State Chief of Mines, the Attor ney General's department in an opinion handed down to-day decides that the net of June 9. 1911, requiring that in bituminous mines where coal is blasted from the solid, all holes must be fired when the workmen are out of the mines, applies to all bituminous mines.

MADE IN FIVE SIZES C.E.Bair&Sons,Harrisburg,Pa.,Makers * TUESDAY EVENING, NEWS OF STEELTON COMPLETE PLANS FOR ROMPER DAY Supervisor Irwin Announces Final Arrangements For Playgrounds Closing I List minute arrangements for the I big romper day exercises to-morrow, which will mark the close of Steel ton's first playgrounds season, were completed this morning by Supervisor James R. Irwin and the various supervisors. On the various playgrounds the youthful athletes were busy practicing for the events in which they will com pete to-morrow. About 1,000 boys and girls from the various playgrounds are expected to be on hand to participate in and to see the various events. Romper Day in the borough marks the close of the season's activities on the various playgrounds which were opened June 19, under the auspices of the Steelton Parks and Playgrounds Commission, then but recently ap pointed.

LAST SLABS ON DAM BY FRIDAY [Continued From First Page] For more mart a week the rlvermen headed by Lewis Gibbons, foreman, have been busily setting the slabs in place. Working with him are Elmer Beck, James J. McGoman. Elmer Fox George Wetzel, Harry Glass and Ed. Primrose. The job has been anything but easy as most of the blocks —pre- pared in seven to 10-foot lengths be fore last winter set in—had been piled in the deep water below the parapet of the dam. Ninety or more of them had to be lifted from the river bed by a derrick, mounted on a flat and swung into place, which doesn't sound at all difficult, the rlvermen declare— until you try to work in a swift stream on the very edge of the breast of the dam over the roaring maelstrom of heaving waters below. How fierce is the rush of water and how quietly but steadily the dam "pulls" was illustrated the other day, the rlvermen say, by William Beard of Dock street. In the whole First ward, the rivermen will tell you, there is no truer "water-dog" than "Bill" Beard. But "Bill" tried to balance himself too long on the edge of the dam when the swirling waters swung him into the racing sluice, drew him under, threshed his body about on the rocks and then pushed him half unconscious to the surface where chums rescued him. The filling in of the gap on the dam is having a perceptible effect on the height of the stream,the workmen say; thus far there is a noticeable increase of at least four inches. And this, swimming experts say, is just enough to permit easy swimming at the pres ent stage of the river in the courses laid out for the Kipona events. THREE CREAMERIES UNDER MILK SHIPPING BAN Three creamery managers were given orders yesterday by City Health Officer J. M. J. Raunick, prohibiting them from shipping.milk or cream into the city because of dirty and unsani tary conditions existing on the prem ises. One new case of typhoid fever was reported to-day and Dr. Raunick said that although he could not state positively, he is almost positive that infected ice cream caused the spread of the disease. Two probable cases were admitted to the Harrisburg hospital to-day. The victims are Albert White, aged 19, col ored, 74 Locust Row, Steelton, anil Louis Charles, 304 Harris street, an employe in a downtown restaurant.

LET THEM STRIKE SAYS McCALEB [Continued From First Page] would have to come from Philadel phia. While the local officials are still silent on preparedness plans, all sorts of rumors are afloat regarding orders that will come with the announcement that the strike is on. It is said, that every man employed by the Pennsyl vania Railroad in Harrisburg and vi cinity will be governed by sealed orders, to be sent to the heads of the various departments by Saturday. That there will be no Saturday shut down until further orders, even the clerks in the various offices to remain on duty over Sunday. The employes will not discuss the strike situation. Some who do not figure in the wage controversy, includ ing signal men, shopmen and round house employes, are of the opinion that there will be no strike. Every body appears to be waiting for in structions from the men higher up. An Altoona dispatch says: Preparations for the strike of the brotherhood men have virtually been completed by the Pennsylvania Rail road. Every available space in the big shops here has been equipped to feed and lodge the men who will be em ployed as strikebreakers and the shop men who will be needed as guards. Truckload after truckload of grpcerles, dishes, stoves, beds, bedding, cots, etc., have been delivered at the shops by local dealers. Even second hand stores were stripped of such goods as the company required. "Let them strike; we are ready with a capital R," declared Noel W. Smith, superintendent of the Middle Division. In the event of a break between the brotherhoods and railroads the Penn sylvania Railroad shopmen will re main on the company's property, in compliance with a paper signpd last week by more than ten thousand of them, agreeing to work for the com pany and protect company property. It is to accommodate these men that the officials have converted certain portions of the shops into dining rooms and sleeping quarters. Class Teacher's Perfect Recrd For 24 Years at.. flj^BHi' T.

