SCIENCE NEWS
Popular Articles DivuIge Secrets
to the Foe.
nocentIy Gives Facts Useful
to Enemy.

Parfs.-How popular science dis
cussed In the daily and magazine press
conveys information to the enemy and
how even great national institutions
like the French academy of sciences
sometimes innocently divulge secrets
which the enemy finds useful is told
by q writer in La Liberte, who protests
against the indiscriminate propagation
of technical information. The writer
comments on the fact that the acad-
envy of sciences has suggested that the
censorship be rendered more effective
by the addition of a few savants who
will be able to recognize valuable sci
entific information when they see 1t.
In the view Of the academy the
press has been allowed, more by neg
ligence than ignorance, to print much
scientific information the Importance
Of which escaped the editors and
which should have been kept secret.
The columns of matter relating to the
German ~lOng-range gun form a case
in point. M. Charles LIE Goffic, a sci
entifc writer of note, writing on this
subject, says that the press has in
dulged in a veritable orgy of details
concerning the experiments in prog
ress in France to extend the range Of
the heavy artillery. Plans of shells
and guns, he alleges, have ven been
published.

Seeing her castle destroyed and her
old servants murdered by the Huns
was the trying ordeal experienced by
DR.. AntOinette d'Artagnan, a french
woman doctor, now in the United
States. She is the last of that name
in France. She has been wounded and
gassed, receiving medals from King
Albert of Belgium and General Petain.
Her chateau was within three miles OF
the Belgian border when the Germans
came and destroyed everything, in
Guiding rare works Of art, tapestries,
paintings, and everything they could
lay their hands on. Nothing now re-
mains but a pile of stones to mark
this once beautiful castle. She hopes
to recover her health in this country,
far from the scenes of horror that
she has witnessed, and then intends to
return to help the American woman
doctors in France.

The following is submitted to the
Register as a very interesting article
and we publish ii for the benefit of
our readers:
Louis Syberkop of Creston, Iowa,
has acquired much fame in recent
weeks as author of a satire on Kaiser
Wilhelm. Requests have come to him
from Tumulty. Secretary Daniels and
Roosevelt, and people in every state of
the union and in Canada for copies of
his article. 1t follows:
ITO Wilhelm o Hohenzollern, King
Of Prussia, Emperor of Al Germany
and Envoy Extraordinary of Al
mighty God.
MY Dear Wilhelm: | can call you
by that familiar name, fer | have al
ways been very close to you, much
closer than you could know.
From the time that you We're yet
an undeveloped being | have shaped
your destiny for my own purpose.
I'm the days of Rome l created a
r~ough-neck known in history as Nero.
He was a vulgar person and suited
my purpose at that particular time.
In these modern days a classic demon
and efficient supernatural was need,
ed and as | know the Hohenzollern
blood, l picked you as my special in
strument to place on earth an annex

al friend Of God. All, Wilhelm, you
are a wonder. You wantonly destroy
all things in your path and leave
nothing fol-, coming generations.
II was amazed when | saw you form
a partnership with the impossible
Turk, the chronic killer of Christians,
and you a devout worshipper in the
Lutheran church. | confess, Wilhelm,
you are a puzzle at times. A Moham-
medan army, commanded by German
officers, assisting one another in mas
warfare.
when a Prussian officer can wit

ed by a swarthy Turk, committing a
double murder with one cut of his

oil and fired, then my teachings did

of hell will be turned over to you.
The gavel that has struck the doom
of damned souls since time began is

-u~ke. Tint might have made even
N1r,la think vice before attacking
him.
After Korak had lctt he village IT
thc blacks following his last thieyIng
expedition the screams Of women and
children had brought the warriors in
from the forest and the river. Great
was the excitement and hot was the
rage OF the men when they learned
that the white devil had again entered
their homes, frightened their women
and stolen arrows and ornaments and
food.
Evrn their superStitious fear of this
we'll. creature who hunted with n
huge bun ape was overcome in their
desire TO wreak vengeance upon him
and rid themselves for good and all Of
the menace of his presence in the
jungle.
And so it was that a score Of the
f~leetest and most doughty warriors OF
the tribe set 0ut in pursuit Of korak
and Akut but II few minutes after
they had left the scene Of the Killers
many depredations.
The little party Of warriors was led
by Kovudoo, the chief, a middle aged
savage Of exceptional cunning and
bravery. 1t was he who first came
within sight Of the quarry which they
had followed for hours by the mys-
terious methods of their almost I'M
canny powers OF observation, intuition
and ever scent.
The white youth and the white maid
stood alone In the jungle when they
were discovered by Kovudoo's band.
Akut had been made king of his ape
tribe, and Korak, to Akut's sorrow,
had left him to dwell with Meriem in
the jungle. One OF KovudoO's men
leaned close to the ear Of his chief.
Look !" he whispered and pointed
to something that dangled at the girls
side. "When my brother and l were
slaves In the village of the sheik my
brother made that thing for the sheik's
little daughter. She played with 1t al
ways and called 1t after my brother,
whose name is Geeka. just before we
escaped some one came and struck
down the sheik. stealing his daughter
away. If this is she the sheik will pay
you well for her return"
Korak's arm had gone around the
shoulders Of Meriem. And then from
behind him broke n hideous bedlam of
savage war cries, and II score of
shrieking blacks were upon them.
Korak turned to give battle. Meriem
with her own light spear stood by his
side. An avalanche of barbed missiles
flew about them. One pierced Korak's
shoulder, another his leg, and he went
down.
Merlem was unscathed for the blacks
had Intentionally spared her. Now
they rushed forward to finish Korak
and make good the girls capture. But
as they came there came also from an
other point In the jungle the great
Akut and at his heels the huge bulls
of his new kingdom.
Snarling and roaring, they rushed
upon the black warriors when they
saw the mischief they had already
wrought. KovudoO, realizing the dam
ger Of coming to close quarters with
these mighty ape men, seized Meriem
and called upon his warriors to retreat.
For a time the apes followed them,
and several of the BLACKS We're badly
mauled and n killed before they sue
ceeded in escaping. Nor would they
have got off thus easily had Akut not
been more concerned with the condi-
ton of the wounded Korak than with
