Regular drills will be held Mon
day, Tuesday. Thursday and Friday

les so that the recruits will get pre-
iminary training. Other cities and

lar campaigns to fill the ranks al
once and it is believed that the en-
tire regiment will be at war strength

Shot After He Attacks
and Robs 80-Year-Old Man

Attacking and brutally beating
Thomas A. Woods. more than eighty
years of age. a negro who gave his
name as James Jones. narrowly es-
capped with his life when an enraged
mob, hearing the old mans cries for
help, chased his assailant over the
city streets. finally capturing him
after Robert Null, an officer of the
Harrisburg Pipe and Pipe Bending
Works, shot the negro in the hip.
The attack on Mr.. Woods was
made in a small house in Sarah
street. near the rear of the Messiah
Lutheran Church. Ii was reported to
the police that Jones took about $40
from the old man, and when search
ed az the Harrisburg Hospital S35
was found on the negro.
When the cries for help were
heard a crowd gathered at once and
started after the fleeing colored man.
The chase led down Forster and
Cowden streets, across the railroad.
Two officers of the Pipe Bending
plant fired at Jones, one shot pene-
trating the negro's hip. Even when

lnsular Affairs of the War Depart
ment and later became United States
District Judge for Porto Rico. which
post he held until 1912. when he re-
sumed the practice of law at San
Juan.
In the long legal battle which fol-
lowed the killing of Mrs. Porter
Charlton, Judge Charlton worked in
defatigably to save his son, who had
been arrested on his return to the
United States. from being extradited
to Italy for trial. He lost his fight,
however, and in the fall of 1913
Porter Charlton was sent back from
New York in the custody of an agent
of the Italian government
After many postponements his
trial began in October. 1915, and
ended eight days later with a ver-
dict of guilty. Charlton was sem
fenced to six years and eight months
Imprisonment, but owing to the fact
that he had been under arrest for
more than five years and the King
of Italy by royal decree mad taken
one year off his sentence, Charlton
actually served only twenty-nine
days.

Train 10000 Men For
Officers of Merchantmen

Washington, d. c., June A
campaign to recruit and train TO- 900
men to officer the ships of the new
American merchant marine was an
nounced to-day by the Federal Ship
ping Board and the Department of
Commerce. Henry Howard, of Bos-
ton, has been appointed director,
with offices in the Boston customs
house.
The first nautical training school
under government direction was
opened to-day near Boston. Fourteen
similar schools will be established
along the Atlantic coast and later
the training system may be extended
10 the Pacific cost and Great Lakes.
Applicants may be of any age, but
must be in good physical condition.
Previous nautical experience is de-
sirable and men will be paid "rea-
sonable compensation" during train
ing, which probably Will last two
months. Graduates must be exam
lned and licensed by the Commerce
Department steamboat inspection di-
vision, which is now considering GER

Officers

Fort Niagara. \. V. June s.
Fort Niagara will be abandoned as n
training camp for the officers re-
serve corps when the present class
completes its training about August
27, according to Colonel Miller, fol-
lowing orders received to-day from
the War Department. The chief rea-
son for this decision, ii is believed,
IS the weather conditions, which
would compel the second group of
officers to take their final training
in snow. The second class will be
called August % and end Novem-
Der 20
Then. too. it was pointed out by
the staff officers, it will be more
practical to have the men close to
the larger mobilization camps, where
they might get some experience in
the command of the troops which
are to be mobilized. The big camp
at Fort Oglethorpe, Ga, will care
for the men from this section. Sew
eral of the regular army officers who
were detailed here when the camp
opened have been transferred to
Oglethorpe. These included Captain
Parse, of the medical corps.

POLITICAL SPEECH
.HAUNTS LEWIS
Harding Has Illinois Mans
Campaign Address Put
in Senate Record

Washington, June 8. - Senator
Lewis, of Illinois, campaigning prior
to the recent special congressional
election in New Hampshire, charged
that Il vote cast for the Republican
candidate would be accepted as a
vote to dishonor the president and
defeat America.
This speech was brought to the at
tention of the Senate by Senator
Harding, of Ohio. who asked that the
Lewis speech be printed in the rec
ord.
Inasmuch as the Republican and
not the Democratic candidate was
elected in New Hampshire. Senator
Harding said the suggestion nav by
Senator Lewis in the campaign. aside
from being entirely without justifica-
ton, would have the effect now OF
placing the people of that State in a
pecliar light ii the senator's state
ment were permitted to so unchal-
lenged.
The portion o fthe Lewis speech to
be printed in the record SAYS: "Or
Will the district select a gentleman OF
whom it could be said he was an OPP
ponent of the policies of the presi-
dent, and of whom thereafter
throughout the world it will be said
was elected upon the issue of dis
honoring the president and defeat
ing America"
After the administration" said
Senator Harding, has been so cor
daily and so effectively supported in
both branches of congress by mem
bers without regard to party affilia-
tions, the answer of the people of the
first district of New Hampshire after
this succinct statement of the SEN
ator from Illinois is rather a misfor-
tune than a matter of congratula-
ton"

Catarrhal Deafness
May Be Overcome
A simple, safe and reliable way
that calls for no ugly trum-
pets, phones or other
instruments

To be deaf is very annoying and
embarrassing. People who are deaf
are generally mighty sensitive on this
subject. And yet many deaf folks
carry around instruments that call at
tention to their infirmity. Therefore
people who are hard of hearing, who
suffer from head noises, or who are
actually deaf from catarrhal trouble,
will be glad to know of a simple
recipe that can be easily made up at
home for a few cents cost that is
really quite efficient in relieving the
disagreeable deafness and head noises
caused by catarrh.
From any drug store get one ounce
OF Parmint double strength) about
75c worth. Take this home and put
1t into a simple syrup made of Il pint
of hot water and four ounces of ordf-
nary granulated sugar. Take a
tablespoonful four times a day.
This treatment should by tonic ac-
tion reduce the Inflammation in the
middle ear that a catarrhal condition
would be likely to cause and with the
Inflammation gone the distressing
head noises, headaches, cloudy think
ing and that dull feeling in the ears
should gradually disappear. Anyone
who suffers from catarrh, catarrhal
deafness or head noises should give
Parmint a trial. It is pleasant to
take and is quite inexpensive.-Adver
