IN INTERVIEW AT
JAIL WANTS PUBLIC TO FORGET

The remarkable story told by
Edgar E. Shoemaker, the former
billing clerk with the Harrisburg
Pipe and Pipe Bending Company.
continues to be a subject of much
interest in Harrisburg and vicinity.
Shoemaker's confession that he
took package of $40 bills from
the office of the company for which
he worked while assisting the treas
urer to verify the payroll, more
than a month ago, aroused intense
interest. When charged with the
theft, Shoemaker made a complete
confession to Pinkerton detective,
although he had previously prepared
and mailed a short confession to the
officials of the company from Mt.
Gretna, where he had gone when he
learned that he was under sus-
picion.
According to the billing clerks
story, knowing that he would be inn
plicated should the money be found
in his possession, he took the stack
of bills from the cellar of the room
ing house at S13 North Second street,
and after securely tying the bills in
a burlap wrapper, he Eipped a
small monkeywrench under the cord
of the package and threw the bundle
into the Susueqhanna river, above
Market street.
The officials of the Pipe Bending
plant placed implicit belief in Shoe
makers story, as did the Pinkerton
detective, who put the young man
through a pitiless grilling for thir-
teen hours. For two weeks search
ing parties dragged the river, but

Harper of Lynchburg. Va, Grand EX-
alted Ruler of Elks of the United

Pennsylvania Elks. The address was
full of patriotic advice. Mr.. Harper
was insistent that Americans stand

Lieutenant Governor McClaln also
was heartily applauded when he pre-
dicted that the United States would
be accorded due praise in ending the
war in favor of the allies.
This speech and others were deliv-

Major Levy, which has been doing
guard duty at Camp Hancock for
several weeks, and the Pennsylvania
men already arrived there are about
a thousand soldiers in camp.
Major George Hugh Smith, of the
quartermaster's department of the
Pennsylvania National Guard, arriv-
ed Monday in his automobile, having
had a satisfactory and uneventful
trip from Mount Gretna, which he
left Friday evening. He and Major
Rhodes, assistant chief of staff to
Major General Clement, preceded
the coming of General Clement and
and other members of his staff, who
are expected Tuesday.
To Welcome General Clement
When it was learned that General
Clement would reach Augusta Tues
day. q meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce was called and a commit
tee appointed to meet his train, and
extend him a cordial welcome to
Augusta, and arrange for a lunch
con in his honor if General Glenn
ent consented to it.
over 5000 men are now at work
rushing Camp Hancock to compile
ton and no effort is being spared to
get things in readiness for the daily
arriving troops from Pennsylvania.
All are agreed that the site is
ideal, the surroundings pleasant, and
that Camp Hancock will be a model
when completed. The healthfulness
of the sand hills on which the camp
is located has been long a matter
of record, and the merit OF this win
ter climate is attested by the crowd
ing of the winter tourist hotels here
every year, and the coming of men
like John D. Rockefeller, EX-Presi-
dent Taft, Frick, Kuhn, Crowell,
Hardy, Stack and a score of mill
lionaires who have tested the merits
and attractions of resorts in all quar-
ters of the globe, and have found
none more to their liking than
Augusta.

without avail. Since the story has
been given to the public hundreds
of persons have looked for the treas
ure, and because the package of
bills has not been located, many
persons doubt Shoemaker's story, and
claim to believe that the money has
been safely secreted away by the
young clerk.
When Shoemaker was asked at
the Dauphin County Jail if he has
been reading the papers, he replied
that he has read the Telegraph each
day. When told that many persons
Are inclined to doubt his story, the
accused man smiled gravely and re.
piled:
Il don't blame them, for it sounds
improbable enough. But it's true
every word of it,
Wants Public to Forget
The young man related again how.
when pursued by his conscience he
bought liquor at several hotels, and
when quite intoxicated decided to
dispose of the money. Some of the
details are little hazy to his mind,
but the main points stand out with
startling vividness.
Shoemaker regrets the publicity
that has been given his confession,
and expressed the hope that the
public will soon forget about the
entire affair.
II am guilty" he said "and while
bitterly regret that 1 fell when
the temptation presented itself, it
is now too late for regrets and L am
ready to take my medicine"
Shoemaker has been resting we'll
in his narrow quarters at the Jail,
and says he is indeed glad that the
matter is off his mind. He expects
to plead guilty to the charge at the
first opportunity.

