$4,000 PACKAGE MISSING
Scranton, Pa., Sept. 20. —
Five detectives from New York and
Philadelphia, in the employ of the
Adams Express Company, are here
looking up the disappearance of a
package containing nearly $4,000 from
the local office of the company.
The package was brought to the ex
press office last Wednesday from one
one of the central city banks and a
receipt was given to the messenger.
Half an hour later the money was
gone. Suspicion at first directed to
ward ten men connected with the
office here has narrowed down to
three and arrests are expected soon.
WAR PHYSICIAN
WINS NOBEL PRIZE
Exchanged After Being Held in
Russia as Prisoner Finds
Honors
Vienna, Sept. 20. Entering
the war as a volunteer surgeon little
known outside the circle of specialists
of his own class, Dr. Robert Barany of
Vienna, after fifteen months of captiv
ity In Russia, has at last returned as
an "exchange invalid" to find himself
famous as the Nobel prize winner in
medicine.
The knowledge which was the basis
of his prize-winning book was gained
chiefly as surgeon In Przemysl; the
book itself was written In captivity; it
has brought him 400,000 crowns in
money: and it played no small part in
securing his release from Turkeston.
The dramatic circumstances sur
rounding his achievement have great
ly heightened the effect of his return
to his family. Nominally he was per
mitted to leave Russia because he is
slightly lame from an affection of one
foot from which he has suffered since
a child. Actually, his unexpected dis
tinction, plus the efforts of Prince
Karl of Sweden, went far to secure his
exchange.
Despite his lameness, Dr. Barany
volunteered for service at the out
break of war, and was detailed as chief
surgeon of the surgical department of
a hospital In Przemysl. It was while
there, as he modestly explains, that he
was "so fortunate as to discover a new
method for the treatment of head
wounds," a discovery that enabled him
to cure a vastly greater percentage of
cases than before.
For four weeks after the fall of
Przemysl the Russian commander al
lowed the Austrian physicians to re
main. Then in transports of about 100
they were sent to various part of Rus
sia, many to Siberia, the surgeon and
many others to Turkestan. Unlike
many others, Dr. Barany on his re
turn has reported almost universally
good treatment in captivity, treatment
that included a sufficiency of recent
food liberty not too restricted, and
pleasant professional relations with
Russian commanders and col
leagues. Dr. Barany was given fairly
ample opportunity to study, to prac
tice, and to lecture on his specialty to
Russian and captive Austrian physi
cians.
Believes Gompers Is Not
Man to Bring Socialists
of Both Sides Together
The Hague, Sept. 20. "lf
the International Socialist Bureau has
not as yet succeeded in bringing the
Austro-German and Allied Socialists
together. President Samuel Gompers
of the American Federation of Labor
certainly could not accomplish the
task," says Camille Huysmans, secre
tary of the International Socialist Bu
reau, to a correspondent of the Asso
ciated Press, in answer to a proposal
of Mr. Gompers to hold a world labor
conference during the progress of the
peace conference following the war.
Mr. Hysmans pointed out that any
International conference without the
participation of the British and
FYench Socialists would be a farce
in that its decisions would be entirely
lacking in influence.
He declared I<s belief that Mr.
Gompers' proposal at present is im
practicable, and <*te deprecated the
idea of the American or International
Trade Union organizations trespassing
on the political domain of the Socialist
International Bureau. He declared
that such a conference would have to
I be held under the auspices of the latter
organization, and naturally he would
approve of such a congress if the Brit
ish and French were willing to partici
pate.
"The Socialists constitute the center
of gravity in the matter of influencing
the war and when they are ready to
act," Mr. Huysmans declared, "a con
gress should be held even without
awaiting the peace conference." He
believes, however, that the war will
| continue until next year, considering
I the the great obstacles to peace that
I are apparent at present.
' The Dutch Socialist organ, Het Volk,
applauds Mr. Gompers' idea, but
! doubts the practicability of such a
plan save under the auspices of the
j Socialist International Bureau. It asks
. whether he is acting after consultation
with President I.egien, o( German In-
I ternational Trade Union Alliance,
; "who might regard it as undesirable
j to advocate the plan himself for com-
I prehensible reasons."
Frank Rockefeller Still
Gives John D. "Turndown"
Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 20. There's
to be no burying of the hatchet be
tween John D. Rockefeller, richest
man in the world and his brother,
Frank Rockefeller, of this city.
That this is the case was made
I known when Frank Rockefeller ad
| mltted that efforts of his other brother
I William Rockefeller, of New York,
Ito affect a reconciliation Sunday
I proved unavailing.
| "There never will be a reconciliation
j between John and I," said Frank
Rockefeller emphatically at his office
j to-day.
AVilliam Rockefeller and his wife
came here Sunday and visited with
John D. at the latter's Forrest Hill
estate. Mr. and Mrs. William Rocke
feller in the afternoon motored out to
Frank'? home in Wickliffe, but Frank
was not at home. They visited with
Mrs. Frank Rockefeller and then re
turned to John D.'s home. They were
assured that the trouble between
Frank and John, which arose over a
business deal in the early days of
Standard Oil could not be patched up.
A FINE TREATMENT
FOR CATARRH
EASY TO MAKE AND COSTS LITTLE
Catarrh Is such an insidious disease
and has become so prevalent during the
past few years that its treatment
should be understood by all.
Science has fully proved that Catarrh
is a constitutional disease and therefore
requires a constitutional treatment.
Sprays, inhalers, salves and nose
douches seldom if ever give lasting
benefit and often drive the disease
further down the air passages and into
the lungs.
If you have Catarrh or Catarrhal
deafness or head-noises, go to your
druggist and get one ounce of Parmint
(Double strength). Take this home and
add to it >4 pint hot water and 4
ounces of granulated sugar; stir until
dissolved, take one tablespoonfu) 4
times a day.
This will often bring quick relief
from the distressing head-noises, clog-
Bed nostrils should open, breathing be
come easy and mucus stop dropping In
to the throat.
This treatment has a slight tonic ac
tion which makes it especially effec
tive in cases where the blood lias be
come thin and weak. It is easy t
make, tastes pleasant and costs little.
Every person who wishes to be free
from this destructive disease should
give this treatment a trial.—Advertise

