He is leaving of his own free will, and volition." { Ambassador Bernstorfl's state-| ment confirmed rumors which have been in circulation for the last few days that Dr. Dernburg's speeches! and statements, seeking to justify the sinking of the Lusitania, would make his further presence in this country impossible. "I only know," Ambassador Berns- torff said, "that Dr. Dernburg told me he had decided to leave the Unit- ed States. Dr. Dernburg is a com- missioner of the German Red Cross, His decision to leave the United States was voluntary and without suggestion from the Embassy or the German Government. Dr. Dernburg is a private citizen." : "Do you contemplate asking the United States Government to obtain safe eonduct to a Holland pert. so} that he would be immune from de- tention at sea by the British or French, as has been suggested?" Count von Bernstorff was asked. "I have not heen requested to deo 80," the Ambassador replied. "All 1 know about Dr. Dernburg's inten- tions is that he told me that he will leave the United States." ALFRED G6. VANDERBILY, JR. Heir to his father's 'millions and Recruits Asked (Special to the Whig.) London, May 18.--Lord Kitchener this afternoon issued a call for three hundred thousand more recruits for the British army. This 'was announe. ed in the course of a speech by Lord Kitchener this afternoon in the House of Lords.

Reichstag Friday, said: "Wheat for bread for the current year is not only sufficient, but there is a greater reserve than was antici- pated.

Battersea Has Improved Greatly -- A Popular Summer Resort. Dattersea, May 17.--We read quite a lot in' the Kingston papers urging the people to beautify their property 80 that the city will have a better ap- pearance, which is perfectly right, It may be in line here to mention a few sugestion for the surroundimg vil- lages and country. A thorough cleaning up in the spring time and & little paint on buildings and -fepces used each year makes a vast improve- ment to a person's property. I have in my mind at present a village which strikes me very for- cibly, as I have oceasion to pass through quite frequently. This lit- tle place 1s. 16 miles from the eity, and is called "Battersea". It is sit- uated on the shores of Loborough Lake which is famous for good fish- ing. For the last ten years wonder- ful improvements have taken place. At the entrance of the village ene runs gently through the village and gives ample water power for milling. Two very fine and up-to-date hotels with the best of accommadation for travellers' and tourists, have a room- ing capacity of 75. to 100. The best of all is; there is ne bar to sell into- xicating drinks in which to destroy the fine young men growing up in the village and surrounding country. The village has fine houses and good general stores, with the new gas lighting system which makes the stores very attractive. While spending a part of a day last week in the village, and taking note of the improvemen going on, 1 was urged to write th's short arti cles: People thgt shaw: such patrio- tism towards their village needs pub- lication. - I noticed while taking abservation.
