the basement by a burning
pilot which had been left on.

home of her parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Joseph Swift, of Union,
this county, while Niglio stayed
with Wilmington relatives.
The flames were detected by
Mr.. Brown. next door neighbor,
who turned in the alarm.
The Elkton fire company
found the flames had gained
such Roadway they were oblig-
ed to spend much of their eff
forts in preventing the Brown
home from burning also. The
side of this house was badly
scorched, and caught fire two
or three times.
Niglio's loss is estimated at
$4,000.

Hindenburg Halls
Kaiser; Nazis Mass
At Two Frontiers

BERLIN, Aug. 2S.-The only
message to the German people for
weeks of Paul Won Hindenburg,
who continued as president of Ger
many by the vote of the Social DEM
ocrats at the last election, was made
yesterday at celebration at the
Tannenberg monument.
His message was a declaration of
generation, loyalty, and gratitude
to my Kaiser, king and master"
The Tannenberg meeting was one
of two mass Nazi meetings at the
German frontiers - Tannenberg,
in East Prussia, is close to the
Polish border. The other meeting
was at the Niederwald mountain on
the Rhine, near the Saar basin.
Hitler spoke at both, going by
plane from Tannenberg to the Med
erwald. At Tannenberg, the spot
where Hindenburg defeated the
Russian army during the World
War, the Nazi leaders acclaimed vi
gorously against the Versailles
treaty and the Polish Corridor.
At the Neiderwald, only $50, 900
of the promised million persons
were present. Here Hitler declared
that the Saar, which remains under
the League of Nations jurisdiction
until a nationality plebiscite in
1885, will never be given up by
Germany.
