Ruler Enjoys Life
 At Reich's Expense
Ex-Czar Ferdinand of Bulgaria Is Paid From German
 Treasury

had on depo sit in the Bank of Eng land in London a very large sum of money. When he got ready final ly to throw Bulbaria into the war against the allies. prudence would have dictated that he withdraw his money.
 But to do So would have given the allies an inkling of what he contemplated. In order to preserve the element of surprise about Bull garia's entry into the war, it was therefore, necessary for Ferdy to leave his money in London. And to guarantee him against loss of this sum, 1t is claimed the German im- perial government agreed to in- demnify him.
 How Wars are Engineered
 When and if the reichstag tackles the problem and probes into the whole Bulgarian mess, American readers of the cable news are likely still further to have their eyes opened as to how this war business Is conducted by Europe. Just before the war broke out, Bulgaria was dickering with big German banks for very large loan, much of the money being desired for the build ing of railways.
 Almost on the very eve of the war the contract was signed. Then came the war and for the time be- ing, all financial bets were off. The allies knew all about 1t and there ensued battle royal in Sofia.
 Each side wanted Bulgaria as an ally. If they could not get this, then they wanted her neutrality benevolent if possible. French banks vied with German banks in offers of loans to Bulgaria-offers with war strings tied to them. Fhe Russians, who knew the Bulgarians as we'll as anybody, told the allies they were wasting their time. The way to get Bulgaria was to bribe some of the big political leaders and parliamentary heavy guns.
 But Ferdinand beat them to it. Germany apparently guaranteed Ferdinand against any monetary loss if he took his country into the war on the side of the central pow CTS. At any rate, whatever hap pened, in October, 1915. Bulgaria finally entered the war on the side of Germany. Autria and Turkey.
 And the German people have been paying Ferdinand ever since.

TATTOO MARKS
 MAY PROVE GIRL
 OF ROYAL BLOOD
French Experts Study Marking on Normandy
 Shepherdess

Paris.--European experts in her aldry are studying a minute design reconstructed from bits of the tat tooed skin of Marthe. a Normandy shepherd-woman and beggar. 40 years old, who may prove to be the illegitimate daughter of a duke and a princess belonging to illus trious royal families in Europe.
 All that is known of Marthe, off, ficialy, is that she vas sent to the orphanage of the Assistance Publique in Paris in 1890, when she was four. Like most of these waifs, Marthe was put in the hands of farmers and became a shepherd girl in Normandy, suo- jected to constant harsh treat ment.
 Marthe lived as best she could, through 36 years of her life. mostly by begging for her food. Then, in 1926. doctor treating her discovered 16 scars on her body. He recognized them as tat too marks W hich had been burned more than 90 years before.
 On the doctors advice the scars were examined by experts who concluded that. as baby. she had been tattooed by clever artist with ls Identical coats of arms and that before she was three or four years old the marks had been clumsily removed by painful op. erations.
 The traces which remain, ex- amined by magnifying glass. show an escutcheon of an alliance between two celebrated families It is a question whether this was done by her parents and then cut out when they decided to return to their families. who may hay" had no knowledge of their love tryst in Paris. and put the girl In the orphanage.
 The experts in heraldry have reported no trouble in identifying parts of two royal coats-of-arms and hope to conclude their work shortly, so that Marine can take some legal action to claim her share of a heritage.
 The official records in the French government show that the birth certificate of the shepherd beggar had been tempered with in the great volume of the 1st Ar. ron dissen1 ent. Certain marginal arnotations had been scratched out and there Is no clue from that recrod as to who her parents may have been.
