Der OF the Reichstag, who at the out
break OF the war fled TO France, in a
Paris paper tells Of the strange and
strong admiration for Napoleon which
exists in Germany.
"A short time before the war" he
writes, "a Prussian general. a native Of
the province OF Hanover, told me how
he had been surprised at the great
number OF statues OF Napoleon he had
found in the homes of the peasants OF
Saxony. When he asked these peasants
why they had these images Of the great
French emperor at their houses. the re-
ply was almost invariably something
like this:
why should we not honor the mem
ory OF that man who did US nothing
but good. when he delivered US from
the tyranny OF Incapable and cruel
princelings. gave us good. humane laws
and equality before the law. and final
" inaugurated an administration which
abolished seem Of the most crying
abuses
German admiration of Napoleon has
even increased during the present war.
The most ardent pan Germanists are
clamoring for a revision Of the Judg
ment which German historians have
rendered on Napoleon"

From Russia Back to Ca

Berne. Switzerland. June 1T.-AlI
Russian Jews and political fugitives
who had found an asylum in Italy are
to be surrendered into the hands OF the
car.
According to dispatches from Rome
the Italian government has concluded a
secret treaty with Russia under which
both countries pledge themselves to
give up all political and other fugitives.
The Russians in Italy. some OF whom
have escaped from Siberia are to be
sent to France where they will be en-
rolled in the Russian regiments recently
landed in 1larseilles.
As the men cannot be trained in
France and some Of them are over mill.
tary age. the commander OF the expedf-
ton will return them TO Russia. where
they will either be thrown into prison
as deserters. or returned to Siberia
A strong protest against this treaty
has been raised in the Italian parliament
by the socialists and the reform party.
but prime minister Salandra replied
that Russia. like Italy, needed every man
for the army and that II was not the
duty Of the Italian government TO shield
political criminals who conspired
against an allied nation.

 The above is a summary Of the bas. ket ball game Saturday evening at the A. B. Hall between the A. B.. team and the Jupeau High School. The game was witnessed by Q good sized crowd of basket ball fans and was hummer from start to finish.
 The first half started with rush and the A.

They were able to run the score up to 20 when the whistle spoiled their chances of winning the game.
 It is the prediction of those who witnessed the contest that the High School would have tied the score with 6 few minutes more to play, but their brace came too late.
 numerous fouls were called on both sides and many more were made that were not seen by Pat Scott, referee. It is impossible for one man to sec everything which takes place on the floor and many of the fouls escaped notice, but altogether the game was splendidly handled.
 The audience started to gather a long time before the game and by the time the teams were on the floor. had practiced, and were ready to play the crowd was worked up to a high pitch. As soon as the play started the crowd started to root for the re. s2ective teams, but soon quieted down It looked Ike a walk away for the A.
