relating events happening between each.
Among the most typical scenes was the
destruction Of the Abbey by the Danes
and the miraculous %appartion Of st. Mer-
VIENNA; the latter, effected by a clever
mechanism, succeeded admirably. The very
animated incident acquired undersigned
realism by the stampede Of a herd Of COWS
from a neighborng meadow, they having
been frightened by the fight OF the Danes
and their gnlloping pursuers.
Another episode which scored was the
wooing Of Princess Matilda by Henry on
the eve Of his accession 20 the crown. The
love scene wss interrupted by the cart bear
ing the body Of Rufus from the forest, where
he had been shot. The driver Of the cart
was a lineal descendant of the charcoal

same trade in the same place ever since.

LONDON, June 25.-The opponents Of living
statuary at the music halls have, as was
foreseen, appealed to the London County
Council over the head OF the Council 8 theatre
committee, which recently declined to for
bid the presentations complained OF. The
Council, by a vote OF 90 to IS, decided to no.
tify the music halls that exhibitions Of living
statuary are not desirable.
This, although it does not amount to a
direct prohibition, will probably have the
same effect, as those ignoring the warming
will be likely to imperil their licenses.

Immediately the officers hired a

missing that they might meet the men
returning to this city. Their surmise
was correct Several miles out they
discerned the headlight of an auto

saw the machine of the officers, ana
turning about fled towards Whittier.
The police threw on all speed ana
succeeded in getting within 200 yards

their heads and the robbers crouchea

The occupants of the police machine
then opened fussilade Of shots and
for a mile continued TO pour run

Suddenly the two men, without slack
ening their speed, leaped and fled in
opposite directions from the road. The
machine struck a telephone pole and
WAS partially wreckeo. ihe officers
were unable to stop quickly enough
and were carried by some distance
Returning they were unable TO find
