SEIZING ALL RUBBER
Germany Strips Autos and Other Ve-
 hiClcS With Resilient Tires-Pun- isIhment For Those Who Hold Back.

Vienna, Sept, 1.-For the second time since the beginning of the war the government has found it neces- sary to step in and confiscate the rub Der supply The second confscation which continued until August 10, is so drastic and far-reaching that it is going to put taXicabs, many horse cabs, motor cycles and a host of other things out of commission.
 In announcing it's step the govern ment declares that the army is plen- tifully supplied still with automatic tires and the like, but declares there exists a need for synthetic Or "regen- erated' rubber that can be filled only in this way. In consequence all own CTS of prospective owners of solid tires, outer tires, or inner tubes, re- gardless of their condition, must con- tribute. Bicycles are almost the only things exempted.
 Automobile and carriage owners are hardest hit Vienna and the larger cities of Austria still have more plentiful supply of cars than Ger many but these and the two-horse cabs equipped with pneumatic tires, it is expected, will go.
 The person who attempts to cir cumVent the new regulation may be punished with six months imprison- ment, or fined 1000 Kronen, if he fails to turn in every bit of rubber tire material he possesses on the day allotted
 The first rubber conflscation was in November of last year, and was more successful than expected. So much rubber was discovered that the mili- tary storehouses were filled, and 1t was possible to turn back some of the tires to private individuals.

both fronts, the most radical change in the German army since the war began. The appointment of von Hin denburg, the national war idol, has been acclaimed generally with enthu- siastic satisfaction, Berlin reports. The newspapers of Berlin unite in saying that the emperor has fulfilled the long cherished wish of the German people, who are declared to have unlimited confidence in the victor of Tannen- berg. The appointment to quartermas- ter general on the general staff of General von Ludendorff (pictured above,) who had been von H1nden- burg's chief of staff on the eastern front, is also 8 popular move. Gen. eral von FsaIkenhayn, the dismissed chief, still remains in the imperial graces. Important work is being map ped out for him by the kaiser, it is reported.
New Britain herald., 1916-09-01

The Hague correspondent of the Exchange Telegraph reports that Kaiser Wilhelm dismissed General von Falkenhayn, chief of the German gen. eral staff and put Field Marshal Von Hindenburg in his place because Falkenhayn was opposed to sending troops to the eastern front to meet Inc Rumanian invasion. Won Hinden- burg urged that re-enforcements be sent to Austria and won the support of the kaiser with the result that Ger man troops have now been rushed to the defense of Pennsylvania. The change in the general staff means the dismissal of thirty German generals on

law take its course in criminal cases,
Dr. J. w. McNaughton is making a

DR.. McNaughton is now serving a

ATLANTA BOARDING HOUSES
PUSH UP PRICES ON BOARDERS

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. 17.-Mr Score
Keeper! Ring up another for old
Il. G. of l.!
Boarding houses have caught the
fever Of increased prices, or have
been compelled to advance their rates
because the price of groceries and
ether necessities is soaring which
ever you choose to put it-with the
result that bachelor boys and bachelor
men and bachelor girls and bachelor
maids. are having to dig down deeper
into their pockets.
There is no way out of it, declares
our fat friend, the landlady. Meat up.
Lard up. Flour up. Sugar up. Ev-
eIything out of sight. That's the way
she dopes it out. And the worst OF
it is, for the boarders, that she's tell
ing the truth.

Barely Missed The Marina En-
Route To America And Home

Miss Bramscomb talks Interestingly
Of the thrills of the war land; the Pc
culiar Partisan topics; her passage
through England. 1t seems that she
had made all reservations on the Mar
ina, and had left London for Glas-
gov to take the boat. On reaching
there kilograms advised her that all
bookings had been cancelled because
the boat had been Communicated by
the government. Immediately book
ings were made for the Tuscania from
Liverpool, and from that port she sail
ed safely to New York.
Miss Bramscomb leaves tonight with
Mrs. Richardson for Albany, where
she will visit before going to hel
home in Union Springs.

SAVANNAH, Ga, Nov 17.-Savan-

movement to have created a Georgia
state examining board, such as is now
required Of doctors, dentists, lawyers
and other professional men. The
movement is incipient with the Amer

there is a branch in Atlanta, and has

Booked for passage on the Inflated
Marina, the British boat sunk by a
torpedo from a German submarine
several days ago; deprived of her res
ervations because of sudden order
from the government taking it away
from commercial travel, and then
safely booked on the Tuscania, landing
in New York on last Tuesday, are the
interesting events in connection
with Miss Jessie Brascomb, in the city
today as the guest of Mrs. Allie Hayes
Richardson. Miss Bramscomb is from
Union Springs, Ala, and has been in
China in missionary work for three
years, leaving there in June and re
turning via Europe. In her travels
