Governor Tener Pays For anOperation on Caddy's Eyelid

Wagging of Tongues Brings Out Story of Why "Squink"Heck Will Squink No More

A bit of kindness on the part o£Governor John K. Tener, done for acaddy at the Harrisburg Country Club,became known to-day when told bythe parents of the boy, who live atLucknow.

As is well known. Governor Teneris fond of a trip around the linkrandwhenever possible he spends an after-noon on the Country Club course.George Heck, nicknamed "Squink,"frequently caddies for His Excellency.

The lad's sobriquet was given him be-cause of a habit he has of squintinghis eye owing to an affliction popu-lary called "falling eyelid."

The Governor took an interest inthe youngster's case and last weekbought him a brand new suit, took himto the Union Station In his car andpersonally accompanied the caddy tothe Jefferson Hospital. And it's theGovernor who is taking care of theoperation expenses.

13-YEAR-OLD BOYWAniOERED A WEEKON MOUNTAIN ALONE

Edward Cole Slept in Wagon; HisOnly Food Chestnuts N

and Apples

Shivery nights between a tatteredhorse blanket and the hard floor of aspring wagon, apples only for break-fast, chestnuts and apples for luncheon,apples and chestnuts for dinner ?allthat is Just a tough luck memory ofoiid long miserable week in the Wico-nlsco mountains for 13-year-old Ed-ward L. Cole now.

Edward, henceforth, will study byday and perhaps learn a trade, andhave plenty to eat and a nice, cleanbed tQ sleep in, and perhaps?whoknows?he'll leave all that and go outInto the world and earn a regular liv-ing and doubtless lay the roundatlonsfor slippers and a fireside of his own.

That, in brief, is the cause, theremedy and the probable effect of aspecial session of juvenile court whichAdditional Law Judge S. J. M. McCar-rell held yesterday afternoon, when hnheard Cole's story as a "dependent andneglected child" tind then decreed thathe be sent to the Glen Mills School.

A Story of SorrowThe juvenile court records do not

contain a sorrier story of a fatherless,motherless boy than that which wastold to Judge McCarrell. Here it is:

Up until a few weeks ago Edwardwas in charge of his aged grand-mother. Mrs. Anna Cole, of Wlconisco.The times grew so hard and Mrs.Cole's circumstances were so reducedthat she had to let Edward shift forhimself. So Edward took to the moun-tains.

Allhe could get to eat were the ap-ples and chestnuts he could find, hequietly told Judge McCarrell; at nightshe crawled into an abandoned wagonulong the mountain road, wrappedhimself in an old horse blanket andwatched the stars that swing overWiconisco mountains until he went tosleep. Finally Samuel Miller, a store-keeper of Lykens, discovered the ladand promptly interested himself In Illsbehalf in such a way that the casewas brought to the county authorities'

attention and the soecial session ofjuvenile court yesterday resulted. In-cidentally Mrs. Anna Simonetti, whotried in vain to have some of Ed's rela-tives care for him, will keep her eyeon the boy.

Knows Where His Mother IsAs to his own wanderings sansfather or mother. Edward himselfsadly told the court. For twelve yearshis father's whereabouts have "beenunknown.

I'And your mother?" Ed was asked.Oh, yes," Instantly answered thesmall traveler, "I know where she Is."Edward's mother has been deadsince he was 3 years old.

Pennsy Now Trying to Put Engineon Difficult Part of the

Main Line

The stretch of the main line betweenthe Conemaugh yards and Altoona isbecoming one of the most importanttest roads on the entire Pennsy system.Because of the unusual grade whichmarks the eastern part of the roadand the numerous curves and otherfeatures of the mountain, travel ln thewestern part of this section is declaredideal for the purpose to which thoPennsylvania is now putting it.

The Pennsylvania is experimentingwith the Mallet engine the largestever built. If it does not prove suc-cessful on this part of the division itis likely to be many years before it isused for hauling main line trains.

Notice has been issued to passengertrainmen that the annual autumn in-spection of uniforms will be held dur-ing November.

To Build New PlantFor Heat Testing in

Pennsy Juniata ShopsA big plant, where the frames of

the largest locomotives may be heattreated, will be erected as a part ofthe Juniata shops within the nearfuture. Engineers for the company,after exhaustive tests at the plant al-ready ln use, decided to give practi-cally all the steel entering into theconstruction of a locomotive a specialheat-treatment.

The building of the new heat treat-ing plant, which will be Just twice thesize of the plant already in use, willlikely necessitate the building of anew shop to house the bolt-makingmachines, and this shop will likely bebuilt Just cast of the shops.

About a year ago the first heat treat-ing plant was built at Juniata, andsince that time all rods, pistons andother parts have been heat treated.

No official announcement concern-ing the new plant has yet been made,but it will be issued within a shorttime.

