DAUGHTER OF RICH
MAN VANISHES FROM
FAST EXPRESS TRAIN
Disappears at South Fram
ingham While En Route
With Father, Who Was
Taking Her to School.
WORCESTER JIa83., Sept. 29. Disap
pearing mysteriously between Uoston
and Wprcestcr, while on the way to
l'cokskllli N. Y., on n Boston and Albany
express train Sunday afternoon, no traco
ns yet lias been found of Miss Katlinrlno
Keating, 16 years old, daughter of it. 9.
Keating', a wealthy Dallas,
torncy.
The father was taking the girl from
Boston to a private school In l'ceksklll,
Up snys she had about $123 In her pock
etbook and looked 20 Instead of 1C.
Miss Keating and her father started
from Boston for Albany, whero thoy
veto to change cars for Pccksklll. Just
previous to the train pulling Into South
Framlngham Mr. Keating left his par
lor seat to smoke, returning as the train
was possibly 15 or 0) miles from thla
city to II ml his daughter gone.
Believing she had gone to tho women's'
washroom, tno minor waited a row min
utes, but when tho trnln approached
Worcester became worried and started
search of all cars with the aid of tho
conductor. No traco of tho girl could
be found nnd tho father alighted In
Worcester and wired South Framlngham
and then notldod tho local police
Tho police of Worcester and South
Framlngham trnced ttfo girl to tho lat
ter city, where It was said she boarded
a trolley car for Worcester. No reason
for leaving tho train Is given by the
wealthy Dallas attorney, other than tho
egi'tHcl that his daughter was unw.llllng to
rrturn to tho Peeksklll school. Ho was
asked if It was not possible that a ro
mance was responsible, and ho answered
thnt as far as ho knew thcro was none.
U. S. EMBASSY SPLENDORS
Americans in London Amazed by
Mngniflence of New Quarters.
LONDON, Sept 29. Tho American Em
bassy lias opened for business with ail
coiners In the new ofllces, at 4 Grosvenor
Gardens. Naturalized Americans and
refugees from tho Continent who called
there thought they had visited Bucking
ham Palace by mistake, so magnificent
ari tho embassy's present quarters.
Jcffcrsonlan simplicity Is notlccablo only
in the rooms where carpets are not yet
laid, owing to the haste in moving.
The houso Is a skyscraper, according to
London Ideas, there being five stories and
a sort of roof garden above. Each sec
retary has a room big enough to play
tennis In, and the Ambassador's sanc
tum Is so spacious that It Is necessary
to use a megaphone in speaking across
it The top Moor has sightly smaller
rooms, which the unmarried attaches aro
reganling covetously as possible bachelor
ii:pui tmenta.
American residents of London who
called to Inspect tho new embassy were
sprecliless at the splendor, and respect
for the United States, which has Increas
ed tiemendously since tho war began,
took another upward leap.

of his war experiences and ills Impres
sluns of the now Pope.
I'M,- big delegation of 3iio, who Intend

An eloquent comments ry on tho feel
ing that exists between British officers
and men, and a reason why the list of
casualties among the British commis
sioned ofTlcers has been- so largo Is fur
nished In the fo!16wlng tetter w""?"
bya noncommissioned officer of tho Buffs.
"No regiment fought harder than we
did, and no regiment has better officers,
who wont shoulder to shoulder with their
men, but volt can't expect absolute lm
poslhllltles to be accomplished, no mat
ter how bravo tho boys are, when you
aro fighting a force 20 to 30 times an
strong. If some of you nt home who
havo spoken snccrlngly of British officers
could havo een how they handled their
men Hnd shirked nothing you would bo
ashamed of yourselves. We nro all de
termined when It Is fit ngnln to return
and got our own back."
Hundreds of men from the Salvation
Army missions have answered the call of
Lord Kitchener for services loyally and
promptly. Stories of the gallantry and
bravery of the Salvationists aro now
Coming back from the front.
