It is the plan of State offi cials to start as soon as possible, commencing with the coping and changes along Third and Walnut streets, in which the city will bear a part, and Superintendent Thomas W. Templeton plans an early con ference with the city fathers to ob tain some action. As a matter of fact, the State now has $450,000 for the Capitol Park improvements, exclusive of the of fice building and the Memorial Bridge, which are carried in special bills, and may have more through contributions which will be made for specific operations by the City of Harrisburg and the Pennsylva nia Railroad. This is due to the fact that an appropriation of $300,- 000 is available, having been made in thef sum of $350,000 two years ago. About $50,000 has been spent on the extension preparations and the whole sum is at hand, not hav ing lapsed. $2,500,000 in All Taking the $1,250,000 for the new office building and the $750,000 for starting the Memorial Bridge, whose approval is considered likely, as the Governor went over them during the closing days of the Leg islature, there will he almost $2,- 500,000 for the general scheme of Capitol improvement to make the civic center of the Commonwealth in accordance with the Brunner plans.

The canvas and bur lap in which meats, hams and i bacon are wrapped have been found at times to weigh more ! than half a pound and the pur chaser has been required to pay for it at the same rate as for the contents. If the agricultural bill I is passed with the amendment, j meat purchasers will pay for the • i >nlv and the weight will | have to be stamped on the wrap j Ping. i ■ — Government food stuffs will be sold to the people of Harrisburg at a bar gain or not at all. This was the de cision reached to-day at a meeting of the Mayor's committee. It was decided to inquire into the saleabtlity of the articles of food offered at the Reserve Depot at New Cumberland, the actual cost to be incurred in get ting the goods to the people and j whether there will be a saving in ihe cost to the buyers. It was brought out at the meeting that prices quoted at the Reserve De pot are slightly higher than prices at other depots. It was also said that the meats would be sold under conditions not satisfactory to local buyers; that it would be necessary j to purchase cans of meats too iarge for an ordinary family, and the I w-aste would add to the expense.

"TREAT 'EM ROUGH" GANG WANTS MEN Chance to Learn Innermost Secrets of Liberty Motors and Oh, Boy! the Fun the Fellows Had Overseas Enlistments are still being ac cepted for the "Treat 'Em Rough" crowd, the American Tank Corps, at the Army recruiting station, 320 Market street. The training school for tanks is located at Camp Meade, Md., and there is an unusual oppor tunity afforded men to learn skilled trades. The Liberty motor is used in the big tanks and any man inter ested in that motor and the learn ing of it, could do no better, it was said at the recruiting office to-day than enlist in the tanks and spend a few years learning how to "treat 'em rough." The following inter esting account from the Stars and Stripes, of A. E.

Sproul left Harrisburg to-day to visit the en campment of the Reserve Militia at Mt. Gretna and Capitol Hill was agitated whether the Governor, who has developed a fondness for smash ing precedents, would continue to do so and not wear a high hat at the review to be tendered him. Other governors have "taken the review," as the military expression has it, wearing high hats, although Governor Samuel W. Pennypacker departed from tradition and occu pied a barouche instead of sitting on a horse. While the Governor is said to be perfectly at home on a horse, it is not certain just how he regards wearing a high hat on a warm day at a military review. When he left here he was wearing a com fortable straw hat. Reviewed Last Time At four o'clock this afternoon, under a perfect sky, the Governor reviewed for the last time the units of the Pennsylvania Militia. The bri gade passed before the Governor with the swinging stride of an old time outfit. The Governor arrived about 11:30 and was received on the outskirts of the camp by a delegation of officers. He was escorted to camp by the squadron of cavalry under command of Major Hugh L. Curtin. At lun cheon, served at division headquar ters, he was greeted by Adjutant General Beary, Senator Horace L. Haldeman, of the Governor's own staff, and others. After luncheon he was driven to the headquarters of Brigadier General Charles T. Cress well. commander of the camp. A isits Regimental Commanders I.ater the Governor visited in turn the three regimental commanders, Colonel John M. Groff, of the Ist In fantry; Colonel Sterling E. W. Eyer, of the 2nd Infantry; and Colonel Franklin Blackstone of the 3rd In fantry, as well as Major Curtin of the cavalry squadron.

Sproul in his action on the big bill. During the Brum baugh administration the Philadel phia Governor found this fund a very convenient thing against which to draw for payment of bills of many kinds and when he went out of office he had made a dent in the share intended to cover the expenses of the Governor and the Mansion between January and June. This led to the fixing of the allowance at $24,000, which some considered about all that a Governor would need, the Brumbaugh expenditures being taken as the peak of the load, so to speak. The Governor also cut down the $50,360 item for clerk hire in his de partment to $45,000. The Brum baugh administration found it hard to get along on $37,500, and had to "borrow" stenographers occasion ally. He slashed some of the de partments heavily, one of the places where he cut being the Auditor General, who loses $50,000 for em ployment of extra clerks.
