OPEN CAMPAIGN
AT BIG RALLY
Harrisburg Republican Club
Gives Reception to City
and County Candidates
GREAT VICTORY IN SIGHT
But Bright Prospects Will Not
Dampen Ardor of Workers
Planning For Next Year

At the largest meeting in years,
members of the Harrisburg Repub-
lican Club last evening gave their
hearty endorsement to the city and
county tickets nominated in Sep
tember and heard leaders of the
party in the State forecast great Re-
publican victories this year and in
the presidential contest of 1920.
This is. no off year." said EN-
erson Collins, one of the speakers.
What we do this year will be a
sign and indication of what will hap
pen next year. A united victorious
Republican party in the local cleo
tions throughout the country in No
vember will discourage the Demo-
Gratis, hearten timid Republicans and
give notice to the country that the
Republican candidate for President,
whoever he may be, will be elected
next year"
And that was the spirit of the
whole meeting. The fact that the
Republican candidates in both city
and county are as certain of cleo
ton as though the vote already had
been cast will make no difference to
Republican workers this year. They

NTOSTOREROOM
Clever Thief Fills Sample"
Gases and Drives Away
in TaXicab

Boring a hole in the floor of the
Lochier Hotel with an auger and bit,
a thief last night stole suits, shirts
and other haberdashery worth ap-
proximately $1,000. from the store
of McFall and Son, Third and Mar
ket streets.
A man, registering at the Lochiel
Hotel on Wednesday night is sus-
pected of the theft. He is believed
to be in a Central Pennsylvania city
where two of the three sample cases
of goods taken by him, are being held
by Pennsylvania Railroad police.
A hole of sufficient size to
admit mans body led from the
third floor of the Lochiel Hotel
to the second floor of the McFall
establishment. BY the use of Il
rope, the man went to and from the
McFall establishment.
Gathering the suits, shirts and
other stuff together, the man dis
carded a huge quantity of other ma
terial which he threw in mass in
a corner. Bundling the others to-
gether with tape measures, he pulled
them into his room in the hotel.
Registering at the hotel on
Wednesday evening. the stranger is
said to have passed the remark that
his sample cases had been mislaid.
On Thursday morning, however, he
appeared at short intervals, taking
three cases with him.
Leaving a call for 2.30 this morn
ing, he left the hotel at 2.45 with
his three cases, the porter assisting
him in removing them to the street
where he had called a taxicab. The
driver of the taxi reports that two
of the three cases were checked
and that the man went aboard the
$40 a. m. train for Altoona. The
two cases have been located in AL
toona and are being held by the
Pennsylvania Railroad police.
The theft was discovered by en-
ployes of the hotel shortly after the
man left

ARBOR DAY TREE
PLANTING HALTS
BECAUSE OF RAIN
Memorial Exercises Postponed
but Evergreens Will Be
Set in Place

Because of inclement weather
Park Commissioner e. u. Gross an
nounced at noon to-day that the
Arbor Day memorial tree planting
exercises which were to have been
held this afternoon in Reservoir
Park, have been postponed.
1t is possible the Park Department
will arrange to hold the memorial
and dedicatory services within the
next week. AS only few trees were
to be planted this fall it is believed
that department will arrange an ex-
tensive program for the spring Arbor
Day at which time the remaining
number of trees will be planted.
Ninety-siX soldiers and sailors
from Harrisburg gave their lives dur
ing war service. and in honor of each
one the city will plant a white pine,
attaching to it bronze marker CIV
ing the name, rank and date of
death of each man.
Despite the inclement weather to-
day many residents of the city
planted trees, having made prep
arations yesterday. Many of these
trees were taken from the city nurs-
cry during the day and delivered by
truck together with a booklet of
instructions on how to plant and
care for trees.
Planting in the city parks will be
continued for about a week under
the direction of V. Grant Forrer,
assistant park superintendent, and
Mr.. Baltimore. Old trees and
younger ones which have died will
be replaced, particularly in River
Park.

Minister'S Wife Dies
Under Overturned Auto;
Pupils Save Mans Life

Caught beneath light automo-
bile in which was was riding when it
skidded and overturned at Beaver
Station about two miles east of
Hummelstown,. Mrs. Irwin l.. Beaver,
Reading, was instantly killed late
this morning. She was 81 years
old.
Her husband, the Rev. Irwin L.
Beaver, editor of the Reformed
Church Record and former pastor of
the Olivet Reformed Church, Read
ing, escaped with slight bruises and
scratches. An x-ray picture is be-
ing taken at the Harrisburg Hospital
of his left arm, which was injured
in the accident. Mr.. Beaver was
driving the automobile.
The proximity of pupils of the
Beaver school located nearby, is re-
sponsible for the Rev. Mr.. Beavers
escape with his life. When the auto
mobile overturned, he was caught
beneath the seat and was able to
breath only with difficulty. Pupils
noticing the accident, rushed from
the schoolhouse and quickly right
ed the automobile, preventing his
suffocation. He was exhausted when
the machine was removed.

