politics. i will not run for Governor
of New York"
arily broke his rule of silence in re-
gard to politics in order to make this
declaration while he was proceeding
on board the tender to embark on the
Imperator for New York.
Colonel Roosevelt suffered from a
sharp attack of chill while on board
the tender. 1t was the first occasion
on which he had felt the chill since he
left New York and he explained that
it was merely a recurrence of the
effects of the jungle fever which was
to be expected.
The Colonel declined assistance and
crossed the gangway to the liner un-
aided, but he retired Immediately to
the imperial suite on the Imperator,
which had been assigned to him and
his cousin, Philip J. Roosevelt.
Emphasis was laid by Philip Roose-
welt on statement that the Colonel

| would prevent him from speaking
from the platforms of trains and simi-

that the Colonel expected to fill an en-
gagement in Pittsburgh on June 80.
His great desire. however. in the mean
time, was for period of home life at
Sycamore Hill, during which he could
rest his voice and forego politics.
Among the first to greet Colonel
Roosevelt on the tender was Lawrence
Abbott, who told the Colonel that he
was going to interest him in golf, but
Colonel Roosevelt replied that he did
not feel like chasing pill over ten
acre lot.
He said he would make no state
ments on the steamer and any reports
, that he had could be regarded as false.
He may make one or two speeches to
small gatherings during the campaign.

WHAT DYSPEPTICS
SHOULD EAT
A PHYSICIANS ADVICE

Indigestion and practically all forms
of stomach trouble are, nine times out
of ten, due to acidity; therefore stomach
sufferers should, whenever possible.
avoid eating food that is acid in it's ma
ture, or which by chemical action in the
stomach develops acidity. Unfortu-
foods which are pleasant to the taste
as well as those which are rich in
blood, flesh and nerve building proper
ties. This is the reason why dyspep-
tics and stomach sufferers are usually
so thin, emaciated and lacking in that
vital energy which can only come from
a well fed body. For the benefit of
those sufferers who have been obliged
to exclude from their diet all starchy.
sweet or fatty food, and are trying to
keep up miserable existence on gluten
should try a meal of any food or foods
which you may like, in moderate
amount, taking Immediately afterwards
teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia in

stead of the usual feeling of uneasi-
ness and fullness. you will find that
your food agrees with you perfectly.
Bisurated magnesia is doubtless the
best food corrective and antacid
the stomach; but by neutralizing the
acidity of the food contents, and thus
removing the source of the acid irrita-

sibly be done by any drug or medicine.
AS a physician believe in the use of
medicine whenever necessary, but l
must admit that cannot see the sense
of dosing AN infiamed and irritated
stomach with drugs instead of getting
rid of the acid-the cause of all the
trouble. Get a little bisurated mag

Old Almhouse MiU-Stones
to Mark Cameron Parkway

The old mill stones which served for
years and years TO grind the grain that
was brought to the Almshouse mill
just east of the county home, have
been placed at the intersection of the
county road and the present eastern
end of the Cameron parkway, to serve
as markers.
The old mill shed had blocked the
view and interfered with the more
readily accessible entrance to the
parkway from the county road here
tofore. This was removed at the re-
quest of the park authorities and the
curve at the intersection was broad
ened in such way as to provide an
easy, swing from parkway to the road.
The two big mill stones are all that
remain of the ancient mill landmark,
however, and these will be allowed to
remain at the intersection. Vines and
flowers are already growing around
the stones.

MIDDLE DIVISION
VETERANS DEMAND
CHANGES IN RULES
Want to Meet at Various Points
Along Line Instead of in Two
Terminal Cities

