to let their buildings be used for

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
GEORGE C.BOLDT,
HOTEL KING, DIES
Owner of Bellevue-Strafford
and Waldorf-Astoria Amassed
Millions in Business
New York. Deo. 6. Two blocks
from the spot where he started life as
a waiter, George C. Boldt. the most
widely-known hotel proprietor in the
country, died yesterday a multi-mil
lionaire.
Boldt's life romance may be told in
three characteristics: Initiative,
optimism, courage. It was In the
Waldorf Astoria Hotel, New York City
one of the greatest monuments to his
memory, that death came. It ended
a career which many predicted was
destined for even greater things.
Air. Boldt virtually died in harness.
He had been in poor health for sev
eral weeks, due largely to the great
rush of business. There was no end
of vast undertakings ahead.
The fact that most of his plans
were crowned with success made work
a pleasure to Mr. Boldt. It has been
said that none of his employes has
ever seen him sitting down idly.
Mr. Boldt was in Philadelphia about
six weeks ago. He appeared to be In
the best of health and mapped out a
number of little improvements to be
installed at the Bellevue-Stratford, of
which he was also the owner.
As far back as thirteen years ago
Mr. Boldt's annual salary for con
ducting the Waldorf-Astoria was
♦ 500,000.
Mr. Boldt had recently accepted an
invitation to address the. incorpora
tor* of the iproopsed million-dollar
Penn-Harris Hotel here. He had many
friends in this city.
Ministerial Body Is
Opposed to Noises
In a statement made public yester
day, the executive committee of the
Harrisburg Ministerial Association
protests against interference with
services in city churches on Sunday.
According to members of the as
sociation, the proposed addition to the
Pennsylvania Milk Products Company
plant in Atlas street near two churches
is partly responsible for the protest.
other annoyances near churches In
various sections of the city have been
reported also, the ministers claim,
and efforts will be made to stop any
interference with services. The let
ter follows:
To the People of Harrisburg:—
The undersigned, constituting the
executive committee of the Ministerial
Association of Harrisburg and vicinity
acting for and by the authority of the
Association, issue' this statement of
conviction to those above addressed:
The worship of God in the various
churches of the city is a source of
blessing to the entire community. Any
interference with it is, therefore, a
matter of public concern. We would
therefore utter a most earnest protest
against the conduct of any business
near any church in such a manner as
to interfere with the comfortable con
duct of the services of the sanctuary.
Especially do we protest against the
establishment of any business which
will disturb the public worship of God
in the neighborhood of any church al
ready erected.
We further ask that this statement
be published in the papers of Harris
burg and read from the pulpits of the
churches of the city.

SOUTHERN EGGS
APPEAR IN STATE
Dairy and Food Commissioner James
Foust to-day declared that Southern
states eggs had commenced to appear
in the Philadelphia markets and would
be in Pittsburgh and Harrisburg be
fore long. "The result will be a drop
in price before the holidays. Our in
spectors have found that cold storage
eggs are being forced out by the de
mand before the time limit is up and
in a short time the warehouses will
be cleared out," said the commis
sioner.
According to the commissioner, the
inspectors have not had to tag a single
dozen of storage eggs for being stofed
beyond the limit. The eggs have been
found to have been sold weeks before
their time limit is up. "The egg
speculator and gambler have taken to
the woods because of the boycotts and
the backing given to the move to bring
down the price of foods by the news
papers," said the commissioner. "It is
not the farmer who is getting i.way
with the increment in price, but the
gambler. He is the one to blame, and
I'm glad the Southern eggs have come
in, because thev will break the corner.
There are Southern eggs here earlier
than I have known them."
Mr. Foust is also keeping an eye on
butter in storage and if any is found
stored beyond the legal limit it will
he outlawed. The same Is being done
in regard to other foods.
