Youthful German Hikers -Take
Lodging in Castles

COBLENZ, Germany (AP)
For fire cent a night, or 12
cents a day for room and board,
any youth of school age in Ger
many can enjoy all the romance of
the knights of old and live in
medieval castles with their intri
guing secret passages, moats and
drawbridges. More than that, this
opportunity is extended to the
youth of all lands, and has already
been taken advantage of by a
number of American boys and
girls. '
One of the popular movements
In the young German repnblie is
that of the "Jugendherbergen,"
or Inns for the Youth. Those in
charge, with a stroke, of genius,
conceived the idea of converting
the ruins of anelent-castles on the
Rhine. In the Thurinfan Forest,
in ' Westphalia, in the' Bavarian
Alps, and elsewhere into simple
but clean lodging houses for the
taken to the Idea with enfhtsjn;!. awg. V. "
ana au over Germany one eneoxsH
ters groups of boys or girts of
high school age who for mere pit
tance have the opportunity of see
ing the historic sights 'of Germany
and of lodging in surroundings
that stir the Imagination. .
It usually suffices to - restore
a s.rnie vlsg or a castle, and con
vert it Into living cuarters. and to
leave the rest of the structure as
it was in days of yore. The boys or
g, accompanied by a tutor or
-. liapci-cae, put up in this hostelry
for the night, and during the day
"explore the mysteries of the castle,
and swim In the Rhine or such
other waters as happen to be
near. .
The figure of five cents, or 20
pfennigs, is the lowest one pos-
sible. It means that the boy or

Youngsters who wish. to do
their own cooking may do so. It
is therefore no uncommon sight to
see boys or girls marching along,
each with a knapsack, from one of
which protrudes a frying pan,
from another a small kettle, from
a third a eoffe pot. A jolly lot
they are, singing as they walk.

John McCarthy, third assistant
engineer of the San Juan, said he
did not know to which boat he
was assigned for fire or boat drill.
McCarthy said he had only been
promoted to his post a week be
fore the crash.
Leathers also testified that an
other substitution had taken place
on the boat before the crash
which cost 80 lives, but could not
state whether this substitution
was due to the poker game.
YIELDS TO PEOPLE
MONACO, Sept. 12. (AP)
The political crisis In this tiny
state ended this afternoon in what
appears a complete triumph for
the subjects of Prince Louis.
' Princess Charlotte, heiress ap
parent, tqjd representatives of the
citizens party that she would take
the responsibility of accepting, on
behalf of her father, all their de
mands. They had asked for the
right to reform the constitution,
remake the budget, control gov
ernment expenditures and have a
general supervision ol . an con
tracts between the Monte Carlo
casino and the government.
In some quarters it was be
lieved that the triumph of the peo
ple portends the end of the prince
ly regime in Monaco, always pro
viding that the prince signs the
decrees. Hia daughter was takinz
them to hjm tonight, expecting to
meet him either in Marseilles or
in Paris.
If the decrees are sicned the
winter season should be tranquil
and permit tourists to spend their
money in peace. If the prince re
fuses, there is talk of a revolt.
Louis has hitherto refused the
cltiiens demands on the ground
that gun ting them would give his
subjects supervision over a con
siderable portion of bis private
income. - : , - v ' ;

NEW YORK (AP) A mech
anical renins whom, all motors
recocnizo as their master is the
new portrayal of CoL Charles A.
Lindbergh,
ft is a picture that has shaped
itself aradually to portray the
famous aviator as one entitled io
recognition for-extraordinary vers
atility.
A world that read with avidity
all that was written ot tbe young
American aviator when he rode
into their hearts through the
eouds of the Atlantic is gaining a
new appreciation of his accomp
lishments. Not only in the air, wh- e his
exploits first turned the attention
or-the world to his skill, but on
land or sea, the flying colonel is
at home. Motorcycle and automo
bile, airplane and motorboat, find
their master in the tall slim fig
ure that is known the world over.
The evolution by which Lind
bergh became an all around mo
torist was completed when he
learned the intricacies of manning
alone a launch. Itwas upon the
Mouette, the sleek craft upon
which he successfully sought to
escape the curious eyes of the
world for his honeymoon with the
former Anne Morrow, tnat Lind
bergh essayed his role as a sea
pirot.
His motoring education began
in tender years when he tinkered
with bicycles and motorcycles in
Little Falls, Minn. His means of
transportation during his brief
career as a university student at
Madison, Wis.,, was astride a "one
lunger" motorcycle which legend
has it he inveigled to do 50. to
60 miles an hour while the na
tives shc'ok their head&r
His uncanny knowledge of the
Intricate details of the power
house of the vehicles he drives
has Inspired a self confidence that
is responsible, in a large degree.
for his daring.
The most recent example of nis
sang froid in dangerous pursuits
was given by the flying colonel on
the Detroit automobile proving
grounds. Stepping into a strange
ou to mobile, he whirled around the
track at the dizzy speed of 112
miles an hour. Not fas for an avia
tor but sufficient to qualify him
to join the daredevils of the -ace
track.
The truth is that Lindhei: has
a lacuity ol doing wen wnaiever
he tackles: whether at work or
play he conquers the job at hand.
A glimpse of the lighter side of
his versatile, character was given
In stories that seeped out of Presi

shoes over pegs with a consistency
that discouraged all contestants

With its destruction; army of

while enroute to the Pacific pos

Its 105 round trip- voyages be
tween 'San Francisco and the Phil

officers, women and enlisted men
have been carried.
Men of the sword still recall the
tradition of the Thomas as a hon
eymoon special to the far tast.
Young lieutenants, with new: shiny
bars and new wives, made the
trip to their assignments aboard
the sturdy vessel.
Since its purchase from the At
lantic Transport company the
Thomas underwent many changes
and rebuilding. Originally the
Minnewaska. built in Belfast. Ire
land, in 1894, it was first used
after governmental purchase to
transport troops to Cuba. Then
followed the Philippine insurrec
tion and Boxer rebellion. The
Thomas, with seven other ships
since decommissioned, was made
a troop carrier under the direction
of the war department. The eight
ships were bought for 900,000
each.
At one time or another, it is
claimed, all officers of the army
were aboard the Thomas bound
for the Orient or home.
