 Large display advertisements are being used in the daily newspapers of Buff falo, N. r., announcing the completion and successful operation of the Western Electric-Davis flood-lighting system on the American cataract and rapids at Niagara Falls, N. Y.. and the operation of the new Spanish aerial tramway over the Whirlpool in the lower river rapids. These two new attractions at the Cata- ract City have greatly increased travel over the Buffalo and Niagara Falls di- vision of the International railway and over the Upper Bridge and Park and River divisions along the Canadian gorge Cars are now being operated from Buff falo on a 15-minute schedule throughout the day and in the early evening traffic has been so heavy a 7h-minute schedule has been put into effect. Cars are op- erated every few minutes over the Park and River division between the Cana dian end of the Upper Bridge and the Whirlpool where the Spanish tramway Is located. The Niagara Gorge railway. operating the American gorge route line along the lower river, has put into op- eration an especially constructed flat car upon which is mounted powerful electric searchlight. The searchlight car precedes number of open observation cars through the Niagara gorge at night on a searchlight trip of the lower river rapids This has increased travel through the gorge and over the gorge route belt line at night. No extra charge Is made for the night trip.

 cruits for Army

Washington, October s.-virtually A house-to-house campaign throughout the nation is being planned by the war de- partment to obtain the 100000 regular army recruits it will be necessary to enlist annually hereafter in order to keen the army up to the strengt hauthorized by Congress in the reorganization and appropriation bills
 According to new recruiting order, made public today, 'to meet demands for the present and the immediate fu- ture, the recruiting service must be capa- ble of furnishing annually an averatge of one recruit per 1000 of population, and this result can be accomplished only bv canvassing every accessible locality in the United States and establishing through the aid of available postmasters g. conveniently located recruiting agency for each small area.'
 The new plan contemplates establish ing such agencies in every county seat From these bases recruiting parties will be sent to comb the rural districts. Ta- bles have been prepared to show recruit Ing officers on the exact number of re- cruits who should be obtained in each county.
 Authority Is given under the law to enlist for service within continental Uni- ted States only men who desire to take advantage of the provision that they may be furloughed into the regular army service at the end of one year of active service, if the furlough is approved by their commanding officers

 Onward Rush Begins

London, October S.-The British lines on the Somme front north and northeast of Courcelette have been considerably advanced, 1t was officially announced to- day.

 running when the destroyers started with the wind southwest and the weather thick. The admiral said the passengers
 and crews picked up by his fleet would be taken direct to Newport. Just before 8 o'clock tonight a radio message was picked up here stating that the British freight steamer Kingston had been sunk by a submarine. This was later confirm ed by Admiral Knight at Newport All on board the steamer were picked up by one of the destroyers sent out from New port. The passengers of the Stephano another message said. had been taken aboard the American destroyer Balch The steamer Kansan, which turned back to help the West Point, later proceeded on her course and tonight was reported coming into Boston harbor.

Found position of torpedo boat was nearer to West Point than that of the Kansan, so gave up search and am proceeding to Boston. SMITH.

Milloinaire's Fight for a City Job

Raymond Everette White in Leslie's.
 Asa G. Candler, who has made a suc- cess of every business enterprise he has ever touched; who has more money in- vested in Atlanta and Atlanta realty than any other 10 men, perhaps; who, 25 years ago, was drug store clerk and today is the righest man south of Mason and Dixons line; who never sought nor held a public office during his 62 years of life; who is anything but a politician Asa G. Candler was the man unanimous ly chosen by business Atlanta to make the fight against the politicians. Candler demurred-at first flatly re- fused He summed the publicity the mo- toriety, the mud and slime of political campangn. But after days of persuasion, and when the matter was put up to him on the basis of his duty to the city he yielded Subsequently it was that At lanta witnessed the refreshing spectacle unique in American history--of city s first citizen and richest man, a hard working, industrious old patriot, worth not a penny under $30, ,00O, GOO, down in the wards, speaking night after night and monday after monday, asking the people to elect him to an office paying a salary of $40O0 a year!
 He appealed to the small tradesmen, the man in overalls, the modest home owner-the go per cent"-for votes, to save Atlanta and restore confidence ' These were the votes he was after, be- cause he had the others before he ac- cepted the nomination. And upon that vote the battle hinged, because. running against Candler was union linotype op- orator, a man of clean character and considerable ability, who is member of the city council, and who claimed the 'solid support of labor and the voters of small means. His appeal was that he alone was "the peoples candidate, the poor mans friend and salvation" while opposing him was capitalism personi- fied!'
 For 10 stirring days the battle went on, and it was the most spectacular cam paign ever waged in Dixie-the success full business man, with record for per formance against the printer, with high sounding promises. Each appealed for labor's support; the one on the high ground of confidence, conscientiousness. investment smokestacks; the other on the cries of money rule" rights of la bor," "big wages 'plutocracy."
 The poll books showed approximately f, 900 registered white voters-and this was distinctly a white" primary. An unprecedented number of these-11 533- went to the polls and voted. Candler, 1921; his opponent, 3721; that is how they vOted

