NEWS OF S AIL BUT ONE COUNCILMAN VOTE TO RETAIN JONES! Vction of the Steelton Coum.il in Re instating Suspended Policeman Is Taken Despite the Opposition of Burgess Wigfield Borough Council put one over 011 Burgess Wiglieid last evening, when, with but oue dissenting voice, it was decided to retain Patrolman Jones, who was suspended in July by the Burgess, reinstated in August by the Police com mittee of Council, given a two weeks' vacation a short time ago and will now be back 011 the job. The causes assigned by Burgess Wig field when he ti rat suspended the police man were insubordination and appear ing for duty while under the influence of liquor. After the Police committee of Council had given the suspended bluccoat a hearing it reinstated him. The matter was finally brought to the attention of Council and it was decided by that body, after an opinion from Borough Solicitor Wickersham, that the Hist proceedings were unlawful and or dered another investigation made by the Police committee. The action ta ken last night was upon the report of the ti tidings of the committee at its last examination. Last night Chairman Nelley, of the Police committee, ventured his opinion that James Gordon and William Lick man. two of the witnesses, were preju diced against the patrolman, that a for eign witness was excited when the events on which he testified occurred and that another witness furnished tes timony that bad no bearing on the case. He also criticised the methods used by the Burgess ;u gathering evi dence against Jones. The foreigner, who was said to have been excited, was the bridegroom at a wedding, dur ing the celebration of which some of the offenses were said to have been committed. During this celebration. Chairman Nelley said, there were more iutoxi cauts than were sold in any hotel in the borough in two weeks. The '' re freshments,'' he said, included 15 bar rels of !beer, eight eases of bottled beer snd J3S.SO worth of whiskey. Councilman Wagenbach asked why there were four policemen at the wed ding celebration and why was it nec essary for any of them to go into the cellar. "Something is not quite right," he said. A vote on tlu' motion of Chairman Nelley to retain the patrolman was ta kon and the only dissenting vote audi ble was that of Councilman Reisch. Following the vote Burgess Wigfield, given the privilege of the floor, de clared : "I want efficiency and the taxpayers wan: efficiency iu the police force, and T never thought that I would have to fight so hard 10 get it. I want to say that I am going \o control the police department and have efficiency if it is the last thing I do on earth." In his report last evening Fire Chief Shupp recommended that some arrange ment should be made with the commis sioners of Swata - . a township to pay the local fire department for its services ,in giving fire protection tr> the town ship districts adjoining the borough. The sense of his communication was that, although tie local tiremen have al ways been willing to fight tires in the township districts, they have received no assistance from the township and, on the contrary, have been hindered iu their operations. In recent years the local department has handled several big tires on Mohn street, in Swatara township, and at one. of these fires it was necessary for the tiremen to turn a stream into the crowd to prevent the onlookers from standing on the hose and hampering them. A copy of the {.art of the tire chief's report bearing on the matter will be sent to the township commis sion. Tiie ordinance establishing a grade on Reading strec- between Pine street and Adams street was passed on second reading. The traffic ordinance and the ordinance providing for the removal of snow were reported still in the hands of committees. The proposed changes in the system on street lighting -were not taken up last evening. Councilman Henderson reported that the street paving had been about com pleted and that .1 few details yet re mained to be added. The work has proven satisfactory and will be accept ed when these details are finished. T. W.

IF YOU WANT LAUCHS ALL THE TIME CO TO ORPBEUM Week's Bill at Vaudeville House Is Chockfull of Merriment—"The Lawn Party" a Feature That Es pecially Helps the Fun-making The bill ntythe Orpheum theatre this week has no tears, no melodrama, noth ing heavy; but it is chockfull of laughs. Indeed, it provides one of the beet, if not the best, vaudeville entertainment offered to Ilurrisburg this season. There is not a dull moment at any time and "something new'' is served up almost every minute. There is much ground for argument as to what is the best attraction, but "The Lawn Party,," a review, with a number of capable, although juvenile, actors and singers, has a good claim to first plaie. It is a. happy combination of horseplay, dancing and take-offs in the big stage stars. Willintn J. Doolev. featured in the act, is as funny a ground tumbler as Orpheum patrons have seen for years and in the role of an intoxicated tango teacher creates an uproar of merriment. Ruth Rove, who "does a single' r in front of a "drop," comes fully up to expectations based on the advertise ments. Her long run of her act in the Palace in New York proved that the vaudeville world thinks something of her and her appearance here clinched .lie argument, ller songs are new and rendered : n a catchy way. The song. "The War iu Schneider's Grocery Store," in which the Bismarck herring push the French peas off the shelf, while the frankfurters, the "dogs of war," " waof, woof" around is a delightful absurdity.