One of tho wounded served as a motor
driver In tho royal field artillery. Ho
was a bandsman In tho Salvation Army
beforo war was declared and told of
hearing other former Salvationists sing
ing tho favorlto songs of the army on
tho battlefields at night.
Telling of tho fighting, tho former
bandsman said:
"Shells were bursting all around us and
I was struck by a splinter. It wob only
a flesh wound, however, so I bound It
up nnd went ahead with my work. First
It seemed the enemy was getting tho bet
ter of us, then he would retreat and so
the battle went all day. Comrades were
falling all around me. Tho Germans
wero falling In hundreds. So thick wore
tho dead of tho enemy that when tho
order to advanco was given wo simply
had to force the motor over heaps of
bodies. Whllo following tho retreating
Germans six of us got lost. For four
days we tramped without anything to
eat or drink. On tho third day our
tongues wero hanging out from thirst
and two of the men went mad. It waB
on tho fourth night that we fell In with
tho British ambulance sections, and ono
of tho first sounds I heard was a wound
ed man In ono of the wagons singing:
" 'I'm a child of a king,
I'm a child of a king,
With Jesus my saviour,
I'm a child of a king.'
"I learned that he was a Salvationist
and later In tho stillness of tho night I
heard a clear voice In another part of
the camp Binging:
" 'Then wo'll roll the old chariot nlong,
And wo won't drag on behind.'
"The song was taken up in other parts
of the camp until It swelled Into a chorue
of voices that made tho air ring with
the old Salvation Army song.'
Reports Indicate it sometimes takes a
lot to kill a modern soldier. Sergeant
iFougere, of Franco, received eight bul
let wounds, a broken arm and other In
juries, and although shot In the calf,
thigh and ankle, escaped being captured
by Germans, and limped ten miles to his
regiment. Another French soldlor re
solved " six bullet and threo bayonet
wounds and is recovering. Tho French
War Office estimates only two men arc
killed out of every 100 hit. The penetra
tion is so clean one soldier did not know
he had been hit for threo hours, and an
other bullet went through two soldiers
and lodged In a cavalryman's saddle.
"If oLndon wero to follow the oxample
of tho Russian capital and TWange its
name." says tho London Times, "Cos
mopolls might be a suitable title. For six
weeks citizens of other nations havo been
pouring Into England until London has
become a vast hostel. Belgians whose
homes have becomo smoking ruins.
Frenchmen on whoso lands, tho soldiers of
three nations aro now fighting, Russians
whom the outbreak of war surprised in
some alien country all have sought these
shores. Here, too, are many of our ene
mies' subjects Germans and Austrlana
who were In England when war broke
out. and have chosen to prolong their so
journ. At the hint of war, Germans who
were In Paris flowed over to England.
This Invasion has turned London Into u
city where alien tongues may bo heard
everywhere. In omnibuses and trains. In
the shops nnd theatres ono sees foreign
ers and listens to foreign speech. Ono
might almost suggest that London's new
motto should be 'Icl on parle Francals,'
for In certain parts of the city the lan
guage of our Allies Is heard almost as
frequently as our own."
Some of the privates at least In the
German ranks nro under the Impression
that Japan and tho United States aro
taking part In the war on the German
side, ucordlng to a letter received In Lon
don from an officer of a Highland regi
ment now at the front.
In every camp whero Britain's now
armies nro being trained tho regular drill
Instructors are sweating over their com
pany rolls at night, desperately trying to
remember the pronunciation of the names
of aristocratic recruits who do not rec
ognize Cholmondley when pronounced as
It is spelt.
A sergeant calling the roll for a com
pany of the .new "sportsmen" battalion
for the llrs.t time had a terrible experi
ence recently. Having disposed success
fully of a few "Harpers," "Mitchells."
etc., ho came to the name "Montague."
