BOH IS ORDERLY
By OSWALD F. SCHUETTE.
Correspondent of the Chicago News
Berlin. Germany.—In Cologne the
oilier day I found that the tabooed
“adieu"—which is Trench—is being re-
placed by "God punish England." The
newspapers are combating this "fare-
well curse," but It Is terrible to note
how deeply rooted it has become. To
hear Buch words from a white-haired
motherly woman as you bid her good-
by leaves a scar in the memory. And
such hatred must leave a scar on the
nation that cherishes It. But. then,
this war will leave many scars, not
only here but throughout the world.
Into Cologne, while I was there,
came a gray-bearded Bavarian profes-
sor. He was driving a supply wagon.
His son was an officer in another regi-
ment. By the magic power of Influ-
ence he had been able to get himself
enrolled as a private! He threw a
vivid light also on the German hatred
of England.
“My only prayer,” he said, "Is that
God will grant me three weeks in Epg-
land. Then 1 am ready to die."
Docb it sound blasphemous? Well,
you must remember that these people
are all under a terrific strain. It is
cruel to judge them harshly In the
calmness of an American home.
Everywhere I find this same haired.
For the French there is nothing but
sympathy; for the Russians pity. But
for the English—almost every German
I have talked to has given utterance
to this hate.
When you go back to your hotel for
dinner and the first four women who
enter the dining room are in deepest
mourning it all comes home to you
with choking heart throbs. Now they
add a new and bitter complaint It Is
hard to listen if you are an American.
They tell you that the war would be
over if only America did not sell arms
and ammunition to the enemies of
Germany Nor is it easy to answer
with a statement about the strict
right of neutral stateB to sell whatever
and to whomever they please—espe-
cially if the one to whom you speak
Is a mother—or was the mother—of a
son who sleeps with an American bul-
let In his heart.
It is a great tragic drama, this strug-
gle qf a nation for its life. Yet the
outward signs of war are few. There
are soldiers in the streets. But so
there were in peace. Some of them
are wounded, but the number you see
iB so slight that it demonstrates noth
ing.
As far as the people themselves are
concerned there is no sign to show
that the nation is battling for its life.
The theaters have marked no decrease
in attendance. All the great opera
houses of Germany are filled as be-
fore.
Travel is as great as ever. Trains in
every direction are filled as heavily as
they were in times of peace.
"Sometimes I think the people of
Germany do not realize enough that
we really are at war,” said the editor
of one of the most important German
• newspapers. “Maybe the new order
to conserve our bread supplies will re-
mind them of It."
But once you begin to meet people
In their homes, away from the more
formal etiquette of casual street intro-
ductions. you find soon enough that
Germany realizes it Is struggling
for its national life. There is hardly a
family that has not helped to pay the
terrible price. Father, or son, or
brother, or husband, or cousin, or af-
fianced, lies dead in the fields of
France or Belgium or Russia.
They were singing this recently at
the Marin county almshouse—and
there's not a baby In the place. It
was all over Uncle Peter T. Hansen,
who was celebrating his eighty-fifth
birthday and who had been feeling
poorly of late. For three or four days
he was in bed, suffering from a high
fever.
They thought it was all up with
Uncle Peter.
There was a consultation between
County Physician J. H. Kuser and Dr.
Wald J. Stone. Something had to be
done. Finally the seat of trouble was
found in Uncle Peter's mouth.
Uncle Peter had four nice new mo-
lars, two upper and two lower and—
what luck!—opposite each other.
Uncle Peter ate chicken that night
for his dinner. And he was just as
proud of his new ivories as was the
baby's mother In the song.

The caller at the teller's window
was very bald, but the teller inside had
him beaten by a hair's breadth. There
was still a straggling fringe around
the outer border of the caller's head,
while the teller's had long reached the
stage when he brushed his bead with
a towel.
The caller had evidently Imbibed
rather freely that day.
He took a long look at the teller,
smiled a smirking, quizzical smile,
then reached into his vest pocket and
extracted a fat cigar.
“Sliey. old feller." he mumbled,
thrusting the cigar between the win-
dow bars, “have one on me. Anybody
that’s as baldheaded as you deserves
a treat!”
It is a sad thought, but true, that
mother's little lamb may grow up and
have a foul tongue.

Toledo.—The body of Mrs Agnes
Yoder, twenty-five, wife of Edward
Yoder, a lay preacher of Milford,
Mich., was found in a bathroom in a
home for girls. All the clothing was
burned off and the flesh cooked. The
coroner found that Mrs. Yoder haa
committed suicide by saturating der
Clothing with coal oil and igniting it.
DIVER WINS IN LIFE FIGHT
New York.—"There is nearly as
much crime committed In Fifth avenue
every day in the week as there 1b in
the much-abUBed Bowery,” says Fa-
ther William J. Rafter, in charge of
the Holy Name mission in the Bowery.
"A lady could start from Cooper
square and walk on one side of the
Bowery down to Park row and back
again, on the other Bide and there
wouldn't be one slurring remark
passed regarding her. It any man
dared there would be a hundred ready
to fight him.
“In the mind of the average citizen
the name 'Bowery' is one of evil re-
pute—the recognized habitat of
brazen vice and unfettered crime. Ho
believes that no one lives within Its
crime-steeped precincts except the
predatory and murderous denizens of
the underworld. To him it is the
Bowery of fiction.
“How vastly different is the poor
old Bowery today. Its character
may be summed up In three words—
•poor but respectable.' Physically
considered, it is one of the main
arteries of the city’s downtown traffic.
Across It at every block the East side
pours Its teeming thousands into the
Broadway business district. It is
practically the Broadway of the East
side On both sides it is lined with
retail stores of every description. By
night it Is lighted by store and street
lamps, and during the day the side-
walks are crowded with people. Its
people—and there are as many as
25,000 or them—are mostly honest,
harmless, lawnbidlng men. Poor?
Yes. Many of them would be abso-
lutely homeless were it not for the
cheap lodging-houses where for ten or
fifteen cents one may obtain shelter
for the night. It is the Mecca of the
poor and unfortunate. We have many
college graduates within our midst,
nnd most of them come from good
homes.
“There Is scarcely a town or city In
the country which has not at least one
representative on this thoroughfare.
Indeed the Bowery belongs to the
whole world. There is no better
place to look for a missing man Only
the other day two young girls came
to me seeking to learn the where-
abouts of their father, whom they
hadn't seen in years I expected the
man to call about six o'clock, for It so
happened that he was one of my spe-
cial charges. It was scarcely five,
so they went to a small restaurant
near to have a bite to eat. Scarcely
were they seated when the door
opened and in came their father with
a shovel over his arm. 1 had helped
him to save some money Trom his
small wages and he now is an Inde-
pendent. upright man.
"Few of our men are drunkards,
though it Is the common belief that
habitues of the Bowery spend every
penny they get on liquor. Our men
do not drink On the contrary, when
they have a little money they pay
back what they owe or save it for a
rainy day."

One of his hands became caught In

For ten minutes he was helpless,
while those above continued to pump

efforts he was able to pull his hand
out of his rubber glove and then, be-
fore the onrushtng water could over
come him, he jerked the life line and
was hoisted to the top.
Culbert was none the worse for his
experience, although It was some time
before he was able to resume bis work.

at the subscriber’s end of the local
telephone line. A long drawn howl,
more barking, and then silence. Cen-

call, though Fred Peters’ collie has
been taught to bark over the phone.
The dog's antics worried her. but she
called through the phone "Good old

The dog barked and howled again.
The hello girl, convinced there was
