IMPRISONED IN TOWER OF LONDON
International Trial Court to Sit in Londo*' -Penalty Will Not be
Death, But Banishment For Life.
A despatch from London says: -
`William Hohenzollern, the former Ger-
man Emperor, will be brought to Eng-
land in a British ship and imprisoned
in the Tower of London, according to
the Daily Wail.
The death penalty well not be
sought, the newspaper points out, but
if he is found guilty, the allies will
ask his banisbment for life to a re-
mote island, following the precedent
of Napoleon's exile on St. Helena.
The international trial court had
intended to try the fernier Emperor
alone, the Daily Mail says, but it is
possible that the Termer Crown Prince
Frederick William will also be ars
raigned 'before it,
The former German Emperor's
guards at Amerongen have been in-
creased, according to the Daily Mail
correspondcnt,and his staff has
been reduced. Lieut: -Gen. von
E'storff has left for Berlin. Well-
informed circles in The Hague„ this
correspondent says, do not believe
that Holland will give the ex -Emperor
up to the allies. They tire of the opin-
ion -that he will, remain in Holland
for the rest of his life.

BANKNOTE FOR A PENNY.
England Also Issued a Note For One
Million Pounds Sterling.
The smallest banknote ever issued
in this country was the result of a
mistake, and during the period of its
circulation it caused no little annoy-
ance to the cashiers of the Bank of
England when making up their ac-
counts, says an English newspaper.
It was for the sum of one penny,
and was issued in 1828. About fifty
years ago the then holder of it brought
it back to the bank, and after some
little bargaining asked and received
the sum of five pounds for it.
'But banknotes for twopence have
been issued on several occasions by
private banks in this country. There
is a wide gap in value between the
lowest and the highest banknotes ever
issued. The greatest amount ever re-
presented by one of these "flimsies"
was the sum of one million pounds
sterling.. Four of these "million
pounders" were issued, and they
formed the only notes struck from a
plate which was then destroyed. One
of them was in possession of the Rbth=
childs; Coutts, the banker, received
another, the Bank of England retained
the third, and the fourth became the
property of Rogers, the banker -poet,
who had it put into a gold frame and
decorated his parlor wall with it. John Ross.

Day For Empire Peace
Festival,;
A despatch from. Ottawa
His Majesty has icaued a gradema-
tion appointing Sunday the 6th day of
July, as a day of general th_a.nieegiving
for the blessing of peace, and it is
his desire that this day shall be ob•
servile not only in all the United King.
dom, but in all quarters of the Empire.
The King has also given his Baso ton
to a peace eelebratien in the United
Kingdom on Saturday, July 19, and
the hope is expressed that all parts
of the Empire will join as far as pos-
Bible ,in celebrating Reece on that day.
• Inasmuch es war is stilt being wag-
ed in. many campaigns in Europe, and
while peace still remains to be : igned
with three of the enemy nations, the
Government of Canada were of opin-
ion that a later date would be more

WORLD'S FASTEST CAMERA
Two Miles a Second Speed of One
Recently Invented.
A wonderful new invention is a
camera made by Professcr H. B.
Dixon, a Manchester man, which re-
cords on a. filum anything traveling
at a speed of c:ose to two miles a
second. He has constricted the fast-
est camera in the world, usually
taking a hundred yards of film photo-
graph in a second.
This speed is not fast enough, how-
ever, for the profess'or's purpose, and
he is now busy studying the flame of
explosions created by ,alcohol, petrol,
and other motor fuels. He tests them
singly and in mixtures, and is intent
on photographing the flame of an ex-
plosion traveling at a speed of 3,000
yards a second.
He has succeeded in getting his
films to record a flame traveling at
this speed by fixing on the camera
a lens that reduces eaeh image to one- ,
twelfth of the ordinary size and set-
ting the camera at right angles to
the lines along which the flame
travels.
The exact measurements Professor
Dixon has obtained are likely to have
a great effect on the production of
British motor fuel. Attached to his
marvelous camera is a dedicate time-
piece that measures the travel of the
flame dawn to the ten -thousandth of
a second, and with these new instru-
ments the professor is making precise
discoveries of the firing -point of all
the new kinds of motor fuel. He com-
presses them in a `steel cylinder and
then fires them under the eye of the
camera.
