DUEL Def IS ORDERED
: BY court OF HONOR"
U|timatum to German Officer
Result of Scandal in East
ern Prussia.
Correspondence Of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence of The Star.
BERLIN, September II, 1912.
Capt. kammler. military officer of
Rybnk. in eastern Prussia, has been
ordered by his court of honor" to chal-
lenge Judge KNITTED to a duel.
This is one Of the gravest scandals of
recent years in connection with the obi
cation resting on officers to fight duels.
The story briefly, is as follows: During
the holly contested general election OF
last winter the Poles and German Catho-
lies of the constituency where the two
men live agreed to support a Pole against
the conservative candidate. KNITTED. who
is German. was in earlier life. before he
devoted himself to law, an officer and on
leaving the service he became an officer
of the reserve.
AS Catholic he supported his party IS
candidate (the Pole), and as the Poles OF
that district are all anti-German and re-
garded as unpatriotic. KNITTED was shown
marked disfavor by leaders of German
society in his district.
Knitted Practically Boycotted.
Practically. he was boycotted, and in
consequence of the intrigues of Capt.
kammler, who occupied an important
military post. he was removed from the
reserve to the landwehr, step which
KNITTED rightly regarded as sort Of mill
tary degradation.
Knitted made no secret of his indigna-
ton, and openly accused certain officers
and others of malicious intrigue. He
openly said that Kammler, his chief an
tagonist, was nothing better than a ma
hcious imbecile. An action was taken

and the court, after prolonged trial, &C.

proved every allegation he had made.
and that as far as kammler was con-

BEARS COMRADE ON BACK
FROM THE MAINE WOODS
seventeen-Year-old Boys Life Saved
by Heroism Of School
-
Professor.

PHILADELPHIA, September 23.-Prof.
Walter s. Cowing Of tho Friends School
of this city has arrived home. bringing
with him Charles Claxton, jr., the seven
teen-year-old son of DR.. Charles .Claxton,
a well known physician Of Germantown.
1t was due to the heroic work of Prof.
Cowing that the youthful companion who
accompanied him on . most remark able
trip to the wilds q; Maine s.still alive.
The teacher and party Of German
town schooboys are accustomed to
spend their vacation every year at a
Maine lumber camp. This season camp
broke the last week in August. and Cow
Ing and Claxton planned to remain and
make a tour Of exploration of the woods
along the st. Johns river.
Lumberman's Chart as Guide.
The territory is sparsely inhabited. and
with only lumberman's chart to guide
them they set out on what they ex-
pected would be q trip Of much interest
and perhaps some adventure. They car
ried canoe and provisions to last a
month, but after they had progressed
for five days they became lost in the
wilderness, and, with continual rains,
they were compelled to spend most Of
the days and nights in water that ex-
tended above their knees.
No such trip had been expected. and
Claxton became i'll. He was threatened
with pneumonia and at times it seemed
his fever had reached q stage that bor-
dered on delir1um. Young Claxton Is es-
pecially large for bis age, standing 6
feet 4 inches, and when in health he
weighs close to $50 pounds.
Prof. Cowfng had no resource but to
try and seek civilization. With his youth
full companion on his back. he abandoned
the canoe and started for the nearest
railroad station that he might be able to
find. Nights came and the days passed
and still they trudged on. hoping that
each morning would find them nearer as
sistance. For eighteen days this awful
journey progressed without assistance of
any kind and without coming in contact
with any individuals who might give them

cerned. the court had abundant evidence
that he was malicious.
1t is this Kammler who is now asked
by his court Of honor" to challenge
knittel-to challenge the man who has
been rehabilitated and justified by court
of justice. In the opinion of the military
court of honor. the only way in which
kammler can cleanse his besmirched
honor" is either to shoot KNITTED or be
shot by him.

JUSTICE LAND.

Some time ago the Gazette had &C.
casion to endorse the candidacy of Judge
Alfred ID. Land to succeed himself as AS
sociate Justice of the Supreme Court and
to express the hope that he would re-
ceive the practically unanimous vote of
this parish. Since that time Judge Wat
kins of Bienville parish has announced
his candidacy for the place in opposition
to Judge Land, and we now renew the
expression OF our hope and expectancy
that the vote of Tensas will be cast for
the latter. In so doing we in no way
reflect upon Judge Watkins, who was
at one time a member of the Court OF
Appeals for this Circuit, and who is a
lawyer of ability and a man and citi.
zen of high character. We place our
advocacy of Judge Land upon the ground
that he is tried and experienced Judge
who has record of achievement on In,
Supreme Bench which entitle him to /
continuance in Office. We believe tina
occupants of the higher judicial office
should be retained in office so long a
they are worthy and that frequent change
In that character of office are bad for tn,
public service. Judge Land is able; he i
faithful; he is experienced. He shout,
succeed himself.

PRESIDENT OF THE LEvEE BOARD

No office in the Fifth Levee District is
OF more importance to the people than
that OF the President of the Levee Board
now ably filled by J. t. Mcclellan, OF
Madison parish, and it is to be hoped
that Governor Hall will not fail to reap
point Mr.. Mcclellan when he comes to
appoint the new Levee Board.
Experience is probably the greatest
factor needed in levee work and expert.
ence can only be gained by long service.
During his long service as member and
President of the Board, Mr.. Mcclellan
has gained that experience with levet
construction and the physical condition
OF our long lines which is possessed by
no other man in the District and for this
reason no other man is qualified to take
his place.
Added to the qualification above ex.
pressed Mr.. Mcclellan is man of fin,
intelligence and good judgment and il
goes without saying of the highest per
sonal character. He has served us faith
fully and arduously. 1t would be ca
rlamity to lose him.
