NOVEL FORM OF SUBSIDY.

The German military authorities
have adopted novel form of the sub
sidy principle as preparation for the
next war. Initiating the example of
those countries that substitute steam
ships in order to convert them into
naval vessels in times of war, the
German war Office has for more than
a year been paying subsidies on heavy
automobile trucks, which the army
will take over by requisition as soon
as war breaks out, so far as they
may be needed. The aim of the au-
thorities, however. goes much farther
than merely to have certain number
OF such trucks at hand which may
be requisitionei; they hope to get
them so generally introduced that the
armies can find them anywhere in suf-
ficient quantities for moving military
supplies. The system is to pay the
subsidy to the manufacturer at the
time that he sells the machine to a
person buying it for his own use. Ali
the leading German automobile build
ing companies are now putting such
subsidized drays upon the market

the bones must have been those Of an in
habitant Of this country hundreds and
hundreds OF years before white people
came here. He bases his opinion on the
fact that every particle Of animal mat
ter had disappeared from the compost
ton Of the bones, leaving nothing but
the lime. He compared them with the
bones taken from the mounds near
Schell's and said that the latter, tho they
were much older than white life in Min
nesota, still bore the gloss of bone that
has not been dead long enough for all the
animal matter to have disappeared. It
was supposed when the skeletons were
found in the mounds that they must have
antedated white settlement at least a
couple Of hundred years and that would
make the bones in the present find, he
estimated, at least one thousand years
old.
Another reason for thinking that the
bones were those of a very early inhabi-
tant of America was it's location in the
gravel that apparently forms part Of
what was once an island in the river that
flowed between the height Of land along
the present summit Avenue and the pres
ent bed OF the Minnesota. . The remains
were found just opposite the new Union
Hospital and the land on which this build
ing is being erected was, without doubt,
part of anisland in the days following the
great glacier. The body was found in
the ledge on the west side of Broadway,
apparently having been buried on the
bank of the east fork of the river.
Because of the breaking up of the soil
about the skeleton by the plows it was
impossible to form any conclusion as to
whether the man had been buried there
by his fellow humans or whether he had
died there alone. 1t was usual with the
Indians in this section to bury their dead
in a sitting posture but that could not be
ascertained in this case. When the In
dian skeletons were found in the mounds
hereabouts they were all seated about
the center of the pit in sort of council
ring. This solitary skeleton would in
dictate solitary death, possibly that of
a hunter far from his tribe.
Accompanying the bones were found
some flint arrow heads and an Indian
instrument known as the 'sdesher." It
was made of native copper and had been
hardened, probably by the process known
to the Indians of heating and beating
repeatedly. The fesher was of shape
similar to housewives chopping knife,
with rounded blade and hooked points
to fasten into wooden handle. Accord
ing to Mr.. Juni, the instrument was
rather more ingeniously fashioned than
the common run of Indian tool and the
arrow heads were exceedingly good ones.
The name ''fesher" is given the tool
because it was used by the Indian to
scrape the skins from the flesh he wished
to cure.
To Judge from the size OF the bones, the
man was, in life, of large stature. The
bones were those of a mature person. The

MOVIES AID MARkMANsHlP.

The moving picture has been turned
to account by the German army and
it is likely that portion of the sol
diers' rifle range work will hereafter
be done with moving pictures for tar
gets. A test of the new continuance
at the Doeberitz range gave good re-
suits and the emperor, who Witnessed
the tests and himself fired a number
of shots, was pleased with the inno-
walton. Long rolls of paper replacf.
the usual target and on them appear
marching soldiers, cavalrymen, artil-
lery in full gallop, cycle troops and
other moving objects. The instant a
bullet strikes the paper the spot of
impact is brilliantly lighted and the
movement of the continuance is ar.
rested for nearly second. giving an
opportunity to see the full effect of
the shot.

kaiser, Liman Indirectly gives the
kaiser some, hard raps. He says: 1t
is an easily observable and certain
fact that the crown prince hates Inn
moderate and pompous representa-
ton and that in contrast to his i'm
perial father he places himself as lit
tie as possible before the footlights OF
the public. AS kaiser, this man of
sincere and thorough simplicity will
never take the stand that the great
ness and glory of nation are to be
judged and valued by the number and
pomp of festivities, by rhetorical ut
terances or brilliancy of decorations
and ornamentations"

PRAISES CROWN PRINCE. !

4 u ! = ii Il . /
That the future kaiser of Germany
is frank and open young man of
strong personality, wholly without af-
fectation or conceit, democratic in his
ways, straightforward in his manners,
simple in his tastes. boyishly fond of
sport and harmless amusements as
relaxation from work and duty-a
man who insists upon being himself
and not modelling his personality
after anyone else, a man who dislikes
expressive pomp and who will not att
tempt to be master and judge in ev-5

BERLIN FEELS sTR,NGehcY.

The population of Greater Berlin is
growing at slower rate since the
present period of business depression
set in. It increased last year by only
$4,000, whereas the gain had been
1O8,100 in 1912, and 10000 for 1911.
Berlin itself actually lost population
in 1913 for the first time in many
years. The reduction was about &c.
900. whereas the previous rate of gain
had been about 10000 a year. That
the change in prosperity was the
cause Of this movement in population
is evident from the fact that the num-
Der of concerns in Greater Berlin en-
ploying as many as twenty-five per-
sons was reduced in 1913 by $4,000.

KAISER ON BRITISH SHIP.

The German emperor recently Wis
tied the British flagship of the Sec
ond battle squadron at Kiel, the King
George ", on which his flag as ad.
miral of the fleet was hoisted. Vice
Admiral Sir George Warrender, com.
mander of the squadron, outranked
by the emperor in the latters capac-
ity as British admiral. transferred
his own flag to the Centurion. The
emperor remained an hour on board
the flagship, during which time he
was nominally in supreme command
of the British fleet.

FIGHT cEhsoRING OF FILMS.

Moving picture film manufacturers,
including the foreign companies do
ing business in Prussia, have struck
against an increase in censorship fees
and have declined to offer any more
films for inspection by the censor.
Manufacturers say the increase is 80
great that it will ruin their business.
One company says It would have to
pay an additional $4,000 year. The
foreign companies will appeal in the
matter to the American, French and
Italian ambassadors.

world, met tragic death in what is
known as the Meyerling tragedy, the
result of an uncountenanced love for
a young baroness. The mystery OF
the shooting at Meyerling lodge, in
which both the baroness and the
crown prince were killed, never has
been cleared.

moved the, first choice as an heir to
Francis Joseph fell to his brother,
the Archduke Carl Ludwig, but he
already was an old man and he de.

est son, Francis Ferdinand. The title
of heir never was off1cially conferred
upon Francis Ferdinand, but from his
twenty-eighth year his training fol
the throne was carried on.
Francis Ferdinand had very thor.
ough military training, extending over
twenty years, and in 1891 he was
made a general. He reorganized the
general staff of the Austro- Hungary
army with such success as to excite
the admiration of all Europe. AS a
hobby he took up locomotive engi
neering and received diploma as a
full fledged railroad engineer. He
was said to enjoy nothing so much as
running an engine.
