By Associated Press
New York, June 28. (Wall
Street) —With the exception of the
motor group and a few high priced
specialties, firmness ruled at the
outset of to-day's dealings. U. S.
Steel advanced a large fraction, affi
liated issues recording similar or
greater gains. Equipments, some of
the metals and oils, Pittsburgh Coal
and Ohio Gas shared in the rise
which was attended by considerable
activity. General Motors, Stude
baker, Texas Company and Indus
trial Alcohol were reactionary with
declines of 1 to 2 points. A sale of
Brooklyn Union Gas at 105 repre
sented a loss of almost 12 points.
Rails were dull and irregular.

COUPLE TO WED
' AND.' MRS. ROY J. SNIVELY
An unusually attractive wedding
will e that of Miss Margaret D. Lln
derman and Roy J. Sntvely, taking
place this evening at 8.30 o'clock at
the home of the bride's sister, Mrs.
Charles B. Lehr, 1327 Berryhlll
street. The ceremony will be per
formed by the Rev. 1 Clayton Albert
Smucker ot the Stevens Memorial
Methodist Church.
A unique and pretty arch effect of
red and pink roses with overhead
draplngs of the 8 tars and Stripes
under which the bridal party will
stand lends a keenly patriotic tone
to the i-erainony.
The bride, who will be given in
marriage by her uncle, William
Lehr, will wear a lovely gown of
creme taffetas veiled in net and a
tulle veil caught with rosebuds. Her
bouquet will be of bride roses. Mrs.

rifles, they typified America of to
day.
Many Ways to Victory
Conversation generally turned
around pet ways of eliminating
"Bcches." The regimental mascots,
a bull terrier, a goat—which was to
be defended at all costs —a pet mon
key, several lizards and a parrot
which prided itself on billingsgate,
all formed part of the outfit.
During the brief stay in the con
centration camps, before they went
aboard the transports, the men
amused themselves by wrltijig cards,
to be sent home the moment their
safe arrival should be announced. It
was hot In the camp, but the men all
rejoiced that It was much cooler
than the Mexican border. One strap
ping sergeant said that, as soon as
he saw mud he was going to roll in
It—anything but the dust of Mexico.
IxMig Troop Trains
Long troop trains set down their
human burden within the narrow
confines of the tented city—appro
priately called Camp Cinder —while
barges laden to capacity ferried the
never ending stream out to the wait
ing liner^.
All the transports had been heav
ily armed. Five inch guns were
placed astern, while several more
gleamed from behind canvas screens
along the decks.
On the morning of June 14 the last
train had arrived and at the last
rambunctious army "Maude" had
been cajoled aboard. Throughout
the day the barges continued their
trips carrying great quantities of
supplies—beef and the celebrated
beans—not to forget mountainous
sacks of "Cawfee."
All Lights Extinguished
At six bells—7 p. m.—the last
trip had been made, and as the dark
ness gathered, black clouds of smoke
issued from every stack. Three quar
ters of an hour later the groaning
rumble of the anchor bitts, accom
panied by the siren of a complaining
donkey engine, nnnounced that the
"mud hooks" were coming up. As
eight bells sounded, the steamer
leading the line signalled the depart
ure of the fleet by a short sharp
blast of her whistle.
Slowly and ponderously ship by
ship maneuvered into line. All lights
were extinguished—even the red and
green sailing lights. The phantom
fleet—dim shadows alone—passed
the monitor guarding the harbor
mouth. As the last vessel disappear
ed in the night mists to meet her
convoy, a few unquenchable spirits
gathered on the after taffrail and
sang "Sweet Adeline."
Marines Slipped Out
of Philadelphia With
No One in the Secret
By Associated Press
New York, June 28.—50 quietly
did a regiment of marines included
in that part of the Pershing expedi
tion which already has landed in
France slip away from the Philadel
phia navy yard that a sailor base
ball team at practice on the parade
ground did not know a,700 men un
der command of Colonel A. Doyen,
were on their way to the battle front.
No drums or bugles sounded and
the only ceremony which attended
the leave-taking was a brief speech
to the officers by Major General
George Barnett, commandant of the
corps. The story of their quiet
march from barracks was released
here last night.
At 2.30 o'clock the afternoon of
the departure the baseball players
had the parade ground ail to them
selves, and no one was in sight on
the street in front of the home of
the post commander. A few sec
onds later the head of a column of
soldiers of the sea in khaki and in
heavy marching order swung into
the brick-paved street in front of
the commander's hous4. Major Gen
eral Barnett and a little group of
other officers from headquarters
took up posts on the turf of the
parkway beside the curb.
Trust in Men
The company officers of the bat
talion stepped out in front of Major
Ge leral Barnett and saluted. For
half a minute the corps commandant
addressed them. He spoke in an
every day conversational tone, which
could not be heard a dozen yards
away, and the message was simply
that he trusted that the marines who
were setting out that day to fight
under General Pershing would
staunchly uphold the high tradi
tions of the corps.
The officers saluted and marched
back to their places. The battalion
stood at rigid attention for a mo
ment. Then, with a snap, rifles jump
ed to shoulders, squads swung into
column formation, ana the line pass
ed swiftly on down the street to the
gate of the navy yard.
Brisk and Businesslike
No cheering crowd greeted the
men as they emerged at the gate
way; only a handful of civilians saw
them board a train of day coaches
for an Atlantic port. The run
browned fighting men, all veterans of
campaigning in Haiti and Santo Do
mingo, waved their campaign hats
from the windows as tne train pull
ed out, but neither they nor their
friends indulged in any cheering.
The departure of this first battal
ion had not stirred the least ripple
of excitement in the navy yary. Half
an hour or so later another battalion
marched briskly down the same
brick street and formed In the pa
rade grounds. The bluejacket nine
was still at its baseball practice. A
third battalion formed and stacked
arms in front of the barracks.
Presently, without so much as a
bugle note for warning, the two bat-

