The munlclDalltv hardlv knows what to do, but has sent a committee to Ber lin to consult hiarh leral authority and perhaps beg the kaiser to rule on the matter himself. The municipality can not distrain on the goods of the regi ment because they are government prop erty. Neither can it distrain on the officers' private. effects, for individ ually, they did net give the ball tt waa a general regimental arrair. No one has yet thought of the solu tion of raising a public subscription in order to pay the $2, and so Sagan and now, as the whole story is comlnfr out, the rest of the oountry, will battle away at thle terrible storm In a teacup. In Sagan the upper classes are on the side of the officera But they, of course, attended the ball. The trades people and lower classes who are in the majority favor the municipality. It may be possible, when the matter comes to the kaiser's ears, that he will order the regiment to another station and leave Sagan without any military, whieh will be a fearful condition for society, for young women and for trades peopla And all for the aake of $2.
