Berlin. Aug. rs.
The monarchists raised their heads
this week and gave republican Ger
many shock the reverberations of
which were felt across the Rhine as
far as Paris
Several thousand marching Bavari-
ans forgot they have a republican
government and also the lessons of
the late war and gave Marshal Won
Hindenburg a reception when he ar
rived in Munich which recalled the
early war enthusiasm.
Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria and Gen.
Ludendorff as usual shared the honors.
The old soldiers in civilian clothes but
in strict marching order paraded past
the former leader. Even the Reichs-
wehr did the goosestep.
Won Hindenburg told the assembled
university students that they must help
the fatherland rise out of its misery and
shame. Deutschland Ueber Allies was
the laundering response. while the Illegal
imperial colors fluttered in the breeze.
Four days before, on an hours notice.
similar demonstration was held. at
which 1000 gathered to protest against
the Bavarian Government conceding an
iota of their rights to Berlin for the
defense of the republic.
An ex-army captain, now well known
to newspaper correspondents. was recog
nzed by former comrade who assaulted
him. Others with sticks Joined in the
attack and clubbed the republican sense
less before the police could rescue him.
The demonstrations were symptomatic
of nationalist exaltation. which has been
aroused TO high pitch by the reparations
difficulties and the high cost of living.
Behind the movement are the mon
archists, whose program made a mod

are political babies. They hold deInon-
strations against Berlin. against the de-
fense OF the republic law without having
read IL. They blame their troubles on
international Jewish finance, on Berlin,
on Bolshevism. They have the idea that
everything would be golden again If the
monarchy were to return
But such demonstrations cannot have
wide political significance, as they are
Isolated in southern Bavaria. Some lead
ers OF the Catholic party. who sought TO
coduette with the French until lately,
have broken off their relations.
There is bitterness against the French
in Munich, which makes the speaking OF
French in the streets unsafe. The fear
of the moderates is that unless general
conditions improve such blind agitation
will break out In wild riots and mon
archist uprisings this winter.

The story of a horrible sea monster is
told by group of Jersey fishermen who
returned to- port several days ago from
a fishing excursion. They declared that
while they were fishing two huge ten
tacles reached out of the sea. One
twined itself about the mast while the
other reached out and clutched the leg
of Frank Duhamel. one Of the fishermen.
The fishermen were frozen with nor

being dragged from the boat, reused
them. They seized their knives and axes
and slashed and chopped at the ten
tacles until they were withdrawn.
The men arrived in port in a state of
great excitement and declared that their
story was not exaggerated. They were

Cherbourg's smiling baby. who at

daughter OF wealthy farmer. but who

bourg nuns when the mutilated corpse
OF a two-year-old girl was identified by
the Picards as their daughter. again

Not once since il was found wander

home did not solve the mystery. and

Dublin, Aug. 26.
The ambuscades which the Irish re-
publican army developed to a high
degree against the British prior 10
the signing of the treaty are now the
chief weapon of the rebels and have
finally brought death to the chieftain
who was largely responsible for the
use of ambuscades.
Collinss army was always ready to
fight in the open, but it was young
and inexperienced in regulation battle
tactics. But the weapon watch the
ardent nationalists used against an
external enemy is likely 20 prove a
moose around the necks of the ir-
regulars who are seeking 70 undo the
work of those nationalists.
The Irish countryside, especially In
the South, offers many opportunities
with it's hedges, bitches, walls and hills
where a few men are able to conceal
themselves and pour forth a disastrous
fire against passing lorries. Only the
irregulars' inability to shoot straight,
their fear OF taking risks and their
ignorance of ordinary tactics have saved
the nationalists from paying larger
toll.
While observers have noticed a daily
Improvement in the general bearing
of the courageous young Free State
soldiers they lack the aggressiveness
necessary to wipe out the ambassadors
However. they are being greatly helped
by the farmers and townspeople who
tad fa bat
them informed of the activities of the
irregulars, and with better tactical
knowledge 1t is believed that the Free
State troops will soon be able to cope
with the situation.
Tho improved discipline of the nation-
alists Is making encircling movements
possible and the ambassadors may flnd
that they are not even taken prisoners.
a thing which will not fail TO bring suc-
cess because the ambassadors do not
take too many chances.
The theory of the rebels is that they
will break the morale OF the Free State
troops with their ambuscades but actu-
any this is having the opposite effect,
and IL IL continues II probably will lead
to the defeat of the rebels.
The men who are doing the ambush
ing are largely men who fought the
black and tans while the nationalist
troops are composed of enlisted men
fighting for the Free State, but the
latter are learning quickly.
Observers agree that the final test
will come this winter when instead Of
receiving help and comfort from the
villagers. as they did in the days when
they fought the black and tans. the
rebels will get nothing except what they
are able to take by force.
Collins's DEATH though a great loss to
the troops. promises to have the effect
of hardening the hearts of the people
against the irregulars, thus making 1t
an easier task for the nationalists to
wipe them out. The sudden and tre-
mendous feeling against the rebels fur
ther destroys their chances Of resorting
to their old tactics. so that the nation
alists are less liable to fall into traps.
