SNEAK THIEVES
STILL AT WORK
Second-Story Man Attempts to
Rob House in Mueneh
Street
The robber or robbers who have
been terrorizing Harrlsburg's residents
by early morning visits appeared in
the West End again early to-day.
After raids in No*-th Second street
homes and on Allison Hill, this morn
ing the thief visited the home of W. F.
Gotwalt, 201 Muench street. Warren
Gotwalt, son of Mr. Gotwalt, heard
the man on the balcony trying to force
open the door. He turned on the
light, and the would-be burglar drop
ped to the yard and fled.
The police were called and In less
than five minutes a patrol full of offi
cers appeared, but too late to capture
the intruder. Neighbors said they
saw the man but thought It was a
member of the Gotwalt family,
"ioung Mr. Gotwalt has just returned
from Philadelphia, where he under
went an operation for appendicitis.
The description given of the man to
the police department corresponds
with that of the midnight visitor in
the other homes. So far the detective
bureau has been unable to get results
from any clues. Monday afternoon
according to Superintendent W. L.
Windsor, the bureau scoured the Is
lands In the river for a few miles to
run down a "tip" which proved value
less. Yesterday he changed his mode
of travel and with Motorcycle Officer
Hylan as chaufTeur, sent his men in
the old police patroi to the suburbs
out Paxtang way." This trip, also
proved futile. So far the thief is un
caught and the department is still
working on clues. Residents of the
u mean tlme are wondering
when the burglars will be arrested,
and when they will be able to go to
bed without the fear of awakening
J?. a man *i»nsaeklng the house.
Chief of Police J. T. Zell said this
morning that when citizens petition
Council to act and provide better po
lice protection for the city, he will be
able to furnish the commissioners a
complete and minute report of how
the territory is patroled at night and
day, and the duties and districts of
each officer, at the present time.
Chief Zeil then said that although
he had a number of suggestions in
view he would wait until Council
?5* e , an< * then present his statement,
if it is called for.
This will be an appeal for more pa
trolmen as at present the districts are
extremely larg# and the entire force,
including officials and men numbers
only 65. Five vacancies exist.
t* l6 c ' ty Population at
85 000, according: to Chief Zell, and
using the ratio of other cities similar
in size, Harrisburg should have one
patrolman for each 1,000 citizens.
Police officials in other cities in the
State have remarked about the im
portance of protection for Harrisburg,
as it is the central point for railroad
sevice north, east, south and west in
the State, and consequently criminals
in escaping usually pass through here.
In order to properly protect the thou
sands of residents a much larger force
4s needed, they believe.
FIREMEN WANT
PARKING RULE

GOT WRONG AUTO
A man who had been sent to the
Pennsylvania Railroad station to take
an automobile to a garage climbed, by
mistake, into the automobile owned by
John P, Melick, 509 North Second
street, prominent in banking and busi
ness circles of the city, and drove off.
Mr. Melick with his son. Joseph and
the latter's wife, had just begun their
dinner at the station restaurant, when
they saw the man take the car. The
police were notified that It had been
stolen, but the mistake was explained
later and the car returned.
CHILDREN WE WORRY ABOUT
Close Confinement in school during
the past winter, overstudy perhaps, an
attack of the grip or tonsiliti3, some
one of these things is doubtless respon
sible for the condition of the child who
shows a decline in health now.
What are the nymptoms? Pallor and
languor, a fickle appetite, dark ringa
under the eyes, bronchial colds. Very
often the best efforts of the family
physician fail in such cases and the
condition of the child causes the most
intense anxiety. Cod-liver oil, so often
prescribed, generally fails because the
weak stomach is unable to digest fats.
Try this treatment. Before break
iast each morning give the child the
juice of half an orange. Afterthenoon
meal give one of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills. Keep this up for a few days and
then give one of the pills after the
evening meal also. Weigh the child
before beginning the treatment and
again after two weeks. An increase in
weight of from two to five pounds will
show you that you are on the right
track at last. Care is necessary in the
diet of the patient and it will be well '
to send to the Dr. Williams Medicine
Co., Schenectady, N. Y., for a diet ;
book and the pamphlet, "Building Up
the Blood." Both are free. Yourown !
