German ''Princess" Gets
Ride in Patrol Wagon
''Royal" Visitor of Americans
at COblenz Proves To Be
Escaped Lunatic
NetO York Tribune
Special Gable Service

Copyright 1910. New York Tribune Inc.)
COBLENZ, June 12.-Bearing a card
decorated with the German imperial
crown in watercolors and engraved
with the name "Auguste .Viktoria, His
Highness the King and Majesty, the
Emperor" a meek-eyed little woman
without credentials was arrested here
to-day by the railway station guard.
Despite her protests she was placed in
patrol wagon and taken before Lieu
tenant Stern. of West Seventeen
Street, New York, who checks up all
Germans who circulate in the Ameri-
can area of occupation.
The little woman explained that she
was the daughter of Hohenzollern
prince and reared at Sieburg by the
Duchess Of Teck. Believing that roy
atty had fallen into his hands, Stern
was solicitious regarding the visitor
until she announced that King Julius
II of England was her first cousin.
Then Stern began to doubt. His
doubts increased when she further an
nounced that she and not the former
Kaiser owned Stolzenfels castle on tha
Rhine, near Coblenz She said she
had come to sell that property, and
when Stern asked the price she replied
that she would take 25 francs cash.
The princess" then gave an address
in Bonn, which Stern found out later
was that of an asylum for the insane.

Sleep Waits on Loue
Songs Of Locusts
Scientist Explains Noise
That Keeps Massapequa
Farmers Quake Nights

Seventeen years ago this month Mas
sapequa. Long Island, farmers were
VISITED by plague of insects which
they called locusts but which are
known to entomologists as "hemiptera. /"
Sleep was a difficult matter for Massa-
pequans during the early summer os
l9o2, because the male locusts kept
vibrating on the under side of their
bodies pair of disks that resemble
miniature drumheads.
The high pitched noise that resulted
was love call addressed to the debu-
tantes of the "hemiptera'
This statenent is made on the word
OF Raymond J.. Ditmars, curator of the
Bronx Zoo. Death follows a locust ro-
nance quickly. Within a few weeks
after the female "hemiptera" had laid
their eggs in the tender shoots and
smaller branches Of oak, gum and fruit
trees, using a lancet-shaped appendage
at the end of the body to bore re-
ceptacle for the eggs, the parent bugs
mad disappeared, victims of voracious
BIRDS or hardening of the arteries, or
ooher consequences Of fast living. The
average life of this so-called locust in
winged form is about twelve days.
Inc eggs remained in the tree stems
most of which die and sometimes
the entire tree) a numb of weeks.
Then they hatched and dropped to the
ground, wingless insects, resembling
deformed crabs without pincers. They
promptly burrowed into the earth, and
there they remained all through the
administrations of President Roosevelt
and President Taft, and they were still
there when shot at Saraievo sounded
the beginning of the world war. This
month, the end of their seventeenth
year. they emerged from their bur-
rows; millions of them climbed up on
the trunks of trees in and around
Massapequa, struggled out of their old
skins and put forth glistening wings.
Then the males began anew the love
songs of ;hcir fathers, and Massa-
pequans are rot sleeping.
DR.. Ditmars said last night that ac-
cording to a government chart re-
Gently issued by the Department. of
Agriculture the bugs are due to appear
this year also in some parts of West
chester County and in the lower Pali
sades. He said the damage they have
done in the past has been exaggerated
IN the telling, but advised owners of
young fruit trees in affected areas to
cover them with netting.

Materialism Is Losing
Ground, Says Educator
DIR. Alexander, of N. Y. U.,
Declares World Faces
Spiritual Revival

The world to-day stands on the
threshold of new spiritual awaken
ing, the Rev DR.. George Alexander,
president of the Council Of New York
University, said yesterday in his bac-
calaureate sermon in the auditorium
at University Heights. He chose as his
text, Acts ii, 17-"Your young men
shall see visions"
"A materialistic view Of the world
order has left no room for the mys-
tical," he said. scholars, imbued with
the spirit of the age, have tried to
apply in the realm of faith the same
canons of criticism which have been
so successfully applied in the material
realm and to relegate to the domain
of myth and fable everything that can
not be tested by the rules of evidence
observed in courts of law or in the re-
searches of the laboratory.
"a reaction has come. Mans logic
may have no place for the super
natural, but mans heart cannot do
without it. The moral progress of the
race has been due to successive i'm
pulses received through men to whom
came fresh disclosures of the unseen
and eternal.
"If read Alright the signs of the
times, we are now in the midst of such
a season of spiritual quickcning. Five
years ago who would have thought
that the oncoming generation was cap
able of such idealsm and altruism as
have been exhibited; such an upsurge
of passion for sacrifice and service.
"The visions of God, Of truth, of
duty that sustained US through the bit
ter conflict will be needed for our sup
port as we face the task Of reshaping
a shattered world. Blessed are they
who can say with the greatest genius
of the Christian centuries, II was rot
dsobedient to the heavenly vision"

