Also, he wants the companies to send
in their checks for the annual fran
chise tax. This franchise tax is one
of the big sources of revenue of the

hundred thousand dollars a year. This
year it should go past the quarter of
million dollar mark, according to

manifested by a majority of traders to

Soon after the basis of the peace offer was

PROBE BAD MEAT
STORIES AT CAMP
Mt. Gretna Authorities Say the
Blame For Bad Food Lies
Elsewhere
By Associated Press

Mt. Gretna, Pa, July 2S.-General
Stillwell has conducted an investiga-
tion with regard to the presence in
the Third Brigade camp of a quantity
of bad meat which was refused by the
cooks of a company in the Ninth regi-
ment Wednesday. At headquarters it
was said that fault in the matter does
not lie here in camp and the blame
will be placed elsewhere.
Threatening weather hung over the
camp to-day. The troops had antici-
pated striking canvas, leaving only
their shelter tent standing, in antici-
patton of breaking camp tomorrow.
One of the companies in camp may
see border service. Word of the
transfer of Company F of the Fourth
Infantry on duty at Ell Paso to the
engineers corps was received In camp
last night and 1t is possible that a
company from Sunbury, belonging to
the separate battalion will go to Ell
Paso to take the place of Company F
which Joined with Company A of
Scranton and Company B of Phila-
delphia, will complete a full battalion
of engineers from this State at the
border.
Adjutant General Stewart was ex-
pected at camp to-day ana may give
the final word as to whether the Third
brigade will be turned into an
artillery regiment

TRAVELETTE
By NIKSAH
MALACCA

Malacca is a sleepy, even-tempered
old town that might be said to medi-
tate over its own past greatness ex-
cept that it does not seem to be medi-
tating about anything at all. Few ships
stop there, few white men live there,
the busy neighbcring cities of Penang
and Singapore refer to it contemptu-
ously as Sleepy Hollow" Only the
.Chinaman, always a philosopher, who
likes to spend his declining years lis
tening to the tinkle of wind bells and
gazing into some lily-pooI, often re-
tires to Malacca when he has made his
fortune.
Why they put Malacca where it is
gives the visitor something to specu-
late about. There is no visible har-
bor; the city is apparently set down
at random on the curving beach. Long
gravelly shadows extend far out from
shore, making it impossible for ships
of any size to run close in. An old
pier stretches its length far out into
the ocean, like a stiff arm reaching
out for the lost trade, but even the
pier is not much of a help to really big
ships. '...
Few people land at Malacca. The
arrival of a stranger on the beach at
tracts alIclIlOl even from the I'm pres
sive crowd of Malays and nondescript
Orientals who lounge about the shore
end of the old pier. At first glance
this seems to be a yellow city, for in
all its hundred thousand people there
are only about a hundred Europeans.
Malacca is not city of empty hous-
es, because the Malays and the poorer
Chinese have joyfully moved into any
accommodations they found vacant;
but it is distinctly city where many
of the houses have seen their best days.
There is an old cathedral built by the
Portuguese overlooking the city. The
roof has fallen in and tropic insects
scuttle up and down the walls BY day
it is given over to dust and ghosts, but
when darkness settles over the waters,
they light a great lantern in the old
tower, and mariners steer their course
by the mark of the ancient church.
There are two explanations of NAL
acca's present sleepness. The politi-
cal economists say that the trade has
gone to Penang and Singapore; but
there are some who will tell you the
story of st. Navier. That good man,
who worked doughtily for the faith
in the Orient, tried to convert the peo-
pie of Malacca, but they proved OBJ
durate. At leaving, the saint shook
the dust Of Malacca from his shoes
and it has never recovered since.
