Ex-Kaiser Receives
+ Flowers and Dainties
From Friends Daily

Amerongen, Holland, Nov. H.
The former emperor went for a
drive this afternoon with his host,
Count Won Bentinrk, accompanied
by his usual police guard.
He daily receives flowers and
dainties from friends, but as often
letters or postcards are delivered
at the castle addressed William

ers express hatred or contempt
The missives probably are carefully
withheld from the one-time emper-
or.
German inmates of the Wolfhazen
internment camp recently came 10
blows over the former emperor's
pc trait.
Because of French and British
newspaper criticism the Handles
blad demands that the Dutch govern
ment define exactly the former en-
peror's position and the extent of
his liberty of movement here, as
nothing official so far has been made
public, except that Count Won Ben
timex, at the governments request,
extended his hospitality to the
refugee.
As regards Frederick Hohenzol-
lern, the former crown prince, the
paper says he undoubtedly Is a
military person and has been intern
ed as such.

Arbitrator Fixes Date
For Hearing on Packing
House Workers Demand

Chicago, Nov. 27.-The demand
of nearly $4,000 employees at the Chi
cagoy Union Stock Yards packing
plants for a Is cents an hour wage
increase was set for hearing Decem-
Der a by Judge Samuel Alschuler, ar
bitrator under the "war working
agreement" entered into last Decem-
Der by the packers and employees.
The new demand, which means an
increase ranging from 10 to 50 per
cent day varying according to
class of employment, not only af-
fects the employees in Chicago bat
also those in plants operated by the
Big Five" packers in other cities.
"The principle grounds fc the re-
quest for a general increase in wages
is the increase in the cost of liv-
ing since the war working agree
ment under which the employees were
given $l.45 a day advance was en-
tered into" said Francis J. Heney,
counsel representing the IS EN-
ployes' unions operating in the pack
ing plants and in the stock yards
The question of women workers
receiving the same pay as men for
the same work will also come up at
the hearing.

MUNICH CALM
DURING PERIOD
OF REVOLUTION
Bavarians Turned Against
Government by Loss of
War and Resistance of
King to Reforms. \

Paris, Nov. 27.-The revolution in
Bavaria has not brought about much
change in Munich. according to a
special dispatch from that city to
the Petit Parisien, and the state ma
chinery continues to run almost nor
mally.
Everyone in Bavaria is discussing
the revolution, but it is a calm dis
cussion Of an unforeseen compiled
ton which has to be settled in the
best way. The movement in Ba-
varia, the correspondent declares. is
completely independent of the other
movements in Germany. His resist
ance to democratic and social re-
forms lost King Ludwig all the pop
ularity he enjoyed when he was re-
gent of Bavaria and before he be-
came king. The conviction that the
war was lost completely, turned
the people against the government
and for some time before the revolt
the situation in Bavaria had been
serious.
An election to replace Deputy
Woolmar, who resigned from the
Reichstag, then came up. The ma
jority socialists brought forward
Herr Auer and the minority social
lists Kurt Eisner. The political CAM
paign was the spark which set off
the mine. Added to this the ques-
ton of rehabilitation became urg-
ent and the government measures to
deal with it were ineffective.
Eisner, the Petit Parisien cores
pondent continues, feared that the
demobilized masses of Germans and
Austro-Hungarians in the neighbour
ing countries would bring about
chaotic situation in Bavaria. He de-
cided on quick action and organized
resistance against dangers likely to
favor the development of bolshe-
vism. There are several versions of
the beginning of the decisive phase
of the crisis, says the correspondent,
but the most reliable seems to show
that it came from a carefully elab-
prated plan prepared by Eisner.
Louis Gandorfer, blind peasant
with great influence. undertook to
raise the peasantry against the king,
but to induce them to continue feed
Ing the capital.
At present the majority socialists
and bourgeoisie parties are prepar-
ing for the elections TO the national
assembly, which will be held soon.
The result of the elections. the cor
respondent declares. will have de-
risive influence, which will not be
confined to Bavaria.

AMERICANS IN
RUSSIA BATTLE
IN SNOW and ICE
Some of Hardest Fighting is
Met on Northern Front;
Reds Try 0ratory on
Yankees.

Archangel, Nov. 27,-(By Asso-
ciated Press.)-In log huts and
wind shelters made of birch
boughs, American troops are hold
ing the line against the bolsheviki
on the middle sector of the north
ern front in the region of Kadish.
After 10 weeks of fighting in swamps
and thick underground, the Amer
leans now are showed in and have
bivouacked along an ice filled
stream on the outside of which are
the camp fires of the enemy.
Under British command and with
British forces aiding them, the
American infantrymen on this Sec
tor probably have had more fighting
and more hardships than other
American units in Russia. The force
has been operating between The
Dvina river and the Vologda rail-
road. The roads have been in bad
condition and the only means of
transporting supplies to a greater
part of the front has been wheel
barrow-shaped carts drawn by Rus
sian ponies.
"Oratorical Artillery"
The bolsheviki at times try the
force of their "oratorical artillery"
on the Americans. On two nights
during the last week English speak
ing bolsheviki appeared in No
Mans land, made speeches urging
the Americans not to fight. Great
red banners printed in English also
are strung along the enemy bank
of the river.
American troops also are operat-
ing on the Mehrenga river, 50 miles
south of Seletskoe and in a more
thickly populated country. The viii
lagos there are strongly anti-bol-
sheviki and Russian detachments are
aiding the allies. On Wednesday a
Russian detachment surprised and
defeated an enemy force, killing
nearly 100.

