ACTIVITIES IN THE LEGISLATURE
THIRD JUDGESH|P
BILL REPORTED OUT
Nissley Measure Receives Ap-
provaI of the House Committee
and Is on Calendar

Thirteen bills, including those for
the additional judge for Dauphin
county and designating the mountain
laurel as the State flower were report
ed from committees at q session OF
the House held late yesterday after
noon. Two bills proposing amend
ments to the school code were mega
lively recommended, it being the
policy of the educational committee to
allow the code to be further tried out.
Mr.. Brosius. Jefferson, introduced
bill that treasurers of counties, mu-
inequalities and school districts shall
deduct State tax as payment of inter-
est on dividends on debts due and pay
same to State treasurer who shall re-
turn rs per cent. to the respective
treasurer within thirty days.
Other bills presented were:
Mr. Sinclair, Fayette-Regulatin
issues of trading stamps.
Mr.. Powell. Luzerne-FiXing pay of
assessors in boroughs and townships at
S5 per day.
Mr. Dell, misunderstanding
that the county taxation assessors
shall report annually acreage set out
in wheat, rye, corn, buckwheat, barley

vested number of domestic animals,
fowls and hives of bees; production of
fruit and hay; said information to be
sent to the Department of Agricul-
ture.

The only State having such a divl-
sion is Jew York, and the only other
one that can possibly furnish O divi-
sion is Pennsylvania, but whether or
not a division can be organized and
maintained will depend upon the in
crease to be made in the appropri-
alton.
Another feature of the bill is the
change in the method of selecting
Commissioned officers Heretofore
field officers of regiments have been
elected by the line officers. The new
bill provides for their appointment by
the Governor. 1t also provides for tho
appointment by the Governor of cap
tains and first lieutenants of compan-
les, the men of the company to elect
second lieutenants. 1t is believed this
method will secure a higher degree OF
efficiency las officers before being ap-
pointed will be required to undergo an
examination to prove their fitness for
commission. Staff officers of regi-
ments will be appointed by regimentaI
commanders, as heretofore The
quartersmasters' and subsistence de-
partments will be consolidated and
known as quartermaster corps. In all
other respects the new law will be-
practically the same as the present
law. The new bill will place the Ma
tional Guard in an advanced position,
and practically conform to the re-
quirements of the War Department,
as to organization, training and disci-
pline.
The new bill should it become a law
will become effective on June 1, next.

MAWSON'S STORY Of
TRIP THRILLS CROWD
Pictures of Ice-covered, Wind
swept Continent Impressive;
Animal Life Amusing

The audience that sat spell-bound
throughout the verbal moving picture
trip across the great ice barrier of the
Antarctic with Sir Douglas Mawson in
the MAJESTIC theater last evening, Incl
dentally and indirectly had a sneaking
suspicion of why certain spike-hel-
meted hosts are having such a worri-
some time in Flanders.
The dogged. determined, never
know-when-he's- e's-beaten spirit that
drove the Australian scientist and eX-
plorer for miles and miles in the
darkness and bitter cold and biting
drift of a 100-mile South Polar bliz-
zard-alone--is the same, one couldn't t
help but believe that is backing the
stands in the trenches of Europe by
the men of Old England.
The battling spirit of Sir Douglas
and his party was only one impressive
feature of the lecture. 1t is safe to
say that the big audience that filled the
house was never so alternately thrilled
and Mortified and amused. For while
the story Sir Douglas told and illus
trated was instructive and wonderful
ly interesting, it was replete with just
enough humor to give zest to it-and,
incidentally to prove the fallacy of the
generally accepted characterization of
an Englishman's sense of humor.

NEARLY MILLION
DOLLARS IN GAME
Interesting Report Made to the
Legislature by the State Game
Commissioners

A report showing that almost mill
lion dollars worth of game was killed
in Pennsylvania last year has been
issued by the State Game Commits
sion. The statement shows that g.
1856, 556 pieces of legal game were kill
ed with a value of $946, which
does not include some birds.
The statement is the most complete
ever issued and is based on official re-
ports. 1t shows the following kills:
Four hundred thousand ruffed
grouse, 100000 rabbits, 37,150 quail,
2S4,2SS squirrels, 1903 woodcock,
81, 900 water fowl, 9,599 raccoons, 37S
bear and 1,102 deer, or 2,736,556 pieces
of legal game weighing $3.50 301
pounds.
The report says the estimate does
not include the value of shore birds
killed, as will be noted above. To
this might have been added the value
of the snipe and reed birds, at least,
but was not done because same would
be difficult to ascertain.
= From June l, 1913, to December 3 4,
1914, we pushed to a successful con-
-elusion sos cases. We have lost but
two cases heard by courts: the case
of Commonwealth VS.. Dickinson, in
Clearfield county, the defendant be-
ing charged with killing a deer ille-
gally, and the case of Commonwealth
vs.. Capra, Pike county, the defendant
being an allen, and being charged
with having in possession certain guns
contrary to law We feel that both of
these cases should have been won in
stead of lost. We have had report
ed about ten cases certioraried and
lost because of defective records, and
lost about the same number of cases
heard by Justices"

