Now comes the keystone state.
-Four thousand of its men with their
life blood hallowed the sacred ground
to which Abraham Lincoln In the
greatest speech yet made by an
American made such impressive ref
erence in the famous Gettysburg ad-
dress. 1t was fitting that the Key
stone state should have had more
troops engaged in the battle than any
other commonwealth, for Philadelphia

the scene of the fight would have fall
\ had the issue been otherwise than it
was
Eighteen states defended the north
ern colors, and Pennsylvania was far
ahead, not only in numbers of men
Engaged, but in the percentage Of
those who were killed.
III The historian, William F. Fox, in
his book, New York in the War"
lays.
"The percentage of killed in the
noldiers of the Keystone state was
greater than the quota Of any other
Northern state. This high percentage
Of loss In battle was largely due to
the fact that nearly all of the Penn
sylvania troops served in Virginia,
where the territory was better con-
Vested and the war more prolonged.
Then again the Pennsylvania regi-
ments were second to none. They
e4w plenty of hard fighting, and their
total losses in action exceeded the
cavalry losses of any other state
This was the kind of material with
which Pennsylvania went into the
great conflict on the first three days

What Pennsylvania did here is not
alone the glory Of the Keystone state,

glory, especially appealing since
Pennsylvania citizens had a little
more at stake on that day than any

Cure for Toothache.

A London physician at meeting Of
a medical society stated that extrac-
ton OF teeth was unnecessary. He
was enabled to cure the most desper-

the case was connected with rheuma-
tism, by the application Of the follow
ing remedy to the diseased tooth:
Alum, reduced to an impalpable pow
der, two drachms; nitrous spirits Of
ether, seven drachms; mix and apply

Waterhaul for
a Holdup Man
Woman's Screams Cause Him to Run
and Shots from Officers Revolver
Accelerates Pace.

A desperate attempt to rob Albert Freid-
man, a pawnbroker at ll6 Farnam street,
was made by a negro early last night.
About 9:46 o'clock the man entered Freid-
mans store and showed a revolver in the
proprietor's face with the demand that he
be given SIS. Friedman protested that he
had not that much money in the house
and invited the man to search his cash
drawer, which was done.
Finding no money the negro asked for
every dollar there was in the store, saying
that IL he did not get it he would begin to
shoot. At this Mrs. Friedman, who had
been a frightened spectator to the occur
ance, found her voice and commenced to
shrek for the police. Frightened by the
woman's screams the negro lacked to the
door and walked to the corner, turning
south on Eleventh street.
just after ne turned the corner he ran
into officer Plots, who had heard nothing
OF the trouble. The negro approached him
hastily with the statement that a man had
been shot around the corner. When Plotts
stepped to the corner to look the negro
ran, with the officer following. The chase
led to Ninth and Harvey. where the negro
made his escape in the vicinity of the new
John Deere building after the officer had
emptied his revolver in an attempt TO stop
him.
The police have a good description OF the
man and officers have been detailed to
work on the case.
Half a dozen negroes were arrested on
suspicion Friday morning. but nave not
been identified yet by Friedman.
