C.P.ROGERS KILLED
BY AUTO NEAR HOME
[Continued from First Page.]
The news of the accident quickly
spread throughout the city, where
Mr. Rogers had a host of friends,
and the hospital was queried numer
ous times for details. Mr, Rogers
formerly resided at 128 Walnut
street before he moved Into his new
home near Mechanicsburg.
Mr. Rogers had been connected
with the department for more than
eight years. • He came to Harrisburg
as Deputy Auditor General In 1910,
having been appointed to that posi
tion by Auditor General Un
der this administration he had
charge of practically all expendi
tures, and when Auditor General
Powell went into office Mr. Rogers
was retained as special deputy and
had served continuously in that po
sition since.
Previous to coming to Harrisburg
he was engaged in the practice of
law at Corry, Erie county, and
tanked high among that county's
banister-. Several years ago, when
File county eiccted a president judge
foi its courts, lie was prominently
mentioned as a possible candid; te,
L-ut he declined to have Ills name
submitted to county voters. In ad
dition to being a member of the
Erie county bar ,he had qualified to
appear before any Federal court, unv
court in Pennsylvania as well as
courts of a number of other states.
But in addition to his law prac
tice. Mr. Rogers took an active in
terest in other business ,-natfers. He
was connected with his brothers' ir.
the transaction of a steel business
t'-ading under the name of tho Rog
ers Steel Company. He also was in
teresfed in the real estate business
before entering the state service.
1 hree brothers and one sister of
Mr. Rogers are in the United States
service. Two of them, one a captain
of engineers, have been in 1- ranee
for some time, and both have been
severely gassed nnd slightly wound
ed. A third brother, William Rogers,
is a paymaster in the United States
Navy, and the sister, Mirs Alexan
dria Rogers, is in Fran .'a in Red
Cross work.
jr addition he Is survived by his
wife: his father, Colorei Ohauncey
Ropers, another brother and two
more sisters.
Auditor General Snyder paid a
I high tribute to the personal char
| acter and efficiency in office of Mr.
; Rogers. "He was one of the most
competent men in public service
anywhere," said Mr. Snyder, who
was greatly depressed by the acci
dent. "In his death the state of
Pennsylvania loses the most useful
accounting officer in its employ. It
will require a full decade to qualify
his equal. The kind of service he
rendered cannot be measured in
words and was of a high and most
patriotic character. This depart
ment owes to him in large part all
that it has accomplished in recent
years. Personally, words are inade
quate to express the loss I feel."

Constantin Sternberg's
Recital Pleases Many
! When a pianist lias been before the
public for over four decades we are
a little too much given to assume
| that he ought to be retired with an
old age pension. With the above
astonishing-musical record Mr. Stern
berg was the more astonishing in his
display iast night of an undiminished
superabundant technique. His sane
interpretation of tjie rarely-heard
"Pastorale" Soijata of Beethoven
and the quaint little Andante of Ph.
E. M. Bach were unusual. None the
less in the taste displayed In his
Chopin group of four Preludes,
especially in the picturesque reading
given the Bolero. Mr. Sternberg sur
passed himself, howeaer, in the' as
tonishing and unexpected virtuosity
display in the three pieces by Du
bois, Spiriter and Arensky, and most
of all in his three original composi
tions, the last of which was the so
well-known "Concert Etude," which
his friend. Josef Hofmann. lias made
such a marvelous record of. Mr.
Sternberg's adaptation of the IJszt,
Faust, Paraphrase, which, being a
pupil of that first and greatest of
modern pianists, lie, of course, Inter
preted authoritatively as well as
gave a dazzling exhFbitlon of virtu
osity. At the close the enthusiastic
I audience called for two encores and
| he gave two more of his own compo
• sistions. Not the least enjoyable part
of the recital was the talk which pre
ceded each number made up in great
part of personal reminisceances, the
more too, because Mr. Sternberg is a
delightful as well as a witty "racon
teur." In fact he calls his recital a
"piano conversazione" and he does
that part of it no less successfully
and charmingly than the playing of
his numbers. Mr. Sternberg made bis
I audience realize that art and the ar
| t!st are inseparable.

Define Rights in War
"Belligerents during the war had
a right to carry on war. Neutrals
had the right to carry on trade. But
if there was .a collisiofa between the

to give way to the imperious pri
