many Of the observances which it be
Queathed to Easter. Thus it was for
merly a custom all through the north
OF Germany, on the night OF Easter
Sunday or the third night following, 10
kindle bonfires on all the heights, af-
fOrding a magnificent spectacle, when
these fires were TO be seen here and
there over miles of country. This Gus
tom had become simply a mode Of
merrymaking, but it is held with plaus-
Utility that originally the bonfire was
symbolical of the new fire that was TO
warm the earth and quicken it into re-
newed life after the cold embrace Of
winter.
Ancient Popular Belief.
Another indication of the ancient
solar character of this festival is an
old popular belief, said to survive still
in Brandenburg and Saxony, that the
sun at the moment of rising on the
morning of Easter gives three joyous
leaps, that he dances with youthful
joy. This curious belief was not con-
fined TO Germany. In the middle dis
tricts of Ireland, according to Brand,
it was customary, after spending East
er eve in merrymaking and carous-
ing-watching the pot boil, the con-
tents of which were TO break the long
Lenten fast, yet must not be touched
before the Growing of the cOck-for
the whole company of jewellers to go
out just at daybreak to see the rising
sun take his three Easter leans. Sir
Thomas Browne, writing Of popular
errors, mentions thus quantity the ex-
istence Of this belief in England: I'VE
shall not, hope, disparage the resnr-
rection of our Redeemer. if We say that
the sun doth not dance on Easter day;
and though I would willingly assent
unto any sympathetic exultation, yet
we cannot conceive therein more than
tropical (fgurative) expression"
Perhaps there is no more striking illus
tration than this of the power of an
inherited belief TO live on in spite OF
the testimony of all experience against
it. In some places, apparently as an
for giving up the belief
wholly, it was held that in order to
witness these three leaps one must
look, not at The sun itself, but at the
reflection of it in a pool of clear water.
AS a last resort, to save the belief, the
sun might be made TO dance. Brand
could recall that when he was boy
he had seen "a vessel full of water set
in the open air, in which the reflected
sun seemed to dance, from the tremu-
lous motion of the water" If the
VIII not come to Mahomet.
then Mahomet must go TO the noun
tain.
Among the customs handed down
long ages and accepted by the
Church were those of Easter eggs and
the Easter tale which the preacher told
from the pulpit, in lieu of a sermon,
it with Christian reminis-
cences. Later still there We're in Ger
many dramatic shows, named Oster-
spiele, executed by twelve performers.
1ne of whom, apparently, was the
eader, and represented Summer beat
NC Winter out of the land. The dances
md sports prevalent at this season in
Germany among the youths and maid
ms appear sometimes to have been
marked with something of the loose
hess Characteristic of the floral games
n Italy.

The reason this famous root and herb

Kelly's case was because it went to the
root of her trouble, restored her to a

her nervousness disappeared.

HOLLAND TO REGARD
WILHELM AS PIRATE
OR A SLAVE TRADER
JUST ANOTHER WAY OF SAY
ING HE is NOT ENTITLED
TO ANY SANCTUARY.

London, Dec. 3.-A demand for
the surrender of William Hohen-
zollern will be submitted 10 The
Netherlands government in the
name OF all the allied cabinets, ac-
cording to the Express. The views
of France and Italy have been fully
communicated to the British gov
ernment, and President Wilson has
made suggestions.
Authority is claimed by the Ex-
press for the statement that al
though there are some little dill
ferences as to points of law among
allied jurists, Mondays conference
in Downing Street revealed unah-
unity relative TO the bringing of the
former German emperor to answer
70 his crimes.
The opinion is held that Holland
will not be disposed to put OBJ
stacles in the way. She will not be
asked to deliver Herr Hohcnzollern
Vnder the ordinary extradition laws
but his status will be considered
analogous to that of pirate trader
who is not regarded as entitled to
sanctuary in any country.

Preparing to Starve Leruberg

Vienna, Monday, Dec. 2.-Trav-
ellers arriving from Lemberg state
that Ukrainian troops are preparing
to surround and starve out the city
OF which the Police forces are in
control. The Ukrainians are said to
have cut the railroad and are being
reinforced by sufficient troops re-
turning from the Italian front to
make a fight against the Poles.
The Ukrainians deny that they
are bolshevists but say that when
the Austrian empire was broken up
they felt they had a right to the
capital city of Lemberg, the Poles
having other capitals. Difficulties
also are anticipated between the
Poles and Czechs over the possess
sion of Oderberg a town in Austrian
Silcsia.
Conditions in Galicia and Silesia
are said to be worse than they were
during the war. The several newly
organized republics are gaining re-
cruits from soldiers returning from
the various fronts and are paying
them several dollars per day for
fighting. Officers are also being well
paid for engaging in hostilities.

Killed Yearling by Mistake.

