These and other details are related In : a letter and newspaper clippings re ceived by Frank E. Lewis, of this city. ' a brother-in-law of ex-Mayor Albee. . from Dr. Willlaffi Law. a college friend - of Mr. Lewis, who reached New Tork New Tear's day from Berlin, where he had practiced dentistry for IS years. ile was too 111 to come over with the . Gerard party, but brought his wife and daughter to Flint, Mich, their old home, as soon as be wss physically able. Dr. i - Law is a graduate of the University of Michigan. While in Berlin he had - clientele among; the nobility and was ' la a position to learn much of interest. Sapatles) Are fianiii. One of the most Interesting features . of his Information is the fact that. Just prior to the declaration of war on Ger many by the I'nlted States. It wss com mon talk In Berlin in the circle in which Dr. Law moved that America would be the next for attack when the allies were whipped. The Germans, he ays. felt that they bad the war about won at that time. All the American friends of the Laws. who came over with the Gerard party, sold them their food, so that they did not actually go hungry, but were obliged to live meagerly. They had to report to the police every day. and when they left could not bring a piece . of paper or any written material, and everything was Inspected. Dr. Law reports that all the food bought In Germany ta by card system. end only a limited amount Is allowed weakly. Only an eighth of a pound of . butter a week Is allowed, half a pound of meat, a pound of flour (mixed gra ham), two pounds of bread and a frw pounds of vegetables to each person. Theae things ware not very expensive. as mere was a way or buying from soldiers, who got the food that should have gone ta sick soldiers. w ana's Face Resit Dr. Law says that the faces of the - " German women haunt one. There Is no roar and no soap at all. The only aolu tioo to the war he sees la for this eoim try to fight the Germans on their own oIL for, although - the people are nearly starved to death, they will not give la aa long as they feci aafa nd think they are winning. The bread la terrible stuff, made of coarse graham flour, with a mixture of straw and yellow turnips. There la no wool la the country and very little rot ten. A meter of longcloth costs $;.; - and may be purchased only upon writ ten permit by the police, and then only - once a year. Only two chemises a year are allowed the women, and those are - made of a fabric that dissolves when . boiled: these cost SI each. Plx hand kerchiefs at a time is the limit, and : restaurants are forbidden the use of - table linen. The Germans feel that Americans are not standing with the President and that nothing very serious can happen from our being In the war. The people are weary of the war. but - have no Idea of giving up. aa they be . Have victory will be theirs and refer - frequently lo the map, which, of course, -; shows considerable conquered territory. Defeat Sever Admitted. I The German people never admit de '. feat, but If news of a setback seeps through to them It Is always put in the form of a "strategical retreat. The military powers say so and It Is so to the people. When the people cry for - peace, the war lords tell them they have offered peace, but the allies refuse It, sad the people, with great patience, . continue on. "Germany today Is honeycombed with i. graft, declared Dr. Law. "It Is the moat gigantic graft I have ever seen. - I never thought In peace times that It would be possible. There never was graft la America that could compare with It- There la a new word In Ger many since the war began.

Is very bad: there are no automobiles, except ing for the military. -The winning of the war for the allies," concludes Dr. Law. "depends upon how many airplanes America can furnish. There never will be sn up rising of the German people until the army Is driven back to the Rhine: then I believe It will come suddenly. after the German towns have been bom barded and torn down. The military party will die fighting, whether killed by the allies or by their own people in sn uprising; after Germany has been crushed." Dr. Law and family left Berlin Octo ber -3 -for Copenhagen, where he waited several weeks for a boat, and later went to Chrlstlanla. He came from there to New Tork without any delay.

