MIDDLE AGES ARE
BROUGHT TO LIFE

ROME. March 25.-War memories
the Middle Ages have been renewed
among the princely houses of Italy
Ly the recent decision of the Roman
civil courts condemning the old and
famous families of Corsini and Barger-
in: to restore TO the young daughter OF
the Prince Cciarra property rights, in
volving large money in come, vested
in the ancient order of the Knights o.
Malta.
Except among noble or Catholic
families the very existence of the mill
tant religious order of the Knights of
Malta had been frogotten here, yet the
decision of the court has shorn that
large properties still are in the pos
session of this order founded many
centuries ago at Jerusalem and which
successfully controlled the islands of
Rhodes and Malta until driven out by
Napoleon.
The lawsuit was brought by Prince
Maffeo Sciarra in the interest of his
daughters Formerly himself one of
the richest princes of Rome, he had
become so impoverished that he un-
dertook several years ago the selling
of automobile insurance in order to
earn living. In his misfortune he
remembered that his family had once
been prominent in the Knights of
Malta
Then he discovered that owing to
the great wealth of his own father
and grandfather they had probably
neglected a handsome income Of S.
600 or $4,000 year due as heirs OF
a Knight of Malta title, an income
which for the past hundred years had
been enjoyed by his relatives of the
princely houses of Corsini and Barger
mi Prince Sciarra decided to sue for
the accrued Incline
After two years the court has now
decided that the Prince of Barberinl
and Corsini shall make joint restitu-
ton from the year 1919 until 1853,
then that the Prince Corsini shall
make full restitution from 1853 until
1880, and the Bargerinis from 1880 un-
til the present time
Prince Cciarra and his wife and
daughter have once more taken their
place among the proud and exclusive
families of old Rome

SERIOUS DISORDERS
OCCURRED IN BERLIN

NEW YORK, March 25.-Serious
disorder attended the general strife
in Berlin during the last week of jan
uary and the first few days of Febru-
airy, according to German newspapers
of that period received here.
For time the trolley car service
was interrupted in various parts Ber-
lin because the strikers had repeated
" cut the wires. Street car passengers
were attacked, women conductors
were abused-striker throwing stones
at the women and pulling them from
the cars. Traffic was blocked by
strikers who ran cars into one anoth-
err at full speed Meat stores were
pillaged, bakers were forced to supply
bread without bread cards.
The strike came as surprise to the
leaders Of the social democratic party,
the International Korrespondenz, a
socialistic organ, which stated that the
party leadership had not been consult
ed regarding the strike. Later the
party leaders were requested by the
strikers to assume charge of the strike,
which they did in an endeavor to end
the strike as soon as possible and to
see to it that the interests of labor
wera safeouarded
The strike temporarily paralyzed all
war industries in Berlin and vicinity,
especially the airplane plants. The
Prussian Diet was also affected, as the
compositions and printers there also
Joined the strike thus interfering con-
siderably with the proceedings owing
to the delay in the printing of bills
and other documents.

date seeds. cherry pits (f native),
plum pits. Brazil nut shells, the
shells of hickory nuts, walnuts and
butternuts (although the army can
use the whole nut, it is desirable. for
the sake Of food conservation, to

Any Of the material on this list, no
matter how old, can be used, provided
they are not decayed. No attempt
need be made to keep the various
materials separate, but they must be
dry. It is not necessary to extract
the kernel from such Of the pits as
contain kernels.
The shipment of the materials has
been put in charge Of the American
Red Cross, which already has facili-
ties for the handling of supplies.
Your local committees of public
safety should be instructed to ind out
the location Of the collection depots
in their respective communities, and
to direct all contributions to these
depots. Remember that all pits must
be dried before they are shipped.
The help of local organizations is
especially desired in reaching the
people Of rural districts where, aside
from the fruit stones of the present
season, large quantities of old stones
and nuts can be collected and where
the gathering of nuts can be greatly
extended. The state divisions OF the
Women's Committee can also be OF
great assistance, and will cooperate
with the public safety organizations.
The heaviest demand for the ma
terials listed above will come in the
next few months. Furthermore, the
fruit season is closing and the nut
gathering time Is almost here. The
need for action is immediate.

