BERLIN, Jan. 14.-The German peace
delegation in Paris to-day submitted to
the Allied Council Of Ambassadors q
note from the German government at
tempting to prove that the Poles are
planning the military seizure Of Upper
Silesia before the plebiscite in that
district can be held.
A copy of the note has been handed
TO the Foreign Offices in Paris, London
) and Rome.
The note was accompanied by trans
lations of thirty-fcur Polish military
orders, most Of them marked secret
or strictly secret" and addressed to
the Polish commander across the Sile-
sian frontier. These orders are signed
by Captain Machinewski, of the War
, saw command for Upper Silesian af-
fairs. The dates of the documents ex-
! tend from September 8 to December
"a. Photographs accompany the other
documents.
The German note points out that the
documents prove that peace in Upper
Silesia is being endangered by the
Poles and it appeals to the Allied
powers to prevent an outbreak, which
apparently is planned for the middle Of
January, and thus forestall the greater
evil of civil war.
plans of Poland for training fighters
across the frontier in the use of rifles,
pistols and grenades, also in the use
of explosives for destroying bridges.
The documents show that ti,e upris-
ing originally was planned for the end
of September, when it was thought
that the plebiscite was going to be
held in the middle of October, but
captured circular to Polish agents SAYS
that action had been postponed owing
TO the further delay in holding the
plebiscite.
The documents indicate the points
ut which munition depots are to be es-
tablished along the Silesian frontier
and divulge plans for quickly distrib-
uting arms and ammunition when the
word is given for action.
One of the documents appears to con-
meet the French military with the Po-
lish plans. This order, dated at Sos
novice, November 16, directs that six
teen respectable quarters shall be pre-
pared for French officers arriving from
Cracow to inspect the frontier.
Other orders indicate that the Polish
secret organization has been extended
widely in Silesia. Former soldiers in
General Haller's army are mentioned
as quartered at various points and held
ready for action.
Several of the orders mention special
mil tary training courses at Sosnowice,
to which Poles from SiIesia go back
and forth unhindered. The latest of
sthe documents says that the training
would be completed January 3, and
after that date five especially trust
worthy men would be sent into each
district to take in hand "the further
work.

A thief or thieves entered Mrs.
Henry n Miller's yard last Thursday
night and stole and destroyed num-
Der of beautiful buds. Mrs Miller
spends great deal of time in cultivat-
ed flowers, and the ladies of the town,
es pecially, know exactly how she felt
when she discovered her yard had been
entered aud flowers stolen. The prin-
'ciple of stealing a horse and smaller
articles, is just the same. Therefore,
a person who will steal flowers would
