QUAKER TEAM WITHOUT HEAD Ardra Thistlethwaite, Foot- . ball Leader, Drops College Career to Take Position as Husband. Although able to -withstand the attacks and line plunges of any football warrior In the state, Ardra Thistlethwaite, captain and star linesman -of the Earlham football team, haa succumbed to the bewitching influence of woman and has announced that he will soon take unto himself a wife. In other words, Dan Cupid has robbed the Earlham football team of their captain. Word was received by President Kelly that Thistlethwaite, who was the star of the Earlham line last year and was unanimously elected to fill the position of captain of the team this fall, will not enter school this fall as he had expected to do, owing to the fact that he will be married early this fall. His home is in Sheridan, Ind., and it is understood that his bride-to-be lives in Marion. Got High Honor. Thistlethwaite waB named on the state all-Star team last fall and was by far the strongest linesman on the Quaker team. He is a brother to Glenn Thistlethwaite, former coach of Earlham, who was also one of the best football players that has ever played on the Earlham teams. The absence of the big tackle will be noticed this iall and his place will be hard to fill. Earlham, however will not be lacking this year In new material that is experienced in football. Several star high school players have signed up at the college for next fall and it is anticipated that Coach Whiteside will strong team this season. ' Among the former high school stars that have signed . up and who will play football are Bonner Feller, of Rldgefarm, 111.; Leslie Meeks, of Farmtown, Ind.; Frank Schlatter, of Bloomingdale, Ind.; Ralph Morrich, of Falrmount, Ind.; and Ralph Brunner, of Greenfield, Ind.

Accomplish Marvelous Feat Threatening Whole French Now Able to Strike Hard the Kaiser's Generals. BY HERBERT TEMPLE, European Manager for International . News Service. LONDON, Aug. 22. By reaching the coast of Belgium and occupying Ostend today the German troops have attained a line that reaches for 14 miles from Neufchateau to Ostend, about 20 miles from the French frontier. Their first object has been gained. The (German forces that penetrated Luxemburg, and thence to the department of Meurthe-Et-Moselle will prevent any attack by the allies, on the left .end of the German battle line. The waters of the straits of Dover will prevent any flank attack on the right end of that same line. Drawing a line from Paris to Ostend, .thence to Neufchateua, and thence to Paris, reveals an almost equilatoral triangle with Paris as its southern apex. The line held by the main French forces probably extends from the coast through Lille, Mezieres, and Sedan. It is on that line that they probably will have to meet the attack

BY FRANKLIN P. MERRICK, (International News Servloe Staff Correspondent.) PARIS, Aug. 22. German troop? have taken the offensive in both Alsace and Lorraine, and are pressing heavily upon the frontier. The war office admits that the French troops that invaded Lorraine are retreating, and it is reported today that a vast German army joined by the Austrian troops, that recently passed through Constance, is sweeping through Alsace, and has already neared Cerney, only 6 miles from Muelhausen. That the French army which captured that town has been unable to move forward is indicated in reports from Basel that the Germans had attempted a flank movement to cut the French off from Belfort, and had been I almost successful. I A long range duel between the Ger- . man and Belgian artillery has been go- ; ing on at Namur since noon of Friday.

of Traversing Belgium and Frontier. Protect Wings and Against Allies Outwitted by

of the combined armies of the Mouse and the Moselle. These two armies are believed to form the center of the German forces. Horse, foot and guns, they have cross ed the Meuse, and struck for the French frontier. Their impact on the French line will be terrific. Will the French be able to stand It? None can tell. Whatever the outcome, British military experts will admit that the Germans have accomplished a marvelous feat by traversing the kingdom of Belgium, from east to west, a distance of about 140 miles, despite the determined opposition of the Belgian army. They say that the time gained by the Belgian opposition gave the allies the time they needed to perfect their defense. ; A Copenhagen dispatch says that Germany has called the Landsturm the last reservists, to the colors. Thia will add six hundred thousand men to the army, a total of about six million. This action was taken in order that all forces previously mobilized may be devoted to crushing the allies, and standing off the Russian attack in the Bast. E meet the attack of the Germans that are crossing the Meuse with the apparent intention of striking at Lille. The French war office believes that no attempt will be made to storm the forts at Namur but that the Germans will bombard it and attempt to invest it with so strong a force that its garrison will be unable to interfere with the march toward the French frontier. The following statement was issued at the war office today: "Large guns are pouring a heavy fire on the Namur forts along the Meuse. The Belgian artillery is replying. The defense there will be ably directed and there is no danger of Namur's capture. "Everything is going well on the Belgian front. The enemy continues to press westward across the Meuse, over which a number of bridges have been thrown. The Belgian defense has been of vast help to the French army which is favorably located." The forts at Namur are nine in number. These were constructed under the direction of Gen. Brailmont, the famous Belgian strategist, and form a strong link in the defenses along the Meuse. The city of Namur Itself is at the junction of the rivers Meuse and Sambre. MAYOR FINES TWO FROM HOME TOWN Two "souses" were arraigned before Mayor Robbins in city court this morning, each charged with public Intoxication. "Thomas McNully, where do you live?" asked Prosecutor Reller with a twinkle in his eye. "I live in Abington," replied McNully without changing expression. His Honor looked surprised. "Where do you live, William Anderson?" then inquired the prosecutor. "I live in Abington also," answered Anderson without smiling. "Dollar and costs for each of you," gasped the mayor and fled. Mayor Robbins, a native of Abington, swears the two men do not reside there and openly asserts that Prose cutor Keller framed up . the whole affair. LIEGE COMMANDER TAKEN PRISONER BY LEASED WIRE.

