Wierman. aged rs years, died at his
home in Carroll township near Dills-
burg on Tuesday. Mr.. Wierman had
been ill for several years, suffering

Tuesday morning his condition be-
came critical and a call was sent
for a physician, but before he ar
rived Mr.. Wierman died. He was
fence builder by trade and was
engaged in that business for many
years in nearly every part of this sec
ton. He was well known in politi-
cal circles, and was one of the most
active Democrats in Carroll town

for a number of years. He is sur
vived by his wife, two daughters,
Mrs. Anna Holtzenger. of Harris
burg, and Mrs. Willis King, of Mon
oghan township; also one grandson,

English Language
of German Origin

The English language is not native
TO ngland-strange to say. 1t was
carried there by the fierce German
warriors who conquered that island
nearest cousins to-day are to be found
in the rude dialects of the islands
along the German coast.
When our AngloSaxon ancestors
first came to plunder and ravage
Britain they found a people more ad-
vanced in the Arts and Sciences than
themselves. For the Celts of England
had inherited the Roman civilization
of an earlier day. 1t is curious to
think that If the old Teutons had
never Invaded England we would now
be speaking language similar to
French. Spanish. or Italian-of Latin
derivation. The Anglo-Saxon or old
English language belongs to the Teu-
tonic speech.
,,. The latter has several principal
from which come the Danish and
Swedish tongues; the high German,
or language of German literature; and
the low German, which is divided into
Frisian, Dutch and Flemish. Our own
English is the nearest related to this
languages are only one branch of a
large racial family, known as the
Aryan or lndo-European. This reaches
from India to Ireland-and connects
Patrick with the Parsee. Sanskirt,
Persian. Greek, Latin. Celtic and
Teutonic are thus all related tongues.

First Honeymoon Ends

Mrs. Doll got into the public prints
on December 12, 1915, when after
an interview with her husband, An
drew Taylor, at the end of their
honeymoon, she shot herself near the
heart at her home in Detroit The
shooting revealed the fact that the
couple had been secretly married IN

hovered between life and death for
some time in Stamford Hospital.
When she recovered she brought suit

A Grave National Wrong
IL is a grave national wrong
against this country that we haven't
already announced and have law
enacted that what is being done now
is to be continued and extended as a
permanet policy; that all our young
men are to be trained in time of
peace, so that never again, after
eight months of war, will we have to
see our armies assembling within the
best camps with one out of three
men with a rifle, and in the other
camps, all three with broomsticks.
war was declared against France
on August l, 1914. Against Belgium
war was declared by Germany after
the event-on the fourth or fifth of
August In the case of France, after
the declaration of war France had
to put her whole strength in the field
at once. The battle of the Marne
would have saved France-it would
have saved us had it begun sooner
than five weeks after the declaration
of war.

TO TRAIN GREAT
ARMY FOR WAR
ALONE IS CRIME
Colonel Roosevelt Urges Sol
dierS to Demand Uni
VerSal Service

Chicago, Sept. 81. - Theodore
Roosevelt delivered a stirring ad-
lress at Camp Grant, at Rockford,
Yesterday and another in this city
asst night when he spoke to an enor-
nous crowd at the stockyards pa
3fllion.
Preparedness and pacifists claimed
zequal shares of the colonels atten-
3 ion in his address to 10000 men of
] he Eighty-siXth Division of the Ma
zional Army, ut Rockford. Included
n his speech was the plea that his
hearers, when they have finished the
zask they are about to begin in Eu-
=-ope. become apostles of universal
military service.
During his stay of less than two
hours the colonel was whirled in a
notorcar through nearly ten miles of
ztantonment streets, viewed one of
! he barracks, inspected several
amusement places built for the re-
|truits. and delivered a fervid half
hour speech.
"I congratulate you upon being on
3 he American team and not on the
fidelines," Colonel Roosevelt said:
The tom-fool who asks why the
United States is at war is capable of
|lsking why a man has been knocked
|iown after he has slapped the other
mans wife.
Proud of Men
Now you have done wonderfully
am awfully proud of you-all of
You who have been doing the work
here. But look at the facts.
We are in the eighth month of

hat can be brought to bear in this
Eamp about one-third of the men
who have come here are fully equip
ped. You have got about 5000 rifles,
hbout one in three for the men who
nave assembled, and, as 1 understand

life. You are still ahead of some of

A Visit to a French
Submarine
BY Gertrude Lynch
Special Correspondent of
The Vigilantes.

Paris, Sept. 5.-In a retired part
of the busy harbor of Calais. | Wis
tied French submarine which was
waiting there for orders. Shut into
that iron boX-with only the open
disc of the well and a round of blue
above to show our connection with
the world turned. to the young
lieutenant who was showing me
about, and asked the question that
sprang into my mind.
What is the first thing you do
when a submarine is struck?" I
wanted to know.
Very quietly he answered me.
There is nothing to do-if it is
struck in a vital spot. 1t is all over"
The work of the French subma-
rines is, generally speaking. defen-
sive rather than offensive. Their
work is an important part of this
great patrol and police work of the
Channel, the vigilance which makes
possible passage for the troops and
supplies of the Allies. They have
the advantage of being near a friend
~ coast where they can get help if
1t is needed.
The French submarines are named
after the Revolutionary months.
Pluvios, Germinal, Florial, etc. Thev
differ from our submarines in some
details, l understand. To investigate
l clambered down the companion
way and reached a slippery deck
where there were two tanks, ready
to be filled with water when the
boat plunges. While it is possible for
the boat to sink with a fiat deck II
usually goes down at a slight angle
five degrees. This one carried two
torpedoes at each side, two behind,
one in front. Fore 1 found a port
folio kitchen which looked like a
big fatiron, with elongated edges
rising to a height of two and a half
or three feet. These fold over when
the kitchen is not in use, and If the
submarine plunges while food is be-
ing prepared the water puts the fires
out automatically.

Now, AFTER a weeks confinement n

ture. out again and to attack hiR prob
lems. They were personal problems
now, much more intimate than before,
for he was building not only the bridge
but weaving In its web Of steel his own
future happiness.
OF course he had been able TO get
out on the rough porch Of his galvan-
lied iron shack where he had the
bridge In full view, and the day before
he had even walked unsteadily down to
the river bank, where he had been
equally surprised and delighted at the
progress that had been made. Abbott
was driver after his own heart. Real
ly things seemed to have gone on Just
as well without him as IL he had been
on the job. He had not been lonely in
his illness, for all Of the chief men con-
nected with the construction had done
their best to beguile the tedium Of his
hours by visiting him whenever they
could spare the time.
Abbott had been especially kind in
his somewhat rough-and-ready way.
The big construction superintendent
was fond Of Meade, although he un-
dervalued him. He regarded him more
as theoretical than practical man
and the inevitable antagonism between
the theorist and the practical man,
when they are not combined in one per-
sonality, was latent in Abbott's heart.
Nightly, he brought to Meade details
Of the progress Of the work. That eve
