Germany Dukes and

CorresnOndent

Berlin, Oct. l8.-German royalty
is beginning to recover from the
blow inflicted by the revolution. One
by one, the former dukes and princes
creep forth from their hiding places
and assert their claim to place
in the sun.
For instance, Karl Eduard, for
fer Duke of Coburg- appeared
in the Gotha civil court yesterday
and filed suit against the state of
Gotha for the recovery of his for
tune which was conhscated by the
local government last July after he
had refused to accept 100000
marks as final settlement for his
property.
Similar action has been taken in
the court Of Arolsen by the former
Prince of Valdez Pyrmont.
The fate of the former kaiser's
properly and that of his family is
still in doubt. The Prussian gov
eminent has just made an order
authorizing former officials of the
imperial family to continue the ad-
ministration of the many landed
estates and forests owned by Will
liam II and his relatives. The order
cautiously provides for possible inn
perial lawsuits by authorizing the
officials concerned to represent their
former masters in court.

SULTAN LEAVES
HIS MORO HAREM
TO u. S. Marine
Sergeant Surprised When No.
titled That Estate Of Ruler
Who Adopted Him as
Son includes Women.
BY Universal Service.

San Francisco, Oct. l8.-Serg.
Robert A. Mclean OF the marine re-
cruiting station, No. "a East Tween
ty-third street, New York. and
former San Franciscan, recently fell
1eir to a surprise legacy, featuring
90 wives among its ASSESSOR liza
bilities.
Sergeant Mclean is a son of the
late DIR. Robert A. Mclean, profess
sor emeritus OF clinical and opera
tive surgery, University of Cali
fornia.
Mclean spent two of his many
years OF service in the southern ISL
ands of the Philippine group. In
stead of using his spare time Ian
gushing for the friends back in the
states Mclean made new ones of
different race and decidedly differ
ent color. He learned the language
and chummed with the reputedly
fierce Moros to such an extent that
re was formally adopted by the sui
tan OF Llang-Llang, small island
off the coast Of Borneo.
Mclean is Surprised.
And now that same dusky ruler
has died and bequeathed his various
holdings to this American soldier
and there is hafem.
Mclean is surprised. The days
and incidents connected with his
long stay in LANG Lang had grown
dim in his mind. But he is not at all
perplexed. On September % he
started on the long journey to take
possession of his Kingdom
The sultan's fondness for Mclean
grew to such an extent that he ex-
pressed the wish of making him his
legal son. Mclean did not take this
seriously. The old man was Sc.
But one day summons came. It
bade Mclean present himself with
two friends at the royal abode. Nc
Lean tells his experience this way:
Summoned Before Sultan.
II took Frank Korncum and Ser
geant Walter, of the marine corps,
now stationed in California, with
me. When we reached the sultan's
home we were ushered into the pub
lie hall, which was only a good
sized tent pitched on stills. There
I found the sultan, looking very
stately and important.
my friends and l were taken
into an adjoining room and dressed
, in long. flowing robes. We were
taken before the sultan, who first
barred his own chest and made a
little slash in it with Moro kris
and then made me bare my chest
while he cut the same size slash.
Taking a drop of blood from his
chest, he mixed il with drop of
my blood, and from then on | was
his adopted son. | left the next day,
and l have never seen him since.
Admits Some Are Pretty.
"And speaking of the harem. they
were off in quarters by themselves
and / never set eyes upon them.
Whether they we're as old as my
grandmother, or mere flappers, do
not know. Some of the native
women are quite pretty"
Mclean doesn't know whether he
will be called upon to enact the role
of q wealthy potentate, or merely
to assist in series of financial adj
justments in the settlement of the
sultan's estate. If there really is
nice. fat fortune, he says he knows
how to use it in New York.
But the harems
Mclean looks archly aside and
says he doesn't know.

