Boat Liverymen Are
Ready to Handle Big
Increase in Business

That the boating season of 1916
promises to be a record breaker in
Harrisburgs history is indicated by
the more than ordinarily elaborate
preparations for handling the in
thusiasts that are being made by boat
liverymen and owners of pavilions.
A. P. Dintaman, one of the big
gest liverymen along the water front
is busy overhauling, repairing and
repainting and otherwise preparing
for increased business. One of the
biggest improvements perhaps, will be
the new runway" for canoes oppo-
site the main entrance to the pavil-
ion. This is now in course of con-
struction and will be large enough and
solid enough to Withstand the strain
of hundreds of canoes this year. New
boats are being ordered too. one
of the new type of Channel pro-
peller power boats was recently pur-
chased by Attorney Frank Snodgrass
through Mr.. Dintaman. The new
type of boat carries its screw propel-
Ter in a grove or channel under the
keel in such a way as to permit the
revolutions without exposing the
blades below the bottom of the craft.
The motor thus can travel any place
in the river in six inches of water
At the Berrier boat landing and at
a number of floats along the river
shores, there is increased activity
among the liverymen. George and
Jonas Keist have nearly finished the
construction of their new floating boat
house north of Paxton street.

feat for the title holders, the latter
will be succeeded on the team by the
winners. The six players who sur
vive the elimination contest will rep

Federal Court at Florence Hears Pa
thetic Distilling Case.
A Housewife Restored.

Florence. March S.-A number Of
cases were heard in the United States
Court to-day, and Il number OF con-
victions followed, mostly with short
terms OF Imprisonment. A very pa
thetic case was that OF Mrs. Mary
Ann Stricklin, Of Horny, convicted of
Illicit distilling. She is grandma
ther. ller husband was arrested
some time ago for Illicit distilling
and has just completed his sentence
in the Atlanta penitentiary. The old
woman had the family to care for
and she knew no other way, aDpar-
entity, than to carry on the illicit still,
and she was captured and is now to
serve a sentence Of three months in
the. Dillon jail and pay fine OF
$500. The judge gave a very force
ful talk TO the family. especially to
the husband, who did not seem to
appreciate the situation.
Another case OF interest was that
Of j. NJ. Strickling and }. w. Moore,
arrested near Lake City for running
Il still. 1t seems that they are two
white men who had gotten in some
trouble at Littleton, y. c., for tho
same oficnse ard they moved down
here TO opcrcate where they thought
they would not be caught so quickly.
They were sentenced to a year and IA
day each and Il fine OF $500 each and
costs.
