NEWS IN GENERAL. BERLIN. PA eS RN NG T°
Miss Lorene Garman has returned
70 Scottish soldiers were killed and
about 400 injured in a railroad wreck
near Carlisle, England. ;
In behalf of the bishops of the Meth-
odist Episcopal Church, Bishop Earl
Cranston of Washington has made
public a special “Call to Prayer,”
appointed to be read in all the Meth-
odist churches. “Not once a day only
nor merely when convenient, but in
our every thought of God, let the
cry of our hearts incessantly ascend
for the peace of Europe and of the
world,” says the appeal.
From Germany with its millions
fighting east and west reached Phil
adelphia port a cargo to gladden the
hearts of American children celebrat-
ing the birth of the Prince of Peace.
Upwards of 400 cases of Christmes
toys, made by the famous toy houses
of Germany, comprised the bulk of
the cargo. They were made months
ago, then shipped by rail to Rotter- |.
dam and loaded into the Dutch
steamship Sommelsdyk, which brought
them to this country.
The information is given out that
Germany has resumed submarine at:
tacks upon unarmed merchant ves-
sels. Report says that it was due
solely to the bravery of those on board
of a Norwegian ship, a few days ago
that the passenger and crew of one
of the torpedoed vessels were saved.
The significance of this information
as revealing the attitude of German-
ny toward the United States and the
demands made by the president fol-
lowing the sinking of the Lusitania
is variously estimated. Represenia-
tives of the administration profess to
believe that has no bearing whatever
upon the differences between the U-
nited States and Germany. The cir-
cumstances, however, do not warrant
such conclusions. Immediately after
the sinking of the Lusitania there
was a suspension of submarine war-
fare by Germany.
On Sunday Italy declared war on
the Austrian-Hungarian Empire with
three million men, fully equipped
with arms and ammunition, it is ex-
pected, will be put in the field within
a month. Germany has now declared
war on Italy, its former ally. Italy is
the twelfth nation to plunge into the
world war now in its tenth month.The
empires, kingdoms and republics now
fighting are: Great Britain, including
Canada, India, Egypt and the Union of
South Africa, Australia, New Zealand
and other island possessions; Russia;
France and her north Africa depen-
dencies; Belgium; Italy; Servia;
Montenegro; Japan, which helped
drive the Germans out of China and
seized Germany's islands in the Pa-
cific; Portugal, which has an army
fighting Germans in Africa; Germany
with her South African possessions;
Austria-Hungary; Turkey; In addition
Persia is overrun by Turkish troops
and is helpless. China is at Japan's
mercy. The whole world seems
to be war-magi” Altogether there are
nearly thirty million men now en-
gaged in fighting.
DEMAND FOR COAL GREAT,
BUT SHIPS ARE FEW.
John Lochrie, head of the Scalp
Level Coal Mining Company and af-
flliated fuel interests, has returned
from a trip to New York assured of
a greatly increased demand in Eu-
rope for American coal. ‘But,” said
Mr. Lochrie, “the trouble is that we
haven't got enough vessels to take
the stuff across. All of our mines
we could assure European purchasers
of rapid transit across the ocean and
prompt delivery. It seems to be up
and means as to shipping. The sink-
to the government to provide ways
ing of the Lusitania has scared the
owners of many freight steamers,
which makes the situation ‘ worse
Italy, France, Russia, Spain and even
England need coal. Until we tackle
the problem of furnishing American
manufacturers and exporters with
a large mercantile marine, like Eng-
land and Germany have had, we will
not be in a position to enjoy to the
utmost the boom in our trade which
we have a right to expect after the
war ends. More ships is the cry now.
ELECTRIC PLANTS FOR FARMS.
A complete electric light and power
plant, small enough to stand on a
kitchen table and complete enough to
light the surrounding territory, was
one of the exhibits made by the en-
gineering students of Highland Park
College, Des Moines, Ia. recently.
A little steam engine which though
small was run with a pressure of
from 40 to 80 pounds was connected | ing the Commissioners of Somerset
to an electric generator from which [ing the Commissioiners of Somerset |

Mrs. Rebecca Shrock, wife of Elder
Wm. G. Schrock, died at her home
near here, Thursday night, aged 77
years. She had been ill ten weeks
from a complication o diseases. The
funeral took place Sunday at 10 a. m.
at Pike church.
Mrs.. Elizabeth Ann Hirsch who
was a native of Berlin passed away
recently at Medina, Ohio in her 70th
year. She was a sister of the Rev.
Samuel P. Zimmerman of Davidsville,
Peter Zimmerman, of Berlin and of
Charles F. Zimmerman of Stoyestown.
Miss Margaret Eskin, of Berlin in
company with Miss Sarah Catherman
of Lewisburg, have started on a trip
to the Panama exposition, going over
the Southern route via New Orleans.
Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Newman, of
Rockwood were recent visitors here.
Frank Meyers Seibert, son of Mr.
and Mrs. W. A. Seibert of this place
is among those who have won fellow-
ship in chemistry valued at $1,000.
The young man is a graduate of
State College, class of 1910 and for
some time was employed as expert
chemist in the U. S. Bureau of Mines
at Pittsurg. About a year ago he was
appointed demonstrator in ehemistry
at Princeton University.