1,5OO Tons of German
High Explosives Gone
Stuff Is Set Off at Government
Proving Grounds at
Aberdeen. Md.
Special Corresnonde,

cpcCuu correspondence
ABERDEEN, Md. June 15.-Only
masses of brass castings, splinters of
opaque grenade cones, tangled fuses
and fragments of detonators remain on
the blackened field which was the
scene yesterday of the explosion of
1,5oo tons of German high explosive
shells, grenades and bombs on the gov
ernments proving ground.
Not single officer at the reserva-
tion is sorry. The stuff had been
shipped here for inspection, expert
mentation and storage, but no officer
doubted that it would explode before
the experiments were really begun.
Before the stuff was seized by the
Allies, it was suspected that it had
been tampered with; that certain
chemical agents had been admins
tered, making the detonators-the full
inmate of mercury and kindred for
mulae susceptible to atmospheric
changes-very dangerous to handle
To the suspicion with which the
officers view the ammunition is due the
fact that no life was lost. AS soon
as the fftyfive carloads had been
dumped, every precaution was taken.

SpcctGi CORES pONdcrcc
ST. LOUIS, June 15.-The law did
not prove strong enough to interfere

Of judgment for $S51 80 obtained

money was due him for various sums
of money loaned to Miss Donnell in
1915 and 1917.
The suit was filed in March. 1918.
When it came up for trial last Friday
the plaintiff introduced several can
celled checks, drawn on the City Trust
Company, some Of them made payable
to Miss Donncll The defendant did
not appear, and Il judgment by default
in favor of Haley was ordered.
Miss Donnell said to-day that the
suit brought against her was "spite

but Haley had insisted on personal
settlement with her.

In Days of Plenty Think
OF God, Preacher Warns
British Clergyman Finds Les
son for Americans in
Prosperity

Speaking yesterday before the con-
gregation of Trinity Church, Canon
Masterman, rector of St. Mary lie Bow,
London, said months tour in this
country had showed him but one dan
ger-~that in the tecming prosperity of
the United States it's people might for
get God.
"With SO magnificent future" he
continued, "the peril is that the pco-
pie may stray from the Christian life"
Canon Masterman contrasted the
happy state of America with that of
Great Britain, where, he said, the pco-
pie were mourning one million dead in
the war, where industry has been Grip
Piled and the people are facing the fu
ture with anxiety.
"And yet" he went on, III would not
care to. go back to the old easy days.
England was then on the verge of for
getting God. The war has taught the
great lesson that without divine guild
ance nations may perish and right and
justice depart from the Garth"

Mayor Invited to
Investigate One of
His Commissioners
Citizens Union Calls At
tention to Charges Made
by Hirshfield Alleged To
Be Aimed at DR.. Day

Mayor Hylan has been asked by the
Citizens Union to investigate the
charges made by the Mayors Commits
sioner of Accounts, David Hirshfield
that another one of the Mayors COM
missioners, who the civic organization
declares is DR.. Jonathan c. Day, head
of the Department of Markets, had been
prevented by him from violating the
law by use of city property FOR private
purposes"
The Citizens Union asks the Mayor
to conduct the inquiry, either through
speciab Aldermanic committee or
otherwise. The organization suggests
that if the charges, made presumably
against Commissioner Day, are true
the latter should be dismissed If the
accusations are unfounded the union
suggests Commissioner Hirshticld "has
demonstrated his unitness for office"
The charges made by the Commits
sioncr of Accounts grew out of an in
vestigation conducted by Commissioner
Hirshfield into the Plaza Community
Club and the Mutual Finance and Ex-
change Market, Inc, ostensibly organ
lied t. help reduce the cost of living.
In tn report of his investigation
Commissioner Hirshfield said that the
sole object Of "these attractively
phrased organizations was to make
personal profits for the incorpora
tons." He characterized the incorpo-
rators and prime movers IN these two
corporations as unreliable" and their
finances, he said, consisted solely Of
promssory notes. He described their
activities as "devoted to the sale
of stock to innocent purchasers upon
Misrepresentation that the object was
backed by the government of the city
of New York"
The Citizens Union points out that
the records show that Commissioner
Day was an incorporation and q d-
rector in both organizations.
The request for an investigation was
made by Walter Talmadge Arndt,
Secretary of the Citizens Union, in
letter mailed on Saturday to the
Mayor.
