Chu ch on ,dy . al .1.
Bishop William McDowell, of a n
ington, D. C., who is to preside at
the sessions, arrived here last eve
ning. At the same time the presid
ing elders (known now as district
superintendents) arrived and went
into executive session in their head
quarters at the Neft House. The su
perintendents who reached here are
the Rev. K. R. Heckman, of Harris
burg; the Rev. Emory M. Stevens,
of Huntingdon: the Rev. J. S. Sous
er. of Shamokin and the Rev. H. I*
Jacobs, of Williamsport.
There are no signs at this time of
any changes in the pastorates of
Harrisburg churches. The Harris
burg ministers are expected to ar
rive tonight or early tomorrow. They
will be accompanied by a number of
lay delegates. It has been twenty
eight years since the Central Pennsyl
vanla Conference met here. The pas
tor of the church in which the ses
sions are to be held is the Rev. J. H.
Dougherty, formerly pastor of Ridge
Avenue Methodist Church, Harris
burg. Several years ago the Rev.
Mr. Dougherty was the conference
host for two years in succession,
while located at Tyrone. It was
easier then, he says, to make plans
for entertainment of the delegates,
for tlie war has made the cost great
er and nearly every Pennsylvania
town is taxed for room for its own
people.
This evening the undergraduates,
who are to begin their examinations
for admission to full membership to
conference, are to start their exami
nations in St. John's (ShurcU. Roll
call will be followed by organization.
Whe Sacrament of the Lord's Supper

bition and Public Morals is to be
observed, with Herbert T. Ames pre
siding. An address, "After Prohibi
tion, What?" will be delivered by Dr.
Clarence True Wilson, of Washing
ton, and Mr. and Mrs. Frank M. War
ing will sing the songs of the New

Prince Lichnowsky
May Be the German
Ambassador to U. S.
Stockholm, March 18.—The Ber
lin correspondent of the Svenska
Dagbladet mentions Prince Charles
Max Lichnowsky, former German
ambassador to Great Britain, as to
probable ambassador to the United
States after peace has been conclud
ed.
Prince Lichnowsky created a sen
sation in 191S when in a long article
he blamed Germany for having start
ed the world war and asserted that
Great Britain did everything pos
sible to avert hostilities. As a result
of this the Prussian House of Lords
expelled him from membership. Re
cently it was reported that Prince
Lichnowsky would head the Ger
man delegation to the Peace Confer
ence.

NEW SCHEME TO DEI'RAfD
Carlisle, Pa., March 18.—Suits
growing out of an alleged new
scheme for securing money from
parents and relatives of soldiers are
pending before Justice Eckels here.
Three charges of obtaining money
under false pretense have been

sons bringing the suits Boward rep
resented himself as securing orders
for enlargement of pictures of sil
diers at $4.98 each, he claiming, it
is stated, that the United States
government would pay $5 towards
the cost of each. He is claimed to
have received a number of advances

WANTS BETTER
LIGHT SERVICE
People of Marysvillc Com
plain That Dangerous Sub-
Way Is Left in Darkness
Marysvillc, Pa.. March 18. —The
Marysville street 'lighting service,
furnished by the Juniata Public
Service of Newport, is de
clared to be unsatisfactory
ville citizens. Recently on two suc
cessive evenings the long subway be
neath the preference freight yards
of the Pennsylvania Railroad was
entirely without lights, endangering
the safety of persons passing through
the subway and laying the borough
open to probable suits. On the fol
lowing day, it is asserted, the lights
in the subway were left burning
throughout the entire day.
The condition is such that the
Marysville Journal asks borough
council to insist on better service
and in the event that it is impossible
to secure that, to take measures for
the construction of a municipal
power plant.