Creed Speake was arrested by Jim
Carter, deputy sheriff, charged with
larceny. Deputy Carter said Speake
and another young man, who has
not yet been arrested, killed a year
ling belonging to him and his father
sold part of the beef and used some
OF it. He said they admitted killing
the yearling but claimed they made
a mistake, believing they were kill

elections indicated that the Amer
lean people believed the republicans
had been trucr to the war and that
they trusted that party to follow the
president more than they did the
democrats.
Some OF you over there think you
beat the president" he said address
ing the minority side, "You did not
beat the president. The American
people beat the democrats because
your party, on percentage basis
has been truer to the war than we
have-and by we | mean the demo
cratic party, | have come to the
conclusion that some o; the people
put you in office because they be-
lieved that you could be trusted to
follow the president more than we
could.
Wilson Afraid of Nothing
"President Wilson is so much
greater, so much wiser, so much
more long-visioned than are the men
who try to make political capital
out of his going abroad, that there
is no comparison. He is not afraid
of anything, and ne does not 60
around announcing that he is not
afraid of anything. He is going to do
what he thinks best; he is going
over to have a heart-to-heart talk
with Clemenccau and Lloyd George
on what is right"
Senator Williams said that Pres
ident Wilson's trip was not without
precedent that President Taft Wis
tied Canada and went to Mexico to
confer with President Diaz. Presi-
dent Roosevelt, he added, also left
the borders of this country at one
time.
Senator Smith of Michigan, re.
publican, said President Taft had
conferred with Diaz on the interna-
tional bridge at FL Paso, but did not
90 into Mexico.
Resuming his speech, Senator
Sherman deplored the influences OF
the world with which the president
would come in contact and declared
when he reaches Europe, "the whole
American atmosphere that ought to
surround the president, is lost"

sides at this point and it cannot be
transferred to any other point ex-
cept by act OF congress" lie added
that because Of the importance o:
pending questions and the dangers
now on our Mexican border" the
presidents absence might result in
grave menace.
Senator Curtis of Kansas, repub-
lican, interrupted 20 read from de-
cision Of the supreme court Of Ok
lahoma, holding that when the gov
ernor of that state left the borders
of the state, the lieutenant governor
automatically served as governor
until the return Of the chief eNecu-
tive. The provisions of the federal
constitution, he said, are Identical
with reference to the president leay-
ing the country.
Senator Thomas Of Colorado
asked Senator Sherman to discuss
the question as to who should serve
during the absence of the president.
Senator Brandcgce of Come ,ticut
expressed the belief that the const-
tuition provides that the vice preSl-
dent shall serve in the absence of
the president, but that in the e'ent
OF the inability of the vice president
to serve, then congress might ar
range for the succession. Senators
Thomas and Sherman declared that
the right OF succession is fixed by
law.
Senate and Gallery Laugh.
"A kiss Of a scnsuous woman"
said Senator Sherman "has been
known TO change the history Of ma
tons"

temptation" he added, after pause
while senators and spectators in the
galleries laughed.
Senator Sherman contended that
the ordinary functions Of the presi-
dents office cannot be performed
while he is abroad, that he cannot
make civil appointments, pardon or
reprieve offenders, order troops to

Slightly Wounded Unreported
Senator Johnson of Californi;
asked what was holding up the
names of the men included in the
total number already announced.
"I don't know" Secretary Baker
answered. "We're getting them as
rapidly as the cables are able TO car
~ them. ] think the major part OF
those missing are of slightly wound
ed, and coming by mail.
81 cabled General PerShing a
suggestion made to me by Mr.. Stoue
of The Associated Press, to send the
deaths first and let the seriously
wounded follow and then the slight
" wounded. / asked General Per
shing if his machinery was adapted
TO cable the deaths first. lie replied
that sending of the wounded was
not delaying the lists of dead and
that no speed could be gotten by the
process suggested"
Senator Johnson asked how many
Americans had been in actual light
ing up TO the signing of the arnls-
tice. Secretary Baker estimated
10000. and General March added
that it was above that number, but
somewhat less than lGOOCOO."
To Bring Bodies Home.
General March also said unless
relatives of Americans who have
lost their lives prefer otherwise, all
bodies of the American dead viii be
brouhet home. without legislation
by congress. How soon the trans
portation of bodies viii begin, Gen
eral March said he could not stare.
Obviously, General March said
while active fighting was IN prog
ress. reports OF casualties were slow,
He read telegrams exchanged be
tween the department and General
Pershing last July ad August, after
the heavy American losses in the
Chateau u-Thierry fighting when
were DELAYED in transmission. In re-
DIV to orders from Secretary Baker
advising General Pershing that the
delay was creating a feeling OF dis
trust" of the department, General
Pershing replied detaiiing diificul-
ties OF securing and verifying Casual
tv reports and giving assurance that
all possible speed is being exercised.
G General Pershing explained that
the stroops were widely separated
with some in British and French
hositals, that sometimes records
were destroyed, and that the heId
telegraph wires were overburdened'
Pershing insisted that to avoid un-
necessary distress, verification OF re-
ports was necessary.
= 10000 Not Reported
Senator Hitchcock conceded that
while fighting was in progress, re-
ports might be slow, but added; 81
But it stopped Nov. II. and sti!i
we don't know what has happened.
General March replied that on
Nov. II he cabled General Pershing
to send promptly complete total
casualty summary OF dead and miss
ing. General Pershing replied that
it would be done and report OF
seriously wounded would come with
out delaying reports OF the dead
and missing.
Senator Hitchcock observed that
apparently about 100000 casualties
still were unreported. General March .
said, as secretary Baker had said,
that most Of these were slightly
wounded.
Senator Freelinghuysen Of New
Jersey said that apparently Amer
lean deaths total 10000 and OF these
only 1900 have been reported.
