Miss Bertha Myers of Favette The small child that was badly injured yesterday at Interlaken when the Black Diamond express passed through that village, is still alive. The youngster, a boy about eighteen months old, is the son of an Italian employed by the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company. It was said today that the child, who is still in a critical condition, will probably be taken to the railroad hospital in Sayre, Pa." Although officials of the company who were on the train when it passed through Interlaken at 11 o'clock yesterday at a speed of fifty miles an hour were practically certain that the child had been struck by the pilot of the locomotive, it was claimed today by two men who witnessed the accident from a distance that the locomotive did not strike the boy. They expressed the conviction that the draft caused by the rapid passage of the train threw the child to one side and against the fence and that the bruise on the boy's head was caused by a piece of rock ballast from the street has returned from a visit with Hi!

R. Sawyer Co. 139-141 E. State Ithaca OPERA ARTISTS HEARD AT CONSERVATORY Tomorrow will be Dollar Day, one of the great shopping events of the year in Ithaca. A dollar will go a good deal farther in Ithaca stores and business places tomorrow than it ordinarily does, as the special announcements in The Journal's advertising columns have demonstrated to the buying public of Ithaca and Tompkins County.

A study of these advertisements will establish that genuine bargains will be offered to the public by the merchants of Ithaca and that a great opportunity is open to every buyer in the city. The advertising columns of The Journal last night carried a series of messages of good cheer to the consumers of Ithaca. The Journal tonight carries similar messages. By reading over the advertisements and making shopping lists the buying public will be able to take full advantage of the opportunities offered on this great shopping day. Dollar Day to the consumer means a bigger purchasing value for his or her money; for the merchant an opportunity to clear out stock and get cash for it.

The merchants will offer for sale only "good goods" and they are offering these goods at genuine reductions. Both merchants and consumers will benefit. The Dollar Day message has gone out through the county and all indications are that hundreds of residents of nearby towns and villages and from the country-side will come in to Ithaca to take full advantage of the bargains offered by the Ithaca merchants. All in all, it promises to be a banner day in Ithaca's business history. Remember, Dollar Day comes tomorrow, Thursday, February 23.

Edward Bishop, aged about twenty-six years, was arraigned in City Court this morning on a charge of robbery, preferred by Oscar J. Richard, a middle-aged man employed in the salt plant at Myers. Richard alleges that Bishop, with two companions, assaulted him late last Tuesday night near Cascadilla and Meadow streets. Richard claims that his assailants took from him $15 in money and a watch-chain, valued at $3.50. According to Richard's story he had been in the vicinity of West State and Meadow streets shortly before the robbery and had stepped into a restaurant to get something to eat.

He alleges that Bishop and his companions told him they would direct him to a better restaurant, to which pain he agreed. Richard says that as they neared the corner of Cascadilla and Meadow streets his companions turned on him and beat him, one of the men at the same time going through his pockets. Richard's face was covered with blood and both eyes were blackened when he managed to reach police headquarters and tell his story. The assault occurred shortly after 12 o'clock at night, he said. Suspicion turned on Bishop when it was learned that he had been inquiring for Richard on the night of the robbery.

Bishop and two other suspects were taken into custody and put through a rigid examination by District Attorney Collins and Chief of Police Buck. Bishop maintained his innocence, but the police claim to have damaging evidence against him. Richard identified Bishop as one of his assailants. District Attorney Collins appeared in court this morning for the People, but Bishop said he was not ready to proceed as he had no lawyer. By agreement the case was adjourned until next Monday morning at 10 o'clock and Bishop was remanded to the county jail.

The other suspects who will be used as witnesses were paroled until that time. friends in New tYork.

The courtesy was extended through E. L. Elliott, to whose initiative the grand opera season here is due.

The recital opened with an orchestral trio of harpv 'cello and which rendered a Serenata," a composition by Signor Carlos Curti, arranged especiall for thi3 occasion. This was followed by an operatic selection by Mis Hostense Dorvalle, who won such enthusiastic applause for her rendition of Santuzza in "Cavalleria" on Monday night. Miss Dorvalle responded to an encore, and was roundly applauded. Miss Dorothea Edwards then gave the beautiful "Blind Girls' Song" from "Gioconda in a manner that inspired the highest degree of enthusiasm in her audience, and led to two encores to which she graciously responded. Miss Edwards and Miss Norvalle will both be heard in "Aida" tonight.

