u. S. Not to Take Plants
Nor to Give Commissions

Officials at the local recruiting sta
ton to-day said that they know of
no arrangements being made by the
government to take over the indus
trial concerns of Harrisburg and
place them under martial law as had
been reported. Lieutenant Lesher
said the erroneous report which ap-
peared in a newspaper was simply a
misstatement of the term induction"
which he had explained.
1t is possible, he said, for the re-
cruiting officer to take any man
within the draft age limit. and order
him into the United States Army in
the special service at which he is
efficient in civil life. A man drafted
into the Army this way is enlisted as
private, but his pay is rated COM
mensurate with his pay at the same
work as a civilian. 1t is not neces-
sary to wait until the man has been
called by the draft board to induct
him into the service.
Lieutenant Lesher said that the
story that the factories would be put
on a war basis, and all the men in
Quoted and graded with military
rank according to their position be-
fore the induction was not a state
ment of what is being done, but
simply an outline of what could be
done in case of necessity.

Brother of Harrisburg
Man Brought Home With
Back Broken in Atlantic

George Shillen, steward of the
local Moose Home and his sister,
who resides at Lancaster, Monday
night placed their brother, Paul
Clifford Shillen in the Bellevue Hos
pital, New York City. Shillen had
oeen in a hospital at Boston for two
weeks, suffering with broken back,
uh !! lie ELsta. II f.,n IS ago
when he fell through n natch hoie
on a coal boat on which he was
working as a seaman. Shillen sailed
last March from Norfolk, Virginia,
for Genoa, and on the voyage step
ped on a loose board which gave
way, preclpitating him through the
coal hatch to the coal deck below, a
fall of eighteen feet. His back was
broken below the waist, and he is
paralyzed from his hips down. He
lay in a hospital at Genoa for seven
months, without letting his people
mere know how badly he was hurt.
He has retained his good spirits, and
is perfectly cheerful and resigned to
his fate. He sailed month ago
from MADEIRA and landed in Boston.

SAGE TEA TURNS
GRAY HAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Bring Back Color and
Lustre to Hair g..

That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing n mixture of Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Your hair is your charm. 1t
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked, lust an
application or two of Sage and Sui
phur enhances its appearance a hun
dredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture; you can get his famous old re-
cipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients at small cost.
all ready to use. 1t is called
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur COM
poundr This can always be depend
ed upon to bring back the natural
color and luster of your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage
and Sulphur Compound now because
it darkens so naturally and evenly
that nobody can tell it has been ap-
piled. You simply dampen q sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through the hair, taking one small
strand at a. time; by morning the
gray hair has disappeared, and af-
ter another application it becomes
beautifully dark and appears glossy
and lustrous. This ready-to-use pre-
paration is a delightful toilet requi-
site for those who desire dark hair
and youthful appearance. 1t is not
intended for the cure, mitigation or
prevention of disease.-Adv.

Officers Elected at Annual
Meeting of Association
For Colored People

The Harrisburg branch of the Ma
tlonal Association for the Advance
ment of Colored eople held it's an
nual meeting last night in the Bethel
A. NJ. Il. Church. The meeting was
largely attended as the reports of
the various officers for the year were
made, which showed a growth OF the
local branch and its activity In per-
forming the mission for which 1t was
organized, namely. TO forward the
general civic uplift of the colored
people and to conserve their rights.
Special interest was manifested IN
this meeting owing to tho recent de-
cision of the United States Supreme
Court multiplying the laws in several
of the southern cities prescribing
certain sections in which the coll
OF ed people should live.
The following officers were elected
for the ensuing year: President, @.
sylvester Jackson vice-president.
Marshall Ficklin; secretary, Robert
j, Nelson, treasurer, James M Auter;
members of the executive COMMITTEES
w, Justin Carter. the Rev, b. M.
Ward, George Potts, Charles F, How
ard, OF Steelton; Rufus j, McCree.
Plans are now being formulated TO
make an aggressive campaign to In

FIRE BUDGET IS
HARD PROBLEM
Change From Horse-Drawn
5 TO Auto Apparatus Makes
Estimates Uncertain

In preparing the budget for the
fire department for next year Com
missioner E. z. Gross, Superinten-
dent of the Fire and Park Depart
ments. will have probably the most
difficult problem of any of the COM
missioners.
Since last December when the
1917 budget was prepared the entire
Fire Department has been motorized
and there are no horses to be cared
for at any of the fire company
houses This will mean a reduc-
ton in maintenance cost, Commis-
sioner Gross believes, but the prob
lem confronting him is to estimate
just how much money will be need

salaries for drivers, funds for re-
pairs and feed for horses. For this
year this sum was increased to S45,-
159, but $4,000 was used to pur-
chase hose, $1,000 to repair the
Washington Fire Company house;
$3.50 to purchase hose driers and the
remainder for salary increases.
While it had not been decided def
nitely, 1t is understood there may be
additional mprovements in the de-
partment next year to increase fire
protection in the outlying districts.

