We are afraid there may _be some hunters who will disregard this provision of law and we want to caution all licensed hunters to be sure to wear the ta j accompanying all licenses, as provided for bv law. The State has provided quite sufficient of the license blanks and tags to the several county treasurers, so that there is no need of huuters not being equip ped.

KNOX HAS PRAISE FOR THE COLONEL 4 on tinned Front Flint only regret that, as a great national as- | 'set. his strength is not being conserved for future contests with the common j enemy whose incompetent admiaistra- j tion of national affairs has rendered anaemie the young giant nation of the 1 world upon the threshhold of his great- I est opportunity.' Speaks for Entire Republican Ticket Mr. Knox spoke for the entire Re ! publican ticket. Speaking of Boies Pen ] . rose, Republican candidate for United j 'States Senator, Mr. Knox said: "The great charge which his enemies ; hurl against him is that he is a po- ! litical boss. Colonel Roosevelt and i President Wilson are not likely to go! , down in history as great models of po- j litical modesty and self-effacement. (>f course, thev profess their gra Illation to I the class leaders, but it must not be forgotten that both have been the re cipient of favors of bosses.'' Mr. Knox criticised the Democratic j party for holding the Republican party ! responsible for certain situations in con- i u oction with American affairs. '"No 1 party." he said, "has The right to im peril the equilibrium of our alternation al relations by subjecting them to the rough and perilous course of domestic politics." Tribute to Taft Administration "No liner tribute could be paid to the Taft administration of oar foreign affairs.' Mr Knox continued, "than did President Wilson in his message to his first regular session of Congress. The country,' Mr. Wilon said, 'I am thankful to say, is at peace with ail the world.' "But, with the incoming of the pres ent Administration, everything was changed. * * * The new Administration almost completely shattered this smoothly-working machinery, and there fell with it the work which had been accomplished.'' Mr. Knox had much to say in criti cism of the present Administration's Mexican policy. "That we are today at peace with Mexico is not because of •watchful waiting,' but in spite of it." he said. "Is any one so ignorant as to suppose that if we had treated any i able-bodied nation in the world as we | have treated Mexico that we would not now be at war with that Power?"

When he left the court room Sites j requested his father to remain with | him. at his hoarding house, 1 007 Cap- I ital street, during last night and the ; elder Mr. Sites had agreed to this.

COLONIAL TO RAVE MORE AND BETTER VAUDEVILLE Management Announces Change In Pol icy Under Which There Will Be an Additional Act oa Each Bill All of Which Will Be More Costly The clamor of many local theatre goers lor a more pretentious vaudeville bill ami the shorter film service at the Colonial theatre has resulted in a de cided departure in the kind of enter tainment to be provided for patrons of that playhouse. Wilnior & Vincent who during the last month have been experimenting to determine the type of entertainment most popular at the Co lonial, have decided to put in bigger and more costly vaudeville attractions. These vaudeville acts are to be booked out of the Keith Hooking Oflice and they are to be four in number. Although this is only one more aft than was shown heretofore, it is an nounced these four acts will be far superior to those that have been ex hibited in the past. The management declares that these features will all be worthy of places on high class vaude ville bills and that each program will have its headliner. There will not only be improved vaudeville, but improvement in the plan of presenting these nitrations. The four acts will follow each other without a moving picture shown be tween. The moving picture features will be shown before and after the vaudeville show. The hours of the Colonial's running will be continuous as usual. From 11 o clock until 2."0 the first run of li censed films will be exhibited, and the entertainment will be the picture show on i v. At 2.30 the first vaudeville bill of the day will begin, all four acta being presented, one after the other, aud then the pictures will follow. During the hours of 6 to 7 o'clock, pictures only, will be presented. At 7 o'clock the first vaudeville bill of the evening will be offered and after the pictures for this performance are shown a sec ond complete vaudeville bill will be put on beginning at it o'clock. The vaudeville bills will be changed twice weekly as before, on Monday and Thursdav. The proposed improvement in the vaudeville offerings is indicated by a glance over the bookings made for the first week. For instance, the feature of the first half of the week will be a pleasing n|iniature musical comedy call ed "The Beile Boys and the Beles." The act requires a clever cast of come dians and pretty girls and also an at tractive stage setting. It is described as one of those catchy features with Rood /nil anil new songs. Miller and Tempest, a widely known pair of song, comedy and patter artists, wiil also ap pear. A 1 Kdwards, a black faced come dians. and hear and Fields, in comedy, songs and dances, will complete the roster for the first half of the week. i The vaudeville bill for the last half jof the week will be headed off by the I Three Musical KUisons, offering a j picturesque musical novelty. This at traction has scored manv success's in leading vaudeville theatres. The clever ! novelties supporting it will be present jed .lames Kennedy and Company, Who were favorites at the Orpheu'm two seasons ago and who will present i their new comedv called " lack -wift;" i Mahonev and Tremont, in a singing and dancing skit, called "At the De partment Store," and the Aerial Barbers, sensation aerial gymnasts.