the weather has been excellent; but
the engineers in charge of the big
Job and the impatient soldiers at the
other end of the line have had ar
ferent points of view. The latter, or
those in command, have wanted to
come ahead, a regiment at time
as the camp was ready to acconlmo-
date them; but the engineers have
desired to be ready for all oelore
any were allowed to come.
I'VE need our sidetracks. our cars,
our trucks and every facility and re-
source that we have to push our
work to completion. To interrupt II
by the coming of regiment OF men
and the use of our trucks to handle
their eulipment, and the blocking of
our sidetracks with their cars would
mean the loss of most valuable time
and possibly interruption in the work
of hundreds of laborers who would
be stopped for lack of material caus-
ed by blocking the railroads.
1t is easy to understand from this
point of view why those in charge
of constructing the camp have de-
sired to hold off the coming of the
troops until their coming would not
result in seriously handicapping the
work of construction.
Those in command insisted on be-
ginning the departure from Penn
sylvania, and on Sunday afternoon
the first detachment arrived at Camp
Hancock-the First Pennsylvania
Field Hospital, under command of
Major Arthur P. Schaefer, and the
First Pennsylvania Ambulance Com
pany, commanded by Captain Will
liam ]. Sterrett, two hundred and
twenty-three men and officers, with
their full hospital and ambulance
equipment.
Following these there arrived on
Monday afternoon three full COM
panies, 164 men each with full COM
plement of officers, from Pottsville.
They left home Friday night, and
were the troops mentioned in the
Associated Press dispatch from Rich
mond as having raided the restau-
rants, at Danville. Explanation of
this incident is offered as follows:
The men were willing to pay fair
prices for what they got, and had
done so, many of them; but when the
clerks saw what a demand there
was, they began running up their
prices, and milk went from cents
a glass to 25 cents, and sandwiches
and other edibles were raced up in
the same way. Sometimes when a
reached out his hand for something
the price was increased from 10
cents to a quarter before he could
reach it. This made the men mad,
and they began helping themselves;
but If some took things without
paying for them others had already
paid enough to even things up"
Owing to the late hour, just be-
fore nightfall, at which the men
reached Camp Hancock, they spread
their blankets and slept in the new

Pay Your Bills Promptly!
It S a Patriotic Duty

G The welfare of the country depends upon sound
business. The sound conduct of business depends
upon ciculaton of money. And the constant cir
culation of money depends upon prompt payment
of bills
GNow, more than ever before, is your help needed
in this direction.
Producers of raw materials have cut down dis
counts and credit terms to the manufacturer -
the manufacturer to the obber the jobber to the
dealer - and the dealer must look to you for
cooperation.
q And upon the prompmess with which you pay
him, depends his prices to you. For if you delay
and he is obliged to borrow money to pay the job
ber for the things for which you owe him, his cost
of doing business is going to 60 up, and he will
have to get more for his goods to meet the in
creased expense
9 Of course you good for the bill you receive =
you have the money in the bank to pay it - and
you'll send check zone of these days. - but
that doesn't help the dealer.
q Get check off to him right away-keep the money
in circulation - do your bit toward sound bust
ness - help preserve the welfare of the country.
q And if you want to 60 a step further - arrange
for shorter credit periods = tell your dealer to
render bills every week or two weeks instead of
monthly.
q But above all else pay your bills promptly.
GIt's patriotic duty.

and consumed with a desire to live in
Paris. Yet here she is, married to Bo-
vary, an utterly obscure and uncouth little
country doctor.
"As he grew older his manner grew
heavier; at dessert he cut the corks Of
empty bottles; after eating he cleaned his
teeth with his tongue; in taking soup he
made a gurgling noise with every spoon
full; and, as he was getting fatter, the
puffed-out cheeks seemed to push the eyes,
always small, up to the temples"
This was the picture of her husband that
she imaged most frequently; and the more
she saw of him the greater became her
contempt; the more vividly the events of
the ball stood out in her mind; the stronger
grew her yearnings for Paris. She in
dulges in hours of speculation about it.
Thus:
what was this Paris like? What
a vague name! She repeated il in low voice
for the mere pleasure Of it; it rang in her
ears like great cathedral bell; il shone be-
fore her eyes, even on the labels of her po-
made pots.
"At night, when the carriers passed under
her windows in their carts singing the Mar
jolane,' she awoke, and listened to the noise
Of the ron-bound wheels, which, as they
gained the country road, was soon deadened
by the soil. They will be there tomorrow
she said to herself.