MARY M'QUADE WRITES
TO GLENWOOD FRIENDS

The following interesting letter was
received by H. L. Torrey from Miss
Mary McQuade, who is spending her
vacation in California:
Los Angeles, Cal.
Feb. 2, 1919.
Dear Mr.. Torrey:
l hate to write you this letter for
fear of annoying you, but the time has
come when l must ask you a serious
question, the contemplation of which
has caused me many nights of rest
lessness and anxiety. You will under
stand my reluctance in writing you re-
garding the matter, when 1 tell you
that many lives have been upset by
similar trouble. Still l feel that you
should know the worst at once for in
all sincerity it means life or death to
me.
l shall not communicate the state of
my mind to anybody else as you know
most people are too busy to take inter
est in the trouble of others, so in my
distress 1 appeal to you, knowing what
you think of me. l know l am asking
a great deal of you, but while I con-
slider this l ask you to put aside all
social considerations of the question |
have to ask you. l hardly dare to get
up courage to ask you. Once more |
ask with the fullness of my heart and
ask you to help me decide this ques-
ton: Do you think jeff will grow to
be as tall as Mutt?
Best wishes.
MARY M'QUADE.

THE PASSION TO SPEND.

Congress is still thinking in eight figures
where it ought to be thinking in six. The fever
Ito spend the peoples money is little abated and
the treasury seems to be considered an mex
Ihaustible barrel that can never fail. An Arkan-
lsas representative proposes an appropriation OF
five million dollars for forty-eight national
cemeteries in as many states and fifty mlllona
Ito bring home the bodies of Americans who met
their death abroad. Another proposition is that
the remains of our soldiers be left in France and
la twenty -milion-dollar memorial be there
erected in their honor. It is not made clear on
what kind of a mausolem or mortuary structure
the huge sum is to be spent. In fact it would
require deep thought to discover how it could be
spent for such purpose For neither the state
ly tomb in Caria nor the exquisite Tai Mahal
at Agra, which love erected to the memory OF
the dead, or any other known monument or
cenotaph cost that prodigious sum. 1t would
seem to many people that wiser use OF the
money might be made, just now at least with
the world in it's present state.
Be this as it may, the time has clearly come
for congress to get realizing idea OF what
million dollars is. 1t has been easier to borrow
a billion heretofore than it will be for some
years or decades to come. Yet prohibit prob
ably will make another billion-dollar bond issue
necessary next year and it may require some
work to float it. The bonds already issued are
changing hands more rapidly than might be
wished and the presumption is that people viii
ling to take them are picking them up at bargain
prices. If, as stated, Willard, the deposed
champion of the prize ring, received eighty thou
sand dollars Of his share of the gate receipts In
Liberty bonds, it would seem to indicate that
the prime concern of congress should be to cur
tail the extravaganza which would force new
flotation.

Outstanding, that the right course on
great national questions is infinitely
more important than the practical
plans and details of the campaign.
His perception of the national de-
mand for the league of nations Is
sufficient evidence of the sobriety Of
his judgement and his respect for
essential principles, lost sight OF by
the wrangling members of his party.
He is new and attractive type of
the republican national chairman.
He works in the open. He works
for ideas. Let the praises OF past
time compare him with another once
celebrated Indiana republican mana
ger and recall the "blocks of five"
Men like Vance Mccormick and
Will Hays are sufficient notice to
the pessimist that our politics is not
growing worse but better. Without
wishing too well to Mr.. Hays efforts
for republican victory, any demo-
crat or Independent may admire and
like the man. He was brought up in
that famous school Of humanities,
Wabash college, whose president
said at the outbreak of the war that
II necessary he would mail up the
doors Of the college until the kaiser
had been put out Of business" He
was chairman Of the Indiana coun-
ell Of defense. He is q good Ameri-
can and good fellow. And he has
our sincere sympathy In his strug-
giles with the stiff-necked republi
can generation in the senate

CHAIRMAN HAYS.

