HARMONY CLUB IS
TURNED down
Judge Thought lis Scope Too
Broad-Advised Not to Start
Things Couldn't Finish,
PROMOTE HAPPINESS
BY Sun Leased wire.

BY Sun Leased Wire.
New York, Sept. 5--Application was
made to Supreme Court Justice Amend
today for the incorporation of the
Harmony club, of which Edward H.
Fallows, the lawyer of 30 Church
street, is president and Helen Nj.
Fogler secretary.
The court declined to approve the
certificate of Incorporation in the
form in which 1t was presented be-
cause 1t professed among other things
to organize and control hospitals,
clinics, dispensaries, health homes,
sanitoria and kindred hygienic lnsti-
tutions."
The petition was returned to the
club with this endorsement:
THE paragraph relating to hospit-
ais and kindred institutions would
seem to make it necessary that the
state board of charities should first
give its indorsement''
Miss Fogler, the secretary, said this
afternoon that many of the things the
club hoped to do are so far in the
future that the club does not really
care for permission to do them at
present, and organizing hospitals is
one of them. A new application will be
made which will eliminate that phase.
The other stated purposes of the
club are:
"To harmonize people with them
selves, their surroundings and each
other.
ITO prove the efficient value of a
smile and song in every day life.
ITO estimate the perfect unity of
body, mind heart and spirit"
And not only all those beautiful
things but these as well:
ITO investigate formulate and
demonstrate the scientific laws of hap
piDess.
"To enunciate the principles of
wholesome, triumphant, sincere liv-
ing.
ITO present the discoveries OF mod
ern psychology in simple, attractive
guise.
"To put those who want vital knowl-
edge in touch with those who have it.
ITO maintain brotherhood of in
dividuals where sympathy is the only
bond.
"To impart the secrets of self-help
as the highest of altruism.
"To promote free discussion of ev-
cry subject that makes for clear un-
derstanding of life"

j. S. STEEL STEALS
Strike BREAKERS
Cat Company Pays $4,000 Car
Fare Only to Have Men
Coaxed Away.
is REAL MEAN TRICK

BY Sun Leased Wire.
Pittsburg, Sept. 5-Developments of
a most sensational character in the
Pressed Steel Car company affairs at
McKees Rocks came today when 1t
was openly asserted from the offices
of the company that the United
States Steel corporation, which Is ad-
mittedly desirous of getting posses
sion of the Pressed Steel Car plant,
has been interfering with efforts to
break the strike nov on there.
Representatives of the steel car
company at Pittsburg openly accuse
the corporation Of stealing their
strike breakers after they have
brought them here at great expense
from New York, Chicago, or other
distant points and through Offering
them better wages to take them to
the mills of the plants of the Pitts
burg, where strikes have been on for
several weeks.
1t is alleged that the Pressed Steel
Car company has already expended
$4,000 in car fare for strike break
ers to its mills who on their arrival
here have been induced to leave i'm
mediately for the corporations mills
by nine different employment agencies
who are in the employ of the corpor-
alton at McKees Rocks.
1t is asserted that these agents
have been in the habit of sending
their own men to New York and to
Chicago and New York to hire as
strike breakers for McKees Rocks and
getting in with large parties of strike
breakers being shipped to the Pressed
Steel car plant and have had ample
chance to talk to them and induce
them to quit as soon as they reach
the mills, the car company having
paid the fares to Pittsburg.
On last Thursday 200 workmen
came from New York, among them
being one whom the Pressed Steel
Car company now knows was an en-
ployee of the Steel corporation and
who induced the 200 to walk out with
him within two hours after arriving
and go to the tin mills of the Ameri-
can Sheet and Tin Plate company.