Appeals From Draft

peals, thousands of which have been
poured into the headquarters, and
which the statement says are forcing

and the prior disposition of the case
adhered to.
Certain cases may be re-opened
only in event that claim is filed by
November 23 and where permission
is granted by the adjutant general
before induction into military serv-
ice.
The statement says that the great
number of appeals to the president
suggest that there must still be many
pending and 1t is recommended that
the services of lawyers who may
volunteer the duty of investigating
cases will help dispose of them.
There is urgent necessity to bring
the first draft to a close as promptly
as possible" says the statement by
General Crowder. Reports from
mobilization camps indicate that
there is a considerable discrepancy
between the percentage of the quotas
thus far called and the number of
men who have actually been fur
nished to the camps"

O'NEIL GOES TO
MEET OFFICIALS
Commissioners of Various
Counties Ask Him to Look
Over Highway Work

Highway Commissioner ]. Denny
O'Neil and Chief Engineer william
D. Uhler started this morning on a
three-day automobile trip, which will
extend through Lebanon, Berks, Lee
high, Northampton, Monroe, Lacka-
wanna, Luzerne, Columbia, Montour
and northumberland counties. They
will meet, by appointment. with the
county commissioners at the various
courthouses, for the purpose of max
ing an inspection of the roads in
which the commissioners are inter
ested, and, at the same time, will
make an inspection of the improved
roads in order to ascertain just
which ones will have to be repaired
next year and also to ascertain
whether or not local material can be
secured for this purpose. Commis-
sioner O'Neil is of the opinion that
it will be a mistake not to maintain
roads which are already built.
On account of the embargo on
freight cars for carrying road ma
terials, Commissioner O'Neil has ar
ranged for a series of conferences
with county commissioners in order
to determine if a program could not
be worked out for next year, whore
by certain roads can he construct
ed on a cooperative basis-the coun-
ty and the state each paying half of
the cost.
Commissioner O'Neil is of the
opinion that there are certain roads
in some of the counties that are I'M
portant enough to justify their build
ing, provided local material can be
secured at a fair price. Commission
er O'Neil will visit other counties
throughout the state for this pur-
pose before New Years Day.
Commissioner O'Neil has rejected
all of the bids received on Novem-
Der for road work which had been
contemplated for Allegheny and So
merset counties, for the reason that
the prices were considered so high
that the department did not feel war
ranted in awarding contracts. All
of this work will be readvertised in
the near future.
The section of roadway in Allie
gheny county extended from point
north of Perrysville to a point about
a half mile north of Pine Creek
Crossing, through Ross and Nc
Candless townships, a distance of 21,-
426 feet, or nearly four miles. Bids
were asked for either reinforced con-
crete or bituminous construction.
The stretch of road in Somerset
county on which only two bids were
received for either bituminous con-
crete or reinforced concrete con-
struction, is over seven miles long,
and extends through Lincoln and
Jenner township and Jennertown
borough, on state highway route 269.

Reign Of DespOtism at
an End, Says Father HeaIy

With a good word for that mighty
conqueror, Napoleon Bonaparte, and
giving the French Revolution credit
for starting the modern world on the
run for democracy, the Rev. Father
Patrick J. Healy predicted to a large
audience in the Cathedral Hall, last
night, that despotism is doomed and
democracy bound to pervade the
whole civilized world.
Tracing a narrative of the feudal
system, the magma charta, and reach
ing the French Revolution, Father
Healy rated Napoleon highly, as a
really magnificent character, who
overthrew the autocratic power in
France"
In declaring that democracy is fast
spreading to all countries where there
is European influence. he said:
To-day as the result of the social
revolution inaugurated on the French
revolution, representative forms of
government are found wherever there
are Europeans, The ideas which were
expressed in the declaration of rights,
ideas spelling the doom of despotism,
have found Judgement in every quar-
ter of the globe. One by one the ma
tions subject to European influences
have developed forms of democracy,
and in those various forms can be
traced the story of the struggles and
the strivings of a hundred years"
