that for which the kaiser and Ger

thrown off autocracy in the revolu-
ton of 1898, and was the home Of the
new spirit of democracy which was
seeking an outlet in Europe. France
was surrounded by enemy nations
or rather enemy reigning families

new order. Napoleon was the cham
pion of democratic France. even after
he had become emperor. His till
was given as Emperor of the French
Republic" sometimes a curious anon
ally when il is considered. On the
other hand the kaiser and his Ger
man armies were the foe of demo-
cratic form of government, of demo-
cratic society. The German had
this tremendous force arrayed against
him. 1t was when Napoleon. drunk
with power, finally turned absolutely
from the things of democracy that
he. too, fell.
Napoleon realized his mistake after
he had been incarcerated in St
Helena. He is reported to have said

Europe and the old autocratic order.

Napoleon's prophecy has nearly come
to pass.

for the most part. been calculated to
discourage such evil genuises in the

brought about his downfall-probably
in London.
The proposed trial of the former
kaiser. and the situation in which the
world finds itself with regard to this
latest war lord, recalls wildly the
situation of Napoleon Bonaparte after
his defeat in 1915 and what course
was taken with him by the nations

Napoleon was never brought to triai

BLOCH TELLS OF
SURRENDER OF
GERMAN FLEET
After Service in the Navy for
Eighteen Months, Thompson Man
Can Spin a Yarn-Homc on Fur.
Tough.

Some interesting incidents relative
to the surrender of the German fleet
are related by William Bloch, Of the
U. S. S.. Florida, son Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Louis Bloch Of Thompson, and
nephew of Hans Anderson Of this
city. MI. Bloch is spending a short
furlough with his parents.
Mr.. Bloch, who has been in the
naval service for about eighteen
months was assigned to the U. S. S.
Florida about three months after his
enlistment, and has been on that
battleship eve since. The b%attleship
between the Forth river and the coast
Of Norway, a portion of the water,
Mr.. Bloch said, that was fairly infest-
ed with German subs and mines.
I'VE got at least five subs" he said,
land probably more. When the
depth bombs we sent after the sub
merged sub, sent up water which was
dirty and oily and filled with debris
we knew hat we had tent the frag-
ments of the sub to the depths" He
described the Edison depth bomb as
loaded with fifty pounds of T. N. T.,
and as the most! deadly of missiles.
The hammer in which a large bat
tleship avoided a torpedo aimed at
it, was described by Mi. Bloch as one
of the "thrillers" that a sailor would
lot want to miss, but was not anxious
to experience again.
The t~orpedoes, Mr.. Block said,
were not aimed directly at the ship,
but ahead of the ship and so timed,
that with the ship going full speed
ahead, the torpedo will strike the
ship. When the ship sights the tor
pedo, in order to turn from it's path,
Mr.. Bloch said that by a readjust-
ment Of propellers. the ship was
swung around at an angle of forty
five degrees, and the turn was. so
sudden that it was practically on its
side with one end fairly well out of
the water. This turn, he said, could
be made when the ship was going at
a speed of % knots.
Mr.. Bloch was with the squadron
that participated in the capture OF
the German fleet. The fleet, he said,
came into the Firth of Forth as far
as May Island, and the Allied feet
met the ships there and conducted
them into port. The U. S. S. Florida.
Mr.. Bloch said, conducted the Goenig
Albert.
While in service Mr.. Bloch has Wis
tied Norway, England, Scotland and
France. He said hat the men were
granted various furloughs and had an
opportunity to visit parts Of these
countries. He was in England when
President Wilson landed, and was Oh
the Florida when it went out to meet
the presidents boat. Mr.. Bloch was
a musician on the Florida.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never

Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from drug
gists who are constantly in direct
touch with the public. there is one
preparation that has been very sue
cessful in overcoming these condi
tons. The mild and healing influence
of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its
remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one Of
the prominent Life Insurance Com
panies, in an interview of the subject,
made the astonishing statement that
one reason why so many applicants
for insurance are rejected is because
kidney trouble is so common to the
American people, and the large ma
jority Of those whose applications are
declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease. 1t is on sale at all
drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
