Their chief delight the last week is in making the league leaders look foolish. Last evening they played rings around the Gala huds, walloping- the latter aggre gation by a score of 12 to 1. Thurs day night they trimmed Rosewood, dropping them from first place, and giving the lead to Galahad. Last night's result changed the standing again. Goodiel tossed again for Hick-a- Thrfft and was chiefly responsible for the fine showing of the last team in the league. It is the third straight win for the Pine st.reeters under the management of . Dana Griffin. Goodiel fanned eleven batters last evening, and the evening before he had ten strikeouts to his credit. The victors clinched the contest at the very qutset by knocking the youthful Shay out of the box. He was succeeded by Boatman, and the latter made a good showing, but the damage had already been done. "Uph Minnlch was the heavy artil lery for the "Hickies," clubbing out three two-base hits. Osman clouted one of Shay's fast shoots for a home i un. Winning three contests in one week, after losing nine straight games, has increased the interest of the fans in the "Hickies," and the latter team is expected to make mat ters more interesting for the other teams as the season progresses. Mon day night Reading and Rosewood meet, and first place will go to the team that wins the contest. The lineup and summary: GALAHAD AB. R. H. O. A. E.

TO ENACT A NEW CHILD LABOR LAW Children Swarm Back to Cot ton Mills After Supreme Court Ruling Washington.—A new Federal Child Labor bill backed by leaders in the Child Labor Associations of the country will likely be introduced in the Senate and the House in the next few days. Officials of the or ganizations gathered in Washington to confer in regard to framing such a bill. Prompt action is anticipated. Every effort will be made, it is said, to have the bill pass during the pres ent session that the work already accomplished by the government and the organization already built up for the enforcement of a child labor law may not have to be wasted. That public opinion is behind some form of legislation to protect the children no one doubts. The only question is how to frame a law which more than four of our Supreme Court Judges will hold is constitu tional. The plan most favorably considered here is that of levying upon products in the manufacture of which children under fourteen have been employed a Federal tax so great as virtually to prohibit their manu facture and sale, as in the oleomar garine case where the levying of such a tax by the Federal govern ment has been upheld by the courts. Reports received liere say that the day after the Supreme Court rendered its decision that the Fed eral Child Labor law was unconsti tutional, little children began to swarm back Into the cotton mills of North Carolina and into the glass factories and textile mills of other states. Mrs. Florence Kelley, of the Na tional Consumers' League, com menting on the decision here said: . "Sooner or later we will inevitably have to have an amendment to the Constitution which will leave no doubt in the minds of any one as to the power of the Federal govern ment to enact laws establishing standards for our workers. The field of labor is our front line of trenches." Keep Up Colleges in War Says Chancellor Brown New York. —American colleges and schools have been too soft, Chance!- Jor Brown of New York University, said in his address at the sixty fourth annual commencement. Af ter emphasizing the need of main taining our educational Institutions, through the war, he continued: "It is the self-indulgent and self seeking students who listen with greatest approval to the advice that they should finish their college stud ies. Their more virile and high minded associates are straining at the leash, eager and insistent to have their part in the present conflict. Let jus pitch our college requirements to | the high tone of these more vigorous | and aspiring students." HAIWISBURG eSSftl TELEGRAPH! By TOM A. MARSHALL Fish who are deaf, dumb and blind! The Mammoth Cave of Kentucky contains a continuous succession of marvels. The &11 Wise Creator retired to the bowels of the earth, where in seclusion he created rock formations and living curiosi ties, which men of the past and present generation are permitted to enjoy.