Railroads to Get Boats
as Aid in Freight Rush
Washington, March 21.—Read
justment of the coastwise and great
lakes shipping control is under con
sideration by the shipping board and
the railroad administration. The
probability is that the latter will be
given charge of numerous steamers
which are regarded .as primarily
auxiliaries to rail transportation.
By co-ordination of domestic
water and tail movement under one
control, it is believed greater speed
and economy in transportation facil
ities will be obtained, especially in
bulk commodities such as cotton,
which are shipped from southern
ports to New England. A cargo of
1 cotton could reach Boston from Sav
annah in four or five days, while
that many weeks is required to reach
its destination by rail after passing
Washington, A train of steel takes
as long from Pittsburgh to the At
lantic seaboard as from the same
place to Pacific coast shipyards.
Railroad Notes
Both the Philadelphia and Middle,
division paycars started to-day on a
semimonthly distribution of checks
for Pennsylvania railroad employes.
A freight wreck on the Pittsburgh
division of the Pennsylvania rail
road held up traffic for two hours
to-day.
Freight traffic was blocked last
evening in the vicinity of the Penn
sylvania Railroad station by. a de
railed coal car. The latter jumped
the tracks at the cross over switches
leading to the Reading tracks.
Nelson W. Walker, porter at the
office of the superintendent of the
Philadelphia division, Pennsylvania
Railroad, whose smile has been
missed for several days, returned to
work this morning. He has been
confined to his home with a severe
cold. For a while Mr. Walker was
threatened with a serious illness.
His return brought much relief to
his army of friends.
WTiile Brakeman Robert L. Grani
gan. of Swatara, was in the act of
testing a' hand brake on a freight
car at Rutherford, the club he was
using slipped and struck him, break
ing his nose and severely bruising
his face. He was taken to the Har
risburg Hospital.

Daniel Webster was arrested last

tion that the arrested Daniel is no

NAVY BALLOON FALLS
Corporal R. R. Owen, sergeant at
the recruiting station at Blairsville,
Indiana county, wired Lieutenant
Lesher to-day at the local station
that a large observation balloon fell
in Indiana county, and was salvaged
I by him. The balloon is the property
jof the United States Navy, manu
factured by the Goodyear Tire and
Rubber Company. It had left Akron,
Ohio, on its trial flight and descend
| ed at Blairsville. The pilot escaped
uninjured. A man from Ohio was to
come to take charge of the balloon
yesterday.

