BILL ABOLISHING CAPITAL
PUNISHMENT HAS A FLAW
It Amends the Hanging Law Which
Has Been Repealed in Favor of
Electrocution, and It Must Be
Changed Before Committee Can Act
The Geiser measure introduced in the
Pennsylvania House of Representatives
for the abolition of capital punishment
and making the punishment for murder
imprisonment for life, is yet in the
hands of fhe Judicial/ General Commit
tee, Which finds that it will have to toe
amended before it can be reported. The
fact t*hat it neods amending, commit
teemen say, docs not signify necessarily
that it will be reported favorably.
The Geiser bill comes as an amend
ment to the act of March 31, 1860,
which provided for death by hanging
This act was repeated by the act of
June 19, 1913, which provides that
the death penalty in t'his State shall be
electrocution. As a consequence the
Geiser bill seeks to amend an act which
already has been repealed.
The Geiser measure recalled to mem
bers of the Legislature to-day the fact
that some weeks ago hundreds of little
green paper slips were distributed in
the legislative halls protesting against
the abolition of capital punishment.
This "literature" was signed by the
"Civic Alliance," which, it is stated,
has headquarters in Boston, Mass.
"Crime will increase when murder
shall be punished oy imprisonment' dur
ing life," ,i.e little green paper asserts,
and then it declares that a "certain man
in Massachusetts saiil to Senator Gideon
B. Abbott: 'I intended to murder, but
thought of the death penalty anil I
was deterred by it from becoming a
murderer.' "
The green agent of the Civic Alliance
cites statistics to show the effect of
' capital punishment and its abolition. It
. says that in 1912 Oregon, Ohio, Ari
" zona, Massachusetts and Vermont voted
against the abolition of capital punish
ment. Then the printed slip points out
that with the aibolition of capital pun
' ishment in Michigan the number of
. murder immediately doubled. In Maine
J the increase was from an annual aver
• age of two before abolition to eighteen
, after, in the year 1905. In lowa, ac
cording to the slip, the resulting crime
was sufficient argument to cause the re
! enactment of the law in 1876. In Ver
mont twenty murders took place in
1911, immediately after the law was
weakened. In Colorado "the abolition
resulted in lynch law," the slip asserts,
"One burning at the stake and two
lvnchings resulted in the return of the
Western State to capital punishment."
OBSERVE" m SURRENDER
Fiftieth Anniversary of Appomattox
Event Celebrated by Grand Army
Veterans in Local Post Hall
The observance of the fiftieth an
niversary of the surrender of General
Lee at Appomattax was celebrated by
Grand Army men in the rooms of Post
' No. 58, G. A. R., last night. Many
incidents of the war were related by
the soldiers, principal among them re-
I ferring to the sixteen days prior to the
surrender, when several of the men did
i not have their shoes off and for many
I hours were engaged in continuous fight
i"g-
The veterans had as their guest 9
at last night's celebration, officers of
the State Department, including De
| partment Commander John A. Fair-
Jman; Senior Vice Department Com
| mander Francis H. Hoy; Junior Vice
Department Commander Oliarles Tay-
I lor; Assistant Adjutant General Sam-
I uel P. Towns and Chief of Staff James
D. Walker.
I These officers (rave recently visit
!ed the G. A. R. posts throughout the
I State and on Thursday inspected the
I Scotland Orphan school.
William T. Bishop, commander of
Post 116, was unanimously chosen
| chairman of the committee on Memorial
1 Day arrangements and James D. Saltz
! man, of the same post, was elected
I secretary. A committee consisting of
11. W. Xedman, commander of Post 58;
j William T. Bishop, commander of Post
,116, and James M. Auter, commander
'of Post 520, was appointed to select
lan orator and to secure a church for
j Memorial Day services. This commit
tee will meet again next Thursday
night.
Franklin Students Visit Here
Forty-seven Franklin High school
students arrived in this city late last
night en route to their homes from
Philadelphia and Washington, after a
week '» sightseeing tour. The students
registered at the Bolton hotel and re
mained in the city until late this aft
ernoon, visiting the Capitol, Rockville

