Smoked Cigarettes
For 22 Years
Habit Was Ruining Him,
But He Conquered It in
Three Days, Easily.
The portrait below is that of Mr. P. J.
Klizagaray, a well-known citizen of
.. Jf'.ivingston. Montana, who knew that
; fbls life was being ruined through the
pernicious habit of cigarette smoking,
yet could not find anything to stop It
and solace the nervous craving until he
sot the remarkable book that can now
be obtained free.
A clergyman. Rev. jr. Boss, I'ayton.
Ohio, testifies that after having been a
slave to tobacco 44 years, he got rid of
the habit entirely in a few days, great
ly improving his health.

That he could never quit was the fe-ir

for many years, but after getting the
book, he learned how the habit could

craving and is in much improved
health.
HOOK til VEX FREE.
A valuable, interesting book on how
to overcome the tobacco habit (in any
form) has been written by Kdw. J.
Woods, 0211., Station E, New York. N.
Y.. and he will send it free to anyone
who writes asking for it, as he is very
anxious that all who are victims of the
craving for tobacco, snuff, cigars, or
cigarettes may save themselves easily,

Dope Law Reduces Sale
of Narcotics 80 Per Cent.
/ The question as to whether the legis
lative committee of the Pennsylvania
Pharmaceutical Association, shall have
a bill drafted providing- for State anti
narcotic regulation to supplement the
Harrison Federal act and afford still
further protection to the public, will
doubtless come up for discussion at
the annual meeting at Reading luia
year, especially in view ot the state
ments recently made in the newspapers
that the number of drug habitues has
not decreased.
Declarations have been made by the
jobbing and manufacturing interests
through whose hands these narcotic
drugs originally pass, that the total
amount imported and sold has been re
~ duced about 80 per cent.; therefore the
conditions referred to must be local
and not general.
As the Pennsylvania Pharmaceutical
Association was prominently identified
with the passage of the Pennsylvania
cocaine law of 1909 one of the fore
runners of the Harrison act, and has
energetically worked for years to aid
in the passage o£ Federal legislation,
it gives the members much satisfaction
to learn from the first annual report of
the Internal Revenue Commissioner on
the administration of tne Harrison act,
that out of o 1!,157 druggists registered
in the United Stat'es under this act, i
only 216 violations of the law were re
ported and most of these were of a
technical character and not violations
of the spirit of the law.
These figures show that over 99.6 per
cent, of pharmacists are found to be
complying with a law, which, so far as
they are concerned, is full of hardships,
pitfalls and arbitrary requirements.
For instance, it is perfectly legal and
proper to sell over the counter to any
customer certain household remedies or
medicines containing minute amounts
•if narcotic drugs too small to become
habit forming and specifically permitted
by the exemption clauses of the act. but
if a prescription is presented calling
for any quantity, however small, of one
of these preparations compounded with
another medicine, that prescription is
subject to all of the restrictions which
a really habit forming prescription
■ alls for and therefore cannot be re
newed.
The multitudinous records and reports
and the extraordinary care which must
attend all handling of narcotic drugs
falls with greater force upon pharma
cists than upon physicians.
As the primary object of the law is
the benefit of the public and as reports
show that this object is being achiev
ed. there is no disposition on the part
<>f pharmacists to do more than protest
against such inconsistent ruling as that
of Treasury Decision No. 2213, the prac
tical effect of which is explained above.
The ruling should either be modified or
withdrawn, or else all exemptions
should be abolished. As the latter would
necessitate the amending of the law
iself. it would seem more practical to
modify the ruling.

" islrSsJuuMl State's fish hatch -
erles and t'ommis
perlments are successful restocking
and rejuvenation of stock will be un
dertaken on a big scale next year.
It is calculated that about 3,000,000
brook trout, one year old, will be sent
out to the trout strcas and creeks of
the State and as many brown trout
as can be raised will then be placed
in the lakes. There are numerous
small spring water lakes in the State
and it is the idea to make them
popular fishing places. In addition to
brown trout they will be stocked with
perch and other fish.
Attention will also be given to
transfusion and building up of stock
of fish which have run down through
scarcity of their usual food and the
destruction of many by fishermen.
The "planting" of trout is being
pushed this Spring as rapidly as the
weather permits, some fish having
been liberated in trout streams during
the mild weather of last week.
Expect to Get More. Officials of
the State Board of Education expect
t to secure control of a number of ad
ditional normal schools before the
close of the year. Propositions for
two schools are now pending and the
stockholders of others are voting.;
The next Legislature will be asked to
make a larger appropriation as the
board will then be in possession of
information on which it can calculate
exactly what will be required.

