Hundreds of farmers, especially thoso

the backwoods districts, which nro nl

Oamo is reported picnuiui in most
parts of the county. Some ring-necked
pheasants and a few quail tire to bo
found In tho tlmberland of tho Barren

McCONNELSBURG, Pa., Nov. 2.
Sportsmen here nro not enthused over the
opening of the quail season today. This
frame has not been so scarce in years as
Is now reported. Deep snows and contin-
, lied cold last winter caused thousands of
quail to perish, and only a few scattered
flocks have been seen.
Squirrels were reported plentiful for a

WOMAN MAY HAVE STOLEN
TWO COMMUNION SERVICES
Police nave No Clue to Thtef In
Wilmington Churches.
WILMINGTON. Del, Nov. 2.-DI.1 n
woman steal tho communion services from
St. John's nnd St. Andrew's Kplscopnl
churches yesterday? This Is the question
some ofllclnls of the churches nro asking.
The only theory that a woman did the
stealing Is that It would have been easier
for a woman to conceal the communion
vessels about her clothing than it man.
Tho police have no clues to tho Identity
of tho thieves.
The thefts took place between early and
late celebrations of the Holy Communion,
and In both instances the services were
taken from the credence tables nl tho
side Of the altar. At St. Andrew's Church
the tankard nnd paten were taken and at
St. John's Church the chalices, p.ttcn and
Uie tray disappeared.
The service nt St. John's Church was
presented In memory ot Alexis t. du Pont,
founder of the church, who was killed In
n powder mill explosion.
lilshop Frederick J. Kinsman, of the
Lplscopal Dloceco of Delaware, preached
the sermon nt St. John's Church yester
day on tho sixth anniversary of his llrst
sermon ns Hlshop of tills diocese. Tho
Bishop wn3 compelled to send to his
home, at lllshnpstead. fur a communion
service so he tnlcht celebrate Holy Communion.
"IRV" COBB, HOME
FROM WAR, WEARS
A WRIST WATCH
Humorist Talks Nonchalant
ly of "Ronitz" (Rheims)
and Other Places Average
Paducah Citizen Cannot
Pronounce.
Irvln Cobb, war correspondent for tho
Saturday Evening Post, whu went look
ing for war In n taxlcab, found the war
and lost the taxi, IiIh overcoat and some
woiKht. reached Philadelphia today. He
arrived "back home" from Europe last
Saturday on tho Lusltanla.
In addition to a fine coat of tan. Mr.
Cobb brought back from war-rldden Eu
rope a list of proper pronunciations. His
tongue hesitates nt nothing, but ho wns
not asked to pronounce Przomysl.
"I am the only man from Paducah,
Ky" said Mr. Cobb, "who wears a
wrist watch and can pronounce Rontz."
"Rontz," he explained, Is Rhclms. The
story of how Mr. Cobb and a party of
American war correspondents, including
John T. McCutcheon. ami James O'Don
nell Rennet, of tho Chicago Tribune, set
out from Antwerp In a tnxlcnb. has been
told in the humoriisfs Inimitable way In
the Saturday Evening Post. In tho cur
rent issue of that publication ho told of
reaching Alx-Iu-Chupellc.
Since that time Cobb, McCutcheon. Ben
nett and Robert J. Thompson, United
Mutes Consul at Alx-la-Chapelle, es
corted by Captain Alfred Monnesman, of
the German army, have been to the actual
firing line, on tho German side, and have
had opportunity to witness the German
war machine in action.
The party- was taken to France nnd
Belgium, through special passports Issued
by the Kaiser, and had opportunity to
witness the artillery duel along tho River
Alsnc. From there Mr. Cobb went to
Antwerp and thenco to England. Ho
spent about 10 days at London and then
sailed for home.
According to Mr. Cobb, nil the nations
of Europe engaged In the wnr are confi
dent except Belgium. That llttlo country
Is too busy fighting to express opinions.
So far It has suffered most In the war.
LONDONERS ARE TRANQUIL.
London Is dark and gloomy nt night.
Mr. Cobb sayc, lights being extinguished
because of tho fear of Zeppelin raids,
but the people of tho city aro apparently
as tranquil as those of Philadelphia. They
expect to win and do not hesltato to
say so.
Tho ruin wrought nt Louvaln, accord
ing to the correspondent, has not been
overestimated. Tho entire city has not
been destroyed, the Germans having
trained their big guns on the principal
streets and buildings. About one-fifth of
the total area of the city has been ruined,
but this Is the most valuable section.
When the war started Cobb was fishing
In Canada. He left this country August
7 and eight days later wns seeking nctlon
In a taxlcab. He said today the taxlcab
to him Is one of the mysteries ot the
war. Although ho returned to Antwerp
he failed to find It.
Much of the weight he lost, which was
not considerable was due to toting huge
quantities of gold about Europe, Cobb
declared today.
Mr. Cobb explained that the statement
to which his name and those of other
American war correspondents was signed,
sent out more than a month ugo and de
claring the signers had witnessed no
atrocities by the Germans, was made at
Alx La Chappelle because those who
signed It thought the Germans had not
been getting fair treatment In stories of
the conflict, ..e said they were not un
der stress when the statement was made.
The German system of discipline, ac
cording to the humorist, Is applied to
German soldiers with the same severity
as to non-combatants whom the Germans
accuse of sniping. The soldier breaking
a rule has no more chance than the
sniper, he declared. He cannot use "pull"
of any kind to save himself.
After leaving Alx La Chappelle as the
guest of the German army, Cobb and his
companions had no more trouble about
getting plenty to eat. The correspondents.
In the words of Cobb, "ate with the
generals,"
He adijed that German food becomes
tiresome when one sets too mueh of It,
but otherwise the correspondents had no
objection to make.

