Durham, a "Brit ish aristocrat," is not a colonel after all. These facts were brought to light last evening when Durham's grand parents from Mechanicsburg came to Marshal Smith's ofiice and explained their case. They said Durham was only a boy and had never before been many miles from Mechanicsburg. Durham was arrested Monday at the Pennsylvania Station after he htfd attracted a great deal of attention by his wild stories. .Durham claimed that he was 25 years old and married. When asked to snow his registration card he was unable to do so and was arrested. He was remanded .to the cminty jail for further investigation. The young man's right name proved to be Harvey Taylor. born apd brought up in Central Pennsylvania, and the grandson of Mr. and Mrs. Jo siah M. Taylor, of Mechanicsburg. PERRY SOLDIERS' REUNION New Bloomtield, Pa., Sept. 14. —Sat- urday, October 6, is the date set for holding the soldiers' reunion for Perry county at New Bloomfield. A citizens' meeting will be held shortly to make arrangements. HARRISBURO ÜBftStl TELEGRAPH HUNGARY WOULD HAVE PEACE Premier Expresses Desire to End War Without.Great Victory Amsterdam, Sept. 14. —Dr. Alex ander Wekerle, the Hungarian pre mier, expounded the government's program at a meeting of the Hun garian chamber on Tuesday, says a Budapest dispatch.* The premier in his exposition saidjie advocated the I same principles regarding the suf- j frage as did his immediate predeces-1 sor, adding that if it proved impos- j sible to. carry out electoral Heform | with the present chamber the "gov- ; ernment would order new elections. ] The foreign policy remained en tirely unchanged, said the premier, and he emphasized the complete agreement existing between himself and the foreign minister. He con tinued: The foundation stones of our for eign policy are our allegiance to our allies and co-operation with them in all respects. We are united not only in the defensive war which was thrust upon us, but also as to its fina'l aim, namely, the harmonious joint conclusion of a suitable lasting peace. We were first in agreement with the German empire openly to express our entire readiness to conclude such a peace. This readiness of ours was solemnly confirmed by the peace res olution of the German Retchstag, which was made in agreement with the imperial German government, as well as by the official statement which our foreign minister made public on July 17. We even gave M broad outline of the conditions of an understanding by declaring that our defensive war is not aimed at any conquest whatever; that we oppose an economic war between the na tions and that are striving for a suitable, lasting peace which will not bo detrimental to our interests, and to avoid the recurrence of war. We even consider it desirable that brute force of arms in interhational relationship should be replaced by a moral empire of right. We recently also accorded grateful recognition to the Holy Father's efforts which have this aim in view. Our extreme readiness can natur ally meet with success only If It meets with desirable recognition in the enemy's camp. Failing this recog nition, we will wage war to the ut most, conscious of our strength and with our troops, thereby securing in the future not only our vital inter ests, but also the blessings of a last ing peace and a mutual understand ing. SOI.DIER FROM HERE IS COMMIOXDIiD FOR STAJJD For his stand on morality among soldiers, William Berkstresser, of 243 South Thirteenth Harrisburg, a private in Company D, Eighth In fantry, N. G. P., stationed at Camp Hancock, has won the admiration of the press of Augusta, Ga. Gordon liorkstresser, a brother, is also sta tioned at Camp Hancock, being an en listed man in Company D. Italian Confesses Killing Harrisburger in New York Vettoro Rosso, the Italian who killed Captain Mullin, of the Philadel phia >olice department, after a stub born battle, has confessed that he also killed William E. Dunbar, of Harrisburg, at Aurora, N. Y., on July 12. Kosso said that ho killed Mullin because he thought he was a high wayman. SHE IJAUXCHES SEAPLANES AND SHE'S UN SIN K ABLE John L. Bogert, a mechanical and consulting engineer of New York City, has designed what seams to us the most practical and brilliant plan thus far proposed for coping with the problem of detecting submarines as well as- increasing the possible applications of the seaplane in rough weather. We doubt whether subma rines can be detected under water except in the most favorable condi tions, but apart from that Mr. Bo gert's plan has genuine merit. Like an eagle, says Popular Science Monthly, an airplane must be in motion before it can fly. It must run along the ground or the water until it gathers momentum. Since it is impossible to gather speed in rough water, Mr. Bogert proposes first of all to eliminate the super structures and deck houses found on every ship. Since the airplane must have a long run, the ship is 560 feet long. Toward the bow, the runaway rises so as to provide a good take-off for the airplane. Beneath the take-off is the pilot house. It is possible for a skilful aviator to land on the deck of Mr. Bogert's vessel. But It is more likelf that he would prefer to alight in water. Should he do so, a crane will hoist him on board. FIRING SHELLS CHARGED WITH GASOLINE.IGNITES OX IMPACT In their great attack upon %les sines Ridge, states Popular Selence Monthly, the British brought into play a new weapon; the inflammable shell. "We didn't use gas in the at tack," said one correspondent, "but every known form of offensive weapon *1 think we did supply, in cluding h new horror known in the army as 'oil cans,' or 'boiling oil.' These on concussion burst and scat tered conflagration over a wide area. We know from the prisoners taken that they caused terror and did an immense amount of harm." Light on the nature of these flam ing projectiles Is given by an Amer ican patent which was issued to Henry Dean of Michigan early in the war. A chamber containing high-ex plosive powder is situated in back of the solid nose of the shell and right in front of the firing torch. Sur rounding this highly Inflammable torch'ls the charge of gasoline which takes up by far the greatest portion of the Interior of the projectile. Thus, when the nose of the shell strikes against the trench wall, the concussion sets oft the gunpowder. THE CAMOUFLAGE SOLDIER— A DECOY FOR THE GERMAN We have heard of tin soldiers, but it has remained Burgess, an officer in training aFFort Sheridan, Illinois, to bring to our attention a camouflage soldier of papier mache. His plan is to place a large number of these dummy soldiers beside the regular troops on the firing line, to serve as decoys for the Germans. Un able to distinguish between the real and faked soldier, he believes the Germans will waste a great amount of ammunition on the papier mache figures. In this instance, every hit will be as good as a miss.—Popular Science Monthly.
