T. R. WOULD NOT
SIT IN THE SENATE
WITH LAFOLLETTE
Responsibility of War Put Up
to German People by
Ex-President
Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 25.—"1f I
n
were this minute a member of the
Vnlted States Senate, I would be
ashamed to sit in that body until I
found out some method of depriving
Senator La Follette of his seat in
t'*.at chamber, which he now dis
graces by his presence there," Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt declared in a
talk jesterday at a luncheon given
Ijr -Major General Wood and him
self as h part of the Middle West
ern patriotic celebration of this city.
"Senator La Follette is at this mo
• ment loyally and efficiently serving
one country—Germany. He is acting
in such a fashion as to make him one
of the most potent enemies of this
country, and a most sinister enemy
of democracy. He is doing every
thing in his power to enthrone au
tocracv under the German flag
throughout the world by the attitudo
he is now taking toward the war."
The attitude of the German-Ameri
can press and the German Alliance
in this country "in their hearty sup
port of the German government" and
the attitude of the Germans at home
toward their government shows that
they are back of it. Colonel Roose
velt said in a speech at the Old Glory
week festival here last night in com
menting on the theory that the
Vnited States is fighting the German
government but not the people.
Shows Hostility
"For no nation does Germany feel
nnd express such bitter and con
temptuous hostility as for the United
States," he said. "There is no nation
on the face of the globe which they
would be more delighted to ruin and
plunder. Under such circumstances
the public men and newspapers en
gaged in defending Germany or as
sailing England and our other allies
or in protesting against the war and
demanding an inconclusive peace are
guilty of moral treason to this coun
try. and while the German-American
papers have achieved an evil promi
nence in this matter the professional
anti-English Irish papers are as bad
and the purely sensational demagogic
and unpatriotic section of the native
American press is the worst of all.
STOLE WATCH IS CHARGE
Thaddeus Toy, who is well known
to the local police, was arrested yes

told of a meeting of the Friendship
local in an open cornfield near Sas

take charge of banks, burn bridges
and cut telegraph wires, while the

in a like manner.
President Wilson and Governor
Williams, of Oklahoma. Hoover said
Munson declared, would have such a
large force of soldiers for personal

that none would be available to send

\v. C. U., that two carloads of rifles
would be available when needed and
that the W. C. U. had as much right
to conscript recruits for a revolution
as the Government had to draft men
for the trenches in France. At this
meeting early in July appropriations
were made for the purchase of 100
pounds of dynamite. Hoover declared

ARMY TO ABSORB
GUARD REGIMENTS
New Unit of 3,755 Men to Ex
ceed Entire Brigade of
Old Regime
Washington, Sept 26.—The War
Department made public a complete
outline of the new army organiza
tion for service In Europe. The an
nouncement, which has been awaited
with much Interest throughout the
country, shows that the new Infan
try regiment will exceed in number
of officers and men an entire brigade
of the past. The new regimental
strength is 3,755 officers and men.
It becomes certain, therefore, that
many National Guurd regiments will
lose their identity In the consolida
tions that will be necessary to whip
the new organization plan into
shape.
Nevertheless many of the militia
regiments will remain Intact and
will be brought up to the newly au
thorized strength by the assignment
of lifted men to their ranks follow
ing ™.e course of traininng at the
contonments. This fact also was made
known, although not officially,
to-day.
More Artillery and Machine Guns
The new organization increases
the ratio of artillery and machine
gun strength to Infantry. In place
of the old division of three brigades
with three Infantry regiments in
each, are two brigades with two in
fantry regiments In each. But In
the new, as In the old organization,
there are three regiments of field
artillery In each division, making
the ratio of artillery to infantry regi
ments three to four, in place of three'
to nine. A trench mortar battery,
added to the artillery brigade, and
a one-pounder platoon, attached to
each Infantry regiment headquarters
company adds to the gun strength
of the division.
A division now comprises a total
of 27,152 men and includes a total
of fourteen machine gun companies.
Eaeli of the four infantry regiments
has one, each of the two brigades
has a machine gun battalion of three
companies, and the division has a
machine gun battalion of four com
panies. This gives each division a
mobile machine gun strength of ten
companies, which can be used as
special needs require, while each
regiment still has Its own machine
gun equipment in one of its com
ponent companies.
In addition, there are forty-eight
sections of auto-riflemen, each sec
tion carrying four light machine
guns (automatic rifles), one section
in each of the four platoons making
up each rifle company.

complete outline of the new organ
ization, as announced by the War
Department:
At maximum strength an infantry
regiment will comprise 103 officers

ed on the old plan is, of course, nec
essary. As soon as possible a state
ment will be made outlining the new
organization of units In the National
Guard.

