returned to-day from Chicago, where
he attended the meeting of agrlcul-
tural officials of the United States,
said that there would be no quar-
antine established against Pennsyl-
vania because of the potato wart.
The quarantine work within the
State, he said. was the most effective
that could be devised.
State Health inspectors have been
detailed to Pomeroy and other
points In Chester county to tnvesti-
gate outbreaks of diphtheria.
Taxicab operators advanced =
unique reason for high fares yes
terday in a hearing at Philadelphia.
They alleged that the high fares
were due to the necessity of taking
out indemnity insurance, and one
man said that he had to pay $3.50
a year for that purpose and OBJ
jected to 1t.
FIfty-one OF the counties have
filed their judicial returns of the
election on November 4. Some of
the counties are stated to be un-
usually late with their returns.

Court action to determine wheth-
er the State of Pennsylvania will
have to go through a long and in
volved process to obtain unclaimed
bank deposits under the escheat
laws as recently construed by the
Supreme Court of this State will be
argued in the Dauphin county court
on November "a when an action
against one of the trust companies
here will be threshed out. The pro-
ceeding has attracted considera BILE
attention as it will affect many
thousands of dollars which State
officials hope to get.
Over a dozen receivers of bank
ing and other concerns which were
ordered liquidated by action of the
Attorney General in the Dauphin
county court have been ordered to
hasten the closing up of the trans
actions. Some of these receiverships
have been dragging along for years
and the State authorities are anxious
to get in the money and to clear
the books. A recent search of the
dockets at the Attorney Generals
offices disclosed some receivers who
had not filed reports for q long
time. In case they fail to act the
court will be notified.

Gypsy Fortune Tellers
Operating Unmolested

Gypsy fortune tellers continue to
operate in the borough, unmolested
by the police. 1t IS said. Several
crowds of gypsies have been in town
for more than a month and nave
been fleecing the foreigners mostly.
1t Is understood.

from a resident almost o month ago
just became generally known this
morning. Mrs. Charles n. Meckley,
81 Chestnut street, whose husband
works in the steel foundry depart
ment of the steel plant, this morn
ing told a story that about a month
ago she permitted a well-dressed
gypsy fortune teller to tell her for
tune. The woman said she made
a deposit of 20 cents on the fortune
and then. before telling her much,
the fortune teller said dollar more
was necessary before she would pro-
ceed. The woman told her she did
not nave any more money and the
gypsy told her she had $50 in the
house. Later Mrs. Meckley said she
gave the fortune teller the money
SiS aShSu loi anu She pFoceeueu 10
tell her many things" The gypsy
insisted it was necessary for her to
have the diamond ring Mrs. MeckIey
Was wearing and $50 for two days
before certain things would come
true Mrs. Meckley said she al
lowed her to have the ring after she
insisted. but told her she did not
have any money. The fortune teller
than told her she would return in a
few days for the money and give
back the ring. Since that time, Mrs
Meckley said, she did not see the
ring, which she valued highly. The
affair was not reported TO the police
she said.

MEMORIAL FOR
SERVICE MEN
Businessmen and Residents
Awaiting Plans For Erection
of Community House

The erection of community
building as memorial to the resi-
dents of this borough who served
with the colors during the World
War. may be the outcome of a move
OH foot In this borough to show
how proud residents are of their
service men, Is the opinion of busi-
nessmen.
1t is understood a plan of this
kind may be followed out by the
Municipal League committee ap-
pointed to arrange fitting and
proper welcome home. Officers and
members of the League to-day
would not discuss the matter for
publication but businessmen were
free and open with their opinion In
the move. A meeting of this com
mittee from the League will likely
be held during the next week, it
was learned to-day.
Feeling the need of q community
house for several years. churchmen
and residents have made efforts to
reorganize the Y. NJ. G. A. but
initiative in the work was lacking
and nothing was done. Businessmen
have felt the need of a house for the
young men of the borough and are
enthusiastic over this plan.
Because of indefinite plans 1t was
impossible to get any information as
to the memorial. A member said in
reply to all inquiries that the plan
was Just discussed and there is
nothing to say about it at this time.
However, 1t Is generally known that
the proposed buildir- will be on SIM
liar plans TO War Camp Community
buildings which were operated by
the government during the war
, Residents are anxiously awaiting an
official announcement about the pro-
posed memorial.
