true in the case of Mrs. Gottleib Dapp

her leg. This double stroke of i'll
luck occurred Saturday morning.
Mrs. Dapp had completed her mar
keting and placed the basket on a
stall for a few minutes rest. She
stepped to the front of another stall
four feet away. and was absent but a
minute. On her return she found the
basket gone. There We're a number
of persons about the stall where the
basket had been placed, but no one
was able to describe the person who
carried it away.
After she had made every effort to
find the lost basket and marketing,
Mrs. Dapp started across the street to
the business place of a son. She had
secured another baske tfrom him and
was returning to market when she
slipped on a banana skin. breaking
her leg. She was carried to the sons
place, and later taken home.

Going Over State Guard
Credits With Great Care

Revised figures of the credits to be
given the cities and counties of
Pennsylvania for enlistments in the
national guard were not furnished
to the draft boards to-day. but in
stead were gone over in the office
of Adjutant General Stewart with
the greatest core. Charges were
made by representatives of some
counties and districts in the last fort
night that the making of the credits
did not work out satisfactorily and
to-day there were rumors on Capitol
Hill that there were serious discrep-
ancies between the total of the
credits originally furnished and the
totals of the new list.
All information on the subject was
refused at the Capitol and officials
could not even be seen. Attempts
to get any information on enlist
ments in the national guard or in
the regular army from Pennsylvania
were rebuffcd and a general state of
nervous tension appeared to prevail.
N Done could be found who would
even predict when the new figures
would be available.