- The noble red men who in the early days blazed their way through the intricate caverns, halls and avenues, at all times stood in awe of this creation of nature and attributed the wonderful acoustic properties of the cave to the Great and Evil Spirits which they thought inhabited this cavern. Yet they made the rotunda or assembly room in the cave their winter homes, as the temperature was always found at 54 degrees. The cave is located ninety-six miles south of Louisville, Ky., in a hilly region, known to the natives es knobs, which lay adjacent to the Green river. During the trip south from Louis ville much is seen of typical south ern lite, as it existed before the Civil War. The old plantation cabin, with stone chimney up the side, puncheon floors and clapboard roof. A white washed fence is not the only thing running around the yard, as picka ninnies are much in evidence, being scantily dressed, their clothes usually four sizes too large. When the train whistles it is the signal to stop all work and remain idle until the rum ble of the cars dies away in jthe dis tance. Matt Bransford Jr. was my colored gbide, who piloted me into the cave, through the intricate un derground streets and alleys, halls and chambers, supported by Corin thian pillars and columns, until we arrived at the banks of the river, the home of blind white and NATION NEEDS WOOLQUICKLY Agricultural Director Assures Owners Government Is Acting in Good Faith A great deal of uncertainty exists in the minds of our farmers regard ing the sale of the wool which is now being clipped, says F. R. Ste vens, Agricultural Director, in his letter to farmers, and I am free to confess, after reading carefully the regulations issued by the Federal government, and also abstracts made from tljese regulations, he continues that there are still several questions in my own mind as to just how the wool to be quickly apd economi cally gathered from the farmers and handed over to manufacturers. The government has fixed a price on wool by grades, just as it did in wheat, and the sales will be made based upon the quality of the fleeces. Many grades of wool are established, and a price fixed for each grade. The War Industries Board has gone still further, and designated a sys tem by which the wool is to be gathered, the • general scheme of which is as follows: Approved dealers in wool have been selected in Portland, Oregon, Chicago, New York City, St. Louis, Boston and Philadelphia. These are the only agencies authorized to sell wool to the government or to manu facturers of woolen goods. These same dealers are authorized to buy wool direct from farmers when these farmers have 16,000 pounds or more. Farmers can combine their wool clipping until It aggregates this amount, and BO sell direct to these dealers. It is obvious, however, that even this system alone would not immedi ately gather up the wool clip of the country, and so the regulations pro vide for local dealers who may pur chase wool and sell direct to these approved agents In the cities men tioned, and a commission of one and one-half per cent, is allowed these dealers, which commission will not come out of the price to the farmers, and it. therefore, may he expedient for many farmers to sell direct t<f the local dealer. In this way, the war industries board has endeavored to establish a system by which few dealers will hiyidle the wool, and thelr commissions are very light. • There seems to be no provision by which the wool may be oflic'iall.v graded before It leaven the hands of the farmers, and therefore, the farm era cannot tell exactly what price he will f?et for this wool when it leave? his hands. A provision is made, however, by which.he may receive seventy-five per cent, of the appar ent value, and leave the adjustment of the rest after the final grading has taken place. Our country Is In need of wool. craw fish of which I had seen so much written. The crawiish that 1 saw were about three and a half inches long, known to scientists as Amblyopis spelaeus, "weak-eyed cave dwellers" or tish without eyes, they < ore indigenous to the Mammothl Cave, and it is claimed have attained a length of eight inches. They are ( the denizens of darkness, shaped much like a "dogfish," with a catfish head, no semblance of eyes can be 1 found. The crawfish have claws and feed upon aquatic crustacea. The blind white tish live upon the spawn of the rawfish or the young of its own species. The blind iish locate with small feelers and are extremely susceptible to jar or jconcusslon. vi brations immediately* putting them in motion. The cave fauna or fish with atrophied eyes have fully estab lished a blind fauna In this under ground stream. 