Paris.-The commander OF one of
the French regiments whose soldiers
have distinguished themselves by
many acts of bravery has just taken
a step which is certain to crafty
those who have neither been decorut.

the Day" He has ordered from the
mint large number of medals, de-

whom the medal is given.
This commanders theory, according
to the Figaro, is that all acts of BRAY,
cry not singled out for the special hon.
ors OF the war cross and the Legion
OF Honor should by no means be neg.
lected. He believes that by awarding
these medals he will increase the al.

GEM IN A CHICKENS CRAW
Pennsylvania Woman Found There a
Diamond Worth More Than
One Hundred Dollars.

Colwyn, Pa.-Whether there is a
diamond mine in Philadelphia or In
Delaware county, Mrs Otto Woerner
Of No. so South Third street, Colwyn,
is not sure, but she does know that
the chicken that she purchased from
a Baltimore avenue EAST Lansdowne)
dealer a few days ago was a most
valuable bird, and incidentally proved
the best investment she ever made.
When Mrs. Woerner opened the
chicken and cut open the craw she saw
something sparkle, and on closer ex-
animation was surprised and delighted
to find that it was a pure bIue-white
diamond of the first water.
Having it appraised by an expert,
she was told that it was worth consid-
erably more than one hundred dollars.
Since the announcement of this dis
covery was made the dealer has had
a run on chickens.

COSTS MONEY TO BE PEER
London Society Interested in Seeing u
New Ones viii "Give Up" for
RegaIia.

London.-In these days of war econ.
omy society is interested to see
whether the newly created peers will
go to the expense of purchasing full
regalia of their rank in the peerage.
The principal item in the bill is the
coronet, which the owner may not
have single opportunity of wearing
during the rest of his life.
The market price of coronet OF
1S-carat gold, with jeweled cushion
is about $4,000. A viscount's coronet
is surrounded by 16 small pearls,
while a baron's is set with six large
ones.
Another expensive item is the robe
Of scarlet and ermine, the cost of
which varies from $500 to $3.50, This
is a necessary purchase, as 1t has
to be worn when the new peer makes
his debut in the upper chamber. The
particular rank in the peerage is de-
noted by the number of bars of ermine
which traverse the robe from pack
to front, The stripes of ermine which
appear to divide the mantle are sup,
posed to Indicate that it has been
tom while the wearer was engaged in
mortal combat on the field of battle.
Another $3.50 or more is needed for
the fees OF patent of nobility, and for
the preparation of crests and other ar.
mortal bearings.

FACES MANY PERILs
German Youth, Fleeing War, Has
Exciting Time.
Adalbert krause Reaches Texas After
\ Escaping Death at sea and In
Mexieo-Gets SO for Bale Of
JErVlIla Money. ....

Irs frfL LLLca ysf

Fort Worth, Fex.-2When Adalbert
Krause, eighteen years old, a Ger
man youth, left Berlin just before the
start of the war, hoping to reach the
United States and thus escape mill
tary service, he little dreamed of the
exciting events he would experience
before he attained his goal.
a Krause is industrially, not militariIy,
inclined, but before reaching this coun.
try he faced starvation, was pursued
by German officers, was beaten by
sailors, nearly shipwrecked, escaped
from ship at Tampico and was at.
tackled and robbed by Mexicans. But
Krause never lost hope and finally
reached Ell Paso, a town he never
had heard of in Germany, and only
o few days ago arrived in Fort Worth,
where he wants to become a captain
OF industry and a naturalized Ameri
can citizen.
When Krause left his home in Ber-
lin he first went to Hamburg, where
he played hide and seek with the po-
lice and other officers and between
times tried to get work. Despite rigid
economy Krause soon was reduced to
eight cents, and he was getting des
sperate when he obtained position
as mess boy on board a Hamburg
american line vessel. This ship first
took him to Spanish ports and later
to Tampico, Mex. On the way the
vessel encountered severe storms and
the crew prepared to abandon the
ship. Krause thought his end had
come, but the ship weathered the
gale. Then the seamen began to tseat
Krause roughly, sometimes beating
him.
One night, when the vessel was at
Tampico, Krause babe farewell to the
ship. He could speak no Spanish, and
having little funds he met difficulties
wherever he turned. Finally he got
work at San Luis Potosi in an oil
plant, where he could not understand
the Indifferent and lazy customs of the
Mexican laborers. J.
Once he went to learn why some
poems failed to bring him water for his
boiler from nearby river.
He found the poems sitting on the
bank smoking cigarettes in good old
leisurely Mexican style. The sight
stirred his Teutonic blood and there
was a fight. Krause fought with his
fists, and being 1.-THE and muscular was
getting the better of the argument
when other poems ran up with drawn
knives. .r.' ..-,N =. .2'.. 81 ..u !
Krause fled to his engine house, the
Mcxicans in pursuit. When he boited |
the door they tried to break it down.
hrause poked revolver out of a win /.
dow and threatened to fire If they did !.
not "rausmit," which the poems did
But San Luis Potosi is far from the |
United States, and so Krause began to .
work his way toward Juarez, a dan !
gerous, difficult trip. Part of the way
Krause went on horseback, but sol
der took the animal from him and he
travelled the rest of the distance on
foot.
The German youth was delighted
when he arrived at Juarez with $50
pesos in Villa currency. This made
big, eye-pleasing wad, and Krause
dreamed of the fortune he would start
with it. He crossed to Ell Paso and ex.
changed it for So in American money,
which quite took his breath away.
