4 at Early Date.

LONDON, Sept. THE Immediate
objective OF the the Austrian-G erman
campaign in Russia becomes clearer
with the growing indication That the
invaders need the Baltic port OF
9 Riga not only as a base for present
operations IN the direction Of Petro-
grad but as winter quarters in case
the attempt to. reacn the Russian
capital should be postponed until
next spring.
experiencing great difficulty in
bridging the portions OF the Dvina
held by the Germans. The current
OF the river is too swift for the con-
struction Of pontoon bridges under
The Russian artillery fire. AS the
rainy season comes on 1t will he
more difficult for the invaders TO
bring up supplies for their advance
forces and consequently the seizure
OF Riga becomes more vital to the
success Of Won Hindenburg's plan.
The urgent necessity Of capturing
Riga is indicated in an army order
which a Paris newspaper credits to
Z General Won Buelow. The general
exhorts his troops to one more eff
fort to capture the port making it
their winter home preparatory to
marching on Petrograd next spring.
Along the other section OF the
eastern front the impetus of the Aus
tro-German rush has been consider
ably checked. Vienna admits that
fierce counter attacks by the Rus
SLAMS have brought the advance
along the Galician border almost to
q standstill. The right wing of the
Austro-G German forces is said to be
contemplating an attack ON Kiev
with Field Marshal Won Mackensn in
command.
No exceptional action has occurred
on any of the minor fronts. The
great artillery bombardment Of the
French continues along the western
line.
No oficial report has yet been
made on the circumstances attend
ing the sinking of the Allen line
steamship Hesperian. There has
been no change in the figures given
out yesterday ny the Allen line indi-
eating the loss Of twelve passengers
and thirteen members of the crew.

IS ARTIFICIAL SUN
Invention OF Scientists for Puri-
fication OF Water.
Is Claimed 70 Have Much the Same
Effect as That Produced by the
Rays Of the sun-In Use
In Europe.

II has long been known that water
allowed TO flow over a bed Of sand. a
natural filter, and subjected TO the
suns rays. soon becomes free from
harmful bacteria. The powerful ster-
liking effect OF the suns rays which
are so effective in destroying germs
has been attributed TO the ultra-vio-
let part OF the light. The problem
for scientists has been TO devise some
way OF employing the sterilizing ef-
fects OF these rays in an effective
amer for human use.
French and German scientists set
about the task and have produced a
new sterilizer. in which. in order that
the maximum amount Of ultraviolet
rays a penetrate the rock crystal,
which is the only solid that will admit
such penetration. The light given out
is vastly richer in ultraviolet rays. in
proportion TO visible rays than In sun
light.
The sterilizing apparatus was test
ed at Marseilles and Rouen. where
typhoid has become an epidemic, and
the results obtained were highly sat
i~sfactory. The French carried one Of
the sterilizers into Morocco and the
freedom OF the troops from ravages
OF typhoid. which ragged among the
Moors. a attributed by the army
surgeons largely TO the use OF the
ray-sterilized water. Reports OF tests
made in the Austrian army shows a
similar success for the system. and
the United States army surgeons In
the Philippines declare that the rays
destroyed the harmful bacilli in the
water there and also the amelia. which
abound in practically all tropical wa
tiers.
The rays. IL is said, may also be
used for purifying the waters Of pub
lie baths and their use will be espe-
cially valuable in keeping the water
Of swimming pools pure and free from
lurking danger OF germs. The cost
OF the apparatus Is comparatively low
An outfit OF $50 gallons per hour
capacity costing in the neighborhood
OF $500. Cost Of operation is slight
where electric current is available.
and the operation OF the machine does
not require a high degree Of skill.
Further use for the invention will
be found in purifying water for the
manufacture Of artificial ice. in bot
Ting works and other Industries. in
which the purity of water used should
be al important consideration. Ex-
periments are now being made to find
a means for adopting the rays 10 the
sterilization OF milk and it is thought
that such an APPARATUS making use OF
the ultraviolet principle will ultimate
ly be evolved.