By a vote of 6 to 4 Steelton's council
last evening appointed O. E. B. Male
horn chief of the borough's volunteer
lire department, to succeed John E. i
Shupp who has held the office for
eight years.
j Charles F. Kramer, of the Citizen
' company, was appointed first assistant
j and Thomas Brosey, also of the Citi- j
zen company, was named second as- j
sistant.
Xot in years perhaps has the rivalry
for any office been so strong as for
this year's contest for chief. For
weeks past the contest for this office
has eclipsed in interest all other niuni
; cipal questions.
The Battle Begins
At first there were three candidates
i for the chieftaincy but a few days
ago Mr. Kramer withdrew in favor of.
Mr. Malehorn.
The appointment of a fire chief
came up near the end of the evening's
meeting and the tension under which,
the councilmen were working was evt
| dent throughout the earlier past of
the session by the brief snappy dis
i cussions as contrasted to the usually I
\ verbose reports of the various com- j
inittee chairmen at other meetings.
When President Reynders called for
nominations for tire chief there was a
few moments' pause. The Shupp
backers were the first to make a move.
Mr. Nelly in a few brief words placed
the name of Chief Shupp before Coun
cinl. "We all know Mr. Shupp by his
record as a fireman and as a chief for
| two terms. I would give him no
•stronger recommendation than his
j record."
The Opposition
Mr. Nelly was scarcely in his seat I
when Mr. Henderson rose. "I would
recommend to the consideration of
. you gentlemen the name of a fireman,
a businessman and a taxpayer—good
fireman, who has attended practically
all the fires in recent years—the name
of O. E. B. Malehorn."
The nervous strain was evident
when Mr. Henderson sat down. Prac
tically every councilman fidgeted in
his seat and toyed with the books or
pencils in front of him. Without a!
word the ballots were passed. With
out hesitation each councilman wrote
a name.
Borough Secretary C. P. Feidt and
Assistant Secretary Charles R. Hoi- 1
ton collected the slips and retired to
a corner of the room.. In a second
the vote was announced. It was Male- :
horn 6, Shupp 4.
Mr. Malehorn Wins
"The chain declares Mr. Malehorn
elected." said President Reynders.
The name of Jesse Rhoads, was 1
then placed before council by Mr. i
McEntee, "to fulfill a promise," he ex- ;
plained. The name of Mr. Kramer
I was put before council by Mr. Reisch. j
The vote was Rhoads 4. Kramer 6.
Mr. Shelley then nominated Thomas
Brosey for second assistant and Mr.
Sellers nominated Harry Martzen. Mr.
; Reisch nominated Thomas Decker.'
| The vote was Brosey 5, Martzen 4 and
Decker 1.
Mr. Malehorn, the new chief is o
| painter by trade, and is a member of
the firm of Malehorn Brothers. Hf;
j has been prominently identified with :
' the business and civic activities of the
I borough and has been president of the
Hygienic Hose company for seven
years.
More Money For Mr. Mefthey
Other matters acted upon by coun
cil included the granting of a $5
monthly increase in salary to Jacob
B. Meshey, highway commissioner,
I and the installation of a borough
phone in his home. He nearly re-
I ceived an automobile to inspect the
streets. Such a purchase was sug
-1 gested and formally moved by Mr.
Shelley, but before it could be acted !
uopn Mr. McEntee made a motion to j
| adjourn, which was passed.
The pay for overtime to the bor
ough patrolmen was increased from
18 to 21 cents an hour and another
1 telephone was ordered installed in
j Chief of Police Longnaker's home.
Merchants on Job
The license measure backed by the
Merchants' Association was introduc
ed by Mr. Shelley and passed first
reading. It provides license regula
tions for all hucksters and itinerant
I dealers.
Following a debate in which Mr.
| Shelley opposed and Messrs. Hender
son, Nelly and McEntee favored the
ordinance calling for the grading of
Park street, the borough's formal en
trance into Luther R. Kelker park, the
j measure was passed finally and the
highway committee instructed to have
!the work done at a cost not to exceed
30 cents a cubic yard. The ordinance
; transferring land for the formal en
trance to Kelker park and adopting
Warren H. Wanning's sketch of the
Wright and BrightMU tract was also
; passed finally.
No Lockup Keeper
Upon the advise of Borough Solici
tor F. B. Wickersham the ordinance
I abolishing the office of lockup keeper
I was held under advisement.
Burgess Fred Wigfield read his an
nual report in whivb a number of rec-
ommcndations concerning the police
department were made,
j A bid amounting to $1,845, with an
alternate bid of $1,598 was for the
repair of the Paxtang Hook and Lad
der Hose house was referred back to
the town property committee. It was
■ too high.
Shupp's Last Report
i The appointment of Newton Mc-
Camey as driver fyr the Citizen Fire
company was approved.
Fire Chief John E. Shupp in his an
nual report said that there were 23
tiros and three false alarms during the
year. The total loss was $7,66 3. CUM
Shupp strongly urged the motoriza
tion of the department and made a
number of other suggestions for the
betterment ot the service.
Much other routine business was
transacted.
PLAN MEN'S MEETINGS

