STREET PAVIKC BIDS WERE
OPENED LAST EVENING
Highland. South Third and Conesto,**
Streets WUI Be Improved. Unless
Petition Referred to Highway Com
mittee I* Considered
Bids opened 'ast night at a special
meeting of the Borough Council for pav
ing sections of Highland street, South
Third street and Conestoga street
showed that there will uot be much dif
ference in price from what was paid in
1914. No opposition developed to the
paving of Highland street, but there
was some objection to making this im
provement on the other two streets.
This opposition, in the shape of a pe
tition, was referred to the Highway
committee for action at a later date.
There were five bidders for the : av
ing work, includiug three contractors
who had never entered fcids here before.
The Standard Bitulithic Company,
which handled the South Front street
contract last summer, and the Charles
T. Eastburn Company were low bidders
and. while the latter'p'aced a low figure
for the sheeting, its figures were high
er for other parts of the work, and
these bids will be gone over by the
Highway committee to report to Coun
cil at its next meeting, when the ion
trr.cts will be awarded. Eastburn s
lii.l for anieisite sheeting was $1.97
per sqrsre yard, while the Standard
company bid's 2 09 a yard on warrenine
paving.
Ti;e inree new bidders and the mate
rial offered b\ them were as follows:
B. P. Craft, York, wooden block; Benl
net & Kaymil. Lebanon. brick; R. S.
Rat bourn, Philadelphia, brick ond
miiciiite.
List night's bids ran close to the
priie for which last summer's work
here w;is done. The Stsudard Bitu
lithic Company's price on South Front
street was $2.1- and on the cross
streets nas $2.02 per yard.
Til answering the request of 'he Ordi
npnee committee for a new license or
dinance with higher vending fees, Bor
ough Solicitor Wickersham said th.it, as
the Legislature will act upon a borough

be advisable for Council to wait for

DEMAND FOR CASH BY MAIL
LANDS WRITER IN TIE JAIL
William Zoll, of Hummelstown, Re
wards the Kindness of a "Friend
in Need" By Black Hand Methods
and Is Arrested By Inspector Lucas
William Zoll, alias William Selcker,
was taken into custody by Postoffice
Inspector Lucas yesterd'av morning for
violating the postal laws by sending a
threatening letter through the mails
to the Rev. Charles A. Huyette, pastor
of the First Reformed church. Selcher
was locked up in jail following his ap
pearamce before United States Com
missioner Wolfe in default of SSOO
bail to await the action of the district
court in Mav.
Zoll appeared at the home of the
Rev. Mr. Huyette, Sunday evening,
February 28, and giving the uame of
Selcker." gave a hard luck story in
which he stated that he was out of
work, could find nothing to do and out
of cash. That both his father and
mother were held in Germany to which
country they had goue on a' visit last
May; that a property which his par
entis owned was in the hands of a real
estate agent who had not yet made
sale of it. These statements appealed
to the sympathy of the kindhearted
clergyman who hini lodging for
the night.
The following morning Zoll stJted
that he had relatives at Pottstowu and
could get work there if he had the
transportation. By the aid of the Rev.
Mr. Huyette a railroad ticket for
Pottstown was secured by the Asso
ciated Charities of the borough and
H. C. Wright furnished Zoll with a
new pair of shoes.
Wednesday night he returned to the
minister's home saying that he had
lost his ticket and again asked for a
night's lodging. As there would be no
person at home that evening he was
refused lodging but the preacher could
not turn him away cold and gave him
a doiiar.
On Saturday morning the Rev. Mr.
Huyette received a letter from Selcker
demanding s2o with a threat in the
event of his refusal that certain
things that took place in the min
ister's house during Slicker's presence
there would toe exposed. The letter
was turned over to Inspector Lucas
who immediately started an investiga
tion.
A decoy letter addressed to Selcker
at the Harrisburg postoffice was cent
out by the inspector aud yesterday
morning when he called for it lie
was arrested by Lucas. After a grill
ing in the postoffice building Selcker
confessed to sending the threatening
letter aind exouorated the minister
from the action which he threatened
to expose.
Zoll lived in Highspire for a number
of years but he and his parents re
moved to Hummelstown over two
years aijo. where he was employed for
a time on the Walton truck farm. He
was slightly injured a little less than
two years ago while riding on one of
the Walton auto trucks it was run into
by an engine on the Middletown and
Hummelstown line of the Philadelphia
and Reading railroad, in which colli
sion the driver named Force, was
killed.

