OF Germany as New Com
mander of the Imperial
Yacht.

BERLIN, Nov. emperor Will
liam has selected as the commander
of the imperial yacht, Hohenzollern,
Captain ]. Kraft. thereby going out
side of the ranks of the nobility for
one of the most Immediate mem.
bers of his official family.
This choice has been widely well
coined since the privileged position
of the aristocracy in the crack reg
iments and higher commands in the
army is keenly felt@by many citizens
and has been the subject Of long ag-
itation.
Captain Kraft is not only highly
regarded in naval circles but is one
Of tho most skillful of. Germany's
amateur yachtsmen, having often
been selected to steer yachts of tho
emperor and members of his family
at the annual yachting festivals at
Kiel. He accompanied Prince and
Princess Eitel Friedrich as naval
aide on their trip last year to Pal
estine and Egypt. Captain Krafts
second in command and two others
of the six officers of the Hohenzol |
lern are also outside the nobility.
The Germany navy has in general
been free from the influence OF fam
lily and court connections. The ca
reer opened in 1t to men from the
people was strikingly illustrated by
the names in the list of promotionsl
published after the summer mai
neuvers, in which the officers ap-
pointed to the high commands, with
one or two exceptions, lacked the
noble prefix won" \
The controversy between the sur
geons at the time of the death of tho
Emperor Frederick, father of the
present Emperor, has just been re-
opened by the publication of the
private letters of Ernest Won Berg
man, one of the surgeons who at
tended his Maiesty's deathbed.
Although there is little new that
is told in the correspondence, some
curious lights are thrown on the
actions OF the doctors engaged.
some Of which seem to have been oc-
casioned by political considerations.
Sir Morell Mackenzie. whose pro-
cedure has been the subject OF con
slant attack on all sides, was, it is
said, under the wrongful impress
sion that member of the house OF
Hohenzollern could not ascend to
the throne If he were suffering from
a mortal disease, and on this account
the famous English surgeon is stated
to have denied the fact that his pa
tient was suffering from cancer The
same idea was also possessed by
Bismarck until he vas shown con
clusiyely that it was not according
to the constitution

re'gning family, however. which
makes necessary the holding of
post-mortem examination to discover
the cause Of death. The letters of
Ernest Won Bergman occupy many
columns in the newspapers.
In view of the 2OOth anniversary
of the birth of Frederick the Great, .
early next year, the disposal at Leip.
sig at the end of November of auto /
eraph letters of that monarch, to-
gether with those of some Of the
most celebrated characters in
European history, is attracting at
tention.
The collection is that of Carl Gel
bel, and is to be offered at the
rooms of the dealer who recently
sold the famous Martin Luther let

yesterday morning. when a large dele
cation of the Mothers Congress attended
to hear the Rev. DIR. U. G. B. Pierce,
pastor Of the church, conduct the serv-
ices. and, although his sermon was not
devoted wholly to the subject Of child
Welfare. he made many decided refer
ences to it throughout. In part, he took
up the duty Of the church to the child
as its spiritual adviser. and praised the
work already accomplished by the Moth
ers' Congress in establishing laws gov
erning the welfare of the child by Con-
sress.
Rev. Dr. Charles Wood, pastor of the
Church of the Covenant, also paid
marked tribute to the mothers during the
course of his sermon yesterday morning.

With special services in leading
churches of the city devoted to child well
fare and the relation of the church to the
child. in addition 20 impressive memorial
services in honor of those members who
died during the last year, the delegates
to the Second National Mothers Con-
gress spent busy Sunday.
Shortly before o'clock the ballroom
of the Arlington was crowded with dele
gates who came to pay reverence to the
memory of Mrs. James H. McGill. ma
tional corresponding secretary, and Mrs.
William II. Murphy. vice president for
six years. both of whom died within the
last six months. Mrs. Frederick Schoff.
president Of the congress, presided.
Spring flowers and wreaths decorated
the platform where the national officers
were seated. and the favorite hymns of
the congress were sung. Mrs. Schoff
opened the services with prayer, which
was followed by Nearer, My God. to
Thee" in which all the delegates Joined
in the singing.
Tribute to Dead.
A special feature was the touching
tributes to the two national officers,
which were read by Mrs. Schoff and
other delegates, and when the last was
read, Miss Helen Grinnell Mears, Of New
York sang. II Know that My Redeemer
Liveth." When her last note died away.
there was a touching scene when many
of the aged delegates, their hearts fresh
with the memo.ies of their departed
associates. bent their heads and wept ST.
lently.
Mrs. Theodore W. Birney. president of
the District Chapter. made the principal
address. She took as her text, THE
spirit Of the congress of mothers-love
and conservation to the service Of His
little ones"
1t was not the congress OF mothers
bent on the enaction of laws governing
child welfare and the publication of the
home that Mrs. Birney dealth with. 1t
was rather the army Of present-day
mothers struggling with the unseen forces
on every side of them, sheltering the
weak and the unhappy, and guiding their
young sons and daughters in the paths
that lead TO a wider and higher life be-
yond, of whom Mrs. Birney spoke. Un-
yielding love and conservation to duty,
was the aim Of the Mothers Congress.

true mother the world over.

in change.
The check made payable to
the well appearing one proved to
be forged.
I'VE naturally ask why this
piano concern did not investigate
a total stranger before they fell
for very old form of swindle,
the principles of which were
doubtless known to them.
Seemingly they wanted to be
humbugged.
THEY DID NOT WANT
TO BE HUMBUGGED, but
they did want to make that piano
sale.
Their desire to make the sale
was stronger than their desire to
suspect the supposed patron.
In this predominating desire
to make that sale they. hoped
against hope-just as all of us
have done in one phase of life or
another.
People believe what they want
to believe, and the desire for

POINTS AN ADVERTISING
MORAL which should be heed

eve frequently hear the state
ment that PEOPLE WANT TO
BE HUMBUGGED.
"They don't want to be hum

SThey are humbugged so often
that, in the absence of an ex-
PLANTATION, they seemingly seek
the process.
"The reason is on the broad
general principle that people be-
lieve what they want to believe
or possibly, what they prefer to
believe.
