SOME STRANGE LAWS FOR
STUDENTS IN GERMANY
BERLIN LIMITS HOURS FOR PIANO
PLAYING
Foot Passengers Are Sued If They Are
Careless Enough to Be In a
Street Accident

Berlin Correspondence of Chicago Tribune.
The municipal laws of Berlin are rs
numerous as the sands of the sea.
There is law for everything and
everything has it's law, but not like
in America, as soon as made relegatei
to oblivion. They are enforced here 70
the unttermost degree, and as the ruler
over all is good deal of an autocrat,
those who execute the laws have no
leeway and must fulfil to the letter. In
consequence, there are times when the
laws seem most unjust.
A case in point was the bringing of
d suit against father whose child had
fallen on the live rail of the under
ground electric road and was killed.
Had this occurred in England or
America the father would have sued
the company for heavy damages. The
German public prosecutor, however,
instituted proceedings against the man
for "contributory negligence" in allow
ing his son to fall on the track.
The right of way in the street is
always claimed and upheld by the
driver of a team. Foot passengers
must choose their way carefully or else
be run down; there is no stacking up
and one takes his life in his hands at
crowded street crossings.
While the police are wonderfully
efficient and splendid looking body Of
men, they are evidently not instructed
to guide pedestrians at the crossings,
but will show every courtesy in many
other ways. Should one be knocked
down or run over the offender goes
promptly on his way rejoicing, appar-
entity. There is no delay in traffic, but
the one who is perhaps injured is
again sued for negligence.
One can scarcely imagine to what
results such laws would lead if put
into effect in America, where corpor-
atoms now have such advantages over

1t is reported that in feudai days,
even when famine was abroad in the

the trade in goldfish was flourishing.
The demand at present appears to be
without limit, and the output shows a
substantial increase each year. Many
thousand people make living by grow

OF peddlers carry the fish through the
streets and along the country roads In
wooden tubs suspended from a,shoulder
bar.
The leading goldfish center is Kori-

one should live In a musical commu-
nifty, where there are as many pianos
as there are rooms. To walk through
many street in Berlin at certain hours
during the day a casual observer could
easily conclude the inhabitants had
gone music mad. But the law stops
in and saves regulations by decreeing
no playing or practising before o'clock
in the morning or after 10 o'clock at
night, and silence must be observed
between 2 and 4 o'clock, so that the
somnolent one may enjoy his siesta.
Laws for Students
There are laws made and strictly
enforced that bear wholly upon the
auslander. The student body of Berlin
is enormous-there are 5000 alone ma
circulated in the university, 5000 more
who are classed at zuhoerers-merely
listeners-who attend special courses
of lectures and are not otherwise identi-
fed with the university. While large
number of these are Germans, still a
fair percentage are foreigners. Added
to this definite number there is the
large musical community, Of which
there is no way of securing even an es-
innate of their numbers. But about
every foreigner, when asked what
brings him here, replies "for music
study"
So here was a chance to enact few
laws for a special class.
Students as a whole, are not self
supporting, therefore cannot be readily
taxed. but when parents accompany
them or any one of independent in
come can be found, then is the time
to acquire some compensations for
allowing so many foreigners to sit
under the Kaiser's lindens and enjoy
the rare German sunshine.

Recently a young American, travelling

rHE tENYoN gLoct. OF PcT uREsouE HISTORY

One of the most interesting ruins
ever seen in. Minneapolis stands at
Third street and Third avenue S, where
once stood the disreputable landmark
once known as the Senate saloon, and
later as Bob Salter S place. It's pres
ent odd appearance is due to clash
between the building inspector and the
owner in which the former says that he
has gained his point.
Thirty years or more, ago the corner
was occupied by three frame buildings
of cheap construction. Later they were
moved up to the lot line, store fronts
put in and a brick wall erected on the
Third street and Third avenue sides, SO
as to give the appearance of a brick
block. The work was cheaply done in
the first place, and time and the wealth
er played havoc with the wall.
Building Inspector Houghton recently
ordered the brick taken down and also
the corner bull ding. The. order was
partially carried out and then. stopped

The lot Illustrated by the accompany
ing plan is IS feet by ITS feet, perfect
" level, the house standing on the
neither of them of equal interest with
the one shown. The house faces east,
throwing the drive and porte cochere
to the north, where they naturally be-
long, leaving the south side in lawn.
The properties on each side are such
that it is desirable to make distinct
separation from them by a screen. At
the same time one wants to preserve
considerable lawn, for the first prin-
ciple of good design is to avail one s
and frame it in, unless it can flow cas-
lily into the lawn Of another property.
On the south side is the driveway Of
a neighbor. The neighbours backdoor
and yard are in plain sight and in poor
condition. A heavy screen is therefore
placed against the south side from
about the building line back. The back
of the lot is against some vegetable
gardens. Since one would look at the
back plantation from the house or
street directly and not obliquely, it was
made mostly heavier. Also at the
south side, where there were direct
views from windows against the plant
ing, the planting was made thicker.
The drive needs some separation. be-
tween it and the north property. 1t
is desirable also that the drive and
porte cochere, being plainly visible from
the street, should be screened some
what, hence the planting at the north.
A garden is located in the northwest
corner Of the lot against a neighbor s
barn. A plantation stands between the
bounding mass and the turn. The house
is relieved by small planting at the
angles.
The frontyard is treated as a part
of the street; the backyard is private
property. Hence the planting in front
is placed only in direct connection with
the house. There is nothing br.; trees
along the highway, but were the neigh,
boring properties treated with shrub
berry along the highway it would have
been in keeping to- treat this similarly
backyard is kept as secluded as pos
sible. :..., -.
The plants chosen for the front are
of the finer character. Dwarf pines
are put each side Of the slips and at the
angles of the veranda. " Connecting
these are peonies and ph1ox, and along
the wall on the north side are ferns.
In line with the vamps of the steps
are spirea van houttei placed formal
~. For vines, there are clemat1ss at
the front, but Engelmann's creeper al
the sides. A climbing rose may be
placed at the back somewhere on the
south side,. where it will not be un
! duly conspicuous out of it's blooming
season. ri
Spireas are always plants Of the
utmost refinement and are only
proper when some degree Of elegance is
desired. Hence they are especially in
keeping at an entrance and in close
connection with house. They will dc
as a part Of shrubby border as here
but they must be strengthened by more