HOLD N01SPARTY Owner of House Asks Police to Stop Noise Intended for Newlyweds. The home on South Fourth street fitted out by Prof. Joseph M. Richter, principal of St. Andrew's parochial school, for bis bride, has been under siege by boisterous friends of the newlyweds for two or three nights, who apparently have been expecting Mr. and Mrs. Richter to return from their honeymoon trip at any time. Today William H. ; Peterson, South Second street, appeared at " police headquarters and said he had reached the limit of his patience with the "mob" which had been visiting the Richter home nightly. He wanted to know if a taxpayer was not entitled to police protection and said If such was the case he wanted the police to prevent the "mob" from visiting a house on South Fourth street, near the Richter residence, which is owned by him and committing acts of vandalism, "If they have another row down there tonight," concluded Peterson, "and the police, don't interfere, I will with a shotgun." Peterson said' the windows of his house had been broken out and his garden trampled upon, practically ruining it. He said that one of the crowd had been a policeman. Prof, and Mrs. Richter, being out of the city have missed all the excitement. : ENLARGES OUTLINE OF BIBLE CLASSES FOR SENIOR BOYS Boys' Director Somerville Plans Increased Activity in Department of T' With Improved Quarters. Bible study will be pursued by the boys connected with the boy's depart ment of the T. M. C. A. more this winter than in any previous year. Plans are now being made by Boys' Director Somerville for the work in his department. It is his intention to Interest every body in the city in Bible study this winter. The increased accommodations which are being made for the boys' department enables the new director to handle the situation here much better than it has been done before when it was handicapped by lack of sufficient space. Richmond, within the past five years, has been rated among the first three cities in the country having the largest per cent of boys in the city interested in Bible work. This was accomplished in spite of the handicaps of the department and now since many of these hindrances have been removed, it is hoped that practically every body in the city can be brought under the influence of the Y. M. C. A Bible work. To Interest Seniors. Special attention will be given to the older boys by Director Somerville. Special features will be introduced in the department to interest the older boys, before they become senior members of the association. Bible class for this age of boys, who have been necessarily neglected owing to the cramped condition of the department, will be arranged. The Bible classes will not begin until the first week in October. By starting the classes this late, ample time will be given for the completion of all the work connected with the improvement of the department quarters as well as giving the boys a chance to get a good start in their school work, since school starts the first week in September.

The Uhlans are cutting telegraph and telephone wires in all directions. The Burgomasters of the rural communities are disarming the civil guard in order to prevent the enemy from firing upon citizens.

