been transferred from New York to

is still under way.' Call money was
lent in New York yesterday at as low

A SHAMPOO JACKET
A real necessity to the woman who
shampoos her own head is a jacket
to protect her from the water that
falls on the shoulders.
Quite a practical jacket can be
made from a turkish towel or from
a straight piece of linen with a hole
cut in the middle for the head to
slip through. At the sides the jacket
can be held together with cords,
tapes or ribbon. Beauty can be
added to the jacket by embroidering
little flowers here and there over the
front of same. French knots and
lazy-daisy stitches fill in quickly.
China blue and old rose are cheer
ful colors to choose for the stitches.
The edge of the jacket can be fin
ished with a rolled hem. a binding
of braid or .if one has the time, a
crocheted edge would increase the
attractiveness of the garment. A
simple coat could be made from a
piece of stock sheeting.
Should you be malting the jacket
for a gift, you might include with
the present a bath mitten. This can
be made from turkish toweling also
Or. a better idea would be to use a
turkish washcloth for the purpose,
since it is not necessary to have
fingers or a thumb in the mitten.
All that is necessary is to fold a
washcloth in half, stitcn it along the
long: end and one short end and fin
ish the edges with crochet stitches
to match that used on the jacket.

LEADS WARDENS
A MERRY CHASE
Poacher Hides in Woods,
Crawls Through Drain and
Takes to River
State Game Commission officers,
I directed oy secretary Joseph Kalbfus.
; last night landed in jail Thomas
Heiser, of Highspire. charged with
: killing squirrels out of season and
I against whom detainers have been
! lodged, after about as strenuous a
chase as has been known. Heiser
j hid in woods, crawled through a
drain, rowed about the river and se-
J creted himself on an island before he
: was caught.
| In talking about the chase Dr.
Kalbfus said to-day:
j "Sometime ago this office was in
i formed that one. Tom Heiser. living
j in Highspire, with a camp along the
i river on the York county side, was
; killing game out of season. We
knew Heiser was a gunman, and con
! sidered bad. We were told that two
|or three or more warrants had been
■ issued for this man, for larceny and
! for robbery and for other things, and
! decided that in our attempt to arrest
fthis fellow we would be on the safe
jside. We sent two men down one day
ito investigate- These men failed to
j find the camp, being deceived by resi
| dents in the neighborhood. On a day
■ or so following, we sent two more men
(and finally located the camp in a
rocky nook close to the shore and
pretty thoroughly hidden. Heiser was
■ In a boat on he river that day and
refused to come ashore. As our peo
: pie had no means of following him,
j they came home.
"The next day I took, personally,
four men from this city and ordered
one in from York. These were all on
the York side; two men from the of
fice were on the Dauphin county
side, and we again made search for
this man. On the day of finding the
camp we succeeded in securing this
fellow's revolver and shotgun, and
so felt that he was at least cut off
from some of his ordnance.
"On the second day we beat the
brush, and were told all kinds of de
ceptive stories. I finally returned to
Harrisburg and attempted to secure
a motorboat to search the islands,
but failed in this. During my efforts
in Harrisburg, the boys I had left be
hind located Heiser on an island, and
at once went after him. The fellow
ran and twisted and turned, the boys
pushing him right along until finally
the line of islands ran out, and there
was no more hiding place, so he sur
rendered. There was no assault made
by Heiser as has been reported; no
body was beat up. Two or three
shots were flred by my men across
the track or Heiser, to give him to
understand that we meant business
and tljat he would either surrender
or meet with trouble.
"Heiser was brought to Harrisburg,
placed in jail last night, and is now in
Tiork. We understand there are a
number of warrants out for Heiser
for various offenses. Heiser, we
understand, is a native of Snyder
county. He lias lived in Perry coun
ty for some time, and then lived
around Steelton in the neighborhood
of six years.
The camp in which this man was
found was about as filthy and dis
reputable as any camp I ever saw,
and to my mind the people occupying
it should be looked after by the Board
of Health.
