LANSING SWIFT TO BRAND FAKE PEACEREPORTS News Dispatch Sent Out by United Press Denounced as i the Most Colossal Fake Washington, Nov. B.—What la re garded tn officialdom here as the tnost colossal news fake ever per petrated upon the American people was the publication yesterday through a dispatch from the United Press that Germany had signed the terms of armistice laid down by Marshal Foch and that the war was ■ over. This news dispatch, sent from Paris, was utterly without founda tion of fact. Offictal denial of Its authenticity was made by Secretary; of State Lansing after he had taken ♦he trouble to cable to Paris about it. : The news organization's dispatch j on the ending of the war had the effect of startling the entire country. In every city the news spread, "the j war is over," and the country at! large took it to be authentic. The official denial of the accuracy j of the United Press report was made ' by the Secretary of State in the aft- j ernoon, immediately after having re- i ceived a dispatch from Paris. Fifth Avenue to Be Paved With Silver When Actors Work For United Drive New York. Nov. B.—Fifth avenue ! will be paved with silver, and, if the , silver runs out, with gold. Wheel- j barrows will be used when it comes • time to lift the pavement and take ! It away. Two great big banks are saving up the dollars and hope to have j enough. Although coppers don't count, the police will watch to see j that nobody steals anything, which j nobody will try to do. "Deteckatuffs" j will mingle freely with the crowds. | Glorious damosels, released from their golden bars, will incite the multitude. All this because George M. Cohan offhandedly remarked yesterday j morning that the Friars Club, whose abbot he is, would raise more money than would the Lambs,for the Unit ed War Work Fund Campaign. Some | tattle-tale carried this observation to William Collier, who is nothing if | he isn't a Lamb, and instantly Wil- i liam called up George. "George." said William, "did you I eay ?" "Sure I said it, Willie," said George, j Challcn *c Is Accepted Even by inference it must not be i suggested that Messrs. Collier and ' Cohan, both family men, ever gam ble. But five minutes after they : stopped telephoning they met in the I presence of a third person, who j couldn't possibly have been a stake- j holder, and In some unidentified way the Lambs and the Friars were j pledged to go out into Fifth ave nue during the War Work Week, ' the Lambs vowing they'd gather j more money than the Friars and the ' Friars mos' <> dottles at all : druggist* or manufacturer, postpaid, i ECKMAN LABORATORY Philadelphia FRIDAY EVENING, PARCEL MAY BE SENT TO WORKERS j Christmas Boxes For Y.

Mary Pickford Is Sued For $138,000 Xew York. For services alleged to have been Instrumental in en abling Mrs. Gladys Mary Moore, bet ter known as Mary Pickford, to draw a salary of SIO,OOO a week for ( 104 weeks from June 24. 1916, from i the Pickford Film Corporation. Mrs. j Cora Carrington Wilkenlng. theat rical and literary agent, brought | suit before Supreme Court Justice |Delehanty and a Jury to recover j $138,000 In commissions from the | star. Mary Pickford's income for •the last two years from the film com- I pany, the lawyers for both sides : agreed, was $1,000,000. Mary took j the witness stand, but played to a i small house. | Mrs. Wilkening testified the de- I fendant expressed her inability to see I why Charlie Chaplin was getting a I higher salary than herself and agreed | to pay the plaintiff 10 per-cent, com mission if the latter was successful : in getting a better contract for her. She told of her visits to a Benjamin B. Hampton and of Hampton's offer |of $7,000 a week to Miss Pickford i with a 50 per cent, ownership in a corporation to be named after her. The contract was never consummated. I Thg witness said she brought, about ! a meeting later in her office between ; William Randolph Hearst, editor- I publisher, and the defendant, j After several other dickers with film magnates, Mrs. Wilkening de- I clared she was successful in negotl ! ations that resulted in Adolph Zuker i of the Famous Players Film Corpor -1 atlon signing a contract with Miss ! Pickfofd, whereby the latter was to i get SIO,OOO weekly, a bonus of $300,- ! 000 and $40,000 to recompense her for ! looking after scenarios for four ; weeks. | Miss Pickford denied all these ' statements. She admitted meeting I Mr. Hearst in the plaintiff's office, I but insisted that Mrs. Wilkening had i not introduced her to him. ; "I had met Mr. Hearst, before," 1 smiled Miss Pickford. '"but not in a business way. 1 danced with him." The actress explained that Mrs. Wilkening telephoned to her that Mr. Hearst was at her office and had a good offer to make. When she met Mr. Hearst he .spoke about the wea ther and "other things" until she said she asked him about the busi ness offer. She declared he express ed surprise, saying he had heard the socalled offer was to come from her. Nothing came of the meeting, i Miss Pickford segued relieved | when the court ordered adjuornment for ten minutes while the City Hall bell and countless sirens announced I the Austrian surrender. I After recess Miss Pickford explain ed that the Hampton negotiations were broken off because Hampton did i not have $50.1X00 to bind his option, and further because she had learned that he was marketing his contract with her. The case was adjourned until to morrow morning.

In . many a Jewish household the in famous Anttochus Epiplianes of the story will be compared to his suc cessor in spirit, the Inhuman, and now no less infamoiA Emperor of Germany, Wllhelm 11. Like his modern embodiment, the ancient tyrant of Syria found tho land of Israel a stumbling block in the pathway of his ambition for ter | ritoriul expansion. In order to de- j : stroy all vestiges of independence in : lJudea, this tyrant sought to crush! the Jewish religion and to set up his , pagan cult in its place. Then Judah! the Lion arose and with God's help ] smote the hosts of the Syrian and i rolled back tlie armies of oppression. The anniversary is therefore 1 | known as the Festival of Rededica- j tion (Chanukah). It Is a home fes- ] tlval and Is signalized by lighting I candles on each of the eight even- I ings In these troubled days the heart I of every Jew will go forth to the Bel- I gian sufferers and will find encour agement In the message of the festi val, which is addressed to Belgium j as well as to Israel and to all hu manity.

Several books filed yesterday and to day fall to give the nanae of the camp where the votes were taken and the figures are jumbled, making endless possibilities where close con tests may be Involved. Less than half of tho commissioners have brought ire their returns. When H. L. Reinhold, of Ard more, who took the votes of the sol diers at League Island .Navy Yard, arrived, he presented just one book and reported the ballots had' been burned. His reason for this course was that "they used to do that way fifty-six years ago" when he was ac tive in election work. Deputy Sec retary of the Commonwealth George D. Thorn, promptly rose to the oc casion and finding out what had been done got a statement and will certify the figures on the book filed here to the Interested counties. Mr. Reinhold is advanced in years. It transpired to-day that when William M. Hargest, Deputy Attor ney General, who was a commission er to Fort Ogelthorpe. found that no one had been sent to Camp Forrest where there were many men, he or ganized a board there, too, and held an election.
