DIR. LoRIMER's FAMILY NAME.
MacNamara the Real Patronymic OF
the Great Preacher.

Some published obituaries of the
hte Rev. DIR. Lorimer err in stating
lhst he was a half-brother OF John II.
Selwyn OF theatrical fame. The two
men were full brothers. The appar-
ent inconsistency involved in their
different names Is explained by the
fact that they both changed their
names when they entered upon the
careers in which they subsequently
distinguished themselves. The family
name was MacNamara, and the late
DIR. Lorimer adopted his Scotch name
when he entered the ministry. while
his brother chose the theatrical name
OF Selwyn when he became a theater
manager. Their half-brother was
Harry Josephs, their mother having
married Josephs for her second hus-
band.

THE WEEKLY
PANORAMA
Tim" WOODRUFF WAS sHaEwD
Clever Scheme Which Explains His
Success as Presiding officer.


Tim" Woodruff showed his Con-
necticut shrewdness when he was
elected lieutenant governor OF New
York. He had 70 preside over the
senate. Of course. but he did not know
three members OF that body by sight.
and the prediction was that he'd be at
sea, because he couldn't recognize the
senator's when they addressed him.
Timothy disappointed these prophets.
He secured photographs OF each sena-
Tor and thoroughly memorized each
face. AS soon as the seats were
drawn he had diagram OF the room
prepared and the face of the occupant
Of each chair pasted thereon. Under
meath was the senator's name in large
letters. Woodruff never made a mis-
take and this will explain the mystery
of his success 10 many persons who
marvelcd at his precision as a presid-
Ing officer.

HUNDREDS KILLED
British Losses Insignifi-

Tuna Tibet, April 2.--The Tibetan gen
eral, the whole of his personal escort and
five high Lhassa officials were among the
hundreds killed in the fighting of March
81, at Gufa, Tibet Two small British
losses are accounted for by the fact that
the men are so huddled together that the
majority were unable either to use their
swords or to fire. The swordsmen i'll the
had fixed bayonets, while the men in the
middle of the mob could not reach the
enemy, but many of them probably killed
each other in the mad excitement. The
scene of recalled time fights in cockpits,
the grim determined faces of the Tibetans
lighted with devildom savagery, express
ing contempt for the Sikhs whom they
outnumbered six or seven to one.
When the Lhassa general fired the first
