Harrisburg Women on
Steamer Now a Transport,
Torpedoed by Germans
The American Army transport.
Mount Vernon, which was recently
torpedoed by the Hun was formerly
the Krotfprizessin Cecilie. In 1914
when the war opened, Mrs. Paul
Smith, of 2432 North Second street
and her friend, Mrs. Robert Neal
were aboard the Kronprlzessin Cecilie
on their way to Europe, when it was
ordered to return.
The Mount Vernon is the second of
the great German liners taken over
when this country went to war to be
torpedoed. The first was the Presi
dent Lincoln, sunk recently some 400
miles off the coast of France while
homeward bound.
The Mount Vernon is of 19,503 gross
tons, and before conversion had a
passenger-carrying capacity of about
2,000. Her speed is 23A4 knots an
hour.
Before the war the Kronprizessin
Cecllie plied between New York and
European ports, and when the war
began she was on the high seas,
bound for Cherbourg and Plymouth
with $l2 000,000 in gold bullion in
addition to many passengers. In
structions were sent to her master
from Germany by radio to return to
this country, and the liner immediate
ly put back, arriving at Bar Harbor,
Me. She later was moved to Boston.
Noted Shakespearean
Expert Now Here
frof. John T. Wenyon, pronounced
by eminent critics to be the greatest
living Interpreter of the Shakespear
ean plays, is now a resident of Har
risburg, living at 107 Locust street.
Prof. Wenyon recently came to this
city in the service of the British gov
ernment, acting as inspector of muni
tions at the Steelton plant of the
Bethlehem Steel Company.
Among the numerous favorable
criticisms of Prof. Wenyon's work is
the following, culled from the Ta
coma .News:
"Professor Wenyon gave a recital
of Richard 111 at the Ninth Street
theater on Friday evening to a very
appreciative audience. He has a rich
voice and a fine stage appearance,
and showed marked ability and a
thorough knowledge of the great art
by the rapid changing from part to
part as he assumed the different
characters throughout the play. He
was in close touch with the heavy
characters and is without doubt one
of the finest exponents of Shakes
peare Tacoma has heard." *
Efforts are being made to Induce
Prof. Wenyon to open a class for in
struction in the dramatic arts during
his stay in Harrisburg.

West Front Crisis Less
Serious Than Others, Is
Hun General's Comment
By Associated Press
Amsterdam, Sept. 9. In a lec
ture on the war in Berlin, Lieuten
ant General Baron Von Freytage-
Loringhoven, deputy chief of the
general staff, contended the present
crisis on the western fror' was less
serious than many others during the
course of the war.
General Von Freytage-Loring
hoven argued that nothing like a
decision was in prospect. He said:
"The thing now is to push things
so that Great Britain and America
recognize our invincibility in defen
sive war. We lack neither men, war
material, nor raw material to hold
out for a long time. We must, how
ever, not slacken in our determin
ation, which must remain alive in the
army and at home. All that might
divide us must be postponed until the
end of the war.'

ARMY TRANSPORT
Mount Vernon, Hit by Enemy
Torpedo, Off Coast
of France
Washington. Sept k 9.—Thirty-five
persons, principally members of the
fireroom crew of the U. S. S. Mount
Vernon, formerly the German liner
Kronprinzessln Cecilie, were killed
when the ship was struck by a tor
pedo Thursday last 200 miles oft the
French coast, It was announced yes
terday by the Navy Department.
The official announcement states
that Senator James Hamilton Lewis,
of Illinois, was one of the passengers
returning from Europe and is among
those reported safely landed. G. J.
Saflan of 433 Wood street, Philadel
phia. was one of those killed.
The Mount Vernon is one of the
great German ships taken over by the
United States, and has been used as
a transport. It was on its return to
the United States when struck. The
I estimate of its carrying ca'pacity as
a troopship places it as near that
! of the old Vaterland.
: The news that so many of the
! ship's complement had been killed
was a great surprise to the navy of
ficials, as the first reports on Friday
indicated that there were few casu
alties. The Mount Vernon was able
to put tack into port under its own
steam and at a fourteen-knot clip,
which was an indication that it had
not been hit in a vital part so far
as its motive power was concerned.
The official dispatch from Vice Ad
miral Sims states:
"The torpedo struck the ship on
the starboard side, flooding No. 4
fireroom, but the extent of the dam
age is not stated."
This transport is the first of the
big United States ships to be hit
while a senator or other distinguish
ed official was on board.

In a letter recently received,
one of the largest optical
houses in England stated that
they do not accept any new
accounts and every customer's
order must take Its turn, re
gardless of the order or the
customer; and that it is con
sidered prompt service to turn
out simple spherical lenses in
two weeks, beoause more fre
quently the customer waits
six to eight weeks.
How long it will be before
we are confronted with simi
lar conditions here, although
not so severe, is a question.
Every day the delays in get
ting lenses and mountings
grow larger and no doubt will
get worse as the scarcity of
help in the factories becomes
more acute.
The safe plan is to Insure
against delay by having an
extra pair of glasses on hand,
in case of breakage or loss.
At presentT have a large stock
of lenses and mountings which
were bought before the sharp
advances took place. I am
giving my patrons the advan
tage of my foresight, and am
only charging the prices that
"prevailed when I placed my
orders.
Now is the good time to
get eyeglasses at an advantage
in price and time.