OPEN EVENINGS
THE TRUTH ABOUT
GERMANY
By MARIE BONINI BROWN
The "Show Camp" Is a Cheerful Place,
but Wretchedness and Despair Reign
in Other Camps
No. 9—GERMAN PRISON CAMPS
In April of last year I mado a trip
to several German prison camps, in
cluding tho much exploited one at
Ruhleben. ...
Everything is true that has been
written about this camp—the good
treatment -of the
En g1 1 shmen In
terned there, their
good food, their
shows, their 11-
brary. school—
But Kuhleben
Is about like the a V/ rl
rest of the prison \- v
camps of Germany
as Central park
West In New Tori* jßpaafeik
Is like the East
show-place, a
mans take visitors r
and say "See. how
well we treat our
prisoners!"
In Ruhleben. the Englishmen pay
for their "keep." Mr. Ferguson, a
singing teacher, does all the buying
for the kitchen. Every morning, ac
companied by a German officer, he
goes to market and carefully
the best there for the English in the
camp. This Is cooked and served al
most In first class hotel stylt.
The camp Is laid out In streets.
The buildings are substantial.
Mr. Thorpe, who. before he was In
terned, lived In the same pension as
I did. has charge of the amusements
of the camp. Amateur theatricals are
given frequently. Mr. Thorpe Is per
mitted to go to town and buy what
ever he has money for and what the
town contains, to costume these plays.
A moving picture show Is given twice
a week.
A TERRIBLE CONTRAST.
Truly, life in Camp Kuhleben la one
grand aweet song.
Hut It Is a terrible contrast to see
the other camps, and I >■ only two
other*, and thoar not the worst.
I went to see one of the camps
where Italian prisoners of war are
kept.
Understand. Camp Ruhleben Is not
a prisoner of war camp, It Is a camp
for Interned Englishmen, but the Ger
mans would be glad to have people
think that their prison camps are like
Ruhleben.
In the other camps there were no
streets. The buildings were the rud
est kind of wooden shacks and. so far
as 1 could learn, contained no heat.
When It rains, the great field upon
which these huts are built Is a morass.
The men wade through It in misery
or sit, huddled tin their huts In even
greater wretchedness.
The camp is enclosed In a high fence
with barbed wire on top of It. Ger
man soldiers, of course are marching
round It constantly. The prisoners
are dirty, unshaven, swarming with
vermin. It gives one the horrors to
see the poor fellows scratching,
scratching, all the time.
They try. with what crude methods
they can use, to keep their hair and
beards close-cut. But there Is no way
for thern to clean their clothes. There
are no arrangements for bathing or
washing.
Of course It was hard for me to
learn very many details, but I think
about the only time the men can
wash Is when it rains.
Their food Is poor, consisting of
black bread and a kind of soup.
Thvy have only ivhnt clothe* they
wnrp when enptared. It wax cold (he
day I flatted theae tiro enmpa and the
poor Xellowa were ahlverlnac, anme
tlmea standing three and four In n
group to keep warm.
The ahoea on aome hod worn oat
and their feet were tied up In old
ram, or blta of blauketa or old clothra.
I In their wooden shacks, they sleep
; on the floor, which sometimes Is of
wood, and sometimes of earth.

