SPIRIT OF REVOLT
SPREADS IN RUSSIA
[Continued From First Page]
%rlth or without lease, ssread the
feews of the revolution and lead the
peasants against the landowners.
♦This Is chiefly the case in the Sara
tov government, where the people
tire often inclined to be turbulent.
•The peasants here, after passing
. resolutions of confiscation, have pro
ceeded to take possession of the
lands anil drive the landowners
•way. , _
seeds Are Lacking
The peasants announced that they
(will undertake the Spring sowing,
themselves, hut owing to lack of seed
this is said to be impossible. In
consequence the sowing Is likely to
be much delayed and a serious short
age of crop* is feared. The authori
ties are taking the matter in hand
and liope to prevent such a misfor
tune.
Peasants' conferences, to which
delegates are sent from even the
smallest communes, are being or
ganized in every province of Russia
to discuss peasant needs. Those al
ready held have insisted on a proper
distribution of land. One character
istic resolution demands that all land
which private landowners cannot
sow must immediately be surrend
ered temporarily to the peasants'
soldiers' v ives to receive shares fr.ee
nnd others at moderate rent, to be
fixed by tlie local community.
Sack Homes of TUoh
Considerable ill feetlng is shown
in some districts toward landowners.
Bessurablan peasants In one in
stance sacked n country house and
estates belonging to a rich famiiv.
The peasants of the Tambov govern
ment surrounded the houses of the
landowners and compelled them to
sign documents surrendering their
lands. In many districts th® peas
ants have taken no action, waiting
for the authorities to act. In some
pans of Bessarabia the country peo
ple are highly reactionary and in one
district, especially the Odessa, mili
tary authorities have taken strong
measures to suppress a counter rev
olutionary movement.

TO BE MADE
[Continued From First Pajte]
trict is still in bad shape, according
to reports, but will be given atten
tion next week. Dr. Raunick said:
"We want to get the city in pretty
good shape for a two weeks' clean
up. The dates are not certain. It
is the hope of the members of the
board that in the spring cleanup
the city will receive assistance of the
Pennsylvania Reduction Company
similar to that given last year.
Plan Thorough Cleanup
"In this cleanup it is the inten
tion to give all residents a chance
to do their part first, in cleaning
up yards and cellars, and lie ready
when the city gets busy. This will
same time. Housecleaning is now in
order throughout the city and for
that reason every effort will be made
to have present nsh and garbage
conditions in better shape and pre
vent a congestion when cleanup
time comes."
Dr. Raunick also stated that he
had received word from the Har
risburg- Light and Power Company
! that every effort possible would be
made to overcome the smoke and
spark nuisance. A contract has been
! let for the erection of a larger stack.
| The company has had experts here
[to covercome the trouble.
Applications are numerous for the
position of city nurse. It is under
i stood that the board will select a
Harrisburg resident.

William Grace and Harry Smelt
zer, both railroaders, were thrown
from the machine to the road.
Smeltzer struck the road face first.
His chin and forehead are badly
cut. Grace was so cut and bruised
that lie was unable to be out of
bed this morning.
After passing the car driven by
Mr. Neff, it is said Simonetti's cat
struck a slight stretch of mud and
wobbled from side to side. Accord
ing to the statements of survivors
the car was not going more than 30
miles nn hour. ,
Slmonettl organized the party for

women at his home a short ride.
ISyrwitursM's of Arrlilcnt
Conductor R. L. Kieffer and Simon
Page. motorman of Paxtang ear No.
609, were eyewitnesses of the crash.
They declared the car swung
from side to side before striking the
pole. The striking of the concrete
guard also helped to throw the car
across the road.
David Mclhtym has been employ
ed on the Pennsylvania railroad for
25 years. During that time he lias
never been in a single accident. He
has just returned from work when
Slmonettl invited him for the ride.
He Is survived by his wife, two

badly bruised up," he said, lingering
a deep cut on.hls face, "but I'm all
right." /

ployes of the hospital, who was
hurried to the scene of the accident,
with the ambulance, when asked
about the car, declared "I didn't see
any car, all I saw was blood."
The High Cost of
Indigestible Food
falls heavily upon the house
hold where there is no in
telligent direction of the
food supply. Expensive high
proteid foods, such as beef
and pork, impose a heavy
burden upon the liver and
kidneys. They are not as
nutritious as cereals and
fruits. Two Shredded
Wheat Biscuits with milk
supply all the nutriment
needed for a half day's work
at a cost of only four or five
