"KMG OFLAKSAK'
KILLS PET CATS
WITH REFUGEES
Capt. Sctlemn1er Refuses to
Allow Animals from Wrecked
Schooner on Island

All the felines' nine lives each did
not save the two cats Of the American
schooner o. NJ Kellogg from sad
fate at the hands OF Capt. Max
Schlemmer, king" of Laysan Island,
who slew the cats after the Japanese
cook had rescued them from the sink
ing schooner at peril Of his own life.
while the ship was going to pieces
on Marc reef and the crew taking to
the boats" said Mrs Charles A. Lunn.
wife of Capt Lunn, this morning at
Pier z, qpur Japanese cook, who was
very fond of the two cats, saved them
and carried them under his arm to
the lifeboat
He sheltered them carefully until
we got to Laysan, but there Schlem-
mer said he was in charge and that
no cats were allowed on the island,
as IL was bird reservation. He kill
ed the cats. and the cook was very
blue over 1t, because he was very
fond of them"
Mrs. Lunn, the only woman on the
schooner, the refugees from which ar:
rived in the Iroquois last night, said
this was only her second ocean voy.
age, and she thought for time she
would never see land again.
She said the Is white men and
women on Midway Island. at the cable
station, had been extremely kind to
them, and had done everything to re-
iieye their sufferings.
II saw more canary birds at Mid.
way than ever before in my life," she
added. There must have been at
least 155 canaries around the houses
at meal time. They were lovely to
look at and sang most beautifully.
There are no dogs or cats allowed on
Midway Island either. so that even il
our Japanese boy had managed to get
his two cats to Midway. they'd prob
ably have been killed there anyway"
Mrs. Lunn said Capt. Schlemmer
told them he was in charge Of Laysan
Island, and had been given authority
to look after the birds on 1t as he saw
fit.
AS matter of fact, the department
of agriculture has ordered that he be
removed from Laysan as a trespasser.
and within a short time the coast
guard cutter Thetis is expected to go
there for that purpose, as the naval
tug Iroquois which picked up the KEEL
logg's crew was not able to receive
the message sent her from here after
she left Midway. ordering her to
change her course and stop at Laysan
to remove all trespessers.

Ask Reason For Questions.
During the examination the attor-
neys for the respondents inquired to
know the purpose Of this line Of ques-
tions. Attorney Clarence Olson, one
of the counsel for the territory, stated
that the object was to determine just
how much capital the Rapid Transit
was able to realize from the property
acquired by the purchase Of the tram
way system. He added that the terri
tory wanted to know how much Of the
property was sold for cash and how
much actually went into the road.
"Our contention" continued Attor-
ney Olson, is that the Rapid Transit
has no right TO increase its capital
stock unless it is apparent that 1t
has actual property in use to such a
value as would justify the capitalize
ton asked for. In arriving at that
amount II In necessary to ascertain

Entitled to No Credit.
In connection with this the terri
tory charged that the Rapid Transit
is entitled to no credit for the pur-
chase OF the tramway franchise and
that the territory Is entitled to show
how much Of the property Of the
tramway went into the Rapid Transit
system.

one Of the attorneys for the Rapid

Moose to Hold Week Frolic
at City Grays' Armory

Members of Harrisburg Lodge No.
1O7, Loyal Order of Moose, who plan
ned for a dance and open house at
the Armory tomorrow night, at the
eleventh hour, found it necessary to

to continue the fun and frolic for a
week, including Saturday, November
81. The entertainment is for the
members families and their friends.
The committee is already busy in

edibles of every description will be
provided for the Moose and their
friends.

free to everybody. The music will be
furnished by the All-Moose orchestra.

SERVE AMERICAN |
YOUR HOME TOWN
Unless You Love Your Com
munity You Don't Love Your
Country, Says Mr.. Dave

G. Grosvenor Dave, of Washing
ton. d. c., at the MONDAY luncheon of
the Chamber OF Commerce at the Har-
rIsburg Club to-day, made strong
and eloquent appeal for the applica-
tion of patriotism on the part of the
Individual to the locality i'm which he
lives. The clear and forceful. visual
ization OF his IDEAS which were aimed
to assure the individual that he is best
serving America, not necessarily by
dying, but by living, and serving his
own community brought his speech
home to his audience in a convincing
manner. The love of America is after
all love of ones own community, he
said
The test of our lives three genera
tions hence, said Mr.. Dave, will be
the proof of whether our work has
been done that the American idea
OF self-government might live. His
remarks were particularly appreciated
in that they were vindication of the
spirit which fifteen years ago inspired
the moving forces that have in that
time accomplished so much in the way
OF civic betterment for the city of Har-
risburg as an example for the fu-
ture.
MIR. Dave is an expert on CONNER
cial organization and it was mainly
through his efforts that the Chamber
of Commerce idea has been evolved
and has made possible the organiza-
tlon of Harrisburgs Chamber. The
speaker was introduced by Samuel
Kunkel and after the luncheon was
escorted about the city by the COM
mittee.
Later he addressed the students of
the Harrisburg Academy, impressing
upon them the same idea of depend
ence upon and cooperation with other
men, the idea that has made the sue
cess of the Chambers of Commerce
and which has brought men Ito
sense of their relationship to one an
other and to a realization that the
waste that is going on in every activity
throughout the country must be stop
red.'
Speaking of Thanksgiving, Mr..
Dave made an appeal against SNUG
satisfaction with the good things
which are ours, while so many un-
wholesome conditions are all about
us that need amelioration, and his
remarks deploring the thousands of
useless laws that are being vomited
forth by all the legislatures, under the
mistaken idea that law is a cure-all
for evil, met with enthusiastic ap-
plause.
President ]. William Bowman, in
congratulating the members of the
Chamber of Commerce on the privilege
of having heard Mr.. Dave, referred
pleasantly to the fact that the dis
tingJished speaker was here at the
time of the organization of the local
hOdy
