BERLIN. Dec. 24-(By Wireless)
The capture of more than 1880
prisoners is reported in an official
statement issued at o'clock this af-
ternoon 10y the chief of administra-
tiOn of the German armies. 1t follows:
"In the western theater of war
the enemy did not renew his attacks
in the neighborhoOd of Nie1port yes
terday. At BiXsChoOte Tuesday we
took $50 prisoners. The enemy is
again in the neighbOrhoOd OF camp
Chalons. In the region of Parthes in
fantry attacks by the enemy followed
by artillery attacks yesterday were
repulsed
Parts of the trenches had been lev
elled until they afforded no shelter.
We took more than 100 prisoners in
fighting in this district
In the eastern theater OF war VIC
have resumed the offensive. advancing
from the Neidenburg- -SOldau line.
After several days OF lighting we
have rephSed the enemy near Mlawa
and the Russian positions there have
been taken by us. More than 1000
prisoners have been taken in these
battles. At the confluence of the
Bzurka and Rawka rivers there is
fierce bayonet fighting. as a result of
misty weather which has caused a
cessation of artillery fire The Rus
slams have suffered great losses. ON
the right bank Of the Pilica and south
east of Tomazzow the Russians have
delivered number OF violent attacks
but the Teutonic allies repulsed all
NTH heavy losses to the enemies.
Further south the situation is gener-
ally unchanged"
VIENNA. Dec. 24-(Nia Berlin -
we have repulsed numerous Russian
night attacks on the lower Dunajec
river" says an official report issued
today. A new battle Is developing in
the district of the Bzura and Rawka
rivers. In the Carpathians we have
made a number of prisoners but the
lighting there is still without a decisive
result. The same can he said OF the
lighting in the Nida valley The Rus

DR.. WADMAN in
TEMPERANCE
At HIGH SCHOOL

At the suggestion Of Principal Scott
DR. j. w Wadman Of the Ani-SaloOn
league addressed the $50 students Of
Mckinley high school this morning
on Tendencies in Temperance" and
in part said:
1t would be interesting if we could

then and now OF tendencies in tenn
peranCe. Then so or p years ago.

measure at least, had food, value.
New alcohol is, poison according to
the latest and best scientific investE
cations Then people, imbibed. be-
lieving that alcohol was, wholesome
stimulant. but the leading physiolC-
gists and neurologists of the day have
ruled alcohol out of the classification
Of desirable and healthy stimulants.
finding better substitutes elsewhern.
Then alcohol was prescribed as med
icine in smaller and larger doses by
the family physicians, but now the
modern, up-to-date doctors do not use
it as a drug, and have officially pro-
nOunced against 1t.
The modern tendencies in tenn
perance,' for the sake of economy in
government control and efficiency in
public services are all in the dlrec-
ton Of prohibition. The most strlk-
ing example of this new and splendid
attitude is that of the way in which
the Russian government has banished
the vodka forever. Germany, too, and
England and France as we'll, for the
sake Of economy and efficiency, have
enacted special laws and issued strong
appeals in favor of total abstinence.
AT the coming session of the New
York legislature a bill will be pro-
posed whereby no saloon will be al
lowed by law to do business within
5000 feet CT machine shop or fac
tory. Why? For the sake OF the
highest efficiency on the part OF the
skilled workman as we'll as to protect
him against accidents which are large
ly owing to the early morning drink
or the neon cocktail. 49,
Then there are psychological ten
denotes in temperance sane and
young men of the day on this same
ground of the highest efficiency in
human life. The whole of ones life
should be we'll centered. we'll bal
anced, in full control. All minor hab-
its in eating, drinking, sleeping, etc,
should be so fixed and regular as to-
require the least expenditure Of time
and energy You see it is question
Of the conservation of energy Smok-
ing and drinking habits dissipate and
therefore are psychologically an in
reference with growth towards eff
cheney. Not only is it a question OF
the conservation of energy, but also
the conservation of boyhood' which is
a new ground of appeal used by
graduate of this high school and now
a senior in Cornell, whose name. IL
should mention it, would be quickly
recognizable"

An Insurance Agent Who Turned Ne
eessity into a Lucrative
Income.
Fountain Pen Inventor.
l. Z. WATERMAN

While employed as an insurance
agent, the, necessity of the fountain
pen presented itself to Waterman. It
was difficult to secure insurance in.
those days, and any such stumbling
block as not having the means to sign
contract "on the spot" was an addi-
tional handicap. Waterman saw this
world need and used his meager saw
ings to develop his fountain pen ideas,
which he soon patented. He made
pens, dozen at a time, and sold them
to bis friends, always with the under
standing that if they were not salts
factory their money would be return
ed. The first year of the history of
Waterman's Ideals, he spent $3.50
to advertise them to the public. Now
these famous pens are advertised in
every country and city of any impor-
lance throughout the universe, and
there are we'll over a million sold each
year.
Start saving, no matter how small
the amount, If only to develop the
trait. Some day you may get an idea,
or good chance, and you will have
your own finances to back You.

WOMAN OF MYSTERY
FOUND DEAD In MAIDS ROOM IN
CHICAGO FURNISHED
APARTMENT.

Chicago, Sept. 5.-A richly fur
nished apartment at 1891 Indiana
avenue has held a mystery for nearly
a year.
So closely was the secret of the fiat
guarded that even death failed to
throw any light on the real identity
of the young woman who has occu-
pied the apartment.
The body of a woman known as
Dorothy Parker was found in the
room of her negro maid, an open gas
jet in the chandelier furnishing evil
dence that the woman had taken her
own life.
On the police records of the STAN
ton avenue police station appears an
entry which tells that Miss Dorothy
Parker committed suicide in her
home by inhaling gas. On the mail
box in the entrance TO the building
is the name of George Parker.
George Parker was never seen by
neighbors. In a little room off the
parlor of the fiat is a den fitted up to
the taste of a a who enjoys home
life. There are thick carpets on the
floor, pictures on the wall and a
smoking stand with two pipes in one
corner. But no man has ever been
seen to enter the place, and the wom-
an never spoke 20 any of her neigh
bors.
To them she was 1.-The beauty" and
the queen of mystery" The woman
