REVISION OF FRENCH HISTORY
M. Omerss Claims That Napoleon
Died at Schoenbrunn and
Not at St. Helena.

Apropos Of Bonaparte, attention
may we'll be called to the sensational
hypothesis which is being ardently
promulgated by the learned archivist.
NJ. Omersa NJ. Omersa maintains
that the emperor of the French did
not die at St. Helena, but at Schoen-
brunn He bases this hypothesis upon
the following data:
l. A gentleman who bore a strik-
ing resemblance to Napoleon opened
a spectacle makers shop at Verona.
Italy. shortly after the second restora-
ton He became intimate with
iewelry named Petrucci. who was i'm
pressed by his exceptional intelli-
gence In 1928. after practicing his
trade most successfully for eight
years. he announced that he was
about TO make long journey and in
trusted TO Petrucci a letter which he
requested him to dispatch to the king
of France. IL he did not hear from him
within three months. In due time
Petrucci carried out these instruc-
tions He was promptly visited by
French governmental official who
liquidated the spectacle shop. and pur-
chased from him promise of silence
for 100000 crowns.
,. The private register OF the pro-
curator at Schoenbrunn contains.
( against the date Sept. %. 1923. this
entry: Yesterday an unknown man
tried to enter the park at night by
climbing the wall. The sentinel shot
him. The only words he was able to
pronounce before he died were these:

SLEMP'S WARNING
TO REPUBLICANS
Cautions Them to Remain AWAY
From Democratic Primaries
This Summer.
Especial to Tho Timu-Disna,eh.l

LL lSpC1laA ~ L va Il iss-SS ken.
Washington, D. c.. April 25.-Con-
gresham Siemp has just prepared ana
sent to George L.. Hart, of Roanoke.
secretary of the State Executive Com
mittee, an official circular in Which he
calls attention OF the Republicans In
the State to the fact that they should
remain away from the polls where"only
Democrats are candidates in the pri-
maries this summer. lie also hits the
Democrats a lick for their alleged OK
travagancc in State affairs. When
asked for a statement of the matter
to-day, Mr.. Slemp said:
II see by the press throughout the
State that there is considerable dis
cussIon about the Republicans OF Wiz
gtnia participating In tho Democratic
senatorial primaries. I feel 1t my
duty. as chairman of the party in the
State. to warn the Republicans against
this.
81 hope that no Republican Will so
far forget his duty to his party as TO
align himself with either faction or
the Democratic party.
1T seems to me that from state
ments being published through the
various Democratic papers In the
State, that the Democratic party is
showing incompetency 10 manage tile
HIldIiS oL Inc Ctutc, ana should no
longer be intrusted with power. when
tho running expenses exceed the States
Income. The Republicans should
everywhere put up candidates and or
sanise forces to maintain the integrity
OF h party organization, and no Re-
publican should by participation or
implication or otherwise indorse a
party or any member of a party that
refuses the Republicans. tho right or
selection OF their judges and officers Of
election.
II believe that the time Is coming In
Virginia when the people will be turn
ing their attention 10 some other
source for relief.
"Of course. any Republican under
stands that after participating In
these primaries. he Is in tho same al
titudc as II 1t were a convention. and
will probably be compelled 10 take
n pledge to support tho Democratic
nominees for the LEGISLATURE.
II hope that the Republicans
throughout the State viii use their
influence and prevent tho Republicans
from taxing any part whatever In this
primary erection p. IL. MEG.
