.of the crowd increased. There were
tries of "Long live the king," and
"Long live the house of Savoy."
Royal Family on Balcony
'Finally the king and the queen and
the royal family came out upon the
balcony. His majesty was in the uni
form of a general. The crown- prince,
dressed as a sailor boy, waved his
cap to the multitude.
The excitement of the people arose
almost to a delirium.
The king- then did an unprecedented
thing. He igave orders that the, Italian
flajj be raised to the balcony. Then
amid the thundering cheers of the mul
titude his majesty advanced to the na
tional standard and folding it in his
arms embraced it. The royal family
then retired within the palace. Later
the called a group of the alder
men inside and to them expressed his
gratitude for the loyalty and patriot
ism of the Roman people.
Loud Cheers For America
After the demonstration before the
Quirnal a great crowd with an Ameri
can flag carried at the head went to
the residence of United States Ambas
sador Page. Loud cheers for America
and demands for revenge for the Lusi
tania victims.
Gre at excitement was caused .in the
capita) to-night by the report that
Rignor Bullati, Italian ambassador, had
been assaulted while driving in the
street. It was learned later however,
that the incident was not so serious
as it was thought and that the police I
had begun a rigid investigation. Let
ters of regret were sent to Signor Bol
lati by Chancellor Von Bethmann-
Hollweg and Foreign Minister Von
Jagow.

Washington, May 22.—The informal
and unofficial conferences between the
commercial advisor of the British em
• bassv and the State Department trade
advisors, to expedite handling of Amer

SUBLIME SIMPLICITY
The Epitaph Over Sir Henry Lawrence,
the Lucknow Hero
There is a simple'tomb in Lucknow,
in India, that cost 110 more than many
a plain farmer's gravestone in our ru
ral burying places, but Clarence Poe
declares that it impressed him more
than anything else he saw in India ex
cept the Himalayas, the Taj Mahal
and the view of Benares from the
river.
It is the tomb of the heroic Sir Hen
ry Lawrence, who died so glorious a
death iu the great mutiny of 1557. No
commander in all India had planned
more wisely for the defense of the
men and women under his care, but
the siege hail only begun when he was
mortally wounded. He called his suc
cessor an t his associates to him, and
at last, having omitted no detail of
counsel or information that might en
able them to carry out his farseeing
plans, he roused himself to dictate his
own immortal epitaph:
Here Lies
Henry Lawrence,
Who Tried to Do His Duty.
May the Lord Have Mercy on His Soul.
And so to-day these lines, sublime in
their simplicity, mark his last resting
place, ami you feel that not even the
great Akbar in Beeundra or Napoleon
in Paris has a worthier monument.—

Modeled After an Ancient Tomb
The temple of the Scottish Rite in
Washingtor is a handsome white mar
ble structure about 150 feet square
and rises to a height of 150 feet above .
the street level. At either side of the i
main entrance is an immense marble !
sphinx. A row of tall lonic columns I
surrounds the second story. The archi- I
tects followed closely the design of the '
ancient tomb of King Mausolus. which j
stood in Halicarnassus and was one of
the seven wonders of the world. It !
was built by the wife of the king and
was decorated with hundreds of won
derful statues. This old tomb became
so famous that many buildings were
modeled after it, but' this is the only
structure in America in which the de
sign has been used.
Her Only Course
Ladv Anne Lindsay, the author of
the old, poem, "Aul.'l Robin Gray,"
was not only a delightful conversation
alist, but she was a great story teller.
This gift made her not onlv a wel
come guest abroad, but a valuable
member of the home circle, for it is
related in "A Group of Scottish Wom
en" that at a dinner party which she
was giving to some friends an old man
servant caused some amusement by say
ing in a perfectly audible undertone:
"My lady, you must tell another
story. The second course won't be
ready for five minutes."

