YOUNG MUSICIAN STUDIES ABROAD Newell A bright Sailing Satur day For England as Pupil of Gi'cat Piano Teacher NEWELL ALBRIGHT Newell Albright, a talented young musician of this city, who is making a name for himself in musical lines, »eft this afternoon for New York and will sail from there Saturday at noon on the American liner Philadelphia for Liverpool, England. Mr. Albright will 1 spend some time in London studying with Tobias Matthay, the greatest ter.cher in the world of scientific piano technique.

PRESBYTERIANS ARE BALLOTING [Continued From First Page.] Robinson, Chicago, and the Rev. Dr. Hugh A. Walker, of Los Angeles. A successor to the late Dr. Noble, of San Francisco, the permanent clerk, was also to be chosen at to-day's sessions. Espect Plenty of Action The formal opening was delayed for nearly an hour this morning be cause of the lively discussions among groups of delegates on the outside of the meeting hall on the Steel Pier. The New York Presbytery troubles over the receiving of three students into the pulpit candidacy class who were alleged to be lacking in certain qualifications demanded by the regu lations of the assembly, and feeling that has been engendered over ef forts to elect another moderator from the East put plenty of spirit into the convention at the very start and lead ers predicted an abundance of action throughout the sessions. War Challenge to Cliurcli In his arinual sermon, Moderator Stevenson declared that the conflict in Europe was a direct challenge to the church that could not be overlooked, asserting it meant either a triumphant, fruitful revival of faith or a blighting, frightful invasion of unbelief. He an nounced that the liigliwater marlc in benevolence, additions to the church and faith had been reached by the Presbyterian church in America dur ing the past year, outstripping all previous efforts and that it was not a time to pray but to get out and work because the revival of religion is upon us. Pleails For Unity Dr. Stevenson pleaded for unity in power and established rule of right eousness rather than rivalry and com i petition. The moderator took a thrust at efforts of a few commissions and boards to interrupt the general for ward program of the assembly. The sermon and communion com pleted the morning session. There are I 28 candidates in the field for perma nent clerk of the assembly. The gathering was considered one of the most important in the history !of the church. Among the matters I to be considered are an overture from the Cincinnati Presbytery for the ex ! pulsion of the New York Presbytery on charges of ordaining to the minis try men who disclaim many of the es sentia! beliefs of the church minis terial relief and sustenation and the proposed consolidation of the college board and the board of education. The long standing controversy over ihe supervision of the expenditure of en dowment funds of the Union Semi nary, New York, will also be consid ered.

I SERVICERS SUFFRAGE PARTY'S ANNUAL MEETING Mrs. John Oenslagcr Tells of, Important Work Done Dur ing the Past Year Harrisburg's woman suffrage party j organization, formed a little more than a year ago, held its first annual session J this afternoon In the Y. W. C. A. when j an interesting report by Mrs. John Oen- j slagrer, the chairman, and enthusiastic j address by Miss Emma MacAlarney, general field secretary of the Pennsyl vania Woman's Suffrage Association, featured' the program. Mrs. Oenslager's report dealt in de tail with the history of the organiza tion from the time it was formed April 12. 1915, to date. Reference to the big public meetings, the Dr. Anna Howard Shaw lecture, the railroad shop meet ings at which Mrs. Beatrice Forbes j Robertson Hale, Miss MacAlarney and lJr. Deeter were speakers: of the visit j of the Woman's Liberty Bell and its , reception here: of the opening of the > committee headquarters May 4: of the I window displays, booths, the suffragist float that attracted such widespread attention during the river carnival last Fall; the swinging of a great electric | sign across Market Square; and of the raising by subscriptions, cake sales, etc., of $1,011.63 for the cause. "It Is to be regretted," concludes the report, "that the suffrage work had not developed to the point of obtaining workers at the polls on election day." AMBULANCE IS GREAT NEED HERE [Continued From First I'ago.] taken to and from the hospital in the city vehicle according to the orders, but no persons will be hauled to or from private hospitals, or to the city hospital if they are able to pay. City officers who are on ambulance duty have been instructed in all cases to learn before taking the patient whether or not the party is able to pay, and if so to refuse to take them, except In accident cases. Superintendent Condon agrees heartily with the plan of Mayor Meals, and said that if the hospital had its own ambulance, funs turned in from patients able to pay for its use would In all probability provide for the main tenance of the car. The hospital superintendent quoted figures of the expenses and receipts from this source in other hospitals and in one instance more than SSO were cleared each month, from the use of the ambulance. He also gave In stances o fother cities much smaller in size in comparison with Harrisburg, having up-to-date ambulances for the | public hospitals, and In a number of j cases, being operated without a cent of additional expense to the institu tion. In many of these cities, also the hos pitals are not so large as the local one and the number of patients cared ' for each year much less than here. Progress in All Branches Shown by General Assembly By Associated Press Orlando, Fla„ May 18.—The Gen eral Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States met here to-day. Reports of permanent com mittees show progress in all branches of endeavor. In home missions more was accom plished last year than ever before, 19 new missionaries were sent to foreign fields and the Department of Christian Education and Ministerial Relief. The Home Mission committee report pointed out that the end of the Euro pean war would see a flood of immi gration to this country and the com mittee requeued more men and money to meet its responsibilities. May Join Missionary Work of the Baptists By Associated Press Minneapolis, Minn., May 18.—Con sideration of the report of the effi ciency committee on the proposal to merge the missionary work of the American Baptist Publication Society and the American Baptist Home Mis sion Society is the principal business before the Northern Baptist conven tion to-day. The committee report recommended that inasmuch as a large sum of money Is needlessly expended each year by two major societies of the church cov ering the same ground, all missionary ; work should be directed by a single j body. Despite the threats of opponents of! the proposal that the publication so ciety will secede if the amalgamation is voted, the convention is expected to push the issue to a final test. MAY MERGE CHURCHES By Associated Press Minneapolis, Minn., May 18. —The proposed merger of all Norwegian Lutheran churches in America is ex pected to come up for final action to day at a special meeting of the Nor wegian Lutheran Synod.

