Russian assertions that all inlportant
victory has been won over the Austrian
forces in Galicia were confirmed to-day
in an official statement from Vienna, in
which the admission is made that the
Austrians were compelled to retreat
along the entire eastern front. 1t is
said that the situation to the north, in
Poland, is not affected by this reversal
although Petrograd asserts the move
ment of the main German army has
been checked with losses described as
enormous.
Austria g defeat at the hands of Ser
via apparently has been followed by re-
newed activity on the part of Monte

fighting to Austrian soil, in Herzegovina
and are now undertaking a vigorous
offensive movement. The Vienna War
Office states that the Montenegrin at
tacks thus far have been repulsed
easily.
Russia claim to victory over Tur-
key in the Caucasus is disputed by re-
ports which reached Berlin from Con-

won ''another success, and are pur-
suing the retreating Russians. It Is
also said at Constantinople that another

H.A. WEAVER GRANTED PATENT
New Device Prevents Water Corrosion
of Metals

Harry \. Weaver, former resident
Of the borough and an eX-star on the
famous old Y NJ. c. A. football team,
has been granted a patent on a device
which is said to counteract the results
of incrustatiOn and corrosion of metals
from water in steam pipes, boilers and
tine like, and the total removal from
the water of the elements that cause
the injury, also to remove the corrosive
deposits in boilers. Extensive tests are
alleged to have been made of the device,
all of which have established its effici-
eney.
1t was asserted that where the ap-
paratus had been tried about 20 per
cent. Of the coal formerly used had
been saved. The scale which collects
on the bottom of boilers takes up an
immense amount of heat, it was said,
The vention, if put into use, will save
firemen and stationary engineers their
customary Sunday labor of cleaning
boilers.
Most apparatus on the market now
is too large and require too mu,h space
in the installation. The new one will
be on the market during the early part
of the coming year, it was said.

Gettysburg, Dec. 0.-Successfully
deceiving his fellow students, Elmer
iBookholtz, sophomore at Gettysburg
College, kept secret until yesterday his
marriage to Miss Sarah Verdier, of
Waynesboro, which took place in Ha-
gerstown, Md, on December Z. Rumors
were rife about the local institution at
the time but no one could get any
authentic information.
On the morning of December 7, Miss
Verdier, who had been visiting Miss
Mary Rummel and Miss Nellie Rum
mel at their home on Water street, left
on the morning train over the West
ern Maryland. Mr.. Bookhohz boarded
the same train and from this there
started rumor that wedding was to
take place. A day or two later the
student returned, announced that he had
simply been visiting friends, and those
who gathered to congratulate him be-
lieved his story.
