New Brass Signs Extend
Welcome to Harrisburg

Both the Reading and PENNSYLVANIA
passenger stations now display the
brass Welcome to Harrisburg" signs
installed by the Chamber of Com
merce.
This work of the local Ch mber has
attracted considerable attention all
over the state.
The Harrisburg Chamber of Com
merce is receiving inquiries from other
commercial organizations as to where
they can have the signs made. Not
all cities have brass sign making facili-
ties like Harrisburg. This morning
the Harrisburg Chamber OF Com
merce received an inquiry from a
Chamber of Commerce in the north
western portion of the state that want
ed to have four brass welcome signs
made. The business will probably go
to a Harrisburg firm.

 The greatest of all trips in the Yosemite is the one to Glacier Point, and anybody who can sit upon the back of trail horse may make the journey in safety. Starting from the hotel early in the morning the guide leads one through the f1ower-covered meadows and into the woods along a shady trail to what is known as Mirror Lake--a little body of water nestled at the foot of a peak which is reflected in it's waters with such per fectness that 1t Is extremely difficult in photograph to tell which is refiec- tion and which is the original.

 It was at one of these little mid night suppers when the bright lights enspiriting music and sparkling wines had the effect of loosening her tongue and waxing confidential she told her young escort (my stool-pigeon) that Sheldon C. and E.

 In few hours we had the wires hot. Spokane inspectors were in- structed to get after Preston Burr at once. In the event of his making his way towards Portland. Ore. inspectors at that city were ordered to be on the alert. The latter move was wise, for Preston Burr did jump Spokane for Portland.
 An inspector who went to the Mich l igan farm caught Tobey red handed. while we seized E. II. Burr at his office together with all his books, rec ords and the correspondence that had been pouring in on him. thus giving us fair idea of the number of the vic- tims.

Then all at once the grim sentinels which stand like guardians at the entrance come into view and at least four mighty waterfalls are visible through the shadows of the pines. All Nature is alive and the twittering of birds and the odor of flowers soon reach the ears and nostrils of the traveller.
 Then the Bridal Veil Fall is reached This stream is fully thirty feet wide and falls a distance of six hundI ed feet, then rushes over a pile of rocks and makes a leap of three hundred feet more. From one point of view the break in the stream is not visible and it appears as an un- broken fall of nine hundred feet.

 Our attention to the new concern was attracted by the tremendous vol umes of mail being delivered to it's palatial suite of offices In Wall street each day. No mining company in business for years was receiving as much mail as this newcomer, and that in itself was suspicious. Some of this incoming mail we seized and scanned but there was nothing to indicate just what bait had been thrown out by the promoters to call forth the rain of checks and money orders that were pouring in each day. What we most needed before We could take any drastic step was to get hold of some of the company's literature and see its glittering prospectuses that proved so alluring.
