Washington, March 2S.--Not many more hours remain for the German merchant raiding cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedfieb to hold her status in American refuge at Newport News. Government officials re- main silent as to the time given the ves- sel to make repairs, but 1t is lnowi, the time limit has almost expired, and cap- tain Thierchens either must dash soon ment of his ship for the remainder of the European war

Reports arc current that the Ger man government has giyeu notice of such an intention.
 In view of the fact that British and French warships are reported outside the three mile limit off the Virginia capes. 1t deemed 1t essential to have means of en- forcing neutrality within the waters of American jusidcition.
 To Patrol Border
 While it is not believed that British or French ships would violate neutrality by coming inside the three-mlle limit to at tack the Eitel Friedrich as she left, 1t Is said to have been regarded as necessary for this government to provide means for patrolling the border waters off the Vir- ginia coast to meet any possible emer- gencies. On leaving Newport News the Eitel could remain in coastal waters within the three-lnile limit. proceeding up or down the coast until 24 hours after receipt of notice from the American government to depart. To. see that neutrality regula- tions arc not violated in this regard Is advanced here as one Of the reasons for sending the Alabama to Hampton Roads
 The Alabama will leave Philadelphia to- morrow, arriving at Hampton Roads Tuesday. This is regarded here as ai. indication that the Eitel's' time limit does not expire before Tuesday.

The Voters League has Issued ITS
criticism Of the recent general as
sembly and how each member Of the
house voted on the more important
matters. The reports cites many good
measures that were enacted, but de-
clares that whenever politics entered
the action OF the assembly was not
pra1seworthy. Lobbying by men high
in party councils Is condemned as i'm
proper and the practice of sInotherfng
bills in committee is criticised. The
failure to act upon the road situation
Is condemned, and the report blames
the shortcomings Of the assembly upon
the general inferiority of the MEM
bers. The report gives record of men,

interest are selected:

Shakespeare and cervantes.

April 8, besides being the festival OF
England's national saint, is also the
anniversary of the death of both
Shakespeare and Cervantes. But
though both Shakespeare and Cervan-
ties died on April %, 1916, there was
actually an interval of ten days be-
tween the two deaths. The explana-
ton is that in 1916 England was still
using the Julian Calendar which in
Roman Catholic countries had been
superseded by the Gregorian Calendar
in 1882. Cervantes died on a Satur-
day; Shakespeare died on the Tues
day falling ten days later.-Pall Mall