Each section of frame work soon bail a gang of men nailing and bolting vigorously. The second center section presented a problem. A telegraph pole full of wires is just out side the line aim the section had to be raised in parts and nailed together while it was standing insecurely. This made ;t necessary lor some one to crawl 1o the height of 25 feet to do the work that was accomplished on tile ground in the casts of the other sec tions, John I*. Guyer, clerk to the Board of Poor Directors, undertook the dangerous task, lie had finished that job at noon. Jn the meantime the con stantly increasing crowd of workmen had made the other sections ready for raising A foreman would yell "Ready!" and in a minute a hundred hatchet wielders would Irop the tools and help raise a section. After the first few were up it seemed that every thirty minutes another would be ready to be raised and the men would go to that one and in a short time .it would be in place. Worked in Stiff Collars When the central sections were so far toward completion that the carpeii ters got in each other s way, the fore men turned their attention to triangu lar central roof sections, which fit on the rop of the two highest uprights in the center of the tabernacle. At 11 o'clock the first upright was in place on the North street side and in thirty minutes more thp second roof section was -n place. In the meantime the smaller upright sectious were going up and the work men were running, from the raising of onp upright section to the rope on the windlass which was pulling the center sections into place. Fifty men would get hold of the rope on the windlass. By noon there were but four upright sectious remaining to be set in place and immediately after luncheon the men started work on the roof timbers. There were as many spectators this morning as men engaged on the work and the convenient piles of lumber made excellent grandstands for the idle ones. Hundreds stayed through out the morning, while others stopped for a passing glance. Some who went to see remained to work and before the morning was half gone, spectators were treated to some unusual sights. The members of a crew with fifteen pound sledge hammers driving stakes for braces were wearing white shirts, stiff white collars and bow ties. That had nothing to do with their abiiity to drive stakes, however, as they seemed to be old hands at it, making short work of the task. Clergymen in Overalls There weie many white shirts. Some of the hardest workers were wear ing clerical garb. One clergyman with a nail pouch was wearing a coat atop of that. Some clergymen were garbed in overalls from head to foot, but few of them had regulation carpenter's hats on. Somehow a black derby hat does not fit into the picture of a carpenter, but the wearers worked just as effectively. A score or more of old hands at the barn-raising business were wearing their regular working outfits, dirty and begrimed from much use. In strange contrast to these men were bright, new. shiny nail pouches distributed to the green hands by an enterprising mer chant. It seemed that there were not qtiite enough of these to go around and one clergyman, wearing a silk shirt, khaki trousers and leggings, had his wife's handbag around his waist, filled with 20-penny nails. The Rev. John Henrv Raugherty. pastor of the Ridge Avenue Methodist church, was in charge of the commis sary department for the workers and he saw to it that the men were mar shaJed to his church at Sixth and Herr streets for the noonday meal. There was a sight to behold. There were seats for 250 men in the social hall of the church. Ladies from all of the co-operating churches were on hand to serve the hungry men. And what a menu! Roast beef, sal ad, potatoes boiled in salt water—the ladies insisted that the salt water be mentioned—stewed corn and hot cof fee. There were not enough water glasses on hand, so the men had to drink coffee, and, what's more, but two pies, were sent in. Nobody would say who got the pies. There were six cakes, far too few for that crowd of men, if all were to share in the deli caries. Cheer Message From Dr. Stough At noon it was reported to the la dies that 400 men would be on hand to be fed. Everything was in readiness when Mrs. K. Z. Gross drove up in an automobile and announced that the Rev. mi frown are not difficult to pick out. I To locate the comet, follow the dotted lines of the diagram from the handle of the Dipper down to the star called IKing Charles' Heart. On October 9 the jcouiet was quite close to this star and just above it. The comet is moving iver to the left in the direction of jArcturus. Its position to-night is in-' licated on the drawing as well as the jnositiou it will occupy October 20. It lis easy to estimate its place for any [intermediate date. The comet has been retreating rnp idly from the earth since October 3 |when it was closest to us but is still i ibont one-third as bright as Halley's |'oinet iti 1910. The tail is no longer •onspicuous and the appearance is more that of a star surrounded by a faint |haze. ; Mr. Dougherty was marshaling the first | 175 for dinner. There was much scur | iving about when that news was spread j around but there was no confusion, so systematically hail everything been ar ; ranged. \V. W. Shannon, of Berwick, a repre sentative of the Stough party, this | morning received the following tele gram from the Stough party iu Du bois: I "May God's blessing be upon you and assembled workers." Mr. Shannon replied: "Our God supplied all our needs —even weather. Greatest day in religious life in Har risburg. Dubois has our prayer.'' The greeting from the Stough party and the reply were read during the din ner and created a great stir, cheers ringing for the evangelist and for Mr, ,Shannon. The dinner opened with a prayer and the Doxology was sung. Aside from the actual'work of build ing the tabernacle there were several | incidents that made the men even more I hungry, one of them being when a small j chicken invaded the confines of the building. It entered North street and went all the way to the rear end I through a gauntlet of clergymen who chased it merrily but could not get i their hands on it. Carpenter 82 Years Old There were many gray-bearded men j among the workers, all of them nailing vigorously. The first on hand was ! Charles Boyer, member of the Board of Poor Directors. He had his square, saw and hammer. Dr. C. W. Swing his white beard flowing over his chest,, worked throughout the morning. The oldest carpenter by profession who J turned up to help build the tabernacle | was Jacob Lehman, 82 years old, of I'elibrooks His appearance caused a j deal of enthusiastic comment. The ladies were not left out of the | actual work of building. Mrs. E. A. G. j Bossier, wife of the pastor of the State | Street. United Brethren church, wanted I to help and she was permitted to insert a bolt in an upright. Her companion, Miss Alice Buffington, not to be out done, also made fast a bolt j The tabernacle faces North street j and the site is bounded hv Filbert i street and Cowden street, and extends about fifty feet south of North alley, i which cuts through the building. In* j eluding space for the choir of 1,500, ! the place will seat comfortably 7,500 , persons. Entrances and exits will be I placed on all sides. Covering the floor will be loads of sawdust. This will j level the ground which is slightly | hilly, and cover the floor braces. The building is 172 feet wide and i 240 feet long, the peak of the roof j being 26 feet high, sloping to a height lof nine feet on the sides. Men in j charge of the work do not expect that | much more than the framework will I be in place M>-da,v. On Monday a start j will be made toward sheeting the side* j and the roof.
