Business Started in IKIfl
The Hiekok Company was founded
by William O. llickok, long a promi
nent man in Harrisburg's affairs, who
lived to see his modest venture grow to
one of the most famous plants in the
country, sending its manufactures to all
parts of the world.- At the start, in
1846, Mr. Hiekok used for the plant a
modest frame building at North street
and the railroad, but the demand for
his products spread so rapidly that he
kept enlarging the plant until it em
braced the territory it now occupies.
At first he made agriculture machin
ery, ruling machines, ruling pens, school
furniture and cider presses, the latter
being in great demand the world over.
The same may bo said of the ruling
machines made by him, they being in
use in every civilized country to tliis
day.
The many improvements to these ma
chines were all of vMr. Hiekok's inven
tion or the products of the brains of
t'he young men who served as appren
tices under him. He made it a point to
encourage inventive genius in an em
ploye whenever he saw an inclination in
that direction.
On the death of the elder Hicikok
I his son, William O. Hiekok, Jr., as
sumed the management of the company
and retained it nntil his death when
the plant was organized as a corpor
ation with William Orville /Hiekok 111,
as the president—a position lie now
holds—and with his 'brother, Ross A.
Hiekok, manager of the operations of
the plant.

STREAMS ARE OUT
OF THEIR BANKS
Vatican Quarter of Rome Generally
Flooded and Waters In the Streets
Around St, Peter's Have Risen to
Nearly Five Feet
/ty Associated Pi cas,
Rome, Feb. 15, 1.36 1». M.—The
flood waters in the streets around St.
Peter's nave risen to a height of four
leet and eleven inches. Several walls
have collapsed, but without serious
consequences.
Home, Feb. 15, 2.65 A. M. —Italy,
having just passed through a period of
grave anxiety ns a result of destruc
tive earthquakes, is now facing a new
peril in tlio form of floods. Kvery
whero streams are out of their banks,
due to heavy rain storms, which 'have
continued for several days.
In ttho low lying quarters the people
have been driven from their homes or
are prisoners in the upper stories of
their houses. The military authorities
have taken cogniz-ince of the situation
and troops have been sent to aid in res
cue work and to provide food to suf
ferers cut off from supplies.
River Fifty Feet Out of Banks
In Rome the river Tiber is more t'lian
fifty feet out of its normal banks and
is rising at the rate'of two inches an
hour. The one bright snot in the situa
tion is that tJhe weather, ugly to-day,
showed signs of clearing and this gives
hope that the waters will soon recede.
The Leonine city, as the Vatican quar
ter of Home is called, is in tihe lower
•part of the town and this section is
generally flooded. The water, however,
has not reached the apostolic palace.
Pope Benedict is taking a sympathetic
interest in tihe situation and has in
structed all the parish priests to display
the greatest energy in aiding their dis
tressed parishioners. The Pope him
self spent a good deal of his time Sun
day in watching the rising waters in
the quarter just below the apostolic
palace.
Patients Removed From Hospital
Two hundred patients in the hospital
of Santo Spirito, near the Vatican,
have been removed to upper floors of
tihe building because of the flood. Some
fear is expressed that the rising water
may cause the building to collapse.
The authorities have closed the road
from Rome to the sea in which there
are several deposits of carbide and
lime. Some of these, through infiltration
from the flooded Tiber, have already
exploded and caused nearby building*
to collapse. Fortunately there were no
victims, as the people, forseeing dangei
had left the place.
St. Angelo Bridge Endangered
Great anxiety is felt to-day for the
famous St. Angelo bridge, originally
erected by Emperor Hadrian and which
connects his tomb with the city. The
water is already over the pillars of the
bridge and troops, engineers and fire
men are at the scene doing what is
possible to check the ,peril. Milos bridge,
built over one hundred years before
Christ, is inundated and water also sur
rounds the imposing Basilion of St,.
Paul's. The Siiblious bridge, the etruc
ture sup-posed to have been defended
by Horatus and two companions, is also
under water. This is thf oldest bridgo
in Rome, having been built in the year
639 B. C.
Bridges Closed to Traffic
The bridges which have shown signs
of weakness have been closed to traffic.
Many houses in the immediate neigh
borhood of St. Peter's have from three
to four feet of waiter in the lower
stories and the inhabitants were obliged
to remove their possessions to tho up
per floors.
The floods have turned the low lying
quarters of the city into a second
Venice,,as the streets are now all water
ways ami boats are the only means of
progression.
