expressed his concurrence with the
proposal to approach President Will
son.
KAISER'S FIRST SURRENDER
In the afternoon, mt Won Hintzc's
suggestion, an order of His Majesty
was sent to the Chancellor. who had
arrived in the meantime. for the intro
duction of the parliamentary system, in
Germany. G.H.Q. did not know of this
order, until after its publication. Count
Hertling thought himself unable 80
carry it out, and resigned. The seach
now began in Berlin for the new Par
Hmentary Chancellor. 1t was curious
proceeding, in which the Sovereign
abandoned all Initiative.
To my inquiry when the new gov
eminent would be formed and in a
position to come to decisions, and when
the note would be agreed with our
allies and ready for dispatch. Won
Hintze answered with the date of Tues
day. October l.
For the time held fast to this limit.
Ludendorff tells tomorrow of the vast
sensation i'm Germany when he made
known to the Reichstag the real con-
ditions at the front. He had not in
tended to make things rs clear as he
did and regretted that the Entente
quickly learned of his pessimism.

DID NOT LIKE THE DELAY

UP to this moment l had assum ed
that CHIC. would have to discuss the
further steps that it thought necessary
with the existing, Chancellor and Sec
rotary for foreign affairs. A change
in these offices at this moment would
OF necessity bring delay, confusion and
disadvantage. With such deep changes
"a government is bound to lose continu-
lty and the grip of business for a time
To whatever conclusion His Majesty
might come, of course, the government
would remain to G.HQ the govern
ment. however changed it might be
in form or personnel. The incoming
Ministers would be fully conscious of
the responsibility they would bear if
they took office in the existing situa-
ton. CHIC. would have to urge it's
views upon the new government lust
as it would have done on the old, and
would have to ensure, If an honorab BILE
armistice were really obtainable. that
the army did not suffer by reason of
the change of government.
In spite of my obligations, Won Hintze
regarded a change of our whole system
of government as essential. He did not
think it would be difficult to carry out.
| was unable to form any views as to
this. as l was not au crurant of affairs
in Berlin.
The Secretary further informed us
mat TIC PioPoSdl " approach the
Queen of Holland had not been carried
out, and that no other steps had been
taken toward securing peace. Nothing
positive, thus, had been done
TELLS KAISER OF DECISION
After this explanation. the Field
Marshal and | explained the military
position and our views as to the armis-
tice conditions. Won Hintze thought the
best course was to approach President
wilson with proposal for an armis-
tice and peace. The Swiss Ambassa-
dor in Washington had again spoken to
our government of Wilson's high ideals
1t was clear. of course, that com
munications with Paris and London via
washington were bound to work slowly
and that an armistice could not be Sc
cured by such means at a moments
notice. but only after a lapse of time.
The Field-Marshal and were quite
in agreement with what Won Hintze
said, and we fully agreed with his pro-
posal. although we suggested that an
identical note with that to Wilson
should be sent, for information. to the
English and French.
After the discussion we went at once
to His Majesty, who had come from
Cassel to Spa. Won Hintze gave the
same explanation to the internal situa-
ton. adding his proposals as to the
offer of President Wilson for an arm
istice and peace. The Field Marshal
then described the military situation
which 1 shortly confirmed.
His Majesty was unusually CALM He

Storm Stops HANGING.

An eighteenth century execution on
Kensington common was stopped for
q time owing to n strange cause. On
August 10, 1853, two days before the
date of the execution, heavy fog came
over London, accompanied by thunder
and lightning and torrents of rain.
These conditions lasted for nearly
4S hours, and many people believed
that the last day had arrived. When
the time fixed for the execution ar.
rived the assembled crowd cried shame
on the sheriff for hanging a man when
the world was coming to an end.
AS he persisted in his preparations,
they burst through the barriers and
stopped the proceedings, shouting that
the culprit might as well wait few
minutes, when the grand summons
would come for all.
The sheriff had TO obtain the assist
ance of n force Of soldiers before the
execution could be carried out.--Lon-
don Chronicle.

SOME OLD-TIME BIG CATTLE
One English OK, History Shows,
Weighed $500 Pounds, Another
4,340 Pounds.

With all the modern Improvement
in breeds Of live stock it may be
doubted whether there Is living today
a steer or OK equal in size to some Of
the fat cattle Of olden times.
In 1S45 there was disposed OF by
rattle at Pratt's Old London inn, in
Taunton, England, giant OK of the
Devon breed that stood 10 hands high
and weighed 300 pounds. But this
one was not in 1t with the Durham OK
which earned q modest fortune for its
owner, John Day, and brought the now
famous ShOrthorn cattle into high re-
pute little more than a century ago.
A writer in the Mark Lane Express
described this extraordinary animal
as having weighed when two years old
$500 pounds, and when slaughtered
Mt eight years old his carcass dressed
2,47S pounds, while his live weight at
that time was stated to have been
4,340 pounds. He girthed II feet /
inch just behind the shoulders. His
owner exhibited him six years through
England and Scotland, having a van
for his conveyance about the country.
1t was in 1907 that Days OK dislocated
his hip and had to be killed.
Favorite, the sire of this bovine
wonder, was made famous by the pro-
digious size and remarkably fine form
of the steer. When Charles Colling Of
Darlington, who is regarded as the
founder of the Shorthorn breed, sold
all his cattle at auction in 1910,
Comet, six-year-old bull by Favorite,
brought $4,000, and six cows by him,
some of them eleven years old, made
an average Of S720, which was un-
heard of in those days and for many
years afterward.

HOW CAN YOU TELL YOUA
FAv0RITE TOBACCO?
As Plain as the Nose on Your
Face-Just Smell II

Smokers do not have to put tobacco
in their pipes to find out if they like it.
They can just rub the tobacco between
the palms OF their hands and smell it.
The nose is an infallible guide to smok-
ing enjoyment.
All smoking tobaccos employ some
flavoring "to improve the favour and
burning qualities of the leaves, to
quote the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Naturally, there is considerable differ
ence in the kind of flavorings used, and
the nose quickly detects this difference.
TUXEDO Tobacco uses the purest,
most wholesome, and delicious OF all
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. And the almost
universal liking for chocolate in a great
measure explains the widespread popu-
larity of TUXEDO Tobacco.
Carefully aged, old Burley tobacco,
plus a dash of pure chocolate, gives
TUXEDO Tobacco a pure fragrance
your nose can quickly distinguish from
any other tobacco. Try it and see.
