"The Wedge of Gold", a hotel owned by W. J. MCGROGAN at Oakdale, was destroyed by fire nearly Sunday morning with an estimated loss of $43,000, including furnishings. It was a 43-room structure. The home of W. E. WEAVER and armory building, which adjoined the hotel, were slightly damaged. MCGROGAN was awakened when a stone thrown by Dr. C. N. VAN SICKLE landed in his bed. MCGROGAN hastily dressed and carried his sick wife from the second floor was already afire. There were no guests in the hotel. Lack of water pressure handicapped the fire department. Although opposed to the building since it was erected several years ago, ministers of the town turned out and joined with the firemen in an effort to save the structure. MCGROGAN built the hotel at a cost of $35,000, but was unable to secure a license because of the opposition of the church people and the dry party. The hotel was known as "MCGROGAN's Wedge of Gold" because it was believed that if he secured a license he would make a great deal of money. Later Sunday morning the west wall of the building fell into State street. A large crowd was in the street but no one was injured.

Langeloth Endowed By Its Rich Founder Jacob LANGELOTH, once a penniless immigrant, who amassed a fortune of $30,000,000 in eighteen years, left the bulk of his vast holdings for the benefit of humanity by his will, which was filed last Saturday for probate. He was a dreamer, an inventor, a financier, and held strong convictions on religious matters. He left nothing to churches and directed that no clergyman be allowed to officiate at his funeral. Mr. LANGELOTH was chairman of the board of directors of the American Metal company. The declaration of war by Germany is said to have been the direct cause of the death of Mr. LANGELOTH, August 14. He had been deeply interested in the fortunes of his fatherland and had provided that various institutions in German should receive bequests. With his residuary estate Mr. LANGELOTH founded a great home for the benefit of "middle class persons of education and refinement." He endowed the future city of Langeloth, Pa., with $150,000 and remembered numerous charities and employees with substantial bequests.
Sorry, I omitted the date and newspaper from the original post. Percy C. BEATTY and Louis P. LAVIE Assist Many Americans in Switzerland The safe return of hundreds of Americans to their home country from Europe, where they were made refugees by the sudden breaking out of the world's greatest war, was due in no small measure to two Pittsburghers---Percy D. BEATTY and Louis P. LAVIE of the Exchange National Bank. Mr. BEATTY and Mr. LAVIE have just returned from the war zone, but not before they made certain of the safety and comfort of others. Leaving here on July 10 for a pleasure trip through Europe, they arrived in Southampton just in time to witness the British naval review. Later they made their way by slow travel to Strassberg, where they were on July 31 when war was declared. They met a crowed of excited women next day in the lobby of their hotel, who were making ready to flee the city. The women asked the two Pittsburghers to chaperon their party to Lucerne. The ride from Strassberg to Lucerne was marked by no little excitement. They got started at 7 o'clock in the morning. Soldiers were being mobilized everywhere. They were compelled three times to give up their trains to the soldiers. The third train was the last they could get. They managed to get to St. Ludwig, 100 miles from Strassberg, when the train crew announced they could go no farther. Mr. BEATTY hired a lime wagon and finally got into Lucerne. In Lucerne hundreds of American refugees were found. The English speaking people could get no information concerning the war, as all the papers were printed in foreign languages. Mr. BEATTY and Mr. LAVIE, with several others, formed a committee of registration and help for the purpose of finding out what Americans were in that part of the country. They had a card index system by which they could tell the names, ages, addresses and financial status of each and every American in Lucerne. It was found 3,000 persons were there from all parts of the United States. When anyone left the place they notified the committee. Satisfying themselves all wee safe and comfortable in Lucerne, Mr. BEATTY and Mr. LAVIE moved on to Interlaken, where 900 Americans were reported stranded. The same system was established in Interlaken and all refugees taken care of. At several other cities and towns the same method was utilized, until nearly all of those who desired to get back to America were started on their way. Messrs. BEATTY and LAVIE spent twelve days in the work at Interlaken. On August 15th they sailed on board the San Giovanni, an Italian liner, and spent seventeen nights on the boat before they reached America.

Auto Races at Brunot's Island The race track at Brunot's Island, Pittsburgh, will be the scene of the biggest automobile races ever held within the confines of the State of Pennsylvania, Saturday afternoon, September 5th, when Teddy TETZLAFF, speed king and holder of the world's record for a mile in 25 one-fifth seconds with his giant 300 horse power "Blitzen Benz", the largest and most powerful car in the world, "Coal Oil" Billy CARSON of the MAXWELL team, so named because he is one of the only pilots in the world who has discarded the use of gasoline for kerosene, the other being his team mate TETZLAFF, Wilber DEALENE, the Canadian champion; Captain KENNEDY, the soldier pilot; Jimmy CALLAHAN, driver of the fleet KEETON. Rudy GETZ, the California phenom, and other daring pilots of high powered cars will participate. There will be eight big races on the afternoon card and four thrilling periods of that fascinating and dangerous game of auto polo. Auto polo will be dished up by eight cleve! r drivers and mallet men manning four fleet racing cars stripped and built for the especial purpose. Of all the new games recently invented requiring skill and daring, auto polo easily carries off the prize. None except the most hardy and tough players can indulge in this roughhouse game and the cars are wrecked every time they are put into the play. One notable driver who was to have participated in the Brunot Island races, who will be missed, is the late Spencer WISHART, who was expected to drive here. This unfortunate pilot lost his life last Saturday in the big Elgin road race where all the other star drivers who will participate at this meet were competing. DEALENE, the French-Canadian, also met with a serious mishap, but will be able to be in the races here as his car can be easily repaired, and he was miraculously saved from death by the merest luck. WISHART, who met with a similar accident, was not so fortunate. There will also be a special race for the championship of Pennsylvania in which only local state drivers can participate. The following list of famous racing cars are now owned in Pittsburgh and environs and may be entered, as their drivers are all anxious to match their speedy mounts against each other to settle the dispute. The KLINE Kar, nicknamed the "Jimmy Junior," and which made such a fine showing against Bob BURMAN and the other star driver who raced here two years ago; the WHITE racer which finished well inside the money in the big Indianapolis race; the famous Ohio 999, formerly driven by "Wild" Bob BURMAN and with which he won over one hundred races last year; the giant Simplex; the Mercer "Yellow Streak," the Pittsburgh Special and other notable racing cars. This race alone will be one of the sensations and on account of the great number of entries will have to be run in heats. The huge 300 horsepower "Blitzen Benz" will be the car which the publi! c will be most interested in. This giant on steel is by far the fastest and most powerful car in the world and will be sent against the record. Special street car service will run to the foot of Doore street where the public will be ferried across the narrow channel, and the steamer Sunshine and other large excursions boats will leave every fifteen minutes from the foot of Wood street. The races will start promptly at 2:30 p.m.

This line will supply electricity for the Henderson Coal company's mine at MCPHERSONS Mills and also for the Montour mine at Hills. A passenger schedule for the new road, which extends from North Star, where it connects with the old Montour spur, to Mifflin Junction, where it connects with the Union railroad, has not been announced, but on inquiry it was learned that three trains a day will be run.
