BUNCO MEN GET $613
FOR '22-KARAT GOLD'
[Continued from First Page.]
name of a jeweler who might buy a
card of rings.
The two called a Steelton number
and a half an hour later In came
a man with a 'card of a Steelton
jeweler who bought the rings for
S2OO.
By this time, the man had pro
duced a box of gold dust that he
hr.il gotten in Reno. Nev. This was
"analysed" before Mr. Goldstein and
declared to be worth $2,500. "Pure
enough for dental work, 22 karat,"
was the swindler's verdict.
This work was observed by Mr.
Goldstein who himself tests gold and
silver in the course of his business.
The Steelton confederate was anxious
to buy the lot but had only $1,200.
Not Satisfied
Two checks were written out for
various sums which apparently were
cashed at nearby banks. Still the
sum was short and the first bunco
steerer advised Goldstein to get in
on the deal and make a quick profit.
Goldstein protested for a time, but
finally agreed to lift his entire bank

satisfied even with this. The fund

Mr. Goldstein scraped up the monev
from the change in his pockets. The
three then went to the bank leaving
the "gold" in their t victim's hands.
They did not come' back and the
next assay did not come up to the

The police to-day were unable to
locate any clue to the three .lien.
They found that the "jeweler" had

that the real jeweler had never

him.
NEWTON GETS IN
NEW HOTEL
[Continued from First Page.]
for upwards of an hour: Finally in
ar. unguardtd moment he waved a
greeting to his friends on the pave
ment; and then, to quote Kdmund
James of Camp Hill, "tne stuff was
off."
Newton played an unfair trick on
the contractors. He camouflaged him
self as a carpenter, ginned with a
liace and bit. a hammer and other
tiols and wearing the, regulation
c ••rentei 'a apron tilled with eleven
pounds of nails. Newton at 7 o'clok,
presente *■ himself at the Penn-Harris
Hotel with the calm confidence of a
man who had been on the job three
days, lie was permitted to scale the
crags and precipices until he reached
the fourth floor. There he enjoyed
himself to what one might call tlie
utmost, until finally he poked his
head over the side and waved his
reorny greeting to the unfortunates
on the stieet. The remainder of the
!•< ns of Rest made a rush for the con
tractor. They demanded permission
to join Mr. Newton. The contractor'?
Mprcsentatlve said Newton wasn't in
the building. Upon investigating,
however, he found the camouflaged
tne inside a pianobox used for tools.
Mr. Newton was eased from floor to
f'cor just ahead of the contractors
angry representative. In the mean
time Kdmund James and the nthers
had departed in a huff. They were
going, they said, over to the Senate
Hotel and waid until work started
there. The contractor forced Newton
to bring them back. Harmony was
only restored after Newton had
promised to buy some of the verj
best MoTfytown cigars to be found
ir Harrisburg.

PUT 'SMOKES'
ON CHRISTMAS
SHOPPING FUN D
Time Is Hero For Buying To
bacco For Our Boys at
the Front
When you realize that only 25 cents
is required from you to place in the
hands of a fighting soldier a package
containing' enough smokes for a week
you can see what you ought to do.
What's a quarter, anyway? A good
deal to some people, wehl admit. But
to one of our boys longing for a
smoke, such a package is worth a
good deal mre than its weight in
geld. If you have any doubt of that,
just ask us to show you some of the
testimony that has been coming over
from the other side. The men are
Just longing for American tobacc.
and cigarets and this country is nobly
responding to the demand and send
ing thousands and thousands of these
kits to France.
And right now at this moment is
your chance to have your contribu
tion count at Christmas time. Don't
put it off. because it takes a long
time to get these kits delivered, and
your contributions to-day will just
about connect with what we call over
here the "holidays." That word is
pretty hard to use when you apply it
to No Man's Land. All the holidays
they're going to get will be those
minutes between fighting when they
can have the consolation of a good
American smoke.
So start that Christmas list of
yours now. Do your soldier shopping
early. Sit down and think how much
money you can afford for this patri
otic enterprise and send it in to us—
make it as much as you can. Kven
a quarter will keep one soldier happy
about a week and you can multiply
this as many, times as your circum
stances afford.
Don't let these boys of ours go
without this small package of cheer
from the folks at home. There is
money enough in the United States
to buy a package for every soldier
that we have in France several times
over, and we count on the citizens of
this city to do their part.
Once more, we ask you to picture
to yourself conditions under which
our American boys are going to spend
this Christmas. Then think how easy
it is for you to do this litle bit. We
krow how you will respond and we
count on every one of you for your
share, small or large.
