Jury Takes Further Evidence in Thaw Case Philadelphia, March 13.—Further testimony bearing on the mental con dition of Harry K. Thaw, who is in St. Mary's Hospital, convalescing from wounds self-intlicted on January 11, was to be heard to-day by Ellis Ames Ballard, commissioner In lunacy, and a panel of six Jurors. The commis sion also considered the fact sobtaln ed yesterday by their examination of Thaw at the hospital. The findings of the body will be re ported to the court of common pleas to which Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw applied for an inquiry into her son's sanity in an effort to block his re moval to New York, where he is un der indictment on a criminal charge. CUT THEIIt OWN LOCKS Wilkes-Barre, Pa., March 13.—Wini fred Saykowski, thirteen years old, and Julia Slafenski, in the presence of their parents, furnished the police with signedi confessions yesterday in which lliey admit that they were not vic tims of the supposed "hair nipper" who has terrorized the Yyomlng Valley, but that they had cut oft their own locks. Kach girl declared she wanted to be like others, "who were getting their names in the paper." The confessions substantiate the theory of the police that the presence of a mysterious "hair nipper" has been largely imaginary. You Can't Brush Or Wash Out Dandruff The only sure way to get rid of < l andruff Is to dissolve it, then you de stroy It entirely. To do this, get about lour ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub It in gently with the finger tips. Do this to-night, and by morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applica tions will completely dissolve and en tirely destroy every single sign and tfaee of it, no matter how much dand ruff you may have. You will lind, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and never fails to do the work. —Advertisement. " Happiest Person Alive" She Cries "I am the happiest person alive," Ties Mrs. Karninski, of 214 Mulberry St., Reading, Pa., "for my health has been returned to me and 1 am free from suffering at last." "Oh, how i suffered no words can tell. My stomach and digestive or gans were all upset, 1 was nervous, headachy and my circulation was very poor. Often it would soem as though all the blood in my body rushed to my head leaving my limbs dead and numb." "Often while at the moving pictures 1 would be attacked by them flushes and would have to hurry to the open air to get relief and it sometimes seemed as if my legs could not sup port me and I would have to sit down quickly or collapse where I stood." "I saw in the newspapers many stories told by people who had been relieved by Tanlac and now 1 want to add my praise to their's for I know that Tanlac is truly a wonder worker. It. relieved the blood pressure in my head at once, and I improved steadily day by day. "Now I feel simply splendid; I eat lots better and sleep soundly and rest fully from 8.30 to 5.30 and I am much stronger now that I can eat and sleep properly. "Tanlac has helped me so much that I am going to induce my husband to take it for his stomach gives him much distress at times." Tanlac, the famous reconstructive tonic, is now, being introduced here at Gorgas' Drug Store, where the Tanlac man is meeting the people and ex plaining the merits of this master medicine.

JUi alarming significance to the hun dred million people of the United States is the report of the Foreign Trade Department of the National City Bank, New York, showing that on Jan. 1, 1917, there were 10,000,000 less cattle (other than milk cows), and 5,000,000 less sheep in the United States than there were Jan. 1, 11)07, when the population of the country was at least 13,000,000 less than it Is now. This large decrease in the number of food animals emphasizes the duty of every State of the Union to look into the vicious political activities which, by the uninitiated, are labelled 'Animal Industry Conservation." The alarming decrease in the num ber o lavailable iood animals now herded in the United States is due in no small measure to the arbitrary suspension by individuals of laws placed on the statute books to pro tect not only the food supply of the people, but to safeguard the health of the herds and flocks upon which the people so largely depend for their food supply. When Individuals of political power succeed in suspending these laws The whole theory ot government degener ates into a sordid mixture of special privileges and license. The laws of most states require that all veterinarians practising within the state limits shall be licensed and that they shall file a certificate with the county cler kof the county in which they praclse. In New York City alone eighty-nix illegal practioners have fifiled no cei tificates as required by law. Their official superiors make no effort to enforce the law. Even sworn charges reflecting upon the intrigity of state veterinarians are for political purposes, ignored.

