Dubuque, Sept S.-The magnificent
new buildings of Wartburg College and
Seminary, German Lutheran institu-
ton. located on the southwest outskirts
of this city. are to be dedicated with
appropriate exercises Wednesday and
Thursday of next week, Sept. IS and Ia.
The main dedicatory ceremonies will be
held on Wednesday and on that day
several thousand LutheranS from Iowa
and neighboring states will be present.
Special trains will be operated on at
least two railroads. The Dubuque COM
mercial club is assisting in prepara-
tons for caring for the large number
of strangers who will be here for the
full two days.
Wartburg seminary. tho it was not
known by that name at the time, was
established Nov. 10, 1858, when Rev.
George Grossman opened school IN
this city, calling it the Lutheran Theo-
logical Seminary. He was a missionary
sent to the United States by Rev. Will
lam Loehe of Bavaria, for the purpose
of educating missionaries. When the
school opened there were but five stu
dents. Today the Evangelical Lutheran
synod of Iowa and other states. COM
prising 500 ministers and 1900 congre-
cations, represents the product of the
seminary
Seminary Frequently Moved.
In 1857 re seminary was moved to
st. Sebald. in Clayton county. This
move was made that certain necessities
could be raised on a farm that had been
purchased there. WnIle located al ST.
Sebald the name was changed TO Wart-
burg.
In 1874 the growth of the school
caused it to be removed to Mendoza,
H.. and in 1889 it was moved back to
Dubuque, to the present location, again
because of growth.
Gottfried and Sigmund F'ritschel,
brothers. were the leading professors Of
the seminary from 1857 to 1889 and
1900. respectively. Gottfried died in
1889 and Sigmund in 1900 At the pres
ent time the faculty is composed OF NJ.
Frtschell, D. D., president: NJ. Reu, D.
d. treasurer: George ]. Fritschel. p. D.,

fifth member has been called.
At the present time there are sixty
students enrolled.

VIOLATIONS.
BOARD EMPLOYS AGENT

Special Effort to Be Made to Recap
ture Men Who Escape and Others
Who Violate Paroles-Limitation on
Custom Of Granting Partial Freedom
May Be Found Advisable.

Des Moines, Sept. S.-As a step
capes from the Fort Madison peniten-
tiary. the state board of control yes
terday authorized Warden J. c. San
ders to employ former Sheriff Camp
bell, of Fairfield, as special agent to
recapture escaped prisoners.
The report of the Fort Madison
penitentiary for August shows FIVE
prisoners to nave escaped. Two got
away by climbing the walls. Three
others violated honor paroles. All five
are still at large.
In the last twelve months thrte life
prisoners violated honor parole and
escaped from the prison farm. Some
months ago a convict named Williams
got away in an automobile furnished by
friends outside the institution. At the
time of escape civilians had been Il
trusty for ten years.
Earl Lindsays Escape.
On Aug. IS, 1916, Earl ". Lindsay.
ColfaX aviator, serving a life sentence
for criminal assault. and Arnold Zim-
mer, Burlington man who murdered
his victim while robbing him, escaped
from the prison farm in a guards
automobile. The automobile was found
the following day at Monmouth, Ill.
where it was abandoned when the two
escaped prisoners boarded Burlington
train. 1t is thought that a relative of
thinner aided in the escape. Lindsay
is expected to make for France or
England to join the aviation corps in
the war zone.
A. j. Wayman, a youth who killed
his father at Indianola is the fifth man
who escaped. He ran away from the
camp at Woodward on Aug. 20. He
Is still at large.
The reformatory at Anamosa report
ed the escape of six honor prisoners
In July. The August report has not
vet reached the state house.
Honor System at Stake.
The escape of so many men at this
time has caused the state officials
much concern. They consider that the
honor system Of treatment Of prisoners
is at stake and repeated violation Of
honor parole may discredit it. The
Limitation of granting honor paroles
may be necessary in handling the stu
alton, according to some of the off,
ciaIs. The board Of control is keeping
in close touch with the Fort Madison
situation.
The August report Of Warden San
Gers includes an unusual case. One
prisoner whose term had expired began
serving a new term for attempted
criminal assault made while he was a
prisoner in the penitentiary.
Frank Russell and William Fitzpat-
rick are the two prisoners who escaped

Monfalcone against a rather feeble
resistance, but the heights Of the
Carso barred them from further ad-
vance. From then on a variety Of
experiments were tried, none Of them
compellingly successful. Even the
capture Of 10000 prisoners did not
give the Italian forces enough Of ad-
vantage to decide the campaign, and
the trench warfare continued in q
deadlock for the long months which
preceded the present successful adj
vance.
What must seem most dispiriting
to the Austrians Is the failure, the
inability, no doubt, of the German
forces to aid and support them. In
the early part Of the war Austria
would not have had to face alone her
present problems, but Germany must
hold her western lines, and to do that
she cannot divide her power. Aus
tria must work out her own saliva

is not decisive, 1t points a situation

THE DEUTSCHLAND'S DYES

After some considerable delay the
dyestuffs which formed the cargo of
the Deutschland have been put on
the market. Their sale brings out
some rather interesting facts about
this first undersea shipment.
The German shippers made as
much as they were able of the op-
portunity to send the much wanted
products to American users for every
one Of the dyestuffs offered for sale
is In the most highly concentrated
form.
Some Of the more rare and ex-
pensive Of the concentrates have
twelve times the strength of the
normal dyes shipped before the wal.
And the prices reflect both the con-
centrated condition and the lack of
supply, for materials which sold be-
fore hostilities for 10 cents a pound
are being doled out to anxious
buyers for prices that reach climax
in the violet dyes at $40 a pound.
There is little chance that the i'm
porters will get into any misunder-
standing with the Government on
differentiation so long as these
figures prevail.

GORILLA

Without attempting any Of the ex-
aggeration which attends the win
ming Of a spectacular victory and
without ascribing to General Ca
dorna the credit for deciding the
fate of Austria by the winning of
Gorilla, it must nevertheless be said
that the Italian advance is another
indication Of the increasingly dcs-
perate straits In which the Austrian
forces are finding themselves.
The reports from Gorizia give q
variety of explanation as to the
causes contributing to the italian
success. A tunnel dug in secret is
one explanation, a new device for
the hurting of bombs is another, and
probably neither of these had any
deciding effect. It was the result
of a long continued hammering. Of
the Austrian forces, who as the days
went by, were unable to strengthen
themselves or receive help from the
Germans.
The overcoming Of the Austrians
at Gorilla has been long task. It
was a year ago in May that Cadorna
occupied Caporetto. 1t was during
the following month that he took

IT DIDN'T STICK

Secretary Redfield seems to have
picked up something hot when he un-
dertook to deny the statement
made by Mr.. Hughes that Mr.. Du-
rand was ousted from the Federal
Census Bureau for political pur-
poses.
Nobody knows better than Mr.. Du-
rand himself why he was forced out,
and his letter to Mr.. Hughes read at
Minneapolis yesterday puts Mr.. Red
field in rather uncomfortable posi-
ton.
The fact that the Secretary Of
Commerce has in his files letter of
resignation from Mr.. Durand does
not 60 very far to substantiate a
contention that he was not removed
when it is shown that the resignation
was a forced one and the result, as
Mr.. Durand says Mr.. Redfeld told
him, of IAN intention to create va
cancy."
It is one thing to call man liar,
even in polite language; it 5 quite
another to convince the public and
make the title stick. Mr.. Redfeld's
first attempt lacked mucilage.
