Pagel's Force Routs English
Army in Three Days y
g.. Mimic War. ..
New York Herald Special Gable Service. Copy.
right, 1906, by the New York Herald.


London, Sept. %, 1906.-Britain s
forces have been annihilated and Eng
land is, in the hands of the enemy.
Ireland, after her long struggle for
home rule. has obtained justice at last.
She has got more than she wanted. She
has not only got home rule, she has
gained sovereignty over her greater sis
ter isle, Great Britain.
All this is merely on paper, of course.
1t is simply the result of the army
maneuvers, but it shows what a weak
defense England would put up if the
country were invaded. Of course, the
British navy would have to be swept
off all the seas first, and that is what
was supposed to have taken place be-
fore the invasion was effected.
= The war which was brief, lasting lit
tie more than two days, was watched
eign attaches, who accompanied General
Sir John French, the one general who
never sustained a reverse at the hands
of the Beers and who looked on to see
fair. play between the contending
armies.
:. General Arthur Pagel, husband of a
beautiful woman who has proved her
self such a. worthy wife of a good sol
der by the bravery she has displayed
in her prolonged suffering, was. the vic
torious commander Of the invading
forces. He was supposed to have come
from Ireland. Colonel Scott-Ker COM
manded the. defeated British force.
From the very moment that General
Pagel was supposed to have effected a
landing at Little. Hampton, on the west
coast of England, until the capture of
Portsmouth. his army kept sweeping
the British in front of them by what
General Franch 6ecrriha6 and what
foreign military attaches admitted were
admirable tactics. The war was hardly
begun before the Irish army forced the
British commander to evacuate his posi-
tion on South Downs and fall back on
the hills behind him.

Chicago, Sept. 22.-Ineendiary fires
in, Wabash avenue today endangered
the lives Of a score of occupants Of two
buildings, one Of them occupied as q
hotel, the other a four story apartment
building. The incendiaries passed thru
Railways pouring kerosene on door pam.
els and door mats and then applying
matches. These fires were set in the
Curry hotel, housing a half hundred
persons, and in a four-story apartment
building, containing six fats, all of
which are occupied. !. S.
Miss Grace Curry, proprietor Of the
Curry hotel, was severely burned about
the hands and face. She saw two men
escaping from the building and told the
police she could identify at least one
of them. e. ~
At 1718 Wabash avenue, three fires
were set almost simultaneously on diff
ferent floors of the structure, oil being
poured along the Railways. The prompt
arrival Of the fire department is all
that saved the structure and probably
the lives of several Of the occupants.
This is the fifth mysterious fie in that
building within the. past month.
The incendiaries :,before departing
| locked the doors behind them, plugging
the locks in some manner SO that the
occupants had difficulty in escaping
! to the street. e.

SNUB FOR THESKAIsER,
FETE FOR FREDERICK
Emperor's Silver wedding Day Caused

Berlin, Sept. 22.-The golden mar
riage and government jubilee Of Grand
Duke Frederick L., Of Baden, has as
sumed the proportions Of. a national
popular fete, which is all the more re-
markable IN view Of the fact that the
kaiser s silver wedding caused little in
terest and many expressions of dissat-
isfaction. The large amnesty granted
in Baden is contrasted with the scanty
pardon given in harshly ruled Prussia,
the land Of 81 ese majestic. - r .
It is remembered that Frederick was
the first among the German princes who
worked for the fatherland's unity
against Prussia g will. Besides, it was
he who first grasped the necessity of
stamping out class rule in his country,
which IS now styled 'tGermany,s
model land'' The Berlin Press also
gratefully records the aged prince 8
oft-expressed conviction that "a con-
stitutional ruler is not justified in try
ing to impose his own tastes and opin-
ions on his people. ,,
Thus the praise bestowed upon the
venerable prince possesses numerous
points that are directed toward high

Chicago, Sept. Ex-senator Albert J.
Beveridge of Indiana, who opened the
republican congressional campaign in