isterial Association of Steelton and

PA. STEEL SALE
EXPECTED SOON
Either Donner or Schwab Will
Gain Control This Week,
Is Rumor
Sfecial to the Ttligraph
Philadelphia. Feb. 15. —Indications .
are that the Pennsylvania Steel Com
pany will be sold before the end of
this week. Whether control will p&ss
to Charles M. Schwab, president of the 1
Bethlehem Steel Corporation, or to j
William H. Donner, president of Cam- j
bria Steel and chairman of the Penn
sylvania Steel board, is a question not j
yet answered.
It was said yesterday that a confer
ence was held by those interested in
the negotiations. According to reports,
this meeting was attended by Donner, !
a representative of Schwab's, officials j
of the Pennsylvania Company and the
Reading Iron Company and Effingham ]
B. Morris, a Pennsylvania Railroad
director, who represents the company
on the Pennsylvania Steel board. Later
Sir. Donner declined to discuss Penn
sylvania Steel affairs.
It is generally believed that if Don
ner parts with the 38 per cent, in
| terest which he holds it wilt be for a ;
high price. Schwab has offered the I
railroads, which together hold another |
38 per cent, of the stock, SIOO for the |
i preferred and S4O for the common,
agreeing to make payment In 3 per
cent, bonds. There was a report yes- j
terday that lie had later offered to pay !
for the stock in five-year notes.
If Donner sold his holdings to j
Schwab, he would probably demand I
cash, and for this reason many persons |
believe that the Cambria head will not
sell, but, on the other hand, will en- :
deavor to obtain the railroads' shares.
If Schwab obtained Pennsylvania Steel!
it would add a valuable unit to the 1
Bethlehem Steel Corporation, as the [
Pennsylvania has excellent shipbuild- i
ing facilities at its Sparrows Point,
Md., plant.

ACID FOUNDAT HOME
OF BOY SUSPECT
[Continued From First Pane. ]
j States Attorney Dady and Police
I Chief Griffin, in searching the ground
over which Orpet's father has charge,
found mixed in an ash heap behind
the caretaker's home a quantity of
the deadly drug that killed Marian
Lambert. A short distance away
they found a tin can that had con
tained the drug. The acid, in lump
form, apparently had been dumped
from the can into the ashes, then
j mixed with the ashes and the can
! thrown away. The barn In which the
! drug had been kept was unlocked,
I according to Mr. Dady.
"This is the most important link
I yet discovered," said Mr. Dady. Ap
; patently some one has been attempt
j ing to conceal evidence. It means
other arrests may follow."
Prussia*' Acid Killed ller
Dr. E. R. Le Count, pathologist on
i the staff of Coroner Hoffman, con
ducted the principal examination of
the dead girl's organs.
"The poison was prussiac acid," said
Dr. Le Count. "The crystals of the
poison were dissolved. The exact
nature of the liquid in which they
were dissolved I could not ascertain.
It might have been water or It might
have been sulphuric acid.
"The crystals of poison found on
the girl's hand and in her hair after
her death may have formed after the
liquid had evaporated. It probably ;
was not water, because in such an
event the girl's face would not have
been burned."
The formal accusation of Orpet as,
responsible for the girl's death and a
stern demand that justice be not
tempered in his case were made by !
Frank Lambert, her father. Her;
mo'.her is in a critical condition as a
result of her death. At the same time,
Orpet's father pronounced him inno
cent of any crime, and said he would
aid him with every cent at his com- j
mand.
Detective H. B. Reardsley dlscov- I
i ered the sale of the bottle In Madison j
! while making 'he rounds of the drug
stores. lie entered the Tiedmann
! Pharmacy and questioned Charles W. j
Hassinger, a clerk. For a tlrfie Has
singer, who is a friend of Orpet,
spoke reluctantly of tfle case.
"I sold him a bottle," he finally
admitted. "I sold It to him the morn
ing lie went away."
"What was in It?" demanded
Beardsley.
"It was empty, honest it was," pro
tested Hassinger. "It was a two-
I ounce bottle."
It was Tuesday evening Orpet left
Madison for his trip to meet the
| Lambert girl. After he had given up
! this information Hassinger decided to
speak further.
"It wasn't the first time he had been
here." he stated. "I helped him out.
once before. That was last August."
This was at the time that Marian
Lambert began to fear for her health.
Plenty of Poison in University
"When Orpet came into the store
last Tuesday he asked me if T was
going home during the examination
vacations. I told him that I was. He
! seemed disappointed. "I wanted you
to do me a favor." lie said, but he left
the store without telling me what he
wanted me to do. Now I think that
I he wanted me to mail the letter
i Wednesday which he gave to Otto
■ Peterson, another student."
In the Chemistry building of the
I University of Wisconsin, where Orpet
studied. Dr. R. I. Sehnael, the store
-1 keeper, said cyanide of potassium in
| crystal form was kept in great quan
-1 tities.
From the statements of Marian
i Lambert's schoolgirl friends it be
came known her death followed an
attempt to deceive Orpet into a keener
sense of responsibility for her wel
fare. For two weeks, they declared.
Marian knew the world need
never know of her clandestine affair
with Orpet, At the same time she

