POLICE BELIEVE AEROPLANE
STORY OF SHIPS CROSSING
ST. LAWRENCEUNf OUNDEO
Ottawa, Out., Feb. 15.—After an
all-night watch for the air visitors in
three or four aeroplanes who were re
ported to have crossed the St. Lawrence
river at Morristown, N. V.. and to have
dropped a lire yesterday as they passed
over Brockville, the Dominion police
and officials were of the opinion to-day
that the report was unfounded.
The chief of police of Ogdensburg,
N. V,, 12 miles down the St. Lawrence
river from Brockville. had heard noth
ing of the passage of the aeroplanes
over Brockville or of excitement inci
dent thereto. He said, however, that
on Friday iast a farmer, living live
miles from Ogdensburg. had reported
the passage of an aeroplane over his
farm, traveling in the direction of the
Canadian border.
After receiving the report last
night, Premier Borden notified Colonel
Sherwood, Commissioner of the Domin
ion police. The lights around the Par
liament building, the royal mint and
the residence of the Governor General
were immediately ordered extinguished.
This was the first time in its history
that the mint has been darkened.
Sharpshooters from the Dominion po
lice were stationed on Parliament Hill
and guards were held in readiness to
repel an attack should one be at
tempted.
The Duke of Connaught. Governor
General of Canada, is on an inspection
trip to Winnipeg, but the Duchess aud
the Princess Patricia are in the capital
and were informed of the precautions
taken to guard the city.
BORCHA'S CAPTURE OPENS
ROAD TO COPPER WORKS
London, Feb. 15. 4.25 A. M. —A dis
patch to the "Times" from Petrograd
says:
"The 'Bourse Gazette's' Tiflis cor
respondent declares that the capture by
the Russians of Borcha, a village be
yond the river Ohorokh, Asia Minor,
which the enemy had converted into an
almost impregnable fortress, opens the
road to the Zanzal copper smelting
works which the Turks seized at the
beginning of the war and are holding
for German engineers and workmen to
take possession of. It is a valuable
property upon which the Germans had
east longing eyes before the war."
Bussians Fortifying Bukowina Capital
London, Feb. 15, 3.17 A. M.—The
Russians are fortifying Czernowitz. cap

AMERICA MUST BECAREFL'L
Dr. Smucker Tells Congregation Coun-1
try Must Not Lose Its Soul
In a sermon, yesterday morning, full'
of live things Dr. Clayton A. j
j said:
"It is time for the American folk 1
to stop and think. American export- i
trade, defipite old difficulties anil new
ones, is growing by lea**, and bounds.
But what shall it profit the American I
republic if she gain the trade of the ;
whole world and lose her own soul '
the soul of her unity in thought and
'feeling of citizenship?
"That is the danger of rh e situation
confronting this nation to-i&y. Under
the shadow of that danger it is time
for the plainest of plain speaking. .See
ing that danger, he is no American who
sits silent.
'' The European war-madness has in- j
vaded American business, finance, com-1
meree and industry. Because of it
some American men walk the streets in i
despair and some American women and
children are in want of food. It Willi
take our wit an 1 will, all our and i
strength, to remedy these evils at'
home aud to do what we may to bind
up the wounds and relieve the dis
tresses abroad.
"Keep the war out of American pili-'
ties, the American city, the American !
home. Bar it everlastingly from
American citizenship. This we can and
this we must. When temoted to do
.otherwise let us remember the words!
-i>okcn by Him who spake as never
man spake:
" 'lf a kingdom be divided against
itself, that kingdom cannot stand:!
Every kingdom divided against itself'
shall be brought to desolation; and
every < ity or house divided against it-1
self shall not stand.' " 'i

SEERS NEW KIND
OF EMPLOYMENT
Man Long Deprived of tlie Use of His
Eyes Has So Far Recovered It That
He Applies for Work at Govern
ment's Bureau in the Postoffice
Among the score of applicants for
work who have taken out blanks at the
United States government's employ
ment bureau in the local postotliiie since
it opened for business several days ago,
is a man who had been blind for nearly
three years, but whose sight was re
stored in a successful operation in this
city seven weeks ago and who, with his
now strengthened sight, is eager to get
work after his enforced idleness that
he may gain a livelihood for himself
and wife.
It was years ago that an accident de
stroyed tiie sight in the right eye of
Kdward Aurand of 1625 Logan street,
and cataracts in the left eye then
brougtht blindness. Seven weeks ago to
day au operation was performed in the
Harrisbarg Polyclinic hospital on the
left eye by Dr. Samuel Z. special
ist, and-sight was restored.
The operation is considered a note
worthv one by members of the hospital
staff and many other city physicians
and surgeons who witnessed the opera
tion, since the new novocain method
which is at present creating lively in
terest was used for the first t'imie in
this city and with marked success.
Sold Candy to School Children
Mr. Anrand is a middle-aged man.
He came to this city twenty years ago,
and was the conductor on the first car
that crossed the Walnut street bridge
in the lines of the Valley Railways
Company, on which he was employed.
It was when his eyesight failed that
he was thrown out of employment.
During the last year, while blind, the
unfortunate man gained support by
making his way to school buildings and
selling candy made by his wife. He has
been a familiar figure on the edges of
t'he playgrounds at up-town schools,
and has made hinise-lf a favorite with
the children through his wares.
He always had difficulty iu getting
about, he says, and several times nar
rowly escaped death in crossing streets.
Can See Across River Now
During the o;>eration at the Poly
clinic hospital, v.hieh occupied fifteen
minutes, Mr. Auraud was aware, he
says, of all that was going ou. The
pain, of course, was 'leadened b* the
novocain. W'heu the bandages were re
moved later, he says, he remembers see
ing first the face of the surgeon, then
j he exclaimed:
"Now I can see you, doctor. Thank
God!" Then he thought of a friend in
this city in :» |>osition sfimilar to his,
and he rejoiced at the idea that the
sight of that man might aleo be re
stored.
There is a striking similarity between
this case and the case of a Scranton
woman who not long ago had cataracts
removed in Philadelphia and whose first
thought after the bandages were re
moved was that a blind friend of hers
in S'ranton might receive sight through
| a similar operation.
Mr. Aurand is undergoing careful
treatment, anl sa>s his sight is
strengthening rapidly, and with great
delight lie assures those who speak to
bim on the subject that he can "see
clear across the river now." He says
his sight is better to-day than it had
been for twenty years.

