U.BOAT Chief KILLS
FIANCEE And father
Fired Fatal Shot Into Bark Before
Wrecking with Torpedo.

New York, Aug. 26-How a cap
tain Of German U-boat unwittingly
killed his Norwegian sweetheart, her
father and brother, who were on a
ship he torpedoed, is a story told by
survivors of another sinking, that Of
the American bark Artensus.
Capt. Wimborn, of the Artensus,
knew the U-boat commander before
the war and on his last trip, when
he was torpedoed. he was taken be-
fore the chief OF the submarine. They
recognized each other and when Capt.
Wimborn asked his friend what had
become of the girl he was engaged
to the German burst into tears.
The U-boat commander took him
to his cabin. showed him a half hun
dred photographs of the girl and
then told him the story. A short
time previous it had been necessary
for him to fire a shell at a small
schooner before ripping it to pieces
with a torpedo. The schooner hap
pened to be that of the girls father.
with her father, brother and herself
on board. A splinter from the shell
killed the girl; her father was also
slain by the shot and when her
brother, who was taken to the sub
marine, recognized his sisters lover
he reproached him and then. on at
tacking him, was knocked into the
sea by a German sailor and did not
reappear.

JEAN BEDINI brings
clever SHOW HERE
"Puss-Puss Company" Opens Weeks
Engagement at the Gayety.

Jean Bedini. famed as a juggler and
we'll known to the threatrical world
as THE Turnip Man." opened weeks
engagement yesterday at the Gayety
Theater with his "Puss-Puss Com
pany." Although Bedini claims to be
striving to save in artistic simplicity
instead of the extravaganc which
,characterizes all Broadway musical
shows. he has gone the limit of bur-
lesque, and presents a company of
forty artists equal to those of any
musical comedy now on the road.
Backed by a grille whirl of musical
merriment. Bobby Clark and Paul Nc
Cullough. in the leading comedy roles.
bring forth a riot of laughter on each
appearance. The two-act comedy in
five scenes, entitled Somewhere Here"
afford Clark and Mccullough and the
other principals plenty of opportunities
to show their ability.
Bedinfs show is a new one this sea-
son and stands far above other offer
ings in burlesque with its all-round
comedy and entertainment. The
chorus. which is made up of charming.
shapely girls. is the best that has been
seen at the Gayety Theater this sea-
son. Their nimbleness and willingness
to put over the various dancing acts
with plenty of pep" and speed makes
them big favorite with the audience.
What Bedini has left out of his pro-
duction in extravaganza he has made
up with fun and musical punches.
Clark and Mccullough are real come
dians. with a great line of new stuff.
while their new parodies brought sew
eral encores.
These stars are supported by Bob
Harmon and George Brooks in great
style. Harmon and Brooks offer quite
little effort to the comedy of the en-
tertainment. while each show dancing
steps above the ordinary.
Ella Golden and Marie Sabbott. in
the soubrette parts, proved to be a
pair of the best dancers and singers
that burlesque can boast of, while
Helen Lorayne contributes a few se-
lections to the musical numbers which
make big hit. THE Devil and His
Temptations" put over by Miss Lor-
ayne, is one of the best acts of it's
kind that has ever been seen here.
The catchy music and punchy COM
edy keeps up the merriment OF the
three hours entertainment and marks
it one of the best productions on the
Eastern burlesque wheel today.

LAUDS WILSON'S
rule ON DRAFT
DR.. Martin Also Believes
Married Men Should
Be Exempt.

Enthusiastic over President Wilson'S
decision to exempt married men from
the draft. Rev. DR.. d. H. Martin.

night glowingly commended the Chief
Executives wise decision. which he
declared. was aetuated through his
great heart"
Rev. DR.. Martin, who is chairman OF
Exemption Division No. j, declared
that 1T had been trying ordeal to
accept for service heads of families.
His remarks, in part. follow:
President Wilson's draft rule per-
taining to married men will be re-
ceived by the nation with approval
and appreciation. Exemption boards
throughout the country will be glad
that the President has expressed him.

Ordeal for Married Men.
Members of exemption boards
throughout the nation are mer~with
large hearts and sympathies. The
great majority of them are men with
families. and II has been a trying
ordeal for them to accept for service
the heads of families. though the
women were able TO take care OF
themselves and their children In case
they were mothers.
''The country will approve with deep
gratitude everything the President
may do to hold the home together,
consistent with the country's interest
President Wilson has shown himself
In this matter, as in others, to be a
man with a great heart and his
solicitude for the welfare OF the
American home will be one more tie
that will bind him close to the hearts
Of the American people.
There is unanimity Of opinion in our
land that the first draft, at least.
should fall so far as possible on single
men. The home is the nations sacred
institution. and so far as possible we
must hold 1t together. The safety OF
the nation lies in the security of the
home. No nation can be great that
does not emphasize the home idea. We
should let the war interfere with thf
home life of our people only so far as
necessary. but on the other hand the
home should ever stand ready to make
any sacrifice however great for the
welfare of the nation"
