of Preston Siegfried vs. Philadelphia

The claim was based on the fact
that Siegfried, employed as a break

room of the company during the
lunch hour and in running about
the room fell over some sacks and
injured his arm. Mr. Scott says
that "the play indulged in surely

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair
If you want to keep your hair in '
good condition, be careful what you !
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Mulsified cocoanut
oil shampoo (which is pure and en
tirely greaseless), is much better
than anything else you can use for
shampooing as this can't possibly
injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with wa
ter and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine und
silky, bright. Huffy and easy to man- i
age.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil I
shampoo at most any drug store. It !
is very cheap and a few ounces is ;
enough to last everyone in the fam- j
ily for months.

HXRRISBTTRG TELEGRAPH
DESCRIBES HIS
RISE TO POWER
Atanasijc Shola Is Now Presi
dent of Bosnia-
Herzegovina
Sarajevo, Aug. 29. One of the
men who were arrested by Austrian
authorities after the assassination of
Archduke Ferdinand in 1914, is now
president of the provincial govern
ment of Bosnia-Herzegovina and is
recognized as one of the leaders in
the new kingdom of Jugo-Slavia. He
is Atanasije Shola. He was kept in
prison at hard labor during the war.
To-day, .In his office in what was
formerly part of an Austrian palace,
Mr. Shola described his years in
prison and subsequent rise to power.
He is a Herzegovian, 42 years old and
considered to be a man of excep
tional ability.
"One hundred and fifty-six of us
were placed under arrest in July,
1914," he said. "There was no proof
that 1 was in sympathy with the
Juga-Slav propaganda, but the au
thorities suspected what was in my
heart. Sixteen of the men arrested
at that time wire condemned to
death. The death penalties were not
executed, because of the remonstrance
by the King of Spain, but the prison
! sentences were all made effective.
"I went to prison on July 26, 1914.
My cell was a small one—a mere
cage, and 1 was kept at hard labor,
in October of 1918, the people of
Bosnia-Herzegovina, as in other Juga-
Slav provinces of the Austrian em
pire. anticipate the debacle of the
empire, and organized a National
Council for the conduct of affairs.
As soon as the Austrian army fled
this council came into full executive
power and the men wrongly impris
oned were liberated. I was released
from priscn on November 1, 1918, and
almost immediately was chosen by the
National Council as president of the
government of Bosnia-Herzegovina."
He said that the people generally
were in sympathy with the central
Juga-Slav government at Belgrade.
Bricklayers in
Philadelphia Quit
Philadelphia, Aug. 29.—The Oper
ative Builders Association of Phila
delphia agreed to stop all brick
work on building operations in Phil
adelphia and vicinity because of the
walkout of the union bricklayers,
who are demanding $1.25 an hour
from tl>e employers.
The builders say this demand is
in violation of an agreement with
the men that they were to receive
87 cents an hour up to April 30,
1920.
MARK LAKE DIES

Lake, assemblyman from Cape May

BEGIN CAMPAIGN
AGAINST "QUACK"
Federal Authorities "Will Sup
press This Variety of
Medicine
Washington, Aug. 29. Four hun
dred and fifty seizures of
remedies for social diseases have
been made recently under tho food
and drug act by Federal officials who
have inaugurated a campaign to sup
press this variety of "quack" medi
cine. In making this announcement
to-day the Bureau of Chemistry of
the Department of Agriculture issued
a general warning that use of such
"remedies" was extremely dangerous
and likely to lead to a long period
of suffering.
"The goods seized include a great
variety of compounds," said the bu
reau's announcement. "Some of the
labels bear the claim of the manu
facturer that the contents are sure
cures. Some contain statements
that cures will be effected within
definite periods.
"In all the seizure actions the gov
ernment alleged the preparations to
be falsely and fraudulently labeled.
Such preparations are sold largely
because of plausible but false claims
1 regarding their curative effect. Many
sufferers are led to believe that cures
will be effected by these prepara
tions, and adequate treatment under
competent medical supervision is neg
lected until permanent injury to
health and even danger to life has re
sulted."
Trolley Cars Again
Run in Pittsburgh;
Men Accept Award
Pittsburgh, Aug. 29. Street car
service, suspended two weeks ago
by a strike of 3.000 motormen and
conductors of the Pittsburgh Rail
ways Company was resumed at 5
o'clock this morning. The striking
carmen, by a vote of 2,082 to 408,
decided to return to work, thereby
accepting "under protest" the I£a
tional War Labor Board's award of
five cents an hour increase in wages.
The men demanded a 12-cent
raise.
The carmen's vote came at the
conclusion of a stormy meeting
which was addressed by William B.
Fitzgerald, International vice presi
dent of the Amalgamated Associa
tion of Street Railway and Electric
Employes. Hoots and jeers greet
ed his plea that the men live up to
their agreement with the trolley
company's receivers to abide by the
labor board's decision and return
jto work. Mr. Fitzgerald then took
| a firmer stand and told the strikers
| that they would "be thrown out of
j the international union unless they
ended the tie-up," concluding witli
the declaration that "ears are going
to be run in Pittsburgh if United
States soldiers have to be brought
here to do it."
