WHOLE DYNASTY TO LEAVE GER
MANY

Amsterdam, November 22-All the
members of the Hohenzollern dynasty
will leave Germany in the near future,
according to a Frankfort dispatch to
the Rotterdam Courant. Their desti-
nation, it adds, is not yet known.
So far as it is known, the only
members of the Hohenzollern dynasty
who have left Germany are William
Hohenzollern, the former emperor,
and his eldest son, Frederick Will
liam,, the former crown prince. Both
are in Holland. There have been con-
flicting reports regarding the former
German empress, who has been In i'll
health for some time, but the probable
tiles point to her not having left Ger
man territory. The eX-emperor has
five other sons, Eitel Frederick, Adal-
bert, August William, Oscar and Joa-
shin. His one daughter, Victoria
Louise, was married to the Duke of
Brunswick in 1913. A recent dispatch
reported the abdication of the duke.
The former emperor's only brother,
Prince Henry of Prussia, fled from
Kiel hurriedly at the time of the naval
mutiny.

NIGHT SCHOOL may
Be OPENED IN THIS CITY
WOrkmen Of Commercial World Are
Promoting Opening n Night
School in Maysville.

The educational division, composed
of Superintendent Caplinger, of the
city schools, and Superintendent Tur-
nipseed, of the county school; Frank
P. oDonnell and Rev. J. ]. Dickey,
met at the Chamber of Commerce
Thursday afternoon to consider GER
tain educational questions as applied
to Maysville and Mason county.
This committee received word from
the United States Educational Com
missioner Claxton, inquiring as to
whether there had been any co-ordina-
ton of effort between the public
schools and Chamber of Commerce.
Superintendent Caplinger informed
him that on several occasions they
had co-operated in improving the edu-
cational conditions and at present he
was serving as chairman of the edu-
cational division of this organization
and that the educational division had
been considering some means to
bridge the chasm existing be-
tween the period when the student fin
ishes high school and enters the COM
mercial or industrial world.
At the meeting held recently a num-
Der of requests for a night schoo
we're considered and a chairman o.
each city precinct was appointed tt
make a survey of the situation il
their precinct, to find if the demand
justifies night course for CONNER
cial students.
These chairmen met with the educa
tional division Thursday Afternoon
and formulated plans for the survey
They will have workers make house
to house, canvass next week and OBJ
tain the desired information.
If there appears a sufficient demand
for night course it will be presented
to the board of education at the mex
meeting.
