Could Not Endure Honest Pros ,crity.
Berlin letter.
Baron Won Hammerstein, formerly
the editor Of Kreuz Zeitung and a
leader Of the conservative party in Ger
many, was sentenced the other dag to
three years penal servitude, to be de-
privcd of his civil rights and to pay a
fine of 100 marks for forgery, fraud
and breach OF trust. The baron's dis
grace Is almost as much Of a sensation
In Germany as was the downfall Of
Bacon in England. For twenty years
he was the all-powcrful leader OF the
conservative party in German politics.
He was discovered by Bismarck, who
was the first to recognize his energy,
courage. persistence ami mis- magnetic
power Owe men In his own station Of
life. Originally an impoverished
nobleman. Bismarck put wealth and
power into his hands by placing him
at the head Of the Kreuz Heitung with
an annual salary of $4,000 marks. This
paper was the organ and mouthpiece OF
the conservative party. Tho baron be-
came an eloquent speaker and his words
were applauded even by his political
enemies. Even last year. when many
knew Of his financial troubles, he re-
tanned his control OF the conservatives
and was v~ociferously applaudcd in the
reichstag as the spokesman Of his party.
At last came public disgrace. The
affairs Of the Krcuz Zeitung were in
vestigatcd and II was found that the
baron had ilunC away 1000, 900 marfs.
He had stolen the pension fund Of the
paper. forged drafts for immense sums
in the name Of Count Won Keirstein and
was literally overwhelmed with all

was ascertaincd, had been squandered
in a wild, dissolutc life, in which
figured champagne orgies. high betting
and desperate gaming. Just before the

Put the earth up there in the place of
Jupiter and the naked eye would with

300 times larger than the earth in bulk

that OF the earth about 100 times.
II would seem as If the ancients must

that planet is the largest of all the
worlds that revolve around the sun

of the greatest of the gods.

But the telescope shows that Jupiter

in an atmosphere OF great depth. and
that they form perhaps successive lay.