Veteran employees of the Middle di-
vision of the Pennsylvania Railroad in
annual meeting at the Chestnut Street
Auditorium this afternoon, asked for
several changes in the meeting rules.
Noel w. Smith, superintendent of
the division and president of the asso-
citation, presided over the session.
Nearly 500 vets were in attendance.
There is a big demand for arrange
ments similar to those followed by the
veteran associations of other divisions.
Instead of meeting in Harrisburg one
year and in Altoona the next, the vets
want a trip to other points, and the
privilege of bring their wives with
them.
Up to the time the Middle division
headquarters weer transferred to AL
toona meetings were held in Harris
burg each year. Following the appoint
ment of c. A. Preston, superintendent
of the Middle division, the meetings
were alternated between Harrisburg
and Altoona.
Another question considered this
afternoon was the eXoneration from
banquet expenses of all pensioners re-
ceiving less than $25 month. The
question of transportation fees Tor
some of the veterans who are not en-
joying pass privileges also came up
for discussion, and a lewiston was not
reached until late hour this after
noon. The election of officers fol.
lowed memorial exercises for the
members who died during the year.
There was no opposition to the re-
election of the present secretary and
treasurer. The superintendent of the
division is the permanent president of
the association. There were a num-
ber of candidates for e-presidents
and membership on committees.
A banquet will be held at o'clock
this evening in the big hall adjoining
the auditorium. The POSTMASTER will
be President Noel w. Smith. Addresses
will be made by Mayor John K. Royal,
w. 3. McCaleb, superintendent of the
Philadelphia division; f. H. Hoy, Sr.,
the Rev. Marion j. Kline, pastor of
the First Lutheran Church at Altoona,
a former Harrisburger, and the Rev.
A. f. Wagner of Gettysburg, formerly
of Altoona. The caterer for the ban
quet will be William B. Muller, of
Harrisburg, and an elaborate menu
will be served.
Through the courtesy of General
Superintendent George w. Creighton,
a special train will leave Harrisburg
at o'clock tonight to accommodate
vets residing in Altoona and at inter-
mediate points

sician for diseases of the nose and
throat in Kings College Hospital, a
specialist whom he had consulted
when he was in London in 1910. The
exertion of addressing the Royal Geo
graphical Society last night brought
about elimination of the weakness
which Colonel Roosevelt's friends OBJ
served on his arrival in London. 1t
was on account of throat trouble that
he insisted on speaking in small hall,
instead of the large one in which the
society had wished to hold the meeting
in order to accommodate the great
number who had sought to obtain
seats.
Colonel Roosevelt's voice gave him
much trouble during the lecture,
which was apparent to all in the the
ater, and toward the end much huslli-
ness developed. For this reason he
visited the physician to-day.
DR.. Thomson, after a thorough ex-
animation, pronounced the verdict
that Roosevelt must not attempt to
speak in the open air. or indulge In
extended speechmaking under any
circumstances for several months. He
said that the condition was the result
of Colonel Roosevelt's last hard cam
paign, as a primary cause, and that
the Brazilian fever, from which the
Colonel had suffered, affected his

The ex-President, whose voice was
somewhat husky to-day, accepted the
situation cheerfully. He announced
that he would obey the doctors or

throat, and that he had proposed to

Only Colered Men on Jury
When Pascal Hall Is Hung?
Sheriff May Set PRECEDENT Doesn't Want to Die; Asks
For Pigs Eye For Dinner

Only colored men may serve in the
official capacity of jurors and physi-
clans at the execution of Pascal Hall
next Wednesday morning.
Whether or not this unusual prece-
dent will be set for what may be the
last hanging in the Dauphin county
jailyard, will depend upon the appli-
cations for jury service that may be
received from Sheriff II. c. Wells.
For the sheriff announced to-day
that he will give colored applicants
the preference in making up the panel
of twelve jurors which the law re-
quires must witness the execution.
To date there has been but one re-
quest for such service from a negro.
Since assuming office the sheriff has
had as many as 500 applicants to see
various hangings only one of which
is a negro. The sheriff will also dele
gate colored physicians to attend.

The "one-way drive" is to be in
augurated in Wildwood Park, par
ticularly on the bluff road winding
along the edge of the lake above the
breast of the dam.
Park Commissioner NJ. Harvey Tay-
lor and Assistant Park superintendent
Hoftort are now busy working out the
details of the scheme and it is hoped
within few days to devise a system
whereby motor and other vehicular
traffic may move but one way-either
north or south-over the lake roads.
The probabilities are that the north

This will mean that motorists, etc, will
be expected to enter the upper end of
the park via the Linglestown and river
roads, or by the Linglestown road via
the back road that leads out of Wild
wood Park after 1t crosses the creek
below Hepford's farm. Up to this
point, however. the travellers could go
both ways. This would allow tourists
entering from the Maclay street en-
trance a chance to see the beauties of
the park as far as the dam and return
by the same way.
The abrupt though graceful curves
of the bluff road frequently give the
average chauffeur food for much
quick but serious thought, and it is
feared that some time q dangerous
accident may occur on the narrow
roads. The one-way drive, it is be-
