U-BOAT CAPTAIN, SLAYER OF SWEETHEART, IN ROMANTIC TRAGEDY OF UNDERSEA WAR An Atlantic Port, Aug. 7.—Lars Larsen, an elderly man, but still vig orous and erect, who arrived here aboard a small cargo steamship, told a story of U-boat romance wihch for dramatic interest, is perhaps unpar alleled by anything ever narrated concerning the submarine warfare of atrocity. Sir. Larsen was an officer aboard the Swedish steamship Ada, which was sunk on June 12 last, while she was on her way from Gothenbuig, Sweden, to Hull, England. At first Mr. Larsen parried questions in re gard to his experience with submar ines, by saying that the memories were too bitter, and he was trying hard to banish them from his mind; but finally, he consented to speak. Following is h!a story:— "Before the war began a handsome young German became acqauinted with my son Swen, and, before long, was a frequent caller at our home in Stockholm. He fell in love with my daughter Minna, who was sixteen years old and considered very beau tiful. The German, Hans von Tue- MILITARY BRIDAL IN ST.

Mr. and Mrs. George Funk and daughter Elizabeth, of Cleveland, Ohio, have been called here by the death of the former's sfather, B. Frank Funk, of 441 Hummel street. binger, was an art student, and had come to Sweden to study some phase of his calling which he said he could not find in any other coun try. I never understood exactly what that phase was; but, at any rate. It was the means of bringing unhapplness to me and mine; and so I curse it and I would curse him too if I did not know he was the innocent instrument in the hands of a relentless fate, and that he would gladly have averted the trage dies of which he was the unwilling cause. Were to Marry After the War I "Minna soon grew to return the ■ love of the good looking youngster, and when the war broke out and he | received notice to present himself i at once to the naval unit to which ihe belonged in Germany, the poor | girl was ready to die of grief. Evi dently it cost Hans a terrible struggle too, but he said he did not believe the war could last a week and that he would return at the latest in two weeks. And it was arranged that when he did return he and Minna were to be married. "Two months elapsed before we got a letter from Hans. It told us of liis having been detailed tosubmarine work and of the unhappv time ha was having counting the hours when the war was to end and he could come to claim liis bride. After that we never heard from him again. For a while Minna bore up brave ly but she began to fade perceptibly. My wife died three months after Hans had gone away and, as mv son Swen was already a sturdy help to me aboard my schooner, the Baldar, I decided to take Minna along on our voyages too. Toward the end of April, as we were nearing the coast of England, on a return voyage from the West Coast of Africa, a shell struck the Baldar amidships. A splinter of the smashed wood-work struck Minna and killed her. The rest of us had barely time to get into a small boat and get away before the schooner sank, carrying down the body of my daughter. "It was then that we noticed the U-boat from which the shell had been fired. It came close to us and Judge of my horror and that of Swen when we discovered that the captain of the murderous craft was the man who was to have become the husband of Minna. He also appeared to be greatly affected when he saw my boy and me; and his first question was, 'How Is my Minna; and does she st'll' think of me?' "I pointed to the place where the Baldar had sunk. 'What,' almost shrieked Hans von Tuebinger, 'Min na is dead?' "His grief was certainly unfeigned when we told him what had happen ed. He soon braced up, however, and after saying, 'Well, there is no doubt that war is hell,' he ordered his men to stock our boat with provisions and bade us good-by. A moment later his boat was speeding toward another sailing vessel which had Just hove into sight. After many vicissitudes we reached England. "Last June my son and I were of ficers aboard the Swedish steamship Ada, under Captain Ternston. Again we were nearing the British coast when a submarine fired a shell. There was no delay in getting into life boats this time either; but somehow the gunfire did not seem to do the destructive work quickly enough to suit the submarine captain, antl so a HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH HOME-READING COURSE FOR CITIZEN-SOLDIERS (Issued by the War Department anil all rights to reprint reserved) This course of thirty daily lessons is offered to the men selected for service in the National Army as a practical help in getting started in the right way It is informal in tone and does not attempt to give binding rules and directions. These are contained in the various manuals and regulation?