It was like this: A fire alarm came in and all the down-town apparatus answered.

There was no fire. Assistant Chief Hoyle found an aged negro woman standing by the box. "No, sar, dere ain't no fire. Ah just mailed a letter, that's all," she told the chief. The chief then ex commented Coulihan.

"I wonder what's the matter with him." In desperation a representative of the gum machine company was called and opened the machine. Among the hundreds of pennies nestled a shiny $5 gold piece. Lee saw it first, annexed it, then in perfectly good English thanked all concerned and went his way, chewing away on his gum.

"Whoopee! Kong-wah-lung, kl yunk yippee." Jim Loe, laundry worker, gave vent to the above and lots more. At the same, time he pounded on a penny gum machine on a station.

Although he confessed to beating L. B.erquist, a taxicab driver, into in-, sensibility with a gas pipe for the purpose of robbery, George Pidd, a discharged soldier from Camp Lewis, is a free man.

He can never be tried again on the charge because of a technical violation of the law by the trial court. Pidd was tried by a court-martial at Camp Lewis, found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment. Before he could be sent to a Government prison the sentence was declared invalid by the War Department because Fidd's wife had testified against him. He was "dishonorably discharged from the Army. Then the county authorities brought a criminal charge against him of assault in the first degree.

When tried, he confessed his guilt, stiylng his wife wanted money to go to Portland.

Gumby, 114S Cumberland street, Harrisburg. I was a great sufferer with stomach and intestinal trouble. After eating would bloat badly, had pain in stomach and under shoulder blades. I often got dizzy and was very nervous and shaky. At times would suffer from ft smothering sensation.

I was in a serious condition. Sanpan had restored my wife to health, and she kept at me until I started to take it. and I must say, it restored as quickly as it did her. Sanpan is sold only at Keller's Drug Store, 405 Market street, Harrisburg. "7 declared it could not agree on a verdict and telephoned to the trial judge to this effect.

The Judge ordered the jury discharged before he realized his mistake in discharging the jury when the defendant was not present. Taking advantage of this technicality, the defendant's lawyers argued he could not be retried and Pidd was allowed to go free with no possibility of his having to face trial again on this charge. 3 jjti il Af Complexion Rosy.
