Several weeks ago Mr. Shaffer, the widower, decided the absence of a woman in the household could be en dured no longer.

The- postmaster posted the letter in Jtls office. Mrs. Anna May Wright, a widow. 23. of Easton. read it.

THE LETTER SHOP Phone 4038-J Bell THURSDAY EVENING, HXRRtSBORG ffijftt TELEGRAPH DECEMBER 30,1915. TELEGRAPH FOLK ANNUAL DINNfeR More Than Hundred Eat Mightily of Turkey and Other Good Things The Telegraph Family enjoyed its annual holiday dinner last evening in Chestnut Street Hall as the guests of S. J. Stack pole, presidsent of The Tele graph Printing Company. Considerably more than a hundred sat down to the prettily decorated tables, thanked their stars that the "grip" had passed them by so that they could be there, ate mightily of turkey and other good things and passed resolutions of sym pathy for sundry members of the Family who were laid up with the most popular malady of the season. Time was when* a private dining room of one of the hotels was amply large enough for a Telegraph Family gathering, but in recent years the num bers have grown so rapidly that last night It was found necessary to engage the banquet room of Chestnut Street Hall for the purpose. Mr. Stackpole presided and sad dened the hearts of the galley boys and others who had prepared to outdo CktUQMy Depew by announcing at the very beginning of the dinner that there would be no speechmaking. The menu cards bore the city flag, the national colors and a picture of the host. Com petent judges present pronounced them fully up to the high standard required by the Telegraph Printing Company of all commercial printing. Not that there was doubt for a moment on that score. My goodness, no! There never is any doubt about the quality of Tele graph printing. The second page bore in fac simile the following greeting from Mr. Stack pole: Harrisburg, Pa., Dec. 29. 1915. To the Telegraph Family—every one: As we gather once more arounu tiie Family board and exchange the felicitations of the season, may we all feel a strengthening of the ties which bind us happily together as an association of workers. Let n« earnestly resolve as we approach the threshold of another year to be ever more helpful one to the other than ever before, and to scatter along the pathway of life the pearls of kind words and loving deeds. It is my sincere wish that every member of the Family may experi ence in tlie new year great happi ness and prosnerity and everv good thing. Cordially '-ours. K. J. STACKPOLE. Favors and Presents The dinner favors were in the form of Christmas crackers and in addition a table at one end of the hall was piled high with mysterious packages, which, it developed, contained a pres ent for each guest in attendance. The presents consisted of all manner of noise-making instruments, rubber balls, dolls, .lumping-jacks and other toys of mirth-provoking nature. During the dinner Mr. Stackpole made a brief address, thanking the Family for its gift of a growing holly tree trimmed with cards bearing the Christmas greetings of each man and woman and boy and girl connected with the Telegraph establishment and sent to him a year ago when he was seri ously ill. He said he was sorry that his sickness had prevented a dinner last year, but added that he had arranged in the future that the holi day feast should be held regularly whether he colild be present or not. He dwelt upon the loyalty of the Tele graph Family as a whole and said that the efficiency of the plant had been increased thereby and its growth pro moted. After the dinner the Family danced for a time and then adjourned to the Majestic Theater for the closing show of the evening. Altogether it was one of the most delightful of the social reunions which the Telegraph Family periodically enjoys.

