"She entered in the first act like some drab night-beaten little beetle, heart-crushed and hopeless, only to flash out later on gaudy, pretty wings, a fragile butterfly. The role of 'Bab bie' is written in poetic Irish fashion with epigrams abounding. Miss Booth made every line tell. Mr. Dwight, as the love-blinded old father, who can see no faults in his haby girl, was adorably testy In defending her rights. His rich, full voice, made all the rich er by his brogue, compelled attention. The play will go on tour late In Sep tember or early in October. Miss Booth will likely head the first com pany." The play is a dramatized version of the novel of the same name. Father Whalen before entering the priesthood was an actor and for years he has been intensely interested in the stxge. Several of the foremost theat rical managers in this country have been watching Father Whale'n's ef forts for some time and the success of "Babble" foreshadow greater suc cess to come. "Ili-Starred Babbie," is a story of | that misunderstood, little known sec-! tion of our country—the anthracite j coal regions. The author knows well i the people about whom he writes, and j most of them are well worth writing about. The heroine is a genuine crea tion —a girl of chameleon moods, but lovable, sweet and beautiful. Her charm somehow finds its way from the printed page to the heart of even the jaded reader. Tragedy is in the story, but comedy predominates. Bllile Clas.s Cornroast. —The young Men's Bible class of the Derry Street United Brethren Church, Fifteenth and Derry streets, will hold its annual corn roast to-morrow at "Brenneman's Camp," Lawnton. The Invitation card calls for men, their wives and sweet hearts. The committee expects 500 to be present. This Is the first time the men have left the ladies in on this feast, and a great treat is in store for them. The amusements will start at 4 o'clock. .Many at Campmceting.— Although the weather was unfavorable yester day there was a large attendance at the opening service of the United Brethren campmeetlng at Mt. Leba non, the Rev. S. B. Wengert, Lebanon, preaching. A number of preachers from Harrlsburg and its vicinity will be speakers during the camp. Among these will be the Rev. Dr. D. D. Lowry, presiding elder of the East Pennsyl vania Conference. Schools, Churches and Hotels Used as Hospitals By Associated Press London, Aug. 7.30 A. M.—Dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph Company from Rasel Switzerland, says: "Following a terrible battle at Muel hausen the hospital facilities proved absolutely inadequate to care for the I almost incredible number of wounded. Not only are all the hospitals filled, but schools, churches and hotels are occupied to their capacity. "The latest estimate place the Ger man losses at from eight to ten thou- I sand." FEIST FOB STIFF ID PIS, PliN OF EMPEROR WILLIAM Letter Found in German Officer's Pocket Was Invitation to Dinner Party Paris, Aug. 13.—Emperor William had planned to entertain his staff at dinner to-night—August 12—tn a lead ing Paris restaurant in celebration of "the occupation of the French capital by German troops." according to a letter found in possession of one of the Kaiser's officers, who is held as a pris oner. The Matin which to-day pub lished the story of the Kaiser's pro posed dinner party, indulged in this comment, "We are afraid the dinner will be cgld before they get here." During the temporary lull following the fighting at Liege and Muel hausen. the French Press 1» devoting much attention to Germany's alleged methods of warefare. Detailed nar ratives, supported by affidavits, de scribe mfurders on the frontier before war was declared. One of these re ports gives a graphic story of the burning of a Belgium village on Au gust 8 as revenge for the gallant re sistance of the citizens when the town was attacked by the Germans. Not content with firing houses," reads one account, "the invaders shot a farmer and otber citizens who were trying to extinguish the flames." French Must Be Shot According to Eclair, an order was given German soldiers in Alsace to "Consider any Frenchman captured in Alsace Lorraine after the first hour of mobilization as a traitor who must be Implacably shot." French public opinion is furiously indignant over the reports of such savagery, without menlkining the stories of outrages told by every French Consul stationed In Germany, Nevertheless, the French treatment of Germans who were un able to leave Paris before the outbreak of Mar was such as to reflect credit upon, the nation. A young Munich artist who was detained, was told that he would receive more attention at a police station. He was given trans portation to a place in western France, where Germans are being segregated until the close of the war. After spending the night before their departure at a big hall, refugees num bering several hundred marched to St. Lazare Station, escorted by troops to protect them against any possible at tack by a mob. Not even a display of hostility occurred, the crown seem ing to regard them with more pity than hatred. In Xml of Food It has been the custom of many persons to take food to the railroad station for departing soldiers. A small boy engaged In distributing sandwiches, doubtless by mistake, of fered some to refuges. Bystanders told him to desist because the refugees were enemies of France. The child replied: "Poor people, 1 feel sorry for them. I once got lost myself. It Is a dreadful thing to be unable to get home." He continued to distribute the sandwiches to the refugees and the crowd clapped. Matin to-day gives a schedule found on German prisoners showing little re sistance was expected from Belgium. Matin further emphasizes Germany's miscalculation by giving details of the heroic conduct on the battlefield of Belgians. Trooper Bogaerts, of the 3rd Lancers, who had already personally captured 14 prisoners and killed 3 Uhlans himself, was unwounded. Malin points out an instance of the bravery of Belgian soldiers that an- I other Belgian, alone, attacked three ' dismounted Uhlans, who dropped their i carbines. German prisoners immedi ately demand food, admitting that the commissary service of their army is very faulty. Belgium and France Police authorities announce that from to-day the subways and street cars will continue running until 9 p. m., instead of 7 p. in., which rule lias been enforced since mobilization ' began. Gabriel Hanotaux, the academician, in an editorial in Figaro headed "'Twill Be Hard," points out that the brunt of the struggle must be borne by France and Belgium. The former, he says, is now simply a huge circular fort liable to attack in many direct ions. "We must, therefore, for the present," the editorial continues, "con sider such operation as Altkirch and Muelhausen as merly brilliant sorties for the purpose of alarming and in convienclng our enemy, and not as a deliberate invasion of Germany. We must be patient and not rash; soon it will be the hour of the Slav onrush. J Nor is that all. Our most doubtable j is not a fighting nation, but really in i danger of famine since Germany has shut off her supplies by the ring of steel. Our course is clear! Let us renounce until later any idea of in vasion, and devote all our thoughts and our men to the protection, not only of our cruntry, but to the har vesting of our rich crops. France is the soul source from which the Ger mans may be able to revictual. Let us rely only on elan in attack, b. t patience is guarding against the dan gerouß wtllo-the-wisps like the Muel hausen triumph. 'Tis hard, but 'tis wisdom. We are certain to conquer If we know how to wait." Male Members of Czar's Family Will Go to War By Associated Press St. Petersburg, Aug. 13, via London, 5.10 A. M.—The following official communication has been issued: "On August 10 and 11 the enemy made careful reconnaissance on the frontiers of the governments of Kovno and Suwalkl.

