London, March 24.-The white flag
was hoisted on the fortress of Pre-
mysl on Monday and the Russian
army entered the city without firing a
shot after siege of six months to the
day that has few parallels in history
Fifty thousand Austrian soldiers, zoe
officers and nine generals threw down
their arms and surrendered, worn to
the last extremity by disease and
hunger. The fall of the fortress is re.
garded in Petrograd and London as
the greatest victory for Russian arms
since the beginning of the war.
Following up quickly the advantage
gained by the capture of the Austrian
stronghold, the Russian army has be-
gun a gigantic battle along the en-.
tire Carpathian front. Reinforce
ments have been rushed into the
mountains in the expectation of the
fall of Przemysl and everywhere the
Austrians are being attacked with
marked stubbornness.

has sailed forth to attack the Rus

For months the only means Of com

There have been indications recent
ly that hunger was an effective ally
of the Russians, for it was reported
that aeroplanes were making daily
flights to Przemysl with cargoes OF

Idol Of New York Theatre Goere
Takes Stellar Role in Screen
Play.

Lillian Lorraine, who is to star in
! the serial, Meal of the Navy" was
born in San Francisco in 1892 Like
a number of other of the popular stage
favorites OF the day, she made her de-
but before the fOOtlights at a very
early age, playing Eva" in Uncle
Toms Cabin" when she was only four
years old. Subsequently she took a
child's part with stock company at
the old Central Theatre while attend
ing the public schools. At the age of
fourteen she left San Francisco for
New York, just three months before
the big earthquake. She obtained a
small part in musical comedy under
Richard Golden almost Immediately on
her arrival. Her next engagement
was with Eddie Foy in 1.-THE Orchid"
half time in chorus and half doing
small part Because of her striking
personality Mr. Foy soon took her
out of the chorus and gave her a
song. The impression she made re-
suited in her being given an engage
ment in "The Great White Way" with
Blanche Ring and Jeff De Angels.
Her first real chance came when she
was engaged by Florence Ziegfield to
appear In support of Anna Held in
Miss Innocence" The next year saw
further advance in that she was
featured in the 1909 Follies" with
Nora Bayes and Jack Norworth. She
remained with the "Follies" for the
next three years, being starred in the
"Follies of 1912" when Nora Bayes
dropped out.
She became the sensation and ia
vorite of Broadway in a remarkably
short time. She broke into vaudeville
with a six months engagement over
the U. B. o. eastern time as head
line feature in a single singing act
with original songs. In 1914 she was
featured in the big "Whirl of the
World" cast, an all-the-season New
York success. She was filling anoth-
er U. B. o. vaudeville engagement
when approached by H. NJ. Horkheim-
err, of Balboa, who induced her to ap-
pear in pictures for the first time in
Meal of the Navy" which he was
about to put on for Pathe. Previously
she had turned down many flattering
offers from film manufacturers.
Miss Lorraine still preserves her
fondness for musical comedy and ex-
poets to appear in New York in big
production this fall. She has been fire.

and hopes eventually to be seen there

did fitness for this line of dramatic
endeavor. Miss Lorraine is especial
~ well known in New York for. like
most OF the great favorites of the
stage. she has been featured there
steadily in Broadway productions.

er attempt to recover from the gov

when Secret Service agents branded

A letter from the woman was re.
ccived shortly after the announce
ment was made of tie receipt of $40,
600 from New York City. The wom
an said that she was a resident of Ro
chester, that her husband had sent the
money while he was crazy and seri-
ously i'll.
"He is now dying" she continued,
land | need the money, it is all that
is left. Please return the money to
me. No sound mind would do such 3
thing"
The letter was mailed on railway
train between Sterling and Peoria, H.,
it described the money, as the news
papers did, and asked that it be sent
to Rochester.
The Rochester postmaster received
letter from the woman, saying that
if any valuable mail was received for
her to please forward it to Van Pat

man.
All these facts were uncovered by
the Secret Service. The woman's
name is being withheld. 1t is believ-
ed to be fake one.
1t was explained at the Treasury
Department today that it would take
an act of Congress to get the money
out of the Treasury, after it has been

YAWN CAUSES TURMOIL.

Philadelphia, Aug. 11.-Mrs. Mary
Glass, of 1910 Spangle street, will be
very careful in the future about in
dulging in the luxury of yawning. If
she yawns at all it will be neces Sary
when talking to a particularly bore
some person, or when she is. very,
very sleepy, and even then it will be
a mild yawn.
This is the reason: Mrs. Glass al
lowed herself the luxury of deep,
ferocious yawn last night as she was
preparing for bed. Then she let out
a veil that caused her husband to dash
into the room. Glass saw she was
suffering, called a patrol wagon and
had her taken to the Polytechnic Hos
pital Physicians said she had yawned
so wide she had snapped her jaw out
of place. Doctor Finkler and three
physicians worked over her until the
jaw snapped back in place.
