"Nut" Comedians Father
Is a Prisoner of War

The fact that comedians are said to
go before the footlights and meander
through their routine of foolisbness
with tears in their eyes while the
audience is convulsed with their an
tics and really believes he actually
feels so hilarious is familiar to read
ers. But it applies with special force
to one Johnny Dooley, a comedian at
the Orpheum this week, who is one
of those nut" comedians. to use the
vaudeville vernacular, one of those
absurdly funny fellows, who, way
down in his heart, is a troubled boy.
Johnny's troubles are seated in the
capture by England of the United
States oil ship called John d. Rookie
feller on which Johnnys father is a
steward, and so at the present time is
a prisoner of war. Dooley said this
morning that Secretary of State Bryan
had ordered the American consul at
London to order his immediate release.
The suspense is inevitable in Dooley's
manners and looks off stage, over the
anxiety of his devoted father but au-
diences are laughing at his forced fool
ishness much as If they were real.

Scotch Force Germans
to Give Up Position
By ASSociated PrcSs

The Battle Front, Wit Paris, Oct. 90
l11.51 P. M.-The obstinacy of both
armies in the fighting apparently is
growing daily. The battle in the
north has become more violent than
ever.
The Germans were fiercer than
usual in to-day's attacks on the Bel
gians, whose extreme wing stretches
from the coast along a front of over
twenty miles on which they are fight
ing heroically for the restoration OF
the independence of their stricken
country.
Further on to La Bassee and Lille
the combat to-day also was of most
vigorous character.
The allied cavalry distinguished it.
self in magnificent charges quite like
those in the old style of battle. A light
brigade composed of French and Brit
ish Hussars and mounted rifles, led
the way and were followed by heavy
dragons, lancers and cuirrassiers
The Scotch infantry also took a
prominent part in the work "Kil-
ties" charged battery of heavy Ger
man artillery and machine guns which
made the passage of the allied artil-
lery difficult. The Scotch made their
way through the barbed wire entan-
clements, reached the German guns
and disposed of other artillerYmen and
made the deployment OF the allied
guns possible. Despite the frequent
fire of the German machine guns,
which were brought into play too late
the allies gained the position.
The scene on the battlefield is a
striking one with the lowing fright
ened cattle and the bleating of sheer

cannon, the rattle of the machine guns

Germans Continue
Violent Onslaught
Along the Seacoast
Bp Associnted Prets

Paris, Oct. %, 2.55 p. m. The
official announcement given out at the
War Office this afternoon says:
"On our left wing the very consid-
cradle German forces whose presence
was reported yesterday, have contin-
ued very violent attacks in the entire
region between the sea and the canal
of La Bassee.
Generally speaking the situation
of the allied forces has been main
tanned. If the allies had to yield at
certain points they have advanced at
others. The enemy also has evidenced
very great activity in the region of
Arras and on the river Somme. To
the north and to the south of this
stream we have progressed, particu-
larly in the region of Rosieres.
I'm Santerre, in the region of Ver-
dun, and in the region of Pont-a-
Mousson, we have had some partial
successes. On the rest of the front
there is nothing to report
ITO sum up: The enemy appears
to be undertaking along the major
part of the front, and particularly be-
tween the North Sea and the Disc, a
new effort, making use of corps made
up of new organizations. These are
composed of men recently drilled,
some OF them very young and others
of middle age, and have staffs drawn
from various parts of the army.
Russia: To the south of the Pi-
lica the Germans still hold the Wis
tula river, with the exception Of the
line from Ivangorod to Kozielide. But
this they abandoned, pursued by the
Russians.
'All the efforts made by the Aus
trians to cross the river San to the
north of Jaroslau have been repulsed,
and the Russians are undertaking the
offensive in this region

Wilson May Use Power
to Adjourn Congress

Washington, D. c.. Oct. 2S.-Proba-
bilities that President Wilson would
exercise his constitutional power and
adjourn Congress, inasmuch as Con-
gress itself is unable to agree on end
ing the session. were considered strong
to-day by administration leaders after
the President had conferred with
Speaker Clark and Senators Kern and
Overman.
Speaker Clark said he was sure both
houses, now sitting without a quorum,
would be unable to agree on adjourn
ment and he believed .the country
would endorse such action ny the
President.
The Presidents power for such a
precedent breaking action is found in
Section III of Article II of the Con-
stitution which provides that "in case
of disagreement between them (both
houses of Congress) with respect to
the time of adjournment he (the
President) may adjourn them to such
time as he shall think proper"

Horse on Wall Job, Falling
Into Water, Nearly Frozen
But After Tuggng and Rolling at Big Animal He Was Fl
nally Brou ght Ashore

Dan, one of the big gray dump
wagon horses at work on the river
wall job near Walnut street, got an
unexpected half-holiday to-day-with
the help of Father Susquehanna.
The incident was especially note
worthy except for Dan. That it might
have developed into a possible little
tragedy in the shallow water is neither
here nor there, now; it netted Dan a
promise of a brisk rundown. a warm
blanket and possibly an extra nice
bran mash in his stall. Incidentally,
1t provided a rift in the monotony of
an all-morning loaf in the park for a
score or more of spectators. So per-
haps Dan ought to be grateful At any
rate, here's the story:
Dan and his working chum, George
were struggling to pull a big dump
wagon down along the shore to collect
a load of silt and other "fill'' material
when the former unluckily stepped
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1914-10-23

into a hole in the river bed. Before
the anxious driver could extricate him
Dan was down in two feet of water.
The water is not of the swimming tenn
perature just now and before the
hours strenuous struggle on the part
of the driver and dozen workmen
got results Dams muscles were so stiff
from cold that he just couldn't help
himself bit. Ex-Police Sergeant
O'Donnell, S. p. c. A. officer, was right
on the job to see that every possible
effort was made to get Dan out with
out harm. too.
After some tugging and rolling they
finally got Dan to his weary. lottery
feet and his owner started stable-ward
with him. Then someone brilliantly
bethought himself of George, standing
motionless all the while knee deep in
the still cold water and brought him
in to land, too.
However, with George, as with Dan,
it's all in the days work.

For the first time since the war
began aircraft and warships are aid
