PRINCE, PRISONER, is FREE
[BY UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATIONSl

BERLIN, Dec. 16.-Crown Prince
Wilhelm today completed the thirty
days of detention ordered by his faith
er, the emperor, as punishment for
the jingo demonstration made by the
heir to the throne in the Reichstag last
month, when he strongly expressed
his displeasure of Chancellor Beth
mann Holweggs explanation of the
FrancoGerman Moroccan agreement.
The imprisonment of the crown
prince has been largely theoretical, as
he spent but a few days at the military
quarters at Danzig, the place of de-
tention, and was then permitted to
leave because of the impending ac-
couchement of the crown princess.
He has been forced to remain out of
the limelight, however, which is Sc
we're punishment for the future en-
peror
The crown prince is said to be anx-
ious for war and it is known that he
was from the first violently opposed
to a peaceful settlement of the quar-
rel with France, unless Germany were
given much the better of the bargain.
The kaiser was very much angered by
the action of his elder son, who occu.
pied a seat in the spectators gallery
of the Reichstag, gesticulating his dis
approval of all the chancellor said and
indicating by mods of his head his ap-
proval of the attacks made on the
chancellor by Legislative opponents.

TAFT PROVIDES FOR EX-STATESMEN

Washington, March 13.-Whether it
is through the direct interest of Pres
ident Taft or due to the fact that his
influence is being brought to bear in
directly, it is a fact that many of those
members of congress who went down
in the political landslide of last No
vember and through the work of leg
isIatures in the different states, are
being we'll provided for
The present administration appears
to be DESTROYS of keeping all good men
in public life-whether they be Demo-
Gratis or Republicans-though, Of
course, preference is given the latter.
Since President Taft came to the
White House he has had a prediction
for handing out jobs, but he has not
confined himself entirely to that pol
icy. For instance, just the other day
he appointed former Congressman
Howard, of Georgia. dyed-in-the-
wool Democratic a place on the
tariff board; Senator Taliaferro, OF
Florida, who retired from the senate
on March 4, was rewarded by place
on the monetary commission before he
had left his seat 1t is true, however,
that in his case the appointment did
not come directly from the president,
but from the Democrats in the senate.
The first of the Republican appoint
ments was that of former Congress
man McKinlay, of California, who was
made surveyor of the port of San Fran
cisco.
Since that time the president has
appointed former Representative BOu-
tell, of Illinois, as minister to Portu-
gal. There was not a stronger sup
porter of the administration in or out
of congress than Mr.. Boutell and that

RALLY IS Deferred TO
FRIDAY night NEXT II
Ladies' Will Entertain Upon
That Night

The Hospital Association announces
this morning a postponement Of the
hospital rally" and entertainment,
planned for this evening at the high
school auditorium, until next Friday
night, 18th, when it will certainly
be given with all the entertaining fea-
lures heretofore planned The post
ponement tonight is due to the fact
that the Board of Trade holds its an
nual meeting and many gentlemen in-
terested in the hospital rally will de-
sire to attend this other meeting. At
the rally on Friday night next ices
and other delicious refreshments will
be served free by the ladies of the
Hospital Association to all friends at
tending

he should have been duly rewarded is
the most natural thing in the world.
With salary of $4,000, Senator
Warner, of Missouri, was placed ON
the Notifications board and as there
are few duties to perform in cone2-
tion with the place it looks like a gift,
pure and simple.
Former Senator Carter, of Montana
and Congressman DENLY, of Michigan,
who have just ended their official life
as national lawmakers, were invited
by President Taft to take seats on the
Canadian boundary committee, and
they accepted.
The third place nthis board will,
it is said, go to former Congressman
Jim" Tawney, of Minnesota, another
good Republican who went down in the
landslide of last fall. Mr.. Tawney is
really a good man-far above the av-
erage for whom soft berths are found.
He has been discussed in connection
with the administration of affairs IN
the Canal Zone, and other important
positions
This list includes only those who
have yet been selected for choice
places, and may be augmented by the
names of others at almost any time.
In fact, there are perhaps dozen or
more defeated and retiring congress
men who believe that they should not
suffer financially when they give their
best work for the administration while
! in harness. The probability is that
most of them will be given something,
but all cannot land gilt-edge jobs.
Mr.. Taft has been very liberal in the
distribution of his places and has even
gone SO far as to dig up few for
| those really needing them.

The Americas Presbyterian church
will soon possess cozy and pretty

plans to that end now under consid-

known, the church owns the small
library building alongside and now
used as a Sunday school annex 1t is
proposed to reconstruct this substan.

Crippled by tuberculosis.

According to a recent report by Dr.
Conrad Biesalski of Berlin, there ars
$4,000 crlpples in the German empire
out of population of 60,50o. 900. Over
$4,000 Of the cripples are in need OF
proper treatment. Doctor Biesalskt
states that In Is per cent. OF the Grip
pies examined, their deformity was
due to tuberculosis of the bones and
joints. and that there were 10000 such
treatment. He advocates the estab-
lishment OF seaside sanatoria for this
latter class of cripples.

Sharpless leaned back in his chair and
put his hands in his pockets. "The

the title to the Gates tract" he said.
II suppose we might as well fix that
now as any time. Have you got blank

Fench rummaged in his pockets for
the paper. "Where's Gates deed to
us?" he asked.
Here it is" Sharpless said, handing
it across the table. Better change the
wording little, so it won't look sus-

One fine feat of the senate during
the last week has been the complete
emasculation OF the home rule bill
demanded by every city in Michigan.
It was demanded that the home rule
act should be amended to make clear
~ possible the initiative, referendum
and recall measures and a bill was
introduced for this effect. The De-
troit United Railway is opposed to
such a measure as by the recall, some
Of the aldermen who are now fast
friends OF the company might be
taken ont Of the council while by the
initiative, the city might apply the
municipal ownership clause which the
council refuses to give them chance
at.
In accordance with this desire on
the part of the d. L. r. Senator Guy
Miller with the aid Of 10 other mem
bers of the senate cut the recall mea-
sure from the bill entirely and makes
the initiative possible through the
petition of 90 per cent OF the voters,
the petitions to be signed at the polls
on election day. Such measure
naturally makes the initiative impos-
sible and defeats the entire principle.
The bill in such a form has passed
the senate with 20 votes back of it..
s'he House has amended the bill by
relnserting the original clauses and
VIII pass il in this way, but the SEN
ate will refuse to concur and the re-
suit will finally be no amendment to
the bill.

While the legislature has been
squabbling over one days pay for the
employees of the House, Rep. Straight
has shown that if the legislature
adjourns April 10 as agreed upon.
each member will go hone with $3.50
in his pocket that he didn't earn. The
members are paid $500 for their ser
vice. but are paid at the rate of s.
a day and they get 50 day during
special sessions. At the rate of s.
a day if they adjourn April 10 they
will have earned just $3.50, but will be
paid $500. so Mr.. Straight sets forth
that they'll be taking $3.50 which they
have not earned.
If because of the early adjournment
a special session is called, each mem
Der will receive ten cents a mile for
q round trip from his home and So a
day in addition, which with the regu-
lar expense of running the legisla-
ture will make the cost to the state
something like $4,000. while each
member will receive at least 500 sal
airy in addition 10 say nothing of the
mileage.
