tions in Company I

der to entrain for Camp Hancock.
The officers have received no definite
information regarding the time of

air that the start will not be many
days delayed.
The boys of Company D are sorely
missed, for, as one of the Company I
boys expressed it, "the boys of Com
pany D are mighty good scouts, and
we are all anxious to see them
again."
Plans for a fitting demonstration
to be held upon the departure of |
Company I and the machine gun
company are going forward and all
arrangements will be completed
when the time of departure is an
nounced.

Troop C Gets "Jabbed"
Persons passing the old church at
Fourth and State streets, where the
Governor's Troop is, stationed, were
met this morning by numerous husky
young men without coats and with
rolled-up sleeves. The soldiers did
not have anything on their minds,
but rather on their arms, for every
soldier boy was either inoculated or
vaccinated to-day. The new mem
bers of the troop who were vacci
nated upon their Joining the troop
were inoculated, and the old recruits,
about sixty-rive in number, who were
vaccinated about a year ago before
leaving for the border, went through
the process again to-day.
Captain Roberts is planning to in
struct his men in French and a num
ber of phrases which will prove es
pecially useful to the boys when they
arrive in France are being prepared
for general distribution among the

Ask Red Cross to Dance
Three Steelton young men offered
themselves fo* enlistment in the navy
yesterday, but were not accepted be
cause they could not pass the rigid
physical examination.
Major J. M. Peters has issued the
following invitation to the local Red
Cross chapter:
"In recognition of the many cour
tesies extended the various military
organizations, the medical depart
ment, Eighth Pennsylvania Infan
try, desires you to attend, as hon
orary guests, a dance to be held ai
Fort Washington Park, Friday even-'
ing, August 24, at 8.15 o'clock.
"The committee in charge will ap
preciate a prompt reply In regard
to the acceptance of this invitation."
Reserve Militia to
Come Along Gradually
Plans for the formation of the
Pennsylvania Reserve Militia, pro
vided by the act of 1917 to take the
place of the National Guard after its
entry into federal service, will be
worked out gradually during the re
mainder of the year, as there are
many matters connected with the
guard to be taken up and more or
less uncertainty exists as to how
many men the draft will take.
The units of the reserve militia
will in all probability be located In
places where the State owns the ar
mories and it is probable that when
the Adjutant General reaches the
point where he will designate persons
in each community to enroll men for
inspection prior to muster in that
recognition will be extended to for
mer national guardsmen who have
rendered previous service of a satis
factory character and who have been
unable because of minor defects to
enter the federal service.
No announcement ot any plans
has yet been made by the AdJutiTTit
General.

Quits to Pay Debts
Warsaw, Ind., Aug. 23.—Dr. Sol
C. Dickey, who founded Winona As
sembly and who for the past twenty
three years has been virtual head of
the great Chautauqua and Bible con
ference Institution, has tendered his
resignation as general secretary to
W. J. Bryan, president, and the
board of directors, of which Prof.
E. O. Excell, of Chicago, is chair-,
man. I
In an open letter read from the
Chautauqua platform Dr. Dickey
stated that he intended to devote all
his time in the future to the task of
raising mongy with which to repay
needy creditors, who lost practically
everything when Winona went bank
rupt several years ago, and was sold
at receivers' sale for SIOO,OOO.
The debts of the Institution totaled
$900,000, and although this enor
mous debt is wiped out in the eyes
of the law, Dr. Dickey intends to
wipe the stain from himself and
from Winona Assembly by repaying
every dollar lost by needy creditors.
His successor as general secretary
has not yet been elected.
HER "MAID" HAD WHISKERS
Atlantic Cltv. N. J.,-Aug. 22.—A
cottager In fashionable Chelsea last
night whispered over the telephone
to etective Bagnell that there was a
mystery In her home she desired to
have solved and that concerned her
new colored maid. "Do you know
that there Is a distjnet growth of
whiskres to be observed on his face,
and I think he is a man, but he
wears dresses and does the work
well. But lam afraid."
Detectiv eßagneli with Police Ser
geajit Miller called a short time after
the message and arrested the
"maid." In the Police Court this
morning the "majd" registered as
Lucinda Russelll, and said his home
home wa sat 1415 Naudain street,
and claimed that he had done no
harm. He found he could earn bet
ter wages in his capacity as "maid"
than at anything he could obtain in
the way of employment at present.
He was released, but Captain of De
tectives Malseed is making art in
vestigation.
MIGHT HAVE DONE BETTER
There were two suitors for Miss
Murphy's hand. One was a grocer
named O'Flaherty, whom her father
and mother strongly urged her to
marr v . and the other was a. publican
named Finnegan. Mary herself fa
vored the latter, and In the end
married him. One day when she
was settled jn her new home she
visited her parents and showed them
a new gold watch her husband had
i given her. "Ah," said the mother,
disapprovingly, "if ye'd took my ad
vice and yer father's advice, Mary
Ann, 'tlsn't a gold watch ye'd be
having, In yer pocket, but a good
eight-da yclock."
, HER SPECIAL LINE
"Are you a good cook?" asked a
lady of a showily-dressed applicant
for a situatio nas a domestic serv
ant. "No, I don't cook," wa s the
reply. "Are you accutomed to wash
ing and ironing?" "I'm afraid 1
couldn't do either; they're too bad
for the hands." "Can you sweep
and turn out a room?" "Certainly
not! I'm not strong enough!" "Well,
then," aske dthe exasperated lady,
"what do you do?" "I dust!" replied
the girl placidly.
