If you will arrange matters so I can come to Chicago without being molested enroute, I am forced to ask you to give me 36 hours to arrange my security and other things which will be necessary before a warrant or subpoena is served by the department of justice after I reach Chicago. "If you will do this, notify embassy here and telegraph me." Mr. Clyne indicated he was disposed to grant the negro's request and per- " iit him to return and serve his sentence.

Berlin Press Opposes Keeping of Estate of William Hohenzollarn (By Associated Press) BERLIN, Feb. 4 Efforts to keep intact the fortune of former Emperor William are condemned in a long editorial printed by the Vorwaerts, this afternoon. The newspaper says this movement is In behalf of 'a man who ruined Germany." "The bill now before the Prussian diet represents a master piece of Prussian efficiency," says the editorial,

"for the financial status of Count Ilohenzolern is placed on the basis of his right to property while nothing is said as to his guilt for the political situation. It is perhaps well to remember that the national constitution gives the government the right to seize private fortunes." Details of the measure are given by the newspaper which says paragraph four of the bill declares the royal house will give "in the interest of the general welfare" certain possessions such as real estate, works of art and valuable articles, but provides the former Emperor must be paid 100,000,000 marks in compensation. "This sum has an accentricity" the editorial continues, "in that it not only will be paid to the erstwhile Kaiser's fortunes, but will be devoted to paying taxes on that fortune. This translated into simple German means the Hohenzolerns are freed from emergency loans and that this expense will be taken over by Prussia."

TYPEWRITER USED

MORE AND MORE BY WOMEN IN HOMES

Is friendship becoming a business? Is it being commercialized or are women merely making their friendly correspondence efficient? The woman interrogated was a home maker; the mother of four children. She has no active connection in her husband's business and has no business activities of her own, and yet, standing in a corner of her living-room was a very business-like typewriter. "Do you use it?" was asked. "Oh, constantly. All my letters to

firms from- whom I buy clothes.

books, etc., and practically all my

personal letters. Most of my friends have forgotten what my handwriting

is," smiled she. "And do your friends think typewritten letters stilted from formal? Did you have a hard time convincing them that you were just as friendly as usual? "The answer as that the first time she used the machine she explained to each friend that hence forth they were to get longer letters more legibly written. Many Use Machine "A large number, of my friends use the typewriter, too, although I could hardly say that the practice was general yet. 1 find, however, that I can get a lot more of my friends and that I get more business-like treatment from business firms when I use a typewriter, some of my friends do not care to learn and I suppose many of them never shall take the time to practice, but then 1 could point out a large variety of men, who can't use a machine themselves, though they may have been dictating letters for years. A typewriter merchant said often he sold typewriters to, families who have a son or daughter in school. "Some teachers prefer ruining their eyes over badly written themes, and make it unlawful to hand in typewriter lesson, but other teachers are right up to the minute on saving their eyes while there's yet a chance, and encourage the use of a machine providing the work is neatly done," explained a high school pupil.

Trousers, Bedecked With Jewels, Shown for Next Season; Lacing Tabooed (By Associated Press) PARIS, Feb. 4. Daring Oriental suits of lustrous gold and silver tissues ending in trouser legs which are held close to the shoe tops by straps, sometimes embroidered in precious stones, passing under the wearer's instep, are featured in displays of summer models in Parisian modesties' parlors. Some models coyly veil the trousers with filmy materials. Recent rumors that tight lacing was to be restored to favor have proved to be erroneous. In fact, little if any corseting will be needed next summer except by stout women. The length of street dresses geing shown is about the same as that most in vogue last fall, but the hem is narrower. Bright textures will appear in many of the most popular creations and patterned materials will be featured by some of the most famous houses. One of the most popular models will show a flounce effect and a tight underskirt of jade green. A smart little jacket with gorgeously embroidered lining has been given the stamp of approval in some of the more exclusive shops.
