RUPP MURDER 111
: OPENS NEXT MOM
'lmportant Cases Listed For Cum
berland County Court, Includ
ing Nori Embezzlement
\
Special to The Telegraph
Carlisle, Pa., fept. 9.—-What is be
lieved will be the largest session of
criminal court which has occurred
since Judge W. F, Sadler hegnn his
term of office will open here on Mon
day. The Hupp murder trial and the
case of S. J. Nori, former chief clerk
at the Indian School, charged with
embezzlement of funds belonging to
students, by Moses Friedman, former
head of the institution, are the ones
that attract the most attention.
District Attorney Alexander said to
day that he expected that there would
be over thirty cases up for trial.
Since the day when he was arrested,
charged with killing John M. Hupp
at his home near Mechanicsburg, Mux
Morgana, alias Bent, alias Stine, • a
former Harrisburg huckster, has made
no comment relative to the occurrence
but sticks to his iirst plea of self de
fense. W. A. Zerby and Edwin K.
Barnitz, two members of the local
har and practicing also in Harrisburg,
have been detailed by the court to
defend the Harrisburg man. District
Attorney Alexander together with sev
eral former district attorneys, will be
on the side of the Commonwealth.
The Nori case divides interest with
the other
much of the testimony connected with
the investigation of the school here
■will be brought up. It is probable
that an effort will be made to take
the case to a United States court.

Greatest Event
in Woman's Life
All human experience looks to
motherhood as the wonder of wonders.
The patience, the fortitude, the subllma
faith during the period of expectancy are
second only to the mother love bestowed
upon the most helpless but most marvel
ous creation—a bob;-.
Women are quick to learn from each
other those helpful agencies that aid to
comfort, that conserve their nervous
energy and yet aio perfectly safe to use
and among these they recommend
"Mother's Friend."
It is entirely an external application
designed to lubricate the broad, flat
muscles and skin that protect the
abdomen. It has been in favorable use
for nearly half a century and Is known
to mothers in almost every settled com
munity In the United States who highly
recommend it. I'ou will find it on salo
In drug stores. "Mother's Friend" is
utterly harmless, contains no deadening
drugs and yet its influence In thg skin
and muscles beneath as also upon the
network of nerves beneath the skin Is
very beneficial, very soothing and a
wonderful help. The muscles expand
naturally and are not subjected to unnec
essary surface strain and pain.
Get a bottle of "Mother's Friend" to
day at any arug store and write to us
for our Instructive little book to mothers.

German Eagerness May
Explain Why They Were
Forced From Paris Gates
Fly Associated I'rtss
Paris, Sept. 9. 6: 55 A. M. Tho
German's progress seems to have been
too rapid and too precipitate in its eag
erness to get to the gates of Paris, for
they arrived out of breath and to all
appearances out of Vinumnitlon, which
may explain why they did not pursue
their original plan.
All prisoners, of whom 300 or more
arrived In Paris yesterday, appeared
tagged and harrassed and tho spirit of
the army seems to be everything that Is
different from the conquerors, who
pushed back the army of defense from
the frontier and reached the gates of
the capital in ten days.
Whether they hoped to gain time by
a tangent movement away from Paris
or, as some military critics suppose,
aimed to effect a Junction with the
army of the Crown Prince, which was to
come from the direction of Longwy,
the developments of the last four days
prove that It was a grave error.
The army, already weakened by
forced marches, constant lighting en
route, and now further enfeebled by
the engagements of the last four days,
Is not, in the opinion of experts, pre
pared for such a big enterprise as the
siege of Paris, even if it retrieve Its
fortunes In the battle now in progress.
The only hope of the Germans, there
fore, lies in the armies on the north
eastern frontier cominc: to the rescue
and this hope now seems too long de
ferred.

Movement Believed to
Be Definite Retirement
By Associated . ress
London, Sept. 9. 3:12 A. M. The
correspondent of the Chronicle at the
front in France, telegraph as follows:
"The tables arc turned. The right
wing of the Germany army, which was
considerably battered by tho heavy
lighting of the last two days, is con
tinuing its retrograde movement. It is
falling back with the British army fast.
"Everything points to the movement
I being a definite retirement, rather than
j a temporary retreat. The greater part
of the German force holding Amiens
withdrew yesterday morning and the
German wounded were rushed to Arras.
When I left the neighborhood of Ami
ens, at noon, a small French force was
waiting in the« vicinity to re-occupy
Amiens as soon as the last German sol
dier had withdrawn, which was expect
ed Tuesday night.
"The allies' left wing is giving the
retiring enemy no respite, the British
cavalry being especially active. The al
lies are making every effort to detach
tho harrowed German right wing from
the main body and annihilate It.
"In an effort to prevent this, the Ger
man commander seems to be directing
the rearward march upon Cambral and
Tournal, evidently with the intention
of attempting to repass the Belgian
border east of Lille.
"Each instant the rearward progress
nf the Germans Is gaining momentum.
Is it the beginning of the end?"

of saving the life of Lee McClung, for
mer United States Treasurer, who is
critically ill of typhoid fever. Me-
Clung was United States Treasurer
during a part of the Taft Administra

In 1892, he was one of the college's
leading football players. He later be

Mr. McClung is very well known in
this city and has been a frequent vis
itor here. He was an All-American
halfback on the famous Yale team of
which Heffiefinger, Butterworth and
Vance C. McCormiek played. Mr. Mc-
Clung is a gfeat favorite incidentally
among Yale and other college men
because of the keen interest he has re
tained in athletics. While at Yale he
played baseball, too, and on frequent
visits to this city he demonstrated
how little he had forgotten of that
game when he officiated behind the
home-plate for the Harrisburg Coun
try Club team.

Buy Lumber
It's no easy matter
to select the kind of
lumber that will wear
longest.
Some lumber is high
priced, but you don't have
to specify ''clear''
■ throughout your build
ing.
There's more than one
1 grade of lumber and many
I kindls of wood.
What you need is a
[ suggestion here and there
from some one who
knows lumber.
We can easily tell you
if No. 1, 2 or 3 quality
will suit and the kind of
wood to buy.