WOULD ARBITRATE BORDER DISPUTES [Continued From First Page.] posal are so far being held as con fidential between the State Depart ment and the Latin-American chan cellories here. Mr. Landing to-day declined entirely to discuss It in any phase and the diploiaais uniformly declared they could not discuss a mat ter which was in Its preliminary stage and under consideration by their home foreign offices. Outlined Proposals I It became known, however, that | soon after Secretary Lansing delivered 1 his Pan-American unity speech be i fore the scientific congress in which he I advocated a Pan-American "one for 1 all and all for one" he began inviting | the Latin-American representatives jto the State Department two at a ■ time and outlining to them his pro posal. A the same time, u is under stood the secretary's public declara tion which had attracted much favor able attention among the Latin Am ericans because of Its suggestion that all the opinions among American na tions should if necessary constitute a united bulwark against any unjust invasion or aggression against a neighbor was discussed in some detail and uniformly it Is understood the Latin Americans expressed their ap probation of Mr. Lansing's state ments. The technical form in which the new proposal was made was not disclosed to-day but there are indica- I tions that It took the usual form of a i memorandum to the diplomats, and j was In such official form as could be : transmitted to their home govern- I ments as the basis for action. Would Preserve Peace | One of the first elements of the ; proposal which has for one of its j ultimate objects the welding of a ! thoroughly united America Is the pre serving of peace on the American continent. It is realized that the chief menaces to such a peace are boundary disputes and revolutionary activity. It is pointed out that if all boundary disputes are removed to the realm of arbitration, and all the Pan American nations bind themselves to absolutely prohibit shipments of war munitions to any other than estab lished governments, peace among the nations themselves would practically be assured and the attention of all the American nations could be de voted to what Secretary Lansing ex pressed in iiis speech as working out their destinies. Many of Mr. Lansing's declarations to the Pan-Amcrican Congress took on added significance to-day in the light, of his proposals to the Latin-American proposals. "Within recent years," said he, "the United States has found no occasion, with the exception of the Venezuelan 'boundary Incident to remind Europe ! that the Monroe Doctrine continues | unaltered a national policy in this re jpublic. The republics of America are no longer children in the great family |of nations. They have attained ma turity." "With all earnestness, therefore, I commend to you the thought of the American republics, twenty-one sov ereign and independent nations bound together by faith and justice and firm ly cemented by a sympathy which knows no superior and no inferior, but which recognizes only all equality and fraternity." Women Should bo Trained Ida M. Tarbell told the Pan-Am erican scientific congress to-day that the education of a woman should be based on the assumption that she will marry. "The woman as a rule comes to her task without systematic training," said Miss Tarbell. "Parents gener ally consent that when she marries she can pick up what she needs to know. The results are deplorable. Training should be general and should begin in the kindergarten and con tinue through the schools. Nothing else is going to lift the stigma that now rests on housekeeping labor for hire." Toledo Mayor Says He'll Stick to His Office Now Until He Is Thrown Out Toledo. 0., Dec. 30. Mayor Carl H. Keller announced this morning his intention of fighting to retain his office after January 1, and to refuse to ad mit the legality of the election of Charles M. Mllroy, who was elected on a plurality .of second choice votes under the preferential system of vot-j ing. "1 had made, up my mind." said Keller, "to leave this office like a gentleman without protest. Now that they have tried to club me into I it. I'll stick until I'm thrown out." The mayor's reference to clubbing was in connection with the indict ment returned to-day charging him with accepting a bribe. He claims it was brought by political enemies to compel him to relinquish his office without contesting the legality of Mllroy's election.

