TISZA WEATHERS STORM
Budapest, Sept 5, via Berlin, Sept.
6.—An attempt at to-day's session of
the Hungarian Parliament by the op
position party to shake Premier Tisza's
position, failed in spite of the extremes
to which the opponents of the gov
ernment resorted. When the session
■was over Count Tisza had weathered
successfully one of the most violent at
tacks ever made on his administra
tion.
If Thin Or Wrinkled
Try This
Many women of fashion and refine
ment In this country, as in Europe,
seem to have recently discovered that
there is nothing quite so good to re
move wrinkles and till out hollows in
face or n"'k as ordinary
cocoa cream. It is so easy to get a lit
■ tle from any druggist and apply this
■at night wherever there are wrinkles
■or hollows in face or neck that no wo-
Iman should suffer embarrassment be
■cause she is thin or wrinkled. You
■simply apply it with the finger tips, and
Bit Is so pleasant to use and is so quick
ly absorbed that results are almost im
kinediate. Nothing else is required and
I there is no hurt or injury to the skin.
I On the contrary it is positively bene
' ficlal to the complexion, feeding and
stimulating the tissues so that the face
L becomes nice and plump and the
I wrinkles disappear. You can not help
I but wonder at its nourishing and heau
[ tifying action upon the skin. Many
| complexion ills such as rough, blotchy
I skin can also be quickly overcome by
■its use. but it has found particular favor
■in the elite Beauty Parlors for remov
■ng wrinkles and filling out the hollows
■n face and neck.—Advertisement.
Eor Catarrhal Deafness
and Head Noises
Here in America there is much sufter
-5 from catarrh and head noises,
nerican people would do well to con
ler the method employed by the Eng
h to combat this insidious disease,
'eryone knows how damp the English
cnmate is and how dampness affects
those suffering from catarrh. In Eng
land they treat catarrhal deaffness ana
head noises as a constitutional disease
and use an internal remedy for it that
is really very efficacious.
Sufferers who could scarcely hear a
watch tick tell how they had their hear
ing restored by this English treatment
to such an extent that the tick of a
watch was plainly audible seven and
eight inches away from either ear.
Therefore, if you know someone who
is troubled with catarrh, catarrhal
deafness or head noises, cut out this
formula and hand it to them and you
will have been the means of saving
some poor sufferer perhaps from total
deafness. The prescription can be eas
ily prepared at home for about 75c and
is made as follows:
From your druir°-ist obtain 1 oz. of
Parmint (Double Strength), about 75c
worth. Take this home, and add to it
H pint of hot water and 4 ounces of
Igranulated sugar; stir until dissolved.
|Take a tablespoonful four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not only
'to reduce by tonic action the inflamma
tion and swelling in the Eustachian
Tubes, and thus to equalize the air
pressure on the drum, but to correct
anv excess of secretions in the middle
ear, and the results it gives are usually
remarkably quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in any
form should give this recipe a trial and
free themselves from this destructive
disease. —Advertisement.

"Hundreds of people in this vicinity,"
says Peterson, "know of the mighty

Now I want to say to every sufferer

cent box of PETERSON S OINTMENT
will rid you of piles or your druggist
will return your money.
"For years I suffered terribly with
itching and bleeding piles. I tried
everything and despaired of ever get

Xe« York"* sensational drama, en
titled "Lost In New YorK, '
Is eald to be replete with intense heart
interest, thrilling situations, laughable
and stirring climaxes, and rapid action
from Its very beginning to the final
curtain fall. There are several highly
realistic and sensational scenes. In the
distance you see the big city of New
York, brilliantly illuminated, showing
the Woolworth Building, the Metropoli
tan Life and other towerir.g structures.
Central Park Concourse, with itß beau
tiful landscapes, and other handsome
stage settings.
There have been musical plays with
scenes laid in Russia, and there have
been musical plays with
"Katlnka" scenes laid in Turkey, anu
there have been musical
plays with scenes laid in Vienna, bui
it has been reserved for "Katlnka, ,
which Arthur Hammerstein will present
at the Orpheum next Wednesday, mati
nee and night, to combine these thret,
widely separated and distinct localities
into a single evening's entertainment.
Otto Hauerbach. who wrote the play,
has led his characters from a wedding
feast in Yalta. Russia, to the streets
of Old Stamboul, Turkey, and thence to
a brilliant cafe in Vienna. Rudolf
Friml, It is said, has exercised the same
care in the composition of the music,
and familiar strains of each locality
have been woven into the various com
positions as themes.
The story of a woitan's unsuccessful
attempt to wreck her husband's work
because of her love of
Clco Hidgley gain, is the background
at the of the domestic strife
Regent Today of real men and women
that Is found in "The
Selfish Woman," in which Wallace Reia
and Cleo Ridgley are starred, shown at
the Regent for the last time to-day.
The story tells of the adventures of
a young civil engineer, son of a wealthy
and unscrupulous banker, and the beau
tiful daughter of a money-mad society
woman, and how the girl marries the
engineer for his money, only to have
him disowned by his father, who wrecks
his son's career. It is all presented in
a series of unusual scenes and gripping
situations, which must necessarily be
seen to be appreciated.
Charlie Chaplin, in "The Count." will
be shown to-morrow and Saturday. The
comedian returns to the type of motion
picture farce in which he gained hu
fame, and is seen in his familiar baggy
trousers, cutaway coat, dinky derby,
diminutive mustache, slender can and
the brogans.
The management takes pleasure i«
announcing the engagement of Stephen
O'Rourke and James