RAILROADMEN
LIKE GARDENING
Numerous Applications Forj
Plots Along the Middle
Division
Pennsylvania railroad employes are
jumping at the opportunity to start
war gardens on company property.
There will be hundreds of war gar
dens along the Middle division be
tween Marysville and Altoona. Many
Harrisburg employes who own cot
tages will worn gardens between
Marysville and Newport. 1 At least a
dozen plots have already been as
signed.
Application must be made to A. A.
McClellan, chief engineer, at Altoona.
Though It is still very early In the
season and the official notice that
the company would again rent out!
the plots this year was only posted
night before last. Mr. McClellan an
nounced that already two-thirds of
those who cultivated plots last year
hav.e applied again and there arc
enough new applications in to make
up tlie other third.
With the advent of real spring
weather and the spreading abroad of
the notice, coupled with the fact that
the war gardening movement is an
even more vital necessity this year
than last, Pennsy officials expect
that hundreds of applications for
plots will come rolling in for the
next few weeks until the total num
ber may be two or three times as
large as last year. All applications,
on the Middle division, should be
made to the office of Mr. McClellan.
Big Succea* I.n*t Year
"Though only an experiment," said
Mr. McClellan, "the plan proved a
very decided success last year. Near
ly all of the employes who rented
plots met with success, save a few
who picked out very poor pieces of
ground. This year, with the ekperi
ence gained last year, a much bet
ter success is looked for, as the men
now know a great deal more about
hew to care for their gardens.
"Why, some of the men were so
anxious to get their same plots again
this year that they began making
applications for them early in Janu
ary, fearful that they might be
leased to someone else," said Mr. Mc-
Clellan, "but the man who worked a
plot last year has the first right to
it this year and we will not give it
to anyone else unless he gives up his
lease."
The company lias plenty of avail
able tillable land, narrow strips
along the right of way everywhere
and many larger plots owned but not
occupied by buildings or works, and
any of this can be had by employes
at the nominal rental of $1 per acre.
Employes also have first chance, but.
it outsiders want land, they can also
get it, though they will be charged
regular commercial rental.
Dry Forces Beaten
in New York Senate
Albany, X. Y., March 21.—Defeat
of the ratification by the New York
legislature of the prohibitory amend
ment to the Federal Constitution was
virtually accomplished last night
■when the dry forces in the Senate
on a test vote, in which all their
power was displayed, lacked a ma
jority. The vote was 2 4 for the
ratification clause and 25 opposed.
Twenty-six votes were necessary for
success.
RICHCREEiTwiNS
FIGHT FOR LIFE
[Continued from
eluding his aged father, who attend
ed both trials, came forward and
left the room with the young man.
The jury retired yesterday after
noon shortly before 5 o'clock, and
was out until an early hour this
morning when the verdict was reach
ed. The jurors had been instructed
to bring in a sealed verdict.
Court convened last evening at 8
o'clock and word was received that
some of the jurors wanted further
instructions. District Attorney Mi
chael E. Stroup and James A. Stran
ahan and A. Ross Walter, the latter
two defending Richcreek, were call
ed and the prisoner was brought into
court. A few minutes later the jury
entered and Judge A. W. Johnson
then explained more fully the defini
tion of murder of the first degree and
second degree and manslaughter.
Interesting Trial
The trial of young Richcreek
has been an interesting one as the
prosecution was forced to prove
guilt without having a witness of
the crime when it was committed.
The contention of the Distr.Vt At
torney's office in investigating and
handling the case was that the mur
der was committed with intent to
rob.
The defense claimed accidental
shooting, Richcreek maintaining at
both his former trial and the present
one that he shot at a bird, the charge
striking Silberman who was on the
other side of the canal towpath near
Middletown.
With the exception of the refusal
of Judge Johnson to admit as evi
dence a number of targets which had
been hit by using the shotgun which
Richcreek had fired, the second trial
differed but little from the first.
It is not believed that any of the
new murder cases on the list will be
reached during the present session
of court. •
One of these, the case against
Charles Kyler, charged with murder
ing a railroader from the west end
of the city, was listed to be heard
by the Grand Jury to-day. The other
two cases against two colored de
fendants, William Evans and An
drew Carey, will be heard by the
Grand Jury to-morrow. Both of the
murders occurred in Steclton last
month.

"A. phcum for three days,
DuiiitcrouN beginning Monday, with

title indicates, it is of
startling human interest, dealing with
the subject, woman, and above all, a
dangerous one. Its story ho.lds the
spectators breathless from the rise to
the fall of the curtain. It is said to
be full of heart interest, dramatic cli
maxes and contains a delightful vein
of comedy running throughout the
entire play and serving to relieve the
intense dramatic tension of startling
situations that follow each other in
rapid succession.
The headliner at the Majestic the
last half of this week is a farcical
skit entitled "Childhood
The Days," presented , by six
Miijentlc people. The opening scene
Hill is a schoolroom with five
old men sitting at desks,
while the other member of the. com
pany, who is a young woman, is seen
as the teacher. The act was built for
laughing purposes only, and it serves
its purpose well, for from the rise of
the curtain to the fall of the curtain
•the audience. is kept in constant
laughter. It is a good comedy act
and is certain to be enjoyed by all.
Newhoft and Phelps, old favorites, are
also on the bill. They are called the
Harmonizing Duo, and prove to the
audience that they are deserving of
the title when they offer a lively sing
ing act that scores a decided hit. Lady
Sen Mei, Japanese singing comedienne,
is another pleasing number on the
program. She is a young woman of
striking personality and possesses
marked talent. Dingley and Norton
present a lively instrumental offering.
They have a good selection of musical
numbers which consists of semi
classical and popular airs, and they
play them In a pleasing manner. The
closing act on the bill is Martini and
Maximlllian, presenting burlesque
magic. It is a good comedy number,
and during the progress of the act
quite a few secrets are revealed to
the audience.
The internationally famous co-
Btars, Francis X. Bushman and Bev
erly Bayne, will ap-
Ruslimnn nnd pear at the Colonial
Itayiic at Theater to-day only

