f > PAOK KIOHT GERMAN FRGPESTY TO MAKE GOOD OURS Attorney General Palmer Says Americans Will be Reimbursed BIG INVESTMENTS SCREENED INTRIGUE Great Land Company in Florida Had Political Purpose Chicago.-?"Americans temporarily resident in enemy countries during the. war will have little difficulty in having their property returned to them under the new conditions fol lowing- the signing- of tlio armistice" Attorney General Palmer told the Illinois Bar Association, discussing the work of the alien property custodian's o/fice. ; "When the enemy character of persons rests solely upon their i*esidence, it will he seen that by change of residence into non-enemy territoiy, they lose their enemy character. The attorney general has adopted a liberal interpretation of the act,, which permits such persons when they lose their enemy character to he treated as if they had always been non-enemy persons and to have their property returned upon a proper showing of loyalty." American citizens who lost their property in Germany will he allowed, in the opinion of the attorney general to present claims to the United | States government, which will see that they are reimbursed from German holdings here. He said that would be much hotter than turning property back to Germans, for ho foresaw that the Gentians would not welcome as business men upon American soil within the next decade at least. Much new light on the work of running to earth enemy interests in the United States was given by the attorney general who was alien property custodian before he entered the cabinet. "Down in Florida, the great German American Lumber Co.. owned by a prince of Germany, had accumulated nearly 200,000 acres of timber land around St. Andrew's Bay," said Mr. Palmer. "This German prince had put millions of dollars into it. He bad never gone near to it, he had never received any interest of dividends out of it, he had selected the German consul at Pensacola as the manager of the company, and when we came to investigate we found that his company had bitterly resisted an American railroad building a line across hLs property or across the property of his neighbors to reach St. Andrew's Bay, on which his property was located. It so happens that St. Andrews Bay is the best harbor on the Gulf of Mexico and the nearest harbor on American soil to the Panama Canal. It so happens that the mar ager of the company for years hail been a member of the foreign office of Germany and it so happens alsc that when we took over the plant am began to operate it and examinee |X UFT OFF CORNS! , Apply, few drops then lift sore, 1 touchy corns off with fingers f I -MS I 1% \ \ Docbu t hurt a hit!

FORMER KAISER DRFADS GHOST OF "WHITE LADY" The fugitive Kaiser at his refuge it Amorongen, Holland, is more worried over tno expectation of a visitation from the Hohonzollem family ghost than over the prospects that a tribunal of the five great powers will try him for the crimes, according to the Watch on the Rhine, a newspaper published by the American Army of Occupation at Audcmach, Germany. Copies of trie newspaper were received yesterday by Col. Julius F. Conrad. chief of the Army Recruiting Bureau, No. 4(51 Eighth avenue, says the New York Herald. The special ghost of the Hohcnzollcrn family?no family with any pietentions to royalty is complete without a guaranteed spectre?is known as the "White Lady." For centuries it has been tradition that hti appearance means the imminent death of the monarch who sees her. The legend is of venerable age, for the first account of her appearance dates from 1598. .'The account of the one-time Kaiser's terror as given in the Watch on the Rhine, follows: "The Kaiser in his haven of refuge , at Amerongen may suffer from dyspepsia, ear trouble, paralysis, nightmares of St. Helena and strange visitations, but if we are able to believe reports his greatest agony i comes from his expectations of a visit from the 'White Lady' the family ghost of the Hohonzollerns. The appearance of the 'White Lady' is supposed to portend death of the mcnarch whom she visits. For many centuries past stories have been told of her appearance before the rulers of Prussia just before their death. "There are many stories of the origin of this apparition. The tale most widely accented is that the 'White Lady' was conigunda, Countess von Plassenburg. When but a girl she was married against her will to an oh! count, Sigmund von Plassenburg, who died a few years later. Free then to do as she chose, she fell in love with Albert of Nuremburg, one ol the ancestors of the House of Hohenzollern, but he did not return her love: Thinking that he objected to he'* two children she had them slain. But instead of marrying her, Albert had her seized, tried anil condemned j j to death. , 'When the time for her execution came she pronounced this curse on Albert: 'When you come to die, I shall be there to haunt you, and no member of your family and your desccndents but shall be troubled by me at the time of his death.' o A Self Entertainer.