Glldeu at popular teams of per-
Majestle formers in vaudeville,
at the Majestic Theater
the last half of this week. This duo ap
peared at the above-named theater last
season and scored a hit at every per
formance. A comedy sketch, presented
by Woolf and Stewart, and entitled "In
Two Flats," is also on the bill. There
is a novel stage setting, and the act l»
w»ll presented. Other acts on the bill
are the Aki Japs, who offer a very good
Illusion act; Fagg and White, blackface
entertainers, and the Morton Jewell
Trio, in a juggline. acrobatic and sing
ing act.
The fifth episode of Bathe's newest
serial, 'The Grip of Evil," which is
showing at the Colonial
"The Grip for the last times to-day,
of Evil" nt is entitled "The Way of a
the Colonial Woman." A powerful
two-reel drama, that
tells of a girl who takes the easiest
way, and adds another chapter to thi»
great serial story. On tl' i same pro
gram is a new five-reel F< . production,
"The Man From Bitter Roots," which
features William Farnum. It is a strong
Western drama. Just suited to such a
powerful character actor as Mr. Far
num.
Friday and Saturday- the Triangle
Ince Company presents H. B. Warner
and Enid Markey in "Shell 43," a new
five-reel feature that has to do with a
spy in the European war posing as an
American correspondent. The puzzle of
the play is, which side is he spying for?
And it Is not solved until the tragic
finish of the story. An old favorite in a
new vehicle will be the added attrac
tion on the program, when Ford Sterl

IS AGAIN USED
[Continued From Kditorial Page]
or swimming-, and in dry seasons the
water was too shallow for either. At
every street intersection with the river
and creek, a sewer discharged, the
effluent from which was carried along
the whole length of the city, so that
in dry weather, living on, or even
walking along, the banks was most un
pleasant. Malaria was rampant. Resi
dents in the vicinity dumped ashes,
paper, and even garbage, over the
banks.
"Paxton creek passes for two miles
through the city, above which for two
miles more its course is in a mosquito
breeding swamp. Its banks were per
iodically flooded, considerably damag
ing certain low sections of the town.
In the dry season its flow was largely
sewage, its banks were vile, and it was
a locality to be shunned.
"The Civic club of Harrisburg, com
posed of its most public-spirited citi
zens, both men and women, gave
much thought to the matter from the
beginning. The interest of the whole
community was aroused, and in 1902
a bond issue of $1,090,000 was au
thorized by the city. The services of
a consulting engineer of International
reputation and of a prominent land
scape architect were engaged, and a
plan was adopted covering the great
improvements that have since been
carried out.
"The brush-lined, irregular, filth
covered channel of Paxton festered,
has been excavated to an even grade
and smooth lines and faced with con
crete. It is now a smooth-flowing
stream in a clean and attractive chan
nel in which floods are unknown.
Our Front Steps
"The last thing in the scheme of
municipal improvement was the build
ing of a concrete wall, ten feet high.

