Marlon Orator Detained. Samuel Strickler of Marlon, who was to have delivered the principal address, missed railroad connections and failed to arrive. His place was taken by Judge D. W. Comstock, Republican congressional nominee, who delivered one of the best addresses heard In Cambridge City during the campaign. Judge Comstock discussed the Issues Involved in the campaign from a practical standpoint emphasizing the fact that the tariff question was the dominating issue and declaring that unless a protective tariff was provided by a Republican congress before the close of the European war this country would be confronted with a serious situation.

time G. O. P. majority would be rolled up in the Sixth district Walter Bossert, the district chairman, followed Judge Comstock with one of his rapid-fire addresses. He spoke principally in the interests , of the state ticket and for the congressional and county office candidates, naming each one and giving the record of each of these men who comprise one of the best county tickets ever placed in the field by the Republicans. James K. Mason, candidate for joint representative from Wayne and Fayette counties, spoke briefly, introducing a quartet from Bentonville who sang several campaign " songs which made a big hit with the crowd. Another feature of the program was the famous "Spirit of 76" impersonated by three Richmond young men. When this trio stepped upon the stage they were cheered to the echo.

LONDON, Nov. 3. The Countess Marklevlcz's decorations to her sister's (Miss Eva Gore-Booth's) Gaelic drama, "The Death of Fionavar" are arousing much attention and have earned great praise among connoisseurs for this leader In the recent Irish up-rising. They were executed, of course, before the Sinn Fein outbreak and It will be at least two years, under ther the English prison regulations, before the Countess, assuming that she remains in penal servitude, will be able to again exercise her artistic talents.

VETERANS LAUD COMSTOCK FOR BRAVE ACTION

John Markley, prominent member of Sol Meredith post, G. A. R., who has been, in connection -with other post members, actively interested in the candidacy of Judge D. -W. Comstock, Republican congressional nominee, today made public a statement of the late Colonel George W. Jackson, commanding the Ninth Indiana Cavalry, setting forth bow his life had been saved on " the field of battle through the gallantry of Judge Comstock, who was a member of the same regiment. Col. Jackson's statement follows: Statement Is Appended "On the night of December 17, 1864, while in pursuit of Hood's Army after the battle at Nashville, the Ninth Indiana Cavalry, commanded by Col George W. Jackson, was ambushed by the Confederates at the Columbia Pike below Franklin, Tenn. The regiment fell back in disorder and was pursued by the enemy for a short distance. "In the blinding flash from the first discharge of musketry, the Colonel's horse reared and, plunging into a ditch by the roadside, fell upon him, seriously injuring him and rendering him temporarily unconscious. D. W. Comstock, acting as adjutant of the regiment, under withering fire, with the aid of another soldier whose name is unknown, placed the Colonel upon a horse and conducted him to safety despite the protest of the colonel who urged them to abandon him and seek safety." Has Honorable Career This affidavit was the basis of a resolution introduced in congress to award Judge Comstock the Congressional Medal of Honor, a decoration more difficult to win than the English Victorian Cross. The medal was not awarded because of a technicality, Judge Comstock not having been in the service at the time the application was made, and no regimental record of his action having been entered at the time he saved his colonel's life. "Since that act of gallantry Judge Comstock has had an honorable career in civil life," said Mr. Markley. "On his enlistment in the army he declined an officer's commission in favor of a friend and was mustered in as a private. That Judge Comstock will acquit himself with credit as representative of the Sixth district is not questioned and the voters will and should give him a large majority." FIVE LIBERTY GIRLS ESCAPE WHEN CAR SKIDS ON GRAVEL LIBERTY, Ind., Nov. 4.

ate plans, it was whispered that the speech; will be a "peppery one." It was even predicted in authoritative quarters that Mr. Wilson will touch upon the latest snag in the relations between- this country and Germany, the sinking of the Marina. The president is expected to review all the issues of the campaign and give straight-from-the-shoulder answers to the series of Republican charges.-

BECK INTERCEPTS STREAM OF DIMES TO FAKE COMPANY Flocks of dimes have been flying to and fro at the post office. As the result of the gullibility of scores of Richmond women who accepted in simple trustfulness the proposition of the National Mail Order Brokerage Exchange at Minneapolis, Postmaster Beck is garnering dimes from every quarter and is trying to save the women their money. The bait was a promise of a $4.50 silk skirt to every woman who sent to the brokerage company one dime and wrote letters to five of her friends persuading them to do likewise and profit by. their., labors $4.40 toward the fancy wearing apparel. To date no skirts h ed as passing through Rinh mnTiH In raci Mr. uecx. said today, the post of-! nee inspectors "rounded up" the brokerage company, but not in time to capture the fleeing schemer with bushels of dimes as the rpsnit of hia enterprise. Mr. Beck wishes to suggest, he said, that the women of Richmond cease sending dimes to the brokera ee mm. pany, and letters to their five friends. MOVES TRACK TOOLS TO HENRY COUNTY T. H., I. & E.

A knowledge of motor car principles leads the prospective buyer to this car as surely and inevitably as the needle seeks the pole. There is no greater fallacy than the oft expressed one that "any standard motor car is a safe buy." When a member of a man's family becomes ill he doesn't turn to the classified directory in the telephone book and send for "any regular doctor." Indeed not! He sends for that doctor about whom he has knowledge. And knowledge of motor cars is the guiding principle by which you should be actuated in making a purchase. It is the principle that the Buick Motor Company is extremely-anxious for you to accept in reaching your decision. A knowledge of motor car principles will lead you to the conviction that the Buick Valve-in-Head motor is the most powerful and efficient motor made -the

WAR REVIEW FOB THE DAY

"AH the allies are cooperating in an effort to sve Roumania. It is the mightiest international stroke of arms that has been delivered against the German allies Bince the war began. Of all the attacks against the German allies in ' the various theaters of war it is only on the Italian front that advantages of a decisive nature are being gained, however. The new drive against the Austro-Hungarian city of Trieste continues to make progress around Mt. Faitl, the second line positions of the Austro-Hungar-ians have been smashed. In the battles since Wednesday the Italians have captured about 10,000 prisoners and hundreds of machine guns and have inflicted enormous loss of life on the Austro-Hungarians. Although the French report made no mention of infantry action the German war oiflce states that assaults were delivered last night against German positions on both the Somme and Verdun fronts. ' On the eastern front in the Roumanian theater and in Macedonia the allies are hammering away at the German allies. These movements are designed to lighten the pressure against the Rus-so-Roumanian armies defending Roumania and. to prevent the German allies from sending re-inforcements into that field. The allies are fighting for the life of a kingdom. WAS FIRST AND LAST ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 4. When the American National bank was organized ft -

most powerful because it conserves and uses a higher percentage of the heat energy contained in gasoline than any other motor, and the most efficient because it is so constructed that each fresh charge of gasoline vapor taken into each cylinder is not diluted through mixture with portions of the dead gases remaining from the last previous explosion, as is the case with other types of motors. The power and efficiency, because of these reasons, is approximately one-fifth more than in other types of motors of the same cylinder dimensions. " You will regret it if you allow yourself to be stampeded into buying a motor car. Make sure that you understand the fundamentals. You can very easily acquire an understanding of those underlying mechanical principles which it is necessary to have in order to buy a motor car intelligently. We will be very glad indeed to help you acquire this knowledge at any time.
