THE WORLD WAR
College Club Hears Dr. Raig
uel Give Vivid Description
of Work Well Done
"I-ooked to mo as though the old
state of Pennsylvania was lickin' the
Germans lone-hand!"
With this half-whimsical remark.
Dr. George Karle Haiguel, traveling
companion of Burton Holmes, gave
a rattling, brisk talk at the Oivie
Club this afternoon to members of
the College Club, who had many
of the Civic Club members as
guests, so that the attractive au
ditorium was tilled. Mrs. John C.
Stine. president, introduced Dr.
Haiguel as traveler and lecturer, re
cently returned from France and
Italy and now on the point of go
ing to Japan. China and Liberia.
The compliment io Pennsylvania
caused a perfect racket of applause
from the audience and Dr. Haiguel
went on to tell how in his minute
canvass he found Pennsjl\anians
everywhere, teaching the 1 rench
how to hustle and putting the Hun
on the run. He encountered offi-,
oers and just plain Yanks every-1
where- —General Biddle. General At-|

Groomo. of the State Police, was.
omnipresent in developing the mill

Dr. Haiguel differed drastically

tillery that he speedily retired with
heavy losses.
In the attack near Bolshoia Ozera

time in cutting telephonic communi

the front at a point about two miles
east of that village, and twelve miles
west of Odozerskaia, but were later

Final Efforts Being Made
to Collect Clothing Quota
Despite the fact that there are
j only four tons of clothing in tha
■ hands of the receiving committee
| of the Red Cross clothing campaign.
I it :s believed the local campaign will
go over the top. The quota for this
I district is thirty-five tons. '
Red Cross officials stated to-day
, that no reports have been received
' from the many auxiliaries. "The
! auxiliaries and branches are ship
ping their supplies direct to head
quarters. and we do not yet know
how manj tons they have sent." was
the way workers expressed them
selves- this morning. To them the
outlook is rosy and they feel safe in
s-a; ins that the district will secure
its thirty-five tons.
Contributions will be received at
the campaign headquarters in the
Donaldson building.

Bolshevik base, with which it is
connected only by a winter road
which is virtually useless in the
spring.
Along the Ovina and Vega fronts
the situation is reported unchang
ed.
Bolshevik troops, after a heavy
bombardment Sunday of the allied
positions on the railway front and
south of Odozerskaia, attacked, at
1.30 o'clock in the afternoon. The
attack was repulsed completely by

Analysis of the vote for Mayor in

Attorney, drew heavily from the
normal Republican vote, while Fitz

vote. Following are the figures for
the six Mayoralty candidates:

Cnmpnigii Most Bitter
The campaign was perhaps the
most bitter every contested in Chi
cago. Partisanship, religious and
racial feeling resulted in demon
strations toward the close to an ex
tent that frequently called for po
lice interference.
The vote on prohibition, "shall
Chicago e dry territory?" was won
1 the wets without contest by the
drys. The i ret urns on this propo
sition showed:
Men Women Total
Drv ... 67,707 76,325 144.032
Wet ... 266,529 124,731 391.260
The pronounced wet vote was said
by "personal liberty" leaders to
mark the actual beginning of a cam
paign to repudiate national prohi
bition.
Women Vote Wet
The wet vote was 391,260: the
dry 144,032. Four out of every five
men \oted wet and three out of ev
ery live women did the same.
The Trades Union Liberty League
issued the following statement:
"Through the overwhelming de
feat of the drys. Chicago has spoken
in tones that will ring in the ears
of those subservient lawmakers who
have so cravenly surrendered the
liberty of American citizens at the
dictation of a clique of paid pro
hibition lobyists. There will now he
no letup In the protest against pro
hibition tyranny until the freedom
of the people has been fully re
stored to them. This is the message
Chicago sends to Congress."
Not Surprised at Result
On the other hand. E. J. Davis,
Chicago superintendent of the Anti-
Saloon League, said:
"I am not surprised at the result.
We made no light and asked no one
to vote for a dry Chicago. To have
done so would have been to dis
honor the acts of Congress. The ef
forts of Chicago wets to use Chi
cago results in an effort to terrorize
Congress and the Supreme Court is
little short of seditious."
Dauphin County to Set
Pace in Coat Assessments
Commissioners from Lebanon
county are expected to attend the
special matting to be held to-mor
row by the Dauphin County Com
missioners to hear appeals from the
coal companies against assessments
of 'ands as fixed from the valuations
givtn by T. Ellsworth Davies, of
Scrnnton.
Assessors in the coal land districts
have been notified to be present at
the session to-morrow when repre
sentatives of the coul rompanies will
be hea rd.
County Commissioners to-day re
ceived a petition asking for the ap
pointment of Jacol) M. Willier as tax
collector in Lykens township to suc
ceed Charles Kocher, who resigned
as he is removing from the district.
In the township there are coal lands
which have been valued at more
than ?2,000,000 by Mr. Davies, min
ing engineer.
OVERSEAS CAVALRY POPULAR:
Hhat there will be u great rush to '
fill the few vacancies in the over- 1
seas cavalry is the belief of Major 1
W. E. Shipp. of the army recruiting .
station, himself a cavalry officer.
There are only four cavalry regi- I
ments overseas—the Second, Third. j
Sixth and Fifteenth—and there will j
probably be less than 4,000 vacan- j
cies to be filled. Cavalrymen have i
always felt that their branch of the
service was the most attractive, and
the members of those cavalry units
which were transferred to other
branches of the service during the
war were bitterly disappointed. In
the Regular Army the cavalry has
often been above peace strength and
regulations limiting the number of
men accepted have frequently been
made. It will not he surprising if
the few vacancies in the cavalry will
be filled this month, as there are
many men xvho believe the old say
ing: "Once a Cavalryman, always
a Cavalryman," and are eager to be ]
a mounted trooper again, especially j
if they can serve overseas. Among |
those recently accepted for the cav
alry at the local recruiting station
are: Edgar J. Nicholas, William
Haney, William A. Mlnnter, Howard
W. Apjohn, Albert J. Lloyles. Mal

[GAY DRESS OF CRETANS
IS BIG DRAWING CARD
Kings, Presidents and Premiers Cease to Be Novelty at the
Paris Peace Conference
I'aris, Mar. 26.—Kings, presidents
and premiers have ceased to be a
novelty at the Peace Conference,
but the bodyguard of Premiei
Venizelos of Greece, never fails to
attract great crowds. At the hotel
where the American delegation is
housed and at the foreign ottlco,
Venizelos' approach is always her
alded by the arrival of one of his
Cretan soldiers arrayed more bril
liantly than a comic opera bandit.
The Cretans who escort the
Greek statesman are all more than
six feet tall and apparently have
been chosen from various organiza
tions as a different man appears
daily, and tho same uniform is |
never seen twice. Tho swarthy j
Cretans all have small waxed mus- |
taches twisted into upturned points [
and stand rigidly at attention for I
hours while awaiting M. Venizelos at
the entrance to the hotel or the'
foreign office. The jibes of x sinall|
boys and the jokes of various al
lied soldie; s who gather in won- j
derment' never seem to disturb- the
imperturbable Cretans.

No Need to Increase Rate
on Telegraph Lines
New York, April 2.—Clarence 11.
Mackay, President of the Postal Tele
graph Cable Company being asked re
garding the increase in the telegraph
rates which went into effect to-day by
order of the Postmaster General Burle
son said that If Postmaster Genoral
Burleson would return his lines to the
Postal Telegraph Cable Company at
once that that company would restore
the old telegraph rates at once. Mr.
Mackey's interview was as follows:
"The total telegraph business of the
Country is approximately $80,000,000.
This 20 per cent, increase ordered by
Mr. Burleson means an increase of
$16,000,000 to the telegraph users. That
It is absolutely unnecessary to increase
telegraph rates is shown by the fact
that the representatives of the Post
master General now found we have been
able to hold up our earnings and profits
to expectations and those earnings and
iprofils for the year commencing July
31, 1918 (The date when the Govern-
Iment claims to have taken control) will
!he more than twice the compensation
which Mr. Burleson has given the com
pany during the six months ending
January 31, we have earned more than
the compensations awarded us by Post
master General Burleson for the whole
year. If we had been allowed to keep
our property, and operate it, we would
not have thought of raising the rates,
and there would not have been the
slightest occasion for raising the
rates." *