"Under Suspicion."
The picture Is one of thrills and ro
mance, and Is the kind of picture the
public in general enjoys. From a mil
lionaire idler to a cub reporter is
fiuite a drop, especially when you con
sider the social side of it, but a young 1
| man makes this change to prove to
I h<! ,Ie !° v es that lio can "make

at the Regent Theater for tile last
i times to-day, she delighted the audi
lence which saw her perform yester
day. Written in 1880, Frances liods
json Burnett's story is still extremely
popular, and the hook has had to be

shares honors with Mr. Keid in this
production. Together, they have made
one of the most appealing photoplays
of tke year.
Kitty Gordon's new World-Picture,
"The Wasp," is an action picture, a
speed production.
Kitty Gordon It is one' of the
al (he Victoria fastest, most grip
p i 11 g attention
riveting pictures in which this beau
tiful and accomplished actress lias
ever appeared. The Victoria Theater
is fortunate in having secured this
superior production for showing to
day. Much of the action centers
around an effort made by a German
spy to blow up the war munitions
factory owned by the father of Grace
Culver, the central figure in the play.
The: role of Miss Culver is superbly
played by Miss Gordon and the char
acterization she gives this role is one
of the very best that she lias yet
given the screen. As is always the
case in Miss Gordon's plays she wears
a great variety of gorgeous and ex
pensive gowns in this production, and,
as "The Wasp" has been lavishly
staged and the story is all that could
be desired, it is evident that in this
Picture the film fans have supreme
screen entertainment. Tom Mix. in the
breezy western drama, "Six Shooter
Andy," will be shown to-morrow.

TRY MAGNESIA FOR
STOMACH TROUBLE
It Neutralizes Stomach Acidity,
Prevents Food Fermentation,
Sour, Gassy Stomach and
Acid Indigestion.
Doubtless if you are a sufferer from
indigestion, you have already tried
pepsin, bismuth, soda, charcoal, drugs
and various digestive aids and you
know these things will not cure your
trouble—in sonic cases do not even
give relief.
But before giving up hope and de
ciding yrtu a' a chronic dyspeptic
just try the effect of a little bisurated
magnesia—not the ordinary commer
cial carbonate, citrate, oxide or nfilk,
but the pure bisurated magnesia
which you can obtain from practical
ly any druggist in either powdered
or tablet form.
Take a teaspoonful of the powder
or two compressed tablets with a lit
tle water after your next meal, and
see what a difference this makes. It
will instantly neutralize the danger
ous, harmful acid in the stomach
which now causes your food to fer
ment and sour, making gas, wind,
flatulence, heartburn and tho bloated
or heavy, lumpy feeling that seems
to follow most everything you eat.
You will llnd that provided vou take
a little bisurated magnesia immediate
ly after a meal, you can eat almost
anything and enjoy it without any
danger of pain or discomfort to fol
low and moreover, the continued use
of the bisurated magnesia cannot In
jure the stomach in any way so long
as there are any symptoms of acid In
digestion. G. A. Gorgas.—Advertise

this terrible disease left him helpless
and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
tree from rheumatism until the ac
cumulated impurities, commonly can
ed uric acid deposits, were dissolved
il. the joints and muscles and expell
ed from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and
tinally compounded a prescription that
quickly and completely banished every
sign and symptom of rheumatism
i from his system. •
Ho freely gave his discovery to
others who took it. with w'lat might
be called marvelous success. After
years of urging he decided to let suf
ferers everywhere know about nis
discovery through the newspapers.
Geo. A. Gorgas has been appointed
agent for Allenrhu in this vicinity
with the understanding that he will
freely return the purchase money to
all who state they received no benefit.

What To Do When
Nerves Go Wrong
A SPECIALIST'S AUVICE
Men and women who suiter from
weak nerves, who tiro easily, can't
sleep, have brain fag, low vitality,
general weariness, loss of strength,
dulled ambition, lack of will power,
or any of those symptoms that so
surely arise from poor, unsteady, un
strung nerves, or nerve force run low,
should try eating a little Margo with
their meals for a few days and note
results. This preparation is the
greatest ginger-up stimulant and
nerve vitalizer ever known for put
ting the good old "pep," ambition,
courage and real vital energy into a
tired, run-down and shattered nervous
system.
Here is a test worth trying. The
next time you feel tired, blue, or tvhen
your nerves are fairly crying out, rat
a Margo nerve tablet. Then wait for
just ten minutes, and note results.
Margo seems to go straight to the
nervo cells and starts work the min
i.te it reaches them. It brings a ten
minute change from that awful dull,
weak, lazy, don't-give-a-bang feeling
to brightness, strength, clear headed
ness and courage. It calms and
strengthens the nerves of people who
get the "jumps" and tidgets, and
gives them poise, power and tremend
ous reserve energy. Margo nerve tab
lets are absolutely harmless, contain
no dope or habit-forming drugs, and
are always safe, easy, pleasant and
efficient. Kennedy's Medicine Store
and many other leading drug
gists in Harrisburg and vicinity
sell it in large boxes—4o tablets to a
package—on an absolute guarantee
of satisfaction, or money back.—Ad
vertisement.
