to $2l, 900 For the Year;
Plan NoOn-hour Recitals

Authorization of $4,000 as next
years budget and election of Will
liam NJ. Donaldson as a member of
the board were the outstanding fea-
lures of the monthly luncheon of the
board of directors of the Central Y.
NJ. c. A. held at the association
building. Second and Locust streets,
to-day. The new budget is an i'm
crease of $4,000 over last years

year beginning February I.
Fifty new lockers will be pur-
chased for the use of businessmen
in the lockerroom. A new cash reg
lister and a private branch telephone
exchange will be installed.
Preliminary to the opening of
noon-hour organ recitals in Fahne-
stock Hall, the pipe organ will be
repaired and made ready for use
The idea of noon-hour recitals was
that of the late Prof. Edwin ]. Dece-
wee, a prominent local musician. A
clock and new piano will be
placed in the gymnasium. The piano
will be used in accompaniment to
the calisthenic drills of the gym
nasium classes.

Estate of Miss Jane Long
Left to Pastor of Church
She Attended For Years

The bulk OF the estate of Miss
Jane Long, 210 Herr street, has been
bequeathed to the Rev. William n.
Yates, pastor of the Fourth Street
Church of God. This bequest is con-
tanned in Miss Longs will, which
makes Clarence NJ. Sigler, head Of
the Sigler Music House, executor of
the estate. Several minor bequests
are mentioned for friends of Miss
Long. and the remainder of the es-
tate. amounting to about $4,000. is
given to the Rev. DR.. Yates. While
no official statement was made by
the executor or by Dr. Yates, it is
understood that the large bequest
will be given to the Fourth Street
Church of God.
Miss Long died several days ago.
She was a dressmaker, working for
many of the city's prominent women.
She was an untiring worker at the
Fourth Street Church of God. In
thirty-six years she missed but one
session of the Sunday school of that
church. That time was three weeks
ago and the Sunday school sent her
n bunch of thirty-siX beautiful roses.
1t is related that some time ago
Miss Long fell, breaking her arm.
1t was thought that she could not
get TO Sunday school and Clarence
NJ. Sigler. superintendent of the
school. sent a cab to bring her to the
meeting. This was done several
times when she was physically dis
abled.

Insane Asylum Appeals
to City For Adequate
Protection From Fire

Fire Chief John c. Kinder and
City Commissioner L. Y. Gross, su-
perintendent of the fire and park de-
partments. have been asked by Off
cials in charge at the Pennsylvania
State Lunatic Hospital. Cameron and
Maclay streets, whether the city will
furnish fire service in case of emer-
genCy there.
In addition to promising city serv-
ice in case of fire, the officials to-
day made an investigation at the
hospital grounds and will probably
make a number of recommendations
for improvements there in order tc
increase protection against any blaze
which might start.
Increased water pressure. better
means of communication between
buildings, installation of outdoor
plugs and also an alarm box con.
nected with the city lines will prob.
ably be among the improvements
suggested. An ordinance will likely
be introduced in Council soon per-
mitting the connection Of an alarm
box to the city system. as the hos
pital is outside the city limits.

S. P. c. A. Asks Authority
to Kill Humanely All
Dogs Doomed by Law

Representatives of the Harrisburg
S. p. c. A. to-day conferred with the
County Commissioners offering to
take charge of the killing of dogs in
the city as required by the law passed
last year.
The commissioners explained they
had no authority to deputize the So
ciety to do the work, but approved
the plan and suggested to the mem
bers that they consult police officials
in Harrisburg, Steelton and nearby
towns, getting their authority to
take all unlicensed dogs to a pound
and kill them.
Efforts will be made to secure the
pound used by the city under the
old law directing employment of a
dog catcher. AS soon as definite ar
rangements are made the committee
will report again to the Commits
sioners.
A number of defects in the new
law were pointed out. One of these
is that the act makes no provision
for disposal of the body of dog
which has been shot. Heretofore the
officer who reported he had shot a
canine was required to see that it
was properly disposed of before he
could collect a fee.

Market Square Pavements
Washed With Soft Drinks

Several gallons of soft drinks
washed the brick pavements in front
of the Senate Hotel this morning,
when the heavy delivery wagon of
the Keystone Bottling Works was
upset by the horse and more than a
dozen cases of drinks were strewn
upon the pavement.
S, I'll. Rivin. sol Boas street, the
driver, was backing the horse to the
curb in order to unload his consign-
ment. The horse became frightened
and reared and backedt while the
wagon was turned at right angles, to
the shafts. The wagon upset on the
pavement, and the driver jumped to
safety just in time to avoid being
thrown under it. This is the third
time the horse has caused similar
accident by becoming frightened,
Rivin said.

CONSERVATORES
ARE TO GO FROM
CAPITOL PARK
Old Greenhouses Do Not Fit
Into New Landscape
Scheme
NO MORE FLOWER BEDS
Conference With City Off
cials on Extension Plans
Is Scheduled

State conservatories in Capito
Park which date from the eighties
and which have been visited by thou
sands of people and men active II
public life in pennsylvania have
been ordered removed from the parE
not fit into the plans being made
for general improvement of the park
and its extension and when they are
removed there will also be a change
in the floral arrangements of the
park. The flower beds will be aban-
doned and in their place will be
planted Pennsylvania native shrub
berry.
THE Board of Public Grounds and
Buildings has decided to close the
conservatories and to demolish the
buildings. We will close them June
l." said superintendent George A.
Shreiner to-day. They have cost
the state $4,000 year and we can
save that money and also what we
spend on the flower beds which are
covered with blooms for only a week
or so. The idea is to plant shrub
berry. No beds will be set out this
year, but when the bulb plants stop
blooming we will have ornamental
shrubbery put in their places"
Arnold w. Drummer, the noted
architect in charge of plants for
Capitol Park improvements, will be
here next week with detailed draw
ings for consideration of the board.
A conference with city officials will
then be arranged.

New York. March 13.-Captain
Archibald B. Roosevelt. a son of
Theodore Roosevelt. has been wound
ed in action with the American
forces in France, says cablegram
received to-day at the Colonel's Of
flee here.
The message came from Theodore
Roosevelt. Jr., a major with the
American expeditionary troops. 1t
reads
Archie wounded by shrapnel
slightly in leg. Arm broken, but not
badly. No danger"
'I am as proud of my four boys
as | can be- Colonel Roosevelt said
when informed by his secretary, Miss
Josephine Stryker, over the tele-
phone at his home in oyster Bay,
where the former President is re-
cuperating from his recent illness.
LAS long as Archie was not killed,
everything is all right"
Earlier in the day the Colonel had
received unofficial information that
a French general had decorated
"Achie" with the Cross of War for
gallantry in action. The Colonel said
he associated the receipt of the cross
with this exploit.
