POLLUTION OF THE GREAT
LAKES BECOMING MENACE
Dr. Blue Shows Over 10,000,000 Pas
sengers Are Carried Over Waters
Each Year by More Than 1,000
Vessels
By Associated Press.
Washington, Dec. 19. —Pollution of
the Great and tributary rivers, is
becoming a serious menace to health,
according to the report yesterday
of Surgeon General Ko, er Blue, of the
Public Health service. He points out
that about 16,000,000 passengers are
carried each year over the Great Lakes
and that more than 1,600 vessels use
these waters. "It 'becomes apparent,
therefore," Dr. Blue declares, "that
these inland vessels play an important
role in the maintenance of the high
typhoid fever rate in the United States.
"The degree of pollution of the
Great Lakes and rivers contributary
toereto is becoming a serious question.
These large bodies of water are constant
ly becoming more polluted, thus lessen
ing tlheir value as a source of water
supply. Practically all of thee vessels
secure the water used aboard for all
purposes by -pumping from the lake."
It is recommended that water so
taken be purified before used for drink
ing purposes.
Dr. Blue details the work of the
medical officers under him for the year
in eradicating plague, investigating
tuberculosis, in making special inquiries
into epidemics of typhoid fever and
other diseases.
Public health officers who examined
conditions relative to the effect on per
sons w'ho come in contact with migra
tory tonsumptives found little reason to
believe that such contact has proved
injurious. He points out again that in
vestigation bv American officials does
not out the claims made by Dr.
r. F. Fried ma mi for a specific for tuber
culosis. Investigation of the Von Ruck
treatment for the same disease, he an
nounces, is incomplete.
Speaking of typhoid Or. Blue savs
that although its prevalence in this
country is being gradually reduced and
the rate JS not more than one-half of
what it was thirty years ago, it is still
higher than for some other advanced
countries. The urgent need at present
is tor rural sanitation. .Must American
cities show an appreciation of the wav
to deal with typhoid.
Study of tile use of drugs in this
country, where anti-narcotic legislation
has made statistics available, Dr. Blue
says, leads to the belief that the esti
mate of drug users has been high and
that the users of morphine and opium
in this country prfbrnbly do not num
ber more than 140,000 while the num
ber of cocaine users is protiablv "verv
much lower."

