SATURDAY EVENING,
THE DANCING GOLDS (
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Gold, who twice have danced all the way around the
world, one-stepping: into Harrisburg a few years ago and hesitating here long
enough to build up a motion picture business at the Family Theater, Third
and Harris streets, are shining up their dancing pumps aga,in.
They're booked!
That tells the story in two words, but Jack Gold wouldn't be satisfied
with an announcement in two words, and the Majestic Theater management,
which booked Jack and Mrs. Jack, expects a couple of columns about it, so
there's nothing left to do but stretch the story out with such trifling details
as where and when they are to appear.
It all came about a few weeks ago when Mr. and Mrs. Gold gave a box
party at the Majestic in honor of Peter Magaro, proprietor of tlie Regent
Theater. There was a dancing act on the bill and Jack Gold modestly admitted
that when lie and his wife were headlining in vaudeville their dancing made
the specimen then before them look like thirty cents. And, surprisingly enough,
Mrs. Gold said her husband was right.
"What, you dance better than that." inquired the downtown pictureman,
as the little lady on the stage whirled around four times on one toe without
a transfer.
"That's the dope," replied Gold.
A bet was made. Magaro wagered one day's rental of a Mary Pickford
feature against a year's leceipts of the Family Theater, where the Golds hold
forth, when they are not downtown looking at someone else's show.
So the date is Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, February 19, 20, 21.
Tile place is the Majestic.
Tile audience will be the judge.
Manager Hopkins, of the Majestic, confirmed the report "Yes," lie said,
"contracts are signed, but better than that, it is Washington's birthday week
and Gold is too good a patriot to go back on his word on George's anniversary."

Americans Reported
Stripped of Clothing
by German Military
Washington, Feb. 17. Full infor
mation on the reparture of former
American consuls in Germany was de
livered to Secretary Ujnsing to-day in
a note by the Swiss minister. No de
tails were given out.
It Is understood, however, that the
information supports that received
yesterday from the Spanish ambassa
dor at Berlin, promising everv ar
rangement to facilitate departure of
the 86 former American officials and
their families.
While Ambassador Gerard had ex
pected that a second trainload of these
officials would leave Munich for Swit
zerland "some day this week," there
has been some delay in their assem
bly, and officials do not know when or
how they will come out. No alarm,
however, is felt.
No reports of indignities by search
and detention to Americans leaving
Germany have come to the State De
partment since its protest against such
practices was sent to Berlin just be
fore diplomatic relations were broken
off. It was stated officially to-day that
the German government had not re

Consul Seltzer at Breslau, ami Con

of had treatment by German military
authorities upon which the State De

HARJRISBURG TELEGRAPH:
GREATEST ARMIES
EVER ASSEM
COMING
British Headquarters in France,
Feb. 16 via London, Feb. 17.—The
cold which has held tho western front
frost bound for nearly a month is grad
ually moderating and it is easy to
sense all along the battle line an un
mistakable quickening which tells of
I the approach of spring and foreshad
ows tha coming to grips of the great- i
est armies yet assembled In the world 1
war. Already these armies are reach- |
ing out toward each other, testing i
various pans of the lines and attempt- |
ing to discover the most likely point !
of contact for the beginning of the
titanic struggle that is expected to i
make this tho decisive year of the ]
conllict. In anticipation of eventuali
ties the Germans have removed the
civilian populations from the cities
and towns in proximity to their line,
but no such precaution has been felt
necessary behind the allied front.
C*tins Koariug Steadily
Never silent, the British guns are
beginning to roar more and more
steadily. To-nlglit they are booming
with particular violence in the sector
of the Somme. From a distance the
bombardment might easily be mis
taken for the grumbling echoes of a
passing summer storm. The chorus of
guns rises and falls like great pe.is of
thunder and there are flashes in the
darkened sky like the play of light
ning along the horizon.
Depend on Corps dc'clitc
New groups of divisions have been
recently identified along the German
lines bearing out reports of great
troop movements now going on in Ger
many. British officers, however, say
that this concentration is not as form
idable as it appears at first sight. They
say that many of the so-called new
divisions of their opponents are mere
ly a rearrangement of old divisions.
These statements are based on in
formation carefully collected during
the continuous trench raids. In a
raid undertaken this week an appar
ently new Bavarian division was lo
cated. It was afterward discovered
that this corps had been made up
from regiments taken from older di
visions. Another maneuver carried
out by the Germans has been a comb
ing out of regiments and divisions by
men were taken from each company in
vhich groups of 2 5 of the youngest
the line and sent back to Germany to
form new units or corps d'elite. Brit
ish officers believe that it is on these
corps d'elite that Field Marshal Von
Hindenburg Is placing his greatest
reliance.
Ijaiulstriimors in Trenches
According to the information ob

