DUCK! BAND Of BOLD,
BAD BOYS IS COMING
Fred Cartwright Says Altoona
Near-cOnverts Are Tuned Up
For Rip Snortin' Time

DR.. Henry w Slough and his evan
gelistic party have a long arm that
knows no limits and stop at nothing
in the fight against the evil ways of
the world.
The latest move of the evangelists
concerns the basketball team of the
Altoona high school, members of
which refused to hit the trail in the
recent Slough campaign because they
wanted to hold off for a good time in
Harrisburg when they come here to
play the High school team next Fri
day.
Fred w. Cartwright, the tabernacle
keeper of the Slough party, was in tho
city few hours this morning on his
way to Lancaster where a campaign
opens Sunday, and he told some of
his friends on the local detective force
to watch out for an enthusiastic bunch
of boys who might paint the town red
next week If the authorities do not
watch out.
According to his story, the boys of
the Altoona High school basketball
team were about to hit the trail, when
they reconsidered and said they pre
ferred to defer their conversion until
after the trip to Harrisburg, where
they counted on having a real, live,
old-time jollification that
could not De permitted to trailhitters.
to the strictest rules.
SO Fred Cartwright, who is deeply
interested in safety-flrst in Harrisburg.
has given the tip TO the local authori-
ties to keep their eyes open for the
bunch next Friday.

The captain of the American steam

Germany, is reported by a Berlin
newspaper to have said that he wit
messed the destruction of two steam
ers by German submarine.
The first reports of definite effects
on American trade of Great Britains
retaliatory policy against Germany
came from Bremen. 1t is said that
several American vessels which had
been taking on cargoes of German
goods, particularly dyestuffs unloaded
! these cargoes and will return to the
United States in ballast.
Reports Confusing
Although the assault of the allied
fleet on the Dardanelles is continuing
there is such confusion of reports that
IT is impossible to gain a clear idea
of what has been accomplished. The
turkish authorities admit that some
damage has been done to the outer
forts but state that the defenses on
which main reliance is placed are still
intact. From British sources it is re-
ported that the allied fleet has pene-
trated well into the straits and that the
inner fortihcations have been dam
aged badly.
On land important battles are in
progress in the Champagne region or
France, in Northern Poland and in
Galicia. No significant changes In
these encounters however, are an
nounced.

While the Anglo-French fleet is
striking at the Dardanelles, the Rus
