„RRBCTION PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS, the Council of the City
of Harrisburg, by ordinance No. 129,
session of 1918-1919. duly passed and
signed by the Mayor of said city on
" a > *919. signified the desire
of the corporate authorities of said
city to use the sum of three hundred
thousand dollars ($300,000), authoriz
ed by the electors at an election held
November 2. 1915, to be borrowed for
the construction of a bridge, with the
necessary approaches thereto, on the
line of Walnut street, from a point
at or about the western line of the
right of way of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company to a point at or
about the intersection of Twelth and
Walnut streets, and the consequential
damages resulting therefrom, for the
purpose of making a payment to the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to
ward the cost of the construction of
the Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial
bridge at State street, and its ap
proaches. authorized bv act No. 420,
of the General Assembly of Pennsyl
vania. approved July 18. 1919; author
ize d the submission of the question of
such use to a vote of the qualified :
(lectors of the city: and fixed the!
time for the holding of an election
for that purpose: therefore.
NOTICE is hereby given that an
election will he held, at the time and
places for holding the general muni
cipal election in the City of Harris
burg. en Tuesday, the 4th day of No
vember. 1919, between the hours of
7 o'clock a. m. and 7 o'clock p. m.,
for the purpose of obtaining the as
sent of the electors to such use of
the money so authorized to be bor
rowed as aforesaid.
The amount of money theretofore
borrowed or authorized to he borrow
ed is thtee hundred thousand dollars
($300,000).
The purpose for which such money
Was originally authorized was the
construction of a bridge, with the
necessary approaches thereto, on the
line of Walnut street, from a point
at or about the western line of the
right of way of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company to a point at or
about the intersection of Twelfth and
Walnut streets, and the consequential
damages resulting therefrom.
The reason why said money may
not be used for the purpose for which
it was borrowed or authorized to be
borrowed is that the purpose has
proven to be impracticable and im
possible because the said sum of three
hundred thousand dollars ($300,000)
is now inadequate, by reason of large
increases in the price of labor and
materials, to pay the cost of the pro
posed structure, aside from the cer
tain consequential damages incident
thereto: and. further, because the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, by
act No. 420 of the General Assembly
of Pennsylvania, approved July 18.
1919, has authorized the erection and
construction, as a memorial to the
citizens of this Commonwealth who
served in the military and naval
forces of the United States in the late
world war a Soldiers' and Sailors'
Memorial Bridge, with memorial py
lons at the western end thereof, and
with the necessary approaches, from
a point on what is now State street,
in the Capitol Park, in the City of
Harrisburg. following the line of
State street across the tracks of the
Pennsylvania railroad to a point at
or near Thirteenth street, in said city,
which bridge, as designed, will be
much more elaborate, spacious and
convenient than the proposed Walnut
street bridge, and will serve the con
venience of a far greater part of the
nublic than the proposed Walnut
street bridge, including those who
would have been most advantaged by
the proposed Walnut street bridge,
as the proposed Memorial Bridge
will be about four hundred feet north
of the proposed Walnut street bridge
and practically parallel therewith,
and will have approaches running to
or near Walnut street: and the cor
porate authorities of the city desire
to co-operate with the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania by the payment of
said sum of three hundred thousand
dollars toward the cost of the con
struction of this lasting tribute to the
valor of its sons in the late world
war, and incidentally secure the con
struction of a bridge in every respect
excelling the proposed Walnut street
bridge.
The new purpose for which the cor
porate authorities desire to use said
money borrowed or authorized to be
borrowed is for making a payment to
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
toward the cost of the construction
ot the Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial
Bridge at State street, and its fep
pronches, authorized by act No. 420,
of the General Assembly of Pennsyl
vania. approved July 18, 1919.

KING OF BELGIANS
[Continned from First Page.l
first to welcome his sovereign to
America.
Guns Boom Welcome
As the George Washington crept
through the Narrows past Quaran
tine the guns of the forts which
guard the harbor boomed a presi-,
dential salute. The flag of the royal I
house of Belgium was broken out
at the masthead of the transport
with the'S<ars and Stripes, and the
warships dipped their colors. Three
thousand American troops, fellow
passengers with royalty on the
steamship, lined the rails and cheer
ed themselves hoarse as they sighted
the outlines of the Statue of Liberty
through the mist. They had spent
the night at anchor almost in sight
of New York, and they were eager
to be home again.
