Mr. Jebaaaa reraoaally Ineatlaea.
"That boy wrote a letter from Pon
taenia lo hi mother out In tha State
of Waahlnston. saving that ho would
try to work hi way home and that he
would CO through New Or Iran". His
mother friends telegraphed me to ree
why he had been dlw harctd. I wrote
to tha Na-rv Ieiartmrnt aeklne for the
rroon. and received a ehort. sharp let
ter Farms that he waa discharged

rould not rend any such letter to that
mother, who haa amiher son in the
erl- of the I'nltrd States In the
Army. I went do a n personally to In
vestigate. - found that this bor. In the conn
of that trip In the service, about four
months In the Navy, in cumins; through
tho Panama CanaL had developed an
extreme case of dysentery, had run
wav down In weight, had been unable
to keep himself clean, had become sick
and helpless and was set ashore at
I'ensarnla. discharged as undesirable,
left there without a 5-cent piece In
money and was Informed that he owed
tha tiorernment III for his naval uni
form. The boy reached New Orleans
br dead-beattns hta way. With the aid
ef the Bankers Association of the
Vnlted States detectives were employed
and that boy discovered and money
was handed him to make hta way home,
wbcre ba arrived sick and helpless.
Wlvlake la Admitted.
Tha Navy Department afterwards
admitted that a mistake had been made
and that the boy should have been
transferred bark to the Puget Sound
naval district before they discharged
him. My contention Is that once the
Navy enlisted that boy and took chargt
of him this tlovcrnnient waa In fact his
guardian and he was Its ward, and It
was Its duly to feed and clothe him and
rare for him In sickness and that In
trad of discharging him he should
fcave been sent to a United Slates ma
rine hospital.
"That hoy. In my opinion. has a claim
against this Government for money ex
pended by kind-hearted friends In lo
cating him and In sending him home
and a further claim for the damage to
hi health.
"Now. that Is only one case. I have
waited months to hear something
fnrther from the Navy Department,
which baa snown some interest In the
matter, and I sincerely believe that
the commander of that vessel mho art
that boy ashore deserves to be punished
and reduced in numbers."

ARTICLE XVIIL
I never found a German of the ruling
class who had resd anything written
by Treltschk. Nletxsche or Bernhardt y
Tannetiberg had more readers and
greater following, although he.
course, expresses only tha aspirations
of- the fan-Oermans. But he presents
concrete positions which anyone can
understand.
For instance, the German merchant,
looking at Tannetiberg's book and see
ing the map of South America colored
with almost universal German domina
tion, smiles and approves, for he thinks
German trade Hill swallow that rich
conlinrnt and clever German laws and
regulations will exclude the imports of
all other nations.
In some aspects Tannenbere; foresaw
what is happening today when he says:
"The Finns have been waiting a long
lime to detach themselves from the
great Kusalans, their hereditary ene
mies." j
Hut In the main. In his sketch of the
war to which he looked forward, he
failed to predict accurately the attitude
of the world. His predictions repre
sent many- of the dead hopes of the
I'an-Uc rmans, those Germans who be
lieve It is the right and duty of Ger
many to conquer alL
Tanaeabere; Prophesies M'ar.
Prophesying war between Germany
on one side and France and Russia on
the other, Tannenberg believed that
more confusion and resistance to war
than actually occurred would come In
Bohemia and Poland following the or
der for mobilisation In the Slav parts
of the Auslro-Hungartan empire. He
mistakenly wrote also that Japan
would declare war on Russia a belief
shared by the torchlight paraders of
Berlin in August, 1914.
Tanncnberg 'thought Italy would de
clare war on France. He was wrong
in his confidence that France was de
cadent, wrong in believing that Eng
land and the United States would only
talk, but would not fight, yet right In
his belief that revolution would break
out In Russia. In fact, I think that
for years after the Franco-Russian al
liance Germany was preparing a Rus
sian revolution to break out on what
ever day the Russian troops were or
dered to their colors. He says that
France will be so thoroughly defeated
that the "war ought not to leave her
more than eyes to cry with."
I am afraid that while many eyes
will cry In France, through the breadth
of Germany there will be only few
homes where eyes will rot weep over
the casualties of war, for which cruel.
craxy dreamers of world empire like
Tanncnberg are largely responsible.
Taaneaherg Dreams of I'aa-Germaalam.
