A Tine Program Arranged for tiie Day
and Evening—Public Reception
and Entertainment
Friday. January ], 1915, will be a
gala day iu the history of the Young
Men's Christ';an Association, Second
and Locust streets. The occasion will
mark the sixtieth annual New Year's
celebration in honor of the -member and
their friends. There will be a ptfblie

eutire building will be thrown oi>eu
to the public, except the dormitory
system. M«en. women and children will
be welcomed, regardless of color, , lass,
clique or creed. The association is de
sirous of reaching the unemployed men
of the city, and to all such a cordial
invitation is extended for f'nem to visit
tiie building and partake of the asso
ciation's hospitality. At 3 o'clock in
the afternoon a gymnasium exhibition
«i!l be given under t:ie auspices of the
physical department and basketball

Toe Harrisburg association is noted for

YOUNG FORGER WHOSE
MIND IS BLANK AFTER
ADMITTING TO CRIMES
MISS LAURA CATHEBMAN iy
In the recent arrest at Kanaas City. Mo.,
of M<.»s l.aura Cathermun, t we.ny-five
years old, th« police and physicians have
been piung«d Into an intricate web of for
gery mysteries. Since the day ot her ar
rtst wtion after a severe examination that
lasted all afternoon she confessed the
yours woman's mind has been to all out
ward appearances a total blank.
During the time she has been under the
surveillance of physicians and specialists
city and private detectives have checked
up forgeries and thefts amounting to be
tween $6,000 and JT.OOO Xot one cent of
the money has been recovered, and the
detectives have been searching the vaults
and safe deposit boxes in all the bunks for
the hiding place.
As far as learned, the young woman took
no one into her confidence, and her father
says she did cot spend the money. Her
father, Frank Oatherman, lb an air expert
for the Santa Fa -llroad here and asserts
that his daughter had har.died Jo.OOO of his
savings that cannot be found.
PBOVED HIS THEORY
Tragic Climax in a Murder Trial, but It
Saved the Accused
Tne a me of realism was reached,
though i>\ a -cl ient, in a criminal trial
that took jdacc a number of years
at T-iebanon, O.
Two men had a personal encounter.
One of thorn after vainly trying to
draw his t istol from his hit> pocket
turned to dee. A moment later he fell,
shot in the smail -of the back. One
chamber of his pistol was found to
have been fired. H : s assailant was tried
for murder.
The defense contended that the man
had shot himself while trying to draw
his pistol, which had become entangled
in the Uninp of the po.-ket. and that the
prisoner's shot- ha i not takeu effect.
The prosecution contended that smch
a wound could not have tieen self in
flicted.
The defeudaut s counsel, l lenient L.
Vallandigham. undertook to demon
strate to the turv juct how the dead
man's pistol Tiad hutvjr in the po.ket
and just how possible it was to inflict
sui h n wound. £>ud lenly there was a
loud report, and the lawyer sank to
the floor. The ball had entered the
back almost in the identical c po: where
the dead man had been shot.
Tiie defendant was acquitted. \Mr.
Vallandigham die i.—Exchange.

