Asks Congressmen to Curb Talk in Order to Save Print Paper WASHINGTON, D. C, Aug. 2S Members of the house were urged today by Representative Barnhart of Indiana, chairman of the joint congressional committee on printing, to curtail their extensions of remarks in the record in view of a shortage of paper, which might make it necessary for the president to commandeer stocks to get out government publications. The committee had met earlier in the day authorized the warning. When Representative Walsh of Massachusetts called attention to the fact that a member recently included some old speeches in an extension of the remarks, Mr. Barnhart said the printing in that case cost about $400. A resident of Venezula has applied for a patent in that country upon a new dry .process for recovering tanning extracts from the fruit of the divi-divi plant

German Soldiers Show Contempt for Own Officers in Prison WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE, Aug. 28. German soldiers have begun to exhibit the greatest contempt for their own officers and are carrying their feelings right into the prisoners' cages. In a number of cages, into which thousands are pouring, the German soldiers have gone out of their way to be extremely insolent to their officers, jeering at them and loudly proclaiming their views in no uncertain manner. Going to such lengths would undoubtedly result in court martial and firing squads in Germany, and It is gathered from the prisoners that they go as far as they dare even on their side of the line. All the prisoners, men and officers, express their longing for peace by agreement.

CREW OF U-BOAT MURDERS MEN ON TORPEDOED SKIP Barbaric Treatment of Survivors of French Steamer Lydiana is Made Public. '.By Associated Press) LONDON, Aug. 28. Details of the sinking of the French steamer, Lydiana. off the north coast of Spain on July 16, show that the crew of the German submarine deliberately murdered most of the thirty-eight persons lost. There were only eight survivors out of the forty-six of the crew and passengers on board. The U-boat torpedoed the vessel without warning, killing several of the crew. While a boat was being lowered froia the Lydiana, a second torpedo struck the vessel. The boat was torn from its davits, but she kept her keel. Seeing this the submarine rammed her and cut her In two. The enemy then turned and rammed a second boat which had been launched successfully. A young woman of twenty-three, one of the passengers, was thrown high in the air by the impact and killed. The captain of the Lydiana was killed in the same crash. The Geramns then endeavored to sink a raft carrying the remaining survivors. At first their efforts were without success. When one of the ship's offices left the raft to swim back to the sinking Lydiana. the submarine turned and the officer was killed by his propellers. After finally disposing of the Lydiana by shell fire the U-boat made a t-ixth and successful attempt to ram the raft, amid laughter from the Uboat's captain and crew. The submarine then turned and disappeared toward the east. The tight survivors were picked up from the sea by patrol boats. MRS.

Two thousand five hundred people filled the Chautauqua auditorium Tuesday evening in spite of the steady down pour of rain, and almost two hundred single admission tickets were sold. The main speaker on the program for Thursday is the interesting Chief Caupolican -orn the South American Indians, while the new musical troop, the Crawford Adams Company will present two concerts, and the institute speakers will be Superintendent Williams at 10:00, Mr. Bntley at 11:00 and Charles C. Ellis at 2:00. In Dr. Ellis's talk Wednesday morning, he emphasized the point tht concentration is the stepping stone to any success in mental training which a teacher is to bring out 1 na child, while the two fundamental points are understanding and retention. Mr. Ellis urged that the children be taught that concentration can make them read more and learn more, and get better results than the old method of slow, pondering which allowed so much time for the mind to wander. "It makes me feel badly every time I enter a library and see th rows and rows of books which it would tak lifetimes for any one to read, when I realize that I could have become acquainted with twenty-five per cent, more than I have, if only I had been taught how to read rapidly and get the facts." 150 MEXICANS Continued From Page One. of the wounded are reported seriously hurt. The American officer killed was Captain Joseph D. Hungerford, who commanded a troop of negro cavalry. Estimates place the Mexican casualties at 50, of which 15 are said to have been killed. Among the Mexicans killed was Felix Penaloza, mayor of Nogales, Sonora, the Mexican town opposite here. Investigation has developed that the fighting started when a Mexican who had been passed across the line by the Mexican customs guard was halted by an American emigration officer. The American, it is said, drew a pistol, but did not fire. The Mexicans, it was asserted, opened fire at once, and immediately the shooting became general. Denies Troops Fought. A statement issued early todaj' by Captain Absolva, commandant of the Mexican garrison, denied that his troops had participated in the fighting, and declared the Bhooting had been done by customs guards and other Mexican civilians. However, Americans marooned in the Mexican town, stated that the soldiers rushed from their barracks at the sound of the first shot and continued to fire volleys toward the American side until they were driven off when the American troops charged. Army officers today spoke with high praise of the conduct of the residents of Nogales, who by rifle fire from house tops and other points of vantage, laid down a "barrage" to cover the advance of the Americans, when they dashed across the line. A battalion of infantry and two troops of negro cavalry under command of Lieut. Co. F. J. Herman, charged the Mexican malcontents a quarter of a mile across a level plain into the foot 'hills back of Nqgales, Sonorra, and the accurate, sustained fire of the American civilians is believed to have been no small measure of protection to the American troops, particularly in view of the fact that it had reruced the efforts of Mexican snipers to a minimum. It was in this charge that Captain J. W. Hungerford, commander of the cavalry troops, was killed. The commander, Lieut. Col. Herman, was wounded while leading the charge. FIRING HAS CEASED. WASHINGTON.. Aug 28. MajorGeneral William A. Holbrook notified the war department that desultory firing between civilians in Nogales on the Mexican border had ceased after continuing all night. Under an agreement with the Mexican commander all roops on both sides were being withdrawn, but additional Mexican troops were noted approaching Nogales. The Mexican border has been placed under control of General Holbrook, commander of the southern department General March, chief of staff, announced today that General Hol- . brook has given orders as to action to be taken in border emergencies.

German General Hints of Secret Which Will Help Recoup Losses fBy Associated Press! AMSTERDAM, Aug. 28: "The German army and nation now face dark hours. May God protect the fatherland" concludes an article by Lieut. General Baron von Ardenne in the Duaseldorf Nachrichten of Tuesday.
