the company made very good showing
although nearly one-half of the guards
were "rookies.
That afternoon the band was instruct
ed by Major Hagan on first aid work
and the use of splints and bandages.
This instruction was valuable, in view
of the fact that in actual war fare the
band would be called upon to do first
aid and hospital work.
Bandmaster Leitsinger is holding
morning rehearsals of the band in the
Y. NJ. c. A. tent, and special attention
is being paid to classical selections

THREATENED LIFE OF
PRESIDENT WILSON
Writer of Letter Arrested by U. S. OF
ficers and Held in Jail at
San Antonio, Tex

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, August 5. =
Charged with threatening the life of
President Wilson and also with threat
ening to kill former President Theodore
Roosevelt, F. II. Juergens, % years of
age, is in Jail here today in default of
50, 900 bail. The charges were preferred
by j. L. Camp, United States district
attorney. Juergens was arrested after
the alleged letter to President Wilson
had been mailed at Austin and inter
cepted by post office inspectors. 1t was
written on stationery of known
business man of Austin and signed with
his name, but he was not believed to
be connected with the affair.
The letter to President Wilson as
serted that the writer was a member
of an alliance of $50 men who would
not rest until the United States OBJ
served "strict and impartial neutrali-
ty,' the test of which would be the re-
fusal of this country to sell munitions
to the allies. Until this purpose was
accomplished the writer threatened the
destruction of the national capitol, the
White House and finally the life of the
chief executive.

WORCESTER, Mass, August ). = A
mill dam $50 feet long and Is feet high
holding back a reservoir covering 300
acres at the saw mill and box shop of
the Roper Lumber and Box Co, in
Princeton was washed away as a result
of the heavy rains last night. The
flood of water released when the dam
broke swept away three highway
bridges and washed out the roads so
that the hamlet was practically isolated.
| A torrent of water tore through tho
Roper mill to a depth of six inches in
the second story, running much of the
| machinery in the first story which was
entirely submerged.
One side of the dam at Bartlett i

WARSAWS FALL
IS A CERTAINTY
London Military Observers Now Concerned Over
Outcome of German Turning Movement Which
Threatens Petrograds Warsaw Railway = Rus
SLAMS Resisting Stubborny

Warsaw, with its population OF near
ly 100000, the third largest city Of
the Russian empire, capitulated to tho
armies of Emperor William today. The
fortress was stormed by Bavarian
troops under the leadership of Prince
Leopold of Bavaria. The evacuation OF
tho Polish capital had been under way
several days and most of the govern
mental institutions had been removed
before tho Teutons succeeded in forcing
the gates of the city.
Three previous German attempts to
capture the city were resisted by tho
Russians and the fourth great drive
which ended successfully today for
German arms had been in progress since
last May.
LONDON, August ), 1914 p. NJ
Warsaw s fall is now considered in
London to be so certain that its fate
has ceased to be matter of spccula-
tion, and the vast turning movement
of the Germans to the northward of
the Polish capital is exciting the con
Germ of the entente allies.
1t is feared by observers here that
She evacuation of Warsaw may be too
late to save the armies of the Grand
Duke Nicholas from the grave disaster
which would be inevitable if Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg should get
astride the Warsaw-Petrograd rail
way. .. ..
In Io
defending the line of the river Ekau
east of Mitau. This means that the
Germans are at a point 40 miles south
of Riga and within about one marcf
of that town. The critical situation al
Riga is indicated by the evacuation OF
the city by the non-military element
Of the population, the bankers being
the last to leave.
German cavalry forces are scourin,
the country III such numbers that tn,
WarsawPctrograd line always is il
danger. Fifty miles west of Dvinsl
heavy fighting is in progress with tn
Russions resisting stubbornly as tn
breaking of their defense here wGul
mean the early loss of Dvinsk, a mos
important junction of the Petrograd
Warsaw railroad.
Berlin reports that the German
have occupied the western portion Q
Ivangorod fortress, but Pctrogra
claims the Ivangorod Warsaw railroa
still is open.
A significant phase of the near-eas
ern operations which has passed a
most unnoticed is revealed in the al
nouncement from Pctrograd of the d.
struction of almost 900 Turkish cra1
in the Black sea by Russian torp
do boat notilla. More than 500
these vessels were sailing ships, whic
had been built to carry supplies fro
the Anatolian coast
The persistence of the Turks
building these ships despite their co
tinucd destruction is accepted here
meaning that Constantinople is in dc
perate need of supplies.
The British board of trade repo
for July shows that 62 British stea
ers and sailing craft were sunk by t
Germans during the month with lC
Of G3 lives, while four steamers a
10 lives were lost by mines.
