Brumbaugh Gives Ohio
Governors Warming

Governor Brumbaugh to-day sent a
warning to Governor Frank E. Willis,
of Ohio, that Secretary of Internal
Affairs Houck. who was eighty years
young" yesterday was about to visit
Ohio. The Governor of Ohio had writ
ten to Mr.. Houck yesterday giving him
congratulations in his own peculiar
way. He and Governor 15rumbaugh
and DR.. Houck have lectured from
the same platform and are intimate
friends.
Governor Brumbaugh's letter is as
follows:
Dear Willis:
Houck is on his way to Columbus
armed to the teeth. He is doing moth
ing on the matter here as our laws
are really enforced, but the moment
he reaches your soil, he will likely
break loose in a regular wild man
hunt" Look out for him. He is a
dangerous fellow when he once tastes
gore.
Your cautioning friend.
BRUMBAUGH.
p. S. - You can tame him with
sauerkraut. It's an antidote for Dutch
Vagaries.

tacks on Douaumont by way of Va
cheauVille. If successfully pressed,
il would serve TO reduce the awkward
salient along the bend in the Meuse
north of Verdun.
heavy guns of the Teutons on the
French center on the Douaumont
plain is continuing with undiminish-
violence.
In the Champagne surprise attack
recovered for the Germans the posi-
ton east of Maison dc Champagne
which the French took on February
IL.
The attack on Verdun has shifted
to the west and the Germans are now
engaged in pounding their way toward
the fortress from beyond the Meuse,
advancing along the railroad that
parallels the westerly bank.
Last night the German troops as
saulted and took the town of Forges
niuc miles northwest of Verdun, but
were prevented by the French from
debouchinG against the Cote de role,
a height about n mile TO the south.
To-day comes the admission from
Paris that the Germans, after Vio-
lent bombardment, succeeded in fore
ing their way through Forges and
along the railroad in the vicinity of
Regneville, a village a mile and a half
southeast.
Take Hill mt Heavy Cost
simultaneously an entire division
violently attacked and captured Hill
No. 265, southwest of Regneville.
Heavy losses were sustained by the
Germans in taking this position, Paris
declares.
The new drive of the Teutons ap-
parently is in the nature of a clearing
operation, probably indirectly aimed at
ultimate possession of the dominating
heights in this region. For days they
have been hammering the command
ing height of lie Mort Homme and
other elevations west of their present
line of advance, which is bringing
their infantry ahead in the same gen.
erai direction.
The present movement. if success
full, also will straighten out the battle
line to the northwest of Nerdun, which
now curves sharply northward from
the point of the bend in the Meuse,
the territory included within which,
lying east of the river, was some time
ago reported clear of French forces.
French lines farther west have held
and they are in possession of Bethin-
court and nearby territory, and still
occupy Cote de pOie.

News of the death of Frederick A.
Kelley, formerly of this city and for
the last few years acting superinten-
dent of large gas works at Water
bury, Connecticut, was received with
a shock among friends in the city
last evening. Mr. Reiley, who was
only 81 years of age, was very well
known and popular with both young
and old in the city. He possessed a
host of friends. He graduated from
the Harrisburg High school with the
honor of having been president of his
class in 1906 and after four-year
engineering course at Cornell took up
work in New England.
The cause of his death is directly
attributed to a hip injury received
while playing football at Cornell. Mr..
Reiley was powerfully built and very
athletic, but the injury which he re-
ceived during his undergraduate days
developed at times into what seemed
TO be rheumatism. His death came
as a complete surprise. The funeral
will be held directly upon the arrival
of the train bringing his body to-
morrow afternoon and burial will be
made in the Harrisburg cemetery. 1t
will be private and there will be no
flowers.
Frederick A. Kelley was the son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. James McKendrie Reiley
formerly of this city. who moved to
Buffalo, n. y, several years ago. After
his graduation from Cornell in 1910,
Mr.. Reiley married Miss Anna Miller.
the daughter of n well-known candy
manufacturer of Philadelphia. He is
survived by a brother, James McKen-
drie, Jr, who is a student at Cornell,
and three sisters, Miss Carrie Kelley,
of 129 Pine street, this city; Mrs.
Adrian Aikman. indianapolis, Ind;
and Mrs. Henry Strock, of Pittsburgh.
Miss Grettie Swartz of 129 Pine street