New York Times: When Meredith
Nicholson told us in his sympathetic
and brilliant sketch of the fellow
Hoosier genius, Will Hays, tia.
Hays sole ambition Is 70 be sue
cess as the executive head of his
party" some believed and many
doubted. In Indiana, OF all places,
where those citizens not devoted to
literature are supposed to be incur
able political addicts, would nomi-
nation for great Office be waved
away by a political manager? The
thing was incredible and true. Yes
terday Mr.. Hays declared rnat he
would not be a candidate for COVER
nor. He was Committed to def
mite undertaking as chairman Of the
republican national committee" and
he was going to finish that job"
Apparently all the republican news
papers in the state and all sorts OF
republicans wanted him to run. He
was told that he needn't take any
personal share in his campaign. II
ever nomination was offered on a
silver salves this was one. Mr.. Hays
won't take it. He prefers the larger
task Of laboring for the success Of
the national republican party.
That shows that he likes uphill
work and is happier the more quar-
reIs he has to compose and the more
difficulties he encounters. He has,
one fancies. and his service as coun.
ty chairman, district chairman, state
chairman shows, the fitness for and
the artists enjoyment in the complex
art Of party management and cam
paign preparation. In his present
place he has constant need Of tact.
persuasion, diplomacy, in dealing
with party leaders; but, while his
personal qualities are felt to be en-
gaging by the thousands and hun
dreds Of thousands, 1t may be, of
men and politicians that he meets,
he understands, and he is different

A soNGLEss LAUREATE.

England has knotty problem which has
never troubled us. Ancient kings were as much
delighted as modern politicians to have their
praises whooped necessarily in the public ears
and to this end their official MINISTRIES and versi
fiers had place in royal retinues. Out of this
grew the practice begun in 1917 by Charles the
First by his appointment of Ben Jonson as
the poet attached to the royal household. Fol
lowing old Greek usage this eulogistic function
ary was entitled to wear, when the weather per-
mitted, laurel wreath or crown, and hence was
known as the poet laureated or laureate. Dry
den filed the Office in his turn at annual sal
airy of fifteen hundred dollars and butt of
sack. He was followed by series of now for
gotten singers who were such Indifferent pane
gyrists that the pay had fallen by the time that
Pye was named, and he, being dyspeptlc, thin
blooded bard, took one hundred and thirty five
dollars year in lieu of his ''terse of Canary
wine. - Tennyson also elected to take the money
and buy his own exhilarants preferring other
vintages to sack But he drew three hundred
and sixty dollars year aside from his allow
ance for potables, and did pretty well, his
formal illusions in honor Of the rel gning family
being rather creditable on the whole. After
his death Swinburne and Morris were passed
too radical for the job Of producing
formal and appropriate verses on birthdays and
state occasions. Later Kiplng who deserved
the honor, might have got it but that rookie in
one of his ballads had called Victoria the
''Widow of Windsor" and he was barred out
Watson was selected and he did the best he
could; and when he went the dusty way he was
succeeded by Robert Bridges, the incumbent
The trouble with Bridges-and to this the
foregoing historical review leads UPS that he
will not sing about birthdays or royal mar
riages Or British victories or anything else of
regal concern; and there is no known way of
compelling him to do He can sing and has
caroled on other occasions; but even when the
Princess Pat got married he never peeped.
And yet by an old enactment he should be re-
ceiving five hundred dollars annually and
''twenty fair casques Of good Canary wine, -
1T is understood, however, that he too takes the
cash instead Of the Canary and buys Herewith
the brand Of liquor that he likes best There
can be no rational objection to this. IF Bridges
can get more inspiration out of Port or a live
Her inflatus out of Madeira, he should be privil-
edged to do SO. But if he refuses as is suspect
ed to spur himself with any vinous verse pro-
moter but is simply saving up his money and
is thus unable to produce ode, the British
people have light to feel aggrieved
