Just year ago, at this time, WELL

herself as Ethel" Sutro and claiming

to get her under any alias. This is
the way the game is worked: The lit

is driven up in appropriate carriage
with liveried coachman to some swell

gives directions for it to be delivered
at some exact time at No. 8 West Thir-

pick up some trif1e, such as 3 silver
pocketbook or card case, and have II
charged. When the article arrives at
Mr.. Clews' residence, Miss doe" is seen
Just leaving the steps, ostensibly about
to 20 out. She then offers some good
excuse to the carrier for taking 1t her
self and if successful marches away
with the booty. A great many thing!
she never gets, of course, and Mr.
Clews' home will be deluged with silks

England have been appealed to
through a circular signed by 1O5

asking them to cease to demoralize
the people by reporting sensational
cases OF immortality or brutality and
in other ways appealing to the
sensual nature OF man.
