W WILL PUT Ml
END TO MONARCHIES
So Declares Oscar S. Straus, the
"Unofficial American Ambas
sador" in London
London, AUK- 10. —Oscar S. Straus,
whom the thousands of stranded
Americans In London are calling "The
unofficial American Ambassador," has
sent the following message to the
American Pebple:
"What has happened in the last six
days, and what is happening to-day, is
less important than the final outcome
of it all. In my opinion the great
blessing that will result from this
titanic world clash will be the obliter
ation of every monarchy in Europe.
I do not believe their ate any
men living who can foresee what
this clash of armies between the
leading nations of Europe may lead
to, but in the loss of human life, in
suffering and destruction of property
and in economic derangement, it must
dwarf Into insignificance the cost of
teh Napoleonic Wars.
"This is no mere clash between Ger
many and the allies. It is not even a
war between four or five world pow
ers. Even if one or two main beli
gerents should be crushed that will
not end the war, but simply be light
ing new fires of war with more lurid
glare.
"Who doubts but that the high
handed and arbitrary attitude of Ger
many will force Italy to become a
belligerent, allied with Great Britain,
France and Russia? Nobody can who
understands the situation.
"This itself opens one of the gravest
Issues of the entire war. It is per
haps the most unfortunate phase of
the entire situation—this alliance be
tween the two advanced parliamentary
governments with Russia a medieval
autocracy.
"The responsibility rests upon Eng
land and France to compell Russia to
modernize her govermental system,
nnd that right away. Upon them rests
the burden of forcing Russia to give
equal- rights to all her subjects.
Otherwise the alliance, instead of
proving a bulwark of strength, will be
come a burden. How can Russia ex
pect the people she has systematically
oppressed and denied all civil rights to
be patriotic?
"The reason the citizens of France
and the subjects of Great Britain,
without respect to class or creed, have
risen to the highest point of patriot
ism is because those governments
have been and are just to all.
"Unless Russia is made to see, unless
she accords now at once full rights to
those whose patriotism she relies on,
she will have to contend with re
volution within.
"I have spoken to a number of
statesmen and other prominent men
here and in France and expressing
thWr views, I have no doubt France
and England fully appreciate the
gravity of this responsibility.
"They will use their influence to
this end aside from all other reasons
for the sake of having a strong ally
that will measure up to the standard
of civilized nations."
Thieves Bind and Gag
Woman and Rob House
Special to The Telegraph
Columbia, Pa., Aug. 10.—Mrs. Jo
seph Aleisinger, while seated in her
home in South Front street, was as
saulted by two strangers, who enter
ed unobserved as the woman was
reading a newspaper. They attacked
her before she was able to make an
outcry and bound her hands and feet
and stuffed a gag in her mouth. Then
the men ransacked the house and un
der a mattress in an upstairs bedroom
found $6.75, which they took and
then made their escape. The attack
was made after 10 o'clock on Friday
night rnd it was 11 o'clock ' efore the
woman could release her feet, and
make her way to a hotel at the corner
near her home and summon assist
ance. Chief Campbell and a night
watchman responded promptly, but
the strangers had made good their es
cape.
MJCII.I.K I.OVK, AT THE PA I. ACE
When Lucille learned that Loubeque
was to meet Lieutenant Hadley at his
( Loubeque's) home, she at once has
tened to the rendezvous herself. As she
was the lirst to arrive, she took a look
through the house of so many terrors.
When she beheld a picture of Loubeque
upon the wall, Lucille removed the pic
ture and behind it found a switchboard.
No sooner than she has mastered the
system of switches than Lieutenant
Hadley arrived. In an instant she laid
her plan of action. She informed Had
ley that Loubeque was not there, but
that he would leave on the Golden State
Limited that night. Hadley was satis
tied and left.
A few moments later Loubeque ar
rived to keep Ills appointment with
Hadle.v. Instead of Hadley lie found
Lucille. As Loubeque leaned against
the desk Lucille pressed the proper
button and Loubeque fell through the
floor with the heavy desk upon him.
Lucille crept into the cellar and re
moved the documents from his inside
pocket. An instant later Loubeque re
covered and ran after the girl, but he
was just one moment too late. She
ran to the mouth of the secret tunnel,
and just before Loubeque grasped her
in his arms she closed down and locked
the iron gate. Lucille rushed to the
railroad station and caught the outgo
ing train. Loubeque also arrived, but
he was too late. L.ucille was gone for
ever with the papers. Returning to
his home, Loubeque told Gibson that
Lucille was on her way to Washington
with the documents, but Gibson
thought the spy was lying to him. Each
took a sword, and they decided to set
tle the argument with blood.
Lucille delivered the documents to
the Secretary of War at Washington,
and thus saved the name of her father
and of her sweetheart. Lieutenant Gib
son. Gibson arrived while Lucille was
yet with the Secretary. He fell at
Lucille's feet and begged her forgive
ness for misjudging her, and she was
only too willing to re-establish him in
her heart. That night Loubeque wrote
in his diary:
"My debt of hate toward Sumpter
Love is canceled, for no hate can out
live love in the man who has known
Lucille."
ljoubeque loved Lucille.—Advertise
ment.
THE RIGHT WAY TO STAND
In the August Woman's Home Com
panion William J. Comic, writing an
article entitled "What Every Girl
Should know," tells the right way to
stand, sleep and walk. Following is
his advice as to standing:
"In the correct standing position
the chost. is held high and thrown
out strongly, the abdomen drawn in,
the chin in toward the chest, with the
body held direct and leaning slightly
forward. The weight of the body is
equally distributed upon both feet,
either with one foot in advance of the
other as in the military 'at rest' or
with heels together, as In figure. In
the military carriage the body is bent
farther forward than in the ordinary
walking posture. The cadet gets his
erect posture, not so much by the
physical exercise he takes as by con
stantly being reminded by his officers
that he must hold his body erect.
"There are three ways to tell
whether you are carrying yourself
properly. Stand with the back to a
wall which has a smooth surface, with
the head, shoulders, hips and heels
touching the wall; try to maintain this
position at all times.
