WOULD SHIELD DRY STATES.
Senator Dillingham; Proposes al
Amendment to Constitution.

A constitutional amendment designed
to protect dry states has been intro
duced In the Senate by Senator Diliing-
ham Of Vermont.
Instead of prohibiting the sale for bev-
erage purposes of intoxicating liquor in
the United States as the Hobson-Shep-
pard constitutional amendment does. the
Dillingham; amendment merely prohibits
the transportation into any. state for sale
or use for any purpose contrary to the
laws of such state. Its purpose is similar
to the recent Kenyon law passed by Con-
gress. but it would remove all question
as to the validity of the legislation en-
braced in the Kenyon law

German Ambassador Surprised ILL

CHAMPAIGN, ILL.,, June 1S.-Nayor
Dobbins yesterday afternoon revoked the
commission Of Special Policeman Murphy
who shot at the automobile Of Arnbas-
sador Won Bernstorr yesterday. because
the latter's chauffeur refused to obey his
orders, and took away his star and re-
volver No charge was preferred against
the policeman.
When the mayor visited Count Won
Bernstorff to convey his regret at the in
cident, the diplomat assured him that he
understood that the affair was merely the
work of subordinate.
II am surprised. however, said the
ambassador that policemen are allowed
to carry revolvers loaded with ball car
tridges instead of blanks. I appreciate
how disagreeable the incident was to my
good hosts.
Because of the position taken by Count
Won Bernstorff, no state international
apology will be required, according to the
international experts of the university.
Are Highly Indignant.
| officials were highly indignant at the ar
front, and the possibilities OF danger to
the life and limb Of their distinguished
guest.
| Murphys defense was that he was
asked by the city police to see that auto
| mobiles kept on the right side of the
| street and obeyed the speed laws. His
action was repudiated by Chief of Police
Keller, however.
Count Won Bernstorf was the central
| figure of the university commencement,
| When he addressed S53 graduates and
| their friends. The diplomat was greeted
| by the traditional nine "rahs' of the
student body and few present knew that
he had had close call. The counts ad-
dress dealt with the movements in Ger
| many for social and industrial welfare.
| After university senate luncheon in
his honor he left for Chicago.

Flowers Bloom In Fair Grounds.

San Francisco, March with the
cooperation of a big corps Of skilled
landscape gardeners Mother Earth is
doing her share toward preparing the
exposition grounds for the 1913 inter
national celebration. Thousands of
bulbs arc sending up new shoots. and
the shrubs and plants placed in the
ground last fall are taking a fresh
lease of life.
According to the landscape depart
ment. practically 40 per cent Of the
gardening for the exposition is COM
pIeted to date. In fact. the gardeners
are following cose after the carpen-
terS and other worknlen. and Just as
rapidly as the ground is turned over to
them h gardeners are transforming
II int" gardens and lawns. The six
beds in the south gardens have been
planted with hedges Of v%cronicas and
filled with bulbs that will flower dur
ing the entire spring season.
There are at present more than eight
acres of ground that have been con
verified into well kept lawns. The colors
OF d~affodils. tulips. Spanish iris. anem-
ones and California peoples have been
adding to this pretty picture.