February 9, 1917, the facts were made public for the first time, where upon the veterinarian who had the courage topursue the straight and narrow path was immediately disci plined by his superiors as a warning to other men not to talk out of school, even though public health and the health of the animal industry are at stake. This Gill- Griessman episode con stitutes a classical example of the forces, ordinarily Invisible to the pub- j 11c eye, which are at work undermln- : ing the stamina of the American j people. As Griessman, Friday, February 9,1 1917, after repeated efforts to have ; his case aired by the proper officials ; had failed, made his charges public, he was finishing his test for Messrs. Cohen & Alex, livery stable proprie tors, 440 East 102 d street. New Yotk City, for glanders on one gray mare, blind left eye, llea-bitten, ten years old, sixteen hands high. The test was made so that the mare might be shipped, according to law, to the farmer who had purchased it, Frank Glushenok, Kural Free Deliv ery Route, 2 l v antic, Conn. At the completion of the test, 12.47 p. m., Friday, February 9, Dr. Griess man issued Certificate No. 8310, de claring the animal free from glanders. The certificate was sent immediate ly to the New York State Department of Agriculture, 17 Battery place, in order to obtain a shipping permit from the State authorities. Without this permit the Chelsea Line, operat ing a boat between New York City and Yantlc, Conn., would not accept the horse for delivery to another State. When a messenger bearing the cer tificate arrived at the office of the Department of Agriculture, 3.30 p. in., he ..was informed that the certificate was "not valid,'' and that it "would not be accepted" by the Department of Agriculture. Griessman's charges against Gill were made public at 11.30 p. m., Feb ; ruary 9. Within four hours the I clutch of invisible government was at | his throat. The story of this affair j throws a white light upon the disease which is eating away at the heart of | the United States. W. A.

He was | born September 29, 1 845, at Esther ton, the old family seat of the Hiesters | just outside of llarrisburg, and was (the oldest son of Judge A. O. Hiester. I His preliminary education was obtain |ed at St. Paul's school, later he at tended Dickinson college, being grad uated from there with fine standing. He was one of the founders of the Sigma Chi fraternity at Dickinson, I and at the time of his death was the I oldest living member of his chapter. I As a civil engineer with wide ex perience, Mr. Hiester had a prominent | part in many of the important enter | prises undertaken a generation ago in the eastern part of the country. In much of his work he was associated | with the late Francis Shunk, one of the fdremost engineers of his day. Among other enterprises with which Mr. Hiester was connected, was the erection of the elevated railroad in New York city, survey of the Ohio river in order to make it navigable; the construction of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad, and a score of other equally important projects in the East and South. Returns Here Later In 1870 Mr. Hiester married Miss Elizabeth Reily Stephens and moved to Connecticut, where he continued his engineering work, later going to Kentucky to take part in the construc tion of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. Later he moved to Elmira, N. Y., where he remained for fifteen years as roadmaster of the Erie Rail road. In 189fi the family returned to Harrlsburg where they have since re sided. For some time Air. Hiester af ter coming here was connected with I the Equitable Insurance Company, and later was secretary of the Board of Trade. For some years, however, he | has not been engaged in any active | business. Besides his widow he leaves three children, all of whom are resi- I dents of this city—William S., Marc C. and Matilda W. The funeral services will be conduct ed by Dr. George E.

Mr. Reed thus steps from the Philippine Commission where he had held the post of secretary of commerce and po lice until the reorganization of the executive departments of the govern ment Anally abolished that body, to be the first head of the railroad sys tem under government 'control. This appointment came immediate ly after the cabled announcement that the money gained from an Issue of $4,000,000 worth of Philippine govern t ment bonds, purchased in October of last year by th® National City Com pany, had Jeen paid over to the stock holders of the old Manila Railroad Company by Clyde A.