LARGE AUDIENCE
 HEARS DIR. EDMONDS

An audience that completely filled the capacity of the Lyric theatre heard Dr. H M. Edmonds last night preach a most in- spring sermon. Defining salvation as the gracious gift of God put into the open hand of our faith. pr. Edmonds spoke of the growth and progress of the church. According to the zeal each in- dividua1 that had the power that filled them from Gods work and labor SC would the church advance.
 pr. Edmonds spoke of the son of Dr. Eaves, who fell in battle somewhere in France" giving his life for principle; strong in his convictions in the cause he thought was right. Alfred Eaves leaves an example worth yof emulation. "Oh, would we, as Christians, with the same zeal and courage battle daily for our Lord what a church it would be- con- cluded the speaker

New York to Guatemala by Rail G lliSon in World Outlnnk for Oc


 tober.
 Then as another example of American enterprise, one ought to see the rail- roads of Guatemala which have recently been merged in the so-called Interna- tional Railways of Central America. Were 1t not for the present interruption of traffic in Mexico, one could go from New York to Guatemala City by rail This railway crosses and weaves in and out along the backbone of the continent. Its location, construction and maintenance are engineering feats of the highest or der. Washouts and landslides had to be guarded against; innumerable bridges and tunnels had to be built. What was little more than a creek one day might the next become a raging torrent. In one place it was necessary to climb some $500 feet in less than 90 miles, However. locations permitting of practical grades were found. and the railroads of Guate- mala stand today as monument to the triumphant skill of American engineers. As we travelled over this road we felt again the romance of those early days of the construction work as pictured by o. Henry in his "Cabbages and Kings"

Jitneys Curtail Trains

From the Electric Railway Journal
 Within month after the paving of the highway between Astoria and Seaside, 10 miles apart on the Oregon coast near the mouth of the Columbia river a fleet of Jitney buses appeared and absorbed practically all the passenger traffic be- tween these two points. The jitneys did not cut fares. but, on the contrary, establ lished a charge of $1 for the same trip that could be made by rail for 75 cents. Passengers preferred the jitneys even at the higher rate and within a short time the Spokane, Portland and Seattle rail- road, branch of which system connects these two cities, was running trains with only two or three passengers to the car. On August 27 the company discontinued formerly been requihed to handle ~the traffic.

SHIPPING PARALYZED

Philadelphia, October S.-News of the German submarine activities off the New England coast caused considerable anx- iety in shipping circles here Nearly a score of vessels are loading supplies for the allies in this port and shipping men said it is possible that some sailings will be cancelled or routes changed.
 Three foreign vessels which sailed from Philadelphia recently, carrying cargoes consigned to allies, are believed to be menaced. They are the British steam ship Media, which cleared from here yes- terday for St. Nazaire; the French steam CT Vile de Majunga. with cargo of lubricating oil for Gibraltar, and the British steamer Meteor for London. The Media and Meteor carry general cargoes.
 Boston, October 8.-At g o'clock tonight all the passengers and crews of the tor pedoed vessels had been accounted for with the exception of the crew of the Kingston. These were missing and were being sought by the American destroyer Gushing. It is supposed that the crew of the Kingston took to their life-b boats.
 The weather off shore was thick to- night, but the sea was calm with little wind stirring

Nrofolk, October S.-Despite warning from the British ambassador, five British ships went to sea today loaded with mixed cargoes for the allies They were the Sahara, Maroineth, Monkshaven, Hamer City and Verdala. The British ambassador warned shipping masters to give the New England coast a wide berth and also advised them, according to re- ports, that conveys could not be fur nished each ship.

SHIPS GO OUT

Baltimore, October S.-Foreign outgoing shipping has been practically paralyzed. Seven British steamers which cleared Sat urday were still tied up tonight, and their captains said they had been or dered to stay until told to leave by the consignors. One Italian steamer, the San Antonio, sailed for Genoa. There prob ably are 40 British steamers here load ing