Judge Denies Motion to
Have White's Slayer
Sent Back to New
Hampshire
TO BE RETURNED
TO MATTEAWAN
But Counsel For Thaw Obtains a Writ
of Habeas Corpus Which Acts As
a Stay in Returning Him to the
Asylum
By Associated Prc*s,
New York, March 16. —Harry K.
Thaw will not be sernt back to New
Hampshire by the State of New Y'ork
as his counsel demanded, but must be
returned to Matteawan Asylum, unless
legal papers calling for his detention
in New York county are served on the
warden of Tombs prison. This was Su
preme Court Justice Page's, decision
to day in disposing of the formal mo
tion to have Thaw retunned to New
Engl.i nd.
In the meantime counsel for Thaw,
as if in anticipation of such a decisiou,
had obtained from Supreme Court Jus
tice Bijur a writ of habeas corpus
which will keep Thaw in Tombs prison
till next Friday when he must be pro
duced in court.
Close Call For Thaw
It was a close call for Thaw as
?lans had been considered by the State
or returning him at once to Mattea
wan. Asylum attendants were in the
court room ready to rush him there by
autonubile, but the writ of habeas
corpus prevented this.
Sheriff Griffenhagen, of New York
county, had heard whisperings of a
plot to abduet Thaw during the brief
interval when he shou'.d be out of
Warden Hmi ley 's custody in £oing to
and from the prison to the court room
across the bridge of sighs. Accordingly
the Sheriff armed twenty deputies
with revolvers and scattered them
throughout the crowd that packed the
court room. Many more armed deputies
wej-e sprinkled among the crowds in
the corridors.
•"1 am taking no chances," the
Sherift said. "I am well hceied for an
abduction."
Again Back to the Tombs
When the decision was announced,
Thaw's smile changed to a frown.
Plainly lie was disappointed. He turned
quickfv to John B. Slanchfieid. of his
counsel, who spoke a few words in an
undertone and tool; his seat. A monieut
later, two of the Sheriff's deputies led
him away to the Tombs.
Justice Page took occasion to com
ment, iia his decision on the good faith
displayed by the State of New York
towards New Hampshire by placing
Thaw on trial on the "conspiracy
charge. There had been 110 evidence,
the court held, to warrant the charge
that Thaw had been brought back sim
ply to be sent a..ain to Matteawan.
Nor had there been adduced any ade
quate reason why Tinw should be sent
back to New Hampshire at'ter his trial
and acquittal.

GOOD MUSIC IMKES UP FOR
POOR JOKESAT ORPHEUM
"Safety First," the Headline Act, In
clude* Catchy Songs But Must Let
Cantor and Lee Supply the Week's
Witticisms
There are few if any really comical
situations and no jokes worth recog
nizing as such in the Orphetim's big
act of the week, "Safety First," but
t'ue singing is certainly a redeeming fea
ture. The pleasing voices of Sopnye
Barnard. Ix>u Anger and certainly Eliz
abeth May lie ;.re heard in very "attrac
tive numbers. The act is a musical
treat. The pity is that as a comedy it
should be so decided a failure.
It is not the fa'ilt of the performers,
iof course, that their lines are wewk.
I The author is to blame for not putting
some real jokes into the piece at places
iustead of allowing the plot to drag
along so monotonously with the help
of not only poor but ancient witticisms.
The members of the company are sure
j Iv capable and would be able to con
! vulse their audiences if their vehicle
: were better written. As it is, they do all
| their entertaining with their singing
1 and do that so well that they are en
. tirtly forgiven for the lack in their
i spoken lines. Their musical numbers
are catchy ones and especially have the
i merit of being in touch with the imes.
The other performers on the bill are
I Bert Levy, who sketches strikiug like
nesses of familiar characters on a slide
1 through which a re a glow passes and
transfers the portraits to a screen; Ed
! die Cantor and AL Lee. who have
i plenty i f joke* to make up for the want
in the headline act; Irene and Bobbie
' Smith, who are eccentric and therefore
' very entertaining singers; Sammy
Burns and 'Alice Fulton, who do some
wild and spectacular dancing, and
••Haxel," a dog ti.at could dispense
with the assistance of its trainer's an
tics and still have a very amusing act.

fice or headquarters of the charity can
be visited, its practices investigated
and nothing left in doulbt as to the
good use made of the money.