HORSE RACING TO
SUCCEED FIGHTS
Luxurious New Establishment
Marks Passing of Bull
Ring in Spain
San Sebastian, Spain, Sept. 20.—(Cor
respondence of The Associated Press).
—Bull fighters and their partisans
look askance at a luxurious new estab
lishment Just completed here, where
thoroughbred horses will soon begin
racing on a scale hitherto unknown in
Spain.
The race course has all modern im- ]
provements and with grandstands that !
rival those of Longchamps and Auteuil, j
near Paris. Alfonso XIII has not only I
sanctioned the enterprise, but has given |
it vogue by acquiring a stable of thor
oughbreds himself; some of his horses >
may make their debuts at the meeting j
which opened July 2 and will continue .
until October 1.
The more emotional and more con
servative see in the King's encourage
ment of horseracing the prelude to a
radical step in the modernizing of
Spain—the eventual abandonment of
the bull fight out of regard for the sen
timents of visitors from countries !
where it is not looked upon as sport. 1
Others see in It simply a timely and
enterprising project in the Spanish ef
fort to encourage touring on the penin
sula.
Spain has shown a remarkable burst
of energy since the war began, with
King Alfonso setting the example. He
has accorded special facilities to com
panies and capitalists for the building
of hoteds at favorable points, such as
Seville, Cadiz and Algeclras.
The city of Barcelona is organizing
a systematic movement with a view to
attracting American visitors to that
part of the Mediterranean coast. Finan
cial aid to hotels and other encourage
ment to promoters of improvements in
coast resorts are to be given, and it is
intended to do everything necessary to
create a popular winter retreat on the
Spanish coast from where cruises may
be made to the Balearic Islands.
The extension of horseracing hereto
fore absolutely neglected in Spain is h
part of this movement and does not at
all mean that bull fighting; will
superseded by It. The national sport
will go on as long as there are crowds
to witness it, probably. It all depends
I on what taste the Spaniards develop for
. | the horses.
The idea is to profit from the para-
II lysis of racing in France and Belgium
' | to draw to Spain's great sea resort the
j big-spending owners of thoroughbreds
1 and the free livers that following rac-
I ing wherever it is.
i A twenty thousand dollar stake for
" the opening day indicates the earnest-
I ness of the enterprise.
' Among the stables represented are
three American owners, w. K. Vander-
I bilt, with thirty of the sixty horses he
I has in training at Saint Louis on
I Polssy; Jefferson Davis Cohn, with
i about the same number, and T. P.
! Thorne, with a dozen or so. Only ten
i French owners are represented.

I Isn't quite ready yet to help me."
' This dialogue, or one like it. Is re-
I peated night after night In hundreds
of homes throughout the United States,
not only In our great cities, but in the
towns, villages, and the rural sections
of our country as well.
Too frequently children depend upon
the assistance of their parents, in the
preparation of their lessons. The re
sult is a great decrease in self-reliance
and independence of others —qualities
I which our growing boys and girls
should be taught to cultivate. Fre
quently in the desire to help their chil
dren obtain high marks in school and
an excellent rating on their monthly re
ports, parents render an unreasonable
amount of assistance.
The plan Is to be objected to because,
first, it leads to dishonest work and an
exaggerated opinion on the part of the
pupil regarding his ability, and second
ly, It takes away thpt spirit of eltort
and independence which should be ac
quired by every pupil in our public
schools. Teachers are frequently care
less in accepting or permitting home
work which does not bear the stamp
of honest endeavor, but Is too frequent

THE "SIX-SIX SCHOOL PLAN"
In most States the school system Is
organized so that eight years Is devot
ed to elementary and four years to
high school education. But objection
is now being urged to this plan. It Is
believed that It would be better to cur
tall the elementary and extend the
high school period. Many men hold
that in six years almost, if not quite,
as much can be accomplished in the ele
mentary school as is accomplished In
most schools in eight years. Often In
the eighth and sometimes In the
seventh grade, pupils do ncW make
much headway. They seem to go over
the ground whicli they covered in the
earlier grades. Most pupils are Just
entering the teens when they reach the
seventh grade. This is the crucial
period In the child's life, and there j
ought to be some modification of school I
methods and discipline at this time.
Seventh and eighth grade pupils should
be treated differently in most respects
from first grade pupils. Moreover, the j
higher grade pupils would do more 1
earnest work and conduct themselves
better If they could be In u school I
with older boys and girls. They need I
inspiration. If they are kept with the!
babies they will not do their best or- I
dlnarlly in either study or conduct.
They need at this time to look for-!
ward and upward, rather than back- ,
ward and downward. They need also
to have departmental teaching, by
which is meant that one teacher Bhould |
not teach every subject, but only the
subjects in which she Is specially |
strong.—M. V. O'Shea In the October I
