the murder of Major William R.

Three incidents were given in

| is a ward of the Johnsons, was sit-
I ting upon a couch in their home and
Major King, entering the room , sat
beside her and patted her hand.
A pair of pajamas belonging to
Major Horan were left in the John
son's home to be sent home Major
King suggested, according to the
testimony,, that Miss Osborne put
I her name in the coat so that Mrs.
lloron would become angry.
Upon another occasion it was
testified. Major King entered the
! bedroom of Mrs. Johnson, where
she and Miss Osborne were sitting.
| He asked Mrs. Johnson to thread a
: needle for him. This was mention
ed at the dinner table that evening
! and Johnson, it was testified, became
angry.
Mrs. Johnson in her testimony said
Major King always was agreeable
and polite to her and to Miss Esther

Gideons Seek Help
in Buying Bibles For
New Penn-Harris Hotel
William S. Essick, who is head in
Ilarrisburg of the Gideons, the Chris
tian Commercial Travelers Associa
tion of America, has received per
mission of the Penn-Harris hotel
management to place a Bible In each
room of the new hotel. Mr. Essick
to-day sent out a plea to the churches
of the city to aid him in the pur
chase. The Gideons have placed
copies of the Bible in hundreds of
thousands of hotel rooms throughout
the country.
"We want the Penn-Harris to be
as up-to-date as an# hotel in the
country," said Mr. Essick to-day, "and
the last touch will be the addition of
a Bible to the furnishings of each
guest room. The Gideons have been
instrumental in placing Bibles in
hotels throughout the country and
Harrisburg, headquarters of the
state camp, must be included. We
need help and I ask the churches of
the city to aid in raising the neces
sary money."
Fuel Situation in
Dauphin Fast Becoming
Serious; Big Shortage
Dauphin, Dec. 19.—The coal situa
tion in Dauphin is serious. Many
families have little fuel in their bins
and others have none. "We invite
the Fuel Administration to send rep
resentatives to make an inspection of
the cellars of the town,' said .Free
man C. Gerberich to-day," and I in
tend to lay the matter again before
the auNiosities to-day. A cold snap
or a blizzard would find Dauphin in
a very bad way and I hope for some
relief before that occurs.'
Farmer and Daughter

nants of the bedding when the flames :

SOMETHING ATTEMPTED
Two acquaintances chanced to meet,
and during the conversation that fol
lowed one of them took the other to
task for the latitude in boasting that
he allowed his wife.
"Pay. Jack." said he. "why on earth
do you permit your wife to go round
telling the other women that she has
made a man of you? You never hear
my wife say anything like that."
"No." remarked Jack, with a merry
chuckle, "but I have heard her say on
more than one occasion that she had
tried her hardest."