RELIGIOUS WAR IS
NARROWLY AVERTED
Father Zuvich, Croatian Priest, Is
Accused of Barring Church
Doors Against Serbians

President Wilson's declaration of
neutrality got severe blow at Steel
ton to-day because of the alleged bar
ring of Serbians bearing the flag of
their country from st. Mary's Gro
attain Catholic Church, by Father An
ton Zuvich, rector of the church.
This morning more than a dozen
Croatian societies with total MEM
bership of several hundred had plan
ned to celebrate the twentieth ami
versary of the st. Lawrence Gro
attain society. The members had in
vited several hundred Serbians.
A near riot resulted when Father
Zuvich, it is said, announced that he
would not allow the Serbian flag in
the Croatian Church. Hard feelings
wern aroused on all sides, the Gro
atians taking the stand that Father
Zuvich's action was unwarranted and
that he was trying to raise race preju-
dice. Joseph Nerbos, president of the
st. Lawrence society, some time ago
told Father Zuvich of the celebration
to take place to-day and that the Ser
bians had been invited to attend.
Father Zuvich then stated that he did
not approve of their presence, it is all
legged.
When asked why he refused to allow
the Serbians to participate in the
celebration and services in the church
this morning, he said that his only
reason was that the Serbian flag rep
resented a different religion from that
of the Croatians. and that the present
war existing between the countries in
Europe haG nothing to do with it.
X. Pozega said this morning, The
Serbian flag was taken into the same
church before and no objections were
raised This is a personal affair of
Father Zuvich's. There is no church
rule to prevent bringing the flag of
another religion into the church and
the Father knows it"
Publishes Accusation
Soon after the declaration of war in
Europe, John Krasic, editor of the
New York Croatian News, came to
Steelton. investigated and later pub
lished an accusation charging Father
Zuvich with advising his people to do
the Serbians bodily harm.
"ShouId BE Friends
Stephan Rebrovic, of Pittsburgh,
secretary of the American Federation
of National Croatian Societies, said in
regard to Father Zuvich's action, II
thing Father Zuvich did not show the
proper spirit in barring the Serbians
from church. i do not know much
about local conditions, but / endorse
the action of the local Creations in re-
fusng to go back on their invited
guests, and remaining out of church.
So far as Europe is concerned, the ma
tions there started the trouble, let
them finish it. We over here in
America should not take sides. Gro
atians and Serbians should be friends
here"

Senate in continuous session for 3S
hours and 45 minutes, a record for
that period and one that was not sur
passed until 2.45 this morning.
Still the opponents of the passage
of the shipping bill fought on, after
their record for endurance had gone
down as history. Senator Sherman,
who occupied the floor, discussed the
evils of the government ownership as
S ,nator after Senator disappeared to
his home or committee room for
little rest and shift of janitors
moved about the chamber clearing up
the rubbish that had collected on the
floor during the two-day session.
Senator Lea, of Tennessee, presided,
and Senator Lee, of Maryland. con-
stituted the entire majority side of
the chamber Senators Smooth and
William Alden Smith, of Michigan,
hours in addition to Senator Sherman.
With their eyes badly swollen from
the strain of the extraordinary work
the regular force of official reporters
were compelled to give way, and new
Istenographic reporters for the first
time in years, took their places on the
floor.
The period of calm early to-day
came only after a bitter struggle for
supremacy about midnight. The Re-
publicans and their supporters on the
Democratic side ought to end the ses-
sion but the motion to adjourn was
lost by vote of "A to A.
On the other hand Senators F'letch-
er and Stone attempted to get a vote
on the initial portions of the recon-
mitment motion. namely the length of
the term for which tn government
ship might be leased. Republican
Senators clamored in excitement for
the right to speak, but Senator Stone
obtained the floor, cutting off Senator
McCumber's speech which had been
planned to continue far into the morn
ing hours.
parliamentary Wrangle ensued
and the Democrats abandoned their
efforts to force a vote. although every
available Senator and Vice-president
Marshall were called to the chamber.
The encounter was marked by a YER
bal clash between Senators Stone and
Penrose as a result of which Senator
Penrose was taken to his hotel with
temperature of over 100 degrees.
Only one attempt was made during
the early morning hours of Senator
Sherman's speech to take him from
the floor With Senator James in the
chair for a few moments, Senator
Hughes made the point of order that
Senator Sherman was not discussing
the bill. Senator Sherman explained
that his remarks regarding the oper-
alton of the parcel post system was
in order because they dealt with gov
ernment ownership. Senator Hughes
finally withdrew his point, Senator
Kern, however, served notice that he
might renew the point later
At 9.10 o'clock Senator Sherman
yielded to Senator Townsend. another
Republican.
