German" Her reply was to the eff
both born in places thousands Of
miles from Germany, and with she
herself being, born in America, she
could not be convinced that she was
German. The. most rigid examin'
alton is made when they are passing
over the border, into Denmark, and
here every possible examination is
made.
No Suffering IN Germany.
About. the suffering (which we read
of in the papers,-Miss- Shelton says
Germany is perfectly happy. That
they are well fed. well clothed, and
never in better health. She has
seen nothing of the horrors which
are depicted by the papers, in Ger.
many. But-in BeIgium-all those
things exist. Miss Shelton had a
personal friend, a wonderful baritone
singer, who was given a post with
ten families to guard in Belgium.
The women of those families, bound
him, cut his tongue out, poked his
eyes out, and one by one cut off his
fingers. Such terrible, such inhuman
things as these are being done by the
Belgians. The Russians are also
doing these things. At the begin
ming of the war the Cossacks were
twenty miles over their line in an
other country and enroute back, they
stopped at the homes along the way
and nailed the children to the tables.
She is used to seeing men with no
limbs, no arms, on eyes, no ears, etc.
But she states that Germany will
never run out of men who are ready
and anxious to go in defenserof their
country. "H
There are hundreds of interesting
things which might be told, but1if one
were to talk with Miss Shelton for
a week she could not begin to tell
ALL Miss Shelton expects to leave
Oskaloosa on January IA for New
York, and will sail from there on
January 81, on the Bergeusfjord She
will return over the same route which
she came, going to Norway, through
Christiania, Copenhagen Vienna,
Leipsig, Dresden, Prague, Budapest,
and on to Berlin. Miss Shelton will
keep home in Berlin and after the
war hopes to have home also in
Florence, Italy. tatae
The German schools have never
been closed since the war began. So
far as the business OF the country,
and the educational interests of the
country are concerned, one would
never know that there was a war in
progress. h5l'Nllo aGlo

Kaiser of dog or horse. Bethmann- HoH-
veg. in 1905. was appointed Prussian Home
Secretary, and il was then that his name hrst
became familiar to the man in the street IN
Berlin. Shortly afterward ne was appointed
Assistant Chancellor to Prince Bulow, VINO
was then Chancellor.
1t was during his service as Home Secre-
tarv that Bethmann-Hollweg became largely
converted to all that the most advanced
Prussian militarism stood for Ultimately he
became a far more ardent Pan-German even
than Prince Bulow. In a speech heard the
present Chancellor make at Munich in 1908
he declared that, though Germany was then
happily free of all immediate anxiety so far
as her foreign relations were concerned, her
present and future position as a great power
must ultimately rest on her strong arm, and
though the strength of her arm was greater
than it ever had been it must grow yet
stronger
1t was speech after the Kaiser's own
heart-provocative and Boosting to degree.
II had. as a matter of fact, been prepared
by the Emperor, and it was delivered by the
Kaiser's own order for the special benefit Of
Prince Bulow, who had at that time fallen
out of favor with the Emperor. This speech
marked a most critical juncture in German
affairs. and if ever the whole history of It
comes to be written it will make not only
extraordinarily interesting reading but Will
throw a lurid light on the events that led to
the war.
To man of his temperament and char
acter, once he had conceived an aim or object
as good and desirable one to reach, he
would not hesitate about the means he en-
ployed in reaching it. The thing with him
would be to reach it, if possible; and, if he
did not reach it, then he would regard his
failure philosophically. The human misery
and suffering that his acts might be respon-
sible for would never trouble him jot.
He Is a tremendous force in Germany, but
only because and only while he has behind
him the favor Of the Emperor.

The Chinaman Who Made
All the RumpuS

X ENERAL CHANG HSUN, who
" recently declared himself dictator of
China and overthrow the Republic. is now
surrounded by the Republican troops. His
days are numbered. The Manchu dynasty
which he restored has been superseded
again by the democratic government. The
career of this last of the old schools of
mandarins has been as romantic as it was
meteoric. The Picking Daily News"
printed recently the following characteri-
cation of Chang Hsun:
There is about him strain of the romantic
and heroic that is too frequently absent from
the gray. monotonous character of most mod
ern politicians and statesmen. There is
sonnet thing of the picturesquely barbaric
about the whole man. Ruthlessly severe in
his methods and plain-spoken to the point of
rudeness, General Chang Hsun has the saving
grace of knowledge of his own mind
lie has never hesitated to do what ne
thought fit, he has never troubled 10 justify
his action, and he has never bothered his

Fighting for the
American Ideal

Americans fought for the principle of
no taxation without representation and
heroically sacrificed their blood in order
to perpetuate just cause" said the
commissioner. Owe, wishing to emulate
the characteristics Of Americans and in
spired by their noble example, are fight
ing similar battle. We are tired Of
determinations, of overtaxation, starva-

"The fate of Rumanians in this present
war is narrowing. The families Of those
who have gone to the front are left at
home in poverty and disease. No one
dares TO protest against their treatment
for fear Of Imprisonment. Men and wom-

into prisons and left to die there Ike
rats. The Rumanan intellectuals as well
as the peasants die for no reason other
than being Rumanians. The Rumanian
press was destroyed because it printed
the truth about these suferings, and the
editors were imprisoned for their writings
and utterances. Edicts were issued deny
