ATTACKS ON CROWN PRINCE.
Target of Two Extremes-Socialists
and Pan.Germans.

From the two extremes of German
party lines, the Socialists and the Pan
Germans, the Crown Prince is being
attacked for his recent interview deny
ing responsibility for the war.
An Official dispatch from Franco
says the Socialist paper Chimlitz Vols
timme declares that if the government
premeditates a peace committee, the
Crown Prince must now be named as
one of its spokesmen, as "his bellicoae
past, his notorious attacks, his un-
timely manifestations at the Reichs
tag and elsewhere, are in complet:
contradiction with the way of speaking
ne now wishes to adopt"
Another Socialist paper, the Arbeit
er Zeitung, of Essen, ironically recalls
the Crown Princes speech to regi
ment at Langthur, in which he said:
"The happiest day in my life will e'
the day when the war breaks out"
On the other hand, the Pan-Germal
Deutsche Zeitung now demands die
Ftatorship which will get together al
those who have a clear perception @
their duty.
The dispatch says tbs confusion i
political circles in Berlin explains tn
Remarkable statement by former Char
!,eellor Won Hertling in his last specc

"Church of Gold"

There is no structure just like St.
Marks, In Venice, in the world, notes
the Kansas City Journal. Its bulb
shaped dOmes and minaretlike belf-
ries remind the visitor Of the Orient.
1t seems more like u Mohammedan
than Christian temple. In the facade
are scores of variously c0lored marble
columns, each one monolith and all
possessing an eventful history. Some
are from Ephesus, others from Symr-
ma, others from Constantinople and
more than one even from Jerusalem.
st. Marks is the treasure house Of
Venice, a place of pride as well as
prayer. The work of Identifying this
old church was carried on for five CEN
turtles, and each generation tried to
Guido all that had preceded 1t. The
walls and roof are so profusely COW
cred with mosaics and precious mar
bles that 1t is easy to understand why
st. Marks has been called the "Church
of Gold"