Tank Steamer Leda Captured by British By Associated Press New York, Aug. 13.—Confirmation of the report that the German tank steamer Leda had been captured by a British cruiser was brought here to day by the steamer Bermudian from Bermuda. Officers of the Bermudian said that when they left Bermuda the Leda was the only prize then In port.

Mc- Devitt, chairman; Jacob Suffel anil William H. Fisher, secretary, arrived here last night to make an ejyunina tibn of the institution and ods. Particular attention was devot ed to the work that is done by State College in conjunction with several departments of the State government, and various suggestions were made by the college officials for eliminating duplication. The plans of the institu tion for new buildings and additions were carefully considered, and a thor ough examination of old buildings made by the commission. In addition to examining State Col lege the commission visited the New Western Penitentiary being erected HOW I CURED MY EYES THIS FREE PRESCRIPTION DID IT "My eyes were in a terrible state;; I ! could hardly stand it. They were red and inflamed; felt as though they had sand in tlietn. They would ache and burn dreadfully and caused incessant headaches. I could hardly read at all. After wearing my glasses my eyes felt strained and overworked. By chance I met a man whose eyes had bothered him the same way. He gave me the following prescription which he said had cured him and since had enabled him to discard his glasses." "If you wear glasses or have eye trouble similar to mine 1 advise you to have this formula filled at once. H. C. Kennedy or any druggist can fix it up for you. Here It is— -5 Grains Optona (1 tablet) 2 ounces Water. Allow to dissolve, then bathe the eyes by means of an eye cup three to four times dally—oftener If convenient. Just note how quickly your eyes will feel fine. It does not smart or burn, is ab solutely harmless and any druggist who knows the formula will tell you that you need not hesitate to use it.

The work in the new penitentiary is also progressing rapidly and satisfactorily, and the conduct of the prisoners who are aa ! sifulng in the work is a striking rec ommendation for Warden John Fran- Cles and the methods he employs."
