MEMBERS DF ROYAL GUARD
DISSATISFIED WITH LOT
ROME, April, 5, (By Mail)—Some
of tho most unhappy men in Italy
are said to be the sixty soldiers of
the King's guard who are not per
mitted to go to the front and fight
like their brothers. Tho reaf*m for
th-3 restriction is that these* sixty
men could probably not be replaced
if killed, injured or taken prisoners.
They are chosen with the utmost
care, not only as regards their
habits and training but for their
height, the minimum of which is six
feet.
“They begin where other men stop
growing,” according to a popular
saying. Many of them are seven
feet in height. They are chosen
from the carabinieri or military
police and must have absolutely un
stained records. Each newly enroll
' «d man, if he accepts the appoint
| ment, must agree to remain for a
j term of five years in the guard, after
. which he may or may not re-enlist.
i
During that period, also, he may not
marry. • i
The guards and their horses are
quartered inside the grounds of the
royal palace on Quirinal Hill. The
guard does sentinel duty inside the
grounds when King Victor Emtnan
uel is in Rome, and also accorrjjuyiy
him on state occasions, as on that of
March 14, 1912, when, as the King
was going along the Corso to visit
the tomb of his father in the Pan
theon, the anarchist d'Alba fired at
at him twice and wounded Cap
tain Dang of the Guard instead.
Since the war began, although the
King lives at the front and under
goes all the dangers, members of the
guard are to be seen now and then
walking through the streets of Rome,
attracting attention and admiration
because of their immense figures and
shining helmets, but, for all that,
jealous of the stained and bespatter
ed gray-green uniforms of soldiers
on leave from the front line trenches.
SALINAS, Cal., May 1—After being
subject to great humiliation ever
since America entered the war. be
cause of the war, Carl Bernard De
triech Kaiser today petitioned the
superior court of Montrey county to
have his name changed to Carl
Bernard Alf.
The reasons given in his petition
for the change of name are as fol
lows: The United States is at war
with the Imperial government of
Germany whose ruler is the opposite
of democracy; cruelty, which is op
posite to humanity; barbarism, which
has no respect for civilization.
Prussian militarism, which hates
Christianity.
The petitioner recites that he is a
native born American citizen, having
been born in Nebraska, and believes
in all the principles of the U. S.
Government; that daily he is sub
jected to great humilition by people
whom he meets because of the name
of his ancestors but changed by Ger
man customs over which he had no
voice.

CIRCUMVENTING TOES
WHO STEAL AUTOMOBILES
EL PASO. Texas, May 1—The
| business of stealing automobiles,
driving them across the international
bridge to Mexico where they were
sold for shipment south to the in
terior and there reassembled and
brought back to the United States,
has long been a profitable one here.
A well organized gang of thieve*
was discovered operating in this
way recently.
This practice has been stopped by
customs order requiring drivers of
automobiles going to Jaurez to show
their state license cards, which must
correspond with the license plates
on the —, cars. As an automobile
thief cannot show those license
cards the new ruling prevents any
stolen cars from crossing the line.
