Fence Protects
Liberty Tree From,
Souvenir Hunters

ANNAPOLIS. Nd, December 19.-
In line with the national program of
the d. A. r. to protect objects of
historic interest, the ancient tulip
poplar which stands on the campus
of st. Johns College. this city, and
is registered in the hall OF fame of
the American Historical Association
as the Liberty Tree, has been pro-
tected from souvenir hunters by the
erection of an iron fence given by
the Peggy Stewart Tea Party Chap
ter of the d. A. r. The fence was
dedicated yesterday with appropri-
ate ceremonies held on the cam
pus of the college, and among the
prominent participants were Capt. E.
Lombard, representing the French
Ambassador, NJ. Jusserand; Mrs. Rob-
ert, regent of the Peggy Stewart Tea
Party Chapter of the d. A. r., and
DR.. Carey, president of the college.
The French Ambassador has per-
sonally been present on many occa-
sions at ceremonies at the college,
his chief interest being in the grave
yard on the campus, not far from
the Liberty Tree, where lie the bodies
of French sailors and soldiers who
fought for the Colonies in the Revolu-
ton. This graveyard is marked by a
monument which Ambassador Jusse-
rand points to as the first monument
erected in the history of the world
to an unknown soldier.

BERLIN, November 15.-Germany
has witnessed one of the rare execu-
tions in its modern history. A few
days ago a 24-year-old woodcarver
was executed by guillotine in the
ourtyard of the state prison at Frei-
burg. His crime had been two-fold
murder, gruesome in its details.
On a bleak Winters night last No
vember he had killed an old peasant
couple on their farm on a mountain
peak in the Black Forest. His motive
was the old couples hard-earned saw
ings and farm.
AS wood carver. this young man,
whose name was Hunderpfund, en-
joyed quite a local prestige. For he
was considered something of an ar
tist by the inhabitants of the COM

which did not last longer than IL
o'clock. The remainder of the night
he passed in a state of rest1essness.
His attitude toward the prison chap
lain was feverishly changeable. At
times he would listen to the minister
with great humility then again he
would violently refuse to hear any
words of consolation.
The execution in the morning was
attended by the judges who had pass
ed the sentence, twelve official wit
nesses and several physicians.
Shortly after $3.50 the prisoner was
conducted to the prison yard accom-
panied by the chaplain. The dawn
of the breaking day, aided by the rays
of a single electric lamp shed uncer-
tain light over the scene. Attired in
dark coat, buttoned up to the neck,
the condemned man approached hesi-
tatingly, but apparently composed.
Then he stopped in front of the
judges.

read the sentence, to which the short,
broad -shouldered man listened with
a ghastly pale face, his eyes staring
with a fascinated look at the judges.
But when the Judge cast the pieces
of a broken stick at his feet as the
symbol of a forfeited life, with the
words: "Executioner, do your duty"
the condemned man suddenly COL
lapsed and had to be carried to the
scaffold.

GERMANY TO HAVE
GOLD COINS AGAIN
New Mark Gives Country
Stable Currency Quoted
on All BourSeS.

Correspondence of The Star and New York
BERLIN, November S-For the
first time since the war Germany has
once more stable international cur
rency quoted on all the world
hourses.
The new-old mark is back-the
reichsmark issued under the Dawes
plan. 1t bears the same name, de-
nominations and in some instances
the same general design as the old
paper mark which dwindled into the
billions.
Both the rentenmark and the old
paper mark are to be annulled. The
rentenmark was an international cur
rency. Legally. it was not permitted
out of the country, and it was not
dealt with in foreign capitals. In
Paris, particularly, the rentenmark
was refused as so much spurious
paper.
At present about 100000 renten
and paper marks are in circulat ton,
theoretically and practically valued
at 100000 gold dollars. During the
past month, according to figures of
the Reichsbank, there has been an
increase in the circulate of all
forms of currency-private bank
notes, renten notes. metal coin and
the few remaining railroad emergency
paper bills.
silver Coins Issued.
With the coming of the reichsmark
Germany once more will have gold
coins, which have not been in gen
eral use for the past 10 years The
new silver money, issued simul-
taneously with the rentenmark, re-
mains, with ., 3 and l mark pieces.
The wreichsmark is issued in
denominations Of 10, 90 so, 100 and
1000 mark notes. For the embeIlish-
ment of these notes reproductions of
paintings by Hans Holbein, the
younger, have been chosen, while as
type the Duerer script is used. The
size of the smallest notes, those of
Q marks, is IS by $50 millimeters.
The dimensions increase proportion
ately with the values Of the notes to
the extent of miliimeters in breadth
and 10 miliimeters in length for
every new denomination, the largest
being the 1000 mark notes OF 50 by 100
millimeterS.
Notes Deeply Colored.
The notes of the three lesser de-
nominations are deeply colored, the
10-mark notes blue, the 20-mark
notes yellowish and the 5O-mark notes
lilac, all having a dark border. The
100 and LOCO mark notes are prin ed
on a white back ground and colored
only on the side bearing the numeral
and the stamp. The l0a-mark notes
ave green and the 1.000-mark notes
brown.
The continual coming of silver cur
rency and rentenpfennige tended to
increase the money circulation by
$4,000 900 marks.
The circulation Of the rentenmarl
also increased to the amount of 20,
100000 marks without any appre-
Ciable expenditure on the part of the
Renten Bank, which figure represents
the highest increase thus far attain
ed. But the principal increase was
on the part OF the Reichsbauk notes,
amounting to 128,60O,0O0 marks.
Current returns show a strong re-
vival of the check and draft circula-
ton. But the increase in discount
and postal check circulation, as in
the preceding months, does not ap-
proach the increase in currency cir
cuIation.
Whereas in August the heavy in

