CANDIDATES DROP THEIR MASKS [Continued From First Page.] the advice is given to support all of them. In the same list is to be found the advertisement of ex-Mayor E. 7.. Gross who has openly aligned himself with the Democrats this year, al though previously holding office as a Republican. Those who might have been a wee bit doubtful as to what members of City Council should be credited with during the last two years' of Harris burg's economic and constructive busi ness administration, were amazed at the record of the commissioners' work »s compared in the Telegraph last evening. The lists of ordinances printed showed that the Republican members of council had done the great bulk of the work and Republican voters have come to a pretty clear understanding of the fact that there is not one grain of N'onpartisanlsni in this contest. It is purely the Republican commission ers against the Democratic commis sioners. and an effort of the Demo cratic machine of town to capture council, disband the present police force and the highway department, dismiss experienced men as was done before and give the places to ex-saloon keepers, broken-down Democratic politicians and hangers on of the Dem ocratic gang. The mask is off and the voters are no longer deceived. TEUTONS STEADILY PRESSING ONWARD [Continued From First Page.] presented to-day. The work of form ing a new cabinet under the premier ship of Aristide Briand is declared to be well advanced. The latest statement made by the Austro-Hungarian War Office reports continuation of furious attacks on Austrian positions by the Italians. Several of these attacks already have failed, it is declared. "While Austro-German forces from the north and Bulgarian armies from Ihe east are steadily pressing in upon Serbians, the situation in South Serbia is reported improved from the ciewpoint of the entente allies. The French operations in the south ern sector of the Serbian front have been carried on so successfully that the fall of Strumitsa in Bulgaria. Is imminent, Athens hears. Heights dominating the town have been occu pied by the French. Advices through Paris are to the effect that the French and Serbians ire now on the offensive northward i!onc the railroad to Nlsh and are marching on Istlp. In the north, although the Austro- Gorman advance Is declared to have been retarded by bad roads, progress *ll along the front is reported in the current statement from Vienna. t»n the front in France, Paris re ports a continuation of vigorous artil lery combat in the Champagne, not ably near Tahure and violent fight ing with bombs and grenades to the north of the Aisne. DEMOCRATIC POOR DIRECTORS SHORT [Continued From First Page.] cratic new?naper apologist and John P. Guyer, clerk to the- board and sec retary of the "law and order commit ter," have been boasting of the way it had handled its affairs since the board took office. To-day the poor directors ask for an additional requisition of SB,OOO to carry them through the remainder of the year. Furthermore, the board in order to avoid public censure in view of the widely heralded claim of excellence, tried to cover up its unprecedented "fall down," by blaming the SB,OOO in crease on the majority members of city council! In a communication to the county I commissioners Clerk Guyer, acting! for the board, points out that the 1 SB,OOO is needed to "pay salaries and | to pay for provisions, heat, light, clothing and shoes, furnishing and building hospital supplies, repairs, farm expenses, improvements, out-! door relief, and office expenses." Guyer says that the unprecedented hard times of last winter are respon-! sible for the poor board's deficiency, | thereby admitting the dire effects of the national Democratic administra- j tion on the laboring men of Harris burg and Dauphin county. The county commissioners realizing that there was no other wav out of the dilemma but to provide the money, agreed to allow the requisi- i tion. This wasn't exaetly the way the poor board had figured out their own solution to the problem. The Demo- j crats had been counting on having their request held up at least until thei next meeting of the commissioners— 1 Wednesday of next week, the day fol lowing election —and were prepared to Issue a nicely phrased little statement disclaiming any responsibility for themselves and making the far-fetched excuse that there would have been no deficiency had city council onlv pro vided work—at a time when the weather permitted of little outside la bor—to the thousands who were thrown out of work here last winter as a result of Democratic blunders at Washington. , What has been so amazing however lo the county commissioners is the fact that the additional appropriation allowed to-day boosts the poor board's expense allowance to $68,000, thus far for ISIS. For at the begin ning of the year the poor directors tig tired their budget with the other de partments and asked for $38,000. They got It. During the year the re ceipts totaled $2,000. Now the board wants another SB,OOO. And this is only the end of October. CASTORIA For Inf'irrts and Children.

A. Surface (State Zoo ! logist)—"The travelogues are de ! cldedly educational and well worth j everyone's time to attend. If one hasn't had the opportunity ot' traveling through Germany in per son. Mr. Roberson's travelogue gives a very good idea of people and conditions there. I expect to see all the travelogues I can with my family. The series Is a great i thing for the educational uplift of the city and thanks is coming to the Telegraph for being respon sible in bringing Mr. Roberson here." J. S.

