Say Huns.
Amsterdam, July 3l.-Two hundred
and fifty thousand dollars to the man
who attempts to kill the Kaiser!
Two hundred thousand for an at
tempt on the life of the Crown Prince!
Those are the prizes hung up by
the British Government, if the Of
ficial German newspaper, the Nord-
deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, can be
believed.
Of course it's part of the pan-Ger-
man propaganda scheme, just as the
recent announcement that an attempt
had been made to kill the Kaiser and
Won Hindenburg nd its subsequent
denial was propaganda. Tie idea
seems to be that this sort of lies will
make the Kaiser and the Crown
Prince more popular
The German paper which prints
this weird yarn declares the uthor
ity for it is two recaptured German
deserters who had been employed in
Copenhagen by the British Secret Ser
vice.
It isn't necessary to kill the Kaiser,
all you have to do is attempt it to win
the reward. The Allgemeine Zeitung
intimates that England realizes that
to kill the head Hun would be impos-
sible.
According to the story the follow
ing scale of prizes has been hung. up
BY other similar feats:
For the destruction of U-boat,
$125,OOC. =
For the destruction of German
bridge, $4,000
For melting a mutiny or strike,
$4,000.
For causing a fire in German
skipyard, $4,000.
The prisoners are said to have de-
clared that the French Government is
offering similar prizes.

 His Service Saved Him.
 When Col. Robt. Perkins. Red Cross commissioner to Italy, was in this country recently, he related an experi- ence of a Red Cross worker in Rome
 This man dressed in the uniform of the American Red Cross, had dined at the sopposite side of the town to that in which his living quarters were located. Coming home rather late. and losing his way he got into the slums of the city Walking along a very dark street he was suddenly way laid by two bandits, who pointed a pistol at his head and demanded his money. He very calmly said: "I am Capt. --, of the American Red Cross.' They immediately assumed an attitude of the utmost respect. pocketed their revolvers and, with the greatest courtesy, told the Red Cross officer that he had wandered into 8 part of the town where it was not safe, and, after saying that they would see to it that nothing should ever hap pen to any man representing the American Red Cross, escorted him to the more civilized parts of the city and, bidding him a, courteous good evening"" departed.

AMERICAN RED CROSS NOTES

To provide for conditions b1ought about by Germany's constant shifting of American prisoners from one camp to another with the result that parcels of food and clothing may not reach them for weeks, the American Red Cross, according to advices from Berne, has completed cooperative ar engagements with the French Relief agencies to assist in the immediate care of all newly arriving Americans Under this arrangement French com mittees at the German prison camps, supply food and clothing from their reserve stocks, until the Germans see fit to let news of the arrival get to the Red Cross at Berne.
 In the case of a transferred pris- oner, the Germans frequently do not let his friends know his new address for two or three weeks during which time, of course, he receives no parcels from the outside
 Captain Provot, in charge of French relief at Berne, has notified all French committees in prisons in southern Germany, to supply food and neceSsaries to all Americans whether newly captured or transferred, the moment they arrive at any camp where there is no American Red Cross Committee or American reserve stock of supplies. He has requested the other French prisoners depots at Paris and Lyons to send similar in structions to all prison committees supplied by them. These French committees also report the arrivals of Americans to the American Red Cross, which at once begins regular ship ment of food and clothing. And sup plies furnished by the French to