'Blind as a bat," they are equipped With feelers for locating food and sensitive nerves which protect them through vibra tions. Both crawfish and white fisli are of a light pink color, and may be seen along the shores of Echo river. This is a black, sluggish stream 360 feet below the earth's surface and directly under the hotel. You are surrounded at all times by Egyptian darkness, weird shadows are cast by your open lantern lights and you at all times anticipate a meeting with Charon, who will vol unteer to .ferry you across the River Styx. It is uncanny from start to finish. You fishermen or anglers, don't go to the Echo river equipped with rod, reel, dry fly, plug or live bait, you will not get a rise from the deaf, dumb and blind fish of the Mammoth Cave, your only means of capture is the dip-net; you will then have a specimen which will occupy your time in studying this marvel of the aquatic world —the- white fish without eyes, denizens of Echo river in the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky. FONCK, THE NEW "ACE OF ACES' In Young Frenchman Alios Have Skillful and Deadly Airman Paris Not since Guynemer, the | "Hawk," was shot down last winter have the Allies had such R skilful and deadly airman as yOung Rene Fonck, who recently brought down six German planes in one day, an un paralleled feat. He is now known as the "Ace of Aces." "I am going out to avenge Chaput," declared Fonck, Chaput having been killed the day before and having been a famous and popular ace and friend of Georges Carpentier, the French heavyweight boxer, and of his comrades in the air service. In a few minute!) Fonck met a squadron of six German planes. With in six minutes he had sent three of them hurtlfhg to earth in flames. Later the same day he encountered nine German planes and downed three of them. Lieutenant Fonck began flying a year and a half before the war, at the mature age of 16. When the war began he was able to start as a pilot observer, although he did not become a chaser until 1916. He brought down hi# first enemy airplane Au gust 6, 1916, since having accounted for forty-one other planes, reckoning only those credited under the strict standard followed by the French . His wonderful success and skill are counted not only by the number of machines he has smashed, but by the still more extraordinary fact, that his own machine never had been hit by a' bullet. That, means that besides the clev erness with which he maneuvers to get at the man he is attacking he has a positive genius for deciding when to strike and when not to strike, using his judgment as well as his mastery of the acrobatics of fly ing to choose the right moment for assailing his quarry or retiring. He is a wonderful shot, and in his last affair he made six direct hits out of 50 shots. The daring young Frenchman has fought a good deal with the Ttrit.ish, for whom he has a great admiration. He has two British decorations in addition to the Croix de Guerre and the Cross Of the Legion of Honor. Ho is described as extraordinarily mod ern. frank and llkahle, Just a lolly open faced slightly built boy without a particle of affectation or vanity. The present flip must l>e gathered quickly and economically, regardless of the confusion which may be caused in changing the system of gathering up the wool of the coun try. i There Is no doubt but that the j government 1 acting in perfect good ! faith, and X believe that It is the iduty of us all to respond In that same good fnith In the confidence I that the little mistakes that will occur will he adjusted as SOP.I ;U possible.

Lebanon trimmed Steelton on her last visit here, and Manager Cock ill's battlers were out to even up. A loud howl of joy and confidence rang out when Edward Plank, of-Get tysburg and other famous spots, leis urely cranked up his high-priced south wing and gave evidence of taking part in the important bickering.

Willis and Jones Out For Governor Columbus, Ohio. —Both former Gov ernor Frank B. Willis and former State Chairman Kdwin Jones have •declared themselves candidates for • the Republican nomination for Gov ernor, filing their statements with the Secretary of State. Both have been careful to secure representa tives' support. Jones is on a "win the-war" platform and the same sort of declaration Is made by Wil lis, who says that he is running In response to many unsolicited re quests. In part, Willis said: "The supreme question before us is the winning of the war. If nominat ed and elected Governor, it will be my sincere determination to marshal and dedicate the resources of the state that we shall give the most thorough co-operation to the Nation al Administration and to other state administrations, regardless of their politics, to the end that American arms shall achieve tlie only peace satisfactory, a peace baaed upon overwhelming victory over the Prus sian powers of darkness. "As the war will enlarge the world's freedom, we must provide so there will come a larger recognition of the rights of labor, a less sus picious and a more cordial treatment of the needs of legitimate business and greater attention t? our agricul tural interests. "I favor the adoption of the state prohibition constitutional amendment and the ratification of the similar amendment to the Constitution of the United States." James M. Cox, Dayton newspaper I publisher and Democratic Governor ; of Ohio, announced his candidacy for re-election at the November election. He announced that because of war conditions he would make no cam paign.
