Reib, former resident clerk of the House of Representatives, against whom charges of forging receipts for state taxes have been lodged by At torney General W. I. Schaffer, would be transferred to Dauphin county, were denied to-day by the Attorney General. The warrant for Reib's arrest was issued in Philadelphia and lie waived a hearing before a Philadelphia mag istrate. It was said that there is no evidence to show that the signatures were attached in Dauphin county, but that, inasmuch as the receipts were presented by Reib in Philadelphia, the proceedings were instituted there. Under the law a prisoner can be adjudged; guilty of forgery in the county in which a signature is forged as well as in the county in which the forgery is presented. Deputy Attor ney General Swope has been assigned t.o assist the district attorney of Philadelphia county in the prosecu tion of Reib. CLEAN HOUSING IS SAID NECESSARY [Continued from First Page.] the city to the State authorities who have picked Harrisburg, from all cities of the State, as the one place to try out the proposed system for making a model city. Colonel Martin is an impressive figure and he looks the man of authority. For many years a personal friend of Gov ernor Sproul, he won distinction dur ing the war as chief of the Walter Reed Hospital at Washington where 2,500 oversea cases were handled. "Here we are" was his attitude. "The State Department of Health is ready to help Harrisburg. We pick you be cause you are just a little ahead, something above the average in all branches of progress. What are you going to do?" Notorious Examples "We seem to have a regular ace of a city," was the consensus of opinion as heard from one promi nent citizen who had listened close ly to the gamut of praise showing what progress had been made here in the last fifteen years and how keen the citizens are to continue the progress, and yet Dr. John Molitor, chief of the Bureau of Housing, pointed out that housing evils here were notorious. For example he em phasized that at Twelfth and Mon roe streets, a house was occupied by twenty-six families, with two outside hydrants and filthy toilets. Dr. Hamilton street four overcrowded families moved out of one house, but seven moved in; he identified as squalid living spots Cowden street, North Seventh, Monroe, North Tenth, Indian alley and South Ninth. "The State," he promised, "will shortly make a survey of the entire city and put the situation up to your Chamber of Commerce. Fifteen years ago you saw great activity start here; you secured paving, water front and parks. You must not stop now." The hardest rap for Harrisburg came from Dr. Karl Schaflle, medi cal inspector of the tuberculosis dis pensary. He gave the city credit for lessening the death rate from this disease only 77 in 1,000 now, which he ascribed to better wages, sun ! light and air in factories, fresli j air schools, etc. But he charged the | Harrisburg physicians with not re j porting living tuberculosis cases to the board, and he said the campaign I cannot go on without this co-opera- I tion, "Spitting in public places," he j said, "is not enforced, especially in street care and market houses.- He maced the trolley cars for over crowding, and deplored that there was not a hospital here so that con sumption victims might die near their own home. Following along this line Dr. Dor othy Child, chief of the Division of Child Hygtiene, demanded (that a municipal nurse be appointed at a salary of $ 1,000 per year, with S2OO for expenses. She was gratified to admit however that infant mortality is decreasing here, due greatly to improvement in milk. Steel ton in Danger Another emphatic warning came from Charles A. Emerson, chief cn ' gineer of the Department of Health I in the matter of sewers, raw sewage i discharged below the dam being a ' great injustice to Steelton. The sew ! age plan, he says, should be com | pleted immediately even if necessary to Issue bonds. | He predicted typhoid for the whole of Steelton if the filter plant should : become inactive. He pointed out the ! lack of any sewage system in Pleas- I ant View, the cesspools of which ! pour down their filth on the city and ! must be renovated or cause an epi demic. He declared that all open ! places such as this should be elimi ! nated and if necessary that Pleasant j View be joined to the municipality Iso her hygiene can be controlled. BARRISBURG TELEGTtAPH WILSON TO SAIL FOR U. S. APRIL 27 OR 28 Paris, April 15.—Presi dent Wilson intends to sail for the United States on April 27 or 28, after being" present at the open ing meeting of the peace congress at Versailles, the Echo de Paris says to-day. After his depart ure Colonel E. M. House will act for him, the newspaper adds. Washington, April 15. —Four destroyers, the Manley, Rathburne, Tal bot and Dorsey have left for the Azores to escort the presidential ship George Washington when she returns from overseas. Acting Secre tary Roosevelt said to day that the transport was due at Brest" on the evening of April 19. Announcement also was made that the super dreadnaught Arizona had replaced the Mississippi as the escort flagship for the George Washington. Mosquitoes, he declared were not so ( bad here as some other places, but frisky enough, especially in Italian Park, Wildwood and Paxtang, and that they should be entirely decimat ed. He complimented the city on.its filter plant, but insisted that it will deteriorate and cause another water famine if funds are not immediately raised to reinforce mains and add to the filters. Major Leo Gans, chief of the Venereal Section, urged the establisht | ment of prophylactic stations for civilians similar to those conducted by the army for the soldiers. He hctd that the most valuable by product of the war would be the ex perience in checking the incident of veneral diseases. It is to be done by education, and by regarding and treating them with the same frank ness as other contagious diseases. There should be established here a station to treat these diseases just as there are for tuberculosis. He gave statistics showing that 8 per cent, of the soldiers at one United States Army.camp were found to be afllicted by one venereal disease. More than 80 per cent, of women brought to hospitals suffer with this disease, he averred, in emphasizing the need for such a station here. Danger From Flies Dr. John Miller, public health educator, gave some exciting facts re garding the fly as a pest but he did not agitate Mrs. William Henderson., who wit bothers of the Civic Club, smiled in response. Mrs. Henderson with some exultation reported that the Civic Club campaign had been going eight years and that last sea son's kill amounted to eighteen bushels. Dr. Miller made the fly out to be .the rankest joy killer and all- I round demon on earth; and begged ail hands to kill, kill, kill. He asked that the city use borax in stables where horses are kept, but hopes this will not be necessary very long as by actual count he finds that there are only 500 horses left in the city. Dr. Howard Hull, chief medical inspector, showed as a result of his study that the incidence of con tagious diseases reflected the great est credit on the health authorities of Harrisburg, being lower thhn that of any other similar commun ity in the state. He urged a more prompt reporting of contagious dis eases, a more careful supervision of schools, education of the house holders, and in particular the j prompt erection of a contagious disease hospital to which sourses of djinger to the community could be promptly removed. Dr. Wilmer Batt, register of state vital statistics, told that the present average death per thousand in Harrisburg is only 15, perhaps the lowest in the state. One child in 12 dies in its first year, so that a year-old child has the same chance of life pertaining to a man of 65. The birth-rate here is low, compared to other cities, due somewhat to the number of suburban residents. Urges Inquiries He urged better living and school conditions and warned aginst the exposing of children to disease in the family. "The dope traffic in this city is practically the same as that in other cities the size of Harrisburg," said Dr. Blair, chief of the Division of Drug Control. "There are 124 ad dicts listed and probably 500 more who are not listed. The dope traffic is dangerous to the health of any city and the citizens should co operate with the police in stamping it out. "While the traffickers and the hopeless addicts to dope are danger ous to a city's health, the 'tipplers' are even more dangerous. There are those persons who, every time they have a slight pain or ache, they clamor for a dose of morphine or some other drug. This is exceeding ly dangerous. There arc thousands of 'tipplers' in the city. As a physi cian, I warn you, don't do this, for the drug habit overtakes you much faster than does Intoxicating liquors." George B. Tripp, for the Chamber of Commerce, pledged the State Board of Health sincere co-oper ation and, like Mayor Keistcr, ex pressed gratitude that the oppoi tunity has been given Harrisburg. "The Chamber of Commerce" he announced "has a committee right on the job to work on the contagious disease hospital, which we need Legislature to further; there is also a committee on housing, and we will be glad to co-operate in every way." Dr. John M. Kaunick, City Health Officer, spoke briefly, just long enough to pledge his co-operation.

