) The headliner of the Majestic's new
| 1111, the last half of this week, is The
Jolly Tars, a sextet
! si* Jolly consisting of five men
J Tar* at the and a woman, present-
I Majeatlc ing a clever comedy
singing and talking
| number, which they bill as "A Hodge-
Podge of Comedy." The stage setting
jis descriptive of •an ocean-going
steamship with all the appurtenances
usually seen on such a vessel, manned
by the Jolly Tars and supposedly en
route somewhere, as the scene shows
i the ocean on three sides. A woman
passenger makes her appearance,
which causes consternation for a •mo
ment. as they had no idea they carried
a female passenger, flirtatious sail
| ors undertake to make an impression,
i but fail to succeed until the captain
tries his hand and wins. Copying his
tactics, the comedian tries and man
ages to enter into the champagne
class with a capital of thirty cents.
The act is full of funny comedy situa
tions, and there is also excellent sing
| ing furnished by a male quartet.
Grouped around this attraction are:
Harney Williams and Company, in a
laughable one-act farce; Frisco, who
furnishes splendid entertainment on
the xylophone: Patricola and Meyers,
popular duo, in a lively singing and
talking skit, and Turner and Grace,
novelty jugglers.
Admirers of Harold Lockwood
turned out in large numbers at the
Colonial
Hnrold Looknond In Theater yes
••'l'lie Avenging Trail" terday. to see
their favorite
in his latest Metro play, "The Aveng
ing Trail." Another opportunity is
extended to-day to see this picture,
which is the subject of much favor
able comment. There is magnificent
scenery, good acting, an interesting
story, and last, but not least, a popular
star, and these are a pretty good
guarantee of splendid entertainment
along motion picture lines. Mr. Lock
wood gives another of his pleasing
characterizations, that of a man of
the great outdoors, and is ably sup
ported by charming Sally Crute.
The attraction for to-morrow and
Saturday will be Goldwyn's comedy
drama. "Dodging a Million." Mabel
Normand. after a long absence from
the screen, comes hack in all her
glory as the star of this production,
which is described as a play of "mys
tery, love and laughter."
Many of the scenes in "Headin'
South." Douglas Fairbanks' latest
Artcraft picture.
While Filming which will be shown
"Hendln" South'* at the Regent
Theater to-day, to
morrow and Saturday, were taken on
the Mexican border during a time
when trouble was brewing, and close
watch was kept on the hundred
Mexicans who were engaged to take
part in the photoplay. One of the
-Mexicans was suspected of trying to
start an uprising and was shot and
wounded by a Fairbanks cowboy, who
happened to be an Arizona deputy
sheriff. The matter was taken into
court, where it was held that the cow
boy was justified in his action, as his
promptness in squelching the Mexican
had averted a possible riot. However,
this incident cost Fairbanks SSOO for
attorney and doctor fees.
"Headin' South" is full of Mexican
and Western types, who supply the
local color to the vivid border epi
sodes.
The story of "His Robe of Honor"
i sa graphic expose of the methods
used in many
Henry B. Wnlthall in of the larger
"Hla Robe of Honor" cities, where
the bench is
controlled by politics, and gives Mr.
Walthall remarkable opportunity In
the role of the trickster lawyer who
becomes an upright judge under
those innate forces of his character
which are trained and nurtured by
a young woman of high social posi
tion.
The production has been made un
der the direction of Rex Ingram, and
is said to be one of the most preten
tious in which Mr. Walthall has ever
appeared. To get the production au
thentic in every detail it Was necesi
sary to build an exact reproduction
of one of the mammoth courtrooms
which are used by the Supreme Court
of the state of New York. A great
number of the scenes are laid in the
most exclusive drawingrooms of fash
ionable Fifth Avenue, the costuming
of the actors in which proves to be
a veritable fashion show.
"His Robe of Honor" will be shown
for the last time to-day. together with \
another instalment of "Vengeance and i
the Woman." To-morrow William S.
Hart, in "Fearless Eagan," will be the
attraction.

U.S. NEGOTIATES
TO SUPPLY ARMY
THROUGH SPAIN
Lifting of Madrid Embargo on
American War Goods
Believed in Sight
■Washing-ton, Feb. 28.—Rehabili
tation of the Spanish railroad sys
tem is planned by the United States
to make possible the shipment of
large quantities of supplies from
Spain to General Pershing's forces
in France.
