the embassy az Washington.
The truth is that Lieut.. Col. Wiser
was never much attracted by the exi-

service. Yesterday he was received in a
farewell audience by the Kaiser on board
the imperial yacht Hohenzoilern. His

Berlin. June 2s-The question OF suit
able sheds for airships is interesting the
technical world Of Germany about as
much as the airships themselves.
The German war department has so far
pinned its faith 10 rectangular buildings
500 feet long, from so to I4O feet wide, and
IS feet high. which can only be entered
from either end.
With a strong wind sidewlse on the
she'd eirshiDs have been damaged through
being thrown against the side Of the build
ing or getting jammed at the entrance.
Count Zeppelin therefore favors circular
buildings that can be entered from all
sides. But with airships over 500 feet
long the area OF circular halls becomes
enormous, and their cost almost pro-
hibitive.
The construction OF the doors also pre-
sents difficulties. Horizontal and vertical
sliding doors. the latter made TO sink
into the ground, have been tried with in-
different success. a Berlin engineering
firm presents solution Of the difficulty
by circular sliding doors that move along
the side of the building
Another proposal is 10 construct revoiv-

cult IN the case Of floating docks such as
Count Zeppelin possesses at Friedrichs-
hafen, but il IS held 70 be technically

The latest suggestion Is % build sheds
TO float in artificial circular basins. which
II IS believed would be cheaper than 90

discussions now going on in the engi-
neering journals. IL is plain that the

Paris. June 26-France does not pro-
pose 20 be left behind by Germany in the
matter Of passenger airship lines. and a
company has been formed 70 run dlrl-
gibles between Paris and certain French
towns. The concern Is called the Trans

Five balloons are to be constructed, the
first OF which, named after the city OF
Nancy, viii be ready In few days, and
II Is hoped that the four others viii be
completed by the end Of the year. The
length Of the Vile de Nancy is sixty
meters. and its speed is set down al fifty

NURSING YEOMANRY IN CAMP
Women Try to Acquaint Themselves

Not to Talk after

London. June 26.-At Lee, q distant sub

world has surely never seen before.
It's inhabitants were a detachment OF
the Nursing Yeomanry. a corps Of WON
en- whose duty in war time IS 10 follow
the fighting line and succOr the wounded.
The affair was no picnic. but a serious
effort on the part OF the women to inure
themselves to conditions which might
arise during actual warfare. Everything
was done IN grim earnestness. They
groomed their own horses. did sentry
duty al night, slept In tents. and worked
from reveille TO lights out with their am

and treating imaginary wounded men.

members Of the corps that no talking IS
allowed IN the tents after Tights out, q"

work so seriously that this rule was

KAISER RESTORES CUSTOM.
snuR Boxes WIZ Be Scattered Among

AAG BABAoiHANs-
London. June 2s.-In the old days when
a king received the courtiers of brother
sovereign he distributed bags Of money
among them. but as time went on people
began to see a certain crudity in the plan.
The moneys value might pass. but
some artistry must be used in cloaking IT.
The snuffbox in its richest form was
hailed as a convenient tender.
At many Of the German courts the
same snuffboxes did duty again and
again. The court Jeweler provided the
box az a specified price. the sovereign
gravely presented il 10 the courtier or
diplomatist whom he desired 10 honor,
and an hour afterward the snuffbox was
back at the jewelers.. redeemed for its
cash value
The Emperor OF Germany is credited
with the desire 10 Fe-establish the fashion

BANK FAKERs CONVICTED.
King and Roberts Given Terms in
Prison.

London. June 2s.-King and Roberts. the
bank employees who worked chain OF
suburban branch banks by taking ac-
counts under the name OF D. S. winden
last November. were tried to-day and
convicted
King was sentenced 10 seven years IN
prison and Roberts TO eighteen months.
Using the cipher Of the bank in which
they were employed. Roberts wrote 70
the managers Of the suburban branches
that Mr.. Windell had transferred ac-
counts from one branch 70 another. Then
King, posing as Windell. visited each
bank in turn and drew a part or the sup
posed deposit I'm cash. He obtained alto
gether about $1,000
Suspicion was first aroused In the mind
Of the chauffeur Of the taxicab in which
King made HIS journey. He wondered
why his fare visited so many banks on
the same morning. and when he had
given bank manager the hint the hu-
norous significance Of d. S. Windell
dawned upon him. and a hurried investi-
cation led TO the arrest Of both swindlers.

Paris. June 26.-Mr. Perretts theory OF
earthquakes, which was justified by the
catastrophe at Messina. as told at the
time. has now been further confirmed by
q French scientist, n. de Parville.
n. de Parville holds that the sun and
moon are mainly responsible for earth
cuakes. Briefly, the theory IS that at GER
tain times the sun and moon are excep-
tionaIly well placed for exerting their
maximum pulling effect on the earth IN a
practically straight line This happens
when the moon is perigee-at fits near
est TO the earth-and at or near a time
Of eclipse.
Working On this principle. NJ de Par
vile prophesied the French earthquake OF
last Friday night being only a few hours
late in his calculation. Other examples
tending 10 show the correctness Of the
theory can be quoted.
On June the moon approaching perl
gee was also totally eclipsed, and on that
day an earthquake and tidal wave oc-
CURED in the Dutch East Indies. Nine
days later, on June L. the moon
reached perigee. just past its last quar-
ter, and the previous evening the earth
quake in France took place An eclipse
Of the sun and the perigee position Of the
moon Immediately preceded the Messina
earthquake.
An eclipse Of the sun with the moon in
perigee happened on January 3, 1905, when
a severe earthquake shook Jamaica The
same conditions prevailed on the day
Kingston WAS destroyed. IN January. 1907.
The moon IN perigee with sun eclipsed
also marked the day Of the eruption Of
Mont Pelee. In May, 1902.
The belt in which seismic and volcanic
disturbances seem mainly 10 happen Is
apparently less than / 900 miles wide, en-
circling the earth. its southern limit be-
ing some 2,O00 miles north Of the equator.

they appointed a kitchen staff OF their

the new staff out and barricaded the
