HOW THIS LITTLE BOY

Garrett, Texas.—"The measles left
my little boy aged nine years in a
very weak, run-down condition —he

cines did not seem to help him, we
finally took him out of school, and
thought he would never be strong

Vinol, and such a change as it has
made in my little boy—it stopped his

There is nothing like Vinol to re- j
store strength, appetite and vim to
pale, sickly children. We strongly
recommend Vinol for this purpose.

"Don't look for the end of the war

How the Longue of the Penn-Harris Hotel Will Be Furnished
. ■-....., „ ■; - \;:- T >: " '/. :
Through the courtesy of the United Hotels Company the Telegraph prints the above etching showing the
longue of the Tutwiler Hotel, at Birmingham. Ala., which is also operated by the United Hotels Company. This
scheme of furnishing gives a fair idea of how tha longue of the Penn-Harris will be furnished in the spsc-ous
corner of the second floor of the building at Third and Walnut streets. All the furniture has been ordered, and
it is expected that there will be no delays in the deliveries. Meanwhile all pcssible speed is being made in the
completion of the building, to the end that it may be opened as early as possible in the fall.
E. A. Johnston, known as "Eddie" to scores of the workmen at the big hotel, has returned to the job
niter a brief absence. Johnston WRS summoned several weeks ago for service in the National Army, but he has
been exempted. He returns to work in co-operation with R. E. Hawes, Harry Gilbert and Louis A. Sholtes, who
are In charge of the work of construction.
MARKETSQUARE
SEES BOXING
Large Crowd Interested in
Fistic Battles Staged For
Recruiting Service
Regular "box-fighting" was to be
seen last night in the very heart of
Market Square and many hundreds
of • Harrisburgers, some bringing
friend wife and children, wended to
the familiar spot where a native son,
Frankie Maguire, scrapped with
Lieutenant Katcher, lightweight
champion of the Marine Corps. The
object of the open-air sparring was
to help in recruiting for Uncle
Sam's famous Marine Corps.
The first bout lasted two rounds
and it was called a draw, with hon
ors even: the finish displaying some
fast, hard in-fighting which stirred
the curious crowd to cheers. In
round one Maguire led off with three
terrific lefts, Katcher responded with
heavy rights and lefts to the body,
slightly troubling Maguire. Ma
guire ducked six perfect lefts, and
led off with a right hook catching
Katcher on the left ear. Katcher
rocked Maguire with a terrific body
blow, Maguire ducked three more
body blows and sent a crashing left
jab to the jaw. Round even.
Round two—Fast opening by
Katcher. Maguire covered and then
started a fusillade of body blows;
Katcher covered well; then drove
Maguire to the railing with a left
hook followed by a smashing right;
Maguire came back quickly and
drove Katcher to the rail with body
jabs; Katcher feigned and Maguire
started another fusillade of blows
only to receive a heart right jab fol
lowed by a terrific body blow, again
taking him to the rail; Katcher
started some fast foot work but
blows had no effect; Maguire left
loose with a left hook rocking Kat
cher. Katcher then started another
body blow drive, but bell interfered.
No decision.
Another Harrisburg ring star,
Sammy Schiff, who recently so scar
ed Joe Palmer that he tried to jump
over the ropes at the Shibe Park
tournament, gave the local fans a
lively entertainment, hooking up
with "Nate" Isaacman, for a three
round go. The latter was consider
ably out-classed, and though always
dangerous, Schiflf easily had the bet
ter of it.

War Crisis at Hand,
Says Premier Hughes
London, June 28, (via Ottawa.)
William M. Hughes, Premier of Aus
tralia, speaking at a luncheon of the
London Chamber of Commerce said
the Allies were facing the supreme
crisis of the war. The next few

dous possibilities. The German mili
tarists fully recognized that they
must achieve decisive victory now
or continue a hopeless struggle
against daily increasing odds.
The speech of Dr. von Kuehlmann,
he asserted, was a clear admission
that the recent enemy offensive had
been barren in its gains, and that
military success, if not impossible,
was farther oft than ever, and un
less victory was gained politically,
Germany must prepare for a long
war.
The change in the German tone in
the opinion of Premier Hughes, was
due to a realization of America's
great effort. The Germans also
knew that tha Anglo-French ar
mies were confidently awaiting the
next onslaught, while the much
valued Austrian pffensive had spent

