HAVE ! WON
IRON CROSSE
First Words of Emden Cruiser
Who After Wanderings Ar
rives at Damascus.

Damascus, Seria, via London, May
IA, 9:55 a. m.--Lieutenant Won Muecke
and landing party from the German
cruiser Emden which escaped when
their ship was sunk in the Indian
ocean on November 10 have arrived
here after six months of adventurous
wandering. There are fifty men in
the party.
"Have won the Iron Cross?" was
the first question asked by Lieutenant
Won Muecke.
He and the sailors in his command
were delighted when told they were
regarded in Germany as heroes and
they a. have been awarded the covet.
ed cross. The lieutenant declared all
he wanted now was to get a command
in the North sea.
Won Muecke and the remnant of the
Emden's crew were reported to have
escaped from allied patrol ships and
piloted the schooner Aisha, on which
they escaped from Cocos Island safely
into the Arabian harbor of Lidd on
March ~. They reached Hoderida,
Arabia, on February 5 They probably
trave.ed by rail most of the distance
from Lidd (Jidda?) to Damascus.

TIED TO BULL
Action Started Against Man for
Tying Wash Boiler to Bulls
Tail.

Devils Lake, n d., May 14.-The
prize bull story Of the northwest nd
possibly the world, for all anyone
knows, came to light here with the
arrest of Leonard Scharf, a WE'LL
known resident of Cato township, On
complaint of Herman Kick, who
charges that in May, 1913, Scharf tied
wash boiler to the tail of bull
owned by him, started the animal
across country on journey which
was marked by a distinct accelera.
ton of movement every jmmp the
bull took. Tying cans to the tails Of
stray dogs is recognized as rather
rude prank which has been passing in
favor during the recent years. But
attaching wash boilers to the extrem-
ity of more, or less spirited bulls is
something which has never before
been tried, so far as can be ascertain
ed. Klick insists that his animal suf
fered great anguish and pain; that he
broke fences and records and other
wise behaved in a manner whica
would warrant an opening of the
purse strings by Scharf and subse.
quent settlement.
To make the criminal action still
more odd is the fact that the incident
occurred just within few days OF
two year ago. During that period
Kick has endeavored to secure set.
tlement. With only a week left in
which to come within the two-year
time limit to secure warrant, Klick
decided to take action. June is the
date set for the hearing.
