Positively none sold PROPOSITION & before thls tlme -10 More Days of August Furniture Sale RotHert's 312 Market Street CARRYING THE WAR INTO JAPAN Some of the German and Austrian prisoners interned in the Keifukuji temple, Himeji, Japan, created a seri ous disturbance on the evening: of the 22d ultimo, when they badly assaulted a number of their fellow-prisoners. The victims were two Austrian sol diers and six sailors of Italian birth. Since Italy Joined the allied powers, the Germans and Austrians had treat ed the eight ex-Italians very harshly. At 6.30 on Tuesday evening the ex-Italians, who all kept together, were singing in chorus "Non e Ver," an Italian, or rather a. Neapolitan, love song. Over 140 German and Aus trian prisoners, who took the song for the Italian national anthem, pounced o' the singers, and kicked and beat Aem. The unlucky eight made for thf depot office and sought the protec tion of their custodians, but not before one had been severely handled. Medi cal aid was administered. The au thorities are now holding an inquiry Into the affray. The Yushin, from which the Kobe Chronicle took this news, states that the authorities re fuse to give out any information about the affair. It shows a ticklish state of tension when hostilities depend upon a German trooper's inability to tell a love ditty from a national anthem. Hot Weather " Punch!"

MONTGOMERY | Both Phones Third and Chestnut Streets ; THURSDAY EVENING, LOGIC IN SPEEDWAY DESIGN SHOWN BY CHICAGO RACES Five world's records were estab lished without a death or accident oc curring when Chicago's new speedway, a two-mile board oval, was opened with a 500-mile derby on June 26. In spite of the unprecedented speed, av eraging 97.6 miles an hour, which was attained by the winning motor car, at no time was - there an excuse for a sense of danger to obsess the minds of the spectators. The August Popu lar Mechanics Magazine says: "The track is built for speed and safety, and the results of this race serve to uphold its Resign as logical and to Indicate that sane motor rac ing is mechanically possible. On this course a race instead of being a battle between tires, is a contest between finely tuned motors. This was respons ible for the establishment of a new racing record won by an English car which completed the distance without making a stop and finished fourth after averaging 95.06 miles an hour. The machine entered with its gas and water tanks full and coasted across the finish mark with them dry. Its pilot did not once take his hands from the wheel throughout the entire race and experienced no tire trouble what ever."

Yachtsmen Oppose New Pier at Eddystone Plant Special to The Telegraph Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 19.—Despite the fact that Samuel Vauclaln, vice president of the Baldwin Locomotive Works, stated that 30,000 men would soon be employed at the company's Eddystone plant and that the weekly payroll would reach ssoo,oot>. Essing ton residents and yachtsmen yester day opposed the granting or a license to the Baldwin Company to build a pier on its property at Eddystone. The opposition to the pier was made at a hearing before the Committee on Wharves and Docks of the Commis sioners of Navigation, held In the Bourse. The contention of adjoining prop erty owners was that the pier would extend so far out into the river that it would deprive their properties of the tides which carry off some of tlie shoal material, also that, witn the pier extending 300 feet into the river rroni the bulkhead line, there wouia ne too little space between the pier and Tinl cum Island. They asked for a post ponement until the army engineers could make another survey or the bulkhead and pierhead lines or until they could obtain the opinion or a har bor expert as to whetner their prop erty would be damaged by the build ing of the proposed pier. After a lengthy argument it was de cided to postpone the hearing until September 7, which will not hold up the application as it could not be acted upon until then, when there is to be a regular meeting of the Commission ers of Navigation.
