very early, he can't get away. II

AS l undressed her and made her
ready for the night She prattled on
of her father. Her reticence was
slipping from her, now that she was
becoming accustomed to me.
Daddy has company whole lot
of times" she continued. Lots OF
gentlemen come here to dinner with
him quite often. Auntie says it's be-
cause he's lonely he asks them tC
come. There's good many nights he
goes out, too because people ask
him to take dinners and things in
their houses. You see, if l didn't

SENATE PASSES
PROBE MEASURE
Senator Ware Arouses Laugh
ter in the Course of His
Attack on Bill

The Sproul resolution for investiga-
ton of the government of Pennsylva-
MIA was passed by the Senate last
evening shortly before 6 O'Clock by
vote of % to 10 after it had been
denounced as unfair and praised as
something of great Importance to the
state. The largest crowd gathered in
the Senate chamber in years listened
10 debate for an hour and a half
and speculated on what the vote would
be. The strength claimed by the Pen
rose people practically materialized
and all but one of the Democrats voted
for the resolution.
Senator Burke, Allegheny. led off
with an attack on the resolution in the
course of which he asserted that it was
revenge for forcing through humani-
tartan legislation last session and then
Senator P. w. Snyder, Blair, assailed
the resolution and suggested confer
ence. of senators which did not take
very well. Senator Leiby then made
his maiden speech and grew eloquent
as he raped Republicans and express
ed the idea that while the Democrats
did not like the resolution they would
De Tor 1t rather than get nothing
senator ware then proceeded to de-
Iend the governor and in a speech
filled with humorous illusions and
honely expression paid his respects
TO the opponents of the Governor. He
SAID the Governor was the best in his
tlme, and that some of those throwing
stones at him were living in glass
houses. He raised a laugh when he
said that the Philadelphia row was
not the cause of the whole ruction
and when he declared the Quaker
city had good, decent, clean cleo
tions. After twitting his colleagues
he wound up by saying he was on the
right side even if his friend, Senator
Sproul, was not with him. Senator
Charles \. Snyder. Schuylkill. closed
the debate in speech in which he
turned the twitting from Ware and
said that the Governor had done some
thing unconventional, inopportune
and tactless in sending letter to the
Senate.
The vote on the Sproul resolution
was as follows:

storm-swept ship for four days and
survived tie low temperature, were
finally rescued.
Captain Stampe made repeated ef-
forts to reach the grounded ship with
tug, but was unable to get to it for
four days. He finally got close enough
to see that there were persons still
alive on the wreck, and then reached
the ship at great danger to himself
and his associates. The storm was
raging so hard that he was able only
TO save thirty persons on his first trip.
but made a second dash for the dere-
lict and rescued all the remaining
members of the crew and the pass
engers who were still alive.
The survivors were clinging to the
bridge, the only part of the ship
which was not submerged VIXEN the
Dutch officer reached it. One Jap
anese woman was among the rescued
passengers who had lived through
four days of exposure in a tempera-
ture never higher than fifteen degrees
above zero. Practically all the pass
engers and crew were Chinese and
Japanese. The Japanese captain of
the ship succumbed to exposure tie
second day after the wreck.

ANIMALS KILLED WHEN
AMMONIA FUMES ESCAPE

Escaping ammonia fumes from a
break in the refrigeration system of
the MIyer Gross, abattoir, Sayford and
Seventh streets, caused the death OF
six beeves and horse late last night.
Twenty pigs in the building were
driven to safety before they were
overcome.
An employe of the company going
home last night noticed the odor of
escaping ammonia several blocks
away. Suspecting the trouble he hur-
ried to the plant and broke open the
door. The horse and cattle were al
ready overcome by the death dealing
fumes The pigs seemed less suscep-
tible to the fumes and were driven
beyond the danger zone. 1t is believed
that freezing caused the pipe to burst.

Enormous Value in Cows of the
State
An increase of 4,S00 dairy COWS in
Pennsylvania during the past year is
shown by reports of the Bureau of
Statistics of the State Department of
Agriculture, which places the total on
January 1, 1917. at 956, 500, as COM
pared with $4,000 year ago.
The increasing prices that the
farmer is receiving for his milk has
somewhat overcome the general in
clination to withdraw from the dairy
ing business on account of the high
cost of feed. In many sections there
have been decreases of from to 3
per cent. in the number of dairy cat
tie, but 81 counties show increases,
some of them only 1 per cent.
The average price of dairy cattle in
creased during the year from $3.50 a
head to $3.50 and the total value of
dairy cows in the state is placed at

At one side of the large dining
room, over against tho wall, stood a
much smaller table than the one at
which we were seated. Mrs. Gore at

Grace and her attendant have al

planned to me. II take my breakfast

Figures collected by the State De-

there are now 46,250 mules in the

use of the automobile, the increasing
