A TIN PAN WALKER

Want to have some extra fun In
the water this summer?
Just follow the plan of the
English bathers.
They use two large tin pans. A
bather Is coaxed to place a foot In
each pan, as they float. He Is then
instructed TO walk, as he might on
snow skis. The results are highly
amusing. Pan races are popular at
English bathing places.

London, July io.---Madariai Dhina-

killed Lieutenant Colonel Sir William
Putt Cursor Wyilie and DR.. Canvas Lal-
caca, was today committed for trial at
the Old Bailey for murder.
The prosecution offered documents
containing the prisoners handwriting.
tending to show that the crime was
long premeditated, and in revenge for
alleged wrongs to India.
The prisoner, in q statement, said:
81 do not wish to say anything In
defense OF myself, but simply to prove
the justice Of my deed. AS for my
self, do not think that an English
law court has any authority to arrest
and detain me In prison, or to pass on
me a sentence of death. That is the
reason I have not employed counsel.
I maintain that IL 1t Is patriotic for
Englishmen to fight against the Ger
mans II they occupy this country. then
1t IL much more justifiable and more
patriotic in my case to fight against
the English. I hold that the Eng
fish people are responsible for the
murder OF 100000 Of my conntrymen
during the last fifty years, and that
they are also responsible for the taxi
ing of fI00, 900, 900 every year from In
dia to this country. I also hold that
II they are responsible for the hanging
and deportation of my patriotic coun-
trymen, who do just what the English
here are advising their countrymen to
DO. II the Germans have not no right
to occupy this country. then the Eng
lish have no right to occupy India. and
II is perfectly justifable on our part

ing our sacred land"