- of United States Army, to which this Course is merely introductory. LESSON 1 You are called to serve as a soldier I in the National Army, because that Is one of your obligations as a citi zen of the United States. The citi zens of a republic must always be ready In the hour of need to leave their own homes am" take up arms in defense of their rights and prin ciples. Otnerwlse the republic could not long continue to exist. The men who now enter military service de serve the gratitude and respect of their fellow citizens. You are doubtless making a heavy sacrifice in order to perforin this duty to your country. Hundreds of thousands of other young men and their families are face to face with similar sacrifices. All our citizens will sooner or later be called upon, each to bear his or her share of the burden. Men and women, rich and poor, all alike must do whatever is necessary and must give up what ever is necessary. For no personal interests or feelings can be permitted to stand in the way at a time when the safety and honor of the country are at stake. As a citizen soldier you are chosen for a post of special distinction. America is justly proud of the sol diers of the past who have won tor us the rights to-day denied and put In serious danger by the high-hand ed attacks of the German govern ment. America will be no less proud of you, as you fight to uphold those rights. Your personal responsibility is great. As warfare is to-day conduct ed, the individual soldier counts for more than ever before. Your own skill and bravery, no matter how humble your rank, may easily be Im portant factors In deciding whether an engagement Is to be won or lost. You can not depend upon anyone else to carry this personal responsi bility for you; you must depend upon .yourself. Some Americ an Soldiers Americans are well-fitted to meet this test. During the Civil War, at the battle of Ar.tietam, the Seventh Maine infantry lay, hugging the ground, under a furious storm of shot and shell. Private Knox, who was a wonderful shot, asked leave to move nearer the enemy. For an hour afterwards his companions heard his rifle crack every few min utes. His commanding otllcer finally, from curiosity, "crept forward to see what he was doing, and found that he had driven every man away from one section of n Confederate battery, tumbling over gunner after gunner as they came forward to fire. * • • At the end of an hour or so, a piece of shell took off the breech of his pet rifle, and he returned dis consolate; but after a few minutes he gathered three rifles that were left by wounded men and went back again." In the Confederate armies Indi vidual soldiers were no less skillful, cool and brave. On both sides they were Americans. Here are a few cases quoted from official records. You must read be tween the lines to get the full bene fit of the stories they tell of re sourcefulness and courage. On June 9, 1862, Private John Gray, Fifth Ohio infantry, "mounted on an artillery horse of the enemy and captured a brass six-pound piece, in the face of the enemy's fire, and brought' it to the fear." On October 12, 1863, Private Mich ael Dougherty, Thirteenth Pennsyl vania cavalry, "at the head of a de tachment of his company, dashed across an open field, exposed to a deadly fire from the enemy, and suc ceeded in dislodging them from an unoccupie.l house, which he and his comrades defended for several hours against repeated attacks, thus pre venting the enemy from flanking the position of the Union forces." From May 8 to 11, 186 4, Private John B. Lynch, Third Indiana cav alry, "carried important dispatches from the President to General Grant, passing through the enemy's coun try, escaping capture, delivered his messages and returned to Washing ton with replies thereto." On April 27. 1899. Private Edward White, Twentieth Kansas infantry, during a fight with Insurgents in the Philippine Islands, "swam the Rio torpedo was sent Into the vessel, and soon she began to settle and sink. "When the U-boat came close enough to enable us to discern the features of those on her deck, we were again almost paralyzed with the shock of horror to flnd that the com mander was none other than Hans von Tuebinger, my unwitting Neme sis. I had not noticed my son Swen. Evidently the awful horror of the situation had driven the poor lad In sane. When we got close enough to the U-boat Swen leaped to its deck and made a rush for Hans. His hand was at the man's throat when one of the U-boat seaman struck Swen a blow on the head. It felled him and he rolled off Into the water. "Hans tore off his coat and jumped into the sea after my boy. But it was vain. Swen did not reappear. The blow had stunned, if not killed him. Long the submarine remained there and every effort was made to recover the boy. Hans wept his eyes red and swore he would gladly have given his own life to save nay son's. 1 believe he meant it. "There was no need this time to provision our boat. We had supplies and drinking water a-plenty. 'Do you forgive meV asked the U-boat cap tain. What else could I do? He cer tainly was not personally responsible for the atrocities which he had been instrumental in inflicting upon me. 