in the form of steps, along the low
water river line, for two and a half
miles, with a fourteen-foot concrete
walk at the top level. The bank above
has been carefully graded and planted
with shrubs and vines. The construc
tions of this permanent bank at a cost
of about $200,000 is not only a needed
protection to the river front, but is a
much appreciated addition to its at
tractiveness. The walk is much used
by pedestrians and from it one gets
an unobstructed view of the sun set
ting across the mile-wide island-dot
ted river, with its background of
wooded hills. The steps aTe used in go
ins to and from rowboats and canoes.
•'During all this time, the city was
acquiring, by gift and purchase, the
land between the river and the west
side of the street paralleling the shore,
and converting it into a beautiful park.
The last stretch of three blocks is
now being condemned and purchased
and the houses will be removed. This
will give complete municipal owner
ship of the entire three-miles of riv
er front, all converted into parkway
bordering the river boulevard.
"The financial cost of this whole
work, including sewers, filters, stor
age reservoir, improved creek channel
and river wall, and including remodel
ing much of the street sewer system,
a great concrete viaduct and other
minor works, engineering and admin
istration, has been about S2O per
capita of the 75,000 population, and a
little over $1 a year per capita to pay
interest and sinking fund on bonds.
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
But this does not include the value of
the time and thought that have been
given to the work by the people of
Harrisburg, who may well be proud
of the result. T!ie administration of
all these works has been in the hands
of a board of public works, whose
members have been men of large af
fairs, who have giv6n their time to the
city without financial reward.
Harrisburg Transformed
"Harrisburg has been transformed
and to-day few cities in Pennsylvania,
perhaps in the whole country, have a
more attractive water side, or better
sanitary conditions in general. Of
course, this great work, the pride, not
only of the city, but of the State, was
not accomplished without a large ex
penditure of time and money and it
was all done by the city itself, without
State aid. A ctty once shunned in
summer as a typhoid, malaria-ridden
place, has become desirable for sum
mer residence, an ideal city of homes.
With its public golf course, a dozen
or more public tennis courts, numer
ous public playgrounds and nearly 1,-
000 acres of parks, it keeps its citi
zens well and happy and attracts many
from elsewhere. Furthermore, the in
crease in assessed value of city prop
erty has been so great as to permit
carrying on all governmental activ
ities and paying interest and sinking
fund charges on these improvement
bonds without increasing the city tax
rate."
How a Big League Pitcher
'Struck Out' the Fomous Cobb
"Right after Crawford comes Cobb"
is the most agitating fancy which
daunts a big league pitcher.
In Ring W. Gardner's new book of
Pusher's baseball stories. You Know
Me Al, the big left-hander, describes
his first encounter with the Georgia
peach.
"Crawford made three bases and up
come Cobb. It was the first time I
ever seen htm. He hollered at me right
off the reel. He says. You better walk
me, you busher. I says I will walk
you back to the bench. Schalk signs
for a spitter and I gives it to him and
Cobb misses.
"Then, instead of signing for an
other one, Schalk asks for a fast one,
and I shook my head no, but he signed
for it again, and yells Put something
on it. So I throwed a fast one and
Cobb hits it right over second base.
I don't know what Weaver was doing,
but he never made a move for the ball.
Crawford scored and Cobb was on first
base. First thing I knowed he had
stole second while I held the ball.
Callahan yells Wake up.out. there and
I says Why don't your catcher tell me
when they are going to steal? Schalk
says Get in there and pitch and shut
your mouth. Then I got mad and
walked Veach and Moriarity, but be
fore I walked Moriarity Cobb and
Vepch pulled a double steal on
Schalk."

Strikers Riot in Sharon
Hoop Mill; Several Hurt
By Associated Press
Sharon, Pa., Sept. 7. Two hun
dred and fifty foreign strikers of the
Sharon Steel Hoop Plant precipitated
j a near riot at the entrance to the hoop
mills here yesterday. Policeman Matt
Bobby, of the Farrell police force, sus
tained a severe gash over the right
eye when struck by a brick thrown
at him. Mike Rekovich, said to have
been the ringleader in the trouble, was
arrested and at a preliminary hearing
before Justic'e Moody was bound over
for court without bail.
About 300 colored strikebreakers
have been imported by the company,
and an attempt will be made to run
the mill. About 1100 men are idle as
the result of the strike. The men want
an increase of five cents an hour.
YORK S. S. CONVENTION OPENS
Hanover, Pa., Sept. 7. The York
County Sabbath School Association
opened a two days' convention in St.
Mark's Lutheran Church here yester
day, with six hundred delegates pres
'ent. Addresses were made by the
Rev. Dr. Ezra K. Bell, of Baltimore;
the Rev. W. S. Sturgen, of York; the
Rev. George W. Nicely, of Hanover;
Mrs. Maud Baldwin, and Preston G.
Orwig, of Philadelphia. Several
thousand Sunday school attendants
paraded last night.
Pastor's Grave Found
After 70-Year Search
Danville, 111., Sept. 7. After a
search of seventy years toy relatives the
body of Elijah Brown, who left Nash
ville, Tenn., in 1832, for Illinois, has
just been found near Allerton, 111.
Brown, a well known Baptist
preacher in Tennessee, started over
land to Northern Illinois with his wife
and seven small children, but died en
route and his body was buried by the
wayside. A marker was made for the
grave, but the place was forgotten.
When his son William was old enough,
he started a search for the body, which
continued until his death.
Since then his grandchildren have
spent much time and money getting
information from two patriarchs who
remembered the circumstances and
located the grave in a wooded pasture
on a farm near here. The marble slab
was broken, but the name and date of
death in 1838 made identification pos
sible.
BCMBIJSBEE UPSETS CAR
Klwood, Ind., Sept. 7.—Mrs. W. L.
Abbott and Mrs. L. M. Cross were rid

Abbott lost control of the machine
and the oar went into a ditch and
was supset. The women escaped with
a few bruises.
