MUCH REGRET OVER
DEATH OF KALBFUS
[Continued from First Page.]
dent of the commission, who was
driving the car. was also killed.
With Dr. Charles B. Penrose, of
Philadelphia, president of the
Game Commission, John M. Phillips,
of Pittsburgh, another member, and
Mr. Kelly, Dr. Kalbfus was making
a tour of the western part of the
State to inspect future game pre
serves whose purchase has been au
thorized by the Legislature.
Auto Wrecked
Having spent Friday at Union
town and Saturday at Dußois, the
party was enroute to Warren when
the accident occurred. The train
which struck the machine was ttt'o
hours late and running at a high
speed to make up time when it ap
proached the crossing. Dr. Penrose
and Mr. Phillips had safelv passed
the crossing in their car and Mr.
Kelly, thinking the way clear, drove
across the tracks. The train caught
their machine squarely in the mid
dle and reduced it to fragments. Dr.
Kalbfus was thrown clear of the
tracks but Mr. Kelly was carried a
hundred feet before the train could
be stopped.
Dr. Kalbfus has been a resident
of Harrisburg since 1887, when he
was in the oflices of the Secretary
of the Commonwealth. He lived at
1005 North Second street, hut at
present ho and Mrs. Kalbfus were
at their home in Stevensville, War
ren county. In addition to his wife,
Dr. Kalbfus is survived by a daugh
ter, Mrs. Edward M. Frear, of
Honesdale, and a son, Captain, E. C.
Kalbfus, U. S. N„ who was in com
mand of the U. S. transport Poca
hontas during the war.
The Secretary of the Game Com
mission was widely known through
out the country because of his in
terest in conservation measures,
with reference to game and wild
birds. Born in Williamsport in
1852, he spent the early years of his
life on the frontier in the far west.
Dr. Kalbfus had only recently com
pleted compiling this part of his life
and that of later years, when he
was a lawyer in defense of the Molly
Maguires, and still later a United
States revenue agent.
Lawyer and Dentist
Admitted to the bar in 1887, in
Carbon county, Dr. Kalbfus took no
great interest in his profession, but
soon moved to Harrisburg, where he
became an attache in the offices of
the Secretary of the Commonwealth.
Later he studied dentistry and was
graduated from the Philadelphia
School of Dentistry in 1892.
After carrying on an active prac
tice in this profession, he accepted
in 1895 the newly-created position
of Secretary of the State Game
Commission. This was at the re
quest of the Pennsylvania State
Sportsmen's Association, of which
Dr. Kalbfus was an active member.
He served in this capacity without
remuneration for tho first six years,
and held the same position until
his death.
"Woody" Kelly, the other victim
of the accident, has been field su
perintendent of the Game Commis
sion since 1915. Widely known
throughout the State by his nick
name when he tt'as in charge of a
large lumber concern, Mr. Kelly lie
came connected with the commis
sion in 1913.

Visiting the Shops With Adele
lIY ADELE
DO you realize that 80 per cent of the world's supply ot coffee
comes from Brazil? And do you know that during the war
poor Brazil was left with a heavy stock on hand? Tho result
was a depression of the market ar.*d a lowering of the price This
reduction was offset, however, by the heavy increase in the cost of
delivery to this country. So coffee sold for a practically normal" sum
until the last few months, when conditions changed, causing a sud'den
increase in value. Consequently the Grand Union- Tea Co 208 North
Second street, ever noted for its policy of selling merchandise of the
highest quality at the lowest possible price, was forced to charge
more than it desired. Ar.vl on Friday evening I'm going to
tell you the interesting story of the reason why.
THE black jet trimming does it.
There's no doubt at all about
the matter. It adds an abso
solutcly irresistible touch. And the
Proud, little evening gown which it
adorns is well aware of the fact.
Made of soft, black taffeta, it fairly
seems to say, "Don't you love my
bodice with it's deep cuff of jet
lace?" Of course you do, and you're
also delighted to find that the hem
flaunts a similar feature. With
shoulders ar.*d scarf of blackest net,
its somberness is relieved by a vivid
cluster of silk geraniums, furnish
ing just the necessary touch of color.
Incidentally, you can see it for your
self at the Cloos Shop, in the Penn-
Harris building, the home of modish
garments.
WHAT are you doing with your money these days? Are you us
ing it in tho wisest way? Here's hoping you're not contented
with leaving it in the bunk or carrying it in your pockets when
at Doutrichs "Mark-Down" sale its value is so greatly increased. Do
you know that never before in the history of the city have people boon
spending their money so freely? And do you realize that never before
have they had such an incentive to spend? Who can resist the tempta
tion to purchase articles that are being sold for less than it will cost
to replace them? No one, I'll venture to say. At least r.*o one in
Central Pennsylvania, judging by the way the people are thronging to
this establishment where keeping faith with the public means more than
mere dollars and cents. Folks are beginning to realize that Doutrichs
is indeed a public service institution.
TRY one Weaver's roast chicken
lunches. They're simply de
licious. Served every Thurs
day, they tempt the palate as few
things do. So be wise! Lunch there
next Thursday, and then make It a
daily habit. Indeed, that's really the
easiest thing in the world to do
when they tempt you with bait such
as this—roast pork, new potatoes,
egg plant, cucumbers, coffee, and
your choice of three desserts.
Doesn't It sound good? It surely
does, and It tastes still better. Per
toctiy seasoned and thoroughly cook