T. S. Mum Says Measure Promotes
09ib Conflict and Public Extrava
gance—Should Not Be Impoaod
Upon the Poor
Bji Associated f*rej«.
Princeton, N. ,1., l»oc. ISO. —The fed-1
; era! income tax. for which only 357,-
598 returns were received last your, is
rejtchitift direvtlv lees than one-half of
one jH'r cent, of the po|Hilntiou, pro
motes class conflict and pwhlic extra
vagance, a»il is a feeble instrument
with which to reduce swollen fortunes,
in the opinion of T. S. Adams, member
| of the Wisconsin State Tax (.'omtnis
i sion, in an address here before the
American Kconomic Association here.
Mr. Adams spoke on "The Kffect ot
; luvoitie and Inheritance Taxes on the
; liistribution of Wealth."
"The present federal income tax ia
a ciass tax and class taxes breed ex
travagance," he said. ''lt deserves ap
proval front almost every other stand
; point, but in this respect' it needs eour
! ajreous correction. Income taxes should
| not be levied upon the poor —but they
; should be levied upon all the rich, i. e.,
! upon everyone with income exceeding
i the ,imount required by the American
standard of living. An income tax fall
i iti£ ou all the rich, so defined, would
be the most potent instrument procur
able for inspiring and maintaining an
effective interest in the conduct of gov
ernment.
"If swollen fortuned nrp bail, they
should bo attacked directly and the
cause removed. To lot them accumulate
and then tax them 10 per cent, snuacks
ot hypocrisy, and the attempt to ma&e
the income tax do the work of social
reform is apt to spoil the income tax.
lis virtues are lisvAl. In my opinion the
income tax could perform its best serv
ice as a substitute for the |>ersonai
property tax as applied to business en
terprise. The Joss in modern business
is enormous, the necessary hazards are
grout. and a strikingly large proportion
of concerns in some lines constantly
totter 011 the brink of bankruptcy. To
ail such margin*! enterprises the prop
erty tax is remorseless. It falls on
property as much whether it is produo
tive or unproductive, whether it is
owned free or heavily on< .nnberod,
whether it is jiart of a trustworthy hut
desperate uetv business venture or part
of the salvage of a dying concern. The
property tax disoura.ges experiment,
penalizes industrial pioneering, retards
production, reduces suipplv and increas
es prices. In short, it is partly shifted
to consumers, reduces the amount of
wealth to be divided and adversely af
fects the distribution of what is pro
duced. In comparison the income tax
wrests little or nothing from the new.
the experimental or the unfortunate
uumihv* enterprise: it helus not. onJy
the small business man, but large con
cerns ij new and hazardous underta-k
--ings. It heli>s —or abtains from burden
ing—every business enterprise in a IvaJ
year.
••The property tax j«ut. the State in
the jHisition of a preferred creditor and
n harsh one. Its dues must be paid bv
the cosiness man in the development
period of the busiuess, before profits
are earned, and later whether profits
are earned or not. The income tax.
however, presents the State in the at
titude of a partner or profit-sharer The
first attitude is not whoolv indefen
sn.le, nor altogether unfortunate. Hut 1
with respect to business enterprise it :
nee.is to be softened by increasing em
pha-:s upon ability to pay. There is
a .rowing teeling among the operators
and owners of public utilities that gov
ernment ownership is inevitable. This
toe ling or movement is measurab'.v
stimulated by the rigors of the prop
erty tax. The railroads of this coun-,
try. for instance, are at present pav
ing over 16 per cent, of their net
earnings in taxes, and in some States'
the proportion exceeds L'O per cent. If ;
our tax system gave greater scope to
ihe ne, mconif principle, it would ma-1
terialh enhance the chances of private:
ownership and operation. The income I
tax works for the retention of private
management; it makes the State' not a 1
! referred creditor, and not the sole'
owner, hut a full-fledged and sympath
tic partner in private Industry." |

bam that there would still be some- j
thing in store, which this greatest of j
American baritones could supply, for
he is a singer, poet and actor, all in

is Bispham that ho creates a dramatic
atmosphere on the concert platform ;
and succeeds in conjuring up the fig- i
urc of his song in place of a conveu- j
tional gentleman in evening dress, j
' Bispham gives one of his uuique con-!

The Manuscript Producing Company

! and vivid drama of New York life af :
i the Majestic, Saturday, matinee und
night. Taking for their theme woman's
present day desire for clothes, and her
mania for keeping up with the social
procession, no matter the cost, the
authors have buiHded a four-act drama
of intense cumulative interest and
startling climaxes. "To-day" is pri
marily an exposition of a certain
phase of' New York life, the existence
| of which has never t)«yn denied and
! in addition offers a convincing ehar
-1 actor study of a vain, shallow, selfish
wife that has no counterpart on the
stage.
"To-day" comes here after enjoy
ing the enviable distinction of being'
the drama longest on the boards in :
New York dwring the theatrical veari
1913-14. It is not a white slave piav,
nor is it a "red Jight" drama, but it
does discuss graphically and dra.niatic
j ally the feminine desire for finery and
its acquisition and discloses in no un
certain way the dangers attendant j
thereto.

tie Marv met grown-ups und children 1
alike, and presented a nice candy treat j
for all the little folks. The "Than-j
houser Kid" is one of the very iuter-1
estiiig acts of the most meritorious bill |
seen at the Locust street play j
house. Kitty Gordon, of course, is the ,
'bill's most glittering star. Soch gor-1