WISHART DEAD

IN ELGIN RACE BY LBA8ED WIRE. ELGIN, Aug. 22. The first serious accident of the Elgin races came In the thirteenth lap today. Within a few feet of the spot where Dave Buck and his mechanician, Jacobson, were killed three years ago, Spencer Wishart, driving a Mercer, and leading In the race, was so seriously injured that he died within a very short time. Wishart's mechanician, John C. Genter, of Jersey City, was also Injured. A number of spectators were struck by the flying car when it left the track and some of them were quite badly hurt. The injured spectators were taken to St. Joseph hospital. The accident came on the long back stretch of the "course. Wishart's Mercer side-swiped the Marmon driven by L. Heinemann of Chicago. The rear wheel of Wishart's car swerved, striking the Marmon which was thrown from the track, and put out of the race. Neither Heinemann nor Walter Davis, of Chicago, his mechanician was seriously hurt. Four spectators were injured. ' Wishart's car went through the fence with the speed of a bullet, and scattered spectators right and left, the car turning turtle. Both Wishart and Genter were pinioned beneath the car. . When the injured men had been pulled from beneath the car Wishart was unconscious. A hasty examination by the doctors disclosed the fact that his right leg had been broken and that he had Internal Injuries. The accident to Wishart resulted In Bu Burman taking the lead with Tom Alley in the Duezenberg In second place, and Pullen in a Mercer, third. Ralph DePalma was fourth, and Grant in a sunbeam and Oldfield in the Stutz were fifth and sixth respectively. At the temporary hospital, announcement was made that Wishart was "still alive." Reports said that ehances for his recovery were considered very slight GERMAN REPLY WASHINGTON, Aug. 22. The decision of Germany on the issue of war or peace with Japan, which must be made by 10 o'clock tonight, Washington time, will not be known at the Japanese embassy here until some time tomorrow or possibly Monday. The embassy was advised today that upon the failure of Germany to return a favorable answer to the Japanese Charge D'Affaires in Berlin, by 4 o'clock Sunday morning, there, which corresponds to noon in Tokio, the charge at once will demand his passports, and will seek to leave Germany. He will telegraph his government of the fact of Germany's failure to meet the demands of Japan. This message then probably will be repeated to tne principal Japanese embassies abroad by the foreign office at Tokio. News of the bombardment of Esing Tau by the Japanese has been reported, but the full confirmation was lacking, and all news must run the Japanese embargo on news. It was recalled at the embassy today that the first word given Europe of the defeat of the Russian navy by the Japanese in the sea of Japan, was a message to the London Telegraph stating that Champagne was being used in the war and some similar way the correspondents may outwit the censors in the case of Tsing Tau. CRISIS MAY THROW ITALY INTO STRIFE Failure of Austria to Explain Munition Landing May Cause War. BY LEASED WIRE. ROME, Aug. 22. Events are rapidly moving forward to a crisis, and none would be surprised to see Italy drawn into actual hostilities at any moment. In fact, reports are current that general mobilization will be proclaimed in a few days. Marquis San Gulliano, the Italian foreign minister, has received no reply from Vienna to his demand for an explanation of the landing of Austrian war munitions at San Giovanni De Medua, the Albanian coast town. The demand was made because of reports that Austria had secretly been arming the Albanians for war upon Servia. It was only recently that danger of war between Italy and Austria was averted by the latter's promise to recompense the Puglia wireless company for damages done to its plant by a bombardment of Antivari.

CO-OPERATION GIVES HEALTH

TO ANY T Dr. Geisel Tells How New Orleans Stamped Out Yellow Fever and Becama Healthy City. Dr. Carolyn Geisel, whose morning health lectures have attracted so mack attention at the Chautauqua and throughont the city concluded her week's engagement this afternoon with an address on "Americanitis." In speaking on "Community Hygiene," thia morning she said the one secret of a healthy town is summed up in the single word "Co-operation. She told how New Orleans, after suffering for years from yellow fever and having such a high death rate that people were afraid to move into It, made up Its mind to become as healthy a city as any in the country. A doctor," she said, "organised the whole city to fight disease. They killed out all the , mosquitoes and today New Orleans la as healthy a town as yon will find." As further Illustrating what can be done when all the people in a community work together toward this aim, she narrated the experiences of Tacoma, Washington. "In 1904," she said, "of every thousand deaths in Tacoma, 226 were deaths of babies due to cholera infantum. In 1912, of every thousand deaths, only four resulted from that scourge which destroys more bar -bles than any other one disease. "How did this splendid city get snob wonderful results? By getting all the women organized and the business men organized and the churches or ganived and the children organized into civic leagues. .These leagues drove the fly out of town, got the water purified, got garbage cleaned up, stop ped spitting on the streets, got the dairies under rigid surveillance and got the stores and every dealer in foods spotlessly clean. This is what was ' done in Tacoma and you, if you will only work together, can accomplish as much in Richmond." ENJOY TENTS LIFE Children Find Especial Pleasure in Readings by Miss Ruth large. Chautauqua seasons Is a great Ume for the children. It is estimated that -there are two or three hundred of them on the grounds this year. The management has taken great pains to give them a good time. Hiss Large, the Chautauqua reader, gathers fifty to a hundred boys and girls around her morning and afternoon and leads them in folk dances and games and' tells them stories. The children seem to be especially fond of the musical programs. Four front rows were packed with them at Brahms' classical concert last night and no other portion of the audience seemed to enjoy the music as much. The older boys find the Chautauqua grounds very convenient to Morton lake and Hawkins' pond. During any afternoon these days, one can find a large crowd of them in swimming. While returning from one of these expeditions, one young American yelled out: "Hey, fellers, dont yon wish this here Chautauqua kept coin all year long?" JAPAN ASKS U. S. TO ACT FOR MIKADO BULLETIN.