Boy Scout News
TROOP EXPLORES
INTERESTING CAVE
Lads Take Long Hike And
Thoroughly Enjoy
Themselves
The boys of Troop 16 met the first
assistant scoutmaster, hereafter re
ferred to as F. S. H„ at the Square
ut 1.40 Saturday afternoon, and
while waiting for a Middletoyvn car,
who should come along but Mr.
Virgin. He was bombarded with
questions, and answered them in
such an entertaining manner that
we were sorry when the 'M' car
came. We rode as far as we could
for ten cents, got off, and walked
slowly down the road past the ord
nance and aviation depots until we
came to Middletown, straight
through to Kast-Middletown where
we crossed the Swatara and turned
to the left and went up the road
along the creek to Clifton. There
were many raspberries along the
way, as some of the fellows faces
testiHed. At Clifton we went down
to the old lime kiln to get a drink
from that wonderful spring at the
foot of the tree along the creek and
we found most everywhere signs
reading, 'Trespassing For Any Rea
son Whatever, Strictly Forbidden.
We couldn't help wondering why it
was necessary to post such a sign
at such a place. Then when we had
crossed the covered bridge, we hit
the ties to Stoverdale, here we cross
ed the bridge and went through the
camp grounds to the 'Bluff' where
we ate our lunch. While we were
eating and enjoying the wonderful
view, some girls from the office of
the Oliver Chilled Plow Works, who
were spending the weekend at Stov
erdale came along and very gracious
ly stopped and talked to us a few
minutes. They had been to the cave
and were on their way back to the
cottage. We haven't seen any of
them since, and more than once
we've wondered if they may have
perished from the extreme cold.
Then* we went to the cave and spent
about an hour in that wonderful
place. The F. S. H. went first with
a rope around his waist and a search
light and we all took hold of the
rope and followed. Why was it
that the fellows in the rear kept
crowding up to the front? We
stuck in the mud, slipped on slimy
rocks and fell round in the dark
until finally we saw the light of day,
and emerged in the field #j.r from
where we entered. Again we hit
the ties, this time to Hummelstown
and just west of that beautiful little
town, a young fellow showed us how
not to ride a horse. He was driv
ing some cows and was sitting on
the horse facing the rear, an auto
mobile came along the horse sud
denly shied, and the next thing we
knew, Mr. man was picking himself
up and limping after the horse. We
hiked to Beaver subway, where we
boarded the car and reached the
Square at 7.30.
'Sixteen' had a good crowd at the
meeting on Monday. The first half
hour was spent drilling right and
left turns in columns of eight. We
got along rather well. Then we went
indoors and elected officers for the
next six months, resulting as fol
lows: President, William Sellers, vice
president, Hudson Hess, scribe. Rus
sel Brown, treasurer, Harold Grand,
chaplain, Ralph Huston. The patrols
were reorganized. Scoutmaster Fort
enbaugh emphasized the importance
of the War Savings Stamp campaign.
Speaking of W. S. S. reminds me that
Joe Machlan phoned in from Wil
liams Grove for a supply of red
cards, we had only a few to send
him. McClintock, how would you
like to hop your wheel and ride to
headquarters for a supply? And
while you are there ask Mr. Virgin
for a few second class blanks, I
thank you.
Next Monday we're going to or
ganize a bicycle patrol, and get our
mobilization plans in order and
polish up for the parade. Every fel
low should be there.
S. P. Hugler,
Scribe.

BROWN SAYS HE
HAS NAMED WEISS
Ex-District Attorney's Selec
tion Not Referred to Sen
• ator Beidleman
Attorney, General Francis Shunk
Brown to-day confirmed reports of
the selectio nof John Fox Weiss, cx
dlstrlct attorney of Dauphin county, !
to be assistant counsel of the Public I
Service Commission at $5,000 per J
year. "I have appointed Mr. Weiss

From a political standpoint the
appointment is interesting as Senator

lieutenant governor and acknowl
edged Republican leader of Daunhin
county, says he was not consulted.
Instead the Governor's office asked
Mayor Daniel 1,. Keister to approve
the appointment.
Mr. Weiss will probably assume
the duties which are thosse of as
sistant to Berne H. Evans, counsel
of the commission, on Monday.

excessive. The trust company ad
vance amounted to from ten dollars
to sixty. Notice was given that prob
ably 100 other concerns and individ
uals would ask leave to intervene

The Commission will call upon the
I company for an answer within ten
1 days.
