ARRESTED FOR ASSAULT
Boarding Boss and Boarder In a Mix Up
Yesterday
Y osin Truca was arrested by Con
stable Peter R. Day last evening
charged with assaulting Marko Zukar.
The former operates a foreign boarding
house on the West Side and the latter
is one of his boarders.
Thursday the two men, in the best
of spirits, witnessed the big firemen's
parade at Harrisburg. After the pro
cession had passed, it is said the two
men visited several hotels and the ex
hilarating liquid which was consumed
made them quarrelsome.
When they reached home that night
they got into an argument about some
boarding money due Yosin by Marko.
The latter, who works at the local rail
null, has only had work about two
weeks in the last eight or ten and was
unable to pay the bill.
At this juncture, it is alleged, Yosin,
who is a strong man. grasped the de
linquent boarder by the throat and at
tempted to throw Marko out of his
house.
At the hearing before Squire Dickin
son this morning the matter was amic
ably settled and the case dismissed.

TIME TO PLANT BULBS
Those Who Love Early Spring Flowers j
Should Plant Now
''-Vow is the best time t6 plant j
I bulbs for spring flowering,'' said H. |
A. Holmes, of the Holm%s Seed Coin-1
pany, 119 South Second street. If!
I you are a lover of flowers you will ap- I
; preeiate the first to bloom after a long |
; winter, especially crocus tulips, narcis j
■ BUS, hyacinths, .jonquils and daffodils, i
with their bright and beautiful colors. |
It's wonderful how popular they have!
' become. Our sales of bulbs* grows
! larger every year. This year we had
: an unusual demand. The one predomi
| nating reason for this increase is the ;
| care we exercise in buying our stocks, j
j We import most of the bulbs we sell, j
I We get them from the largest and best i
I growers in Holland. On account of J
| the European war many dealers had ■
j trouble in getting a supply of first !
j class and first size bulbs. ' We have!
been importing for years and had our I
j consignments on the way to America '
when the war broke out. We certainly !
I have some magnificent varieties. Prices
! are about the same as last year."
j Owing to the fact that the work on i
the new subway interferes in some in- j
j stance with people getting to the !
| Holmes Seed Company store, a repre- j
j sentative will call on customers with
i specimen bulbs if requested to do so. !
i A postal os, phone call will receive!
prompt attention.

POLITICS DISCUSSED
; IN THE U. B. CONFERENCE
, i : -—-
Resolution Pledging the Body to Vote
for No Candidate Not Pledged to
Oppose Liquor Interests Is Adopted
t —Lebanon Valley College Grows
(Special to the Star-Independent.)
'Mechanicpburg, Oct. 10.—In the ses
sion yesterday of the Pennsylvania con-
torence of the United Brethren Church
1 the Rev. J>r, .1. L. Grimm, of Waytes
j | boro, gave his re{>ort on temperance,
i which was an expression of the attitude
I of the conference and the church to
-1! ward the solution of the temperance
( I question through pol'itii-3.
He said: • ■ ,\o man in politics, no
• | ir.ai'ter w hat his personal record may
• be, is in position to discharge his duties
lif supported by and reviving orders
| trom the liquor traffic." iHe offered;
i tho resolution that the conference
;! I lei 'K e itself to me for no candidate
j who will not pledge his opposition to
tho liquor interests, or who is supported !
; by the liquor interests. 'Phe report was !
adopted with applause.
The Rev. iF, P. Ho'lso'pple, superin- !
ten-dent of the 'Harrisburg district ot !
the Anti-Saloon League, gave an ad
dress, in which he said that t'he pms !
Pectfl for the victories to the cause o-f •
•temperance were greater than ever be-!
fore in the.history of Pennsylvania.
A resolution was offered urging the
Sunday schools of the conference to,
teach the temperance lesson on Sunday,
November 1, two days before the elec-!
I tion day, instead of November 8, a? I
j scheduled in the national lessons. Bishop I
|W. M. Weeklev said to the conference in
this connection:
| "I hope every preacher will lay aside
! his former political preference and vote'
for the man who is right.''
T'he report of the committee on the
pastors' reports showed that everv
charge throughout the conference had
paid the assessments for the general
| work of the church in full, and that
t'here was a net gain in membership of
1.280, making the total membership
of the various charges of the confer
ence 21,01 9.
An offering for the sustentation fund
of the forward movement of the confer
ence and preachers' aid fumf was taken
at this time, amounting to nearlv S6OO.
In the midst of the business of the
afternoon session Bishop Weeklev turn
, ed aside from the routine and held a
short, lively, spiritual experience meet
ing, calling upon the older members of
the conference, ministers and laymen to
tell where they were von verted and
spiritual experience. Among others who
spoke was Dr. Z. X. <OoJestock, of this
place, who was converted eighty-five
years ago at the age of 6. and has (leen
in the ministry for seventy years, verv
porbably the oldest living minister in
t'he denomination in point of service.
The Rev. A. M. Staniets of the Tvii '
| theran church was introduced to the
, conference. The Rev. G. D. Gossard, D.
ID„ presidentj)f Lebanon Valley College,
j made a re-port of that institution. The
j report showed marvelous progress in the
j growth of The number of students in a't-
I tendance. Ten years ago there were
j twenty-two students in the freshman
class, fifty-seven in last year's class and
one hundred and four in the freshman
class this year, almost twice as large as
last year, and almost five times as large
as ten years ago. He declared that, "it
was the largest freshman class ever en
tering any educational institution of the
! church in its history.

