in the middle of the sixteenth century the ridge south of New Ger mantown was named "Buck Ridge.'' so-cailed by the settlers because of the number of deer which roamed it.

LANDMARK OF COLONIAL Columbia, Ba., Oct. 16.—1n the section of the Lincoln Highway from Philadelphia to York, are a number of Colonial landmarks, some of which have long since been forgotten. Among the latter is one in Columbia whose history is interwoven with thrilling interest and which may l>e observed by travelers on the Lincoln Highway as they reach the end of the Lancaster pike and enter upon the main street of the borough. This is a crude structure which. in Colonial days, was known as a famous resort and the rendezvous of the Conestoga teamsters. The inn was kept by John Phipps, an Englishman, who at the breaking out of the war of ISI2. suddenly disappeared. After his departure, the inn was continued as a public house by Phipps' widow and from that time on was known as Mollie Phipps' hotel. The building is prac tically in the same condition as in the time following the war of ISI2. PA. STEEL PLANT SOLD TO SCHWAB [Continued From First Pago.] stocks held by the Pennsylvania Kail toad and Reading company Interests. Now that the sale of Pennsylvania Steel to Charles M. Schwab Is ap parently consummated. Steelton folks are predicting an era of prosperity for the local plant. Rumors of changes in management and product of the local plant have been widely circulated. None of these rumors however, seem to have the. slightest foundation in fact. Vice- President J. V. W. Reynders and a number of other officials at the local offices, when seen by a reporter, all de cline to make any comment on the. Schwab deal. Despite this, however, there is a deep-rooted feeling of optimism around the works and among Steelton businessmen. Everyone seems to feel that the local plant, recently Im proved by the expenditure of millions, will now enter upon an unprecedented era of prosperity. Since the new No. 5 blast furnace reached capacity—soo tons of pig iron daily—Thursday, the ingot production at the local plant has steadily in creased. The rolling mills, merchant mill, forge shops and the foundries are all running full time and the bridge and construction department, while not rushed, is operating at a good capacity. In this department the material for the big railroad bridge across the Mississippi river at Memphis, Tenn., is being turned out. Considerable construction work is still under way at the Steelton plant. Work Is being rushed on the new forging mill and a fence is being built to enclose the west end mills and the yards o* the new rolling mills. Within the few years in the neighborhood of $6,000,000 has been expended for improving and re habilitating the local plant. Modern rolling mills, formerly the property of the Milliken Iron Company. Staten Island, New York, have been pur chased and installed at the west end of the plant. The installation of a new ore yard with lnodern ore handling equipment is another improvement. The big clam shell scoop used in this yard picks up tons of ore at one sweep and dumps it on the storage heap. These larger improvements have been followed by numerous smaller improvements to the various depart ments. To-day. men who know the steel business, say the local plant is in the best shape in its history and ready to enter into a period of record production never before equaled. Looking for increased shipyard facilities and a steel plant on the Pennsylvania Railroad, Charles M. Schwab recently opened negotiations for purchase of the Pennsylvania Steel Company. Under the Donner direc tion this property,, too. has come largely through a reconstruction to take hold there also. The Schwab group outbids the Donner option price and so gets this company. For its holdings of $9,743,000 pre ferred and $7,388,900 common stock of the Pennsylvania Steel, bought for $10,748,1 40 some years ago, the Penn svlvania Railroad interest now realizes $12.329.1 1.1, making an apparent profit of $1.5R0,975 and about $1,300,- 000 more than would have been re ceived at the prices fixed more than a year ago for sale to Mr. Donner. Thus the combination of Mr. Rea's forethought, of Mr. Donner's ability, of the latent possibilities of the two s»eel properties for development under efficient management and of the pres ent big boom In steel industry has had happy results for Mr. Donner, whose success won him a $1,000,000 prize for the shareholders, big and little, of the companies who have had their prop erty enhance in value, and for the Pensylvanla Railroad and Reading company systems, which have not only been enabled to dispose of their holdings of steel stocks for much more than had been expected, but have also on their lines steel' properties largely developed and in good way to expand to greater importance.
