"TWIN BEDS" DRAWS LAUGH
Auidences at Majestic Not Small for
Third Presentation of Comedy
Although "Twin Beds" appeared at
the Majestic yesterday for the third
time. and. although the season is draw
ing to a close, the attendance was not
small at either the afternoon or the
evening performance. Selwyn & Com
pany's new farce comedy continues to
draw as many laughs as ever.
In their return engagement yester
day Harry Hawkins was still very ir
ritable, Blanche Hawkins very sweet,
Signor Monti very emotional "and Sig
nora Monti very emphatic. These well
remembered characters, if they do not
change their different dispositions
meanwhile, will be just as welcome
when they return at some future time.
An old idea has
been exploded—
men do not wait for a certain
date to wear straw hats—
they wear them now—when
the weather demands it. All
the new ones—all the good
ones are here—wider assort
ments and better values than
ever before.

1,310 Passengers on
the Lusitania Alone
Will Brave Dangers
of German Blockade
CAUTION NOTICE
FAILS IN EFFECT
Number of Passengers on the Lusitan
ia Warned In Telegrams Not to Sail.
Saying the Liner Was to Be Tor
pedoed by Submarine*
By Ansoviated Prut.
New York, May I.—The largest
number of trans-Atlautic travelers to
leave Now Yo'k in u single day this
spring had booked passage on six big
liners leaving port to-day. The Lusi
taniu alone had aboard nearly 800 cab
in passengers and a largo number iu
the steerage.
Apparently the notice published in
newspapers over the signature of the
imperial German embassy, reminding
passengers that vessels flying the flags
of the allies are liable to destruction in
the war zone around the British Isles,
had no effect on the traveling public.
There were the usual number of last
minute cancellations, but no more than
customary, it was said at the various
steamship offices. In the absence of
authentic figures, it was estimated that
more than 3,000 persons had reserved
sailings to-day.
When the Lusitania sailed she had
aboard 1,310 passengers. A number of
the passengers received telegrams at
the pier, sigued by names unknown to
them and presumed to be fictitious, ad
vising them not to sail, as the liner was
to be torpedoed by submarines. Among
the persons who received such a tele
gram was Alfred G. Vanderbilt. He
destroyed the message without com
ment.
Charles P. Sumner, general agent of
the Cunard Line, said that the Lusi
tania 's voyage was attended bv no risk
whatever, as the liner has a speed of
25' ; knots and was provided with un
usual water-tight bulkheads. The boil
ers of tlie vessel are in the middle of
the ship and next to these. Mr. Sumner
pointed out, are the eoal bunkers, thirty
feet deep.
EXAMS FOR SCHOLARSHIP
County Superintendent of Schools Frank
E. Shambaugh to Conduct

Through a donation made to the
Pennsylvania State Oollege by Dr. and
Mrs. T. K. Hayes, of Bellefonte, five
scholarships worth SBS each are given
each year to the five counties of the
State showing the highest ratio of stu
dents iu the college to the total popula
tion of the county. The successful coun
ties for 1915 are: Cameron, Center,
Dauphin, Forest and Wyoming.
Dauphin county has held one of these
scholarships each year since they were
inaugurated. Antony the local holders
have been: Alvin Dinsmore, A. E. Pish-1
er, E. E. Fisher, D. F. Graham and Lu-!
ther Zimmerman, all of Harrisburg. A
competitive examination will be held in
the office of Professor Frank E. Sham
baugh, Dauphin County Superintendent
of Schools, in the Court House here on
Saturday, May 29, at 9 a. m. The sub
jects covered in this examination will
be those required for college entrance.
Candidates desiring to enter the con
test are required to advise the county
su peri n ten dent as early as possible of
their intention of so doing.
SPEAKS OX SAFETY FIRST
John S. Spicer Addresses Men's ;
League of Harris Street Church
The Men's League of the Harris
Street United Evangelical church held
an interesting business meeting and
"workingman's social" in the social
hall last evening. The attendance was 1
encouraging and each man attending I
in his best clothes was fined ten cents. |
"Safety First Movement" was the;
subject of an address by John S.
Spicer, of the State Department of
Labor and Industry, which was highly
appreciated. He spoke of the im
portant factors in the country-wide
movement and what is being done by
employers and employes with regard
to the safety first movement. He also
said: "Even the fellow will apply the
"Safety first idea by asking his girl
whether her father is at home or has
retired."
The male quartet composed of W.
L. High, F. E. Schwartz, Widney Pef
fer and Wilbur 'Dimm, rendered an ex
cellent selection after which a work
ingman's supper of beans, sandwiches
and coffee was served by the social
committee.
COUNTY SCHOOLS CLOSED
Exercises by the Children Ended the
Eight Months' Term
• Many schools in Dauphin county
were ciosed yesterday afternoon, when
exercises were participated in by the
children following an eight months'
school term.
Notable among these was that at
Beaver school house, when County Su
perintendent Shambaugh and Township
Supervisor Dunkelberger made short
addresses. The program was in charge
of Ray Gruber, principal of the school,
and Miss Anna Wenger, teacher of the
lower grades.

ZEEBRBCGE, BASE OF THE
SUBMARINES, IS SHELLED
Amsterdam, May I.—The "Tele-'
graaf" publishes a dispatch saying j
thut the town of Zeebrugge, in Bel
gium, ou the North Sea, has been !
heavily bombarded.
Zeebrugge is a base of the Germuu
submarine ttotilla.
»
Zeebrugge is the port of Bruges anil '
it came .uito German possession when
Belgium was invaded. It is lei miles to
the northeast of Ostond and the same
distance from the Holland boundary.
Zeebrugge was constructed as a harbor j
about ten years ago at a cost of |B,- ! •
000,000. Its large outer harbor com- \
mumcates with a smaller inner basin ||
at the beginning of the new Maritime i
Canal which allows seagoing vessels to i
reach Bruges.
Canadian Cabinet Change Rumored
Ottawa, Out., May 1. —Political ob- |
servers here yesterday believe that i
Parliament will be ' dissolved next '
week. One of the signs is a rumored 1.
Cabinet change, involving the retire-!
ment within a few days of Douis Co- ,
derre. Secretary of State, and the ap- ,
pointment of J. Tellier or K. M. Pat
enaude to the vacancy. The shipping i,
of the ballot forms to "the troops over- I
seas is also taken as an indication i,
that there will be an appeal to the j
country.
No Grave Steps By Italy Soon
Rome, April 30, 8.10 P. M„ via <
Paris, May 1, 5.20 A. M.—Great sig
nificance is attached to the fact that
King Victor Emmanuel will preside at
the unveiling of the monument at
Quarto Sant Elena in honor of Gari- ! •
baldi aud his famous thousand who j
who captured Sicily in 1.860. This is
regarded as making it certain that no ,
grave steps will be taken by Italv |;
within the next ten days as the king j
is not expected to return to Rome un"-
til May 8. j,
Prizes for Dead Flies ,
One local business firm has already I