ANTWERP FALLS: GERMANS NOW OCCUPYINC WHOLE CITY
Continued From Flrmt I'agr.
| evacuated by the eßlgians yesterday." The French offi
eial statement to-day says only that it is announced that
' Antwerp was taken yesterday hut that the conditions
under which it was occupied by the Germans are not yet
known.
Lo-day's news dispatches indicate that early reports
of the damage done by the bombardment probably were
jexagegrated and that the cathedral of Notre Dame and
other historic structures may have escaped injurv.
It is believed in London that the tiual resistance was
! made by a sum 11 garrison who were sacrificed in order to
permit the escape of the Belgian army which is now re
, ported to be somewhere between Aiitwrep and Ostend
j trying to make its way to the lines of the allies.
; German aggression at various places along the line of
the field fighting is reported from Paris which, however,
declares, that the battle continues under satisfactorv con
ditions. The announcement of the French War Office
says that the entire battle front of the allies has been
i maintained in spite of violent attacks by the Germans at
several points. v
! Cavalry lighting on the left wing of the allies between
La Bassee and Cassel continues wit-hot notable result.
Progress to the north of the Oise and in the region of
St. Mihiel is claimed for French arms,
i Paris reports also partial successes by the Russians on
j the east Prussian frontier and that the siege of Przemysl
I continues under conditions favorable to the Russians.
A news dispatch from Russian Poland says that a Rus
sian attack extending from Wilkowyszki along a front
j of sixty miles to a point below Lyek, East Prussia, was
| repulsed, the Russians losing heavily while the German
! losses were light.
A dispatch from Amsterdam asserts that Gennanv is
j expecting momentarily a declaration of war upon her bv
| Portugal.
i Christian refugees ai'e reported as arriving at Cyprus
from Turkish ports. They report great unrest in Turkey.
The trial of the assassins of the Archduke Francis
Ferdinand and his consort will be opened in Sarajevo, the
capital of Bosnia, on Monday. Twenty-one Servians and
four Croatians, ten of the total being under 20 vears of
age, are assued of high treason.

FRENCH CITIES ARE MARKED
FOR CERTAIN DESTRUCTION
London, Oct. 10, 3.35 A. M.—The \
correspondent of the "Express'' in!
Paris telegraphs the following:
"Tho immediate objective of the
German army is now 110 longer Paris,
■l> ut the channel ports. To sum up the
German plan—the first blow ort Paris
having failed—the second blow must I
be aimed at England.
"The new line of the opposing forces
means that northern France ip destined |
to suffer a desolation similar to that
already visited on Belgium. All of
franco s rioh cities in the north have
been marked for certain destruction
and ruin.
"The French general staff is still
I confident of success, but it is recognized
| that there can be no decisive victory
while the masses engaged are so enor
mous. It is possible to hope for the de
■feat of the enemy's plan only if there
can be a constant stream of reinforce
ments. "
