beginning to stream out to the theatres.

The two men left the edge OF the hotel

floor, upon which a celebrated kick king

stocks and bonds, which he was trans

the Exchange to a safety deposit box
in the vaults of the Montgomery Ma

The police were notified OF the rob-
berry some hours after its occurrence
by the representatives of a private de-
tective agency who said Doctor Hoch-
meister had not gone direct to the
Detective Bureau in City Hall, being
stranger in the country. unfamiliar
with American methods.
In his statement to the police, Doc
tor HochmeIster said he entered the
train at 5th street with relative, and
took seat in the last car, the one
on the platform side nearest the door
He placed the portmanteau In the seat
beside him, against the wall OF the
car. and started reading a letter.
When he arose to leave the train at
18th street the black portmanteau was
gone, He could give the police no
clue as to the robbers

Dr.. Kirk Tells How
Dentistry Cures Many
Serious Disorders

DR.. e. C. Kirk. dean of the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania dental school, ad-
dressed a large audience in the Tech
high school auditorium last night un-
der the auspices of the Harrisburg
Dental Society.
DR.. Kirk In a most able manner
and much such language as the lay
man could understand and appreciate
concise1y explained the relationship
existing between the nerves with
which the teeth are connected with
the other organs and functions of the
body. He proved how irritation of
these nerve endings could produce dis
turbances in other places quite remote
from the seat of the trouble.
After dwelling at some length upon
the micro-organisms of the mouth and
their effect upon the teeth and the
adjacent tissues he took up the par
tieuIar purpose of his message, which
was to demonstrate the effects of dis
turbances of dental origin upon the
mentality of the subject. Numerous
slides were shown. and records pro-
duced which demonstrated the relief
and cure of cases of epilepsy. st. Vitus
dance, imbecility loss of memory and
various other mental disorders.
