tee Barnard declared. "to assess the en-
tire amount of the damages, plus the costs
OF these proceedings, provided they find
benefits sufficient to equal said damages
and costs.
The verdict mentioned Is the first that
has been rendered in a condemnation case
where the law provided for the assessment
of the entire amount of the damages since
the opinion In the Brandenburg case was
handed down by the Supreme Court
1t Is stated that the opening of the gov
erlment reservation mentioned was con-
ditional upon the jury assessing the entire
amount of the damages against the prop
erty IN the neighborhood as benefits, and
that 1t would have been necessary to aban-
don the proceedings looking to the opening
of the reservation If the jury had failed
to assess such amount plus the costs of the
condemnation proceedings.
The District was represented at the hear
ing by Assistant Corporation Counsel Smith.
Attorneys John Ridout and Gordon & Cor

NOTHING HID FROM KAISER.
How German Emperor Keeps In Touch
with Worlds Affairs.

The German emperor's interest in
everything that goes on In the world
Is we'll known, but few are aware Of
the trouble he takes to keep In touch
with current affairs. According to a
Munich newspaper. the kaiser reads
at least three papers every day, chang.
ing the list several times week in
order to become fully acquainted with
the ideas OF all political parties in the
state. But this by no means exhausts
his appetite for Information. Every
day the ministry OF foreign affairs. as
we'll as that of the interior. has to pro-
vide newspaper cuttings. properly
named and dated. and pasted on slips
ready for the emperor's perusal.
These he carefully reads. making mar
ginal notes as he goes along, and they
are then scrupulously classified and
put aside ready for immediate refer
ence. Often. too. the emperor asks
for cuttings relating to the particular
technical subjects in which for the
time he Is specially interested.