even the most particular
CITY COMMENDED
FOR PENN-HARRIS
Public Spiritedness Approved
by Magazine of National
Circulation
The aggressiveness and civic |
spirit of Harrisburg in bringing J
about the completion of the Pcnn- j
Harris hotel as a community asset,
are commended in un article which
appears in the current issue of The
American City, a magazine of nat
ional circulation devoted to the dis
semination of news concerning the
noteworthy achievements of Ameri
can cities. The article describes the
hotel as one of the most up-to-date
and modern in the country.
"The Penn-Harris hotel in Harris
burg is a monument to the civic
pride of the Capital City of Penn
sylvania," the item states, "It offers
not only unrivaled facilities for the
entertainment of conventions, hut
| provides a community center for the
I assembling and entertaining of liar-
I risburg's residents."
| The Harrisburg Chamber of Com
i merce also is commended in the
! article, for its activities in bring-
I ing about the completion of the
i project.
I "The campaign for the erection of
I the hotel was launched and carried
through to a successful issue by the
Chamber of Commerce, with the
'loyal support of the public spirited
citizens of the community. When
it became apparent that outside cap
ital would demand such exorbitant
terms that the city would he the
loser in the transaction, the Har
risburg Hotel Company was organ
ized and incorporated. The stock
was put on sale and quickly taken
up by the citizens. It is held by 427
stockholders, practically all of whom
are residents of Harrisburg, or were
when the project started. Three
local businessmen each subscribed
for $86,000 worth of the stock, three
others took $25,000 each, and one
individual took a block of $55,000
worth."
How tho hotel was completed
despite the obstacles accruing from
the war, and its successful opcra
[ tion during the first few months
since its opening, also are described
|in tho magazine article.
Farmers Anxious to
Help Solve Problem
! Indianapolis, Aug. 11. —Represen-
tatives of farmers' organizations in
twenty-four wheat and corn grow
ing States will attend a conference
in Washington late to-day to discuss
the high cost of living and lay plans
for united action in the high cost of
living investigation, according to
John G. Brown, president of the In
diana Federation of Farmers' Asso
ciations. Mr. Brown returned from
Chicago yesterday, where he at
tended a meeting of farmers' repre
sentatives of Indiana, Illinois, and
lowa, at which it was decided to call
the meeting at Washington.
Mr. Brown said that the farmers
were anxious to do their share in
solving tho price problems now fac
ing the country, hut that the farm
l ers were first to feel the effect of a
generous tieup. They expect to carry
their side of the question to the
Presidnt and stay in Washington un
til a solution is reached.
Strikes Spreading in Japan;
Tokio Newspapers Suspend
Tokio, Friday, Aug. 11.—Virtually
ull the newspapers of Tokio have
suspended publication, owing to the
demands of the printers for higher
wages, which the owners refuse to
grant.
Numerous strikes are in progress
elsewhere in Japan, some of the
governmental establishments being
affected. There have been no dis
orders.
RECOVER STOLEN AUTO
The automobile of E. C. Baeken
stoss. of this city, which was stolen
last Thursday, was recovered yes

had been abandoned.
DO be original. It's just as easy
as being a continued copy-cat
and it's lots more fun. Many
of us ear.' justly pride ourselves on
our individuality until it comes to
buying pictures for our homes.' Then
wc suddenly fall short. For some
unknown reason, we insist upon
purchasing the so-called "popular"
pictures which wo see every where
we go. We seem to argue that since
our friends have them wc must have
them too. As a result, our rooms
lose their individuality and charm.
Now, securing distinctive ones s
really a simple matter. J. Saltzgiv
er, Art and Antique dealer, 223
N. Seond street, carries no otl r
kind, and those purchased at his
store will express your own individ
ual taste instead of reflecting that
of your friends.

NO EFFECT ON MARKET
New York, Aug. 11.—The sudden
death of undrew Carnegie apparently
had little effect upon the stock mar
ket. The common stock or the
United States Steel Corporation, of
which the Carnegie companion form
ed an important part, lagged behind
the general list, but it was declared
in well informed quarters that Mr.
Carnegie's holdings in the steel
' corporation were limited to Ilrst
n oi-gage bonds.
