day the department received a long
despatch from Ambassador Francis ask
ing authority 10 recognize formally
the new government. The ambassador
pointed out that the new Russia was
founded on the same principles which
had inspired the trainers of the Ameri-
can republic and that its leaders stood
for all that this country held sacred.
The revolution, he said, had been en-
tircly successful and good order pre-
vailed everywhere.
| The ambassador particularly suggest
ed that the United States should be the
first nation to welcome the new Russian
government into the family of nations.
He recalled America s policy to do ev-
Ierything in its power for the extension
of republican principles and spoke most
highly of q movement which in less than
4 q week had given the most autocratic
country in the world o modern govern
ment.
i Officials at Washington echoed this
feeling and were especially enthusiastic
about the personnel of the new govern
ment. whose members were known to be
not only highly patriotic and liberal
minded, but also highly efficient to meet
the colossal task before them. There
were indications, however, that for the
present, particularly because news of
the arrest of the former emperor and
empress created apprehension among
some high officials, the United States
would content itself with extending de
facto recognition.
America S action is expected to en-
courage the men controlling the new
government. Russia s allies also are
planning prompt recognition. British
Ambassador Buchanan is empowered to
recognize the new government formally
Just as soon as Italy and France so
instruct their ambassadors at Petro-
grad.
New credentials will be sent to Am
bassador Francis soon, as until now he
has been personally accredited to En-
peror Nicholas. Likewise Ambassador
Bakmeteff in Washington will receive
7 new credentials az representing, not the
emperor, but the Russian government,
If the change in government does not
result in changes in diplomatic serv-
lee.
Dispatches received from Petrograd
yesterday indicate that good order still
is continuing and that further i'm
portant factions, individuals and prov
inces have gone over to the new gov
eminent. Apparently outlying sections
that were in doubt as to what to do
have decided TO cast their lot with the
revolution, so that every day sees il
nearing completion. Mention of Social
ist or workingmen 5 opposition is de
creasing and il is thought that an agree
ment has been reached TO remove at
least the minor differences and unite the
country under the new government.
Army officials at Washington init
mate that 50 far as the Russian army is
concerned the overthrow of the govern
mcnt cannot but cause some confusion
though dispatches indicate that it has
been remarkably small. Fortunately foi
the new leaders this is a time of rains
and swollen streams along virtually the
whole Russian front, and il will not be
possible for Germany to take great adj
vantage OF any Russian confusion fol
al least another month. Consequently il
is believed there will be adequate time
to effect a new control.

 OARKENS GRAY HAIR
Brush this through faded, IfeIess locks and they become dark,

Hair that loses it's color and lustre or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful. and thousands of women and men who value that even color hat beautiful dark shade of hail which Is so attractive, use only this old time recipe.
 Nowadays we get this famous mix. (ure by asking at any drug store foI 1 50 cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" which dark ms the hair so na turally, so evenly

MODEL SERVICE STATION OPENS

What is undoubtedly the most up-to date and complete auto service station in Phoenix will be opened today ac- cording to the announcement of the owner, Walter M. Davis.
 The station, the first of six to be built in Phoenix, is located at the northeast corner of Taylor street and Central avenue. and is the first station of it's kind to be built in Phoenix. The need of such stations, so complete and convenient has long been felt by To- cal motorists. and this fact assures success to the man who has had the enterprise to build such an establish ment on elaborate plans.
 The building itself is a feature, where the dusty and tired motorists coming from out of town may stop and enjoy the wash-room facilities of a hotel, without the feeling of obligation that comes from imposing on hotels for such service. This service station has a woman's rest room, with facilities that offer every convenience that one could ask-other than a bath.
 It is the purpose of MT. Davis to carry a line of accessories along with his stock of oils, grease, and gasoline. For accommodating the needs of the motorists in the quickest possible time, there has been installed q giant Gill; bert and Barker automatic gasoline pump, that will throw five gallons of gas at a Stroke. There are facilities for free air and water, and in connection with this service, Mir Davis states that there will be no tips expected; on the contrary, any employe accepting a tip will be discharged. according to the owner The station will use Standard Oil products.
 "L want the autoist to feel perfectly free to come here for aid and water O: to have his tires tested. whether he buys or not" said MT. Davis. If he has come in from the country after q drive and has no place to stop, he is invited to stop here and brush up be- fore he goes about his business in the city. Service is our motto, and ser vice we intend to give"
 Mir Davis is a man who is well known in Phoenix, and at various times was superintendent of streets in Kan sas City, and chief of police in Pueblo Colo.

Harrisburg Woman Alleges
Brother Is Short 100000
in Estate Administration

In Orphan court at Pottsville yes
terday, Mrs. Charles Kirby, 100
Green street, this city, was one OF
two petitioners who requested that
Charles Kaier, of Philadelphia, son OF
the G. ID. Kaier, millionaire brewer OF
Mahanoy City, be removed as executor
of the estate. Judge Wilhelm heard
the argument for the petitioners.
Mrs. Kirby and another sister, al
lege that Charles, their brother, re-
sides in Philadelphia, and has neglect
ed his duties in attending to the es-
tate. The brother is also charged with
Wasteful management and it is alleged
that his actions have not been accord
ing to the provisions of the will, and
that he is in error in his accounts to
tho extent of 100000.
1t was proposed to sell the property
but Court blocked this proposition to-
day, when the request was presented
for the ousting of Charles as executor
Attorneys say that if young Kaier does
not retire as executor they will show
the court good reasons why he should
be dismissed.
AS an acquaintance of Grace Rob-
erts, the murdered corset model, OF
Philadelphia, Kaier acquired consider
able notoriety several months ago
particularly after it was shown that
the young woman had been a visitor
to this county, but Kaier has persis-
tently denied any knowledge of the
manner in which she met her death
and no evidence has been found to
contradict him.

NO DANGER OF
IMMEDIATE FLOOD
COMMISSION SAYS
Will Take Heavy Rain or
Much Warmer Weather
TO Start Ice

There is no immediate danger OF
Susquehanna flood" Ralph Hos
mer, of the State Water Supply
Commission declared this morning.
Conditions along the watershed re-
main practically the same, with the
exception of local ice movements.
UNLESS much warmer weather ar
rives or there is a heavy rainfall, the
river will not cause any damage
soon.'
The river at this point closed carly
this morning. Slush filled the river
from bank to bank before it jammed
up. The river is not closed above
Rockville nor below the dam. A river
stage of 10.9 feet is reported at EIar-
risburg with slight possibilities of q
change.
Slightly warmer is promised by Z.
r. Demain, forecaster for tonight
but the slightly" is only matter of
two degrees. The lowest tempera-
ture reached last night was Is degrees
above zero and the prospect for to-
night is 20 above.
Moderate variable winds are OK
pected to watt clear weather for
Wednesday.
The freeze last night halted the
thaw and prevented much more wa
ter draining into the stream. At
Highspire and Middletown where
conditions were growing dangerous
because of backwater, the water is
receding to-day.
