ALI marine men who in
vestigate the Hyde Ship
Brake are enthusiastic in
its praises-Why? Be-
cause THEY KNOW
And many persons who
have seen it argue that it
has even a greater future
than the Westinghouse
Air Brake. We are not
making this claim, but we
do claim that the Hyde
Ship Brake and the West
inghouse Air Brake are
THE TWO GREATEST
LIFE AND PROPERTY
SAVING INVENTIONS
OF THE AGE.
Investments of 500 in
the Westinghouse Air
Brake have earned for
tunes in dividends. There
is good reason to believe
that the Ship Brake pre-
sents the same opportun-
ity.
But we want you to in
vestigate fully and Judge
for yourself.
The low price at which
Hyde Ship Brake Com
pany stock is now selling
| 1857 per share, applies
only to a limited number
Of shares.
The price will then be
advanced to not less than
$3.50 per share-the par
value is $40.
You cannot afford to
fail to investigate RIGHT
NOW. Purchases can be
for cash, or upon install
ments to suit, not less
than 1919 per month.

humphrey Explains How Government Came Be Swndd On Site

Frank W. Baker, also political erony of Con-
gresham Humphrey. owned some of the land
sold to the government. Baker represented some
of the other owners.
The site is to be abandoned as unsuited for
postoffce purposes 1t will have to be sold for
whatever price it will now bring.
This will be about one-half what Congressman
Humphrey said it was worth and what the gov
eminent paid
100000 TO $4,000.

ALLIES BALKAN REAR
MENACED BY FOES
Route Open to Bulgar-German
Army Also Leads to OPP
ponents' Flank

PARIS, Dec 9O-Eduardo Kelsey, the
correspondent of the Journal, at Salonica.
telegraphs TO his paper as follows:
There are two routes possible for n
Bulgarian-German advance against the
Allies at Salonica. The most probable
development is that they will come by
the way of Dolral and Nverokop Hill,
but there is another way, which would
lead them to the Allies flank and possi-
bly, to the Allies rear. Even 1900 or
90 900 men. sweeping rapidly from Stodena
into the Nardar plain would endanger our
position, which is not too strong.
"Vardar plain stretches direct from
Strodena to Salonlca and is traversed by
excellent roads. along which there is
nothing to arrest the progress of the in
vaders except artillery and the bayonets
OF the Anglo-French soldiers. There are
no natural barriers.
III the Germans and Bulgarians use
this route they would be able to reach
Stodena from Monastir within week in
spite of the mountains. They would then
be within less than three days march
of the main lines of the Allied forces.
Fortunately for US the enemy forces at
Monastir now number only 10000"

TRENTON TO GIVE GREAT
RECEPTION TO SUNDAY
Continued from Page One

Continued from Page One
of which President woodrow Wilson was
an occupant during his Inauguration as
the Governor of New Jersey. This car
will be at the disposal of the evangelist
during his stay in this city.
Mrs. Rose May Foutts, official house,
keeper of the Sundays, who arrived here
on Monday night, has been busy ever
since arranging the house for the coming
residents Mr.. Sunday and his family
will partake Of dinner at o'clock, and
the meal will be on regular time, so Mrs.
Foutts said today.
The temporary home OF the Sundays
was two years ago the property OF George
w. Barlow. the proprietor OF Barlow's
Hotel, located two blocks south of the
evangellst's residence and opposite the
station where Mr.. Sunday will alight on
Saturday. While the dealer in intox-
icants cannot see anything wrong about
the evangelist occupying the building,
there are many smiles to be noted when
the matter is broached among groups OF
persons discussing the Sunday campaign.
The house is known as the "Dolton
Mansion" due to the fact that for many
years 1t was the property of William
Dolton, now deceased, and who for half
a century was the promoter of one of the
largest grocery jobbng houses in this
section of the country. The structure
recently was occupied by the Model
Cleaning and Dyeing Company, while adj
joining buildings on the grounds were de-
voted to the storing of automobiles.
Sundays tabernacle is now almost com
plete. 1t is located on an extensive plot
of ground known as the Whitaker F;s-
tate, and extends from Chambers street
along Greenwood avenue to the home of
o. o. Bowen, head of the John l.. Mott
Iron Company, which is known through
out the world by reason of the Pujo Con-
gressional Investigation, in Washington
about four years ago, of the "bathtub
trust" The buildings will have a seating
capacity of about 1900 persons.
1t will be heated by is mammoth stoves,
while the seats will be of the bench va
riety. with fairly high backs. The speak-
ers platform Is high and strong. Back
Of it will be seats for the three cholrs of
1900 voices each.
The sawdust trails" already laid. add
a picturesque tlnge to the roomy build
ing. They are made of shavings The
tabernacle is located in what is known
as the Wilbur section of Trenton, not far
from the great wire plants of the John
A. Roebling Company.
A fund of $4,000 has been subscribed IA
n guarantee of tho expenses. Sunday has
always obtained the expense fund through
early collections. Therefore ne expect
TO pay the guarantees.
Some alarm Is being felt on the part of
proprietors of cafes where girls mingle
with men, as well as theatre owners,
owing to the near arrival of the evan
gelist. 1t Is known that investigators for
the Campaign Committee have been
scouting throughout the city in quest of
information, and that hotel in which
a cabaret show Is conducted nightly was
visited by these agents.
