Role of Honor Pensioner Has Excellent Service Record In its monthly bulletin the Penn sylvania Railroad refers to the retire ment of Jacob Snyder, of Harrisburg, who was placed on the roll of honor one month ago. He served fifty-one years and six months. The bulletin says: "Jacob Snyder, who was placed on the roll of honor May 1, was born In Berks county on April 8, 184 6. He left school to take part In the Civil War, enlisting in Company D, One Hundred and Fifty-flrst Pennsylvania Volun teers, on October 7, 1862, when he was only 16 years old.

Nothing has been announced officially. The major ity of the railroaders expressed a hope that reports are true. A dispatch from New York says: "A clash between representatives of the railroads of the United States and the "Big Four" brotherhoods, in ses sion here to discuss the new schedules demanded by the railway employes, came near breaking: up the conference. It resulted over a discussion whether the western schedule adopted 18 months ago should be used as a basis In making; up the new schedule, the brotherhood men contending that it should. "After a discussion the managers gave in on the point raised, and the conference continued. "A compromise is the railroad's view of the way the differences between ! them and their 350,000 employes should be settled. Tills was hinted at yes terday's session of the conference of railroad and union representatives, when, on the completion of the presen tation of the men's case, the railroads defined their position. Ellslia lift Talks Speaking for the railroads, Ellsha Lee, of the Pennsylvania railroad, chairman of the conference, said: 'The present schedule of pay and conditions are the lowest possible rate: your pro position is the high level. Now between those two levels this thing is b tnd to be settled.' "Asked what significance they attach ed to Chairman Lee's utterances, Mr. Stone and Mr. Garretson, representing the employes, declared that it was plain the railroads were striving to effect a compromise. They said that if a compromise offer is made It would be put to a vote of the employes. In the event of the offer being voted down, Mr. Garretson explained, it will then be incumbent on the brotherhoods to vote on a general strike."

Rumor* \aine Pntton.— As yet no in timation has come from the executive chamber as to whom the Governor will appoint to succeed the late Robert Cunningham as superintendent of the Highway Department. A number of men have been suggested as being probable appointees and to-day there were rumors that Charles E. Patton, at present Secretary of Agriculture, would be pleasing in some quarters. Mr. Pat ton, It is pointed out, is making the agricultural department most efficient and effective. He is a member of one of the old families of Central Pennsyl vania and a road and' railroad con tractor of large experience. It is this experience that has given rise to the reports of his possible selection. I'ronreution* Ordered. The Dairy and Food Bureau of the Department of Agriculture has ordered seven prose cutions in Philadelphia of soda water dispensaries where soft drinks were sold that contained flavors of artilieial fruit concoctions and colors. Antes For Alternates.—The office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth has been kept busy recording the votes for delegates and alternates. Judging from the length of the sheets, practi cally everybody in Pennsylvania re ceived at least one vote for alternate and some as high as seven or eight.

Dunkle, both of the 17th district. Both were certified as delegates to the Democratic national convention, but as It turned out Fraker will go as a delegate and Dunkle squeezed through as an alternate. The mistake is un important and nothing will be done about it. Biles Honored. —George H. Biles, second deputy State Highway Commis sioner, received 'word this morning that he had been elected an honorary member of the Motor Club of Harris burg.

Hargest to-day gave it as his opinion that no penalty attaches to corporations filing reports before the last day of March without receiving from the Auditor General an extension of time.

