CHARTERS KEEP WHOLEFORCE BUSY Rush For Letters Patent at the Capitol the Greatest in Many Weeks Over 100 charters will be issued at the State Capitol this week, the num ber including eighty-five which were approved by Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh when he returned to the city from his wedding trip. This will represent one of the largest batches of letters patent ever Issued at one | time and will make the total for the first seven weeks of 1915 in the neighborhood of 250. The Governor signed the whole I eighty-five at one sitting, the pre | liminary investigations having been made by the corporation clerks of the State Department before they were !sent to the executive offices. This is the largest number signed at one time jin years. Once when John K. Tener waR governor he signed almost 100, including a large number of electric companies for Western Pennsylvania. When Governor Brumbaugh returned from California he signed fifty chart ers which had accumulated for him. The charter applications just signed will keep the attaches of the corpora tion bureau of the State Department busy for several days getting the pa pers recorded and preparing the let ters patent which must be signed by the Governor and Secretary of the Commonwealth and sealed with the great seal of the Commonwealth. Among the charter applications pending are a number for electric companies which are either listed for the Public Service Commission or have been approved by that body prior to being sent to the Governor for his action. A dozen such com panies have been chartered this month, mainly for Western Pennsyl vania.

York High will play i at the Auditorium Thursday night! with the Tech high live. This con- j test was scheduled for Friday night, j but because of the Interschool de-1 bate was moved up one day. Earlier in the season tlie White I Rose aggregation walloped the locals | down on the York floor in an easy I manner. The Maroon team is in good j shape, and is preparing to give Coach \ Bilheimer's squad another defeat. On Friday evening Central will i travel to Steelton. This is the first of ; the league series between these, two teams, and it should lie a battle royal. Lancaster will play Reading on the | same evening, and as the result of I these six games several shake-ups will | likely result. | Camp Hill High will visit Tamaqua | Friday night. The cross-river live has a rather pretentious schedule, and in j another season should have a strong | team because of this year's experi | ence. On the same night Middletown High visits Hershey to play the high school representing the Chocolate town. Sat urday Schuylkill Seminary will play a return game with the Academy team in this city, and Coach Tatern's aggregation hopes to even up the de- I feat sustained earlier in the season at | Reading. Telegraph Team Adds Two to Its String of Victories The Harrisburg Telegraph basket ball team returned yesterday from a successful two-day trip on which they added two more scalps to their al ready lengthy string. On Friday the team defeated Fawn Grove and Satur day evening Sxewartstown, by the scores of 29 to 25 and 35 to 25 re spectively. The Harrisburg attraction brought out In each town the largest representation that bad ever attended basketball games in either place. "Red" Crane, who will cover short stop for the Athletics next season, was the addition to the team on this journey, taking the place of Stack pole who was unable to make the trip. Crane was enthusiastically received in both places and responded nobly with six and live field goals in the two games. The defensive work of Yoder, Edmunds and Storey was of a high order, while Gebbard, Crane and Yoder starred in floor work and shooting. The local players were loud in their praise of tlie cordial treatment that was accorded them in both towns by managers Duncan and Brown. CENTRAL DROPS GAME Central High tossers lost at Leba non Saturday night, score 42 to 22. The local five was off in shooting, los ing opportunities on foul goals.

Both complained that they had caught colds in the jury room. J. Frank Sourbeer, foreman of the Shuman jury, didn't mind the cold although he was a bit peevish at the wages he received. Sourbeer was one of the Shuman jurors examined but not accepted for service in the Kotur case. Without hesitancy he declared that he was not satisfied with what the county paid him for four or live days' work. The county pays $2.50 per day for jury duty. Missing Member of Sixth Ward Election Board Is Arrested Declaring that he had never left the city Delano Jones, the missing officer of the Second precinct, Sixth ward election hoard was arrested yesterday by Patrolman Edward Murphy in his old haunts in the "Sixth."

The other members are W. H. Young, William Jones, George Moore and J. H. Reed. The board is charged with having made fraudulent returns at the September primaries in their efforts to defeat IJeriron A. Weills for the Republican nomination for constable. Parents of Girl Killed By Poison Ask Release of Her Student Sweetheart Chicago, Feb. 14.—The parents of Marian Lambert, the Lake Forest High school girl found dead in the woods near the suburb last Thursday, have appealed to State's Attorney Ralph Dady, of Lake county, to re lease William H. Orpet, the University of Wisconsin student, held at Wauke gan on a charge of murder. The Lamberts told the State's attorney they had doubt of the guilt of young Orpet and they had no desire to be vindictive toward the young man. State's Attorney Dady was willing to admit to-day that unless he can prove that Orpet gave his former sweetheart poison he cannot convict the student of murder. Although the nature of the poison which caused the girl's death has been determined by a partial analysis of the stomach, the officers are at a loss to account for the container. Sheriff Griffin of Lake county said his men had searched every section of the woods whore the body was found and had visited every drug store in Madison and in towns along the lake shore from Waukegan to Evanston. Pictures of Orpet were shown, but no evidence was found that he had purchased poison. In the sixty letters which passed between the girl and Orpet—thirty five written by him and twenty-five by her—the romance of the two ha 3 been traced from its inception to the time of the tragedy. The missives show, the officers say, that alarm was felt about the girl's condition as early as last September, but the crisis passed and their fears were allayed until recently. HCTCHUSOV TO TAKE REST Colonel Joseph B. Hutchison, com mander of the Eighth regiment, N". G. P.. was to-day granted a leave of ab sence from National Guard duty, from February 8 until May I. Colonel Hutchison has not been in the best of health, and has been advised by the family physician to take a rest.

Capin, of Capln and Capin. whose store at 430-A Market street, was dam aged by tire which the authorities sus pected of incendiary origin, made statement to-day in which be said that a careful investigation of the circum stances leads him to the belief that the tire was entirely accidental. Said he: "I was ill 011 the night of the fire and my son was left to bank the tire. The bottom of the stove door was broken and T believe it might have be come loosened, letting the draught on full and overheating the stove, which was of the cannon type. As to celluloid collars and straw hats being about the stove, the callts as still on the shelC untouched and if the straw hats were on the floor they were knocked there by those who entered the store when the firemen came to extinguish the flames. There is to my mind no indican tion of incendiarism." THINKS MAN IHJKGLAK: TEARS CLOTHES FROM BACK After walking into the wrong house yesterday morning, Charles W.