Editor Herald: Will you please allow me a column * in your paper for a few lines in remembrance of Uncle Wash Thompkins? On the 28th day of April 1010 ! at 11 o'clock the death angels visited the home of Callio Thompkins and took away her dear loving husband and our father. On the following day hi - remains wore taken to Rchoboth cemetery and were laid to rest in the proscncp of a host of sorrowing fi iends and relatives who mourn his | death. The funeral services were , conducted by Rev. Walter Todd. Pa- , pa was (>9 years, 3 months and 25 days old when the Lord saw fit to take him to live with Him forever in that world that has no end. In his 1 youthful days he joined the Rehoboth Baptist church and he has lived a faithful member and was the oldest deacon of that Church. He leaves besides a wife, (? children ' and lr> grand children, and a host of friends of whom the boys are Jerry, Henry, and Whiteford Thompkins, and the girls arc Mary Dix, Nettie Roberts, and Georgia Thompkins. In his early life he was happily married to Rebecca Lewis and to them seven children were born, and .. n ~t .1 t - i i-L; i o i aiitr snu ucpancu uus me ne was married to Callie Stalvey and to them one chii(i was born, little Geronie. Dear Papa said he was going1 home and we feel that he is safe in the arms .of Jesus where nothing can. disturb or hinder him from his peaceful rest. Oh, how sad it was on that bright Monday morning when we all could stand by the bedside and see him lay ! his head on Jesus' breast and breathe his life out sweetly there. Sleep on dear Papa, sleep on, Nothing can disturb your rest; While with God and Angels you sing on, You reign with all the blest. A loving one from us is gone, A voice we loved is still; A place is vacant in Callie's home, Which can never be filled. Oh dear papa, how we miss you, How we miss your smiling face; And we know that there's no other, That will ever take your place. His chair at home is vacant, [His seat at church looks sad; But we all can sit and look on it, And know his heart is glad. His daughter-in-law, Ellen Thompkins. o OBITUARY.

AS PRESIDENT Proclaims Himself Secretary of War?Situation in Mexico ' v, ' Serious Washington.?Villa forces have proclaimed Gen. Felipe Angeles Provisional President of Meixco and Villa himself Secretary of War. The move coming at the climax of military operations considered by the Carranza Government so serious that it has asked the United States for pei mission to move troops through Texas, New Mexico and Arizona, is regarded here as reflecting a situation more serious in Mexico than any siince the triumph ot Carranza forces over Villa three years ago. Viewed in connection with the activities of the Felicista forces in Southern Mexico the situation is regarded as full of possibilities. Washington Silent. American Government officials are refusing to comment on the news until they receive official confirmation. There seems, however, to be no doubt of its authenticity. Angeles' reported proclamation first announcing that Americans in Mexico would be protected is particularly interesting to officials here, coming as it does on the heels of the refusal of the State Department to grant Carranza's request that he he allowed to move troops through Ameiican territory for the purpose of protecting Americans in Chihuahua. Acting Secretary Polk announced he had notified the Mexican Government he could not grant the request made unless assurances could be given that Americans would be afforded protection while the troops were in transit. That this could not be done had been admitted previously by the Mexican authorities. Governor Hobby, of Texas, declined to authorize the passage of Mexican troops through Texas without guarantees of protection to Americans ami so notified the State Department. Angeles Well Known. Felipe Angeles is well known to Ame- ican officials through his services to the French Government <lurin the European war as inspector of munitions in the United States. H? is held in high esteem by the French Government and was considered by the United States Government at the time of the Niagara Falls conference the best selection for the Mexican presidency. At this conference three names were agreed I- - - * 1? ../vrxMAimniotitrnc f\ f tVio upon oy tut: IC|?WUIU.U.V,.. w. various Mexican factions and the United States as1 suitable presidential choices; Angeles' name headed that list. Mexican Indian. Angeles is about forty-five yeztrs old and is a full-blooded Mexican Indian, as were Porfirio Diaz and Hperta. He is a graduate of Chapultepec Military Academy, "the West Point of Mexico," and of the St. Cyr Artillery School in France. He was head of Chapultepec under Madero who chose Angeles to go to Morelof and conduct the campaign against Zapata. Angeles quickly saw that the Zap atistas were not genuine revolution ists but were fighting for the restor ation of the lands that had beeti ta ken from their fathers by Diaz. Bj January, 1913, the fighting in More los had practically ceased and Ange les was ready to make a paece witl Zapata by which the Indians shouh be granted their lands. In February however, the "ten days of tragedy' began in Mexico City when the arm; revolted against Madero. Presiden Madero telegraphed Angeles to brinj his artillery to the capital. It wa | admitted at the time that of all o : the forces fighting against the re 1 volting army Angeles did the bea work. ; ij 1 ?. 1 ^ t U-'' { I WILL BE IN MY OFFICE I ?
