Chairman Kitchin, after the COM

situation as follows:
I'VE have put a tax of per cent
on retail sales of mail order houses
that have above 100000 annual

When Bernstorff was about to
leave the country they eagerly grasp
ed the opportunity to return to Ger
many in his party, and went as mem
bers of the former ambassador s
staff. No effort was made by the
American authorities to detain them.
1t appears that the knowledge Of
the English language and Of English
and American manners customs and
ideals made the brothers peculiarly
competent to torment the English
prisoners and such Americans as had
been captured after joining the Brit
lsh army to gain early opportunity
to strike 4 blow at kaiserism.
The Niemeyers, it appears, heaped
all manner Of indignities upon the
prisoners-offieers and enlisted men

camps of which they had charge and

Sheathed in his bomb proof ar

unfortunately, not easy to kill.
Among all his five brothers there

Of the poor, duped peasant soldiers

not be possible to take the life of
Prussian prince imperial for that Of
the gallent little lad in whose veins
flowed the blood of the Bullocks and
the Roosevclts. All six of their lives
would lit.lo compensate America for
the loss of Quentin. The death of
the kaiser himself would not assuage
the grief Of the noble American fam
lily on Sycamore Hill. But, perhaps,
all along the front, American airmen
are saying:

,"OPFTCTAL TORTURERs"
FORMERLY FROM U. s.

August and Frederick Niemeyer,
twins, who have won an evil repu
tation as "official tormentors" OF
coldiers in German prison camps,
formerly lived in Philadelphia. They
conducted n wholesale coffee bust
ness at Hutchison and Silver street.
A recent cable dispatch to the
Evening Public Ledger told Of in
famous acts charged against these
Nlemeyer twins, who were born 81
years ago, and II has been learned
that the brothers were well known
in Philadelphia.
As reward" for their abuse Of
English and American prisoners the
kaiser has decorated them with the
ron cross, second class.
The twins left this country when
Count Won Bernstorff, the former
German ambassador to the United
States wac given his passports; in
April, 1917. Upon their return to
their fathcrland they were placed in
charge OF the prison camps at Han
over.
Some time before their departure
from America loyal Americans Of
German birth or descent, who had
known them here, had begun to dis
cover what manner of men the Me
meyer brothers were, and they were
virtually ostracized except in a very
small circle. Their conduct has caus-
cd them to be dropped from one club
where II was charged they were or
dinary grafters."
The Niemeyers came to Philadel-
phia from Boston in 1897. They said
they had been naturailzcd. So far
as is known here neither was mar
lied.
After the outbreak of the war in
Europe they often boasted that,
while they were naturalized citizens
of the U. s., they still retained their
commissions as reserve officers of
the German army. They expressed
hopes that they would some day have

A KNIGHT ERRANT OF LIBERTY

To Theodore Roosevelt, that fine,
ly American American, the either
soldier and soldiery citizen who
wanted to go to France in the Amer
lean uniform and under the stars and
stripes when his country entered the
war, the sympathy of every Ameri-
can goes out impulsively and sim
ccrely upon receipt of the news that
he youngest son, Quentin, has been
Killed in France.
II is 4 singular coincident tina;
the Scottish archer, Quentin Dur.
ward, of Sir Walter SCOTS romance,
sought his fortune in France in the
reign Of Louis XI and that the
young Roosevelt who bore his name
lost his life in France in an age far
more heroic than that in which the
most sinister Louis in the list occu-
pied the French throne, in cause
far nobler than Quentin Durward
ever fought, in branch of military
service infinitely more inspiring to
Dettlesome youth and chivalric
courage than archery could have
been when sons of Merrie England
drew the cloth yard shaft and bent
the good yew bow IN war.
Our twentieth century American
Quentin Dulward's mission in France
was more romantic than that OF
SCOTS adventurous Scot. He did no.
feek his fortune, but went unself-
ishly as one among many knights
errant of liberty bound from the
greatest republic in the world to
defend the greatest republic in Eu-
rope against the greatest outrage I'M
the history of the world. His was a
gallant undertaking, undertaken gal
iantly. 1t ended gallantly. He fell
but he fell within the enemy's lines
TIE body of an intrepid American
youth lies upon invaded soil held
temporarily by a German horde
His soul "goes marching on" Bv
slch acts of heroism as his. and by
such young Americans as he, the
invaded soil which their blood san
TILES will be reclaimed. Their ser
vice is idealistic, unselflsh, unmix-
edly fine. Its result is certain and
will be glorious.

ter four years of war the six stall

OF which, so far as is known, they
still have charge
According to the cablegram, the
Niemeyer5 displayed characters so
vile that even the German soldiers
under their command held them in
contempt and secretly sympathizcd
with the tortured prisoners.
As might be expected, the Me
meyers, despite their decoration
With the iron cross, were not even
bcnest with the German government
and profited richly by appropriating
food sent them to feed the prisoners
and selling it at exorbitant prices to
hungry Germans in the neighbor-
hood of tho prison camps.

the action of the committee so far
the excise taxes would produce about

100000, under this head would be
levied.
The special tax on mail order

MIGHT HAVE
BEEN SERIOUS

The Enterprise is not inclined TO
tlui fault or crlticise, but the failure
IL being able to give the tire alarm
and also in getting the hyarant to
work last Thursday evening when
fi.e broke out in the rear end OF
L"u 7 Brothers store, will justify US
IL stating that a little more precau-
lion should be taken in keeping all
the equipment in order. Every hy-
drant should be tested every thirty
or sixty days and the fire alarm
: iould be kept in order with a good
sufficient rope so there would be no
question as TO its operation. Only for
the heroic work of J. 4. Lauer, Milt
Lauer, and J. F. Orr, with the assist
ance OF hand extinguisher. the fire
would have had a good start before
tn fire company arrived with the
hose. Mr.. Lauer was the first TO
discover the fire as he was passing
tn. front and noticed the flames in
the rear end. He Immediately gave
the alarm. Mr.. Orr was near by and
soon came with hand extinguisher
from his office which is just across
the street, which perhaps was the
means of preventing a very heauy
loss. However but little damage was
done. Just how the fire started will
never be known, but it is believed
that Spontaneous combustion from
an o-Cedaa-mop which was down be-
hind pile of nail kegs was the
cause. The Enterprise office being
in the basement under this building
got some of the water, but no dam
age done.