FIREMEN DEFEND MEN
Declare Neither Legg Nor Sweeny
Killed Man nt Bridgeton.
WILMINGTON. Del.. Nov. 1. Older
members of the Fame Hose Fire Com
pany declare neither Hugh Sweeny nor
Lewis II. Legg was responsible for the
death of a man named Davis, who was
killed at a firemen's picnic at Bridgeton,
N. J J2 venrs ago.
All the firemen who witnessed the fight,
It Is declared, were summoned ns wit
nesses, and the fact that Legg was not
one of them proves his Innocence.
Men who aro trying to keep Sweeny off
the voting list because he served time for
the killing recall that years after tho
New Jersey affair he pleaded guilty to
striking Thomas Martin, of New Castle,
nn the head with a brick. Eor this he
was fined. Martin Is a mental wreck
ber.iuse of the blow.
Friends of Sweeny say In recent years
ho has led a respectable life, and the
question of his right to vote was settled
n long time ago, when he wns clecttd
chief engineer of the Fire Department.
ADMIRAL O'NEILL CALLS
CARY'S CHARGE FALSEHOOD
Resents Accusation That Ho Deceived
Nnvy Department.
WASHINGTON, Nov 2.-Rear Admiral
Charles O'Neill, V, S. N retired, In a
statement today denied chnrges recently
mndo against him In the House by Rep
resentative Cary. of Wisconsin. He says:
"Tho allegations of Representative
Cary, 'that when I was tho chief of the
Bureau of Ordnance of tho Navy De
partment I deceived the Secretary on
tho effect of high explosives,' nnd 'that
1 attempted to mislead our Government
even in time of war with Spain nnd tho
Philippines,' aro absolutely false.
"Ills Insinuation that I, with other
chiefs of ordnance, 'favored and bene
llted the armor manufacturers,' Is an
nudnclous falsehood, as untrue as It Is
Insulting, and I challenge Mr. Cary to
make good any of his allegations."
It is said Representative Cary's charges
wero based on Admiral O'Neill's adverse
report on tests of the Gathmann 18-inch
gun, which hurled high explosives, off
Sandy Hook, from 1S9S to 1501. Tho Ad
miral adds that he was sustained In the
leport by u Joint army and navy board
which witnessed later tests, and advised
against Its adoption by the United States.
MOSLEA1S OF INDIA
STAND BY BRITAIN
Prayers for the Allies Against Tur
key's Moves.
SIMLA, India, Nov. 2.
The announcement of the unfriendly
attitude of Turkey toward the Allies was
made throughout India today In an official
communication wherein the Viceroy of
India deplores "tho endeavor of a chau
vinUtlc element to drive Turkey Into a
war with Great Britain for the benefit of
Germany and Austria."
The reception which the announcement
received In the outlying districts will not
be known for some days, but responsible
leaders of the Mohammedan community
already are holding meetings in support
of Great Britain, while the mosques are
organizing prayers for the success of the
British arms. The Mullahs are preaching
homilies urging Turkey either to maintain
a neutrality or side with the Allies.