arc taken, however. Harrisburg will
not act officially.
Council this morning again tenn
porarily postponed action on the Gross
"Hardscrabhle" resolution. MIR. Gross.
who offered the measure. moved to-
day for postponement of action and
his move was seconded by Mr.. Bow
man. The report of the viewers has
been excepted to by affected property
owners and argument on these eXCep-
lions will he heard by the Dauphin
County Court on March 2S. Until
these legal questions are determined
Council was unanimously of the
opinion that definite action fixing the
time for the removal of the residents
in the district should not be taken.
With the condemnation, it was pointed
out, Harrisburg would forthwith be
required to file a bond of ot least
100000 and that the interest on the
sum would have to be borne by the
municipality until the whole question
is settled.
City Joins Utilities Bureau
Harrisburg officially joined the
Utilities Bureau of the United States
to-day by approving the report of a
committee recommending that all
third class cities of the State become
members. The purpose is to establish
uniform system of research, collec-
tion of data, etc, for all the cities of
the country relative to the lighting,
water and other public utilities. The
annual fee is 500. w. l.. Gorgas is
the local member of the committee.
Initial steps toward canceling city
bonds by devoting the interest earned
on various issues were taken to-day
when Commissioner Gorgas offered a
measure providing for the transfer of
more than $4,000 from the interest
r..
pended in liquidating a similar amount
of bonds in the 1901-34 issues.
Want Lighting Scheme Changed
A committee from the recently or
EaniZed uptown business mems asso-
citation asked Council to rearrange the
proposed scheme for ornamental
standard lighting in Third street by
placing the lights from Reilly street
southwark as far as they will go in
stead of beginning at North street and
placing them northwardly. The COM
mittee included l.. II, Kinnard, IT. A.
Robinson. Il. l.. Rinkenbach, William
Brown, William Stecllley. G. c. Giede,
r. D: Beman. Commissioner Bowman,
in whose department the lighting is,
said the question hadn't been definitely
determined as yet, as there is a division
in Council on the subject.
William d. Block was reelected
special license tax officer for the ensu-
ing year. Ordinances passed finally
included the following:
New Measures Adopted
Paving Second street, Emerald to
Seneca, and Reels Seneca to Schuyl-
kill; placing sewer in Fulton street.
Walnut, from 103 feet east of Hancock
to Jamestown road.
New measures introduced included
the following:
By Mr.. Lynch - Striking 10 feet
from Holly street from Eighteenth to
Norwood; widening Hillside road from
Bellevue to Twenty-first, and Holly
street. from Eighteenth to Norwood,
10 eighteen and twenty-five feet, re-
spectively; authorizing Pennsylvania

FREIGHT CONGESTION CLEARING

Freight shipments for Philadelphia
tied up here and in other points be-
tween that city and the western part
of the State, will be handled before
the end of the week, as thirty of the
forty-four freight stations i'm Phila-
delphia were cleared to-day for re-
ceving domestic shipments. 1t was a
virtual lifting of the ten-day freight
embargo, and orders went out to di-
vision freight agents to-day that busi-
ness will be taken for all but fourteen
points in Philadelphia. Practically
every station in the central part Of
the city and West Philadelphia, has
been cleared during the last five days.

Pennsy Plans Terminal
Tunnel For PHILADELPHIA

Tentative plans for great tunnel
terminal system i'm Philadelphia, TO
cost 30,000,000, at rough estimate,
are in the mind of the Pennsylvania
Railroad management.
The plans have not even been fully
considered, but are being discussed on
all sides. If carried out within a few
years, a new subterranean station
would probably be constructed in the
space between Filbert and Cuthbert
streets, and the tunnel terminal sys-
tenn would be equipped for electrical
operation as well as for the steam
trains. 1t is believed, too that the
three stops at North Philadelphia,
Broad Street and the West Philadel-
phia stations, could be made more
quickly if the terminal system was
adopted and built

Without Knife
Avoid Dangerous Operation by Using
Lohmann's Gallstona to Free
Yourself of Gall-Stonea

This medicine has been employed
successfully for years. Numerous
letters from grateful former sufferers
attest it's result-gettinS qualities. 1t
is positively unfair to yourself to un-
dergo a painful, dangerous and often
useless operation until you have
found out what Lohmann's Gal1stona
can do for you. :
An operation only removes the
stones that have already formed. II
doesn't correct the conditions that
cause them, and therefore another
operation may shortly be necessary.
Lohmann's Gallstona is designed to
not only remove the gall-stones (by
dissolution), but to correct the kid
ney, liver and bowel conditions that
cause them. Hence, it's remarkable
success.
Which will you do? viii you risk
your life and many dollars for an
operation, or will you risk one dollar
for package Of Lohmanns Call
stona? Which course is the wiser?
Naturally, you will prefer the lat
ter so get a package to-day. Don't put it
of until another hideous attack of gall.
stone collie grips you. For salea and recon-
