Wilhelm's "Wanderings.

Wilhelm Hohenzollern did not
make a hit in Germany as an author
with his book published a year and
half ago. He expected to justify
his course in the war, and especially
his flight to Holland, before the Ger.
man people. But the book was rather
coldly received over there. 1t Ger.
tainly did not evoke any enthusiasm
for the fugitive, and report is that
he has been sad in his disillusionment
respecting his popularity.
Having thus stubbed his toe, as II
were, on the stone of authorship, the
former kaiser is not disposed to tread
in that same path again. But he is
tiptoeing along a parallel path. He
has just been quoted by Lieut.. Col.
Niemann in a book entitled Wan.
derings with Kaiser Wilhelm" that
is attracting attention now in Ber.
lin. Lieut.. Col. Nienann, it would
appear, has wandered" about con.
siderably with the kaiser" serving
as sort Of Boswell to his johnson.
1t is related that in the course
Of these wandering talks Wilhelm ex.
pressed the belief that Germany
would have won the war in 1918 if
the United States had not Joined the
allies and that President Wilson was
resolved to defeat the central pow.
ers and refrain from peace negotia.
tions until the American army had
won military honors in Europe. He
also accused the United States OF
having entered the war to annihilate
German economic competition, since
Germany was strong enough not to
need an economic alliance with Amer.
lea, as did the other European ma.
tions.
. 1t Is, Of course, idle to follow
Wilhelm's ''wanderings" They are Of
no Importance whatever. Nobody
pays the slightest heed to them. His
Judgment of what happened in 1918
cannot be accepted as unprejudiced.
But it is something, at least, to know
that he credits the American weight
of arms as turning the scale against
Germany, however wrong he may be
regarding the reasons for America s
entrance into the war.

An Experimenting Husband.

A strange crime has just been dis
closed by accusation Of q man at
White Plains, ". T, for having ad-
ministered pneumonia and diphtheria
germs to his wife for the purpose
Of poisoning her. Arsenic also is
mentioned as one OF the means
adopted for this purpose. Tho ac-
cused has pleaded guilty, except as
to intent to KILL" but quickly fol-
lowed up this plea with a disavowal
of all connection with the crime.
Physicians report that their examina-
tion shows traces Of poison and also
germs Of the two diseases in the
blood Of the wife, who has been
gravely iii. but is still living. Coun.
sci for the husband declare that he
Is not in any way guilty Of intent to
take his wife's life, but that he is
interested in chemical researches and,
being of a somewhat neurotic tenn
permanent, has been carried away by
his enthusiasm TO the point of ex-
perimenting on his wife. Fortunately,
it would appear, these experiments
have not reached the point of caus.
ing death.

Greek Art for America.

Greece, which has just become re-
public, and is therefore the youngest
member Of the family OF democratic
states, proposes to lend the American
people one of it's most cherished works
OF art Of antiquity, 20 be shown to
them as mark Of esteem for the old
est Of existing republics. This statue
is the masterpiece Of Praxiteles,
"Hermes Carrying the Infant Di-
onysus." The plan is TO send it over
here on an American battleship, and
then to take it about the country in a
specially constructed car to be shown
to the greatest possible number of
people. 1t may be accompanied by
distinguished Greek scholar, giving
lectures on Greek art. The only condi-
ton imposed by the Greek government
is that there shall be no commercial
aspect to the exhibition, but that 1t
shall be wholly free. and in no manner
or degree utilized TO promote contribu-
tions to any cause, however worthy.
This is a most admirable plan, and
should be carried out in full accord
ance with the spirit Of it's proposal.
Greece. though now the youngest Of
the republics, was one OF the oldest Of
the democracies. 1t is but the closing
Of a cycle now for Greece to return to
popular government. When Praxiteles
carved his great work the people ruled
at Athens. Art f1owered in the highest
form there when the popular will was
most effectively expressed.
Throughout this country an interest
in art has been evolving steadily for
years. At present 1t has reached
point never before attained. In all
parts the people are studying the his.
tory Of art, are cultivating their own
talents. The display Of the masterpiece
Of Praxiteles would greatly stimulate
this development.

The Smith Campaign.

This evening, after the last rites
lave been pronounced over Charles f.
Murphy. the departed Tammany chief
tain, those who are to carry on with
the immediate political enterprise to
which he had been devoting himself,
The nomination of his protege, Gov. AL
fred L. Smith, as the Democratic can
didate for the presidency, will confer
upon their policy.
By general consent it appears that
National Committeeman Norman T..
Mack of Buffalo will take charge Of
tae Smith boom. He has. been close to
Mr. Murphy in recent months, and
was aware of all his plans and policies.
Mr. Mack is quoted in an interview as
saying that while six months ago he
cculd not visualize the Smith nonIina-
lion as ulaternlzing, he thinks there
mas been reaction from the opposition
70 Gov. Smith, and now there is q pos
sibility of nominating him.
But there are others to be consulted
about the fate Of the Smith campaign.
There is in New York today one
George E. Brennan OF Chicago, mem
Der of the late political triumvirate of
Murphy, Brennan and Taggart, broken
now by the death of the head of the
trm. It is necessary to ascertain
whether Mr.. Brennan and Mr.. Taggart
viii stay in the game to beat McAdoo,
which. was the first essential to paw
~
Taggart and Mr.. Brennan never saw
Mr.. Smith as the nominee. They were
frying their own fish in the combina-
rion.,
o~The opinion Of many Democratic
Politicians is said TO be that the death
of Mr.. Murphy weakens. the Smith
boom. Norman e. Mack holds the op-
posite opinion. The approaching con.
Lerences will determine the facts.

that IL cannot Well afford, indeed,

great Improvement. The Maryland
highway commission is planning to
reconstruct the road 30 that it will
pass below the tracks of the steam
railroad at Silver Spring. This cross
ing and that ~ Byattsville are the
extremely dangerous grade crossings
remaining in the Washington neigh.
borhood. 1t is possible that more We
hicle traffic passes them than passed
dozen OF the old South Washington
and East Washington crossings in
the days when agitation ran high
against the junction Of streets and

The substitution OF bus for tram
way transport between the District
line end Forest Glen will be thor
oughly considered by the Maryland
authorities, the people living in the
Silver Spring and Forest Glen neigh
borhoods' and the railway officers.
This line shares the hard fortune of
other suburban lines. It did its part
toward helping to build up an exten-
sive section north OF Washington, and
perhaps a thousand families have
pretty homes in that section where
not ten lived when the Forest Glen
line was built. At rough estimate,
about $50 OF the thousand travel in
automobiles and the patient old rail-
road ianguishes and rusts AS the
Bladensburg car line found itself
without money to rebuild its tracks
to conform to the improved Bladens-
burg highway, SO the Forest Glen
line seems to find itself too poor to
realign its tracks in agreement with
the admirable plan for eliminating the
Silver Spring grade crossing.
