FOR INDIGESTION,
GASES, SOURNESS,
ACID STOMACHS
The moment "Pape's Diapepsin"
reaches the stomach all
distress goes.
Don't suffer! Eat without fear
of an upset stomach or
dyspepsia.
__
Do some foods you eat hit back—
taste good, but work badly; ferment
into stubborn lumps and cause a sick,
sour, sassy stomach? Now, Mr. or
Mrs. Dyspeptic Jot this down: Pape's
Diapepsin digests everything, leaving
nothing to sour and upset you. There
never was anything so safely quick, so
certainly effective. No difference how
badly your stomach is disordered you
will get happy relief in live minutes,
but what pleases you most is that it
'strengthens and regulates your stom
ach so you can cat your favorite foods
'without fear.
Most remedies give you relief some
times —they are slow, but not sure.
"Pape's Diapepsin" is quick, positive
and puts your stomach in a healthy
condition so the misery won't come
back.
You feel different as soon as "Pape's
Diapepsin" comes in contact with the
stomach —distress just vanishes—your
s-toinach qets sweet, no gases, no belch
ing, no et-uc tatlons of undigested food,
your head clears and you feel tine.
Go now, make the best investment
you ever made, by getting a large
tifty-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin
from any drug store. You realize in
live minutes how needless it is to suf
fer from indigestion, dyspepsia or any
stomach disorder.—Advertisement.

ailments. During these years he gave
to his patients a prescription made of
a few well-known vegetable ingredi

Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, you will
know them by their olive color.
These tablets are wonder-workers on
the liver and bowels, which cause a
normal action, carrying off the waste
and poisonous matter that one's system
collects.
If you have a pale face, sallow look
dull eyes, pimples, coated tongue, head
aches, n listless, no-good feeling, all
out of sorts, inactive bowels, you take
one of Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets
nightly for a time and note the pleas

Thousands of women as well as men

GERMAN PLOT TO
STRIKE CANADA
IS NOW RUMORED
Secret Service Find That 200,-
000 Rifles Were Sent to Bor
der From New York
WELLAND CANAL GOAL
|
To Dynamite Waterway to
Hold Wheat; Officers in Dis
guise Organizing Force
Sfecial to the Telegraph
j Xew York,, Feb. 7.—Facts tending
|to prove the existence of a German
plot to invade Canada for the purpose
of destroying the Welland Canal, the
object of which Is to prevent the ship
ment of wheat to the allied govern
ments, have been uncovered by detec
: tives of the Canadian Secret Service.
Other facts revealed by a secret in
vestigation, which has been prosecuted
j tor weeks in this city and in Connec
ticut, include the amazing develop
ments that approximately 200,000
titles have been purchased, by German
agents here and that these weapons
are being sent by stealth to the Cana-
Idlan border for use when the time
j comes to strike the blow against Can
ada.
Scores of Trained >lcn Here
It has also developed that during
the last six months scores of trained
| German army officers have come to
this city in the guise of Belgian refu
gees and Scandinavians and that these
| are now secretly organizing large coni
j panies of Germans with the avowed
purpose of making a raid upon the
Welland Canal. It is said by secret
service agents of Canada that many
thousands of men are enrolled for this
purpose and that the chief designn of
the movement is to cut off an impor
tant source of supply for the allied
governments now being sent abroad
by Canada.-
Another important development in
the statement of one who is well con
versant with the Situation that nearly
one-third of the munition contracts
entered into by the allied governments
with American manufacturers have
] been let to Germans under assumed
j names, and that these munitions have
I been stored away in places not yet dis
covered by Canadian Secret Service
I agents. These munitions, consisting of
; shells, shrapnel and immense stores
lot' ritles, it is said, have been paid for
Iby money deposited in various banks
lin this city for that purpose by well
known agents of the German govern
ment.
To Come Within Two .Months
That the raid of this army of Ger
mans is designed to be carried out
within the next two months was the
! statement made by one Canadian au
thority last night. According to the
director of a leading munition plant,
whose name for obvious reasons can-
J not be disclosed at this time, not a sin
gle rifle contracted for by the allied
| governments in the year of 1915 was
j shipped to Europe prior to last No
vember. What became of these rifles,
;the Canadian authorities have bent
their best efforts to learn, but thus far,
jit was admitted to-night, every effort
[to get reliable information regarding
| this has het with failure.

ordinary. The latest official bulletin
from < 'onstantinople reports changed
conditions for the Turks, who appar
ently have recently been under ex
tremely severe pressure by the Rus
j starts. Although the Ottoman forces
' around Erezerum seemingly have not
been successful in undertaking an of
fensive. they have been able to repulse
all the renewed Russian attacks, they
declare.
No change in the situation in Meso
potamia is indicated, the British relief
army being still stalled on the Tigris
some distance down the river from
Kut-el-Amara, it appears.
Germans Pounding Away
The heavy guns of the opposing
! armies are striving for dominance in
important sectors of the Franco-Bel
gian front. Berlin to-day reports
'artillery battles, which it characterizes
as " fierce" between I>a Bassee canal
and Arras, and south of the river
Somme, and likewise a vigorous bom-!
bardment of Dens by allied artillery.
The tirst mentioned sector, which
includes was the scene of the
. noiable advance by the British and
| French last September but recently
•the Germans have been pounding the
all ed lines here persistently with suc-
I cesses at certain points.
The region south of the Somme
i came into prominence not long since
with a sudden thrust by the Teutons:
who claimed the carrying of a line of i
trenches some 3500 yards long.
Intense artillery tire In these sectors!
may presage an attempt by the allies
to regain lost ground, or a German ef- |
foH to make further advances.

