Milwaukee left IN the days when
the name of Germany only lived in

graduated into many political units.
Unfriendly foreign cities who regret
that Germany cannot in our days
be bullied like in former centuries
are apt to reproach us of having with
our political sleepiness also laid
aside our old and true German
ideals. This, however, is not at all
the case. n believe that no better
proof could have been given that

Invercargill, n H., March 24.-The
barkentine Nimrod, which early in
1908 took Lieutenant f. Fl. Shackle-
tons Antarctic expedition to the
South, called here on her return.
Lieutenant Shackleton declined to
make any statement regarding his ex-
plorations. The Nimrod later left for
Lyttelton. the port of Christ Church,
N z.
In July, 1907, the Nimrod, COM
manded by Lieutenant Shackleton and
carrying thirty-two men, including sci
entists, sailed from England for the
Antarctic region, touching later at
New Zealand to complete her proyi-
sions. Later an exploration party of
twelve men, provisioned for two years
and provided with Siberian ponies and
dogs, was left in camp at Mount Ere
bus and last December the Nimrod
left New Zealand to pick up the ex-
plorers and return them to England.
Lieutenant Shaekleton has had ex-
perience as an Arctic explorer as a
member of expeditions under Captain
Scott in 1923

Sharon, Pa, March 2i-Winie
Whitla arrived here at 1906 p. m. A
crowd of fully 5.0e0 persons extended
the boy a demonstration of greeting.
Cheering and singing the crowd fol-

Whitla home.
With difficulty the father, boy and
others of the party succeeded in ex-

end went into the house. Here the
mother, who had been patiently wait
ing with happy anticipation to see her
boy, aifectionately clasped her child
to her breast and for several minutes
they cling to one another and scbbed.
After being in the house five min
utes Mr.. and Mrs. Whitla, with Billy
his uncle and aunt, Mr.. and Mrs. Bull
and his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs
William Whitla, both of them over
eighty years old, came out to the
front porch. The crowd cheered and
rushed toward the house For a mo
ment ii seemed as though some of the
people would be crushed. They were
restrained by the detectives, however
and consented to keep still while the
family posed for a photograph. AS
soon as this was over the demonstra
tiop broke forth again and continued
until long after the party returned tc
the house.

Whitla was not hleiined to discuss the
matter of ransom or the plans of the
family in dealing with the kidnappers

$4,000 ransom of Billy Whitla

mother, Mrs. Margaret Uhle, forgot to

last trace the police have of him.
Called Twice for Package.
The Hayes man stepped into the
store at noon and asked if package
had been left there for him. Mrs.
Hendrickson, without noting his ap-
pearance, told him there had not been.
An hour later a prosperous looking
man, who said his name was Will
iams, came in with a small package
in his, pocket
"He said 10 wanted to leave it for
a man named Hayes" said Mrs. Hen
Erickson. He asked If Hayes had

The Cleveland police are not in
clined to believe Mrs. Hendrickson
was a party to the kidnapping plot,
but that she was merely an innocent
agent for the payment of the $4,000
ransom.

May.
Lord Beresford's friends believe
that he has been forced out of the
navy by the faction that follows Sir
John Fisher, first lord of the adj
miralty, with whom he has recently
waged constant strife.
The press is showing much interest
as to whether Lord Beresford will
stand for parliament, as he has done
before, and debate naval policies.
Admiral Beresford has visited Amer

Whether they will ever be captured

1t may be a day or two before Billy
Whitla is able to tell the whole story
of his wanderings. When he came
into the Hollenden hotel he was dazed.
He scarcely knew his father when the
man leaped to him and seized him In
his arms.
He did remember that woman
gave him medicine" evidently a
strong narcotic, for many of the
childs recollections are hazy in the
extreme. His heavy eyes and unac-
customed dullness of speech prove
that he was in a stupor much of the
time that he was in the custody OF
the child stealers.
Even when he came to the Hollen
den he thought he was in Ashtabula
or Akron-he had heard the men tell
of those two places. He knew he
had been in Warren and in Newcastle
He thought he had been in the latter
place three days.

N. z, but Refuses to Discuss the
Results of His Trip-Successfui Out
come Announced in London by the
Pail Mall Gazette.
London, March 24.-Information has
reached London, according to the Pail
Mall Gazette, that the Antarctic ex-
pedition under Lieutenant Ernest H.
Shackleton of the British navy, which
left England in July. 1907, reached the
South pole.
The secretary of the Royal Geo.
graphical society said that he had no
information as to Lieutenant Shackle
tons success, but this does not dis,
prove the statement, as 1t Is known
that Lieutenant Shackleton contracted
to furnish the first news regarding his
explorations to London newspapers.
1t is considered significant here
that Lieutenant Shackleton, when he
came ashore at Invercargill, N. H., re-
fused all information regarding the
details of his exploration. He at once
went to the cable office and dis
patched a message. He looked the
picture of health and intimated that
all his comrades were well.

bade farewell to England at Cowes in

ship, the Nimrod, were King Edward