KING ON EARLY
TRAMP, ASHAMED
OF OLD CLOTHES
Leaves Sleeping Car at New
port For Stroll Along
Railway Tracks

Newport, Pa, Oct. 24.-"O, no!
change clothes"
Sa said King Albert, of Belgium,
to John S. Eby, former Perry county
Representative in the State Legisla-
ture, when the latter encountered
His Majesty strolling along the
Pennsylvania Railroad tracks and
expressed the desire to introduce
him to several score of Newporters
who had gathered about the special
cars.
Stop at Newport
The train on which the royal
party is travelling laid over in New
port for more than seven hours this
morning so that the travellers might
have undisturbed sleep. Being rest
ed, up, the King, attired in old
clothing. emerged from the cars and
started to stroll about the borough,
the first crowned head to set foot
IN Perry county.
Good morning, King Albert" Mr..
Eby greeted him when he recog-
nized His Majesty strolling along the
tracks toward his train. The Kings
answer was a genial handclasp,
which gave to Representative Eby
the distinction of being the first
Perry countian to grasp a foreign
rulers hand on Perry soil.
Now, King, I would like to intro
duce you to to these good Perry
countians," Mr.. Eby said as they
arrived at the cars after conversing
briefly in their walk along the rail-
road tracks.
Albert Speaks to Crowd
He was scarcely presentable, the
King demonstrated briefly, but Mr..
Eby finally persuaded him. Being
introduced around, the King shook
hands with the hearty band of warm
supporters of his democratic prin-
ciples.
During his early morning walk
about Newport the King came in
contact with a quartet of hunters.
Noticing the guns the King asked
the men what they were going to
do. When told that the mountains
about Newport offered much game
in the way of squirrels, pheasants,
quail, deer, etc, he remarked, THAT
is fine | wish 1 had the time l
would like to stay week and go
hunting"
He spoke a few words with the
crowd and briefly extolled America,
her people and paid hearty COM
pliment to Perry county when its
war record was briefly related to
him.

representative of the United States

A Democratic Monarch
King Albert was dressed for the
weather. He is a democratic mon
arch if ever there was one. Clad
in the khaki uniform of an officer
of the Belgian Army, he looked
nrecisely as T. e picture of him
made during the war when he was
battling with the German hosts ana
published broadcast in this country,
except that the strained expressed
and the lines of care had given way

glance that took in every detail or

FINAL APPEAL
MADE TO AVERT
COAL STRIKE
Direct Plea Made to Wilson
After Both Groups Reject
Two More Proposals
BIZ Associated Press

Washington, Oct. "a. - Final ap-
peal was made direct to President
Wilson to-day to prevent the strike
of half million soft coal miners,
called for November 1, after miners
and operators, meeting jointly with
Secretary Wilson, had turned down
two propositions to negotiate a new
wage agreement.
While on the point of breaking
up, the two groups needing the
plea of Secretary Wilson, agreed to
return at o'clock this afternoon
to receive message the secretary
hoped to bring from the President.
Position Unchanged
The miners and operators still
occupy the same position as last
night" Secretary Wilson said. II
made a suggestion as a new basis
of settlement which was rejected,
the operators refusing to accept and
the miners saying that, while it was
not satisfactory, they were willing
to consider it,"
Mr.. Wilson outlined the terms of
his proposition, as follows:
THAT the pick mining price be
advanced 15 cents per ton.
nat lueiSliillC ydTQdRe,
deadweight and day wages be ad-
vanced in the same ratio.
That the day work shall be eight
hours from bank to bank.
THAT there shall be Saturday
half holiday.
That with these changes the exist
ing agreement continues into effect
until March 81, 1922.
Expect to Go Home Soon
THAT while the legal termination
of the war will not take place until
some unknown time in the future.
the increase in the cost of living is
an existing fact; therefore, these
changes will go into effect as of No
vember l, 1919"
Mr.. Wilson was plainly worried
and hurried away to consult other
officials before proceeding to the
White House. Some members of the
miners group said the "blow up" had
about come and they expected t,
start for home tonight.

Advocates Votes For Women,
but Does Not Believe in
Sex Equality
LAUDS U. S. FACTORIES
Declares Styles Change Too

bans May Establish Mode
-AUDS U. S. FACTORIES

Queen Elizabeth, of the Belgians,
advocates votes for women, but she
does not believe in the equality of
the sexes any more than in employ
ing militant methods to obtain suff-
rage. She said so to-day in the, first
interview she had given in America.
The Queen spoke just before the
parade.
You ask if I have gained any i'm
pressions from the factories l have
visited" Her Majesty said. IT have
been very much impressed with the
clear-eye, red-cheeked girls 1 have
seen in your workrooms. I think
their evident happiness is due to
the pure air, the cleanliness and
the generally splendid surroundings.
1t is my hope that employers of
working people in Belgium and all
over Europe will model their fac
tories after those in the United
States.
Must Protect Women
I'VE have lost so many men in
war" she added sadly, that the
women must work, and as women
are the mothers of the race every
thing possible should be done to pro-
tect them"
Queen Elizabeth has very definite
ideas on the education of girls, it
developed. She does not believe in
the separation of the sexes in school,
although she emphatically advocates
educating girls along one line and
boys along quite another.
1.-The war taught me-" she said
that there is no equality of the
sexes. My husband was a soldier
and l was nurse. So it was with
all women. The future should see
work divided along the same lines.