| received letters from him. coldly tell
ing her that lie "was through." Then
she decided to let him continue be
lieving she was in need of his pro
tection.
That Orpel Believed her is evident
from the letter he wrote her announc
: ing that he would visit l>ake Forest
I and meet her at "The Three Oaks."
He wrote: "If everything is not all
j right by the time I see you it will be
I i then. Leave it to me."
I John P. Taylor, coroner of Lake
county, said:
I "Wljen I examined the body I
| found no signs that there had been
I I an operation. If the girl told Orpet
! she was in trouble, she was either
. i under a wrong impression or was de
i; liberately trying that means to hold
i a club over his head. -Since she
• knew her condition was normal, sul
i! cide is not the normal conclusion."
■ i In his cell Orpet was nervous to
| day. He constantly asked for cigarets,
•; but his jailers permitted him to smoke
only a pipe. He greeted his visitor
: | with a smile, and was pleased when
j told they were sure ho was innocent
! of the charge of murder,
j "I'll tell all there is to tell." he said.
"I am Innocent of any crime in eon
i! nection with Marian's death, and
' there is no reason why I should not
1 talk freely. I'll start right from the
I beginning. I have lived in Lake For
est all my life. I first met Marian
. | at Deerfleld High School in Highland
, ! Park in 1913. I was a senior and she
i I was a freshman. That was merely an
' j acquaintanceship. We sometimes took
the same car to and from school, as
we both lived in Lake Forest.
"It was while I was home on my va
t cation last summer that we grew to
jbe close friends. That was about in
j June. In July and until September
1 she was at the Association House In
• West North avenue, and I called there
| to see her several times. We were
1 ! never more than friends. I never told
j her that I loved her, and I never did."
[ "Do you suppose she thought you
L | loved her and would propose mar
; riage later?"
Told Her He Loved Her
"She should not have, but presum
ably she did. I took her out several
times, but while the relationship be
! tvveen us was intimate, there was
never any real love as far as I know,
jWe were together frequently. I liked
| her and told her that much. I don't
think it shows anything that wc were
; often together. It was like other boys
and girls. The girl was to blame as
much as I was.
"While I was away at school we
corresponded, and while our letters
were of an intimate nature they could
not be misconstrued as love letters.
; I never had anything against her. I
1 simply didn't consider our relation
ship in a serious light.
| "I had no reason to wish for the
■ death of Marian and 1 am absolutely
; innocent of any part in her death.
She wrote to me and told me she
• thought she was in trouble and that
■ she was despondent. 1 tried to do all
that I could for her in the circum
; i stances, and it was to see if I could
, aid her that 1 made the appointment
; j with her and met hei:
"I thought then it would be a good
| thing to establish an alibi,, because I
• did not think we should be seen to-
I gether while she was in trouble. I
| realize now that it was the most
; foolish thing I could have done. If
;i I had to do the whole thing over
. again I would act quite differently.
| I would be straight and honest in
' everything.
; "As far as there being any suicide
pact between us, that is untrue and
j ridiculous. I didn't have the least
j idea that suicide was even thought
jof by her. I didn't take it as seriously
[ ' as that."
