SCOUTS HAVE A MODEL CAMP.

Glen Everman, commenting on the
big scout encampment at Cloudcroft,
Tex. said some fine things about the
scouts who attended this remarkable
powwow.
"We had a uniform going-to-bed and
eetting-up time as we'll as regular eat
ing and drilling hours. There wasn't
a single fight during the entire encamp-
ment, and every lad behaved himself
like man. We had boys from Texas,
New Mexico, Arizona, California and
Maine.
We had Jews, Catholics and Protest
ants. The son of millionaire and the
son of very poor man bunked in the
same tent. The largest member of the
camping party tipped the scales at 235
pounds, while many of the youths
weighed between IS and 80 pounds.

lieve the most successful ever hello

RELEASE OF JENKINS
is DEMANDED BY U. S.
Mexico Warned Against Fur
ther Molestation Of Con-
suIar Agent.

Washington. Mexico was warned
Friday by the American government
that any further molestatlon Oh y" IL
liam O Jenkins, the American consul
lar agent at Puebla, who recently was
lidnaned bv bandits, would seriously
affect the relations between the Unit
ed States and Mexico, for which the
government of Mexico must assume
sole responsibility
Coupled with the warning was d ue'
mand for the immediate release OIL Tue
consular agent who was rearrested
Tuesday on charges in connection with
his abduction and ransom in the sum
of $50 900 gold. Official reports that
Jenkins had again been imprisoned at
Puebla reached the state department
Wednesday from the American en-
bassy at Mexico, which was instruct
ed to transmit a note demanding MS
release. The departments action was
made known in the following an
nouncement:
"The department of state today sent
a note to the Mexican foreign of1lce
through the American embassy at
Mexico City, calling for the Immediate
release of William 0. jenkins, the
American consular agent at Puebla
"The note, which is based on the
rearrest of Consular Agent jenkins al
Puebla, points out that the United
States government is surprised and IN
censed to learn of the reimprisonment
of Mr.. Jenkins, particularly in view OF
the suffering and losses already sus
tanned by him in connection with his
kidnapping through lack OF protection
by the Mexican authorities and in con
nection with his first arrest by Next
can officials.
"The note expresses the view, based
ON information in possession OF the
department of state, that his rearres
is absolutely arbitrary and unwar
ranted and warns the Mexican govern
ment that further molestation OF the
consular agent will seriously affec
the relations between the United
States and Mexico, for which the gov
eminent of Mexico must assume soil
responsibility"

NeuSchwanstein, however, was built
on much larger and more magniti-
cent scale than the Wartburg. 1t is
splendidly fitted up throughout, and
from its windows there are surprising
ly beautiful views of the HOhen-
schwangau, the Alp-See. little lake
far below, and the wild gorge of the
POllat.
Visitors ascend to the Showrooms,
which are on the third floor, by means
of a stairway in the main tower, which
juts up to height Of nearly 200 feet.
The Wagnerian leanings, which were
so important part of King Ludwig's
life, are evidenced again by series of
frescoes, showing scenes from the life
of Siegfried, Tannhaeuser, LOhengrin
and Parsifal, and from the lives OF
those two familiar figures in the "Meis-
tersinger," Hans Sachs and Walter
Won der Vogelweide, which adorn the
magnificent apartments of the third
floor. In the gothic bed chamber, Wag-
ner again comes to the fore, for 1t is

Product of Wild Extravaganza.
Linderhof, another of Ludwig's fam
tastic palaces, is some seventy miles
from Munich. Like Neuschwanstein, it
also is in the Bavarian highlands, sew
en- miles from the famous town OF
Oberammergau, renowned all over the
world for it's Passion Play" Under
hof is in the rocco style, and was
built between 1869 and 1879 when
! Ludwig was at the height of his wild
career of corresponding. Its princi-
pal feature is the beautiful gardens
that surround it, which attract large
numbers of tourists, who combine a
| trip to the castle with visit to Ober-
ammergau.
| In these gardens is bronze equeS-
TRAN statue of Louis XIV of France,
evidence of the mad Bavarian mon
arch's hallucination that there was
something in common between him and
the great French ruler. This crops up
again in the decorations of the interior
of the palace, which include series
of portraits of French celebrities of
the time of Louis XIV and his sue
cessor, Louis XIV.
The third of the series of Ludwig
IFS "follies" is Herrenchiemsee, an i'm
itation of the great palace Of Versailles,
situated on an island in the Chiemsee,
small lake fifty-seven miles southeast
of Munich. Dollman and Hoffman, two
of the architects who built Neuschwan-
stein (the former also did Linderhof) i,
were engaged by Ludwig to design
Herrenchiemsee. They worked on it
between 1878 and 1885, but left it I'M
completed as by that time the Bava-
rians had had enough of the kings
wild ways and were getting ready to
lock him up.
Herranchiemsee is built on three
sides of square, in which are fine
fountains-without wafer, though for
many years. In the vestibue is a
beautiful group of enameled peacocks
these birds were great favorites with
Ludwig. From the vestibule opens a
court paved with marble, on the right
of which is staircase splendidly
adorned with marble. stucco and paint
ings.

old. A great French Psychologist,
Mariette Bey, discovered the statue at

lures, says the New York Times, were

In fact, so large and sumptuous are
they, so hOpelessly beyond the modest
needs of the Bavarian royal family
did they prove, that for a long time
their only use was to provide little
revenue through the fees charged to
the thousands of visitors who passed
yearly through their spacious halls.
The palaces in question are Neu-
schwanStein, Linderh0f and Herren-
chiemSee, all three built by the "mdd
king Ludwig IL of Bavaria, who
reigned from 1864 to his tragic death
in 1886, and cost Bavaria such huge
sums by his extravaganza that he was
finally .deposed and locked up as in
curably insane
During the time that Ludwig was
pouring out his own and the states
funds in rebuilding old castles and
building the new ones that were to
make his name synonym for extrav-
agance he was bound in intimate
friendship with Richard Wagner, the
famous composer. The signs of this
friendship may be seen in one of the
castles, Neuschwanstein, where there
are many paintings of scenes from the
legends upon which Wagner based his
world-famous operas.

ria. Hohenschwangau was the favor
lite residence of the mad King Ludwig
but, firing of staying long in one place
he conceived the idea of building an
other castle-palace, in the manner OF
the kings of the middle ages. His eye
fell upon precipitous> crag close to
Hohenschwangau and there, between
1869 and 1886, arose the splendid pal
ace which ranks as the greatest of al
the many monuments to Ludwig's
building mania. It's name, Neusch

nearby castle of Hohenschwangau was
formerly called Schwanstein.

Biologists disagree as to the origin

have written on the subject appear
to believe that the oil is of animal
and vegetable origin. 1t is conjectured
to be mainly the fat of fishes, reptiles
and animals that lived and died ages
ago. 0il-bearing plants or seeds may
have contributed to the total supply.
The subject is wrapped in mystery.