Dip Their Colors
The George Washington, former
ly the North German Lloyd liner of
that name, arrived off the Fire
Island lightship at 5 o'clock yester
day. She anchored at sunset three
miles east of the Ambrose lightship.
A flotilla of twelve destroyers, un
der command of Rear Admiral Hor
ace Plunkett, escorted the George
Washington up the narrows and up
the bay to Army pier Xo. 3 at Hobo
ken. Several other municipal boats
and yachts proceeded to quarantine
to greet the vessel, but did not form
part of the official fleet. As the ship
came up the harbor, salutes of 21
guns were fired from Castle Wil
liam, on Governor's Island and from
the coastal fortifications. In re
sponse the George Washington broke
out at her masthead the fiag of the
Belgian royal family and the na
tional colors. American warships
responded by dipping their colors.

Scientific Discussions
by Garrett P. Serviss
"How do you account for the fact
that some people have a presenti
ment before trouble or death comes?
1 happen to be gifted this way if
we may call it a gift. 1 have never
known it to fail. I always have a
presentiment before death or trouble,
comes, without anything else occur- !
ing to make me suspect it. I can't |
tell just what la going to happen, j
but I can always tell that something!
is going to happen. What is your]
opinion?—P. P. G."
My opinion is that if you reason i
on the scoop-shovel plan, like a
"weather prophet," you can always
find something somewhere that will
serve for a continuation of any pre
sentiment or prediction. Your state-,
ment that you cannot tell just what
is going to happen, but simply feel
that something or other is going
wrong, proves that the presentiment
is not a true prescience, or fore
knowledge.
You fit it to anything in the nature
of "trouble" that chance to come
along within an indefinite period
after the vague premonition crept
over your spirit. it is a stale of
mind and not a grasp on future
events that constitutes your "gift."
1 should call such a condition un
healthy; not in the sense of "mental
disease," but hi the sense of a bad
habit, or mood, of the mind.
A shadow falls upon your spirit,
due to some physical cause opeiat
ing somewhere in your body, some
functional derangements of the stom
ach, liver, or what not, and you
take it for a premonition of some
thing about to happen outside your
self, although phobably within your
circles of personul or family inter
eSt]f something untoward does hap
pen you pitch upon it as the event
that your prophetic spirit was
striving to warn you of. Or else
you assume —and some theorists
would, perhaps, encourage such an
idea —that your nature is supersen
sitive, keeping you informer of the
slightest disturbances in the invis
ible and mysterious sea of life around
you, so that you can detect the com
ing wave by indications too delicate
to affect the nervous sustems of
ordinary persons.
This idea, while it has been used
to explain certain cases of alleged
prescience, such as that of a pre
vision by a clarivoyant in London or
the assassination of the Kng and
Queen of Serbia in Belgrade in 1903,
has not scientific standing—i. e., it
rests upon no experimentally veri
fied basis—and I should advise you
not to look to it for an explanation
of your own case, but to subject
yourself to a very careful thought
out series of tests, 'aiming at dis
covering how many of your presenti
ments are followed by really impor
tant and significant troubles, and
how many by nothing that could be
so called; how long a time elapses
between the premonition and its sup
posed fulfilment; what your con
dition of health and your mental
mood are at the time, etc.
In a word, look first for a sub
jective explanation, remembering
that the burden of proof is and prop
erly sho-uld be, always on whatever
contradicts practically universal ex
periences.
Belief In the possession of a power
of premonition, acting independent
ly of ordinary mental processes,
grows rapidly "by what it feeds on"
—viz., supposed fulfilments. Often
it grows into an obsession which it
has fastened. He becomes afraid
of his own moods.
When an uneasy feeling comes
over him, instead of casting it off
and forgetting it as soon as possi
ble, he begins secretly to worry,
wondering what will happen, and
terrified lest the menace may be
directed against himself, or those
nearest to him. Women more of
ten than men are victims of this
morbid state of mind, which may
coexist with a disposition by no
means melancho-ly or dejected.