Jordan, ex ranchman and Indian and Civil War veteran, ,now burgess of Mlddletown, quietly celebrated his seventy-first birthday yesterday. He Is one of Mid dletown's most Interesting characters on account of his varied and exciting career and was kept busy throughout the day accepting the congratulations of his many friends. Captain Jordan is a native of Dau phin county, having been born on the Motter farm, back of Highspire. While still a youth the Civil War broke out and he answered the call to the colors by enlisting in the Ninth Pennsylva nia Cavalry as a lieutenant. After serving over three stirring years, during which he had several narrow escapes from death, he was mustered out as a captain. The ex periences he had passed through would have satisfied most men, but Captain Jordan's adventurous spirit would not permit htm to settle down to the humdrum routine of ordinary life and he drifted to Texas, where he "punched cattle" and performed all the other strenuous duties of the ranch man. Life in the Lone Star State in those days was anything but tame, but the so-called "tenderfoot" thrived on it and more than held his own. After several years on tlie plains, during which he engaged in many Indian battles, he returned to Mlddletown and later moved to Chicago, where he spent several years. He again returned to Mlddletown and secured employ ment in the tube mills. Upon the abandonment of the plant he went to work In the King car works and when the latter was absorbed by the Stand ard Steel Car Company he resigned. In the Fall of 1914 he ran for burgess of Mlddletown on the Democratic ticket and was easily elected.

Member Jewelers' Co-Operative Syndicate PUBLIC SERVICE IS ROTARY KEYNOTE [Continued From First Page] said, with respect to the policy of Ro tary in Harrisburg for the next twelve months: "From time to time in our city and vicinity, there arise projects and occur events, the import of which is sufficient to warrant organized and concerted effort in order to. accomplish success for whatever it might be. Publicity is the most powerful force that acts to-day in the world of public affairs, The public wants to know. The pub lic wants to know Just exactly what facts enter into every public affair. Our Rotary club should take an active part in these affairs. Our club is not what we say it is—it is what we, who are members of it, make it. Our meetings should at all times be a for um in which to hear public affairs discussed, and with untiring vigor and zeal should we get behind such meas ures as are for the public good, and with equal force decry sinister schemes that should be made unable to stand the public limelight, at the same time taking advantage of the opportunity to broaden the general public's con cept of Rotary and our own local club. In a civic way, let's resolve to do some thing big for de&r old Harrisburg next year." "I believe that Rotary, more than any other agency, is responsible for the abundant supply of service in the world today, particularly in America and the British Isles. 'He Profits Most Who Serves Best.' Who ever heard of such a motto for business and pro fessional men prior to its coinage by Rotarian A. P. Sheldon over a decade ago. Why, so popular has become the clamor for 'service' that not only Rotarians incorporate it in their busi ness slogans, but unpatented as it is, the business world at large employs in their methods what the term im some house along the Jonestown done it all." Tho meeting was held at the home of Captain George F. Lumb. a hand home house along the Jonestown Road, which was prettily decorated with flags and Japanese lanterns. The club was seated on the lawn until rain drove the members to the porch. Dur ing the evening the new officers were inaugurated and President Arthur D. Bacon closed his administration with an address bespeaking the loyal sup port of the members for the new ad ministration. The club accepted the invitation of the Lancaster Rotary club to attend the annual dinner of that organiza tion in Lancaster on June 20 and that date falling on the regular meeting night of the Harrisburg club a change will be made to enable the members to make the trip.

Sheehy Skefflngton, editor of the Irish Citizen, Thomas Dickson «n.t Fred Mclntyre, physicians who had ex amined the defendant, testified lie was menally unstable. CHILDREN WE WORRY ABOUT Close confinement in school during the past winter, overstudy perhaps, an attack of the grip or tonsilitis, somo one of these things is doubtless respon sible for the condition of the child who shows a decline in health now. What are the symptoms? Pallor and languor, a fickle appetite, dark rings under the eyes, bronchial colds. Very often the beat efforts of the family physician fail in such cases and tho condition of the child causes the most intense anxiety. Cod-liver oil,sooftcn prescribed, generally fails because tho weak stomach is unable to digest fats. Try this treatment. Before break iast each morning give the child tho juice of half an orange. Afterthenoon meal give one of Dr. Williams' Pink Tills. Keep this up for a few days and then give one of the pills after tho evening meal also. Weigh the child before beginning tho treatment and \ again after two weeks. An increase in weight of from two to five pounds will show you that you are on the rich 1 : track at last. Care is necessary in tho diet of the patient and it will be well to send to the Dr. Williams Medicino Co.. Schenectady, N. Y., for a diet book and tho pamphlet, "building Up the Blood." Both are free. You row ri druggist sella Dr, Williams' Pink Pill*.
