STORY OF THE FALL OF FORMER KAISER
 READS LIKE ROMANCE

PARIS, April 24.-Now that the dust of crumbling thrones that wrecked whole dynasties in their fall has somewhat cleared, that En- perors, Czars, Kings, Grand Dukes, Archdukes, and Princelings have abandoned the tottering structure of Central Europe, it may not be uninteresting to compare the pres ent condition of these rulers with that which they occupied six months ago.
 The story of the fall of the house of Hohenzollern would fill volumes. It is far cry from the dreams of world dominion, the dictation of peace in shining helmet and spurred boots arrayed in the Palace of Yer sailles, to the little villa hidden among the lowlands of Holland Morose and taciturn, William Hohen- zollern, second and last of the name, is awaiting the judgment of the Peace Conference within the narrow confines of the estate of one of the few men in this world who still have the courage to term themselves his friends. The only recreation from which this former Emperor seems to derive any pleasure or so- lace from his shattered dreams is in wood-chopping. He still main tains quite close relations with the present German government. His staff, and his servants, are paid by the "Hoffmarschallamt" in Berlin as was the case when he was em- peror The number of his attend ants, however, has been greatly re duced but what is left of them arc still state officials. A few weeks ago Herr Hohenzollern appeared to be in financial straits but his exchequeI has been replenished by remittanceS from Germany.

GREAT RECORD
 MADE BY COAST ON U. s. LOANS
Review Given of the vari- out Loans and the Fact Demonstrated That the
 People Did Their Bit.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 30-An enviable record in oversubscribing four Liberty Loans faces the Twelfth Federal Reserve district as the local committees of the seven States and two Territories in the district make their plans to eclipse during the Vic. tory drive the marks which were established under the stress of ac- tual fighting on the Western front.
 Upon each previous call by the Government the Twelfth District has gone over it's quota. In the first country entered the war the quota of this district was $143,644 950. At the end of the campaign the dis trict had subscribed $175, ,93a more than $30,000,0oO in excess of | what had been asked or an over subscription of 22.24 per cent.
 The quota set flo rthe Twelfth District at the beginning of the see ond loan in the Fall of 1917 was | $210 100000 and again the district l pau 5dNI ihO ob' tA hiiiC'A' more than was asked by buying | $293, ,160,50O, the total of excess sub scriptions amountingE to $40,000, ,000 or an oversubscription of almost l forty per cent, the best record made i for any of the four previous drives. When the Governnlent called for the Third loan early in 1918 the quota assigned to the Twelfth dis | trict was the same as in the second drive and for a third time the dis trict did more than it's allotted share | by taking S2S7,975,000 an oversub-
 scription of 9713 per cent. The Ter | ritory of Alaska carried off the ban | ner for the best showing making a
 subscription of 252 per cent. of the quota given her Arizona came next with a subscription amounting to
 213 per cent of her quota and Ne
 vada followed with total of 1S6
 per cent. of her quota.
 The Fourth loan last September more than doubled the amount Of | any of the previous loans and gave this district a quota of s402000,099
 The district raised $462,250,000 or an oversubscription of IA per cent | Alaska again captured first place
 for oversubscribing it's quota taking | 232 per cent. of the amount asked | During the four loans 4,550.304
 people have subscribed for bonds
 each loan finding an increased mum Der of supporters. There were AGO, 900 subscribers to the First loan 624,654 to the Second loan; 1,402. .585 to the Third loan and 2,123.0G3 tc
 the Fourth loan. The population oi the seven States and two Territor
 ies, Washington oregon. California
 Utah, Nevada, Idaho, Arizona. Alas ka and Hawaii is 5,338,750. The percentage of the population of the
 district was 32S9 for the first loan 54.91 for the second, 5393 for the third and S471 for the Fourth loan
 With better terms to offer pur
 chasers in the Victory Loan local
 committees throughout the Twelfth Federal Reserve district have report
 ed to general headquarters in San Francisco that they are sure of over subscribing the district, quota of s301. 300. .O00 during the campaign for | the Fifth war loan.