FOR PRESIDENCY[Continued From First Page]

Pennsylvania and as the man who de-feated the chosen candidates ofPresident Wilson in this State, willloom up large when it comes to thechoice of a man to head the Repub-lican column for President in 1916,"said Mr. Hargest, and the crowdcheered its approval.

Mr. Hargest recalled that he hadaddressed i* meeting of Enhaut peopletwo years ago and that he had thenpredicted that if the voters elevatedWilson to the Presidency hard timeswould surely follow. He said hedidn't like to pose in the light of say-ing "I told you so," but he felt thathis forecast had come all too true."And now, the question Is," said he,"are we going to vote an endorsementof Wilson by electing his candidates,or are we going to eiect Republicansin Pennsylvania and start the countryhack toward the prosperity we en-joyed when the Republican party wasin power at Washington?"

Squire A. W. Ellenberger, a well-known Republican, presided and in-troduced the speakers.

Germans Reported toBe in Fear of Aircraft

By Associated PressLondon, Oct. 28, 3.25 A. M.?The

correspondent of the Daily Mall inParis, gives a copy of the German or-der on avoiding aeroplanes. It says:

"According to the report of aero-"lane observers our troops are veryeasy to discover in spite of their grayuniforms, because of the density oftheir formation while the Frenchknow how to protect themselves per-fectly from aerial reconnaissance.

"During a fight our tro.ops mustmake use of the narrow files amongthe trees at the edges of villages andnear the shelter of houses, avoidingmass formations. Above all absolutestillness must be maintained in ex-posed places. At the approaches ofan aeroplane all movements shouldcease and it is also necessary to avoidall movement of batteries when aero-planes are surveying. A single manmoving will betray a battery. Thereshould also be no tiring for the Hashof the gun destroys Its position to theair squadron."

Chief Marshal Puts a Crimp inClever Little Democratic

Scheme

'<;!? i:l-i s.

Chief Marshal

An order issued this morning byJoseph H. Gerdes, chief marshal of thebig firemen's parade to be held Friday

night, forestalled any attempt of local

Democrats to repeat their tactics atthe reSent firemen's parade in Har-risburg, when small boys were inducedto carry high banners endorsing thefree-trade candidates over the entireroute of the parade.

Realizing that, under present con-ditions here, it is impossible for thefree-trade candidates to get an audi-ence from the hundreds of steel work-ers thrown out of work by tariff slash-ings, the Democratic workers met lastevening* and planned to hold a "rally"at Front and Locust streets, Fridayevening, while the firemen's parade isin progress. In this way they schem-ed to attract the attention of the fire-men and to force them to listen totheir pleadings for the free-trade can-didates.

The program follows:

When Chief Marshal Gerdes heard ofthe scheme this morning he prompt-ly put a crimp into the plans by Issu-ing the following order: "No one. butfiremen, and no campaign banners ofany description whatever will be al-lowed in the parade by orders of thechief marshal, J. H. Gerdes."

At a meeting last evening furtherdetails for the parade were workedout. John Craig was elected assistantmarshal and the following route wasagreed upon: Front to Conestoga, toMain, to Trewick, to Myers, to Front,to Jefferson, to Third, to Bessemer, toDaron avenue, to Lincoln, to Harris-burg, to Pine, to Second, to Chamb-ers, to Front, to Conestoga and coun-termarch to the Baldwin hose house.

ITS. STEEL GUTSCOMMON DIVIDEND

Tariff Tinkering Is Having SameResults Elsewhere as

at Steelton

Much comment was made in Steel-ton this morning over yesterday's ac-tion of the United States Steel Cor-poration in reducing its annual divi-dend on common stock 3 per cent.,owing to the business depression.

In vie.w of the recent retrenchmentsof the Pennsylvania Steel Company,this action is looked upon as havingconsiderable local significance. Whetheior not it will be necessary for thePennsylvania Steel Company to takesteps similar to the Steel Corporationis a matter of much interest. Theannual reports of earnings will bemade some time in January.

Elbert H. Gary, chairman of theboard of directors of the Steel Cor-poration, issued this statement con-cerning the reduction of the dividendon the common stock: "The decisionwas made with reluctance by the boardof directors, but the members were ofthe opinion that it was made necessaryby the present conditions of businessand the prospects for the Immediatefuture."

The reduction in the dividend ofSteel common will fall heavily uponthousands of owners of the 5,083,025shares. Many persons who havebought this stock on margin have re-lied upon tho dividend of 5 per cent,per annum to pay the carrying charges.

Earnings of the Steel Corporationwere very large before tariff tinkeringbegan, but in the first quarter of thisyear they dropped $16,000,00, as com-pared with the first quarter of 1913,and in the second quarter they de-clined $20,000,000. This falling off inbusiness and profits camo with thelow tariff act and before the beginningof the European war.