Senator Beveridge. '.<There are no
united on all the great legislation Of
the last five years. These laws, which
were. insisted upon and fought for by
President Roosevelt, when finally they
were passed had practically unanimous
support. So the question is whether or
not the country is going to indorse
the president, who deserves the credit
for these laws with which the country
is so well satisfed.''~ -r> -. ::
Government Ownership.
elf there are no issues what, then,
is the contention? - the senator was
asked. ,, . -y :. Z. ~. +.
'The contention merely is that
whether the party in charge Of the
government, or the party in opposition,
can run the government best; but there
are future issues and issues that are
rapidly approaching. One of these is
the question of government supervision
versus government ownership, and the
other is the question Of Cuban inter
course, Cuban annexation. This ques-
ton is almost here-indeed, it may ar
rive next week. But whether it ar
rives next week, or next month, or next
year, or the next decade, it is newt
able.
1.-THE other question is emphatically
in the nature of an issue, because
there will be sharp division over it.
Question Worth While.
"That is the question of government
corporations, or government ownership
Of these properties. Here is question
worth while. It involves two distinct
and emphatic theories Of industry. It
is refreshing to have great question
like this before the people for settle
ment It is good to have campaign
where there is really something to
argue about.
TThat was the case with the money
campaign Of 1896. It was also the
case on the question of imperialism in
1900 Since then the administration
of Theodore Roosevelt has>b been so wise
that the people are practically unani-
nous in it's support, and there is
nothing, therefore, to reason about,
and only things to praise. )" + 7

" But the garment that has been shaped
by the hot Flat-iron will need constant

1t is safe to say that about 80 per
cent of all Coats and Overcoats are
mere y juggled into shape by the hot
Flat-iron.
- And these look as well the first day
you wear them as the most painstaking
and skillful 1eedlework could make

But there 8 a tremendous difference
in the permanence of shape produced by
the two different processes.
Moreover, the Garment that is fully
shaped by clever and careful hand
needlework will wear much longer than
if shaped by the usual quick and easy
Flat-iron Taking.
- Because, the hand-needlework adds
strength to the cloth, at the critical
places where most strain comes, what
the points where the cloth must be
stretched, or shrunken in order to give
it the proper curving lines to fit the

London, Sept. 22.--Father Vaughan
''The Sins of the Smart Set" by a
well-known non-conformist minister,
the Rev. DR.. Townsend, who, address
ing a meeting Of the federation Of free
churches, alluded to the gambling
curse, which he said was eating its
way, like cancer, thru the country.
If they went up the Thames any
Sunday, he said, and investigated what
was going on in: the mansions of the
nobility, which lined it's banks, they
gambling parties, at which young girls
were utterly ruined by the curse: These
parties he said were held chiefly by
hungry ladies seeking at bridge and
whist parties to draw in these poor
pigeons for the purpose Of pluclking
them. : It was a scandal to civilization,
and he was glad that the king had set
his face against this Sabbath desecra-
ton. v..., ,~,..

bore a great name, and many Of her
guests were well known men and wo-
men in society. I have heard and seen
so-called amusements in country
houses, beside which leapfrog would be
considered game of great refinement
and eminent good taste, and I will give
two instances that came under my own

any high place among the great men

his constituents will show. 1t re-

New York that is supporting his

that it has said worse things about
Hearst than Hearst ever said about
Tammany's chief.
The law of New York requires that
advertisements announcing general
elections shall be published in eight
newspapers, four of them republican
and four democratic. Acting under
the law, the commissioners of cleo

the democratic papers. ~Thereupon,

Perth Amboy evening news., 1906-10-11

One of the smallest appropria-
lions which the city made last year,
but one of it's most productive, was
that of $500 for an Industrial solicit
or. Mr.. Lyons has succeeded, even
with this small amount at his dispo-
sal, in bringing several industries
here, and his promise to quicken the
industrial activities of the town is be-
ing made good by almost weekly an
nouncements of new factories for the
town. Mr.. Lyons yields to no man
in his enthusiasm and pride over
making New Brunswick greater and
o prosperous. We wish we had
more men like him."
This is a capital idea. An industri-
al solicitor is something new in mu-
nicipal Offices, but every live city
should have one. Perth Amboy needs
one now.
The city appropriated $500 for this
Mr.. Lyons to spend in his capacity as
industrial solicitor and he has
brought several good-sized industries
into the city which are valuable as
sets. The $500 appropriated has
been multiplied to the city's benefit a
thousand times. Without a doubt
that $500 appropriated was one of
the best investments New Brunswick
has ever made. Perth Amboy is not
too proud to copy the good points of
her neighbors. Let the Board of AL
dermen see to it that an industrial
solicitor is provided for in the next
city budget.