IWO TOOTHERS WILL TELL
OF THE "TWILIGHT SLEEP"
I Will lecture Exclusively to Women
Next Monday on the Wonderful
New Method of Treatment Which Is
Little Understood in This Country
Xext Monday, February 22. will be
'•Ladies' Day" at the Majestic The
atre. Tlie audience will be composed ex
clusively of ■women with the exception
of such practicing physicians as may
care to attend, and the speakers on the
stage will be women. Even the ushers
will he replaced by girls. The occasion
for this boycott of the male sex will be
the appearance of Mrs. Mary Sumner
Boyd and Mrs. Francis X. Carmody for'
the purpose of delivering lectures on
the much discussed and little understood
subject of "Twilight Sleep."
Although tlie famous Dr. Gauss and
i Dr. Krouig have treated more than tive
! thousand cases during the last ten years
!in Freiburg, Germany, no whisper of
this boon to womankind ever penetrat
ed to the United States until a few
short months ago. Since then the words
'"Twilight Sleep" have been ou every
one's lips.
Recently tlie "Twilight Sleep As
sociation" was formed by Mrs. John
Jacob Astor, Mrs. Orme Wilson, Miss
Marguerite Tracy whose magazine ar-l
tides on "Twilight Sleep" first a.wak- j
ene<l public interest, and Oliver promi-'
norit women, with the object of sending j
on tour such of their members as had
actually become "Twilight Sleep"!
mothers at the Woman's Hospital in )
Freiburg.
It is hoped to enlighten womeni
throughout the United States as to the
benefits of this treatment and eventu
ally to endow a hospital and training [
' school where women can receive the 1
Iproper treatment when their babies are!
born without leaving their native coun-i
try, and where physicians can be in-:
structed in the proper use of the drug!
" Scoipolajnin" which produces the i
physical condition of senselessness to [
pain, now kno<wn as "Twilight Sleep."
Both the women who will speak at I
the Majestic are the mothers of babies |
born in Freiburg and are menubers of
this association, under whose auspices I
these lectures are to be held. Such!
money as they earn by theit talks, is :
turned over by them to the treasury of j
tho association. The prices for these!
talks are from 25 cents to sl. The
sale of seats opens next Friday.

SECOND SUICIDE BELIEVED
DUE TO BANK'S FAILURE
Body of Farmer Found Hanging From
Tree in Rear of His Barn Gives
Rise to New Rumors in Schaeffers
town Trouble
Schaefferstown, Pn., Feb. 15.—A
second suicide, traceable it. is said to
the looting of the First National bank
here, was recorded yesterday morning
in tihe discovery of the dead body of
Levi Kline, a widely known auctioneer
and Betihel township farmer.
When the disclosures' of the misap
plication of the funds of the local bank
by Alvin Binner, the suicide cashier,
showed D. B. Kieffer, the Middletown
cattle dealer, to be heavily involved,
Kline became much worried. He was
engaged to some extent in the cattle
business and had dcaliirgs with Kieffer,
but it is not known that he was in any
way financally interested in any of
Kieffer's papers. It is thought, rather,
t'hat Kline, in view of the financial
troubles of Kieffer, was led to magnify
his own money troubles and, fearful of
his ability to meet his obligations, de
cided on suicide.
Kiefer late Saturday afternoon made
good his obilgations, amounting to be
tween $12,000 and \ 14,000 covering
overdrafts, etc. Kiefer spent Saturday
afternoon at the bank going over his
indebtedness and was accompanied by
his attorney, Jo'hn R. Geyer. Like
Squire Horst, who gave a cashier's
check on a local bank for SIO,OOO, he
contends that the accounts of Alvin Sin
ner, the suicide cashier, 'have done him
an injustice and that his indebtedness
is not as large as would appear from
Binner'B muddled accounts.
Kiefer's payment brings the total
available assets of the bank up to $22,-
000 of the money counted upon and
leaves only the $15,000 bond to be
[aid.
Members of Kline's family are still
unable to throw any lifcht on the subject
of his financial affairs, explaining that
he had always refrained from speaking
of them in their hearing. I'riaih B.
Horst, president of the local bank, last
evening declared that, so far as he
knew, there was none of Kline's paper
in the Schaefferstown bank and neither
did Kline's name appear on any pa)>er
of Kieffer's or any other customer of
the bank. Kline is said to have done
business of late principally with the
Fredericksiburg National bank, and it
was impossible to learn to-day to what
extent iie'was indebted to the bank.
It is said that Kline had personal
notes in the Fredericsburg institution;
that he also was the endorser on other
paper held by the bank, and that he
iiad feared the worst in view of the
local bank failure.

until all of the equipment has been'
transferred. The company will beg<in
to increase its force at once, and ex
pects soon to have as many as a hun
dred persons at work. It has already
brought several new families to Har

action will be used by the piano manu
facturers in their plaver-jdanos. The
company already have orders for the
