BERLIN, Feb. 1s.-Cspecial TO The Bee)
The kaiser is still greatly worried about
the drinking habits Of army and navy Of
ficers He has gone to the extent Of ad-
vising them to cut out liquor and to sign
the pledge.
The Importance Of maintaining steady
nerves under modern conditions Of war
was the text Of speech delivered by him
at the Murwik Naval college. He said he
was aware that drinking was an old in
herited habit of the Germans, but they
must free themselves from Il by self-dis-
cipline. Formerly young men thought 1t
smart to consume great quantities of
/ liquor. AS a young officer he had occa-
/ sion to see instances of this, but without
ever joining in the revelry himself
Those were exploded notions, he saids
They were well enough for the good old
times, but not now. Nerves will win the
next war" added the kaiser. You viii
see from gunnery practice at target ships
the effect of modern gun-fire on board
ships. You will see the terrible destruction
it works. There firm nerves and cool
head are wanted and needed"
He suggested that they should quit tip
/ pling and join temperance societies
Crown Prince Acting UD.
/ 1t has been recognized for some time
that the crown prince is prone to be inn
pressed by the charms OF the opposite sex,
and, apparently he has yet to learn discre-
ton in this respect. His tour In the east
has afforded several instances of his in
stability and during the voyage of the
mail steamer Prince Ludwig in the Indian
| ocean his conduct on one occasion caused
passengers embarrassment. A fancy dress

wilderment of the dancers it was suddenly
brought to a close at the unexpected early
hour of eleven. subsequently it leaked out
that this was done by order of the crown
princess, who had been greatly piqued to
discover that the prince had been paying
pllchm attentlon to a sprtghtly young
American girl He had, in fact entered
his name on her program for nine dances,
| four of which, however the couple did
not spend In the bah room.
Police Must Keep within Law.
| A few days ago Judge Unger Of the
local criminal court delivered remarkable
dictum to the effect that citizens may
shoot brutal policemen. Summing up the
case Of an innocent pedestrian named
Hermann who died of wounds inflicted
by the police during the Moabit riots, the
judge said:
Policemen who were patrolling the
streets for the purpose of maintaining law
and order were undoubtedly engaged in
/ the lawful performance Of their duties.
The legality of their action came to an
end when, as has been proved by wit
nesses, a man who was making his way
peaceably through the streets was struck
down with the saber. In my judgment
man who was the object of such brutality
would not be acting contrary TO the law
If he defended himself by means of a well
aimed revolver shot"
Greatest Achievement.
The Lokalanzeiger has been collecting
the opinions of persons of distinction here
and abroad as to what they consider the
| greatest achievement of recent years Prof
Metschnikow OF Paris awards the palm to
the discovery OF radium and hopes that
various governments will encourage men
of science to pursue their researches in
this direction. DR.. Chariot things the
work of Shackleton, the most meritorious

aviation the greatest Nine. Fiosophow,
the Prussion feministe places the admis-
! SIGN OF women to Parliament In the first
rank, and the next to that aviation. NJ
Maizeres is inclined to place the peace
movement first. Ella Pepin the Russian
painter, takes much the same view. The
list concludes with the views Of Moisant.

memory. With unconscious irony he wrote
a few days before his death, the great
est conquest OF the age Is the triumph OF
the flying machine.
