people of the United States were getting
quite tired Of 1t and neutrality was be-
coming more and more of joke. Every
attack, every outrage every affront, was
widening the gap between the United
States and Germany. Washington might
keep up a diplomatic pretense of neutral
ity. Legally America was non-partisan.
But, whether they realized it or not, the
American people were storing up a flood
of dislike for Germany that, sooner or
later, would burst forth. And then, as
none other than Heinrich Friedrich AL
bert, the Commercial Attache to Ambas-
sador Bernstorff, insistently predicted,
Germany would have to fight America
and Germany would lose.

son, it would be well to try out a scheme
Of his that he had borrowed from Eng.
lish history. The idea was to send to
America a corps of whipping boys. The
whipping boy Jonnerson explained, came
officially into being somewhere back in
the time when the Henrys were British
kings. The heir to the British throne
might be dullard in the school room.
Very well, there was a whipping boy pro-
vided to take the royal billiards. Gaming,
which, in the interests of democracy. was
not to be spared scions Of the royal house
just because they were the exalted per.
sons they were.
To some lusty young noble fell the honor
OF being the princes whipping boy. 1t
was quite an honor. Let the prince fail
in his tests or stick out his tongue at the
master or prod his well bred neghbor with
a pin, and the whipping boy was dragged
to the front and presented with a nice
trouncing. Thus the dignity of the heir

but that the unfavorable comment and
political entanglements were much more
important at that time.
"Von Papen," according to Fay, said
other to leave 1t undone in order not to
disturb better thing"
The truth Of the matter is that JOINER
son was making his experiment on his own
hook. Berlin had not fallen in with the
idea for the very reason that Hollweg
refused to approve OF it. Jonnerson was
taking a chance of doing something orig
final; of winning recognition for ingenuity.
Jonnerson had studied French police meth
DDS, and despite the fact that he was a
Prussian in mind, soul and body--100 per
cent. Prussian, with the Prussian view
point that nobody but Prussian is eff.
cient--he had come from Paris uncon-
sciously impressed with the French system.
And the French system is utterly French,
whereas the German was wholly Prussian.
I can be no more explicit.
Fay received cold reception from the
German officials here. He SO informed
Jonnerson, and the latter told him to go
ahead with the instructions he had re-
ceived; to go ahead despite the rebuffs
of his countrymen. If the plan worked
well life would be easier for Fay.
shall briefly review the one exploit Of
Fay that ended in his going to the Federal
Prison in Atlanta. He was arrested on
October %. 1915, with one Walter Scholz
in Weehawken. He revealed to the police
the warehouse where he had stored a
quantity Of dynamite, TINT and iron
castings and mechanical devices with
which to construct bombs. These bombs
were to be attached to the rudders of mum,
ton ships and so adjusted that they would
explode within an hour of so after the
ship left New York harbor The idea was.
of course, to destroy the ship. but falling
OF that the explosive would destroy the
rudder and perhaps the propeller screws.
On the day following his arrest Fay
made a long confession and two more men
were arrested-Paul Daesche and DR.. Otto
Kienzle. Then Fay repudiated that con.
fession and made another. in which he
exonerated all but himself and Scholz.
saying that Daesche and Kienzle merely
helped him obtain the explosive.
Fay's Confessions and Retractions
Whipped Up Cloud of Dust
Later on at his trial Fay tried to make
a joke of the bombs. They were foolish
devices, he insisted. that would not explode
under any circumstances. When some Of
the explosives were brought into court Fay
changed his story again. and said that
while the bombs might have exploded he
had not intended to attach them to ships.
In brief he kicked up tremendous cloud
of dust. He made so many statements and
then made them sound foolish by retrac.
tions that tho feeling grew that the man
was fool and not representing anything
German.
And that is precisely what he had been
instructed to do--confuse lis. The trouble
was that he overdid 1t. He was sentenced
TO Atlanta for eight years. And that, it
seemed, was the end of Jonnerson's expert
menting in the fantastic.
Fay had rather tough time of 1t obey.

ERSoNS who have made pedestrian
tours through the Alps always recall
the vivid beauty of the mountain
flowers. Comparisons made by Dr. Furey
show that the superior purity and splendor
OF floral colors in the Alps are not mag
mary, or mere effect of contrast. The
reds, blues and yellows of the mountain
blossoms are much more intense than those
of the same species OF flowers grown at
ordinary levels. The leaves, also, have a
deeper and richer green, and microscopic ex-
animation shows that chlorophyl Is more
abundant in Alpine plants than in those Of
the plains.
One fact which seems quite natural, yet Is
very interesting, Is that on the mountains
plants have relatively smaller aerial organs
and larger subterranean ones. Thus a
graceful flower which in the plains is seen
nodding at the summit of an aspiring STEM
will be found high on the mountain slopes
hugging the SOIL anchored by comparatively
heavy roots and beaming up with accen-
tuated beauty from the ground.
