Committee Changes Mind.

AT "a meeting of the central COM
mittoe in September another protest
was filed by the curry forces and this
time the committee saw it differently
and changed their mind-they decid-
ed Mr. curry should be the nominee.
And since 1t was getting so close to
election the public thought Mr.. Curry
would continue to be the nominee
Now the court has an opportunity to
take hand in the affair.
Considerable interest attaches to the
suit aside from fractional fight be-
cause the primaries were not on a
legal footing in the first place. since
there is no primary law in the state.
Whether or not legal procedure under
these conditions is possible is being
watched with considerable interest by
both democrats and republicans
Regardless of the outcome of this

Ucan candidate would be elected even

Burgess in the Lead
Although there is no organization in
Mt. Union at present to endeavor to
change the William Penn Highway
route, Burgess A. S. Welch, who is
also the editor Of the Mount Union
Times, Is planning to call a meeting
OF all those interested through the
columns of his papers. Burgess Welch
explained how road could be brought
from Newton Hamilton to Mount
Union and how badly a bridge was
needed across the river so that the
men employed at the powder plant
could be accommodated. Mount
Union is very busy town." said the
burgess. and there is no town in this
territory which has grown as rapidly
as this. BY running the highway
over the present proposed route, our
town will be eliminated and we be-
lieVe that because of our activities
and our business in Newton Hamilton,
McNeytown and Lewistown we should
nave a direct road to those places.
Tourists will find points of interest

difficulty in having it brought around
this way and also that it will mean the
construction of another bridge across
the Juniata but we are sure that the
many advantages the bridge will have

doing it. Just think that men who
work at a plant little more than q
mile from the town are compelled to
travel seven miles one way, or nine
miles another to get to their place

bridge at the place it is so badly

electric lights continued to burn.
Mr.. Huxley described the scene on
the Sussex after the explosion as hor-
rible. He could give no estimate of
the number of persons killed, further
than TO say that many lives were lost.
He would venture no opinion whether
the disaster was caused by a mine or
a torpedo.
Boston Man Rescued
Edward Huxley. president of the
United States Rubber Export Com
pany, and Francis E. Drake, European
manager of the company, are among
the Americans rescued from the Sus-
sex. They report that there was a
heavy loss of life. including probably
several Americans.
The fate of the Sussex is not yet GER
tain. One message says she was towed
TO Boulogne and another says she was
beached. A number of Americans
cross the channel by almost every pas
senger steamer, most of them on bust
ness. Bookings are not made in ad-
vance for particular steamers. Pas
sengers having passports entrain at
London and their names are taken
when they go aboard steamers. A
large number of Americans obtained
permits to go to France during the
last week.
Chief Engineer Killed
The chief engineer of the Sussex
was killed by the explosion and the
purser was wounded seriously.
An American whose name is not
known to survivors who have reached
London was talking with the Bald
win family, close to the captains
bridge, when the explosion occurred.
He has not been seen since that time
and is supposed TO have been lost.
Vessel Stays Afloat
The explosion occurred at about 8
p. m. when the Sussex was an hour
and a half out of Folkestone. The
wireless apparatus was destroyed and
no help arrived until nearly midnight.
Had it not been for the water-tight
compartments, the Sussex would have
sunk and the loss of life would have
been heavier.
American Woman Hurt
Miss Baldwin, daughter of a promi-
nent American resident of Paris, was
injured seriously on the Sussex.
Miss Baldwin's father and mother
also were on board the vessel. All
have been taken to Boulogne. In ad-
dition to other injuries Miss Baldwin's S
leg was broken.

The Sussex carried IL lifeboats and
several RATS. The lifeboats were low

discipline was maintained.
Boat Overturns
The second boa which was lowered
containing 40 persons was overturned,
ed overheard. Gratings and pieces of
furniture were thrown to them. More
than half of those who leaped lost
their lives.
Five Bodies on Board
The foremasts and wireless appa-
ratus were blown away by the eXplo-
sion. The wireless operator attempted
unsuccessfully to rig a substitute.
Persons who embarked in the boats
returned to the Sussex before dark.

part of the night and at about mid
night trawler came to the rescue

UNCLE SAM PAYS A MILLION
And Gets Title to Alaskan Railroad.
(By United Press. J

WASHINGTON, July 5.-One more
big step was taken in the develop
ment by Uncle Sam of Alaska today
when he paid the final $1,00O,0O0 for
title to the Alaska Northern Rail
road. Five hundred Thousand dollars
of the million and half purchase
price was paid last February. To-
days payment marks the transfer of
the title to the property from the orig
inal owners to the American govern
ment From the time of the first
payment until the final payment to-
day the title has been in the hands of
trust company here. This payment
is the forerunner of the actual open
ing of the coal lands of Alaska to
settlers this fall. Secretary of the
Interior Lane doesn't know exactly
when this opening will be announced,
but it is expected to be before early
winter sets in. The Matanuska coal
fields of Alaska are among the rich
est in the world; and the small miner
is to be given a chance to make
living and competence from small
claims Uncle Sam will parcel out
The government has carefully guard
ed these coal lands from monopoliza-
ton of big holding companies. In
stopping the development of all
claims raoardlacc of 1uho hold thano
just to be sure to keep the lands from
being monopolized, Uncle Sam has
stood up so straight he has bent over
backward. Hundreds of small inves-
tors will welcome the opening of the
fields. Work begun on the extension

railroad line to the heart of the coal
fields is being rushed to completion
by thousands of laberers. Some of
these groups of workers have built

pushed on up from Matanuska river

THE STORY OF THE
DISGUSTING FACE

LONDON, June 27.-(By Mail)-
The story of the Disgusting Face, or
a personal fued in the trenches in
Northern France, was told here today
in letter from a British officer. The
letter is divided into three chapturs
as follows:
1.-THE Disgusting face, trimmed
with ristles, .surmounted by gray,
peaked forage cap which appeared to
be more than half filled with some
edible matter than in process of mas
tication, stuck itself over the German
parapet in front of my observation
station two mornings age. II re-
ceived the full shock of its ugliness.
There the brute stood, squirting his
pudgy nose about in enjoyment of the
pure morning air and utterly disfgur-
ing the pretty landscape. II grabbed
the infantry outlook's rifle and pump
ed five shots at the face as quickly
as I could pull the trigger and work
the lever. The face withdrew.
Something like an hour later l
was again surveying the smiling val
ley. The Disgusting Face was gone;
but in its place new arrangement Of
sand bags on the trench parapet and
the presence of sheet of boilder plat
ing attracted my attention-very
hearty fatally. There was sort of
wink from the middle of the boilder-
plate, sharp crack and then my cap
skidded from my head and rolled in
the mud at the bottom of the trench.
Before | had collected my thoughts
sufficiently to duck, something said
"Phew" right in my ear. Then l
ducked- smartly. got periscope and
saw something look over the top of
