NAPOLEON GOT HIS.

Premier Clemenceau's repeated
statements to the effect that he
would not accept the salary paid
to members of the French Academy
after he has taken his seat among
the ''Immortals,, . recalls the fact
that Napoleon never failed to collect
this same stipend, says an Associated
Press correspondent, writing from,
Paris.
There has been found among the
Napoleonic records the emperor's
personal daybook, in which were
minutiously inscribed all receipts
and disbursements. The 1906 vol
ume begins thus:
Salary of his Imperial and Roy
al Majesty as Member of the In
stitute, 1900 francs"
Not one of the academicians, least
of all Clemenceau, who have occu.
pied seats under the cupola across
the Bridge of Arts since the days
of Richelieu can boast of an item
similar TO the second one in Ma,
poleon's budget. 1t read:
French civil list, Emperor Ma
poleon, 25,00O,O0O francs"

ITALIANS GET AID
FROM SOLDIERS WHO
FOUGHT WITH YANKS

NAPLES.-Tens of thousands Of
checks amounting to millions of
dollars each month are being sent
to relatives here by the Italo-Am-
orleans who served in the American
army. Therefore the money receiv-
ed from American soldiers allot-
ments, war risk insurance benefits,
and United States Government com
pensation constitutes one of the
chief sources of income for South
ern Italy at the present time. Of
the thousands of Italo-Americans
in the American army, the great
majority were from Southern Italy,
which has furnished the bulk of
Italian emigrants to the United
States.
At the present rate of exchange
of almost ten lire to the dollar,
these checks yield profitable rev.
enue to Italy. 1t is widely known
fact that thousands of families in
Southern Italy today are being
largely supported by such contribu-
tons from the treasury of the Unit
ed States.

BOLSHEVIK RULE.

The Polish government is com
piling the story of the atrocities
committed under the Bolshevik
reign in the city of Minsk. now oc-
cupied by the Poles. The latest,
brought by an American Red Cross
worker who has just returned to
Warsaw from a relief assignment in
that newly occupied city. concerns
the murder of a woman hospital as
sistant who was rash enough to ex-
press the hope that conditions would
improve when the town fell to the
Poles.
The director of the hospital in
question, smarting under an Hide
served rebuke administered to him
by a surly official of the Red regime,
warned the latter that the arrival
of the Poles would bring a change
for the better For this he was
deported to Smolensk. His woman
assistant, who ventured a little fur
Their in expressing her opinion, was
shot into a grave on the dawn be-
fore the taking of the city by the
Polish army.
When visited by workers of the
American Red Cross commission to
Poland, the hospitals and orphanages
of the city were found in such
pressing need of food that many
of them had been obliged to close.
One home for war orphans had
been without so much as a crust o.
bread for more than a week. Many
others had suffered similar priva-
tons According to reports on in
designations, only outside aid can
rescue these people from the chaos
of terror and suffering in which
they are submerged.

concerts which have been magnif1-

attendance-a rank failure. What Is
the matter with the people of Wash

orchestras carry from $4,000 to 81. 900

Of an orchestra which. If given the
proper support by the people, will be
surpassed by none IN the country and
there has been In the neighborhood of

tion for President?
A loud. hearty and contagious
laugh sounded through the corri-
dors of the Hotel Belvedere.
Mr.. Taft, assuming that the laugh
was open to too many implications.
elaborated it a little. He looked the
reporter over and then said:
You are truly humorous"
We have heard some fiattering
things" the interviewer was about
to continue.
Yes. but they were saidby Demo-
Gratis" said Mr.. Taft.
Mr.. Taft then explained that no.
body is offering him the Presidency
or the nomination. Asked about the
league Of nations plan. Mr.. Taft
said:
Il hope It will pass In such form
as will not require a reconference
Of the nations. am opposed to the
amendments that would open up ne
gotiations again. The Hughes amend
ments would not require further ac-
ton by the nations"
Mr.. Taft explained that he had
been lecturing on the subject. and
that he had an engagement to speak
on the subject after leaving here.
What he Is really looking for
ward to is q resumption Of his regu-
lar lectures at Yale. where he Is a
professor. He explained that he is
not in politics. but that he was
anxious to see Coolidge win in
Massachusetts, and to see the Re-
publican party victorious every
where. As to the Maryland situa-
tion, he said that he had given no
thought to it.
Behind the wish of Taft to see
Governor Coolidge win is also the
big hope Of the National Republican
Committee. Recently the stock OF
Knox, Harding. Lowden. Watson and
Lodge. prospective standpat candi-
dates for the Presidency. has depre-
ciated. The Johnson boom in the

with considerable evidence to back
