— BERLIN Ruling in City of Cologne is of Streets and Autos M That Pedestrian is Monarch ust Look Out For Him. Berlin, Oct. 14. (A—American travelers coming to Berlin from Paris in their touring cars declare that the most difficult city in Ger- many for a chauffeur is Cologne. The pedestrian, they say, is ab- solute monarch of the streets. It is impossible for an automobile to drive through the streets of the in- | ner city even at moderate speed, be- cause pedestrians will listen to no ' siren or horn, but calmly proceed in the middle of the street until ft suits their convenience to turn aside. “It s enough to drive any chauffeur erazy” tourists declare. In this respect Cologne is the very opposite of Berlin, where acci- dents are the order of the day be- cause autos drive recklessly through the streets, not even stopping when a street car halts. German Railways Adopt Unique Time Computation A unique time computation of 0,00 has resulted from the adoption by the German rallways of the 24 hour time table. Theoretically, of course, | the new system of reckoning time calls for a computation of from 0 to 24, whereby the arrival of trains at midnight is to be designated with 24. But though no one ever thought of 0,00 as a time specification for | any train on wh , this vacuous numeral has notwithstanding be- come an accepted, official, item of *he German time-table in which th slow passenger train for Leipzig § sceduled as leaving the Anhalter | Bahnhot in Berlirn at 0,00 o'clock. Rural Life In Siam Treated On Screen Prince Rangsit of Siam, a brother | has produced | of the reizning king a film here which h:s the merit of dealing with an entirely novel sub- ject:—rural life in Siam. The prince has studied {n Heidel- | berg and is married to a German | to idea how the woman. He corceived the show the western world castern world really lives, Avoiding hackneyed scenes and pictures of palaces and temples, he has chosen as the central tigure of story Kru, 2 Lao peasant. Kru's hard struggle for life in the jungle, wife and children constantly men- aced by wild elephants, tigers and snakes, s faithfully portrayed. The film s the typical Stamese tiller of th» soil, and he stands as the symbel of Siam,” the prince says. Nois~ Making Insects Must Be Able To Hear Insects that chirp, pipe, sing or! kum must be gifted with a sense of hearing, conclides Professor Nor- bert in an article in the Volks-Zei- tung. He argues that such noises voluntarily produced can only be intended for insects of the with | hown under the name of | same ! | species and not for other living be- ings. Professor Norbert thinks a cer- tain organ that has been located on the legs of crickets and on the stomach of locusts may very well serve the same purpose as the ear {in the human being.

Prominent Agitators Married In Germany Captain Ehrhardt, of the late Tm- perial German navy and one of the lcaders of the notorlous “Kapp Putsch,” was married to the wealthy Princess Margarete zu Hohenlohe- | Ochringen at the latter's estate of | | Damm near Friesack. Captain Ehr- ,rarm was recently divorced by his first wife. Both bride and bridegroom have | for years been prominent political | egitators, as which both have also been arraigned in court. Recently the German Government decreed | | that Ehrhardt, with his two other contederata Kapp leaders, Geners von Luettwitz and Major Bischoff, was to be held responsible for all | damages inflicted on German prop- | erty by that raid, which were asses- sed at a total of 0.000 marks As a starter, the Government will attach 80 marks every month Capt. Ehrhardt's pension. | Last year, Princess was tried before the German su- preme court at Leipzig for perjury committed in Ehrhardt's behalf and | sentenced to jail, twhile Ehrhardt Limself succeeded in escaping. Four vears ago the Princess hecame the legal heiress to the vast possessions of her brother, the late Prince Max Hugo zu Hohenlohe-Ochringen, but it was not until a few months ago that the executors could be induced to turn her legacy over to her, as | her family, for religious rather than political reasons, strongly objected to the prospective marriage of the | Princess, who had heen brought un as a strict Catholic, with the protes- | tant Capt.