TRAMP OCCUPIES TEACHER'S HOME [Continued From first Page,] A well-dressed fellow responded. "What are you doing here?" the professor asked the stranger. "I'm here on a visit.," was the reply. "Why, this is my home and that is my suit you are wearing." the professor de clared. Finding himself "In wrong," the tramp attempted to escape, but the professor showed his athletic training by locking the husky hobo in a closet and stood guard while his wife tele phoned for Sheriff Hackenberg, who took the intruder in charge. The tramp has likely occupied the Stewart residence since the close of Rucknell University for the Christmas holidays, as upon investigation the Stewarts found the pantry had been depleted and the beds and other parts of the house showed signs of hard usage. The tramp had all the stoves in the house fired up, the number of dirty towels in the bathroom Indicated that the stranger had taken a bath or two, and everything else about the premises proved that he had made himself very much at home. The tramp was completely fitted out with Professor Stewart's clothing from underwear, suit, shirts, collars, cufTo and necktie. J Surgeons Refuse to Operate on Nose and Throat Because of Grip New York. Dec. 30.—Physicians and surgeons were warned by the New York Health Department to-day to delay operations upon the nose and throat until the epidemic of the grip now prevailing is ended. Dr. D. Bry son Delevan. at whose suggestion the warning was issued, said that physi cians learned during the great grip epidemic of 1895 that nasal oper ations could not be successfully per formed when such an epidemic was prevalent. "When the grip prevails, any oper j ation on the nose is apt to be follow ied by an acute attack of Influenza, • although up to the time of the oper ation the patient may have shown no [signs of any such trouble," said Dr. I Delevan. Dr. Samuel Z. Shope. ear, eye, nose and throat specialist of this city, an nounced when interviewed, that ever since the epidemic of grip hit the city he has been consistently refusing to operate on nose and throat cases He said that already this week he has refused to operate in twenty-three cases. "The mucous membrane of the nose and throat is the fort which re pels the attacks of the grip germ and when you operate and cut this mem brane. you are putting breaches into this fort and laying yourself open to immediate attack." Grip Tightens Its Hold, Crippling Industries The grip is tightening its hold on 1 larrtsburg. Department stores, the telephone companies, and a number of industries are working shorthanded because the employes are home nurs ing colds, fevers and chills. New cases reported show a large I number of women now 111, including employes of the Bell Telephone Com pany. Businessmen in Market street report at least 160 employes off with the grip. To date, records at the office of the local health board show only three deaths from grip in ten days. Dr. J. M. J. Raunick, health officer, says they were people over CO years of age. Five deaths resulted from pneumonia. Travelers Stop at County's Marriage Bureau For Licenses To-day was "transients' day" at the Dauphin county marriage license bu reau and several of the couples who called for the necessary wedding pa pers stopped here en route for some point or other. Incidentally, the cleri cal force wondered a little as to whether or not there might not have been a romance or two in the day's docket records. Among the applicants were Willard Diniock Hill, who said he is a farmer by •occupation, but who is now living in Xew York, and Miss Louise Blod gett. who is an extension worker of St. Louis. They were en route to Buf falo. George TV. Grove, a 45-year-old ice cream manufacturer of Williams port. and pretty 22-year-old Ruby A. McCoy, of the same city, constituted another traveling couple. She gave her occupation as a domestic. The clerks scented a little church romance in the application of Harold L. Rom berger and Ellen P. Bechtel. of Eliz abethville. The bride-to-be plays the organ in the United Brethren Church in that town. 200,000 New York Workers to Get Big Wage Increases By Associated Press New York. Dec. 30.

Trolley service on all lines in the city and to suburban points was re ported on schedule time during the day, and with the weather partly cloudy and no more rain or sleet, little trouble is expected.

ALLIED FORCES SINK AUSTRIAN DESTROYERS JS4H twmupuo.)] 3.9-lnch guns, six 11-pounders and two torpedo tubes. Russians Launch Drive Although Petrograd remains silent on the subject, the public Inclined to believe the Russians are undertaking a great offensive in Bukowina near the Bessarablan border. Official Austrian reports telling of attacks by dense masses of Russian troops indicate that an important battle is under way. The fighting centers at a point near Toporoutz. a small town just within the border of Northern Bukowina, but a simultaneous attack is being made along an extended front reaching from the Pruth to a position north of the Dniester, a distance of about forty miles. The latest advices state that the Russian assault is being continued, accompanied by an unusually heavy bombardment. Unofficial reports from the extreme northern portion of the eastern front state the Germans have made a seri ous but futile attack in the region of I.<ake Babit, whtle the Russians west of Lake Kanker are threatening Mltau, These opposing attacks create a deli cate situation, as a successful advance by either would endanger considerable forces of the defeated opponent. French Win in Vosges Along the western front, except for mining and aerial engagements on the British lines, the chief fighting seems to be confined to the Vosges. where, in the region of Hartmans-Weilerkopf, the French elalnt to have made a suc cessful advance. Berlin officially mini mizes this success, but does not deny it wholly. Nothing has happened to change the Macedonian position, but It Is gen erally believed that any advance into Greek territory must be made by the Bulgarians, the opinion being that the Austro-Germans cannot spare enough troops for a serious attempt against Saloniki. Domestic tension In England over the compulsion question has been greatly relieved. Speculation continues concerning the method which is to be adopted to reach eligible unmarried men. a majority agreeing that the Derby plan of attestation will be ex tended for this purpose.

M.—ln an editorial discussing the article recently printed by the Neue Zuericher Zeitung of Zurich, Switzer land, purporting to give the terms upon which Germany is ready to con sider peace, the Nord Deutsche AII - Zeitung says: "In the foreign press there is an ob servable inclination to use the article of the Neue Zuericher Zeitung as the ground for speculations over peace and war alms.
