The mad king" of Bavaria,
about 20 years of age at the time
of his death, startled Europe by
his ecentricities before he was de-
clared incapable of ruling on mo-
vember 5, 1913, and was succeed-
ed by his cousin, King Ludwig
III.
He had nominally succeeded his
brother, King Ludwig III, in 1886,
when Ludwig committed suicide
by throwing himself into a lake
during a fit of insanity. Ills
uncle, the Regent Luitpold, was,
however, the real ruler.
During the Franco-Prussian
war Otto first showed symptoms
of insanity when he called out, q
squad of cavalry to charge
straight at a stone wall.
The stone wall, he said, was a
body of French infantry. -.
Several years ago the mad
king" was imprisoned In the
Fuerstenrid castle. Though in
the midst of rich furnishings, he
is reported to have lived like a
savage, refusing to have his hair
or nails cut and avoiding water
and soap.
He was passionately fond OF
grand opera. summoned we'll
known singers to his castle prison
and often spent days listening to
operas.

united with him.

He has sent out letters to every
candidate for legislature in Pierce

Mayor Fawcett has always been
known as Tacoma's fighting may
or.
But he has been lonesome dur
ing the past year because he
didn't have any big fight to
handle. Municipal affairs sailed
along pretty smoothly.
In the public service commits
sion, however, Tacoma's mayor
has suddenly found fight. And
he is making 1t a big fight. 1t
will be one of the greatest of his
career, he thinks.
y. II. & P.'s Big Request.
Ever since the legislature Great
ed this commission, destined to
act as jury on all problems be-
tween the public service corpora
lions and the people, Fawcett has
eyed the board askance. He
found that the commission had
an in,ense power to regulate rates
and that the regulation" often
meant increased prices for the
people.
And now the Tacoma Railway
q Power Co. comes along with a
petition asking the public service
, commission to relieve 1t Of all OF
the charges which 1t promised to
pay the city for use of Tacoma's
streets.
IT'S a big request, but the COM
mission, sitting In its offices in
the capitol building at Olympia,
has the power to grant 1t.
Fears 1O-Cent Fare.
Mayor Fawcett isn't so afraid
that the commission will permit
the II. r. & p. Co. to slice out of
its contracts. as he is afraid that

pie increase their fare to 10 cents

ON THE JOB

IA EOPLE are often disposed
~ to complain when trains
= are late or the service
blockaded whereas if they
knew the difficulties encoun-
tered by railroad men they
would be more considerate.
When storms and floods
abound it is hard to keep the
service uninterrupted and a
rough and ready efficiency is
demanded in order to meet en-
ergencies.
And this was never better
illustrated than in a little story
in Harper's Magazine:
In Montana a railway bridge
had been destroyed by fire, and
it was necessary to replace it.
The bridge engineer and his
staff were ordered in haste to
the place. Two days later
came the superintendent of the
division. Alighting from his
private car, he encountered the
old master bridge builder.

ent, and the words quivered
with energy, 81 want this job

that there is little need to think of
the future.
Apart from the injury that such a
theory does to the individual. it also
works a great harm on the country
itself because the fundamental
strength of any nation or community
rests upon the thrift and savings Of
its people
Therefore, the campaign Of the
American Bankers Association is a
most useful one and banks in all
PARTS of the country are actively CO.
operating to encourage the idea Of
saving money and also to teach the
importance Of depositing money saw
ed in a bank and the danger of at
tempting to hoard it IN private hiding
places where it is continuously expos
ed to danger from some cause or
other.
Another important phase of the
situation is the fact that the great
saving and lending nations of Europe
are now no longer lenders of money
and in fact are calling in their loans
to take care of their own vast expen-
ditures at home and seeking to Dor.
row money here. Therefore, we are
face to face with the necessity for
creating a reservoir of capital from
which to meet the strain of financing