English Much Pleased
at American Speed
London, June 28.—Arrival of an
advance force of the American Army
in Franco is the predominant fea
ture in the news columns of the
morning newspapers, which display
under big headlines such details as
are allowed to be published. The
Times comments on the arrival as
an omen of hope ana promise to
triends of ordered freedom, a sure
presage of an allied victory and the
signal of a demoeranc peace to bo
wrung from defeated Germany,
while the moral effect will be im
measurable.
Fine Old Home to Be
Pershing's Headquarters
Paris, June *2B.—Major General
Pershing, the American commander,
has left the hotel in which he has
been staying since his arrival in
Paris to make his home in a fine old
residence in the Rue de Varenne, so
as to be near his headquarters. The
house, which has a magnificent gar
den. formerly belonged to Prince
Gortchakoff. It was leased before the
war by Ogden Mills, of Nety York,
who placed it at the disposal qf Gen
eral Pershing.
Pershing Supreme in
Command of Americans
Washington, June 28.—The ques
tion asked in the House of Commons
and which the British government
refrained from answering, whether
"the American soldiers now on the
western front are under the supreme
command of the French generalissi
mo or General Haig or the American
general" has already been answered
by the War Department officials, al
though no official and formal an
nouncement of the instructions to
General Pershing has been made.
General Pershing will be supreme
in command of, and will have his in
dependent source of supplies for the
American expeditionary forces in
France, and will not operate under
any orders, except such as he may
receive from the War Department in
Washington. He will collaborate and
consult with the French generalissi
mo, however, although such confer
ences wyi not in any sense affect the
independent character of his com
mand.
It is understood that the War De
partment is postponing the publica
tion of General Pershing's instruc
tions until after he actually takes a
position on the western front.
Miss Alltra M. writes: "I have tried
a number of fat reducing remedies
with no avail. A friend tells me that
your prescription enabled her to re
duce 24 pounds. Is It (five-grain ar
bolone tablets) safe for me to use
likewise?"
Answer: If the simple directions
are followed, five-grain arbolone
tablets are safe in the reduction of
abnormal fat. Thousands have been
benefited that I know of.
...
C. M. C. asks: "Please relieve me of
a coated tongue, foul breath, head
ache, constipation and general ill
health."
Answer: If habitually constipated,
you should take three-grain sulpherb
tablets (not sulphur) an# arouse the
organs which eliminate waste ma
terial from your body. These tablets
purify the blood and* improve the
health by acting on the liver, kid

John C. asks: "Will you please tell

weight of Jou or anybody who is ab
normally thin. Don't expect to do so
in a week or two. It takes time, but
the help is worth time and money too.