The mound of a newly made grave has been reared in the little cemetery of Underwood. Wasll. Beneath the rldgo of heapedT-np and rounded-off clay and loam rests the body of Amos Underwood, pioneer Indian-fighter who claimed tho Mid- Columbia for his home for 65 years. And, while the aged man had more than one scalp to his credit, no man of the early days, perhaps, was ever held in higher regard by the Indians than Amos Underwood. At the age of 83 the pioneer died at the home of his only surviving child. Mrs. Mary V. Olsen, a,t th little town on the North Bank rail road In Skamania County that bears his name, on Friday, December 14. His funeral was held the following Tuesday. While he left no son to per petuate his name, the old man left th town and community to bear it through time. Wife Indian Girl. In the life and deeds of Amos Un derwood one may read of romance, tragedy and hardship. His wife was an Indian maiden, the daughter o Chenowlth, chief of the Cascade In dlans. Following the so-called Cascade massacre in 1856, Chenowlth and his personal retinue of- warriors were tried by a court-martial and sentenced to be hanged. The old warrior, with the noose around his neck. In his fare well address, motioned to his side one of the stalwart young guards. The guard was Amos Underwood. I have observed this sturdy pale face for years," were the words, "ac cording to interpreters, of the proud old chief as he stood within the shadow of death, "and his actions have been good. My son, to you I give my daughter. In your care I have no fear for her." Chenowlth, with eloquence in his final words and gesture, stepped back and uttered a warwhoop. Soldiers grasped the free end of the rope and his body was hoisted from the earth. A grave, so the story goes, had al ready been dug near by the execu tion ground. In his speech Chenowlth had pointed to the hole and had ap pealed that his body be not laid to moulder In the cold earth. He ex plained that he was wealthy. Go, he said, ' and sell of my ponies that pasture on the lowlands and pur chase robes that myself and my war riors may have decent burial-In ac cordance with our ancient rites." His surviving friends were given the right to carry out his request. Lieutenant Weda Indian. Mr. Underwood at the time of the execution was but 22 years of age. To humor the sentenced man he accepted his charge, although he had never seen the daughter. It was more than five years before he laid eyes on Ellen', as the Indian girl had been christened when she was baptized by missionaries, and during that time the young girl, according to the Indian custom, had been given to Lieutenant W. K. Lear, a young officer at the post. As Mrs. Olsen tells the story of those pioneer days, the Indians of the Cascades wished protection from the whites. 'Lieutenant Lear saw my mother, who was a beautiful maiden," says Mrs. Olsen, 'and fell in love with her. My grandmother called a council of er people and It was decided that It I would be wise for them to accept the officer's proposals. The two were married according to the Indian law. To them a child was born, a little girl. Isabella, ' "Then Llteuenant Lear was trans ferred, first to California, then to Arizona and later to Alaska. My father came back again to the Mid.-Colum-mla and while passing through the Cascade post saw my mother for the first time. He remembered his promise and soon he and my mother were married and shortly removed to their home for so many years at Underwood. My father's brother, Ld Underwood, came to the Mid-Columbia after a few years and fell In love with the girl, Isabella, and they were married. Generosity Is Shown. "Always our home has been the rendezvous for Indians of the sur rounding country. They have come to my father and mother and grandmoth er. the latter having resided with us for many years, for advice. The poor have come for help and the troubled for words of solace. I have never known a nobler old woman than my grandmother. She never recovered the loss of her husband, who. as she said, was executed unjustly. She had cause to bate the whites, but she ascribed tho act to ignorance and what bitter ness was hers she kept within her own breast. My grandmother always had plenty and never did I see her fall to divide it with Indians coming to her for aid. "A few years ago I had occasion to visit the Yakima Indian Reservation. At first I was just an ordinary Indian visitor. Then I told someone of my grandfather. After that nothing was too good for me. 'She is the grand daughter of Chenowith," I heard them tell each other, and I was feasted and entertained like a princess." Mr. Underwood was one of the pio neers of Oregon who helped to make the history of the country. As a vol unteer in Company B, Oregon volun teers, of which he was a corporal, he participated in the Cayuse war of 1855. training course . extends over three months.