Evening Ledger War Pictures
To-day will close the engagement in
this city of the celebrated War Pic
tures which are being presented under
the auspices of the Pliiladelphia "Pub
lie Ledger"—Evening Ledger at the
Majestic Theatre. While the major in
terest in these remarkable pictures
centers in the Kaiser and the other
great leaders in the monumental strug
gle, there are many other interesting
and unusual pictures thrown upon the
screen. The equipment of Ked Cross
recruits the work of the Red Cross
dogs on the battlefields of Belgium
and France, care of the wounded, the
Kmpress of Germany with the Red
Cross Nurses, the arrival of the British
cavalry in France—these and scores
of other interesting scenes are shown
and contribute interesting side lights.
—Adv. *
Leroy, Talma and Bosco
Foreign rulers and potentates have
a habit of showering gifts upon actors,
magicians and others whose work
strikes them particularly. Servais Le
roy, who will come to the Majestic
Theatre, Monday and Tuesday with
daily matinees has two trunks filled
with gifts that he has gathered on his
roynd th© world tour, which has al
ready consumed twelve years. Among
them is a diamond studded wand pre
sented by the Czar of Russia, a cigar
ette case with his initials set in rubies,
given him by the King of Spain and a
great many medals, etc. —Adv. *
Hearing and Seeing
While Sousa's Band has been heard
in nearly all of the large cities of the
world, there are many places whero
Sousa's music has become familiar
through the medium of the phonograph.
It would be hard, indeed, to find a lo
cality in which the name of Sousa is
unknown. But even the best phono
graph record of a Sousa piece is only
a tame imitation of the real and only
Sousa Band, with its variety of in
struments, and its richness of tone and
color, such as will be heard here when
Sousa and his band play at the Majes
tic on Wednesday evening with Miss
Virginia Root, soprano, and Miss Mar
gel Gluck, violiniste, also Herbert L
Clarke, cornetist, as soloists. Nothing
can duplicate the music of the full band
for the ear, nor the figure of Sousa as
ho conducts his band, to the eye.—

Warfield Sale of Seats Opens
The sale of seats for David War
field 's engagement at the Majestic The
atre in "The Auctioneer" will open
Monday morning at the box office at 9
o'clock, when patrons may secure them,
although for this engagement not more
than ten seats will be sold to any one
person. In the character of Simon Levi,
the old Hester street second-hand deal
er and auctioneer, Mr. Warfield is re
turning to the character that first
biought him fame, and which was the
intermediate step between his remark
able impersonations in the Weber and
Field's burlesques, and his later cre
ations of Herr Von Barwig in "The
Music Master," and Peter Grimm in
"The Return of Peter Grim."—Adv. *
At the Orpbeum
"We've Had a Lovely Time So
Long, Good-bye" is an appropriate ex
pression to-day for the season's best,
bill and the season's last bill makes its
exit at the Orpheum. That'me&ns that
after the curtain falls on to-night's
closing performance it will fall for the,
last time this season. The present sea
son, which was formerly scho.luled to
wind up next week, came to an end
this week, because of some difficulties
the headliner that was to appear.
The outcome of it all is that the Or
pheum closes just a week earlier, and
the other acts that were slated to ap
pear will be presented at the Colonial
mstead. The present bill is certainly
one of the season's best. A glance over
the roster is proof conclusive of the
high class attractions presented. This
was true, however, during the whole
season. Harrisburg was favored with
the very best in tho Keith market,
which is undoubtedly the greatest,
vaudeville power in the world. —Adv. *
At the Colonial
"The Bose of Panama" is some
rose. Or rather one should say ro*es.
Pity we can't drop in on the fruit fam
ily and call them peaches. "A Rose of
Panama" is a delightful one-act mu
sical comedy with special scenery, pret
ty girls, clever comedians and many in
teresting situations. It must be seen
to be appreciated. Three other excel
lent Keith acts support it, including a
number of very well known Keith ar
tists. The bill appears for its closing
engagements to-day. "The Haberdash
ery Girls" is the title of the most pre
tentious musical comedy that ever ap
peared at the Colonial. It will hold
forth there during the first half of next
week. —Adv. *
The Victoria
The music that has been rendered on
the new $25,000 pipe organ recently
installed in this popular theatre has
been very enthusiastically received and
bids fair to become more popular and
appreciated every day. Prom every side
come words of praise and especially so
from persons who can and really do en
joy high class music. This pipe organ
lias been very appropriately called the
pipe organ with the human voice and

The Regent
The Victoria Cross masterpiece,
"Life's Shop Window," adapted from
the popular play and novel, and fea
turing Claire Whitney and Stuart
Holmes, is the attraction at the Regent
theatre to-day. In New York theatres
100,000 people saw the production
and thousands of others were turned
away. The film presentation is a deli
cate but truthful visualization of the I
novel and play that was the talk of
two continents. It is a story of a clan
destine marriage that almost resulted
in disaster. A suave gentleman sows
the seeds of discontent in the mind of
a credulous country girl, married to
an honest, hardworking farmer. Trou
ble follows and a pretty Indian maid
en' makes her entrance and helps to
straighten out affairs.
For Monday and Tuesday Manager
Magaro has arranged to show "The
Sign of the Cross" with William
Famum in the principal role. "The
Sign of the Cross," written by Wilson