After Tech'b Laurels
The rain of the last two days did not
seriously daftiage the cimlfcr track on
Island Park for this afternoon's cham
pionship meet for Pennsylvania schools
under auspices of the Harrisburg
Track Athletic Committee. On the con
trary it packed the cinder and this
was expected to aid in establishing new
records for this annual gathering of
scholastic athletes.
The downpour at, several times last
night was very heavy but early this
morning Park Commissioner Taylor
went to the island and' found conditions I
favorable for the meet. He then de
cided that unless another heavy show
er should interfere the meet would be
held as scheduled. The seats in the
stands were all cleared of water and'i
what sun shone this morning dried them I
nicely so that at noon the comfort of I
the spectators seemed, assured.
This is the ninth annual scholastic
meet to be held under the auspices of j
the Harrisburg committee. In point j
of the number of schools entered it
surpassed all the meets for several
years back. Two hundred athletes from
the following fifteen high schools were
entered:
Elizabethville, Harrisburg, Central,
! Harrisburg Tech, Lykens, Millersburg,
! Milton, Reading, Steelton, Waynesboro,
Columbia, Williamsport, Lancaster,
Chester, York and Lebanon.
Lancaster, Williamsport and Bead
ing entered full teams and came here
hoping to take laurels away from the
Harrisburg Technical High School
which had made the best record on the
track so far this season of any school
entered.
Cinder Track in Good Shape
The shield which has been competed
for for seven years will be formally
awarded to the Reading High School at
the end of to-day's meet, that school
having won the championship more
times than any other school in that
period. The winner of last year's
meet was Technical High, of Harris
burg, which holds th e shield until to
day, under the rules. The prize this
year is a new shield to be competed for
annually for seven years. In addition
the championship team will get a silver
cup and the runner-up a bronze cup.
Individual athletes taking first, sec
ond and third places in the different
events will receive gold, silver and
bronze medals, respectively. In the
scoring, first place counts 'five points;
second place, four; third place, three;
fourth place, two points, and fifth, one.
W. Orville Hiekok, 111, former in
tercollegiate champion weight thrower
for Yale, was 011 the program to ref
eree. The pole vault was scheduled' to
start at 1.45 o'clock and was expect
ed to last all afternoon. The first track
event, preliminaries in the one hundred
yard dash, was scheduled for 2 o'clock.
MANY USES FOR GUNS
They Have Even Been the Means at.
Times of Saving Lives
Guns would not go even if warfare
were abolished. For example, the sig
nal gun of a ship is used to announce
her arrival on a coast. It would be
difficult to find an equallv effective
substitute. The 1 o'clock' gun, too,
which is fired by electricity
Greenwich observatory, is the most ef
fective means possible of announcing
the exact time to surrounding towns,
while nothing more impressive could
be found than the minute guns fired
for public mourning and the salute giv
en on occasions of public rejoicings.
Guns save lives as well as take them.
In desert countries, where it is difficult
to collect water out of a mere damp
ness of sand, gun barrels are often
sunk into the ground. By this means
moisture is collected in the bore and
many lives have been preserved by a
timely draw at the muzzle.
A slaver, captured with a crew of
slaves iu the tropics, was once put in
charge of a prize crew. During the
voyage water ran out and slaves, slav
ers and prize crew were all dying of
thirst. Then a sergeant hit on a bril
liant idea. Taking all the available
gun barrels, he plugged up the breach
ends of a few of them, filled their
bores with sea water ami set them end
up among the coals of the galley fire.
Then as the steam rose he ran it
through the other gun barrels till it
cooled. The cooling steam collected in
the shape of excellent fresh water and
bv this means scores of lives were
saved.—Pearson 's Weekly.
Trial by Jury
The "New York Law Journal" says
on the subject of trial by jury:
" While we do not think that trial
by jury ought to be abolished or that
there is any increasing sentiment in
that direction, we do believe that the
system should be modified by dispensing
with the requirement for unanimous
verdicts. This would obviate the ele
ment of individual eccentricity as an
impediment to the administration of
justice. Mental idiosyncrasy on the
part of judges is constantly exhibited
and scarcely excites comment. An emi
nent and very able judge will dissent
r'roni the ruling of his associates when
it is extremely difficult to understand
how so gifted a mind could have gone
off on that particular tangent. By per
mitting affirmances or reversals," not
withstanding dissent, the personal equa
tion is eliminated."
In Biology

the dogwood trcef'

And his answer was correct, even if
it did cause a laugh.

John—"The butcher." —Chicaeo

German Ambassador at Rome, will not
leave the Italian capital until compelled
to do so, according to the Rome corre

EUROPEAN WAR COSTING ALL
INVOLVED $2,000,000 AN HOUR
Paris, May 22.—Captain Edmond
Thery, widely known as an economist,
estimates that the total military ex
penditures for the first year of the war
will be $10,000,000,000 for the seven
allies and $7,400,000,000 for Germany,
Austria and Turkey. This makes an
average of $1,440,000,000 a month,
$48,400,000 a day and $2,000,000 an
hour.
He believes the economic powers of
Great Britain, France and Russia can
support the strain much more easily
than their opponents.

SUFFRAGISTS ARE AFTER
SCALPS OF LAW-MAKERS
Association's President Calls on Con
stituents' of Representatives Who
Voted Against Women Watchers'
Bills, to Punish Them at the Polls
Mrs. Frank M. Roessing. as president
of the Pennsylvania Woman Suffrage
Association, sent out last night an open
letter to the constituents of all the
Representatives whose votes helped to
defeat the bill in the House which
would hav<> permitted women watchers
to be at the polls in November when
the suffrage question will be voted on.
In this county the letter was addressed
to the constituents oi Representative
John ('. Nisslev and Representative
Walter S. Young. The letter says in
part:
•'Of course, if your representatives
merely carried out your personal wishes
when they voted against a measure
framed to minimize the chances of
fraud at the polls, we have no criticism
to make. But we do not believe that
such is the case. We are convinced that
deep in the heart of every real man is
a love of fair play. Therefore we feel
confident that your representatives did
not truly represent you when they voted
against this measure, and we would ap
preciate it if you would let the public
know that uo man who betrays the
principles you stand for can 'expect
your vote as a candidate for re-election
to the Legislature."
The letter also says:
"Inasmuch as members of the same
well-organized lobby that defeated the
local option bill lobbied against the
watchers bill, we nre curious to know
if their activities influonced your rep
resentatives' votes, or of they voted
against our nv asure merely on the as
sumption that you, their constituents,
were averse to giving womenfolk a
square deal."
