Visits Mrs. Ella M. Hershey
for First Time.

HARRISBURG, February e1-Marriage
of this city by Sidney Ware, the par
doned convict, December n, as church
bells were preparing to usher in the an
nual Christmas festival, and this led to
the marriage of the pair recently at the
Mount Carmel NJ. E Church, Philadel-
phia. Details Of the romance, which the
pair endeavored to keep quiet, became
known here only this week
Mrs Hershey-Ware was divorced here
July Is, 1910, from Joseph Hershey. a
farmer living in the lower end of the
county, to whom she had been married
for several years. Cruel and barbarous
treatment formed the grounds for the
divorce. Immediately after her divorce
Mrs. Hershey conducted a boarding house
and for several months has been a child's
nurse. She has an eight-year-old daugh-
ter by Hershey.
Ware, who was pardoned two years ago
after serving twenty-five years i'm the
Eastern penitentiary for murder was liv-
ing in Monessen last spring when Mrs
Hershey visited there and met him. He
is said to have been here only once TO
see her, and that was last Christmas eve.

Mrs. Hershey's little daughter went TO
Philadelphia with her mother and was re-
turned to relatives here several DAYS
later. Since leaving here neither Mrs.
Wares friends nor relatives here have
received any word from her.

The Commissioners Endorsed the public

In January, this year, they sent to Con-
gress a favorable report on the La Toilette
bill, in which they referred to the recent
organization Of the -million-dollar
Washington Utilities Company, and stated
that in their opinion this corporation was
endeavoring to obtain control Of all or
most of the public utilities operating in
the District Prompt enactment of the
La Toilette measure, they urged, would

of the opinion that II an election were to
be held in the District the majority would
vote against any restriction of the num-
Der of barrooms to a maximum less than
the number now in existence. Statistics
show, they pointed out, that while the
population of the District has increased
more than 10000 in the past thirteen
years, there has been no increase In the
number of saloons. The JOnes-W orks
bill would limit the number of saloons In
Washington to 800. At present there are
1873 retail drinking establishments in the
capital and 123 wholesale liquor houses.
In lieu of the ones-Works bill the Com
missioners recommended a measure limit
ing the number of saloons to the number
now in existence and providing for an In
crease in the retail license from $500 to
81 900 and in the wholesale license from
500 to $500.

of an address by Arthur Deering Call,
executive director of the American Peace
ASSOCIATION, at the patriotic exercises at

ENGLISH SUFFRAGISTS

Il have therefore presented this

struction Of an assembly hall. At pres
ent no place is provided where commence
ment exercises can be held. and from
250 to 300 pupils are graduated each year.
There is no hall in which the student
body may congregate for any purpose,

as Prof. Cook said before the committee,
for rebuke, which is sometimes neces-
sary. l suppose, in educational institu-
tons.
The Department of the Interior recog-

acted wisely. The Continental Hotel has
been put up. This condemnation does not
include that and around this plaza and
this property and provided that it should
be taken by law, hotels and buildings
would have been put up And so 1t is on
the east side of the plaza as it appears
now.
Undoubtedly buildings would have been
put up and in the end would have been
taken. We have got the terminal, we
have got the Capitol, and now we have
got this property at the lowest possible
price, and 1 want to congratulate the At
torney General and the appraisers and all
hands for the price at which this property
has been condemned.
1T is an exceedingly advantageous pur-
chase by condemnation, and l believe the
appropriation ought to be made, so far
as this bill is concerned. which only car
ries $4,000 that the law provided for

property and that We have got it, whether
Congress objects to the condemnation
now or not. simply for the reason that

have no doubt bidding against ourselves
by condemnation piecemeal that it would
have cost at least a million and a half