crease in the circulation of money
was attributable to a corresponding
diminution of the public deposits at
the Reichsbank. the September
Reichsbank deposits show an increase
of more than 110,000,0O0 marks. 1t
is especially remarkable that by the
end Of September private deposits had
reached a figure never yet attained
a the end of the month.

OUR UNIVERSITY GRADUATES

Last Wednesday evening at the City
Exercises of the Denver University
were held, and among the nearly 300
graduates who received their various
literary and scientific degrees were
three of our young men-Charles Lib
by Howard, brother of Howard X How
ard, grocers, who received the degree
Bachelor of Arts; Paul James Oliver,
who graduated as Doctor of Dental
Surgery, and Theodore Holley Won
Dickersohn, Bachelor of Science, and II
son of one of Denver's old and respect
ed families. Hard work and increasing
energy, laboring assiduously during the
years of their studies, brought them to
the goal of success, and what with the
commencement address by Bishop Irv-
ing Johnson of the Episcopal diocese
on the "Sine qua non" of Il decent civ
ilization in which he emphasized the
qualities that must be possessed by
those going out in the world to con-
tribute their part, also the charge Civ
en- them by Chancellor Heber Reece
Harper after he had conferred the de-
grees and gave them their diploma of
merit, our graduates will with stronger
determination resolve to carry out such
valuable instructions and be beacon
lights in the educational world.
We offer our best congratulations
and wish our distinguished fellow-cit-
izens God speed and Good Luck in
the ONWARD MARCH OF LIFE.

MRS. MARY BURDlNE, RESPECTED
~ PIONEER RESIDENT, LAID
TO REST
Returning to the sod,
She laid life down,
Relieving in her God.

Mrs. Mary BurDine, late pioneer
resident of Denver, passed into the
Great Beyond Friday, May 80, after an
illness extending over a period OF sew
eral months, and was laid to rest in
the family plot at Fairmount cemetery
Sunday, June 1. She was the wife OF
| Charles BurDine, recently retired clerk
of the Denver postoffice, who had an
enviable record of over forty years
| continuous service and who was spe-
cially complimented by Postmaster
| General New in an autograph letter for
his service to the government, and his
steady rise in the department.
Mrs. BurDine was Il native of Cleve-
land, Ohio, who having felt the call of
the West, desired to join her husband
in helping towards its development,
and played her part in her quiet, unas-
suming, unostentatious way during her
nearly forty-five years of welded life.
The deceased won the respect of those
who knew her and was held in much
esteem by those with whom she came
in contact. 1t can therefore be said of
her that as a pioneer, she contributed
her share to the progress of western
life and to the growth of Denver.
The funeral service was held last
Sunday morning at 10 o'clock from the
l. N. Rogers Chapel, 1544 Lincoln
street, where, in the presence of a
large assembly of both races, Il very
impressive ceremony was performed.
Revs. Anglebarger and Henderson of
the Seventh Day Adventist and Baptist
Church respectively, made brief ad-
dresses emphasizing the Resurrection
of the Dead which brought consolation
to the ,grief-laden husband and other
relatives, and Mrs. Henry Pinn sang
favorite songs of the deceased, accom-
panied by Hewetson-Watsono on the lat
est improved Estey organ installed in
the Rogers Chapel. The flowers were
rare and beautiful typifying the love
and respect in which she was held by
friends and relatives. Besides her de-
voted husband, she is survived by
three sisters to whom the COLORADO
STATESMAN extends its sincere sym
pathy, knowing they will find consola-
tion in the fact that she remained on
the scene of action for many years,
and performed her part well.
May she rest in peace.

the sidewalks of our principal streets

their neat dress and distinctive SOL

of any of the units in the great pa

corted to the resident of Sergt. Barnes,

held at Shorter's Church last Wednes-

held there. The various representa-
tions of the latest fashions consisting
of evening gowns, suits riding habits,
hiking suits, summer and afternoon
dresses, seemed to have met the taste
of the critical audience as they eX-
pressed their approval by continuous
applause. Included in the program
were vocal and instrumental musical
selections. The management is to be
commended for such a successful eX-
hibition, as it could be clearly dis
cerned that the most fastidious was
charmed.
