CBy W. T. Owen)

The man without a country, whose adventures have been sung by the bards of a century, had no advantage over Charles Julius Eppling, said also to have been known as Charles Julius, who camouflaged his American citizen ship by claiming to be Swiss, attempt led to enter the American secret service as a foreigner. and finally failed in- gloriously, being sentenced at Tucson, June 1. to serve a year in the county jail at Prescott, Ariz., as an evader of the draft. This followed his detention for more than two months by immigra- ton officials as an alien enemy sus- pect because of his refusal 10 admit anything relative to his nationality.
 Matched against the skill and superb mental qualities Of one of the best men in the immigration service in the Mexican border district, his affrontery failed him and he confessed thnt he was attempting to carry off as desper- ate a game as any man ever tried to impose upon his fellow cOuntrymen. In the end he declared himself to be a stacker of the first water and begged to be inducted into the army in some sort of yellow dog corps; anything to escape further merciless grilling at the hands of the inspector whose eyes seemed to read the secrets of his in nermost soul. He attempted to cover his stacker personality with a mantle three-quarters fabricated and cne-quar- ter romantic experiences in the South Seas" was the way in which the case was finally summed up.
 Born 23 years ago in Evanston, ILL, Bppling early gave promise of adopt ing a rowing habit of life From his grandfather, a Prussian and a school master, residing now at $40 Seventh street, Milwaukee, Wis, he is sup pcsed to have imbibed something Of the spirit exhibited by him later. His father Charles Eppling, with his moth CT and a sister now reside at 1923 Ear ly avenue, Chicago. III. According to them, the young man was accustomed to walk out of the house. without say ing q word to anyone and perlaps months later they would learn that he had been passing through series ot soul trying adventure.
 EppIing Disappears
 Following the declaration of war with Germany, when the selective draft first began to be discussed seri- cusly. Eppling disappeared from his home. The next thing beard Of him was when a young man giving his name as Charles Julius. claiming to be a Swiss, appeared on the water front of Seattle and Tacoma, Wash. Finally on May IT, 1917, he signed articles and became a member of the crew of the "A. B. Johnson" which sailed from

 O evening sun of July, how, at this hour. thy beams fall slant upon reap CTS amid peaceful. woody fields, on old women spinning in cottages, on ships far out in the silent main: on balls at the orangerie of Versailles, where high rouged danes of the palace are even now dancing with ouble-jacketed hus- sar officers; and also on this roaring hell porch of a Hotel de Villei

MAN WITHOUT COUNTRY REFUSED TO FIGHT OUR FOES
 AND IS NOW SERVING IN JAIL

South Bend. Wash. with a cargo of lumber for Australia.
 The voyage was enlivened by rum Ors Of German raiders in the Pacific, which proved to have more than a fic- titiOus basis when the "Seeadler," a raider, attacked the 4. B. Johnson and, after transferring the crew and such valuables as they wanted, sank the American vessel.
 For the next four months Eppling. under the name of Julius. cultivated the good graces of the Germans In a hurricane the Seeadler was wrecked on a reef in the South Sea islands. The crew and that of the Johnson were picked up after few weeks by a French steamer. being taken to Papete, Island of Tahiti. At this time Eppling was so intimate with the Ger mans of the .Seeadler crew that the authorities of Papete became suspi- cious of him. However they allowed him to return to the United States on the steamship Paloona. and was dis charged at San Francisco, December 13, 1917, passing through the hands of the pert authorities as a Swiss and claiming to have been born in Berne, Switzerland
 In this guise. armed with his dis charge from the A. B. Johnson. Julian attempted further to bury his identity by applying to the Swiss consul at San Francisco. requesting that he be issued a certificate of Swiss citizenship. His glibness almost won him his goal. However the consul began to grow suspicious of him and finally sent him away. refusing to grant his wish.
 Attempting to Sell Story
 At San Francisco and again in Los Angeles, he haunted the offices of the newspapers endeavoring to sell one of them what purported to be a 1000 word story of his voyage, including a history of the Seeadler. The price he asked was too high and finally despair Ing of being able to sell his story. he went to Arizona First he was at Marioopa, then at Bisbee. From Bis bee he went to Cananea, Sonora, where he decided to go to Guaymas and re ship as a seaman He had some pri vate scores to pay, however, and going to NOgales, Sonora. by pre-arrange- ment with an agent of the American Department of Justice, crossed the boI der to Nogales. Arizona. on the morn ing of February 16. At that time he gave the officer the names of a mum Der of people residing in the United States, saying he suspected them of being in the employ of the German government.
 He returned to Sonora, but after the American officer had consulted friends and decided upon a course of action
Bisbee daily review., 1918-07-14

he was induced to again come to the Arizona side of the line that afternoon. At once he was arrested as a suspect ed enemy alien and was placed in jail.
 Attempts made by the Department of Justice men to elicit his life history pricr to the time he shipped at South Bend. Wash, met with failure.
 He refused to say anything about himself, except to cite his papers of discharge, representing him to be a Swiss.
 Despairing of making headway against his obstinacy. Julius, as he was known, was turned over to the immigration department and taken to Tucson. At first his admantine resist ance to questioning continued. Then he met a man whose iron will shatter- ed the reserve forces of his resolve not to talk about himself. Almost before he knew it he was discussing his child hood and bOyhood with the officer.
 Didn't Want To Fight Prussians
 He began to pave the way to get in- to the army. if such a move was pOssi- ble He claimed that he always had been ready to enter either the military or naval service of the United States, conditionally. He should not be sent against Prussians. because the blood of Prussia flowed in his veins and he refused to fight his relatives in the ranks of the kaiser's army. He claim ed he had adopted his course of sub terfuge. intending all along at the proper time to make himself known to American officials. so that he could demonstrate to their satisfaction his nerve and ability to dissemble, which he appeared to think would entitle him to consideration as a secret ser vice agent behind the fighting lines" He claimed already to have benefited his country by purloining from the Seeadler and turning over to the Am erican consul at Papete. the official log of the German raider
 Primarily a German sympathizer; secondarily a stacker. wholly an ego ist and now potentially innOcuous," was the way the immigration people sized up the young man
 Investigation was made in Chicago His relatives there confirmed his story in part. Immediately the presidential warrant charging him with being an enemy alien was dismissed. A bench warrant was issued May 90 by Federal Judge William F. Sawtelle, charging Eppling with failure to register under the selective draft
 On being arraigned, the following day. Eppling pleaded guilty. but begged to be inducted into the military service. Judge Sawtelle expressed grave doubt as to whether he would be acceptable as a recruit, but pending decision by the military, held the plea of guilty in abeyance. The army re- fused to receive the man and June 1 Judge Sawtelle caused him to be brought into court. propouncing sen tence of one year in the Yavapai eoun- ty jail at Prescott. Local advices are to the effect that the young man al ready has begun to serve his sentence.
