18 ALL HARRfSBURG OBSERVES VICTORY rContinued from First Pae.] that something; must be doing, and hustled to the telephone. But that did little good. Apparently everybody in Harris burg thought of the telephone at the same time. It was worse than a Are. The night force of exchange girls was simply swamped. The switchboards were a blaze of light and some of the girls became hysterical under the strain of trying to keep up the ser vice. They found it impossible and it was a half hour before the con gestion was relieved. The callers wanted the n<wspaper and telegraph offices and when they learned what had happened they took to the streets and many of them remained out all night, parading and cheer ing. Big- Parade The police fo.Tce got a band to gether and in a very short time an inpromptu parade? was formed in which hundreds of wildly enthusias tic men and woman, from all walks of life an 1 in every stage of olre.-p and undress, took part. Up and down town they marched and cheered and waved iftigs until from pure weariness they could go no longer and one by one dropped out and went home. Mill Forces I)o.nioralV<l Among those who shouted .loudest and celebrated the most were work men from the Penn-Harris hotel buiiding. Forgetting the necessity for a good hotel in the city, they laid down the trowel and ran to join the parade. Many of the mfils which do night work were demora lized when men learned the cheer ing news. There were many ensuing stories told of incidents occurring in the parades. Four men linked arm in arm came up the street running as fast as they possibly could, when they were suddenly halted. They had run into a very stout man. The quartet stumbled and fell and for a few moments there was a free-for all. The crowd for the most part, however, was very good natured amidst the jostling and bumping which attended the big patriotic con clave. "Cannon" was the cry raised when a number of automobiles opened cut outs. The staccato explosions sound ed like a battery of Gatling guns in action. "Some Celebration," Says Mayor Mayor Daniel L. Keister was a prominent figure in the big crowd. "Ah boy, that was some celebration to be arranged in twenty-five min utes," he commented to a Tele graph reporter. "That was some af fair. wasn't it?" "What d'ya suppose, will happen to the stock market?" There were hundreds of speculators who tried to form an opinion. An unfortunate man almost got himself into very serious trouble when he lost his hat on the street. He leaned over to pick it up. put ting up his left hand for balance. Someone in the crowd mistook the movement as an effort to strike a nearby woman and he was assailed by the mob. "Lynch him!" was the cry and when an officer took him in charge they shouted "Let us have him for a minute. Tar and feathers for his!" Hfc was taken to the police station and i/hen it was found his action was Ufttatentional he was dis charged. There wer hundreds of local peo ple in River Park when the bells began ringing. It was but a few minutes until the seats were empty. Traffic rules were suspended and policemen were helpless in their efforts to restore some semblance of ordCK. A staunch patriot came to the Square with a huge American flag. Members of the Municipal and other bands gathered with their in struments and in a few minute 3 a parade was formed. Thousands of American flags were displayed and fro moffice buildings, the tricolor of France and the Stars and Stripes were thrown. Marchers carried small American flags and paraded through the principal streets of the city. Automobile and motor trucks crammed with patriots, paraded the rest of the populace. Among the thousands who wer in the procession were many soldiers and there were other soldiers who lined the streets, waiting eagerly for news from their fellow warriors across the seas. Community Singing Small processions were formed everywhere on the streets, some am bitious marchers leading the parades until the main procession was met and a merger was formed. The big crowd in the Square heard the band play "Keep the Home Fires burn ing" and within a few moments com munity song was under way. There's a Long, Long Trill," "America," The Star Spangled Ban ner," and Alian Sangree's popular song, "Tour Old Uncle Sammy," were roared forth by the crowd. The was accompanied by a band and was under no set leadership. Theaters Closed Theaters closed and actors at the Majestic theater forgot that they wore stage costumes, rushing to the street in their footlight attire. The theater crowds heard the din and came running 1 to swell the mob. '"What's iha news?" was the ijuos tion on everyone's lips and ne<vs paper offices were stormed by eager inquirers. Wild rumors began to ■•irculate in the crowd. It was re lated that the German Crown Prince was captured, the Ivaiser killed and the entire Gorman army had sur rendered. The telephones over the city began ringing and service at the Central offices was demoralized. Tel ephones at the Bolton House, the Senate ajvl all telephones near Mar tlet S-'iiuure were kept busy whan hose v lio could not reach the crowd '.card the rumors and questioned the .iUth. People from throughout the entire city and the suburbs literally poured into the heart of the town. An instance was related of a young man who ran from a Bellevue" Park residence to the center of the city where he could Join the demonstra tion. Street cars were so filled with people that it was utterly impossible for many to get into town. Speed laws were forgotten and motorists drove into the city. People from Penbrook and other suburbs were those who waited for the latest news. When telephone queries from Middletown and Hummelstown re ceived a favorable reply, parades and big demonstrations were organised in those towns. Thousands of those who gathered were intimately connected with those at the front. "God bless those boys! My boy's among them," a gray hatrea mother cried. "I'll bet Jim was with the bunch," said a man who proudly explained to the crowd that he is Jim's brother. Sweet hearts, brothers and sisters stood with the parents of the boys in the trenches, waiting for further word l'rom "over there." "See here, police, I want this ncise stopped. I've got to get some Flecp so I can work to-morrow," an indignant resident shouted to police headquarters at midnight. "Forget sleep, man and be patri otic," he was told. Between the hours of 10 and 12 hundreds of calls were leceived at the police station, the questioners asking for all the late news. FRTtfAY EVENING.
