in Harrisburg to prove it in almost
every case.
First heat Wonderoll, then rub In
gently and bind up with flannel. It
never Just drives pain from one spot
to another, but draws It right out of
the body.
Wonderoll Is a physician's prescrip
tion and has been In successful use for
*er 50 years. It is pure and antl
tTfctlc. It never blisters and is pleas

HARRISBURG MAY
LAND FARM BANK
City's Location in Midst of
Agriculture District Big Fac
tor Under New Act
Harrisburg has been suggested as
a desirable city for the location of a
farm bank under the new Federal
Farm Loan Act. Lancaster and
Williamsport have also been men
tioned. Philadelphia bankers are
making a strong effort to obtain a
land bank. Dut in view of the fact
that Philadelphia already has a Fed
eral Reserve bank, Harrisburg's
chances are said to t>e good.
If a farra bank is located in Har
risburg,_ it would be in the second
district,' which includes Xew York.
Pennsylvania, Xew Jersey and Dela
ware. It is said, that located within
easy reach of the agriculture dis
tricts of the several States mentioned,
Harrisburg offers strong inducements
for a farm bank. Asked whether the
Harrisburg Chamber of Commerce
had taken any action in this matter.
Secretary E. L. McColgin to-day said:
"This subject has never been form
ally considered by our directors. We
are chiefly governed In Xational busi
ness legislation by referenda of the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States of America the Xational
Chamber."
What Act Provides
An outline of the Farm Loan Act
follows:
Provides for creation of 12 Federal
land banks and permits establishment
of joint-stock land banks for the mak
ing of loans at reasonable interest for
long periods on farmlands.
Federal Farm Loan Board has con
trol over banks.
Federal land banks empowered to
lend on" first mortgages on farmlands
in amounts of SIOO to SIO,OOO.
Xo loan may be made for more than
50 per cent, of the value of the land
mortgaged and 20 per cent, of the
value of the insured improvements.
Xational Farm Loan Associations
local organizations composed exclu
sively of borrowers—are authorized.
These associations must be stockhold
ers in the land banks in proportion to
the amount their members wish to
borrow.
Reasonable interest rate establish
ed. Federal land banks are prohibit
ed from charging more than 6 per
*ent.
w .-Borrowers will share in profits of
the bank.
Mortgages allowed for periods of
from 5 to 40 years.
Small annual or semiannual pay
ments on principal a required feature.

XO ROBBERY HERE
Detectives Shuler and Speese were
called to 1550 Vernon street last night
to l«-ok up a robbery. Xo trace of a

