WHERE SANTA WAS BORN
Russian Legend of Saint Klaus and
How He Came to Be Known as
the NChidren's Friend.

Very many years ago there lived in
Russia noblcman and his wife, who
had little son named Klaus. He was
such good boy that everyone used to
call him Saint Klaus. In course Of
time his parents died and left him a
large fortune, not the least part Of
which was three large bars of gold.
Sa.nt Klaus one day happened to be
passing Il house, and overheard a
father telling his daughters that he
had lost all his money, and that he
didn't even know how he was going
to buy food for them. This worried
Saint Klaus very much. and he Won
dercd how he could help them. So
that night he took one OF the bars Of
gold and threw it through the window.
The next night he threw the second
bar, and crcDt quietly away. but on
the third night when he was about to
throw the third bar the man who
had lost all his money came out and
caught him. lie tried to thank Saint
Klaus for his goodness to him and his
daughters, but Saint Klaus told him
to pay his thanks to God, whose sery-
ant he was.
And there. boys and girls, you have
the story of Saint Klaus Cor Santa
Claus rs we call him).

Dry Law Won't Hit Soft
Drinks, Wheeler Shows

Washington. June 24.-The atti-
tude of the Anti-Saloon League of
America with respects to prohibition
of the manufacture and sale of soft
drinks is explained by Wayne B.
Wheeler. general counsel. in view of
an apparent misinterpretation of
this attitude.
The proposed law enforcement
code tthe prohibition code)." Mt.
Wheeler says, will not interfere
with recognized soft drinks. All pro-
hibitory laws prohibit certain kinds
of liquors by name, which are
known to the trade as intoxicants.
This is done without reference 10
the alcoholic content. 1t is neces-
sary in order to prevent evasions
of the law. other alcoholic bev-
erages are prohibited if they have
in them fixed amount of alcohol.
The definition by the House ju-
dietary committee prohibits whisky.
gin. ale, porter. beer. etc, by name
and, in. addition. other alcoholic
liquors and compounds which are
ca pable of being used as bevera ge
if they contain one-half Of one per
cent OF alcohol by volume"

To take over the properties in
Hardscrabb bible on the west side of
North Front street, from Herr to
Calder streets. will cost the city at
least Si07,S74.7O. and possibly S14S,-
644.40 depending upon decisions in
casing now pending before the Dau-
phin county courts.
With the decision of the Supreme
court on saturday that in contested
awards of viewers ON the west side
of the street the city must pay for
all property built since 1871, S22. goo
was added TO the amount of the
damages sustained by the property
owners through condemnation pro-
ceedings. The total amount of dam
ages awarded for properties on the
west side of the street now is s14S,-
-644.40.
The city. however, brought actions
against property owners on the east
side of the street, to assess benefits
a againSt them because of the pro-
posed improvements which city off,
cials claimed would increase prop
erty values. The total amount of
the benefits which have been assess
ed or which We're allowed by juries
in contested cases is S41. .26s.70. If
the county court rules that the city
can collect this money. it is likely
property owners will appeal to the
supreme court. II the decision OF
the county court were affirmed il
would cut more than S4I.OOO from
the cost of taking over the proper
ties on the west side of the street
If the city cannot assess and collect
the benefits the cost will be more
than S14S.000 to take over prop

Harrisburg Firm Gives
New Foundland an Idea
of American Methods

A Harrisburg firm has had the
honor of introducing American
money raising plans in New Found
land. Mark q. Holtzman. repre-
senting the Hockenbury system, of
which E. ]. Hockenbury is presi-
dent and manager. returned to Hsr
risburg after a two months stay in
st. Johns. Newfoundland. where he
made a survey and built the organi-
Zation which raised a total of S243,-
900. The original goal was $50 900,
but this objective was reached in
two days, after which a new goal
of 100000 was set by the workers.
This was again exceeded by nearly
$4,000.
The same plan was used as the
American war drives and it was
revelation to the businessmen of St.
Johns. This was the first short
term campaign ever conducted in
New Foundland. The money was
raised for St Johns portion of the
Methodist (Wesleyan) College Res
idence. a new public school building
and an institutional building. The
campaign also had the effect of
merging the three funds into one.
The Anglican Church is now so
much encouraged as to put on a sim
liar campaign for at least a quarter
million dollars.
According to a further statement
made by Mr.. Hoffman, all educa-
ton is UNCONVENTIONAL in New
F'oundland. The largest denomina-
tions are the Methodists, the Angli-
cans or Church of England and
Roman Catholic. Active steps are
now being taken by the laymen
through their boards of education to
establish a semipublic school sys-
tenn.
Mr.. Hockenbury spent a week in
St Johns prior to the campaign and
personally conducted the drive.
June 9-16. He is now on a fishing
trip near Trepassy and. after at

will return to Harrisburg.
Mr. Hoffman saw several of the
aeroplanes leave for their trans
Atlantic fight. He also saw the
American dirigible land near st.
Johns. He returned by steamship
and came through fields of icebergs
and saw several whale spouting in
the Atlantic.

HUN OFFICERS
SHOT THEIR MEN
Killed Them When They Tried
to Shut Seacocks on
Ships
BIZ Associated Press.

Thurso, Scotland. June 24.-Ger-
man sailors were shot by their own
officers when they attempted to obey
the commands of the British officers
to return to their ships and shut the
seacocks This statement was
made by Lieutenant Nuttar. of the
steamer Alouette, who reached here
to-day from Scarpa Flow. where the
German ships were sunk.
Il pulled along side German de-
stroyer when l saw the ship begin
to settle" said Lieutenant INITIAL.
''and ordered the Germans back to
close the seacocks. Four or five of
them turned back. whereup the
German officers shot three Of them
dead. We then opened fire on the
officers and several of them dropped.
Others among the Germans then
returned and closed the seacocks.
The Germans were also driven back
to four or five other destroyers; they
closed the seacocks in time to keep
the vessels afioat"
Lieutenant Nuttall reports that the
Emden has been pumped out and ~
now affoat. The Badens crew was
forced back to that vessel and COM
PEELED to shut the seacocks.
Directly the first red flag and Ger
man ensign were hoisted on the first
battleship." he added The German
admiral put off in a motorboat post
haste to the British air station
ashore.
He stated the ships were sinking
and requested assistance for the
crews. He was arrested.
Naval men believe the trip was a
ruse to lead to the belief that the
crews were taking charge of the
ships. This was not substantiated
by what actually happened"
