His iden- tity was learned yesterday. Count_ Praschma-Bilkau 1is the son of Count Hans Bilkau, lord of a 50,000-acre estate in Silesla, a 20,000-acre forest preserve in Bo- hemia and a 25,000-acre hunting es- tate in the same country. . His first venture in the Amer- icas, a colonization scheme in Mexico, proved to be a swindle, so he came to Kansas City and be- came a bellboy in a local hotel. Later he ebtained a position in the mail order house. “I llke America very much,” the count said yesterday. ‘“There are such unheard-of opportunities here that I really expect to do some- thing worth while.” Every girl in China is expected to know how to embroider handiwork.
