Plans for Academy Smoker
For profoablv the first time in its
long and eventful history, the Harris-
Vmrg Academy will have an "Acade
my night" next Monday, at which the
alumni and former students of the, in
stitution. which owes its origin to John
Harris, the founder of Harrisburg, will
gather and talk over old times. The
arrangements aie being made 'by Dr.
Arthur E. Brown, the headmaster, and
si committee of the younger alumni, an"
every effort has been made to reach ev
ery man who was ever registered as a
student at the Academy.
It is recognized that a school which
has had such a long career as the
Academy must necessarily have some
former students whose names are not
on the lists which have been gathered
in the las! few months, and the commit
tee earnestly hopes that, whether any
former students receive invitations or
not. they will show up at the Academy
on December 28.
Already many of the former stu
dents have announced they will be on
hand. There wilf be reunions of stu
dents who attended the Veademy back
in the sixties and the seventies and the
men of the eighties and the nineties
will be out in force to show the stu
dents of the last decade that their in
terest in the old school is still strong.
The committee in charge has request
ed that former students who have not
deceived invitations send in their names
so that the list may bo made complete.
The names may be sent to Dr. Brown
or to John Smith Ehrman B. Mitchell
find William C. buiilap, the committee
sietively in charge of the arrangements.

Old Time Sea Food
A glance at the fish shops to-day
arouses the reflection that one could
nn\e lasted with fa more variety in
the middle ages. Where is now the
whale of yesteryear that was roasted
! and served on the s pit, or boiled with
pca.», the tongue and tail being the
choicest parts The porpoise, too, was
a roya l ! dish, roasted whole and eaten
with mustard, when Henry VII was
King, and so was the grampus or sea
wolf. The lamprey, after its one dra
matic and regicidal performance, seems
•to 'have lost its popularity, and nobody
nowadays i? anxious to eat the limpet.
Many fish, however, ::eem to have en
dured throughout tin: ages, such as the
sprat and herring, eaten especially in
Lent; the oyster (officially a fish) and
the anchovy, sternly anathematized by
old Toibias Venner in 1620 as "food
for drunkards."—London Standard.

ANOTHER SESSION
WILL BE NEEDED
Old Board of Pardons, Unable to Com
plete Its Work Before Christinas,!
Will Hold Its Final Meeting on 1
Wednesday, January 6
As the session of the Board of Par
dons was albout to close yesterday aft
ernoon, Lieutenant Coventor Reynolds
announced that owing to the fact that
all of the cases had not been consider
ed, because of the iillness of Secretary'
McAfee, another session will be held
on Wednesday, January 6, when all of
the business of the Board will be closed
Hp and nothing loft for the new Board,
which will come into existence on Jan
uary 19.
The last request made of the Board |
yesterday was that it ta'ke up the case |
of David Kiauffman, the young man J
who was convicted of playing the dim- :
flam game in Harrisiburg aibout a year |
ago and sent to the penitentiary, j
KaufFman's naime was not on the reg
ular list, and it haxt been understood ;
that District Attorney Stroup intended !
to appose it, but he was not preseut.,
David B. Griffith, a Philadelphia at-1
torney, asked that the case be heard, j
and Lieutenant Governor Reynolds,
speakimg for the Board, declined to !
consider it unless Mr. Strouip was on
hand. 'Griffith said he would call Mr. !
Strouip on the phone and have him on j
hand in a short time, but after using I
the phone in an adjoining room he re- ;
turned with the information that Mr.!
Stroup was very busy on other matters
and could not be present.
"We are very sorry that this case'
could not'be heard," said Mr. Griffith.
"This young mam's father is waiting;
for 'him in New York, and—"
"Yes," broke in Lieutenant Gov-1
ernor Reynolds, "and there are a good ;
many other fathers who are waiting
on their sons whose cases have 'been
heard, but t'heir cases are on the cal
endar in reg'ular order.—
That settled the Kauffnwui care tin- 1
til January when it will come up as
unfinished business.
Pardons as Christmas Gifts
The pardons the Board recommend
ed will go to the Governor as soon as j
the Teasons can be miade out, and an '
effort will be made to get the men par- j
doned out of prison before Christinas
Day.
The'board recommended commutation
of the deatih sentences of 'Malena iMas
sa, Schuylkill, condemned to be hauged
on January 5, after he had 'been respit
ed 'fivo times to allow his case to be
considered: of Isaiah Croason, Fayette,
condemned to ibe hanged on January 7,
and of Germania Aeitellio, Clearfield,
sentenced to the electric chair.
To Rocc.o Tassone, Lancaster, con
demned to be electrocuted, commutation
was denied.
Gregario Rizzato, Philadelphia, son
tenten'ced to electrocution, was granted
a rehearing, and the cases of Raphael
Perrie, Philadelphia, and A. 8. Von
Neida, granted commutation some years
ago. and now asking pardon, were hold
under advisement.