For Tannenberg's dream, the dream
of the autocracy and of the Pan-
Germanlsts, is to give to Germany most
of South America, a great, part of
Africa, of Asia, the great Islands north
of Australia. Including those of the
Dutch, with Holland and Belgium part
of the German empire, as well as the
Baltic provinces and a share of the
French colonies to be divided with
England.
The share of the United States for
standing by and agreeing to the rob
bery was, according to Tanncnberg. a
protectorate over Mexico and Central
America.
Mexicans who were offered Texas
and New Mexico by Zimmermann
should read this Fan-Germanistic book
In which all of Mexico Is generously
bestowed on us.
And 1 wish that Tannenberg's book
could be read by every public man in
South America that part of South
America In which He Argentina, Chile,
l'ar.iguay. Uruguay, the southern parts
ot Brasil and Bolivia are, according to
Tanncnbergf to come under the pro
tectorate of Germany. La. in-American
publicists should Inquire from the in
habitants of Bosnia and Herregovina
how long before a "protectorate" is
transmuted Into a conquered country.
Tannenberg does speak for a great
party In Germany. The children's school
books show German "colonies" in
Southern Brazil.
As Sainte Bcuve said, there Is a
fashion In intellect. The German today
is essentially practical, cold, cynical,
but calculating. The poetry and the
Christmas trees, the sentiment and sen
timentality remain like the archi
tectural monuments of a vanished race,
mere reminders of the kindlier Ger
many that once was the Germany of
our first lmpresslons.ethe Germany that
many once loved. But that Germany
has long since disappeared, burled be
neath the spiked helmets of Prussian
ism, and another intellect is In vogue.

Older Ciersaaay
The older, kindlier Germany was the
nation tempered and softened by the
suffering of the Napoleonic wars. After
the battle of Jena, where Napoleon
rubbed the face of Prussia in defeat,
there came on Germany that period of
privation which left Its impress so
deeply on the German as to make thrift
his first characteristic. A spirit of
lofty, self-sacrificing patriotism Im
bued the whole people. Young girls cut
off their long, golden hair to be sold
for the Fatherland. Jewels were given
by all who possessed them. "Gold gab
Ich fur clsen" I gave gold for iron)
became a saying, based on the readi
ness with which the rich made sacri
fices to the cause ot count r.v. And with
this patriotism, and with this penury,
came Into every home a (nore intimate
family life, a greater earnestness, a
deeper religious sentiment, a turning
toward the idealistic side of life; but
sll was changed by the successful wars
of Prussia that gave ITussla the lead
ership, the right to rule Germany. Then,
with the end of the Franco-Prussian
war came a period of matertal pros
perity, the rush of the population to the
cities and the building of great manu
factories, of enormous shipping inter
ests. of powerful banking institutions.
of trusts and combinations which
marked the Germany of 1914.
"V fnhio;i in Inl-f ! I--.-1 c
and tha erasDing. successful Prussian
of 1914 was far removed from 'the
ruined, chastened Prussian of 1S10.
Nations, like individuals, change In
character with the stress of life. From
mm the neriod of a sorrowing. Ger
many, to 1914. is 104 years. The same
number of years subtracted from the
vear 1796, when our new republic was
flrmlv established and when George
Washington made his noble farewell
address, brings us to 1692, when 19
persons were legally hanged, charged
with witchcraft in Massachusetts and
when in that Btate Giles Cory perished
under the awful torture. Judicially ap
plied, known as the "peine forte et
dure."
It Is quite true that weak voices
against annexation have been heard.
Dernburg and Professor Hans Del
hruck (tho latter not to be confused
with the disgraced, pig-slaughtering
ex-Vice Chancel or). In their petition
against the annexation of Belgium,
showed a most reasonable spirit, and
signing this petition with them were
many of the great men and great minds
of Germany. But their movement was
a failure in Germany itself. Their cam
paign of reason could make no head
way against the "League of Six" the
six great iron and steel companies of
the west, who, with their paid lans
quenets of the press and hired accel
erators of public opinion, clamor for
annexation so that they may rivet the
chains of their industrial monopoly on
the whole continent of Europe.
Baltic Provinces Kyed Greedily.