An offer of American railway
materials has been made as a part
of negotiations the United States Is
conducting to persuade Spain to lift
her embargo against the shipment
of goods into France, placed, ac
cording to the Spanish government,
because of the broken-down condi
tion of her railroads.
While a final agreement has not
been signed closing of the negotia
tions is near, it is said, and Spain
again has been notified all Span
ish ships held In American ports are
fi-ee to sail as soon as they dis
charge the parts of their cargoes for
which licenses have been denied or
revoked. It was reiterated there is
no disposition to hold Spanish ships
to exert pressure on the negotiations.
Some six Spanish steamships and
half as many sailing ships are now
in American ports.
Bid For Spanish Tonnage
The American government, it was
learned to-day, in its latest proposal
to Spain has asked for the use of
considerable Spanish tonnage on
terms similar to those by which it
obtained ships owned by northern
European neutrals. This tonnage
would be paid for at a high rate and
for the most part would be used by
the United States in nonhazardous
trades.
The War Trade Board's system
for reducing imports calls for a con
siderable cut in the importation of
Spanish products. As the American
government's own needs and those
of its associates in the war will ab
sorb most of the export commodities
produced in the United States, ex
pos to Spain also will be limited.
This, in the view of officials, should
release a number of Spanish ships
now plying between the United
States and Spain which the Amer
ican government could charter.
Spain Cut Off From Materials
The Spanish railroads have been
in poor condition for a long time.
Cut off to U large extent from ma
terials to make repairs, the govern
ment has been unable to keep the
roads efficient. This situation was
given by the Spanish government as
its reason for refusing to ship any
thing into France.
The embargo stopped the ship
ment o' mules, blankets and other
supplies General Pershing had or
dered. The United States will let
Spain have general railroad sup
plies and particularly parts to put
Spanish locomotives in good repair.
A shipment of lubricating oil already
has been authorized.
The agreement proposed by the
United States would give Spain
adeqyate supplies of cotton and
petroleum and in addition would
provide for the export of such other
commodities as the United States
feels it can spare.
The United States, it is declared,
asks in return no unreasonable as
sistance. Officials feel that in
sparing some of its most greatly
needed commodities all the neutrals
with whom it is conducting negotia
tions should be liberal in their com
mercial concession.
King Alfonso has taken a per
sonal interest in the negotiations be
tween the United States and Spain
and has helped smooth over differ
ences.
The friendly action of Spain in
assuming charge of American in
terests in Germany, it is declared,
has influenced the American gov
ernment toward adopting a liberal
policy.
Douglas Fairbanks
in "Headin' South"
Douglas Fairbanks, the athlete, and
acrobatic star, will appear at the Re
gent Theater to-day. to-morrow and
Saturday irt his newest Artcraft pro
duction, "Headin' South." The story
was written by Allan Dwan, chief
director of the Fairbanks studios,
and directed by Arthur Rosson under
the author's supervision. The pic
ture comes to Harrisburg direct from
initial showings in Philadelphia and
New York, where it has been heralded
as the best work ever done by the
renowned star.
The film was exhibited for the first
time in these cities the first three days
of this week. On Tuesday morning
one of the leading dramatic critics of
Philadelphia, on the North American,
gave the play three stars. It is the
custom of this critic to rate produc
tions according to their merit by one,
two or three stars. It is unusual that
a production other than one of a stu
pendous character should receive the
stamp of three stars. His Judgment
was similar to the reviews of the
recognized leading critics of the coun
try, namely, those of New York City,
where this film was likewise pro
claimed one of the best of the season
and unquestionably the best in Fair
banks' wonderful career. According
to the decisions of these foremost
ri itics, Harrisburg can expect some
thing of the highest caliber in this
new production.
Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism
Discoverer Tells Geo. A. Gorgas Not
to Take a Cent of An) one's Money
Unless Allenrlm Completely Bau-
Ishcs All Rheumatic I'ains and
Twinges.
Mr. James H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helplea*
and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the ac
cumulated Impurltl®*. communis oa.i
ed uric acid deposits, were dissolved
it. the Joints and muscles and expell
ed from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and
finally compounded a prescription that
quickly and completely banished every
sign and symptom of rheumatism
from his system.
He freely gave his discovery to
others who took It, with w hat might
be called marvelous success. After
years of urging he decided to let suf
ferers everywhere know about nis
discovery thrpugh the newspapers.