In a corner of the room the two
girls crouched fearfully. William Win

patrons.
The robber fled through the door
way leading to the corridor. He ran
toward the front door. The manager,
revolver in hand, was right after him
and fired four shorts at tho fugitive.
Outside there was an automobile in
waiting, a two-seated runabout. The
engine was running. The bandit
.jumped into it, and as the witnesses
gazed in wide-eyed wonder he sped
away. The automobile had been stolen
from B. H. Elliott, 5647 Btambie ave
nue.
Next the Liberty Bank, at Liberty
street and Freeman avenue, was rob
bed by this criminal of criminals. Turn
ing on the "hign" he sent the run
about up Freeman avenue after the
first job, and in a few minutes saunt
ered into the institution. As another
might produce a bank book, he aimed
his revolver at George Winters, of
Mooney avenue, Hyde Park, the cash
ier. Using the marble slat) of the pay
ing window as a stepping stone he suc
ceeded in getting over the seven-and
a-half foot inetal railing. The bandit
must not have liked Winters' looks, for
lie fired three shots, several striking
the cashier in the face, cutting slight
flesh wounds and inflicting powder
burns. A bullet shattered a lamp
globe. H«hl compelled Winters to assist
him to cram money $5,100 into the
satchel, already well tilled. Four thou
sand dollars more in bills was later
found in front, of the bank. Apparently
the money mad thief had carelessly
stuck it in his overcoat pockets, the
satchel being overfull, and had dropped
the currency.
Planned Third Bobbery
"Keep your mouth shut, kid, or I'll
shoot you," said the man to Kthel
Holterbaeh, 11, of 1726 Freeman ave
nue, who Vas the only other person in
the bank. was too frightened to
move, and fell to the floor when the
fellow began to shoot. She had been
making a deposit for her mother.
Following this robbery the thief had
no trouble in getting away. The Mo
hawk German bank, Fifteenth street
and Central avenue, was the object of
his third call.
That the lawbreaker was supernatur
ally cunning was demonstrated by his
actions at the Mohawk bank. The man
ager, William Cross, of 3119 Jefferson
avenue, was alone, and reading an ex
tra announ.:ig the Provident robbery
was on the lockout for the land pirate's
craft. As the runabout drew up to the
building. Jross picked up a telephone
to notify the police. Cross was talking
with detective headquarters when the
niu, h-wanted individual walked up to
the counter and heard the manager's
conversation concerning him. Cross saw
the piercing black eyes of the man
figuratively pinned upon him. It was
an uncomfortable situation.
City-Wide Search Inaugurated
"There is no chance to use the
phone, 1 suppose" inquired Hohl. Itie
bandit had Cross at his mercy and he
knew it. It was a cat and a mouse
game.
"iNone whatsoever," came the re
ply.
"Good," the visitor replied, and
darted out. Cross watched him climb
into the machine and go down the
street at a fast clip.
For nearly two hours, while detect
ives, police and bolder private citizens
peered around frantically for the un
crowned king of terror, fie drove calm
ly along. Once he stopped and bought
a newspaper and read an account of his
misdeeds. He must have passed at least
a score of policemen.
Now the scene shifts to the rooming
house of Mrs. Ida Buckhorn, at 918
West Ninth street, just a square from
the loitation of the first bank robbery.
When he had given the entire profits of
his hour's work to an accomplice, who is
yet unknown to the police, Hohl went
in tho machine to Mrs. Buckhoru's
place. Where he had engaged a room on
Tuesday, and walked to his room as
though nothing had happened.
Homer BiiL'khorn, 18 years old. is the
landlady's son, and he read in the news
paper descriptions that the burglar wore
rubber-soled shoes. The youth notified
the police.
The police surrounded the dwelling.
Patrolman Knaul entered. He went up
to Hohl's room, on the second floor, not
anticipating resistance. As Knaul
opened the door of the 'bandit's apart
ment the robber stepped toward him, an
automatic revolver in each hand, and
began to shoot. Knaul was one of the
gamest members of the force, but he
could not withstand the leaden inferno
poured at him. Knaul retreated (|own
stairs, bleeding freely.
Faced Hail of Bullets
The bandit came down stairs after
Knaul and is thought to have shot the
patrolman after he knew Knaul was
sorely wounded. Brushing past the offi
cer tho desperado, seeing the other offi
cers and fearing them not, sought the
street. Knaul, fact nearing unconscious
ness, braced himself against the front
door and fired at the robber, an
swered the shot.
There was still a smile on the ban
dit's countenance as he advanced down
tho front steps outside the house into
the hail of bullets from the policemen's
gnn«. He leaped to the pavement and
ran to Freeman avenue.
The police were after him instantly.
He got a good lead and disappeared

Richmond and Fillmore streets the
trusty automobile was in waiting. He
cranked it up and left his pursuers be
hind. While in flight the bandit occa
sionally turned to fire at the police.
Again it was thought that the bandit
had escaped.
Great was the surprise of the 'blue
coats when, hardly a moment later a
snialj, covered auto appeared at the
west side of Ninth and Freeman avenue.
In it was the bandit. He had gone
around the short Bquare bounded on
the east and west by Freeman avenue
and Carr street and was headed for the
spot where Patrolman Knaul lay '
On Nintlh street, between Freeman
and Carr, the bandit's machine had
struck a telephone pole, due to his poor
driving. With the utter dare-devilish
ness that characterized his entire day's
adventure, he was returning to repeat
his battle with the law, if necessary.
The auto was running on three wheels
at full speed. One wheel had been shat
tered 'by t'he encounter with the pole.
Policeman Opened Fire
Patrolman Ohase took an advantage
ous position and 'began shooting at the
rear of the vehicle. The bandit pump
ed bullets back at him. With his left
hand the robber guided the car.
Crossing Freeman avenue, which is
granite paved, the machine swerved. An
instant later it. crasihed into the curb
ing. Firemen from a nearby engine
house rushed out and found Patrolman
Chase flourishing his revolver and Hohl
lying in the bottom of the machine. The
dying bandit was carried into the en
gine house. He v."as conscious, yet he
would not speak. The newspaper with
the 'blood-spattered story of his crime
carnival was in the auto. When they
went to him first his rig<ht hand stiil
clutched the revolver and the left hand
maintained its tight grip on the steer
ing wheel.
Twx> cleanly driven bullet holes were
in the isinglass of the back curtain of
the car. Another tiny opening was in
a side curtain. The seat of the vehicle
was drenched in Hohl 's 'blood.
The Harrisburg Polyclinic Dispensary
will be open daily except Sunday at
3 p. m., at its new location, Front and
Harris streets, for the free treatment
of the worthy poor.
WOMAN SMOKER
BURNS TO DEATH
Coatiaued From FlrM I'ase.
all the clothing had been burned from
her body and nothing remained but
her shoes. She was terri'blv burned and
she suffered intense agony through
out the night and until her death early
this morning.
A physician called iu shortly after
the fire had been extinguished said
the woman could not live and added
that her condition would not permit
her being removed to the Carlisle Hos
pital. In her desperate effort to put
out the fire, the old lady fell on the
bed, setting fire to the bed clothing
and the carpet.
Three fire companies responded to an
alarm sent from the almshouse tout the
inmates at the home had beaten out t)he
blase by the time the firemen arrived.
The loss to tlbe 'building and furnish
ings is trifling.
Mrs. Kimmons, so far as could be
learned 'by county official, was a widow
with no surviving children. She had
been an inmate at the home aJbout one
year.
Rules at the almshouse will not per
mit the inmates to smoke in their 'bed
rooms, a-nd it was the fear o<t being ex
cluded from the home and thrown i»pon
her own resources as a penalty for vio
lating that rule, which caused the wom
an to delav in summoning aw.
Mrs. Kimmons formerly was a resi
dent of Huntadale, Cumberland connty.