The foregoing figures include all of the Philadelphia and most of Alle gheny county. Districts in Doubt No definite information could be ob tained this afternoon regarding the result in the Seventeenth district, com posed of Perry, Juniata. Mifflin, Union, Snyder, Franklin, Fulton and Hunt ingdon counties, but Brumbaugh peo ple were not inclined to be hopeful. The Penrose people openly claimed it. Penrose men gave the Governor only one in the York-Adams district and declared that he would have but one in the Bedford-Blair-Cambria dis trict, but the Brumbaugh men said that both Stouch and Tobias were pledged. Both sides are claiming the North umberland county district and unin structed delegates were elected In Schuylkill, Berks-Lehigh and in the Dauphin - Cumberland - Lebanon trlct. Secretary of Agriculture Patton was complimented on landing one delegate in the fact of a hard fight in the 21st. Ex-Senator John S. Fisher'landed in the 27th. He is uninstructed. Snyder On Ticket Twice Not only has Senator Charles A. Snyder apparently won the Republican nomination for Auditor General, but he is also nominee for State Senator in Schuylkill county. Ex-Senator Frank E. Baldwin, of Potter county, appears to be doing very well in his contest for Republican nomination again. Edward E. Jones, chairman of the roads committee in the last four House.-i of Representatives and known as "Good Roads" Jones, is the Repub lican nominee for the State Senate in his district. Word came to-day that he had defeated Senator Charles E. Mills, of Bradford county. Jones car ried Susquehanna, his home county, by 800. Dispatch from Washington states Congressman Griest. and his colleague of the Lancaster district will vote at. Chicago first for Governor Brumbaugh and then for Justice Hughes. The some dispatch says: "Justice Hughes' position was strengthened to-day by a dispatch from ex-Governor Herbert S. Hadley. of Missouri, a strong Roose velt man, saying that he proposes to vote for Hughes. Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts. has informed his friends of his belief that it would be a mistake for the Republicans to defeat Hughes. Ex-Senator Crane, who is one of the big four delegates from Massachusetts, is also quoted as for Hughes." „ , , , T. Larry Eyre, former Superintend ent of Public Grounds and Buildings, is the Republican nominee for State Senator in the Chester district. Ex-Insurance Commissioner Charles Johnson, who resigned at the begin : ning of the factional fray, carried | Montgomery county for the Penrose | slate. , John M. Rose, a former mayor of I Johnstown and ex-member of the House, is the successful Republican | candidate for Congress in the Blair- Bedford-Cambria district. Perhaps the greatest of all the sur prises in the latest returns is the receding Penrose lead in Alleghany county, where the Governor is close up to the Senator.