Geo. A. Gorgas has been appointed
agent for AUenrhu in this vicinity
with the understanding that he will
freely return the purchase money to
all who state they received no benefit

war Is said to have been influential
in bringing about the negotiations.
Officials here refuse to discuss this
subject for publication, but it is un
derstood that so far as America is
concerned the proposition when first
broached was not wholly acceptable,
though the exchanges on the subject,
which are still in progress, may re
sult in modifying the government's
attitude.
Accumulated at Vladivostok are
military supplies of all kinds, much
of American manufacture and even
greater quantities of Japanese origin,
which was delivered long before the
Bolsheviki took possession of the
Russian government.
Would Aid (Vormans
The Stevens commission of Ameri
can engineers made extraordinary ef
forts to improve the facilities of the
Siberian railroad so that these stores
coutd be transported westward for
the use of the Russian army, on the
German and Austrian fronts. A good
deal of accumulation was removed,
but great quantities remain on the
docks and in warehouses and even in
the open, both at Vladivostok and at
points westerly on the railroad. The
principal concern to the allies is the
danger that the stores shall fall into
the hands of the. Germans, who may
make their delivery one of the condi
tions of the peace treaty which they
are about to compel the Bolsheviki
to sign.
This situation is regarded by the
Japanese as warranting the adoption
of some measures to secure these
stores, even if this involves military
action on their part.
They are willing to have the co
operation of the Entente and Ameri
can forces, and the problem before
the cobelllgereant chancelleries Is
whether Japan shall be allowed to
proceed singlehanded if a campaign
in this quarter is begun, or whether
there shall be joint operations.
Looking to the future, it has been
argued that there should be a com
bination movement, so as to avoid
any such question as to the ultimate
disposition of occupied territory in
Siberia as might follow the exclusive
entry of anv one country.
Ships Arc Ijicking
From the tone of the discussion of
this subject in official Washington, it
appears that while the Entente gov
ernments incline favorably to a joint
campaign with Japan in Siberia, they
are faced with the obstacle that prac
tically none of them have any troops
or ships available for an Asiatic cam
paign.
This statement does not apply to
America, which not only has some
powerful cruisers with large crews
and marine contingents now in Asia
tic waters, but, in addition, has about
20,000 troops in the Philippines and
two full battalions, about ?00 strong,
in China and on the railroad, where
they could be rushed quickly into
Siberia.
While this whole American force
would be insignificant compared t6
Japan's great naval and military re
sources at the scene, the participation
of the American troops in the cam
paign would serve to maintain its
international character.
The Russian representatives In
Washington strongly disapprove of
any campaign in Siberia conducted
under Japanese auspices, even
though there be joint operations,
urging the belief that the Bolsheviki
elements struggling for control in
Vladivostok and along the Siberian
railroad will never permit the mili
tary stores to pass into German pos
session, and that they can be de
pended upon to prevent the seizure
of railway stations by the German
prisoners of war, who are reported
to have been given their liberty by
the Siberian local authorities.

to be a dangerous character, and
treasonable to the United States, it
is likely that he will be interned
until the war is over.
If it is found that his pro-German
sentiments are not dangerous, it is
likely he will be allowed to proceed
on his way, while a watch over his
actions throughout his stay in this
country will toe maintained.
About to Leave
Liebig was detained and arrested
shortly after he boarded a Pennsyl
vania railroad train to take his de
parture 'from the city. Since his
dismissal from the Technical facul
ty, he has presumably been unable
to find a place for himself in Har
risburg, and was leaving the city to
try his fortunes elsewhere. It is
even reported that the German pro
fessor has had considerable trnuble
finding lodgings, because of the pop
ular objection to his sentiments.
• Liebig is a naturalized citizen of
America, born in Germany. He is
55 years old, and came here last De
cember frbm Suffolk, Conn., to fill
the vacancy In the Tech faculty
caused by the death of Prof. Ham
ilton. He was dismissed from the
faculty February 13. at a special
school board meeting, in which his
pro-German utterances during his
stay on the faculty were reviewed
against him.
Unpatriotic Remarks
It was declared at the time that he
was dismissed from the Faculty at
Technical High school, that chief
among his pro-German sentiments
was the statement that "No Ameri
can could teach in Germany." When
Superintendent Hamilton, of Alle
gheny. addressed the teachers here
on the difference between American
democracy and German autocracy,
the German professor is reported to
have taken excepUon to his state
ments, saying that his speech was
not correct as to facts. A refusal
to declare himself for either Ger
many or America in answer to a
direct question regarding his senti
ments. was another of his actions
that led to his dismissal.