strum regiments have recently been
Identified on the front here. They had
formerly been employed in patrolling
the Dutch frontier and protecting
lines of communication. According!
to prisoners the picked men of the
landsturmers are In the trenches while
those who are unfitted for the hard
ships of the firing line are on duty at
Ihe depots in the rear. Utilizing the
landstrum battalions in this way per
mits the organization of the young
men divisions in Germany and it is
these latter, British officers say whose
movements are now reported and \tfho
are depended upon to withstand the
shock of the coming battle. Many
boys of 17 and 18 have also been
found in the German trenches by the
British raiders.
Doubt lteliahility of Men
The British staff is keenly interest
ed in a report, that prior to the declar
ation of unrestricted submarine war
fare by Germany, Field Marshal Von ■
Hindenburg stated to Chancellor Von
Bethmann-Hollweg:
"Everywhere our front is invul
nerable. Tin- supply of reserves is
ample, the troops in good spirits
and absolutely reliable."
The British point of view is that the
last three words of this statement con
stituted an admission that doubts were
entertained in German circles as to
the reliability of their troops. There
is no disposition, however, to under
estimate the stubborn resistance that
the Germans have the power of mak
ing. The evacuation of Grandcourt
by the Germans and other minor suc
cesses won by the British in their in
itial operations are interpreted as
meaning that the Germans are pre
pared to give way at some points in
order to fall back upon carefully pre
pared main lines of defense, lines that
have not been hammered by bombs
and shells after the. manner of so
many of the present front trenches.
Trained All Winter
Artillery is looked upon as the de
ciding factor in the coming battle and
upon artillery the British have been
concentrating their energy. The con
stant thundering of the British guns
all through the long dark winter has
had a deeper meaning than the casual
scattering of death and destruction.
It has meant the careful training of
officers and men in all the modern
arts of gunnery, from the timing and
placing of protective curtains of fire,
just in front of advancing infantry,
to the most skillful co-operation -f

Weigh Purchases to
Make Sure of Getting
Full Value For Money
Harry D. Heel, city sealer of weights
and measures, In a statement to-day,
urged the public to watch carefully all
purchases and see that dealers give full
weight as provided by law.
Pointing to the high cost of potatoes,
Inspector Reel declared that consumers
should insist 011 getting full weight.
His statement follows, in part:
"Potatoes at the present price are
getting to be a luxury, and my advice
to the consumer is to see that they
receive weight. Under the law a quar
ter peek must weigh pounds, a half
peck must weigh 7% pounds, a peck fif
teen pounds, a half bushel thirty pounds
and a bushel sixty pounds.
"Do not be afraid of oeffnding the
dealer by checkig up on your pur
purchases, as the dealer himself re
weighs the goods he receives, and if he
becomes offended because some one
checks after him then it is very evident
that he Is not doing as lie would be

New Area May Allow
Belgian Relief Fleet to Sail
Washington, Feb. 17. There is a
possibility that the new danger zone
announced by the British naval au
thorities for the North Sea may allow
the sailing of the whole Belgian relief

tain's move allows a narrow open
channel between her zone and the
German zone through which relief
ships might pass.
Herbert C. Hoover, chairman of the
relief commission, announced that the
Belgian relief work would continue as
heretofore until some new eventuality
came up.

FEBRUARY 17, 1917:
Local Banks Have Not
Received New Bank Notes
None of the new one and two

to reielve more than a thousand.
Another institution made requisition
several weeks ago for a thousand of
each of the one and two-dollar notes
although they are not looked for un

Identify Raider as
German Cruiser Vineta
New York, Feb. 17. The identifi
cation of one of the German South At
lantic sea ratlder as the cruiser Vineta
was definitely established with the ar
rival here to-day of eleven sailors,
seven of whom are American who
were members of the crew of the
British steamship St. Theodore.
The Vineta after capturing the Brit
ish freighter early in January turned
the St. Theodore into a raiding vessel
by mounting guns on her deck and
supplying her with a German crew.
The Vineta then resumed her mission
of destroying entente vessels and the
men arriving here to-day said they
were allowed to witness, from the
cruiser's deck, the sinking of two
French sailing vessels and five British
steamships.
Asks R. R. Representatives
to Co-operate in Coal Move
Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 17. The
State Public Utilities Commission is in
possession of information that certain
people have been guilty of Indictable
offenses in connection with the coal

H. Hughes, a member of the commis
sion, told railroad men here to-day at
the opening of an investigation of coal
shortage conditions.
Judge Hughes asked the represen

operate with the commission in getting
coal to Ohio consumers.
"This commission," said Mr.Hughes,
"is in possession of information that
certain people have been guilty of in
dictable offenses in these matters. It
appears that there has been a criminal
conspiracy which has interfered with
the discharge of your duties.
"This is not a thrust at the car
riers but an attempt to reach those
who are not acting fairly. We come
to the railroads to know whether they
are discharging their duties and
whether they are hindered by some
trust or body of citizens."
