"The captain east anchor in twenty

Governor AGAINST TWO
Terms FOR EXECUTIVES
So Declares Himself in Vetoing the
Bill Permitting Burgesses to Sue
ceed Themselves - Kills Game
Wardens' Expense Increase

Governor Brumbaugh to-day vetoed
the following bills:
Making an appropriation to the
State Game Commission to pav sal
aries, travelling expenses, etc., incident
to the protection of game preserves.
The Governor says that it is a grave
question whether this is an opportune
time to increase salaries and in this
manner lessen the sum to be set aside
from the hunters license fund for
bounties and for restocking the game
preserves. He expresses the hope that
another bill may be prepared appro-
priating the hunters license fees as
defined in the act of 1918.
Making burgess of borough
eligible to the Office for the next sue
ceeding term. The Governor thinks
the act of 1893 making such officers
ineligible to succeed themselves has
worked well. He concludes:
The fear that immediate success
sion may in some cases work to the
harm of our people, and the general
trend of thought in favor of one term
for executives alike impel me to ques-
tion the wisdom of this BILL"

Late WAR news SUMMARY

Operations of military airmen over
shadowed all other developments of the
war to-day. German aviators accom-
plished one of their most daring feats,
penetrating by aeroplane to within
thirty miles of London in a daylight
raid. They dropped bombs on several
towns, but so far as is known little
damage was done.
Marked activity at the German air
ship bases at Emden and at Cuxhaven
is reported from Holland and it is said
three Zeppelins were sighted flying
westward over Dutch Islands in the
North sea.
Both the French and German official
reports mention the operations of aero
planes. The Berlin statement says air
ships of the allies threw bombs on DO
sitions behind the lines and also caused
the death of several civilians.
A French battleship bombarded the
Syrian coast yesterday. A statement

italy HAS 100000 men
READY TO ENTER THE WAR

On the Italian frontier, Via Paris,
April 16, 1886 A. M.-Italy to-day
has 100000 first line soldiers under
arms. They are from 20 to 26 years
of age.
General zupeli, the Italian Minister
of War, speaking ON the military situa-
tion in Italy, said that miracle had
been accomplished in that a country
which for about 20 years had main
tanned a military organization merely
for the preservation of peace had col
lected what he termed one of the
most perfect machines.
In view of the extensive prepara-
tions which have been made, the qnes-
tion is asked with increased frequency
why Italy does not enter the war. Men
in position to speak with authority
say that a majority favor war, while
the government still hopes to obtain
territorial concessions from Austria
without rupture of friendly relations.

TAX COLLECTOR BLOCK
Gone away TO MARRY
Despite Secrecy He Tried to Maintain,
1t Is Learned That He Is About to
Wed Mrs. Hope Sangree Kaufman,
Probably in New York

William D. Block, Harrisburg's Ii.
cense tax collector and erstwhile as
sistant to the City Health Officer,
pierced by little Dan Cupid's arrows,
slipped out of Harrisburg late last
night and, according to his son, Will
liam, is to be married in New York
City tonight to Mrs. Hope Sangree
Kaufman, who until few weeks ago
lived at Is North Sixteenth street.
The license tax officer would not
even tell his son of the details of the
wedding plans nor would he say posi-
lively that the marriage would take
place in New York, so eager was he in
his efforts to keep his friends in the
dark as to the wedding plans. Mrs.
Kaufman, however, whispered the story
to members of her family, although
they to-day would make no announce
ment, except to say that "after the
wedding proper notices of the event
will be sent to the Harrisburg news
papers. These notices, they said,
would be forthcoming possibly to-mor-
row.
Mr.. Block 8 first wife, died several
years ago. Mrs. Kaufman and her
former husband, Walter Kaufman, of
Steelton, were divorced five or six years
ago.
1t was learned from Mrs. Kauff-
man s family that she and her grown
daughter, Miss Theodore, went yester-
day to Baltimore, on visit This led
to the belief that the license tax Of
ficer would meet his brde-to-be in the
Maryland city and then go to New
York where the ceremony would be
performed. Belief also was expressed
that Allen Sangree, New York news
paperman and brother of Mrs. Kauff-
man, would attend the wedding to-
gether with Mrs. Kauffman's daugh-
ter.
The license tax officers headquar-
ters are in the Office of City Clerk
Charles A Miller, in the Court House,
and the coming wedding was the sub
ject for general conversation in that
office this morning. Mr.. Block himself
always denied that April 16 was the
date set for the wedding, vet his
friends noted that during the last sew