Miller said to-day. "We have been
having trouble for months with tru
ants. X intend to bring suits in every

Parents in nine of ten cases are to

blame for not seeing that the young

the school authorities bring actions
against them. In a few cases the
children themselves are responsible,
but not very often."

hardly he continued." says the court
that if he took possession' of private
property under what is called his
war powers and used it for other
than war purposes he was acting
within his constitutional powers,
"and it would seem therefore if lie
attempts to use the defendant's tele
phone system for a purpose which
has no relation to the national se
curity and if he may not. us Presi
dent, because of his office, be sub
jected to injunction or to the process
of tlie courts for so doing, still there
is no reason why those who assist
him and are within the jurisdiction
of the courts should not be prevent
ed so far as they are amenable to
judicial process."
Judge Junkcl says he recognizes
that there might be many cases in
which a court of equity would refuse
to interfere with the President's war
power because more harm than good
might result hut this does not appear
to apply in this instance.
Way Was Open
It may he suggested the court savs
that it is the duty of the President in
control to attempt to avoid loss to
the companies but he holds that in
absence of facts and findings it must
he presumed that the rates and
schedules formally and legally ap
proved by the Public Service Com
mission are fair and reasonable, "if
they were not," he adds, "there is
no doubt that on applying to it tho
commission would have afforded
ample relief."
After going deeply into the reso
lution granting authority for the
Federal control of the lines the court
says that "It is quite clear that the
resolution did not contemplate an
interference with the rates and tolls
in loroe at the time it was passed."
It follows. Judge Kunkel holds,
that the President and the Postmas
ter General were not acting within
tho scope of their authority and
therefore not officially when they
arbitrarily changed the rates. "It
will hardly be questioned," he con
cludes, "that the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania has not the power to
enforce its own statutes, and to pre
vent their violation; or that this
court has local Jurisdiction to en
tertain the present bill for the pur
pose of preventing the violation of
the order of the Public Service Com
mission," * * * "and we think
anyone who undertakes to disobey the
order should show such a state of
farts as plainly justifies his action.
For the considerations which We
feel are developed only in part, wo
are induced to continue this injunc
tion until final hearing, when the
facts of the case may be fully shown
and the questions which have been
raised may be more thoroughly dis
cussed and considered. Accordingly
the motion to continue is sustained.

Daily Health Talks
What Doctor Pierce Has
Done For Humanity!
It lias always seemed to me that
Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., should
be placed near the top when a list of
America's great benefactors is writ
ten. He studied and conquered hu
man diseases to a degree that few
realize. Whenever he found a
remedy that overcame disease, he at
once announced It in the newspapers
and told where it could be bought
at a small price. He did not follow
the usual custom of keeping the In
gredients secret, so that the rich
only could afford to buy the medi
cine, but openly printed the name of
each root and herb he used. And
so to-day the names of Dr. Pierce
and his medicines are widelv
known, and they stand for better
health and better citizenship.
One of this great physician's most
successful remedies is known as
Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
These arc little, sugar-coated pills,
composed of Mayapple, leaves of
aloe, root of jalap—things that Na
ture grows in the ground. These
Pellets are safe because they move
the bowels gently, leaving no bad
after-effects, as so many pills do.
Very often they make a person who
takes them feel like a new man ?-
woman, for they cleanse the intes
tines of hard, decayed and poison
ous matter that accumulates when
one is costive. If you are consti
pated, by all means go to your drug
gist and get some of Dr. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. They may prove
to be the very thing your system
requires to make you well and
happy.