ence applauded the actors enthusias
tically and the company responded
by giving a cheerful round of ap
plause on the stag" for the audience.
Another theater lowered the fire
proof curtain after the first act. The
manager came to the front and said
the interval would be longer than
usual and requested the audience to
go into the passageway where it
would be safer than In the auditor
ium, which they did. They, returned
to their seats after half an hour.
One of the largest music halls has
a wartime orchestra of sixty women.
They played the accompaniments to
the acts without Interruption. Many
persons living in the neighborhood of
ths underground railways took
refuge In the stations. The work of
the police, firemen, civil constables
and Red Cross, as well as the wo
men's auxiliaries was prompt.
Used Subway Shelters
There were unusual scenes in the
underground railway stations. Wo
men in evening clothes rubbed
shoulders with workmen homeward
bound carrying kits of tools. Many
persons sat down on the stairways
and read newspapers while waiting
for the signal that all was clear. Oth
ers sang and some danced.
But there was another side to the
picture. Mothers unable to get home
were distressed about the safety of
their children and wounded soldiers
hobbled to places of safety on
crutches, attended by their nurses.
Inspect Damage
After the raiders had gone, the
streets where bombs had fallen were
crowded with many thousands of
sightseers. It was well after mid
night before returned to nor
mal.
Reports from Yorkshire indicate
that the Zeppelins which appeared
enrly this morning o(T the Lincoln
shire coast dropped bombs and aerial
torpedoes. The amount of damage
has not been ascertained. The signal
that all was clear was given at about
5 o'clock this morning.
have, of course, I, being a woman, do
not know, but, from the look of their
mode of living, 1 think they cannot
amount to much.
It made me feel bad to r.eo the
French and Italian troops which are
► o dapper and trim on parade, looking
just like outcast dogs, slinking along,
hoping to escape observation. Tho.*c
men were asliitmed that I should see
them BO unkempt and dirty.
M*ny of the men 1 saw were bare
footed and their clothes were thin.
1 learned that the French prisoners
are the ones chosen to go out and do
the heavy, unpleasant manual laboi
for the German soldiers.
Of course 1 could not talk to the
prisoners, but I did speak to one
Italian. I spoke to him In Italian
und he smiled and sand, "Vive Italia."
I would have liked to buy him some
tobacco, but Capt. Tauscner said it
would only Invite trouble for myself,
as It would cast suspicion on me. and
1 was trying to be careful not to have
that happen.
The prisoners DO NOT get the
things sent them by relatives. I
learned that positively—no matter
how I learned It. Once In a long
time they will get packages of food,
after the food has spoiled, been
rained -on and crushed or become
mouldy or something like that.
The clothes, candy, tobacco and
books are confiscated by the Ger
mans. I learned, too, that the pris
oners would give almost anything
for books. Newspapers, of course, are
beyond their wildest dreams, but
they do hope for books—which they
do not get.
A'ISEKT AND WRETCHEDNESS.
The wounds the men have when
captured are tended to in only the
roughest manner. I saw men with
bandages on their heads and arms
which evidently had been there for
days—they were dirty and blood
soaked.
Oen thing the Germans have aone
which has embittered the English
prisoners of war more than anything
else—ls to compel them to sleep and
eat and live with East Indian and
Moroccoan prisoners.
The English have nothing against
the men of the other races, but they
do object to eating and sleeping with
them, just as the East Indians and
Moroccoan* object to eating and
sleoplng with the whites.
The Germans say that the English
fight with the other races, and so can
live with them.
The German soldiers subject the
prisoners to a great deal of humilia
tion, too. sparing no sneers or slurs
or ridicule, even to men wounded and
helpless.
It is no wonder the German women
worry about their missing sons,
fathers, husbands and sweethearts.
They worry more about them than
grieve over thrt dead, for, all through
Germany, It is known how the Ger
mans treat the prisoners of war, and
tho German women are afraid that
their own men aro being treated the
same.
I certainly feel sorry for any
American prlaonera or war that the
German* get. I advlae America to
light o quirk and strong that there
will be no ehnnee for Germane to
Jake them prlaonera.
"powers that be" In Germany
fl noticed this In Berlin espoclally)
continually tell the people that til"
revenge which the allies will take
on them, In case they (the allies) win
the war, will take the form of hor
rible, unspeakable outrages against
both men and women. This Is one
way they keep tho German nation de
termined to continuo the war to an
ultimate victory.