STROUSE VIP ZEIL FUNERAL TO BE HELD ON THURSDAY [Continued From First Page] will be made in Mount Calvary Ceme te*y. A detail of police will also at tepd the funeral to represent the de partment. In honor of the executive, orders were issued this morning at headquar ters that the members of the police force shall wear a small black bow of ribbon over their badges.as a token of respect. Resolutions of regret will probably be passed late to-day by the officers. This is the second death of a mem ber of the department since the pres ent administration began. Several months ago Patrolman Lewis C. Hippie was murdered while on duty. Died Under Knife The polica executive died at 10:20 o'clock last night at the hospital while undergoing an operation for acute in testinal obstruction, which had de veloped from peritonitis. His death occurred just 14 hours after he was admitted. He was stricken Sunday, but even then the seriousness of his condition was not generally known. Expressions of regret were heard all over the city to-day at the sud den death. Those present when the chief died were Drs. G. L. Laverty, George B. Kunkel, Park A. Deckard and Mayor Meals. The chief had refused to undergo an operation when first brought to the hospital, and almost to the last re quested Mayor Meals to keep him from the knife, but surgeons declared it was his only chance to live. Serving Second Term The official was serving his second term as police chief, both of which were under Mayor Meals. In 1908 he was appointed to the lieutenancy and served about a year and a half. When Thomas G. George resigned as chief of police, Zeil was appointed as his successor. He was appointed by Coun cil for the second time when Mayor Meals went into office at the beginning of the year. His ability to handle traffic prob lems was one of the features of both terms. When the new system now in use in the city was being decided upon Chief Zeil was one of the big factors with the Mayor and Captain of Police J. P. Thompson, in overcoming the difficulties in handling street traffic efficiently. Insisted oil Traffic Rules He served on the traffitf commit tee of the International Association of Police Chiefs, which convened in Wll liamsport this Spring. During his term in office he advocated a number of changes in traffic systems, and in sisted that his officers enforce all traffic ordinances. His method of dealing with drunks who were not disorderly in the streets was a unique one. He established the plan of "safe keeping," which meant that the individual was either permit ted to sober up or taken to his home. He remembered faces and names well, and usually could recall whether any one under arrest had ever been brought in before for an offense, while he was in office. J. Thomas Zeil was born December 28, 1859, in the house where his father conducted a tailor shop opposite the Bolton House in Second street. Ho was educated in the public schools and when 20 years old started in the haberdashery business with his broUier Herman, at 228 Market street. In 1889 he sold out and became a salesman for the Capital City Cigar Company and later for a York cigar company. He served on the police force from 1908 until the expiration, of Mayor Meals' term of office, then entering the em ployment of John G. Wall, Sixth and Cumberland streets. In January he again assumed charge at police head quarters and remained in active duty until Saturday. Windsor Now in Charge Survivors are his wife, Mrs. Mary E. Zeil; a son, William F. Zeil, and a daughter, Mary, and one grand child, William, Jr. Within half an hour of his death, members of the day police force began telephoning for information while many others called at headquarters. More than a score of his friends had gathered at midnight and discussed the sudden death of the executive and his many acts of kindness while in office. Superintendent of Detectives William Windsor, Jr.. will become act ing chief of police until a successor' is named. MRS. E. E. BROWN* Mrs. E. E. Brown, aged 81, widow of the late C. M.
