NOVEL TRAP FOR ROBBERS.

Automatic photography of safe rob-
bers at work is declared to have been
perfected by a German inventor. The
invention is based upon the oscilla-
tons of quicksilver, by means of
which an electrical contact is made.
The slightest conclusion or tamper-
ing with the safe or wires will prove
sufficient to complete the circuit and
put the hidden camera in operation.
At the same time the device sets on
a food of light for the picture taking
and starts the burglar alarms ringing.
The robber when caught will be con-
fronted with a snapshot of his own
taking to establish his identity.

KAISER SMILES ON MATCH.

Few if any were surprised when
Emperor William consented to the
betrothal of his fifth son, Prince Os-
car, and Countess Ina Marie Won Bas-
sewitz-Levitzow, maid of honor in the
empress suit and daughter of the
minister of state of the grand duchy
of Mecklenburg-Sch The enthu-
siasm which the romance excited
throughout Germany was not lost
sight of by the kaiser and the cab!-
net, nor did they forget how impor-
tant a factor such a marriage may
become in cenlenting the bond be-
tween the people and the reigning
family. Such was the result of the
two nonroyal marriages in the Eng
fish royal family, that of Queen Vic
toria's daughter, Louise, to the Duke
of Argyll and of King Georges Sis
ter, Louise, to the Duke of Fife.
Prince Oscar is so far removed from
the throne as to count little in the
succession. His four brothers stand
before him IN the direct line and any
sons they might have, or grandsons
even, would be- eligible to the throne
before he would. The crown prince
already has four little boys, and
Prince August William has one. His
mother, the empress, has been ex-
tremely fond of Countess Bassewitz
and has taken the greatest pride in
the beauty and style of this, the only
lady in waiting at her court who
could be called a beauty or who had
taste in dress. In that way the
countess shone like a brilliant lone
star in the armament of the German

Cured during flight from Cologne

SUPPORT Fer UNEMPLOYED.

Insurance against Unemployment is
the burning question in Germany. The
matter has OF late been before the
reichstag, also before the Bavarian,
Saxon and numerous minor state par
liaments; and, in all cases, demands
have been made by the democratic
parties for the state support of the
workmen wEo, to the number of be-
tween 100000 and 100000, are al
ways out of work. The demand is
backed up by several motives. Firstly,
there is the practical motive that
even without Unemployment insnr-
ance the unemployed are supported
by the community. Secondly, it is
asserted that unemployed insurance
has been tested on limited scale in
other European countries and has
proved success. Thirdly, there are
the abstract grounds of reason and
logic, the chief of which reason is
the fright to work." The right to
work" is not new. It was recognized
in England under Queen Elizabeth;
was propounded by Rosseau and
Fourier; was formulated in Germany
by the great Fichte, and was admit
ted more than sixty years ago even
by the reactionary Bismarck. Insur-
ance against unemployment is inter
preted by this school OF economical
thinkers as an alternative realization
of the right to work. The state, if it
is to remain nonsocialistic, cannot
fulfill its obligation to give work to
all. In unemployment periods it can
make work only for limited classes
of workers. 1t can build roads and
dig canals, thus providing employ
ment for unskilled laborers, but it
cannot start temporary silk factories
or steel works in order to provide en-
ployment for skilled labor. That be-
ing so the state must support the un
employed, or at least help to tide
them over months of unemployment

STANDARD OIL VICTORY.

Something closely resembling a
crushing defeat stares the German
government in the face in it's fight to
expel the Standard Oil company from
Germany. Through the proroguing OF
the reichstag by the kaiser, on the
eve of the Whitsuntide holidays, all
bills before the house on which &C.
ton had not been taken automatically
ceased to exist. Among them was
the governments scheme to create
state monopoly in Illuminating oil,
the confessed object of which was
the eviction of Mr.. Rockefeller and
all his works from German territory.
The project, of course, can be brought
in again when the reichstag reassem-
bles for it's next session in November,
but it will have to be presented as a
new bill, pass through all the intri-
cate and tedious committee stages
and be threshed out in detail from A
to z before it will be possible under
the rules to bring the measure to a
vote. AS the original bill has been
hanging fire since autumn, 1924
matter Of nineteen months-there is
no reason why the Standard Oil com:
pany should worry" for at least an
other year and half. The fate of
the bill, which good many people
think has now been buried beyond
hope of resurrection, is bitter dis
appointment to the imperial govern
ment. It was launched on what it
was hoped would prove to be an
angry sea of national indignation over
"the robber baron tactics" of Amer
ica's best hated trust" The back
ers of the scheme thought nothing
would be necessary to carry it through
parliament with rush and a bang
except to paint in suti GENTLY lurid
colors the iniquities of the Standard

RICHARD sTRAUs is FIFTY.

Richard Straus has just passed his
fiftieth birthday and the anniversary
was celebrated in many of the thea
tiers of Berlin by festival reproduce
tons of his operas. The papers were
filled with anecdotes, one of which
shows the remarkable concentration
possessed by the composer. He
arises early and begins composing at
Z a. m. in his working room, above
which his son practices on the piano
several hours a day, while his wife
receives visitors in an adjoining
room. He even complained once that
when his family was absent it was
too quiet to compose. Even while
Herr Strauss is taking walks or Is
engaged in conversation his mind is
busy manufacturing musical ideas,
which he Immediately jots down.
Strauss at fifty is regarded generally
as the worlds leading composer,
while Wagner at the same age was
still battling for recognition. Strauss
also contrasts with Wagner in hav-
ing acquired a fortune through COM
position, result made possible by
his excellent business ability.

TAKE LAND FROM BLACKS.

The reichstag has sustained the CO.
lonial authorities in their recent dis
possession of the negroes at Duala,
the chief port of the German colony
of Kamerun, in Africa, in order to
make a modern sanitary city there.
The protest from the negroes was at
first received in Germany sympathet-
ically, but DR.. Solf, secretary for the
colonies, made such a convincing de-
tense of the proceedings that the
reichstag passed the appropriations
called for by a large majority, only
the Socialists voting against them.
Another phase of the controversy has
arisen. Recently the German colonial
government arrested Rudolph Bell,
chief of the Dualas, on a charge OF