charge of felonious assault. Alder
man James Deshong heard the case

at SBOO. Johnson tried to slash

Thin Folks Who
Want to Get Fat
Increase In Weight Ten Pounds or More
I'd certainly give most anything to
be able to fat up a few pounds and stay
that way, ' declares every excessively
thin man or woman. Such a result is
not impossible, despite pa»t failures
Most thin people are victims of mal
nutrition, a condition which prevents
the fatty elements of food from being
taken up by the blood as thev are. when
the powers or nutrition are normal In
stead - * getting into the blood, much
r.f the fat and flesh producing elements
ttay in the intestines until they pass
from the body as waste
To correct this condition and to pro
duce a healthy, normal, amount of fat
the nutritive processes must be arti
ficially supplied with the power which
nature has denied them. This can proo
ably best be accomplished by eating a
Sjrgol tablet with every meal. Sargol
Jk a careful combination of six splen
did assimilative agenu. Taken with
meals they mix with the food to turn
the sugars and starches of what you
have eaten into rich, ripe nourishment
for the tissues and blood and its rapid
effect has been in many cases reported
remarkable. Reported gains of from
ten to twenty-five pounds in a single
month are by no means infrequent. Yet
its action is perfectly natural and ab
solutely harmless. Sargol is sold by G
A. Gorgas and other druggists every
where and every package contains a
guarantee of weight increase or money
back.
NOTE:—Sargol is recommended only
as a flesh builder and while excellent
results in cases of nervous indigestion,
etc.. have been reported, caro should be
taken about using it unless a gain of
;vr«iffbt is decired.—Advertisement.
TUESDAY EVENING,
HARRIS BURG CAVALRYMEN NOW
AT CAMP THOMAS J. STEWART
Governor's Troop, Now Troop C, First Pennsylvania Cavalry,
Stationed Near Fort Bliss, Eight Miles From El Paso
A letter received here yesterday from Captain George C. Jack, com
mander of Troop C, First Pennsylvania Cavalry. U. 8. X. G. Harrisburg'*
Governor's Troop, says all of the officers and men of the troop are well
and enjoyed the trip to the Southern border, barring the intense heat
;in the cars at times on the trip down. The only incident on the trip, out
side of the pleasant stops at towns where the men went swimming and were
entertained in the heartiest way by the citizens, was a fire that broke out
in the troop kitchen car when about a day's ride from El Paso. The flames
were extinguished after a part of the floor of the car was burned.
The First Cavalry, of which the troop is a part, is located at "Camp
Thomas J. Stewart." on the Amalgordo road, eight miles from El Paso,
three miles north of Fort Bliss, on a dusty prairie, where it is very warm
and dry.
It is said to be the intention, under an order from Washington, to or
ganize in the cavalry regiment a supply troop, a headquarters troop and a
machine gun troop. If this is done, there would be another chance for a
number of Harrisburg applicants, whose names were placed on an extra
list when the troop's roster was filled before leaving home, to gain admis
sion to Captain Jack's command.
Since arriving at Camp Stewart the members of the troop have been
given their second innoculation for typhoid fever and the third will follow
iin about ten days. There is not much work to do just at present outside
of the regular twenty-four hours guard duty. Horses have not yet been
received, but are expected in a few days, when the troopers will again feel
like real cavalrymen.
Captain Jack says that when the troop arrived at El Paso they found
two days' bundles of the Harrisburg Telegraph, which is being sent to the
Harrisburg soldiers daily so long as they are in the field, with the com
j pliments of E. J. Stackpole. president of the Telegraph Printing Company.
Captain Jack says the men greatly appreciate the courtesy and that the
papers are thoroughly enjoyed by all.
A complete roster of the three officers and 97 enlisted men, with their
home addresses, as it stood July 6. 19X6, follows:

Casement's Appeal From
Death Is Dismissed;
Will Try For Reprieve
London, July 18. Without hear
ing the attorneys for the crown, the
Court of Criminal Appeal to-day dis
missed Sir Roger Casement's appeal
from the verdict of the lower court
which found him guilty of treason,
for which Viscount Heading, the lord
chief justice sentenced him to death.
For a day and a half Alexander
Sullivan. Sir Roger's counsel, argued
before the court, quoting many au
thorities in favor of his contention
that the offense of treason depended
upon whether the acused dwelt under
the protection of the king and the
crime could not be committed with
out the realm. He abandoned his other
ponts in regard to the lord chief jus
tice's definition 6f the offense. As
soon as Mr. Sullivan had concluded
his argument the court retired to con
sider whether the attorneys for the
crown would be called on to reply It
soon decided to the contrary, which
indicated that the appeal had gone
against Sir Roger, who was present
during the argument and when, judg
ment was given.
A further appeal to the House of
Lords is possible, only if the attorney
general gives a certificate that the de
cision of the court of criminal appeal
involves a point of law so exceptionally
important that it is desirable in the
public interest that a still higher
court should deal with It. This has
been done only twice since the Court
of Crimnal Appeal was established
eifht years ago.
Working For Reprieve
Justice Darling in delivering the
judgment, expressed the indebtedness
of tbe cour tto Mr. Sullivan for his
well considered and well delivered
arguments as to justice characterized
them, adding that they were worthy
of the best traditons of the king's
courts, but he declared that'they had
been answered by the attorneys of the
crown at the first trial.
Attorney Michael Francis Doyle, of
Philadelphia, of counsel for Sir
Roger, expressed the opinion to-day
that it was improbable the attorney
general would certify the case for ap
peal to the House of Lords, as the ap
peal court did not consider it neces
sary to hear argument for the govern
ment.
Powerful influences are working for
a reprieve, said the attorney, and
there were strong hopes of one being