Indian Princess Wins
Alteration Of Small
London Town BOYS

London, Nov. 27.-Princess
Tsianina, a real American Indian
princess, has arrived in London,
and all the little boys in the neigh
borhood of her hotel are trench
dously excited. They form an
awe-gripped retinue for her
whenever she takes walk, follow
ing at a respectful distance with
worshipful eyes. They have found
out that she is the daughter of a
Cherokee mother and that her
father is a member of the Muskogee
tribe.
Being more familiar, as are their
American cousins, with wild west
stories than with biographies. their
imaginations are fired by the prin-
cess buffalo robe, her moccasin.
of soft cherry colorsd skin, her
necklace of buffalo bone, which was
presented to her by Indians as a
token of affection, and her fllet of
Indian beadwork. Far from resent
ing this youthful homage the prin-
cess seems to enjoy it thoroughly.
Her mission in Europe is to sing
Indian songs to Indian troops, Of
whom there are about 10000 in
France, ranging from privates to
majors.
Brought up by white people, the
possessor of a fine voice which has
been we'll trained, Princess Tsian-
ina is regarded by the British press
as an interesting product of twen-
tieth century America.
The princess deprecates wild west
shows and wild west movies, which
she says have given Europeans an
entirely wrong idea of her people.

Allies HATRED
MANIFESTED TO
GERMAN ENJOYS
Communications at ArmistiCe
Conference Never Tenn
pered by Friendly Word,
Says Hun Delegate.

Amsterdam, Nov. 27.-The armis-
tice conferences between the German
delegates and Marshal Foch and his
associates early this month were
carried out in the most business-like
manner possible and apparently
witEcut notable incidents, accord
ing to long account of the confer
ence given the Berlin Vossische lei
tung by a member Of the German
party.
After the French met the Ger
man commissioners they were
driven for 10 hours in automobiles
to an appointed rendezvous. 1T
seemed to me-" says the narrator,
that the drive was Intentionally
prolonged in order to carry US
through the devastated provinces
and prepare us for the hardest con-
ditions which hatred and revenge
might demand. One of the French
men pointed to heap of ruins, say
ing, Behold St. Quentin"
I'VE entered a train with blinds
drawn in the evening and awoke in
the morning in the midst of the
forest of Compeigne, surrounded by
soldiers.
Enmity Shown.
There were two trains, one oc-
cupied by Marshal Foch and his
staff and the other by the Germans.
In these we lived, worked and ne
gotiated for three days. We had
everything in abundance. There
was nothing to find fault with. The
great enmity and hatred that ap-
parently prevailed against us were
shown, however, in the negotiations
and in the terms imposed"
The narrator remarks that the
French officers and Vice Admiral
Wemyss. British representative,
maintained a cold attitude, never
tempered by friendly word"
Marshal Foch, whom we only
saw twice. at the beginning and at
the end of the conference, is stern,
plain man. He did not speak sin
gle word to us in the tone which
fromerly distinguished the chival-
rous French nation.
Foch Not Rough.
1T is not true that Foch told us
there could not be any question of
negotiations, only the imposition of
conditions, and whatever GOODNESS
he displayed was never ill-mannered
or rough.
Really there was nothing to ne
gotiate. We pointed out the tech
nical impossibility of some condi-
tons. Finally we we're
obliged to sign"
During the discussion the French
handed the Germans the Paris
newspapers announcing the abdica-
ton of Emperor William.
"We observed no smile of tri-
umph on their faces" adds the writ
er, "but could discern their hatred" y

Whether he will be nominated is
an open question. Without actually
declining to serve, it is said, Mr..

Interesting Display Of
Old Guns Shown in
Jones-Hanson Window

The Jones' Hansen Cadillac conf
pany, Twenty and Farnam
streets, has arranged in a corner
OF its showroom very interesting
exhibit of firearms. Some of these
models date back 800 years and the
display includes almost every type
of pistol manufactured. The collec-
ton is the property of A. 7. Hill
of Hastings, Neb.. who has made
this collection a lifetime hobby.
A Chinese matchbox rifle said to
be over 800 years old is probably the
Oldest of thte collection. This
unique design was picked up some
where on the Chinese wall.
Another interesting object is a
German helmet of the type used by
the kaiser's bodyguard. 1t is said
that this helmet belongs to an Oma7
ha man, but that he ceased to be
proud OF this possession some time
ago.
Another interesting type of fire
arms is a double barreled muzzle
shot" The barrel of this weapon is
as thin as :. sheet of paper, Among
the other exhibits are % caliber
nickel buster; also palm pistol
with a wheel type shooting cylin-
der The cylinder of this palm
pistol is of design SIMILAR to the
Lewis machine gun. There are
numerous styles of powder horns,
such as our forefathers used as far
back as revolutionary war times.
To add a touch of modernism to
this display the Townsend Gun
company has furnished a modern
Remington rifle and a perfectly
good grenade of the type used in
France.