Continued from Pnire One
massed on the Caucasus border and 300.000
more ate waiting at Beirut, Jaffa and
other points for shipment to the Slnnl
peninsula. The Egyptian portB nre said
to be well guarded by French and British
warships. Circulars announcing tho mo
bilization of the Greek nrmy have been
received by foreign Consuls.
News of the molilllantlon of the Grcelt
ntmv was regarded ns one of the most
Important developments arising from
Turkey's ndyent Into the wnr. It Is be
lieved that the Greek navy has already
been secretly mobilized.
A rigid censorship Is In effect on newn
from the East. This Is Relieved to bo
duo to plans on the part of the Franco-
British fleet to attack the forts of the
Dardanelles. Reports reaching hero from
Italian rourccs Indicate that tho heavy
battleships, battle cruisers and armed
cruisers of I lie fleets which hnvo been
bombarding Cnttaro, at the mouth ot tho
Adriatic, steamed away from there Sat
urday In an easterly direction. It Is be
lieved they have proceeded to the naval
base tendered nt the outbreak of the
war by Greece, from which point they
will he within striking distance ot tho
Dardanelles.
The assertion Is made here that the
Turks can do little damage In nn Invasion
of Fgypl. Karl Kitchener has taken
every precaution, lie has liocti convinced
from the outset of the wnr that Cler
mnny would Involve Turkey and has
taken measures accordingly. There Is
not a foot of the Suez Canal which Is
not guarded by British troops.
Every stranger who has landed In
Kgypt slnco Inception ot the wnr has
been subject to the closest espionage.
Austrian nnd German steamships and
sailing craft have been taken as prizes
of 'nr.
THREAT OF HOLY WAR.
It Is further Insisted hero that, cen
though the Sultan carries out his tin eat
as recorded by way ot Berlin nnd de
clares a holy war, the Egyptian troops
ivlll remain loyal. Tho separation be
tween church nnd stntc, so far as the
Mohammedans arc concerned, hns been
greatly emphasized In tho last few years
and the Sultnn'B edicts nro no longer ac
cepted without question.
It Is reported here that a new Turkish
Cabinet Is being formed which will be.
mnde up entirely of Young Turks and
which will eliminate the few Ministers
who have opposed war. Enver Bey will
rcmnln at his post ns War Minister, but
the now Cabinet will bo picked by Gen
eral l.emnn von Sanders, tho German
dictator, who Is now In control. It wns
due entirely to Von Sanders' Infiuencei
that Turkey was lined up on the side of
tile Germans.
TURK SHELLS PLAYED
HAVOC IN ODESSA PORT
French Steamship Excellent Target.
Invader Flew Russian Flag.
LONDON, Nov. 2. A dispatch to the
Times from Pctrogrnd says:
"An Odessa correspondent furnishes ad
ditional details of the Turkish attack on
that town. The French steamship Portu
gal afforded an excellent target for the
enemy's torpedo boat, which suddenly
fired four times Into the port side of tho
Portugal, killing the stewardess nnd
baker and making four holes above tho
water line. Tho shelling of tho vessels
was effected with unusual rapidity.
"Tho hostile torpedo boat seemingly
passed without being molested Into Kn
botazhny Harbor, where lay tho Russian
gunboat Kubanetz. The torpedo boat
opened fire simultaneously from both
sides on the gunboat and other shipping.
The wooden superstructure of the gun
boat and bridge were carried away and a
hole was mado above the water line.
"Two torpedoes wero discharged at the
steamship Vitlaz. A shell, fired at the
stonmcr Vampoa, pierced her hull near
the engine room nnd exploded.
"Harbor Launch No. 2, thinking that
some accident hnd occurred to the tor
pedo boat, of whoso Identity It apparently
wns Ignorant, approached, whereupon a
hand grenade wns hurled by the enemy,
killing a Russian seaman. Two shells fell
on n warehouse, damaging the roof.
"The fire from tho Kupanetz compelled
tho torpedo boat to withdraw, nftor fruit
lessly dipcharging a final torpedo. The
torpedo boat did not fire while departing,
nnd It Is surmised that she was badly
Injured.
"The Turkish cruiser Hamtdleh, which
bombarded the Russian port of Novor
ossysk, on the Black Sea, last Thursday,
flew tha Russian flag as she approached
the city, according to the Petrograd cor
respondent of Router's Telegram Com
pany. "Tho cruiser fired M0 shells during a
three hours' bombardment. Tho fire wns
directed mostly at tho oil tanks, mer
chantmen and grain elevntors. The roll
ing stock on the railway was removed In
time to pi event It being damaged.
"Tho Turks fired 1C0 shells In their
bombardment of Thcodosla, which also
took place on Thursday."