STEELTON STRONG;!
HERE TOMORROW
Hard Battle Tomorrow Night
on Chestnut Street Floor;
Reserves to Play
The Technical high school basket
ball squad will play one of the most
important contests of Its schedule at
Chestnut Street Auditorium to-uior
row evening when the first and sec
ond string of Maroon players will
be pitted against the Steelton high
school quintets. The second team
game will begin at 7.30, and will be
followed by the Varsity attraction,
and concluding the evening's enter
tainment a special program of danc
ing will be staged.
When the Tech teams visited
Steelton February 8. the second
team was defeated by a score of 33
to 19. However, the Maroon Var
sity won laurels by defeating the
Blue and White 33 to 15. Follow
ing the game last evening with York
Captain Coleman and his teammates
are determined to show the come
back spirit and even the count with
Tech for the lacing received at Fel
ton Hall.
While Steelton Is expected to give
Tech a hard battle, the Maroon fol
lowers have confidence in the quin
tet to feel sure of another conquest.
The fact that the team has won 10
out of 12 games has made the Tech
student body rather "cocky" in their
estimation of the Maroon quintet.
The team has rolled up 478 points
in the dozen games—almost 40 points
per contest. In the meantime their
opponents have scored 257 points.
This is by far the best record ever
made by a Tech quintet. With most
of the members belonging to the
second year class, the Walnut street
school should have a good team for
several years to come, as the squad
will remain almost intact. McCon
nell will referee the league contest,
while Killinger will be in charge of
the second team affair. Th line-ups:

SILTS RELIEVES
HCHIH6 KIDHETS
We eat too much meat, which
clogs Kidneys, says
noted authority
If back hurts or Bladder bothers,
stop all meat for
a while
When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been
eating too much meat, says a well
known authority. Meat forms uric
acid which overworks the kidneys In
their effort to filter it from the blood
and fhey become sort of paralyzed
and loggy. When your kidneys get
slugg.sh and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels;
removing all the body's urinous
waste, else you have backache, sick
headache, dizzy spells; your stomach
sours, tongue is coated, and when
the weather is bad you have rheu
matic twinges. The urine is cloudy,
full of sediment, channels often get
sore, water scalds and you are
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
Either consult a good, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of
Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful In a
glass of water betore breakfast for
a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine. This famous salts is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kid
neys, also to neutralize acids in the
urine so it no longer irritates, thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is a life saver for regu
lar meat eaters It is inexpensive,
cannot injure and makes a delight
ful. effervescent lithla-water drink.

Atlanta Man Gets Year
in Chain Gang For
Attempted Blackmail
Atlanta <3a„ Feb. 28. —Mrs. Mar
garet Hirsch, accused of an attempt
to blackmail $500,000 from Asa G.
Candler, Atlanta's 76-year-old multi
millionaire mayoi, will be placed on
trial hero to-morrow. J. W. Cook,
a local real estate man, indicted
with Mrs. Hirsch was convicted yes
terday of a similar charge and sen
tenced to serve a year on the chain
gang and pay a fine of SI,OOO, the
maximum penalty for the offense.
Witnesses for the prosecution in
cluding Mr. Candler gave testimony
to show Mrs. Hirsch, who Mayor
Candler said he had met through
her charity work activities, visited
Mr. Candler's office ostensibly to
discuss the work. While she was
talking with him.in his office Mr.
Candler said she turned suddenly
and exclaimed that some one was
watching them from the window.
"When he went to investigate, he
told the jury, she removed her hat
and Cook entered the door and
said:
"Our honorable mayor, this is
nice."
Later Mr. Candler said, Cook de
clared lie intended to tell Mrs.
Hirsch's. husband, H. H. Hirsch, an
insurance man. Forest Adair, a
local real estate man, who aided
the mayor in investigating the mat
ter, testified that at a conference
Mrs. Hirsch asked for $500,000 for
herself and $5,000 to pay her hus
band's debts. Cook who took the
litand in his own behalf denied he
had ever asked for money. He told
of seeing Mrs. Hirsch go to the
mayor's office on two occasions and
of watching through the letter slot
in the door. He said he once saw
them in a compromising position.
After sentence was passed Cook's
counsel filed a motion for a new
trial and March 16 was set by the
court for a hearing. Cook was sent
.back to jail in default of $3,000.
