American Girl Says
She Wants Plenty

LONDON. June Il. - There is much
disappointment that the Duchess of
Roxburghe is not going 10 play any
conspicuous part in society during the
coming season. Those who were aware
that she had abandoned the idea Of
acquiring a permanent town residence
thought she would at least secure a
house for the season. She viii not be
seen much in London during June, as
her time viii be fully occupied super
intending the extensive alterations she
is going 10 carry out at Floors Castle.
In spite Of the protestations Of the
Dowager Duchess. she is pulling the
place 10 pieces and means TO convert
il into a residence more in keeping with
American ideas. Like the Duchess Of
Manchester with reg to Kylemore
Castle. she wants more elbow room
Two or three rooms are TO be knocked
into one. electric lights are TO be in
stalled. and the castle throughout will
be heated on the latest American prin-
ciples. The old-fashiOned nursery is to

until the early autumn. A series OF en-

the American friends OF the Duke and
Duchess who viii so north for the

much opposed 20 the undermining Of
the castle, even internally. She did not

RUSSIA'S RED CROSS
IN MIDST OF SCANDAL
High Of1iciaIs Of the Government Are
Accused Of MisapprOpriating
War Funds

ST. PETERSBURG, June 11.-Great
indignation is expressed here at the
nalversation Of the funcs Of the Red
Cross Society.
Numbers Of impecunious aristocrats.
women Of the court and officers Of the
guards, who are favorites in high cir
cIes. have been appointed TO sinecures
at extravagant salaries, amounting in
some cases 10 thousand or pounds per
annum.
This state Of affairs is all the more
deplora bic as there are plenty Of COM
petent organizers willing TO do the
work for nothing.
The most sensational case, says the
Revolutionaia Russia. Is that Of Gen
eral SchwedOh, a member Of the st.
Petersburg committee. who borrowed"
$500 900 from the funds Of the society
IN order 10 gamble on the Stock Ex-
change. His speculations being unsuc-
cessful. his deficit became manifest.
The Czsrins, however. herself paid the
missing sum so as 10 avoid a public
scandal and save the general, who is a
special favorite at court. General
Shuedoff was even retained as a mem
Der Of the committee, but precautions
were taken 70 prevent further Dor
rowing operations
Similar scandals occurred in MOSCOW,
where a Prince Galitzin and a Count
Lansky kept money collected from the
Red Cross for themselves. Count Ian
sky refuses TO hand over either the
money OF the subscription list, while
the Prince has paid UP $500. but keeps
back the list.
These occurrences have not failed to
arouse the suspicious OF the public, and
many wealthy and charitable people
now refuse 10 give any money to the

have wasted much ink in the last few
days in taking to task Mime. Emma
Calve. the famous prima donna. In a
recent interview that was widely print
ed Nine. Calve said:
You cannot understand how 7 have
struggled during the last ten years
Here l am already an old woman at
40. when others at that age still retain
their youthful appearance. In my case
1t is the penalty of an uphill struggle. -
The Paris editors were greatly aston
ished at Nine. Calves words. and said
so with much emphasis. Some of them
hint that the prima donna should at
least have too much pride to admit that
she has become a mice old LADY, at
her youthful age.
Many women writer's for the Paris
papers have taken up the subject and
every day they rail at the famous
singer Some of them have gone so far
as to assert that "a woman is not a

Korea will be represented by native
women residents in Europe. America

foreign delegations, because it has been
the pioneer in woman's progress and
because Susan B. Anthony, the grand
old LADY, of the movement all over the
world, has promised to honor the con-
clave with her presence. Mrs. May
Wright Sewall of Indiana. in her ca
pacity of president of the International
Council Of Women, will WELD thegavel
at all general sessions of the congress.
Another special honor will be paid to-
the United States, when the congress
devotes an entire evening TO the dis
cussion of the theories of Mrs. Char
lotte Perkins Stetson of New York,
while DR.. Anna Shaw, the famous
American woman preacher, has been
invited to introduce to Germany the
innovation of sermon from a woman
the first of its kind that the Father
land will ever have heard.
Because the woman's movement has
had such an uphill fight In Germany,
where man is everything and his bet
ter half almost nothing, few leaders
have been developed who enjoy reputa-
tions extending beyond the frontiers of
their own country Yet such names as

ers Of various departments of the COM
ing congress, are well known through
out most European countries as vigor-
Gus and relentless workers in their
chosen field. That German women
have a difficult struggle TO gain the
headway women have made elsewhere

that only a few years ago were they
able to secure the repeal of law bar

have succeeded in getting this corre-
spondent sent away because he dared to
comment severely upon their methods
of government.
With King Peter going melancholy
mad ne dreams that he is pursued by the
ghost OF King Milan calling for venge-
ance on the murderers of Alexander,
his son, and with the country growing
more and more disgusted at the present
regime, the chances of exciting events
increase every day.
AT present it would be rash to
prophesy long reign for King Peter
or a long period Of peace for his un-

VIENNA, June live have been ex-

ton that people are now asking Isl:
Will the expulsion from Belgrade of the
London Daily Mail correspondent pre-

The order of expulsion was issued by
the group of officers who took leading
parts in the plot to kill King Alexan-

make a puppet of King Peter. They
are getting rather sensitive of criti-
cism.

EMPEROR WILLIAM HOSTILE.
Owing to the opposition of Emperor
William, which is fully shared by the
Empress Augusta Victoria, no social
ed society women have identified them
selves prominently with the woman's
movement in Germany. Court leaders
and royalties are conspicuousIy missing
from all affairs connected with it. IT
is possible, however, that the wives of
a few Cabinet Ministers, perhaps even
Countess Won Bulow, the spouse of the
Imperial Chancellor, will dare to brook
imperial scowls by entertaining the
delegates to the Berlin congress at gar
den parties or evening receptions. The
most pretentious social function so far
planned is a reception at the Berlin
City Hall, which will be rendered by
the municipality as welcome to the
congress. Frau Oberbuergermeister

EXPERIENCE
In the Treatment of Humours

CUTICURA REMEDIES.
4 Remarkable Testimonial from
a Most Intelligent and
Trustworthy Lady.

"a tumor came on my neck and in q
day or two it was as large as half an
orange. I was very much alarmed for
fear it was malignant. My friends
tried to persuade me to consult my
physician; but dreading that he would
insist on using the knife, would not
consent to go. Instead, got Cuticura
Resolvent and Cuticura Ointment. 7
took the former according to direc.
tons, and spread thick layer of the
Ointment on the swelling. On renew
ing it l would battle my neck in very
warm water and Cuticura Soap. In q
few days the Cuticura Ointment had
drawn the swelling to head, when it
broke. Every morning it was opened
with large sterilized needle, squeezed
and bathed, and fresh Ointment put
on. Pus and blood, and a yellow,
cheesy, humorous matter came out. In
about three or four weeks time this
treatment completely eliminated the
tumor. The soreness that had ex-
tended down into my chest was all
gone, and my neck now seems to be
perfectly we'll.
"About five or six years ago my sis
ter had a similar experience, used the
Cuticura Remedies with magical effect.
