Just so long will the burdens of taxattna Increase and fall upon tbose who are least able to pay and are atrtvlng lo meet the ever exartlna demand of municipal expensts la upholding this form of government In Its wasteful and extrav- rant methods and operation of public af faire.

DESERTERS THOUGHT SPIES Army Sends Ont Alarm for Two Who Leave 'With Tapers. SCRANTON, Aug. 21. Officers In commandSof the United States artillery camp at Tobyhanna have sent out a ere n era! alarm for the apprehension of Privates George Koenig and J. Horkey, Germans, who have deserted and who are suspected of having been acting as spies. Both had been in the service about one year, and it is known thftt Koenig formerly served in the German army as a non-commissioned officer. Keonig joined the artillery about a year ago, becoming a member of Bat tery E. He was assigned to aid A. L. Smith, who is in charge of the Young Men's Christian Association conducted at the camp. After the disappearance of Koenig from camp it was discovered that money, stamps, papers and a re volver were missing. Later it was discovered that Horkey also was miss ing. Officers from the camp at one hurried to this city in automobiles and with the police scoured the city, but could get no trace of the missing men. While none of the officers would admit that the men were suspected of being German spies, their unusual ac tivity In seeking to apprehend the men Indicated that the latter were no ordinary deserters. Although the officers were not In clined to talk, members of Battery B were not loath to discuss Koenig In particular. They declare that he nas been under suspicion for several weeks and that his actions around the camp have been watched closely by the of ficers.

The Harvard party, under Dr. ' Fred H. Sterns, has recently been working in the vicinity of Nebraska City and the village of Rock Bluffs.

These ruins, in some spots, are said to be in good state of preservation, owing to the fact that they have for cen turies been covered with earth like the ruins of Pompeii. In some instances the charcoal and ashes of fires have been found in what remained of fireplaces, together with, the fragmentary remains of crude cooking utensils. Near Rock Bluffs traces of what appears to have been a populous village have been uncovered, much of the remains being under 15 to 20 feet of earth.
