OF DIAMONDS
AND AUTOMOBILES
AMONG CATCHES Of
IRISH FISHERMEN
Salvage From Torpe-
decd Ships Giving
Them Fortunes

Base American Motillas in British
Waters, Nov. 14.-Irish fishermen
along the coasts where the U.boats
operate, have made some remarkable
catches during the past year. The
story Of the fisherman who found q
1900 box Of diamonds from the
Lusitania in his nets one day, and
whose honesty in returning them to
their rightful owners was rewarded
by a check for $1,000, Is we'll known.
There Is another fisherman who came
home from a fishing expedition with
a fine new American automobile lash
ed to the deck of his little trawler.
There are hundreds of fishermen who
have made modest fortunes out OF
salvage of one kind or another.
Wheat, flour and coal salvage are
all profitable businesses in the coast
towns nowadays.
The story Of the man who came
home from the sea with a brand
new automobile is a household favor
ite in the Irish ports. Accompanied
by his o he was mackerel fishing
when he was aroused by the report
of an explosion. On the horizon a
cargo steamer from America was set.
Ting by the stern. 1t had been tor
pedoed. The fishermen headed for
1t and soon met the captain and
crew in two open boats. She's
loaded with American automobiles,
you might get one before she goes
under" said the skipper jokingly as
he and his shipmates passed on to-
ward shore.
The torpedoed ship was still we'll
above water when the fisherman
came alongside. He at once sent his
son on board to look around. The
latter found the hold full of automo-
biles. Run n out through this
gangway," directed the father. With
the aid of some tackle the machine
was dropped into the fishing vessel.
A few moments later as the trawler
steamed away the ship disappear.
ed. The fisherman with an auto.
mobile is now the envy of his Will
age.
Many torpedoed vessels manage to
reach shore where they are usually
pounded to pieces on the rocks. But
before the cargo is lost forever peo-
pie come from miles around to sal
wage it. Anything that will float Is
used and everyone helps himself.
Men. women and children attack
cargo and ship, removing brass tit.
tings and anything else of value. ;
Flour and canned meats. fruits and
form the larger portion
Of the salvaged articles.
One village has had the good for
to have a couple of foodships
bring up on its very doorstep. Most
Of the ships, Of course, go down at
sea. But this does not d~ishearten

KINGS vs. PEOPLE NOW WORLDWIDE ISSUE
ALL ROYALTY UNITES IN LAST STAND -
CHARLES EDWARD RUSSELL

Washington, March 2O.-The kings
of the earth cOnspire to keep monar-
chy still throned upon the worlds
brain. The people of the earth arise
and kick all these schemes and de-
vices into forgotten fragments.
One of the most colossal of these
astute plOttings went to pieces when
the Russian people got tired Of the
fantastic yoke of the king business
and cast the poisonous thing far
from them.
Ever since that great day in July,
1889, when the Bastile fell in Paris,
there has been a royal trade union
to keep the kings on their jobs.
Whatever their countries might be
forced to do, or seem to do, after
that, all the kings of Europe have
been bound together by a secret al
lance and the ritual of their trade
union.
One way to promote trade inter
ests and keep the jobs was to link
up the thrones by carefully made
Llcll lld5CS.
Hence the German rulers, having
an oversuppIy Of princeling parasites
on hand, started in early upon de-
iberate fixed policy to Germanize
Europe and keep it faithful to the
worn out fantasy of mOnaTchism.
After a century of that policy the
result is seen in the fact that every
king in Europe is either a German
or has much German blood in his
veins.
Wherever. an heir to a throne has
been sighted as approaching the
manageable age a German has been
picked out for a cOnsOTt.
To mention only a few of the
achievements the king of England is
a German. For generations German
has been the household language Of
the British royal family. Queen Vic
tOria spoke English with a marked

guage OF the country he ruled.
Three members of the British
royal family are now bearing arms
against Great Britain because they
are German princes as well as British
and their German allegiance natur-
ally seems first to them.
The queen of Belgium is a Ger
man. The queen Of Holland is of
German descent and is married to a
German. The poor, little man just
taken by the sCruff and lifted from
the throne Of Russia is seven-eighths
German. His empress, who had to
be hidden from the indignant Rus
sian pOpUlace, was one of the vast
army of German princesses that have
been distributed about Europe. The
king Of Italy is largely German. The
king of Spain is one Of the big-jawed
Hapsburgs. The queen of Greece is
the kaiseT's sister.
To 90 the work of reaction, uphold
German influence and help along the
great work of Germanizing every
thing, the female of this species was
far more deadly than the male.
1t was the German queen of Greece
that ruined that country in the inter-
est of Germany She kept Greece
from observing its treaty with Ser
bia; kept it from its obvious policy,
which was to join the allies, and
finally drove its king to plunge it into
its present state of pitiable wreck
age. There is a very ugly story
afOat in Europe about the means she
used to force the king to commit
these historic blUndeTs. Maybe it
isn't true. But anyway she had her
will, her grim Teutonic will
