Republican candidate for Governor, is getting down among the plain people again in this Industrial community and will spend all day going the rounds of the industrial towns. The visit is a repetition of what he did here at the time of the State committee meeting and It is re markable the way the people are tak ing to the educator. He talks as though he was glad to see them just PS he did when he came to speak at educational meetings. Citing "the return of Christ to Ju dea, his home town and his home peo ple," and adding that "the first mo ment In his life when under the law of the people he could do so. he had made his choice and took his stand," Dr. Brumbaugh, occupying the pulpit of the Dunkard Church in Pittsburgh yesterday, preached a sermon in which many in the audience felt they detect ed a portentlous reference. The Philadelphia educator knew more than half the congregation by name or family connections or activi ties back in the Juniata Valley, met XV. H. Reed, a Pittsburgh Dunkard, the man who taught him his "A B C's" In Marklesburg, Huntingdon county, and was welcomed by the pastor, the Rev. T. R. Coffman. a lifelong friend of Juniata Valley days. He took as his text "And he came to Nazareth, ■where he had been brought up; and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the Sabbath Day, and stood up for to read." On Saturday Dr. Brumbaugh fairly hand-shaked his way into the warm regard of the people of the Beaver Valley, in a whirlwind tour beginning at Pittsburgh and concluding in a pub lic reception which drew thousands to the auditorium of Carnegie Library In Beaver Falls. At every stop, Ait bridge, Economy, Leetsdale, Baden. Beaver, Bridgewater, the oldest town in Beaver county; Rochester. Coraopo lis. New Brighton and Beaver Falls, he met genuine ovations, and was able always through a homely line of ques tioning. already a remarked-about fea ture of his campaign, to re-establish old relationship with several in the crowds running from a few persons to several hundred that greeted him. Dr. Brumbaugh, Frank B. McClain, nominee for Lieutenant-Governor, and Henry Houck, candidate for Secretary of Internal Affairs, and others will open the Washington county Repub lican campaign Tuesday evening.

Baker, of Wash ington, will be among those who will attend. Reports from all over the district indicate a big majority for ex-Lieu tenant-Governor Brown in his canvass for Congress. A Hazleton dispatch has this to say about the candidate: "The visit of Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh, of Phila delphia, Republican candidate for gov ernor, to the city this week brought together all of the prominent party workers of the Hazleton district and was the opening gun of the local cam paign. The enthusiasm with which the nominee was received and the at tendance at the meeting was a re minder of the oldtime rallies of years gone by when a political gathering was always the occasion for a great outpouring of citizens from the entire Lehigh coal field."

