Z Berlin, April 14.-The matrimonial
bliss of ex-Kaiser Wilhelm and
Princess Hermine lasted exactly one
month. Three months of domestic
guerilla warfare followed, then three
weeks of separation under the same
roof, and now 500 miles are between
William III and his bride OF hve
months ago. THANK God l am rid
of her!" the ex-kaiser cried out IN
front of the servants at the house
of Doom when a month ago Her
mine locked herself up in her apart
ment which she never left until she
Sacked her trunks and went to her
Silesian castle ten days ago.
These facts became known today
when Baron Hans Henning Won
Stechow, an intimate friend Of the
former crown princess, tore asunder
the veil of lies and legends with which
the former monarch's exile has been
surrounded ever since the wedding last
November.
aThe roots of the rupture at Doom
NAV be found in the regeneration
treatment to which the ex-kaiser sub
jected himself during the weeks pre-,
ceding the wedding" the baron said
in an interview. According to what
the ex-crown prince and the physl-
clan of the former kaiser say, a GER
tain kind of medicine which he took
in the form of pills completely under
mined his health. Either William
partook too freely of these pills or
their effect was just the opposite OF
that desired. At any rate scarcely
one month had passed after the ex-
kaiser's second marriage when he be-
came irritable, nervous, jumpy and
shaky. After a while it got so bad
that the whole household was in fear
and trembling all the time. Within
few weeks William had changed
from a pink checked, mild hammered,
grey haired sexagenarian into a bag
gard. hot tempered octogenarian.
Becomes Extremely Irritable.
3Now deep burrows line the ex-
kaiser's face; his eyes have become
hollow and restless and his hair has
turned snow white. Apparently he
has lost all self-control. He goes up
in the air for no reason whatever. 1t
has happened time and again for in
stance that in the course of meal
he would pick IN piece of bread
and throw it in the face of servant
without any excuse for it.

S HIGHWAY MEASURES
TO BE SUBMITTED At
LEGISLATURE SESSION
Passage of Bills Will Garry
Ont Departments
Program.

Austin, Tex, April 14.-Five pro-
posed measures on the legislative pro-
gram of the state highway depart
ment that failed of enactment dur
ing the recent regular session of the
3Sth Legislature, are to be submitted
and introduced at the coming special
session, provided the governor grants
the request of the department.
The bills are:
Emergency road maintenance bill,
giving the highway department au-
thority TO maintain all roads on
which state and federal aid has been
used and which are not being main
tanned properly ythe county. Also
TO permit the state to use 80 per
cent of state aid on projects so as
to match the federal aid in counties
where county funds are not avail
able. This would permit the link
ing up of main state highways where
the counties have been unable or have
refused to provide funds for this pur-
pose for being used in state and fed
eral aid.
Regulating common carrier motor
vehicles, placing the regulation of
such vehicles under the railroad COM
mission, providing that all vehicles
using the highways as common car
riers should apply and be granted n
certificate of public necessity and
convenience before being permitted to
operate or use the highways in this
capacity. Providing that the ope,a-
tors of such vehicles should taka out
indemnity bond for the protection Of
passengers and property.
Regulating the Gr, of headlights on
Toto" vehicles using tho public higl =
NAYS, providing ,;lr lighting devices

commission before being sold for use
in this state.
Providing for the elimination Of
railroad crossings through the rail-
road commission, such commission be-
ing given authority TO declare any
railroad grade crossing q menace to
human life and order the elimination
thereof. The state, county and rail-
road commission to bear the expense
of such elimination.
Limiting the weight OF wagons op-
Grated on public highways. prescrib-
ing the weight of tires. etc.
With the passage of these bills the

cram will have been carried out.

disregard for her self-respect and his
growing dislike of her three children
that finally caused Hermine to keep
away from him. When she first
brought her children to Doom their
stepfather took a kindly interest in
them, or at least pretended TO do so.
After his nervous breakdown he began
to show an intense dislike for them
and this now appears to have turned
into outright hatred. He could not
bear to have them within sight and
they became so frightened of him
that naturally they kept away. Dur
ing the last weeks of their stay at
Doom they used to play in the yard
between the Hunting lodge at the
entrance to the castle and the castle
itself, never daring to 60 near the big
garden which lies back of the castle.
"Many scenes resulted from the ex-
kaiser's unreasonable behavior, often
in front of the servants, much to Her
mines disgust. Early in March this
unhappy situation came to a head.
Both the ex-kaiser's and Hermine's
health had suffered so greatly under
the continual strain that the doctors
insisted that they must separate. For
three weeks Hermine stayed in her
rooms. She sent the following note
to the ex-kaiser in accordance with
the traditional ceremonial which is
still observed at Doom:
Sends Her Formal Regrets"
Her imperial majesty, the kaiser
in, on account of poor health and act
ing on medical advice, will be pre-
vented for a considerable time from
seeing her illustrious husband ,"
Hermine left Doom about two
weeks ago, supposedly on an eight
weeks trip to her estate in Silesia
as agreed on in her marriage contract
with the ex-kaiser. Just what will
happen next, it is hard to say. Di-
vorce proceedings are considered to
be out of the question. Hermine,
who has put up brave front right
along, may even return to Doom
after her eight weeks are up just to
keep up appearances and avoid scan
dial. But so far as a harmonious
married life is concerned, that is all
over.
Pastor Vogel of Potsdam, who per-
formed the wedding ceremony at
Doom last November and who re-
Gently returned from a trip to Hol-
land. confirms this story:
"The ex-kaiser," he says, "has suf-
fered a nervous breakdown and has
aged perceptibly. At present he is
working on a book about the Bible"

her 50-hour, nonstop record.
And I'm wilted. So are the other

But Miss Alma Cummings, the
champ, is ready to start all over
again, taking on all corners who wish
to dispute her title.

She had been dancing for A hours

No one else had ever danced continu-

Nothing much" Miss Cummings
replied. Just the ordinary things
that flash through a persons mind

about anything in particular.

German People Are firing of
'tPassiue Resistance" Urging

material victories claimed by both
sides amount to much.
IrksOme TO the Workers.
1t is particularly among the work.
ing classes that. the negative result
of Chancellor Cuno's. policy of pas
sive resistance is realized and the eter-
nal repetition of the phrase "Ruhrge-
bet" has Earring effect on these
people. The following report from the
"Ruhrgebiet" shows that passive re-
sstance is no longer the success it is
claimed to be in Berlin:
"There are waverers in the ranks
of the passive resisters. Hundreds
have asked the French for work. Hun
dreds are working in gangs under
armed protection.
"These symptoms are sporadic and
not at all apparent on the surface, but
they are unmistakable. They are the
beginning of the end. The will to re-
sist is still powerful, but the means
are giving out. The effort of the
Ruhr population has reached its maxi
mum. 1t cannot be increased. 1t can
not even maintain its present strength.
1t must grow weaker slowly, no doubt
but inevitably"
There are gaps, too, in the ranks
of the passive resisters in Berlin.
These gaps are widening day by day
because the strategy of Chancellor
Cuno and the others in command is
not broad enough TO consider all the
details which might make united
front. Political strife and high prices
are the most formidable enemies with
which those at the home front have
to contend and the eternal propagan-
da about the "Ruhrgebiet," the gov
ernment's weapon against these arch
enemies, has proved too frail even TO
scratch them.
