emperor; Bismark, Moltke and other
Prussian generals and princes, es-
sembled for a religion service. Az
ter the sermon was preached the
king read patent establishing the
empire, and Bismarck followed with
the proclamation, which concluded:
"May God grant us and our success
sors ever to be increasers of the
German empire, not by warlike con-
quests. but with the graces and gifts
of peace for the national well being,
for freedom and civilization"
Cheers for the new emperor were
led by the Grand Duke of Baden.
1t was at Mismarck's lodgings in
the Rue de Provence, Versailles
that he negotiated the peace treaty
preliminaries with the French rep.
resentatives. Theirs and Favre. The

belt and contents were concealed by
his large overcoat.
The man was just beginning to do
u good business when in putting one
of the bottles back into the belt hur-
riedly as an officer turned the cor

second or so liquor from the bottle
leaked out and ran down the outside

OF the flowing booze attracted the
attention Of the officer who searched
the suspected men and discovered
the loaded belt still containing 10
half pint bottles OF whiskey. The
bootlegger was arrested.

OF GERMAN
FLEET NOTHING new

London, Jan. 11.--The Bishop of
Durham has found an historical pre-
cedent for the surrender Of the Ger
man fleet in the pages of Livy. That
ancient chronicler tells how, as an
article OF the peace agreement
which ended the second Punic war,
Carthage had to surrender to Rome
the whole of her battle fleet.
Rome, the article points out, was
the great military power and Garth
age was the great naval power Of
antiquity, just as Germany and Eng
land in modern times. Rome beat
Carthage--the soldier beat the sail
or. In the conflict Rome revealed
an extraordinary adaptability for
naval warfare. and Carthage grave
internal weakness.
