Bogus Subscriptions
Two noted Perry county jurists, one
on the bench, the other a former

fendant who pleaded guilty to selling
bogus subscriptions to magazines in
order to earn enough to pay his way
through college. The youth told a
real hard luck story to Judge W. M.
Seibert, Perry county, specially pre
siding at a brief session of Dauphin
county sentence court; ex-Judge
James W. Shull, his counsel, pleaded
for him.
The youth, it appears, is well known
and even popular in New Bloonifleld,
but his desire to study at the Univer

the legal boundaries to such an ex
tent as to dispose of bogus subscrip

young man had provided for his col

in the streets of New Blooijifield and
had stopped to chat with him. Then
he suspended sentence.

LONDON HOPE
WAR'S OUTCOME; BIG
RUSH TO JOIN ARMY
By Associated Press
London. Sept. 3, 1.50 P. M.—The
decision of the French government to
withdraw from Paris, while proving
a momentary shock to the man in tlie
street, is regarded both by politicians
and strategists here as being as wise
as it is painful.
To retain Paris as a center of the
government would, it is held, be In
compatible with the supreme necessi
ties of France at the present moment.
These are to keep the government free
to act and to keep the army an un
broken force which neither can be
captured in detail nor shut up in the
fortresses.
A proclamation by the French gov
ernment describes the move as precau
tionary and sets forth that an attack
on Paris in the near future is not con
sidered probable.
No data U|M>II which to base a judg
ment of the general situation over tlie
wide-flung battle line in France is
available.

London, Sept 3.—Despite their colossal losses during the past week's
fight, the great Russian army, headed by Grand Duke Nicholas, is pushing
steadily onward in its march to Berlin. The Russians have been forced to

heavier as they near the German capital. The Russian armv chiefs in of

Cavalry Rides Through
Heavy Fire to Silence
Battery of German Guns
By Associated Press
London, Sept. 3, 3.40 a. b. —» The
Daily Mail's correspondent behind the
British lines described the charge of
the Ninth Lancers, which occurred at
an unnamed spot during the recent
series of tactical retreats, as a second
Balakalva. He says:
"Terrible havoc has been caused in
our ranks by shells from a battery
of eleven German guns posted Inside a
forests near the Belgian frontier.
' "It seemed impossible to silence
their fire until the Ninth Lancers made
their attempt; riding straight at the
guns after debouching into the open
and charging under a hail of melinite
and lyddite.
"I have not been able to get reliable
figures as to the distance they rode,
but they reached their goal. Nothing
could stop them. They reached the
guns, killed the gunners and put the
guns out of action. Then, like their
prototypes of Balakalva, they rode
back.
"Notable bayonet charges were
made at (name deleted) on
Wednesday last. Several British in
fantry regiments occupied an exposed
position around which the Germans
gradually circled, drawing the noose
closer and closer.
"The Britishers decided to cut their
way through the cordon. So the men
went at it, yelling and shouting and
got through, although the German ar
tillery mowed them down frightfully.
"The German machine guns have
been tremendously effective in all en
gagements thus far. Men who saw the
South African war say the hottest fir
ing there was childish compared with
what the British troops have under
gone since their arrival in France. So
far as I can learn thus far the Ger
mans have lost twenty-six of these
guns."

Russians Coniinue
Success in Austria
By Associated Press
Lcndon, Sept. 3, 3.12 a. m. The
Petrograd (St. Petersburg) corre-1
spondent of the Post sends the follow- '
ing on the operations on the Russian;
frontier:
"Russia is scoring success after,
success against Austria and is mo
mentarily expecting news of a signal i
victory.
"The commander-in-chief on the,
Austrian front apparently plans to I
drive in strongly with one army from
the east, starting from the Russian |
provinces adjoining Rumania, and in,
the meantime merely aims to restrain
the Austrian advances into the Polish
provinces, thus keeping Austria on thej
alert along the lines of two to three I
hundred miles.
"While pushing temporary advances
in South Poland, the Russians were
forcing their way westward from
Podolia and Bessarabia upon Lem
herg. When the Austiians finally real
ized the plans they attempted to turn I
the Russian left flank near the junc-1
tion of the Gnita Lipa river with the I
Dniester, and a sanguinary fight took
place, there two days ago. The Aus
trians were signally defeated, losing
5,000 killed and many prisoners, in
cluding one general, guns, a stand
ard and quantities of supplies."
British Beginning to
Inflict Heavy Losses
on German Invaders
By Associated Press
London, Sept. 3, 11 a m. The
Chr<stiicle's correspondent at the
front, writing from an unnamed town
in the department of Somme, Tues
day. says:
"The superiority of the British ar
tillery, coupled with the pluck of the
British infantry, is rapidly telling on
the German attackers. A few more
days such as Sunday and Monday and
the German army invading northern
France will have destroyed itself com- j
pletely.
• "No army that ever existed could
endure and survive the terrible losses
sustained by the Germans in the last
few days. Whole divisions of infant
ry have been blotted out and shat- j
tered, and the German ranks are be
ginning to show demoralization.
"In the latest assault the Germans
manifested unmistakable signs of un
steadiness, were seen to waver and
frequently to break and flee in con
fusion. As a result of his prolonged
battle the German line has advanced a
few miles, but has not gained any
marked or decided advantage."
"Never Mind Drill; Teach
Them How to Shoot"
Special to The Telegraph
London, Sept. 3.—"Never mind
whether they know anything about
drill. It does't matter if they don't
know the right from the left. Teach
them how to shoot and do it quickly."
These are instructions which Lord
Kttchner has given to the officers who
are engaged in the work of getting hit. j
second armv into shjpe.
They throw a strong light on the I
situation. It is a race against time.
Speed In fitting out the second army
is all essential.
From the first it has been evident
that Lord Kitchener realized the gi
gantic character of the work Great
Britain will be called upon to do. The
events of the last two weeks have to
some extent brought the force of his
conviction home to the thoughtful sec
tion of the British public. The gen
eral public, however, still remains
strangely and astonishingly apathetic.
These last few days, since the real na
ture of the situation In France is un
derstood, have seen an Increased
