CENSORSHIP IS HIGHLY IRRITAT-
 ING.

Suppression of news is one of the things that are tolerated by free, civ ilized peoples only In time of war. Even then they recognize its neces- sity with unwillingness and doubt, merely as part of the general ab- normally of conditions which war creates, feeling all the while that they have right to know promptly, fully and accurately, what is going on, since their own vital interests are concerned, and suspecting all the while that the censorship is used about as often to withhold informa- tion from themselves as from the enemy.
 These emotions are particularly strong, of course. in journalistic cir cles, and there they most often rise to resentment, for newspapers value enormously the hard-won privilege of printing what they please-with full responsibility for the consequences They would be less restive under re straint if they could see in the work of military censors more evidence o1 wisdom, more enlightened discre tion-a sounder discrimination be tween publicity safe and dangerous harmful and harmless. What they do see is a capricious and inexplic able vacillation, one censor passing what another stops, and all appar ently as ready to let sensational i'm

aginings go through as they are all eager to stop correct information. The hostile army cannot thus be mis- led, but international animosities are needlessly embittered.
 One is tempted at times to believe that the chief use of censorship is to exaggerate, or allow to be exag- gerated, the importance of successes achieved and to conceal defeats or reverses as long as possible. As an illustration of the censor's work we printed yesterday the worthless rem nant he had left of dispatch about the sinking of the Amphion. Why he made us pay toll on that rem nant is as hard to understand as why he should have suppressed the de tails of an event the main features of which were known days ago. New York Times.

MIDAS CREWS
 ARE LAID 0FF

The work at the Midas mine, own ed by the Granby Consolidated Min ing Company, has been stopped for the present because of the war in Europe, which has stopped the ex- portation of copper. The property was being opened and prepared for shipping and the necessary prelimi- nary work has almost been completed and mining operations were about to be carried forward on a large scale when the war broke out. Many of the men came across the bay today and were paid off.

Rio Battle In Austria.

VIENNA, Aug. 31.-From the Wis tula river, near the border line or Russia, Austria and Germany, eX- tending the entire distance across Ga licia to the border of Roumania, the Russian and Austrian armies are fighting today. The battle started Saturday and has continued ever since. The Austrians have 1,0O0,0 men on the battle line and are trying to hold the Russians from crossing the River Dniester.
 Russians Have Secured Much Austri-
 an Territory.
 The Russians have taken Lembers, the capital of the province of Galicla, and have fully half of the province, according to advices received here from the front, but the Austrian army, while falling back, is reported to have been inflicting heavy loss- es upon the Russians but are being beaten down by superior numbers.
 Russian Fighting a Surprise.
 The method of fighting followed by the Russians has been surprise to the Austrian and German armies, who expected to meet the remnants of a whipped and disorganized mob fol- lowing the unsuccessful war with Ja- pan, but the Slavs seem filled with a determination to win and are fight ing at close quarters, charging into the Notifications, and while paying heavy price in lives have by the very weight of numbers taken all the forts in their path. They also show splendid organization and are well equipped.

Few British Lost In North Sea.
 LONDON, Aug. 31.-The report is sued by the admiralty today regard ing the sea battle in the North Sea in which the Germans lost eleven warships, while the British loss was two ships damaged, shows that twen- ty-nine members of the crews of the British ships were killed and fifty in jured. The loss to the Germans is estimated at fully 5000 men, as sev- eral of the ships were of the first line of the Kaisers battlefleet.
 Germans Avoid Sea Battle.
 The German ships are avoiding the English fleet, which has been striv- ing in every way to bring on gen. eral engagement with the Germans so that the North Sea may be freed of the kaiser's ships and shipping re- stunned.
 May Force Holland Into War.
 Because of the general sympathy of the Holland government with the German government and the aid that Holland is giving the Germans by al lowing importation of food supplies through Holland to Germany, the al lied governments are preparing to blockade the coast of Holland and prevent supplies being taken into Holland. If the threat is carried out it is expected that Holland will throw in with Germany, but the allies be- lieve that the blockading of the coast is worth more to them than the Dutch army is to Germany.

tonight, will be champions of Har-

The game at the Armory tomorrow
night may also decide the independent
championship, as the railroaders have
won two games from Harrisburg by
decisive scores. The series was to
have included five games, but one more

Locust Gap Five
Played Best Game

Lacking only in goal shooting, the
Locust Gap tossers last night defeated
the Hassett five, score 26 to 2. Consid-
ering that Locust Gap players came to
Harrisburg after putting in twelve
hours in the mines, adds to their
credit
Hassetts work was of the best but
they were up against a fast team.
Every man on the local five figured in
good spurts, but they were outplayed
at intervals when defensive work would
have counted. Had the Locust Gap
been in their usual good form in shoot
ing the score would have been more
decisive. For Locust Gap, Whalen
and BetZ were stars.
The Central High girls scrub team
defeated the st. Cecilia girls, score
IL to 8. This game was also of great
interest. Miss Kleckner and Miss
Starry put up a great game for Cen
trail and Miss keenan, and Miss Coon

TO PLAY IN EUROPE

the baseball players who accom- panied

White Sox on their tour of the world
probably will make another foreign

ing baseball season, according to an

who managed the world tour Just
ended Plans under consideration pro-
vide for short trip to Europe to give
baseball exhibitions in cities where
rain prevented games during the re-
cent tour. The cities where games may
be played are Paris, Berlin, Dublin
and Glasgow. Under present plans

extended to five places. Instead, how
ever. of giving the victor five points,
will suggest that it be raised an ace
higher. A winner should receive two
points more than the runner-up.'
In the future at all college games,
points will be distributed to the first
five, as follows: Five for first, four for
second, three for third, two for fourth
and one for fifth.
The reason for the liberal award of
points, according to a college official,
Is to have more colleges figure in the
score, If possible. On the other hand,
some of the experts fail to see that the
system will make competition any
keener.
In most sports, when an athlete,
horse, boat or machine fails to finish
one, two or three, the effort is not
considered of much account. Such has
been the opinion for many years.
When prizes are given at athletic
games they are distributed only to the
first three, save in special events or
distance runs.
At the present time, at all cham
pionship games of the A. A. U. and
Public School Athletic League, the
point score system is five for first,
three for second. two for third and
one for fourth. If the A. A. U. changes
its scoring the P. S. A. l.. and allied
bodies will probably follow suit.

]. E. Sullivan

New York, March Recommending
in the new system of pointing of track
and field sports which was recently
adopted by the intercollegiate Asso-
citation of Amateur Athletes of Amer
tca, James e. Sullivan, secretary of
the Amateur Athletic Union, expresses
the opinion that the winner should
receive six points instead of five He
believes that victory is worth two
points more than being the runner
up.
When asked if he did not think that
the new method takes in too many
men, Mr.. Sullivan said:
Il don't think so. 1t is a very good
idea. The athletes will be able to score
more points, and so will the schools.
1t will make competition better, as the
athletes will have more chances to get
places. If man fails to get a prize
he gets an opportunity at least TO do
something for his school.