"Private Montalg," shouted the ser
geant. There was no reply, but when the namo
wis repeated a half-hearted "Here, sir,"
came from the ranks.
"Why didn't you answer before?" de
manded the sergeant. "Because my name
is Mon-ta-guo," replied tho recruit,
"Well," snapped the sergeant, "you'll
do seven days fatlgew."
The next name on the list, Majorlbanks,
brought no response, for the sergeant
pronounced "Mnjoreybanks,"
A second call brought the mild response.
"I expect you taean me, sir. My name Is
Marshbanks.' "
The sergeant almost reeled, but pro
ceeded bravely with "Colquhoun."
"Private Col-kew-houn." he called.
"Coohoon, sir, that's me," came a brisk
reply from the front rank.
The drill Instructor gave up and, clos
ing his hook, he wearily gave the order
"number." When this was completed he
said:
"One hundred and twenty-one. That's
right. Now, If there aro any more of you
with fancy names Just come to me after
drill and tell me how you would like to
be ealUd."
A tale of disappointment told to King
Gent go by a wounded private told of a
s -colon who missed their dinner. The
vehicle carrying the food had Just arrived
when the Genitalis came on. The attack
having been repulded, and the enemy
dilveii buck, the British wero returning,
no doubt feeling that a meal had been
w.-ell-earned, when a German shell struck
tho wagon and blew it and the dinner to
pieces. Tho soldiers had to console them
selves as best they could with a biscuit
upiece.
A story of peculiarly hard luck was that
ot a tioldler who took advantage of a halt
to u-move one of his boots. Hardly had he
got it off than a German attack developed
and In the sklrnilnh his boot was lost. For
the -subsequent three days he did his
best, marching with ono foot properly
shod and the other practically bare, but
ut the end of that time he had to be
sent home as uu Invalid.
As In the days of the Boer War, hap
less Infants are already being marked
for life by the critical events of the
European conflict. "Alsace Lorraine
Jones" nnd "Louvaln Nlcholls" are
among tho child-Insurance registrations
of tho current week. Tho epidemic of
topical nomenclature In the South Afri
can days was crystallized into n song,
of which the chorus rant
The baby's name was Kitchener, Carrlng-
toti, Kckewlch, Mcthtlcn, White.
Cronje, Kruger, Powell, MaJuba, Gatacre,
Warren, Cofonso Bright.
Capetown, Mafeklng, French, Klmbcrley,
Ladysmlth, Dobbs,
The Union Jack, Fighting Mnc, Bullcr,
Pretoria, Bobs.
When M. Antolno Bevclll, a Paris en
gineer, readied his flnt one night this
week ho found In his bed, sleeping the
sleep -of Innocence, a rosy infant. PlnneS
on tho coverlet was a note, "My mother
Is dead, and my father has gone to the
front." M. Bevclll has accepted the
charge so delicately laid upon him.
The London Dally Mall's Paris cor
respondent tells a story of a trick played
b Lieut. Col. La Boque, who was wound
ed und captured In the battle of tho
Marne.
When ho recovered consciousness he
found himself In a German ambulanco
corps, established In a farrrj. There
wero several German Bed Cross attend
ants nnd a guard of five men, under
a sergennt with fixed bayonets.
At 4 o'clock tho next afternoon a Bmall
French patrol, searching tho neighbor
hood, fired a few Bhots at some Uhlans
posted near there, and, after putting
them to flight, rodo away. La Boque
turned this Incident to profit.
Ho at onco took command of tho Gor
man detachment, nnd, speaking excel
lent German, assured tho Bed Cross
attendants thoy had nothing to fear, as
ho would protect them. Then, turning
to the guard of six men, ho told them
If thoy did not want to be shot by French
troopers they had better surrender them
selves to him. Ho made them lay down
their arms and locked them up In a
shed.
La Roque then made his escape, nnd
despite two wounds, succeeded In reach
ing a French outpost beforo falling down
exhausted from loss of blood.
