SERIOUS CRISIS is
REPORTED IN GERMANY

Copenhagen, Oct. 11.-A serious
crisis has been caused in Germany by
the attempt of Chancellor Michaelis
and the minister of the navy to use

HOTEL CLARENDON
MAY EXTEND SEASON
TILL END OF APRIL

With gratifying clientele that is
being augmented daily by many who
are coming up from resorts south of
Seabreeze and with an unusually large
number OF season guests planning to
remain longer than their usual time
for going north. indications are that
the Hotel Claredon season will be pro-
longed until the last of April this sea-
son. Instead of the usual custom of
beginning plans for their return north
ward during the first part of April. the
season contingent are with few eX
ceptions. making arrangements to re-
main until the last possible moment.
Although not generally in accordance
with the custom Of the management |
to change the date for the closing of |
the hotel. should conditions warrant !
as now appears almost certain that |
they will, the date for closing will be |
changed TO the last of the month. |
Rather than losing impetus the gale |
ties at the resort since the ST Pat |
rick's ball have gained momentum.
The many charming festivities that
make the resort one of the gavest in
the south during the season have con-
tinUed unabated. Within the past two
weeks notably large gathering from
Palm Beach and Miami have come up
for a SOjOurn at the Clarendon and
with many visitors coming from the
north for a spring visit, the hotel has
seemed at the heighth Of it's season.
Although no definite announcement
has been made regarding the exten
sion of the closing date. it is probable
that this Will come before the end of
the month.

From somewhere he dug up a
