OFFENDERS MUST
SUFFER PENALTY
FOR WRONGDOING
JudgeKunkel Scores Attempts
to Evade Punishment
For Grimes

There are too many attempts be-
Ing made to get away from the con-
sequences of crime" President Judge
George Kunkei said to-day, when
Christ Hofsess, convicted of receiv-
ing stolen goods, was called for sem
tence to-day, and counsel for the de-
fendant asked for a suspension of
punishment.
Even the laws that are passed
now relieve the violator from seri-
Gus consequences. 1t is contrary to
the law of nature and contrary to
divine law not to have man suffer
for wrongdoing. The best reforma-
ton for such persons is to have them
suffer the consequences. They Will
remember it and won't be so anxious
to break the law again. 1t is no
inventive to keep from crime if
there is no punishment"
Counsel then stated he intended
to call an employer to testify in ia
vor of Hofsess, and also called the
attention of the court to the inability
of Hofsess' wife to work and sup
port herself. Judge Kunkel asked
if the employer would be willing to
contribute to the family, but the
attorney could not answer the ques-
ton. The court finally directed
Hofsess to enter bail for appearance
at March sessions.
The grand jury to-day faced one
of the biggest lists in recent years,
the district attorneys office sending
sixty bills of indictment before the
jurors. OF this number thirty
seven were returned as true bills be-
fore noon adjournment and none was
ignored. In the cases against M. b.
Hughes and NJ. r. Craven, charged
with false pretenses on a fake stock
selling scheme. the grand jury re-
turned indictments to the court.

There is no excuse today for

For a few cents you can get a

Apply few drops of this freezone
upon tender, aching corn or callus
and instantly, yes, Immediately. all

Just think! Not one bit of pain

Hard corns. soft corns or corns

Wall Street Sentiment
FaUors Payment of Men
During Enforced Idleness
BY Associated Press

New York, Jan. 1S.-New York to-
day entered upon the five-day period
of industrial suspension somewhat
bewildered because of lack of au-
thoritative information concerning
details of the operation of the coal
conservation orders but determined
to accept patriotically whatever
hardships may come.
Local fuel administrators deluged
by thousands of inquiries, were un-
able to make definite interpretations
of countless angles of the problem
and much confusion resulted. Not
the least of the problems was that
of enforcing the orders. Albert II.
Wiggin, state administrator, admit
ted he was not sure who would see
that the orders were obeyed. He de-
clared that the success of the plan
rested largely on the conscience" of
the people, and he was confident
there woul dbe very little trouble in
carrying out orders.
Criticism Lessons
While merchants associations and
industrial organizations Joined in a
mighty chorus of protest before the
order actually was promulgated at
Washington, there was a noticeable
absence of criticism when the decree
became effective.
Labor leaders, while deploring the
orders asserted their loyalty to the
government and made arrangements
to raise funds for the relief of those
thrown out of work. A million work.
ers will lose $10,000,000 during the
period in New York City alone, ac-
cording to some of the estimates. The
needle trades, as a class Will suffer
most from the shutdown, it was said,
it being estimated that fully 100000
women and girls are employed in
this work. Others affected, according
to labor figures, are 10000 corpen-
ters, $4,000 workers in the garment
trades, 1900 machinists, 10000 ci-
garmakers, 10000 clerks and 1000
brewery workers.
In Wall Street sentiment was said
to be strong in some quarters for
paying the employees laid off by the
shutdown. The attitude of leading
bankers and industrial leaders was
that of standing by the government
without question. Men whose person.
al losses will be great, justified the
governments action and urged that
every sacrifice be made to carry out
the military needs of the country.
Warnings have been issued by the
National Board of Fire Underwriters
to all owners and managers OF build
ings in the city of the increase in the
fire hazard caused by lack of coal in
keeping the sprinkling plants in
operation.

$780, 900 Workers Are
Affected by FiUe-Day
Shutdown in Chicago
By associated Press

Chicago, Jan. 1S.-More than one
billion dollars in capital and some
100000 workers are idle to-day in the
Chicago district as a result of the
conservation order of the Federal
fuel administration. according to fig
ures compiled by commercial bodies

The estimated loss of wages by
workers in the district during, the
enforced idleness for the five-day
period beginning to-day and the nine
successive Mondays is $17,000,O00.
Businessmen and manufacturers

spirit as well as the letter of the
order.
Heads of a number of factories
where the piecework system prevails

employees when not at work.
Managers of the downtown play
houses have decided to close their
doors on Monday rather than try to
run a show with the house cold.

MAJESTIC BILL.
Is PLEASING
Musical Comedy and Good
Skit Feature Vaude-
vile Program

The musical comedy and the
sketch Live Wires" are the two best
offerings on the Majestic bill. While
the latter is not new and has been
seen before by many theatergoers
it Is original enough to be entertain
ing.
The Mitzuma Japs start with some
line balancing feats, the kind of an
act that seems to be about the best
for an opener in Harrisburg. Wheeler
and Moran, in bits of variety, as they
nave been listed, fill the part, but
there is so much variety that the
audience doesn't get an opportunity
to enjoy much of their entertaining
except the dancing.
Live Wires" is playlet in which
the big brother of a telephone opera
tor gets in trouble with the police,
and another man who takes a fancy
to the operator helps big brother"
escape. This is a bright slit with
plenty of action and witty lines.
Ward, Wilson and Janese, in comedy
patter, songs and dances are a fair
trio. but there have been better ones
at the Majestic.
The musical comedy offering is
billed as 'Hilda's Ankle" and is pre-
sented by a good company. There
isn't much rrhyme or reason to the
comedy end of the act, but the nom
sensical talk of the comedian, who
takes the part of a hospital attendant
pleased the audience last night. The
musical numbers are varied and
there probably could have been sew
eral encores but the audience missed
an opportunity to enjoy these by not
responding with enough applause.
