WILHELM LONGS TO
RENEW FRIENDSHIP
WITH ENGLISH KIN
EX-KAISER TAKES FATHER-LIKE
INTEREST IN EXPLOITS OF
PRINCE OF WALES
LONDON, Oct. 31.—Wilhelm Hoh
enzollern—the lonely man of Doom,
erswhile Kaiser of the German Empire
—longs for old friendships and family
relations according to reliable infor
mation received here.
The ex-Kaiser’s thouhgts have re
i cently turned to his happy relatives
I in England, who in olden days were
I good friends and the source of mariy
pleasures.
| 'King George is a first cousin of the
; ex-Kaiser and there are several oth
! ers closely associated with Bucking
ham palace who are blood relatives of
the exiled emperor. In pre-war days
the King of England and the German
Emperor were more than friendly
I souvereigns and exchanged visits, tho
j it is said that the King of Great Brit
ain was rather often displeased with
the blustering manners of his cousin
from Germany. The German Emperor,
however, liked England despite his
sometimes tactless and outspoken con
tempt for English customs.
Memories of happy days in the past
are rolling by in panorama before the
exiled emperor in his lonely Doome
home, and it is understood that he has
been overcome with a great ambition
to once again be regarded as a friend
by his relatives in England. He is
said to have ambitions to visit Eng
land again.
Through diplomatic friends in Ger
many, Holland and England, it is un
derstood, the exKaiser has made over
tures to his British relatives and has
intimated that he would like to make
peace with the family. There has been
no response from England, however,
and none is likely. In the first place
the British royal family knows too
well that public opinion would never
tolerate any restoration of the old
relatins, and moreover, it is said that
the royal family regards British pub
lic contempt for the former emperor
as being more than well-founded,
j There is no chance for forgiveness
from the English side of the Channel,
no matter how contrite may be the
first cousin on the Dutch side of the
Channel.

TALES OF OLDTIMERS
PROVED BY SCIENCE
For many moons outsiders have
sneered at the tales of ice worms
and snow bugs, told by oldtimers who
have had more or less experience with
these natural curiosities. And now
comes science to prove that not only
do ice worms exist but that the ice
bug, a cross between an ice worm
and a vermiform appendix are to
be found on many glaciers in the in
terior. The ice bug has but two legs
and propels itself swiftly across the
face of the glacieis by kicking with
its hind feet. It has eyes on the end
of long feelers like a cuttle fish, and
suckles its young, its breasts standing
out between its cars on top of its
head.
When calling its young it emits a
sound like ‘“blah-blah,” and is strict
ly a nocturnal animal, having a rear
coupling like a linghtning bug with
Ford headlights. The ice bug is not
dangerous if its bite is properly treat
ed with spirits frumenti and every
old timer goes well prepared to com
bat this enemy of the prospector. On
the Valdez glacier many years ago,
after imbibing a quart or so of pre
ventive the writer saw a flock of ice
bugs but was unable to capture a
specimen on account of darkness. Ice
worms a foot or more in length are
to be found in the vicinity of the ice
bug’s lair, and the ferocious little bug
preys on these worms, sucking them
from their skin by means of a sharp
proboscis-like sucker. Any person
visiting a glacier at night may see
these skins blowing around on the
ice.
Joe Burns and Mel Horner had
specimens which were preserved in
alcohol but unfortunately the Vol
stead act prevented their being pre
served, the loss to natural history be
ing irreparable.
Today’s freight train took the larg
er part of the passengers from the
Alaska to Anchorage.
Marshal H. P. Sullivan and wife re
turned to Valdez on the Alaska, fol
lowing a trip to the States.
P. C. Maas, boss baker for Andy’s
Cafe, in Valdez, was a returning pas
senger to the glacier city on the
Alaska.