JOHN f. ROBERTS PAR
DON HEARING. OCT. 30

The Governor and Council has or
dered a hearing to take place
Wednesday, Oct. 80. at 10 A. M, on
the petition for the pardon of John
E. Roberts, who is serving a life
sentence in the States prison at
Thomaston for murder. Frank H.
Ingraham of Rockland is the counsel
for the petitioners.
Roberts was indicted with Mrs.
Annie Dickinson for the murder of
the latter's husband, j. Edgar Dick
inson at the April term of the su-
preme judicial court for Aroostook
county in 1907. The case against
Mrs. Dickinson was mol pressed and
the jury in the case of Roberts after
a elaboration of "a hours was unable
to agree. Another trial was held at
the following September term at
Houlton. and this time Roberts was
convicted. An appeal to the law
court was dismissed for want of
prosecution and on April 80, 1918,
Roberts began serving his sentence.
Roberts in his plea for executive
c!cmency says:
Your petitioner represents that he
was not guilty of the crime Of the
murder of J. Edgar Dickinson. not
withstanding that the jury at his
second trial found that he was
guilty: that there was no motive for
him to commit the crime; that he
was convicted wholly on circumstan-
tial evidence; that the evidence pre-
sented was not sufficient to warra It
or justify a verdict of guilty; that his
conduct has. been that Of an innocent
man: that the issue upon which he
was convicted was whether or not he
was at Island Falls the day before
the murder. rather than as to wheth-
er or not he was guilty of the crime
charged: that the jury found him
guilty because they thought that he
was not telling the truth as to his
whereabouts that day; that by reason
or the hostility of the newspapers to
MN at the first trial and the publicity
winch they gave to his case he was
unable to get a fair second trial:
mat his nationality and appearance
were used against him; that by rea-
son of bias and prejudice he was I'M
able to procure fair trial: that he
lacked influential friends and means
to obtain a new trial and Justice
thereby was not done him; that he
bore good reputation in the com
munity previous to Dickinson's
death; and his habits and character
were good

carried on in cooperation with the
national government and have direct
~ to do with the war. They are
those concerned with the Ports
mouth Kittery Civil Sanitary Dis
trict. the sanitary work at Bath in
connection with the Shipping Board
and the venereal disease menace.
The -kittery Civil
Sanitary District was recently estab-
lished by the Maine and New Hamp-
shire State Department of Health in
cooperation with the United States
navy and the United States Public
Health Service. The problem Great :
cd by the presence of 5000 to 1000
navy yard workmen who live in
neighboring Maine and New Hamp-
shire towns is being met by the state
and national authorities in co-opera-
ton with the various local authori-
ties. DR.. Paul Preble, past assistant
surgeon of the United States Public
Health Service, a Maine man and a
graduate of Bowdoin and Johns Hop
kins Medical School. has been placed
in charge of the district by the pub
lie health service on recommendation
of DR.. l.. D. Bristol. the Maine State
commissioner of health. The Maine
towns of kittery, York, Eliot. Ber-
wick and South Berwick as well as
several New Hampshire towns have
followed the example of the state
governments in investing Dr. Preble
with civil authority. The appropria-
tons of $500 by Maine and New
Hampshire respectively are used to
aid the government in carrying on
the work.
The health problem at Bath, aris-
ing through the presence of large
numbers of workmen in the ship
Yards. is being met by the payment
of $500 out of Names war emery
ency fund for the conduct of a public
health laboratory, and the payment of
a health officers salary by the United
States Shipping Board. The work at
the present time is progressing under
the direction of Sanitarian Chester s.
Kingsley, formerly bacteriologist
with the State department of health.
The venereal disease campaign
urged by national authorities is be-
ing pushed vigorously. A new divi-
sion of the State department has
been created to deal with the
venereal disease menace in Maine as