CASTORIA For Infants and Children In Um For Over 30 Years MONDAY EVENING. RELEASE "SMEAR!" | FROM SAND BANKS: Great Natural Swimming Pool Will Again Be Opened Up in the River By removing the big rocks from the river bed around the mouth of the filter Intake pipe. City Commissioner Harry F. Bowman, superintendent of public safety. Is not only providing a splendid channel for canoes and mo torboats but Is also clearing out a great natural swimming pool. And this is being brought about by releasing "Smeary" from the clutches of the ever-rising banks and bars of sand. "Smeary" as the great rock to the north and west of the island point has been known for years, has long been a popular diving rock for Har risburg's small boys—and large ones, too. Of late years, however, it has lost its popularity because of the en croaching sand. Currents sweeping around the points of the upper islands brought down heaps of sand which collected around the rocks to the north of the island because the flow of the water had been broken by the wall of rock around the filtration in take pipe. These rocks are now being blasted loose under the direction of Commissioner Bowman, primarily for the purpose of providing a free run of the current past the mouth of the intake. Sand had been accumulating at the mouth of the intake because the flow of the sand-carrying current had been interrupted and the superin tendent of public safety discovered that prompt action had to be taken to prevent the closing of the intake. For the last couple of weeks "Mayor" Harry J. Berrier has been busy with his fleet and blasting gangs tearing out the rocks. Before an other fortnight rolls around Mr. Ber rier expects to have the river from the intake to the northern end of the island poetically free of rocks. Then the current from between the islands can flow uninterrupted down past the point and carry off the accumulations of sand from around the city filter intake —and "Smeary" rock. "And that,' declared Mr. Berrier, 'will mean that the whole stretch north of the island and around 'Smeary,' a stretch covering hundreds of square feet, will be available for a splendid swimming pool." GERMANS WITHOUT FOOD. SURRENDER [Continued From First Page] the whole of the first German army. That army since the battle near Slons on the 23d of August had been playing its part in a colossal strategic en deavor to create a Sedan for the allies by outflanking and enveloping the left of their whole line so as to en circle and drive both the British and French to the south'. "There was now a change in its objective and it was observed that the German forces opposite the British were beginning to move In a south easterly direction instead of continuing on to the capital, leaving a strong rear guard along the line of the river Ourcq (which flows south of and joins the Marne at Llzy-sur-Ourcq) to keep oft the French sixth army, which by then had been formed and was to the northwest of Paris. They were evi dently executing what amounted to a flank march diagonally across our front. "Prepared to ignore the British as being driven out of the tight they were initiating an effort to attack the left rtank of the main French army were entrenched in a long curved line from our right towards the east and so they carry out against it alone an envelop ment which thus far has failed against the combined forces of the allies. Fighting With French "On Saturday, the sth, the movement on the part of the Germans was con tinued, and large advance parties parties crossed the Marne southward at Trilport, Sammeron, Laforte-Sous- Jourra and Chateau Thiers'. There was considerable fighting with the French fifth army on the French left, which fell back from its position south of the Marne towards the Seine. "On Sunday large hostile forces cross ed the Marne and pushed on through i Coslumires and passed the British i right further to the east. They were j attacked at night by the French fifth i army, which captured three villages at j the point of bayonets. "On Monday. September 7, there was a general advance on the part of the alies. In this quarter of the field our forces, which had now been reinforced, pushed on in a northeasterly direction in cooperation with the advance oi the French fifth army to the north and of the French sixth army to the eastward against the German rear guard along the River Ourcq. "Possibly weakened by the detach ment of troops to the eastern theater of operations and realizing that the ac tion of the French sixth army against the line of Ourcq and the advance of the British placed their own movement on considerable danger of being taken in the rear and on its right flank, the Germans on this day com menced to retire towards the north east. Bitter Disappointment "This was the first sign that these troops had turned back since their at tack at Mons. a fortnight before, and from reports received the order to re treat when so close to Paris was a bit ter disappointment. From letters found on dead soldiers there is no doubt there was a general lmoression amongst the enemy's troops that they were about to enter Paris. "On Tuesday, September 8. the Ger man movement northeastward was continued. Their rear guards on the south of the Marne were being pressed ba< k to that river by our troops and by the French on our right, the latter capturing three villages a(ter a hand to-hand fight and the infliction of se vere loss on the enemy."

These photographs brought from Belgium on a steamer that docked a few days ago show the extreme meas ures the Belgians took to prevent the capture of the new capital by the German invaders.

GLASS'S STORIES IN SUCCESSFUL PLAY "Mawruss Perlmutter" and "Abe Potash" Get Many Laughs "Potash & Perlmutter," with all of their troubles, pleased a fair-sized house at the. Majestic on Saturday at matinee and evening performances. The stories by Montague Glass, which! appeared in the Saturday Evening Post, form the basis of the play, but it was with difficulty that the play was put into shape for the stage, for few playrights felt capable of mak ing a play from the material given, in the cloak and suit husiness, Potash & Perlmutter encounter one difficulty after another, ending in having their bookkeeper, who has been arrested on a false charge by the Russian govern ment, skip to Canada and thus forfeit the $20,000 bond, which throws them into bankruptcy. But then, in the lest act, things begin to happen and everything turns out all right, for the bookkeeper comes back, and the de signer falls in love with Perlmutter, and even though at that time they are in bankruptcy, she promises to de sign for them and help them on their teet again. The company, while not the origi nal, was good and played all parts well. Especially was the acting of 1 David Leonard as "Boris Andrieff" ef fective. Around him hung the plot of ; the play and in every sense he did full justice to the part.
