Boy Bank Embezzler Given
 Light Sentence by Landis

CHICAGO, April II. - Federal Judge K M Landis today sentenced James Carey, 19 year old bank clerk, of Ottawa, Ill, convicted of em- bezzlement, to serve one year in the national training school for boys at Washington, D. c.
 Carey's theft of $96,000 from the bank by which he was employed last November drew from Judge Landis the comment that the bank directors by paying him a small sal ary were partly responsible. This occasioned widespread criticism of the judge and was the cause for a demand for his impeachment by Senator Lee s. Overman of North Carolina The judges action in al lowing the boy to return to his home pending sentencing also caused much adverse comment.

FORMER EMPRESS OF GERMANY DIES AT D00RN WITH FIX KAISER
 AND SON ADALBERT AT BEDSIDE

DOORN, Holland, April l1.-F'or- mer Empress Auguste Victoria of Germany died here this morning at 6 o'clock. just one year after she was stricken with her first attack of heart disease
 s Her husband, Wilhelm, former Kaiser; and former Prince Adalbert were at her bedside when the end came
 Funeral services will be held to- morrow with only immediate mem bers of the family present and the body will be taken to Potsdam for burial Wednesday.
 Collapse of the Central Powers and the vicissitudes of war that drove former Emperor William of Germany and his consort into practical exile in Holland in November, 1918, was the lowering of the curtain in the life of the once beautiful Empress and Queen of Prussia. Augusta Vic toria. who for nearly forty years. had been the most beloved hausfrau of the German people.
 Yearned to Return
 In the Netherlands, where she and her husband resided first at Amer ongen and then at DOorn, the former Kaiserin's long continued illness was made more grave by her yearning to erturn to Berlin and Potsdam. On several occasions, since her resi- dence in Holland, members of her family had been summoned to her bedside in anticipation of her death but she rallied and survived.
 The ex-Empress' grayest cloud, next to the abdication of William II, was the tragic death of her son. Prince Joachim, who committed sui eide by shooting himself in Berlin in 1920. She was never informed. it is said. that Joachim had taken his own life. Another depressing event which haunted her, was the Russian revolution and the fate that befell Emperor Nicholas and his family, with all of whom, before the war. she had been on the kindliest terms.
 Led Simple Life
 Augusta Victoria was notable chiefly for her interest in charitable work and in the betternent of the living conditions of the German poor It has been said of her that she was not an especially gifted woman and that she cared more for the simple duties of home life than for royal functions.
 It is not known that she exercised any considerable influence politically or that she desired 10 do so. Her talents seemed. instead to be di rected to the task of becoming a helpful wife and a devoted mother to her six sons and one daughter
 Concerning the attitude of the former Empress toward the wal little is known.
 Believed Germany Right
 Some indication of her point of view was given in her reply in July 1918, to a letter written by the wife

American Legion Awaiting
 Outcome of Bergdoll Case

WASHINGTON, D. C., April H. fair in what the American Legion is waiting for, according to Colonel F. w. Gailbraith, Jr., National Com mander, who declares that the re- lease of Carl Neuf and Frank Zim- mer, sergeants in the Army of Occu patton and under confinement in a German jail for their attempt to ar rest Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, is but a step in clearing up the situa- tion involving the arch stacker.
 Colonel Galbraith said that the whole rank and file of the Legion de- lnands that Bergdoll be returned to this country to serve the sentence imposed upon him for evading the draft.
 Considerable pressure was brought to bear on the Secretary of War by the Legion's National Legislative Committee in it's successful effort to effect the release of the two Amer ican soldiers. Paris post raised funds for counsel to defend them and posts all over the country aided with contributions.
 A resolution of the Legions Ma tional Executive Committee express ed the regret of Legion members that an apology was made by the Government for the attempt of the two sergeants to capture Bergdoll. Since that time a number of state departments and posts of the ex- service mems organization have passed resolutions demanding that the Government force Bergdoll to return to this country.