'Duty, duty!' he exclaimed bitterly; 'oh, this murderous, damned un speakable duty!'" Lars Larsen burst into tears. "I'm trying to forget," he said to the reporter; "do you think God will ever be good enough to let me for get? I can always see my Minna and my son before me; and side by side with them I can see their slayer' whom I cannot but forgive and whom I cannot flnd It In my heart to hate." MINES CLOSED BY STRIKE Springfield, 111., Aug. 13.—Thirty two of the forty coal mines in the Springfield district, representing a daily output of 20,000 tons are shut down to-day as the result of strikers among drivers and motormen and 10,000 diggers are in enforced idle ness. Indications are that not a single mine In the dlstrlctp will be in operaUon to-morrow, Grande de In face of the enemy's fire and fastened rope to the unoccupied trenches, thereby en abling the crossing of the river and the driving of the enemy from his fortified position." On May 6. 1900. Private William P. Maclay, Forty-third U. S. Volun teer Infantry, "charged an occupied | bastion, saving the life of an officer in a hand-to-hand combat and de stroying the enemy." In all these cases medals of honor were granted. The Incidents, how ever, are typical of the army. Thou sands of similar stories might be told. They represent the spirit that will inspire the National Army when the time comes to show the stuff of which it is made. Tales of heroic courage can be found in the annals of all armies and of all nations. But the American Army has Its own special tradition, which these incidents Illustrate. It Is the tradition of intelligence, self reliance. and Individual daring In the part of men serving In the ranks. Individual Soldier Counts Other things being equal, an army made up of self-reliant, thinking men has a great advantage over a merely machine-like army, and this is especially truo In present-day war fare. Major General Hugh L. Scott, Chief of Staff, U. S. A., remarks on this point: "The conditions under which mod ern wars are fought are ever making increasing demands on the Individ ual soldier. • • • The Individual soldier must know how to interpret accurately orders and signals, for the enemy's fire may often so Isolate him from his leader ard comrades, per haps only r. step away, that he may be thrown on his own initiative in making his actions conform to those of the whole line; he may have to use his own judgment in opening fire, in advancing, in intrenching." Fair Play A second tradition of the Ameri can Army, which need only be men tioned, is that of fighting fairly and treating even the enemy with as much humanity as his own conduct will permit. As for slaughtering or enslaving the civilian population of captured territory'', attacking prison ers or assaulting women, American soldiers would as little commit such crimes in time of war as in time of peace. In this respect most of the civilized nations of the world think alike. Fighting For Rights There Is a third splendid tradition of the American Army which you will help to carry forward. It has fought always and everywhere in de fense of principles and rights—never merely for territory and for power. Even the Civil W r ar resulted from the clash of opposing principles— the principle of an indivisible Union upheld by the North, and that of freedom to withdraw from the Union upheld by the South. To protect the rights of citizens, the American people have several times opposed tyrannical govern ments —the English government for a short period in 1776 and 1812, the the French government for a short period in 1798, the Mexican government In 1848, the Spanish government In 1898. The final effect In each case has been to advance the cause of liberty and democracy throughout the world, even in the countries against which we fought. Our weapons have not willingly been turned against any peoples, but only against the rulers who misgoverned and misled them. In fighting for our own rights, the American Army has fought also, In President Wilson's phrase, for the "rights of mankind." For a like high purpose, the American people have entered into the present war against the German leads the German people. Only by so doing can wc make America and the world "safe for democracy." But one ending can be thought of—an ending that will guarantee the con tinuance of all those principles and rights which the American Army has In the past so nobly fought to establish. Never lose sight, even for an In stant, of the fact that all your train ing, your efforts, and your sacrifices have this one great object in view, the attainment of which is worth I anything It may cost. Filipino Made Chief of Government Bureau Manila, Aug. 11.—For the first j time in the history of the Bureau of Science, established as a department of the Philippine government since the American occupation, a Filipino has been named to a position as chief of a division in that bureau. | The appointee is Dr. Timoteo Dar .
