NOT WHAT THEY SEEM

Thieves who have repeatedly rob- bed the Kaiser Wilhelm IIs bed chamber in the old Kaiser Wilhelm place in Berlin have learned that imperial trappings are not always what they seem. The maurauders threw q gold communion set into the canal adjoining the place after they had found that the vessels were not solid.
 The incident served to recall stories of other possession of the late royal family which also were found wanting. When the German government Tn it's dire need of gold called for contributions for the prosecution of the war, Crown Princess Cecflie gave a handsome pair of gold pitchers which had been wed ling git from a foreign court She and the crown prince were much chagrined the next day at being ad- vised that the pitchers were only plated. 1t is still d mystery whether the foreign manufacturer was paid for gold or plated ware.
 Czar Nicholas once gave a set of beautiful trumpets to a Cierman regi- ment for which he was sponsor I he instruments were supposed to be silver but it turned out they were only light plated ware.