Included with Mrs. Olmsted on the survey committee are Miss Anne McCormick, Mrs. John W. Reily, Mrs. Lyman D. Gil bert, and Mrs. William Henderson. Between to-morrow morning and Saturday, every house in Harris burg will be visited by one of the survey workers, and information concerning every vacant room, apartment and house will be com piled for record at the Chamber of Commerce offices.

Strouse & Co. Harrisburg,Pa. Fighting Living-Cost with Gasoline Everything that facilitates the movement of merchandise works toward economy. The motor-truck, through its efficiency as a carrier, directly affects living-cost. Quicker distribution means cheaper distribution. Cheaper distribution means lower prices. Motor-trucks are moving on every highway, carrying from point-of-origin to point-of-consumptiop, Merchandise, Produce, Meats, Milk, Iron, Steel, Cement, Petroleum, Coal and all produce of natural resource or of factory production. Power is the essence of motor-truck efficiency. Motor-truck owners are business-men and, when they buy gasoline, they buy with one idea in mind Power. Atlantic Gasoline is the accepted fuel. This is not a mere statement. It is a fact demonstrated by our records which show a preponderance of Atlantic Gasoline consumption among owners and operators of motor-trucks, whether in large fleets or by individual users. For the same reason that Atlantic Gasoline puts power in the motor-truck, it puts pep in the engine of the automobile. Atlantic Gasoline is the fuel of economy and efficiency.

Brown, a Cleveland man. was for many years a confirmed drunkard. His friends and relatives despaired of ever redeeming him. His sister sought the best medical inen in Europe in the hope that she might find something which would Cure him. Finally she was recommended to an eminent chemist, who gave her a private formula (the same as ap pears below) \nd told her how to use it. She had it filled at a drug store and gave it to him secretly. The re sults were startling. In a few weeks he was completely cured. That was over ten years ago and he has not touched a drop since. He now oc cupies a position of trust and is en thusiastic in his efforts to help oth ers overcome the liquor habit. He feels that he can best do this by mak ing public the same formula which cured him. Here is the prescription: Go to any first-class drug store and get prepared Tescum Powders. Drop PRELIMINARY HEARING IN INJUNCTION SUIT The preliminary hearing in the in junction suit (lied by Postmaster Gen eral Burleson to prevent officials of the commonwealth from instituting proceedings to stop the telegraph and telephone companies, exclusive of the Bell, from collecting increased rates in Pennsylvania as ordered by Post master General Burlesdn, will be held in the Federal Court in Pittsburgh next Monday. The Attorney General will represent the state at the hear ing. one powder twice a day in coffee, tea, or any kind of liquid. It is harmless, tasteless, colorless and cannot be de tected. You can use it without the knowledge of anyone. A lady who re cently tried it on her husband re ports: "My husband was on a spree when I got the powders and he usual ly stays drunk from three to four weeks at a time. After putting the powder in his coffee for four days he sobered up and has not taken a drink since and says he is through with it forever. He also complained that whiskey did not taste the same. I shall not tell him what did it, but I am grateful for this help and I shall recommend it whenever possible." Note: A leading druggist when shown the above article, said: "Yes, Tescum is a very remarkable remedy for the drink habit. It is harmless, wonderfully effective and is having an enormous s,ale. 'I advise every one who wishes to destroy the liquor habit to give it a trial." It is sold in this city by J. Nelson Clark and other first-class druggists.