The travelogue on a whole tended to promote neutral ity in view of inculcating lessons showing the necessity of the United States preserving peace, if last night's subject is a sample, I rec ommend the travelogues heartily and advise all who can to attend." Robert MeFarlaiul (Photo graphic expert of J. H. McFarland Co.) —"Mr. Roberson's pictures were splendid, particularly the ones shown at the last of Bavarian scenery. The moving pictures showed were clear and realistic, bringing out vividly the horrible side of the war. On the whole the pictures both dissolving and moving—were remarkable." tic tour across militant Germany. It was the first of the travelogues under the auspices of the Telegraph and the crowd was as representative as it was large. Class and mass were present and enjoyed equally the de lightful and interesting screen journey over the fatherland. Many people prominent in the af fairs of the city were noticed in the audience. Enthusiasm at times ran riot. Those of German sympathy in the 1 crowd warmed to the realistic pic tures of troops marching, of scenes \ on the firing line, of the Kaiser re- 1 splendent in military garb, and the' applause which followed drowned! Roberson's voice in the din. Robcr.son at His Rest Roberson was at his best. He kept j things moving at a lively rate: pic-1 tures flashed on and off the screen. ; never reaching the point where they | were the least bit tiring: merry quips and jests by and humorous stories of I his own travels in Germany kept the ' audience laughing when it was not ' more seriously engaged in watching ] the warlike maneuvers of the kaiser's I fighting forces. And when it was all | over and the house lights flashed on. j the crowd continued for the. moment ! to remain seated so rapt was it in vividness of the pictures and the j reality of the tour which was un- | folded before its eyes in the thous-1 ands of feet of motion pictures and ; hundreds of beautifully and accurate- j ly colored views. The hour and three- ' quarters to most people passed like a ! third of that time. True to all advance notices. Mr. j Roberson did not confine himself to j picturing Germany in "war-like mood." He took his Telegraph tour- I ists out onto the firing line; he show-1 ed gigantic guns recoiling under the j force of explosion; showed civilized I men at the business of killing each | other: their work and their pleasures at the front. The Human Side The human side as well as the spec- j tacular was there, too. and Roberson showed a graveyard in a little Prus sian town where soldiers and civilians who - died together in keeping in vaders back are buried side by side. 1 He showed towns torn to pieces by! German and Russian shells. He pic- j tured the arrival of wounded from the ( front; showed them treated by Red i Cross nurses and he showed great j crowds on the "Unter den Linden" in ' Berlin anxiously watching war bulle- j tins for news of brothers, fathers and ! sweethearts at the front. The word ] "war" took on a new meaning for all! who sat before the pictures. Great German Cities War had its part; so did peace, and to many in the crowd the scenes of Germany in peace-tinig were much more attractive than the war scenes. All the large German cities were shown in passing. with typical glimpses of the life of each. Work ing southward in his journey, Rober son drew a continual round of ex clamations from his audience with the exquisite beauty of his still pictures of the Bavarian highlands. One picture faded into another, each in passing seeming more beautiful than the one that preceded, until the audience was lost in a maze of loveliness. And the talk along with the pic tures was Interesting, too. Roberson showed from the start that he wasn't ponderous of speech and his remarks followed one, another crisply in a chatty conversational fashion, never tiring nor boring. He explained his pictures where explanation was need ed, told of the things he had seen and done and painted a lively word-picture of Germany, its problems and possi bilities. Militarism Caused War "The German people did not want this war," he said at one place in his talk. "It was forced on them by the European militarism which has had the continent in its grasp for years past." Applause greeted the state ment. "Germany" as a travelogue will be gi\en again to-night for the advant age of those who did not attend as "first nighters." It will be the same pictures throughout. Roberson's limited stay in Harrisburg prevents many repetitions of the same subject, and to-night will he one of the last chances to seo and hear this famous travelnguer in one of the most power i ful and popular of his offerings. Belgium To-morrow : On Saturday evening "Belgium and Holland" is the subject, and, as Rob erson pointed out in prefacing his [travelogue of last evening, it will be P sort of sequel to the preceding one j inasmuch as the effectiveness and effi cacy of German arms were'shown first Innd result in the second.

Nish Is Threatened by Advance of Bulgarians By Associated Press London, Oc —t. 29, 12.18 P. M. —• The first phase of the Austrlan-Ger man-Bulgarian campaign in Serbia is completed. Not only have the in vaders of Serbia realized the import ant objective of joining hands in the northeastern corner of the country, but they have enhanced this military advantage by procuring free passage down the Danube. The progress of Bulgarian troops east and northeast of Nish both threatens the city and places the Ser bian army in a position of Increased danger. Moreover like the union of Bulgarian and Teutonic armies further north, the capture of Nish would have more than mere military or strategic advantage since it would make pos sible rapid establishment of railway communication through Belgrade, Nish and Sofia, among Austria, Ger many and their allies.