The Conservatives and Junkers, on
the other hand, favor annexations to
the east: especially do they eye greedily
the Baltic provinces, where great es
tates are In the hands of landowners of
German blood. What a re-enforcement
to the Conservative cause would these
Junkers of the Baltic be, and, in the
Conservative view, if there are to be
annexations In the west, which would
Increase the number of industrial sub
jects and undoubtedly Social Demo
crats, there must be a balancing acces
sion of agricultural interests on the
eastern frontier. -
The only cloud in the serene, blue
sky of Junker hopes is the fact that
annexations in Poland would add to the
number of Roman Catholics and. there
fore, to the power of the Centrum or
Roman Catholic party. Hence the de
sire to make Poland an Independent
kingdom, but one controlled by the
Central Empires.
- The Poles are more at ease, having
been given more liberty, under. Aus
trian than under Prussian rule, and
hence the tendency Is to put Poland
under Austrian rule. The Prussians do
not object to this because it does not
matter whether Prussia controls Poland
directly or through Prussia s control
of Austria, now. alas! only too ap
parent. But the principal aim of the nobles
and the landed aristocracy of Germany,
followed by their host of officeholders
and dependents. Is to keep the "graft,"
to hold the offices, civil and military,
filled so long by these old Prussian
families.
The Von Lachnows, to Imagine a
typical Junker family, hold 1000 acres
of land in Brandenburg. Tbe head of
the house. Baron ' von Lachnow, was
minister to Sweden. After having held
as a young man a position of secretary
of le-gation. he left the diplomatic serv
ice to fight with his old regiment, the
Gleiwitz Hussars, through the Franco
Prussian war.
He then returned to the diplomatic
service, in which he finally attained the
rank of minister to Sweden. He now
lives on his estate of Lachnow, with a
pension as ex-minister. On great oc
casions, he appears at the royal palace,
resplendent in uniform, wearing the
Orders of the Red Eagle and Prussian
Crown with the star of the Johanns
Order. His total Income from pensions
and estate is about 110.000 a year.
The oldest son. Baron Karl Friedrich,
after serving in his father's regiment,
resigned and entered the diplomatic
service, and is now second secretary of
the legation in Buenos Aires. He mar
ried there the daughter of a rich cattle
owner. The second son, Baron Johann,
is now police president of the city of
Schelsau, after having been District
Attorney in an industrial district where
he distinguished himself by his prose
cution of the Social Democrats. He
married the daughter of the rich manu
facturing proprietor Schultz, who sells
wholesale little statuettes on the Kit
terstrasse In Berlin.
Baron August is in the army, detailed
to the General Staff and with a great
future before him.' Baron Max is now
out of a Job. While on his vacation the
British captured the colony in which
he was secretary to the Governor, and
so at the outbreak of the war he as
sumed his old uniform of First Lieu
tenant in the Gleiwitz Hussars and was
given command of the prison camp at
$chluttenberg, where he has won dis
tinction for his severity with British
prisoners.
Baron Ernest is in the navy. This is
considered rather a comedown by the
family, as the navy, unlike the army,
is not aristocratic. He has great hopes
of marrying the only daughter of Von
Blitz, who owns a splendid estate in
Silesia. One of the daughters, Hilda, is
married to Count Wenharp, owner of a
beautiful estate in Pomerania, and the
other to Hochlst, who is Judge of the
law court in Holstein and who owns
the Rittergout (or manor of Klein
Spassberg, near Kiel).
The estate of Lachnow is perfectly
flat ground. The road to Brandenburg
runs through the estate and village,
the houses of- which front directly on
the road. This road. in the village is
paved with rough cobblestones. The
house of the Von Lachnows almost
touches the road, from which it is sep
arated by an old stone wall.
One side is on a square, cobblestoned
courtyard formed by the great barns,
stables and sheds which surround the
other three sides of the square. The
house and all the barns are built of
rough stone. The house Is built on the
plan of a piece of castile soap, walls
and roof and nothing more. Inside
there is a dining-room, two parlors and
an office-den for the master; upstairs
bedrooms, opening on a long hall; no
bathrooms, no conveniences: even th
water is brought in by the maids from
the well in the center of the court. The
furniture is old and plain.
The family does not keep an automo
bile, but two horses draw a dogcart to
the station and take the family on vis
its to the neighboring aristocracy. The
driver is the sexton of the village
church on these occasions. On the two
sides of the house away from the main
road and the square of barns there is
a park of about 10 acres. Here are
few evergreens and gravel paths and
a pond, where some enormous carp ex
cite the wonder of the village children
Baroness Lachnow Is renowned for
her devotion to the four K's. No one
has a better stock of household linen
all made by her, her daughters and her
maids, in the whole Mark. She super
intends every household detail and
holds the keys to closets and wine
Cellar.
Of course the family does not asso
