The death of Commissioner Cun ningham makes the third major ap pointment for the Governor to 1111.

Allen, the assistant manager, who or ganized the fund, has been urged for the place for the same reason that Messrs. Wolfe and McCulloch have been talked of in conjunction with the places they now till temporarilv.

AUDIENCE WITH KAISER REGARDED GOOD OMEN [Continued From First Page.] Although no information has been given out regarding the purpose of Ambassador Gerard's journey, It is evident that Emperor William wishes a thorough personal talk with him in order to obtain a clearer view of the American position on the submarine issue. The ambassador and Secretary Grew traveled in a special saloon car attach ed to a regular train placed at their disposal. Mr. Gerard was attended by the embassy's chasseur. The train will reach its destination at 7 p. m. to morrow (Friday) and Ambassador Gerard expects to return on Satur day. The invitation to visit the German headquarters was brought to the am bassador personally by Foreign Min ister Von Jagow. The invitation is regarded in fin ancial circles asia good omen. Never theless, experienced observers consid er flie situation still very serious and believe that the mere fact of the am bassador's meeting with the Emperor and his advisers is of less importance than what was done at the conference at German headquarters. The ulti mate decision at Washington is held to be quite incalculable until it is known how far Germany meets American wishes. The news that Ambassador Gerard was going to the headquarters was already known nt noon to-day, but the censors for some mysterious reason refused to allow cablegrams to be sent announcing that fact until to-night; just as they had refused to pass dispatches with news that the American note had been handed to the foreign office, until the next day.

Beautify Schoolhouse Grounds at Paxtang Paxtang, Pa., April 28.—Children in the borough schools are beautifying tho grounds about their building by planting trees, shrubbery and flowers. Prior to the planting a program was carried out in one of the schoolrooms and the singing of the children was one of the features. Sheldon W. Funk, of Boyertown, one of the farm advisers of the State Department of Agricul ture, talked on plants and flowers and at the conclusion of the program ho showed the children how to plant the flowers and shrubs. His talk and sug gestions offered during the planting proved quite valuable to the young sters. Quite a number of visitors were attracted to the school and they took a lively interest in the affair. Around the school building forty pieces of shrubbery were planted and they were the gifts of W. E. Seel and Arthur H. Bailey, of Paxtang, and the Berryhill Nursery, of Ilarrisburg. The trees were provided by H. F. Eyster, of Paxtang, and J. F: Rolirer & Son, real estate doalers, who are much in terested in the development of the bor ough. The flowers, which were put in a bed dug by the children, were pur chased by the teachers with the money given them by me scholars. Because of the poor condition of some of the soil it was necessary to get some top soil, and this was donated by Josh E. Rutherford and James Reichley. The school board provided the necessary funds to pay for the digging and spreading of the top soil. 15