At the close Signor Curti by special request rendered two of his own compositions on the mandolin, an instrument of which he is a perfect master.

J. Pritchard George Spiess, national lecturer on social science.

Mr. Spiess graduate of St. Thomas of Villanova Plans are being made at The Thomas Brothers Aeroplane Company to perfect a course and a flying field near the plant where students who are registered in the aviation school may gain knowledge of the proper way in which to control a flying machine. Several plans have been made by the company since coming to Ithaca so as to provide the best type of instruction for those who enter the aviation school which now numbers six students. An additional class is now in-process of organization.

O. W. Thomas, of The Thomas Brothers Aeroplane Company, has just compiled an aviation instruction book which is to be placed upon the market and sold at a moderate figure to each member of the aviation school. This is the first one on record and has been compiled very carefully, with a view to containing information valuable to experienced flyers as well as affording the right kind of information and instructions for beginners. In his itro-duction Mr.

Thomas says: "With the aeroplane of the present day speedy travel is possible with a high degree of safety. "The risks taken by the average drivers of automobiles, motorcycles and speed boats traveling at 50 miles per hour are 4a many cases greater than those taken by an aviator traveling at the same or even higher speeds; firstly, because the average automobile or motorcycle owner is not in the habit of-traveling at these speeds and secondly, because the surface and bends of the average road combined with the effects of traffic and "skiddy" surfaces positively forbid such a speed being held continuously. "In the case of the speed boat the risks are about the same in rough weather. Except in the case of the aviator, the average driver can gradually work up to the 50 miles per hour gait with the aid of his skill and general experience. If he is unlucky or clumsy his new experience may come to be expensive.

"In the case of the aeroplane the same general points hold good with the exception that the would-be aviator must thoroughly acquaint himself with nature of the atmosphei'e and the new processes of starting, flying and landing before undertaking his first flight alone. These are new sensations which must be acquired by experience. The science of flight is similar to the science of electricity for it depends upon the knowledge of the laws governing an invisible fluid and these laws must be absolutely adhered to. The poorly instructed electrical engineer runs equal risks of accident with the uninstructed flier who plunges into an unexplored element with which he has neglected to acquaint himself. Need of Instruction "For these reasons it is absolutely necessary that the embryonic aviator should be instructed both technically and practically.

"The following pages' contain briefly and in a general way what every aviator must know, but by no means form a complete treatise on the science of aviation, but rather a series of beacons pointing out the way and giving the necessary warnings." Following these general outlines of the subject there are chapters on running gear, planes, power plant, controls and other essential features of the machines, both land and water flying types. While issuing a book to the aviation student, it is intended to facilitate their study of wind currents and facts of altitude, barometric pressure and other features of aviation. By attention to these details Is Intended to place the Thomas School In the front rank for safety and initiative.

To Put on Flesh and Increase Weight Most thin people eat from four to nix pounds of pood solid fat-ma king food every day and still do not increase in weight one ounce, while on the other hand many of the plump, chunky folks eat very lightly and keep paining all the time. Ifs all bosh to say that this In the nature of the individual. It Isn't Nature's way at all.

Thin folks stay thin because their powers of assimilation are defective. They absorb Just enoujfh of the food they eat to maintain life and a semblance of health and strength. Stuffing won't help them. A dozen meals a day won't make them gain a single "stay there" pound. All the fat-producing elements of their food just stay in the intestines until they pass from the body as waste.

What such people need is something that will prepare these fatty food elements eo that their blood can absorb them and deposit them all about the body something, too, that will multiply their red blood corpuscles and increase their blood's carrying power. For such a condition I alwavs recommend eating a Sargol tablet with every meal. Sargol is not. as some believe, a patented drug, but it is a scientific combination of six most effective and powerful elements known to chemistry. It is absolutely harmless, yet wonderfully effective and a single tablet eaten with each meal often has the effect of Increasing the weight of a thin man or woman from three to five pounds a week.

Sargol is sold by good druggists everywhere on a positive guarantee of weight increase or money back. CORNELL CHI PHIS NEARLY WIN CUP before we are swamped by the quantities of new goods.