A real power of foreseeing the
future would take all the joy out
of life. And it would rob the joy
even though it showed nothing but
sunshine ahead. If that is what
the serpent was trying to bestow
upon Eve in the Garden of Eden we
can understand the full malignity
of his intention.
But, if a true power of pro
phetic sight wou'd be unwelcome
and intolerable, how much worse
fhust be a false and deceiving one?
So, I repeat, try to dissipate your
faith in your parcsentiments by sub
jecting them to seiontife experi
ment and logical analysis, and they
will cease to haunt you.
A "presentiment" of trouble, or
disease, affecting the person con
cerned. is a different thing: that is
explicable without any resort tc
occultism. So, too, one may foresee
a bankruptcy, or an accident without
being a "seer."
Censures Dealers For
Selling Decorations
A writer in the Veteran, the offic
ial publication of the American Le
gion in the District of Columbia,
rightly takes many dealers to task,
for the practice of selling military
decorations. He says: "If one may
bo permitted to take liberties with
holy writ thwe are a good many val
orous Americans to-day asking 'what
doth it profit a man to have signally
bared his breast to the enemy when
any cheap hero can get a medal of
distinction for a few dollars?"
Would you like to be a decorated
hero? Members of the American Le
gion who have investigated can in
form you where you can get decora
tions of war to At you out like the
proverbial and seasonal Christmas
tree, if you have the money to pay
foi them. You did not know there
were less than'2s,ooo decorated Amer
icans—in fact many fewer than that
number —it seems every soldier car
ries a distinction of some character.
Happily the American soldier has
certain ideas of manliness or there
might be several million "decorated"
heroes.
. Here in our owjn city, one of the
leading mtlitay equipment stores is
bandying out Croix de Guerre and
other exceptional distinctions at so
much per distinction. It was not
enough for some military stores to
boost the price of military equipment
to a profit where'it hurt during the
war —only to have it drop to a rock
bottom figure, that showed up the
profiteering, within a few days after
the armistice. It was not enough
for them to hold on sale and dis
play as an attraction to the Ameri
can doughboy the decorations of for
eign countries; but now to buy a few
more gallons of gasoline for their
war-hogged automobiles they are
scheming to make a few filthy pen
nies profit, selling for pure gain what
should have been the most exclusive
and signal distinction a grateful
country could have given its brave—
the Distinguished Service Cross of the
United States."
What here Is said of the city of
Washington i 3 equally true in many
other cities.
Radio and Telegraph
Operators Needed by Army
With forces operating in Europe,
in Siberia, and along the Mexican
border, the United States Army finds
itself in urgent need of radio and
telegraph operators. Demobilization
and the consequent disruption of
signal corps units, has greatly
handicapped this branch. Inter-com
munication between units, is to-day
more necessary than ever. Owing
to the rapid and wide, development
of the means of communication, and
of the technical apparatus required
it is now quite necessary to have
a complete arid well-trained person
nel. For this reason special efforts
are being made to obtain radio
operators, for service in Europe, Si
beria and with organizations along
the Mexican border.
Only qualified operators, who can
pass a technical examination, will he
enlisted; and these picked men will i
lie sent forward at once. The attrac
tiveness of service on the border, |
and its advantages are too well |
known to require further comment.
An opportunity to see Europe, as it
is at present, will never come again.
The.continent is now going through
a period of reconstruction, socially, '
politically; economically. It will be I
the subject of many, most important |
chapters in the history of human- i
ity. Service with the A. E. F. now j
offers a chance to participate in this !
epochal transformation.
In Russia, one sees a fusion of j
Slav, Tartar and Chinese; a country j
of vast distances, with great forests |
abounding with game; populous \
cities which are a revelation to the |
western habit of mind; a country j
proverbially rich in prolific soils;
and a veritable treasure house of 1
precious mineral deposits. This
country, so richly endowed by na-1
ture, will be the Mecca of com
merce in the near future. World
business interests will be seeking
the man who knows the people, con
ditions, business opportunities of Si
beria.
Service with the American forces, j
gives a man a chance to get such j
experience, as well as gain the usual j
advantages of travel. This service is
now open especially to radio opera- i
tors; any recruiting office will gladly |
give all the information desired.