Co-operative harmony is the key
note of tlio Klein Bros, and Hengler
Minstrels, which
lileln Ilroa. nnd is the attraction
llengler Minstrels at the Orpheuni
to-night. The
sponsors for this organization assures
us that it is new this season, a very
judicious rounding-up of boys who
have beeu sweated out therefore In
tile minstrel game and have the ad
vantage of experience coupled with
enthusiasm and interest in their work.
It is said to be a very snappy min
strel company, and includes such
well-known performers as "The Three
Apollos," Denton, female impersona
tor; Joe Davis, and a host of others.
Dike the other pieces of the series,
it Is "Jlggs" Mahoney, the retired
Irish contractor,
"Bringing Up rich and pleasure
Father Abroad" loving, who keeps
the fun pot boiling.
This time he and Mrs. ".liggs" decide
to take a trip to their old home town
in Ireland, and it is there that the
fun evolves. For one thing, they're
met by a pair of clever swindlers
aboard the ship that takes them over,
and for another they buy a castle that
the trimmers have no more right to
sell than the Statue of Liberty in New-
York Harbor. They fall for the
castle stufT, and when they get to
Ireland their troubles begin and the
mirth of the audience paces wildly
and makes buttons hard to keep In
place. A company even more brll-I
llant than the hilarious organization
that made the "Father" series re
nowned throughout the country, is
accredited to the interpretation of
"Bringing Up Father Abroad," which
is the attraction at the Orpheum to
morrow, matinee and night.
If you desire a hearty laugh, and
wish to free yourself from all the
cares that this mundane
"Hnnn sphere invites and har
lind mots, we woud suggest
Krlta" that you subscribe immedi
ately for the latest Gus Hill
triumph, "Hans and Fritz," which Is
to be the attraction at the Orpheuni
Saturday, matinee nnd night.
"Any Man's Sister" will be present
ed here for the first time at the Or
pheum, Monday and Tues
"Any day, with daily matinees.
MUII'M The story deals with the
Slater" unequal struggle of men
and women, and maintains
that the same moral code should pre
vail for both sexes.
Madge Davis has come to New York
and fallen a victim to the temptations
of a great city. The lure of the glit
tering lights of Broadway and the
fascination of the cabarets claim her
and the play depicts her struggles to
get back to on the straight and nar
row path.

patriots," opened a three-day engage

triotic photodrama an exact duplicate
of the nag that inspired Francis Scott
Key to write the national anthem,
"The Star-Spangled Banner," Is seen.
This was the flag that floated over
Fort Henry, at Baltimore, when the
British fleet attacked the American
fort. At that time the national em
blem cohslsted of fifteen stripes and
fifteen stars, and measured 40x30 feet.
The duplicate of this flag, screened In

same as the original, which Is one of
the treasures of the United States
Government.

to-day. Being a native Japanese, Ses
sue Hayakawa, the star, has Impart
ed to the role of "Togo" all the charm
of the original, and in order that the
qualntness of his language may not
be lost through the "silent drama"
presentation, the titles are taken di
rect from Wallace Irwin's own stories
and "the honorable newspaperly
writer" has done much to add to the
attractiveness of the photoplay.
To-morrow and Thursday—Vivian
Martin will be presented In "Little
Miss Optimist." As a little "Newsle"
with n liig heart nnd a faculty for get
ting into all sorts of trouble, Vivian
Martin is In her element. But even
the "pop" on the beat Is a friend of
the little ray of sunshine, who shouts
"Wuxtry" up and down the streets of
a big city. Playing opposite Misi
Martin is the always popular Tom
Moore.