QUESTION
LIQUOR
STIRS DELAWARE
AS LEADING ISSUE
Lower Portion of State Espe
cially Interested in Subject
of License and Party Lines
Disregarded.
WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. ' 23,-Poll-tlclann
of all parties are worried over
the prohibition question. In this county
they aro of the opinion that the "wets"
will bo In a majority, and that the ques
tion of license will not figure largely In
tho campaign, but In tho lower portion
of tho State the situation Is mixed, nnd
no one can toll what tho effect Is going
to be.
It Ib said tho "wet" and ."dry" lines
aro closer drawn In the lower part of
the Stnte than ever beforo and that resi
dents ,nro aligning themselves on this
Ibsuo more than with the political parties.
In ono district a Democrat has been
nommntcd who is a -"dty" man and tho
Bopubllcans there sny that they will sup
port him because ho Is "dry." In an
other district a Republican nominated
for office may bo "dry" and tho "dry"
Democrats are apparently with him to a
man. The same division 5s being made
on men who are "wet."
Tho Progressives by declaring for State
wide prohibition expect to get nil of tho
"dry" votes, but this they will not do.
The "wet" and "dry" peoplo will vote
for tho men who favor them regardless
of party lines, because they consider thla
tho most Important question which Is to
come before the Legislature.
Two years ago tho question was not
bo strongly drawn In respect to legislative
candidates, because there was a United
States Senator to bo elected, and the
"wets" and "drj's" put asldo their dif
ference In order to assist in the elec
tion of a man of their own party to the
Senate, hut this year there Is no Sen
ator to bo elected. It is therefore re
garded as Important by those Interested
In the liquor question that they should
elect men of their own views.

DISPOSITION OF PRISONERS
IS PROBLEM TO PETROGRAD
800,000 Austrlfins Taken Is Report.
To Be Dlotrlbuted In Muscovy.
PBTBOailAD, Sept. 29.
Tho Busslan regards tho AUBtrian a
a gentlemanly opponent, with whom It Is
a plcasuro to fight.
Not that the Austrian does not fight
well. The struggle In Poland and Gallcla
has been as bloody as that on the Mouse.
and the Austrian, though beaten, Um
fought gallantly ..gainst overwhelming
numbers, better generals and better
troops.
The Austrian have never levied any
contribution on occupied towns, and hKvo
treated Busslan prisoner and wounded
with reasonable humanity.
It Is not easy to arrive nt a correct
estimate of the number of Austrian pris
oners Interned In various parts of Bus
sla. Tho Bourse Gozette. ono of the
leading evening newspapers of Petrograd,
-.- .i. o,r nt WX1.000. Among the
,lnrge contingent of prisoners at Kiev Is
the former Austrian wiuiiih,.-.
Lcmberg. ,,
The Austrian prisoners arriving In I e
trograd are a decidedly mixed crowd.
Tho first thing thnt strikes one about
them Is tho extraordinary number or
Slavs.
Kiev Is overflowing with prisoners. They
are-also streaming Into Petrograd. They
are becoming a national problem.
"What shall we do with our Austrian
prisoners?" Is the cry of the moment.
As a matter of fact, they arc being di
rected to Vologda nnd other remote In
ternal Governments of Muscovy, where
they will be as peaceful for the next
six months ns If they were snowed up
at the North Pole.
To give tho Austrian officer his due,
ho does not often, when captured pes
ter his captors for favors Some Aus
trian officers do not seem, however, to
take tho war seriously. Tho best Aus
trian troops are those from the Tyrol.
They havo hnd not quarrel with tho
Slnvs, and know nothing about them,
while the troops from eastern Austria
aro either half Slav themselves or are
easygoing and not serious.
This lack of seriousness constitutes the
great moral defect of the Austro-Hun-garlan
army. It explains the readiness
of the Austrluns to surrender nnd retreat.
