 When reading dispatches about the progress of the revolution in Ger many for the next few weeks, there fore it will be important to watch not one center, but about six; Berlin, the capital of Prussia; Hamburg and Bremen, the two great northern sea- ports which seem just now to be pro- nouncedly Bolshevik in hue; Munich, the capital of Bavaria; Dresden, the capital of SaXony; Karlsruhe, the capital of Baden. and Stuttgart, the capital of Wurttemberg.
 If for example, 8 similar social revolution were to break out in the United States, the news that New New York, Chicago and Washington were in the hands of the Bolshevik forces would not not signify until we could learn the complexion of such diverse places as Buffalo, New Or leans and Seattle.
 This section0lism of Germany in revolution makes both for confusion and for stability; for confusion in the short term, and for stability in the long run For while BolshevilI Ham burg and Bremen may be held back by Republican Bavaria or Ba- den, the republicans will, in turn, be forced along more radical paths by the momentum of the extremists.

Deeds CT New England Man, II Truly

one time a New England whaler. For
him are named Smylie channel and
Smylietown, which may be seen on the
chart. He afterward became United
States consul. Strange stories of his
doings survive and are told on the
Falkland islands to this day. A late
British governor of the islands col
lected some of the stories, but l can
not learn that they were published.
One was TO the effect that our state
department decided to remove him
from office and sent n successor, who,
when he called to present his creden-
tails and demand the seal, was kicked
out by the captain. The United States
government had finally to send war
ship TO remove Smylie.
"Another story is that Captain Smy-
lie was publicly flogged by order of
the British governor for some mis-
doing. As the captain later sailed
away he planted two shots from his
ships small gun into the governors
residence. Returning after a six
months cruise, he sent letter of

he had discovered n wreck and recov-
cred some fine tapestries and furnl-

might wish; If he would come on
board he might have his choice of
them. The governor came on board
