LYRIC THEATRE

The Societa Ita1iana ssCfnes, Is the largest Italian motion picture produce ing concern. The Italian nation which has given to the world so much of art in the past has not ceased its arr. tistie mission and among the very best of motion pictures the world over are those produced in that country. Such a one is Between Savage and Tiger. playing Monday, Tuesday and " ednesday at the Lyric treatre, with s+The Lily Of the Valley in three parts, as an afterpiece-
 The players in fBetween Savage and Tiger are not so well known as many of the American motions picture play CTS. but they are nevertheless actors and actresses who stand at the head of their profession
 The production is staged in India much of it in the jungle where man eating tigers abound.
 ..The Lily of the Valley is a pro- ton which portrays some of the rea- sons for the class struggle now going on in this country between the to1lers and the capitalists. No one who tolls for a living but would be intensely 1n- tensely interested in the picture

GERMAN CRUISERS OFF COAST, CABLE
 FIRMS FEAR RAIDS

New York, Aug 1O.-Apprehensio was felt yesterday that the FreEch and English cables from New York via Nova. Scotia, and Newfoundland might be cut by German cruisers now off the American coast
 Persistent rumors from all along the Long Island shore had it that German ships were lowering in the offing ready to pick up the cables if the oc- casion ordered. Some of the beach bathers said that German Warships had been sighted. Fishermen in from the Cholera Banks so reported also.
 At the operating office of the Com mercial Cable company, however, it was said that all messages were being sent as usual The Western Union reported likewise. It added that the office was being run to it's full capaci- ty with messages for abroad.
 That any attempt to cut the French and English cables on the American side would only take place in the North Atlantic, away from New York, was the opinion expressed by an offf-
 Tine cables which leave from Far Rockaway,' he said, ttgo first to Nova Scotia and Newfo undla.nd before start ing over for France and England. To effectdally cut off communication these must be cut between Newfoundland and their destination.''
 The possibility of cable cutting is admitted, but that the scheme can or will be actually carried out was con sidered extremely unlikely.

W0MAN'S BODY MAY GIVE CLUE
 TO A MURDER

Darien. Conn, Aug 10.-Efforts were being made by the authorities today to establish the Identity of the body of a woman found yesterday in an unfreque ented section of woods Dor dering the Norotons road and who, the authorities believe, may have been murdered.
 The body was discovered in a thick ct by a small boy not far from the place where a. man was murdered seY- eraI years ago. So reduced was the corpse by decomposition as to be lIt- tile more than a skeleton, and ident1- ffcation, in the opinion of the author ities, is improbable except possibly through the clothing which was found some 80 feet away
 This consisted of a tailored suit of blue material, tan shoes and stockings, lingerie of very good quality and a black straw hat with three bIue-feat h. CTS Near the garments law a silver mesh abag containing a. purse in which was eight cents.
 Two bottles containing g slowly act ing poison were also found nearby, and a wad of paper, which the author ties believe may have been used as 3 gag The woman was apparently five fleet. nine inches in height. B In the opinion of the medical ex- aIrniner the body had lain in the thick ct for months. The fact that no marks indicating violence were found is not considered an offset to the murder theory as it is pointed out that such marks if any had existed, would have by this time been oblit- erateds by decoInp osition.

At the Aus tro-Hun garian consulate. such a large crowd appeared in the morning that the police were called to keep order. Several hundred put their names in, an equal number singing at the Ger man Consulate.
 The French Consulate was open, but there was little business. It was said that changes would be made in the manner in which reservists are sent consulates will have not even a techni- cal ground on which to complain of breach of neutrality. They will not book passage hereafter as reserves. No fares are being paid for the reserv- ists, it was said. although it was ad- rnitted they would probably be reim- bursed for their passage money after

 The British consulate was open, chiefly for the purpose of catching up with commercial work. Although. bus mess between this country and Europe has been greatly contracted since the war broke out, it was said at<the con sulates that considerable commercial work had piled up on account of the attention devoted to the reservists. !