BOYS LEAD POLICE TO
PLACE OFJIDDEN COLD
Continued From Fimt Page.
Patrolmen Hiram Michaels, of Lancas
ter, and Adam Souillard, of Royal ton.
At the close of the preliminary hearing
and immediately subsequent to the
Squire's decision to hold the youthful
offenders for court, the boys insisted
upon telling how "funny" it is to rob
and then fool the police. The po.ice
quote Dasher as saying:
"I felt real good when Souillard
passed me several times after we had
cracked that car and did not speak to
me. The la<st time I saw him before
we were pinched he did not speak and
I thought he was not wise; but then
when he found those empty sweet po
tato crates, which we hid in a drain
pipe, I though the jig was up."
The police say that at one at a
time the boys told how they rifled the
clothes of several foreigners while the
aliens were in bathing "in the Susque
hanna river below Royalton, last sum
mer . They stole Italian gold money,
liid some of the coins beneath a roc'k
along the Susquehanna river Shore and
gave the rest to a vouueer lad to "rdav
with." *
Tell of Other Thefts
L«ate yesterday afternoon the of
fenders accompanied the police to the
place where seven gold coins were hid
den, chopped away the ice and sur
readied the money to their captors.
In another story the police declare
the boys admitted stealing a watch,
money and a pair of shoes from two
farmer boys, one by tho name of Kin
sey and the other Metzger. This rob
bery also was committed while the vic
tims were in bathing.
The three boys are said also to have
confessed to robbing a Middletown
clothing store and to stealing t"WO
calves from John Horwitz, a Middle
town butcher.
The mother of the Seibert boys, as
■well as other relatives of the trio, tes
tified against the defendants, Mrs.
Serbert saying the lads brought the loot
to the Seiibert home and admitted to her
that '' we just cracked a car."

Kris Will Distribute Gifts Among
Children There Nert Week
Santa Claus and his reindeers aro
'headed for Harrieiburg, according to a
letter received by Manager Hopkins,
in which it is stated that the Jolly Old
Saint Nick is no>w on his way to this
city, via. the cloud route, and that lie
•will go dawn the Orpheum chimney
sometime next Sunday night. He will
have with him myriads of toys, some
thing to delight each igjrl and boy,
and 'beginning with the Monday mat
inee, Santa will appear on the Orpheum
stage and will have something nice
and something worth keeping for each
girl and boy in any pairt of the house.
And then he will be on the job Tues
day, Wednesday and Thursday—each
matinee during the week prior to
Ohristmas Day.
Also, when the management decided
to bring the "Dream Pirates," a
rollicking juvenile production to the
Orplheiim, thev had Younig Harrisburg
in mind, to say nothing of Derkin's
animal circus, a veritable menagerie of
educated animals, offering one of the
greatest "kid" attractions in vaude
ville. -
in accordance with their annual cus
tom, the Orpheum management is also
arranging to give a treat to Harris
burg 1 ! orptw)[i children, its cripples and
'little inmates at the various chairitaible
institutions by giving them a free the
atre party on Tyesdav aifternoon. Tho
children will be privileged to see the
performance as well as receive tfheir
gifts from Santa Glaus.
The interior of the theatre will look
its 'best. The yuletide spirit will be at
its height in the elaborate and festive

go a long way toward adding a genu- j
ine Christmas touch.