Keen Regret Found in Wiping
Out Old Commands
of Division
Camp Hancock, Augusta, Ga.,
Sept. 25.—Tills was a ilay of sorrow
and regret throughout every unit of
Pennsylvania's division quartered in!
the Held. The heart-breaking job of
physical reorganizing the division
which the Keystone State sent here
as a compact contribution to the
army jf Democracy was begun, and |
in its performance the officers and]
inert of the live dismembered regl
meiits found the most difficult task I
they had ever faced in their military I
cai eers.
They went about this "paper
work" with the enthusiasm of good
soldiers obeying orders, but every
scratch of a pen which made effec-j
tive the transfer of a battalion or]
company to a new command, or tO|
the depot brigade, was like the thrust!
of a knife in the hearts of officers;
who had spent years with the unit*!
tfiey brought here from Pennsylvania
cities and towns. In this sorrow they'
wore Joined by officers and men of|
the four regiments which wl'l make
up the infantry fighting strength of
tho Twenty-eighth Division, the old
First, Third, Tenth and Sixteenth.
Jt will be some time before physi
cal reorganization can be completed.
Transfers of men and property must
bo preceded by an immense amount
of what Is known in the army as
"paper work,"
Then it is desired that the Intensive
training schedule be interrupted as
little as possible. Meanwhile It will
be necessary to lengthen certain
company streets so that tho addi
tional strength of each company can
be accommodated. It Is not antici
pated that it will be necessary to
enlarge ines3 halls, as 250 men, tho
new strength of each company, can
be accommodated with a little' wise
management.
Signal Men Here Are
Being Sent to Widely
Scattered Points in U. S.
Members of the Signal Reserve |
Corps will likely adopt as their of
ficial code the words of a once pop
ular song, "We Don't Know Where
We're Going, But We're on Our
Way." •
Some time ago this popular branch
of tho service was advised through |
Sergeant Howard B. Kllinger here
that the Signal men would be sent
to crnr.p shortly. The camp Indi
cated was in New Jersey, not far
from New York City. Yesterday
severa l members of the Corps were
ndvifed to leave October 1. Some
will go to Camp Tipton, nt Faphank.
•T.ong Island; some to Camp Dix at
Wrlghtstown. N. J., and some to
f'amp Meade. Annapolis Junction,
Md. Individual transportation is
provided in each instance, and no |
one seems certain just what method
is being followed in selecting the
men who are leaving October 1.
In the meantime, every member
of the Signal Keserve Corps is hold
ing himself in readiness to leave
upon short notice.
Mark A. Messner. of Millersburg,
left yesterday for France. Messner
Is a stenographer, and is connected
with lieutenant Taylor's staff. Other
members of the Signal Corps may
go to France without preliminary
training.

FARMERS ASK
FOR EXEMPTION
Creasy Heads Delegation
That Calls on President
Wilson
Washington, Sept. 25. —William T.
Creasy, of Catawissa, Pa., heading a
committee representing farmers' or
ganizations this afternoon presented
to President Wilson a petition asking
that the question of help on the
farms be investigated and that tho
farm laborers and owners may be
kept at home. The petition is the
result of the inroads made on
farm labor by the drafting of the
men. Mr. Creasey a few weeks ago
appeared at the headquarters of the
i District Appeal Board of the second
Middle Judical District of Pennsyl
vania, at Ilarrisburg, and asked that
the farmers of Dauphin county be
dealt*with fairly as the question of
farm labor had become serious. Help
! cannot be secured on account of the
! high wages paid by industrial con-
I cerns, he said, and as a result t>'e
I percentage of laborers since the first
; of the year has fallen from 65 per
| cent, to 25 per cent.
FIRST RIDE ON TRAIN
I Waynesboro, Pa., Sept. 25.—Mr.
and Mrs. Zacharlas Yallance, of Mc

here with their daughter, Mrs. Levi
Cordell, had their first ride on a rail
road train or trolley car. Mrs. Val
lanoe Is 65 years old, but It was her
first time on either a steam or elec
tric train. She found her experience
a very pleasant one.
FOUND DEAD IN SHANTY
Dauphin, Pa., Sept. 25.Yesterday a
Hungarian known as "Todar" was
found dead in hir. shanty along tho
railroad line of the Zartman Lum
ber Company. It is believed he had
been dead for several days. He was

So far as Is known the man has no
relatives in this country.
THE GROWING GIRL
A girl when in her teens is passing
through a critical period of her life.
The transition from childhood to
maturity is not always easy; conse
iquently, in many cases health breaks
j down entirely and the girl goes into a
decline and dies young. If she es
i capes this fate, she may fall Into a
state of permanent ill-health. It is
of the utmost importance, in order to
insure normal and healthy develop
ment, that proper precautions be
taken, and nothing has proved more
tonic.