100 guns, while elaborate systems of
hnrbed wire entanglements nnd subtcr
ranenn mines have Impeded tho advance

gallantry of Meyer Wnldcck, the German
Governor of Klno-ChaU, no demand for

Firemen Hampered Fighting Blazing
Underbrush.
Residents of Frnnkford had a miniature
reproduction of a forest lire when a blaze
raged for several hours on the outskirts
of the section yesterday. The fire was
caused by the burning of underbrush nt

flames were hampered In their work by
the absence of water In the vicinity, nnd
they fought the blaze by smothering It
with brooms nnd dirt. James Moronoy
saved 10o shocks of corn In nn adjoin
ing field by plowing up small breast
works. KILLED LISTENING TO MUSIC

Re-Elect
CONGRESSMAN
We take pleasure in recommending the Honor
able J. Washington Logue to the voters of the Sixth
Congressional District for re-election. He has served
the interests of his district and of the whole city in a
broad and non-partisan spirit with untiring energy
and distinguished success.
Recognizing the practical certainty that the Fed
eral Administration will be Democratic for two years
we realize that under these circumstances a Demo
cratic Congressman such as Mr. Logue has been has
greater opportunities for useful service for district
and State than would be possible to a Republican
member.

BRITAIN DEFIANTLY
ORDERS KROONLAND
TO THE PRIZE COURT
Fight Expected Over Issue
Whether England Has
Right to Question Ultimate
Destination of Cargoes.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2. Defying the
protost of tho United States, tho British
Government hns ordered the American
liner Kroonland before a Prlzo Court.
This news enmo yestcrdny In n cable
gram from the American Consul at
Gibraltar,
TWs Is the first time that tho British
Government has persisted In Its case
against an American vessel orTmrgo after
tho United States protested to London
ngalnst tho seizure. Slnco In Its protest
the State Department set forth fully Its
reasons for demanding tho release ot tho
Kroonland and this protest haa apparently
been Ignored, It Is ovldent that Great
Drltaln purposes to mako a. moro deter
mined fight In this caso than ever before.
' It Is believed hero that Great Britain
must have reason this tlmo to suspect thnt
tho Kroonland's cargo of copper nnd oil,
which wns consigned to Naples, tvas ul
timately destined for Germany. In that
case the fight over tho Kroonland will
bring forth the long-expected Issuo be
tween Great Britain nnd tho United
States ns to whether It Is Great Britain's
right to question tho ultimate destination
of American cargoes or whether she must
permit such cargoes to enter neutral
countries unrcstrlctod and then take up
with such neutral country tho question
of keeping tho material out of Germany.
Tho Kroonland carried 1100 tons of cop
per and 300 barrels of oil.