CAMBRIA STEEL
IS TAKEN OVER
[Continued From First Page.]
with plans for capitalizing the pro
posed corporation was looked for.
Victory For Donner
Announcement that the deal had'
failed came from New York when
Kulin, Loeb and Company and the Na
tional City Bank dropped their plans
for underwriting the consolidation.
This was followed by a statement in
this city by William H. Donner, presi
dent of Cambria Steel, that the mer
ger plans will not be taken up again.
He also said that plans were under
consideration for the development of
the company's property and intimated
that in a few days stockholders may
expect an announcement outlining the
future of Cambria Steel. The failure
of the merger plans is regarded as a
victory for Mr. Donner, who at no
time enthused over the proposition.
Excitement in Street
On the Stock Exchange to-day Cam
bria stocks opened at 7t> to 75, against
Saturday's closing price of 77*4 and
quic-kly advanced to 79, then back to
75, later advancing to 79%. In the
first 45 minutes there were transac
tions of 73,000 shares. Not since the
exciting flurry in Reading in 1893 lias
there been such heavy trading in a
stock on the local exchange.
There was a scene of excitement on
the Philadelphia Stock Exchange
when the opening gong rang to-day
due to the announcement of the fail
ure of the proposed merger of the
Cambria Steel. Lackawanna Steel and
Youngstown Sheet anil Tube com-,
panies. The stock of the Cambria
company had advanced briskly on
Saturday from 74' A to 78, closing at
77',a. To-day's openeing was 7ti to 75.
Th > stock quickly advanced to 79,'
then fell to 75 again and by 11'. 15
o'clock had advanced again to 79%.
In the first hour and a quarter the
transactions amounted to 102.900 ]
shares breaking all records for the
stock and exceeding in activity any j
dealing in a sins-'le stock since the ex
citement in Reading shares in 1893.
Statement by Donner
Soon after the exchange opened a
statement to shareholders was issued
by the three men who had been active
in the proposed merger. E. T. Stotes
bury, W. H. Donner and J. L. Rep
logle. The statement reads:
"While it is true as reported that
tho negotiation for the combination of
Cambria Steel Company with other
steel companies has been abandoned,
it is desirable that the stockholders
should be advised immediately that
other negotiations looking to the sale
of the stock have been practically con
summated at $Bl per share cash. It
is expected that a formal announce
ment will be made very shortly."
Cambria-Midvale Deal
May Mean Big Things
For Pennsylvania Steel
Just what effect the taking over
of the Cambria steel plant by the
Midvale interests will have upon the
Pennsylvania Steel Company is an
absorbing topic in Steelton and local
iron and steel circles.
William H. Donner, president of
Cambria, is chairman of the board
of directors and principal stockholder
in the local company. If he leaves
the Cambria company, as it is pre
dicted he will since to-day's big deal,
he will be able to devote all his time
to the development of the Pennsyl
vania Steel. This would mean big
things for Steelton.
Nearly $20,000,000 Is
Involved in Transfer of
450,000 Shares of Stock
New York, Feb. 7.—lt was stated
that William E. Corey, chairman of
the Midvale company, and his asso
ciates had taken over the option on
the majority of Cambria stock held
by William H. Donner, who repre
sents a syndicate of which Henry C.
Frick is a member.
The total outstanding Cambria
stock amounts to 450,000 shares and
it is believed the deal Involved in the
neighborhood of $20,000,000,
The Midvale Steel and Ordnance
Company was at the time of its or
ganization several months ago second
only to the UnUed States Steel Cor
poration In point of size. The addi
tion of the Cambria Steel Company

got the story of what led to Kotur's
attack. Kotur, Backic and some
companions were drinking in the
South Third street boardinghouse t
when they heard some6ne outside—
singing.
The Swan Song
Kotur. feared by most every one in ;
the foreign colony as one who had |
already slain a man, angrily strode to!
the door. Backic outside, sang on. ]
Kotur called to Backic; Backic re- j
plied. They both cursed each other |
and then Backic. stumbled Into the j
room. Kotur felled him with his fist;
—and Novokovlc started upstairs to ;
bed.
The next morning the bQarding
mistress found a pool of blooil at the
bottom of the steps. Nearby was a
bloody hammer. It is the State's |
theory that Kotur finished the job
with the hammer. Backic's body was
found outside the house. Two empty 1
beer kegs were arranged about the !
body in an effort to conceal it. Backic j
lay stretched out on the ground, his
hands folded across his breast.

Girl Snatched Up by
Bold Autoists, Report
Neither counts - nor city authorities |
have been able to throw any light on \
the mysterious conduct of two men i
who snatched Marie Taylor, a pretty
vaudeville actress, from the pavement
in front of Dives, Pomeroy & Stewart's
store and hurried southward with her
in a big curtained limousine.
Inquiry at the theaters developed
the fact that the visitors in the
limousine coaxed the girl Into the car
in order to obtain her signature to aj
contract to act with the company they j
represented.
Meager details which shifted from ;
the district attorney's oflice were to '
the effect that the girl had leaped from j
the car as it sped along the road
toward Highspire. Another story that
was circulated was that the girl had
been coerced into the limousine In or
der to further some plan to sue a New
York youth for breath of promise. The
method, however, had all the ear
marks of a "movie" plot. The girl
appeared at the entrance to the store '
when she was told that, a relative lay j
dying. She fainted —and one of the
men carrying a physician's kit stepped
from the car and lifted her In. Then
the car sped away.