.UNFORTIFIED CITY
 WAS BOMBARDED BY GUNS OF AUSTRIANS
French Officer Who Saw Fight Tells Graphic Story
 of Defense of Belgium

London, Aug. 10.-An eyewitness who has reached London gives a grapic account of the Austrian attempt to enter Belgrade. He is an officer in the French artillery, and is on his way to join his corps.
 He says the attack began at 1 o'clock ont the morning of July 29, when the city was alarmed by a sud- den fusilade at the Semlin end of the railroad bridge over the River Save. The Servian patrols promptly replied and the flashes of flame were seen in the darkness surrounding the Austrian gnuboats, which slowly approached the Servian bank, resembling yeno- nous crocodiies splitting out fire. Stac- cato sounds of rifle firing continued steadily, until suddenly a terrible re- verberatfon and a blinding glare. pos- told of the blowing up of the Servian end of the bridge
 Nobody in Belgrade slept after that.
 Many were thrown out of bed by the qua.king of the earth. Immediately af- ter Austrian shells began bursting ov- CT the town. but doing little damage, owing to the poor narkmanship.
 The railroad bridge was destroyed by the Servians because they had dis cerned a train loaded with Austrian soldiers starting to cross 1t stealthily. The Austrians were also prevented l from getting rafts loaded with sol diers across the Save by Servian sharp shooters who picked off the enemy s men by dozens.
 The French artillery officer, who saw the whole affray.. says he never dreamed that modern warfare would behold the bonbardnent by civilized troops of an open, unfortified town like Belgrade.
 Teh day after the dynanniting of the bridge one of the Austrian shells ex- ploded on the British Legation, near ly killing the British Consul The Servian commander communicated the consuls protest to the Austrian com
 nander in Sernlin over the telephone. The reply was that every repetition of firing on Austrian monitors by SerV- tans would mean a repetition of the bombardment of Belgrade Official statements received here in dicate that the dread disease of cho1- era will have to be contended with by Austria
 1t has already claimed many vic- tin1s, and every effort is being made to curtail it's spread by the medical corps of both armies.

To the Editor of The Bridgeport Even ing Farmer:
 liam a born German, but an Auneri- can citizen for over 30 years and wish to protest against the way some of the press of this city is insulting the Ger man nation As it looks to me, these editors must have grudge against the Germans, and think more of the Rus sians That nation never did anything but kill thousands of Jews
 If those papers don't stop printing about all the German Man Of War be- ing sunk. by the English. in a. few days Germany won't have a ship left. Let the other nations lose some2 That would not be fair. My advice to all good thinking, right minded citizens would be get a paper where you can depend on getting news and not fal5es

GREATEST CROPS
 IN MODERN TIMES
 PROMISE WEALTH

yvashIn gton. August 1e-The calaIn- ity crowd have been subHnersed pv Hcrnns. ms new GeyernzneHt crop re- port is sinprecedented in the history of the nation. The story it tells is one of abundance and plenty without-par- aIlel in our great country.
 It Is all a story of extraordinary plenty. and with short wheat crops abroad it becomes a promise of inn mense traffic within the country and exports of great volume.
 Hearst,s New York American, speak ing of the crop report. said:
 ssApp1ying the increases indicated in the important grains as basis to all crops enumerated the gain over last ye ear would be 9o.o0o, 900 bushels.
 Exports of new wheat to date are already double last year movement.
 .eThe earryover from last years crop. 100000 bushels less than on July 1, 1913. Tn Europe grain stocks are light, and war and political disturbances in Eur ope vii mean smaller crops. There is no promise of excess of yields for any foreign importing country
 The New York Sun said editoria1ly:s
 sfThe July crop report is altogether one of the most satisfactory exhibits that has ever been made at this sea son,
 g
 ..There is yet time for the Wall Street farmers to find bugs and rust and other killjoy inventions, but only a calamity can prevent the success of the farmers conspiracy to put more. bushels into our rnidsts' than was ever dreamed Of before.
 ..It seems cruelty to the, calamity criers to add anything to this giIded tale. but there is worse to come. The prices are not as low as they ought to be because of exhaustion of home crops and Something like scarcity abroad, due to the exhaustion Of the foreign labor supply by feeding it to cannon
 Liberty enlightening the world is nothing in comparison with America feeding the world. .
