ROME, September IS, 1910
The extraordinary event of municipal
assembly being expelled from the town
hall by body of women has occurred
at the little Roman suburb of Rocca
Priora.
Some time ago the councillors created
discomfort among the population by OPP
posing the opening of new road. Seeing
that 1t was not obtained by fair means.
the women resolved to punish the coun-
cilors.
A plan was accordingly formed by 800
women to storm the hall during sitting
of the council, and the secret was so well
guarded that not a single man had the
least suspicion of what was going TO
happen.
In the midst of debate an army Of
women marched into the hall and ordered
the councillors to leave the premises. as
they were no longer worthy of popular
confidence.
In the presence of the numerical
periority of the intruders, the handful
of councillors found themselves helpless.
and to avoid a skirmish they left the
building with protests. The town hall
was then locked up by the women, and
the key handed to the police, with
the. Injunction that it was only to be
given to government official.
Having accomplished. their little coup
d etat, the revOlutionaries went home.
where they were congratulated by their
husbands and fathers. The same even
ing the elected councillors sent a tele-
gram to the government authorities an
nOuncing their resignation.

Looking very smart and busnessike in
their fresh coats of battleship gray paint,
the two destroyers Parramatta and
ARA. built on the Clyde to the order of
the Australian commonwealth govern
ment to form the nucleus of the Aus
tralian navy, have sailed from Ports
mouth. Their departure was treated as
an ordinary naval movement by the au-
thorities, there being neither salute nor
demonstration, though as the vessels
steamed out of the harbor flying the
commonwealth flag the crews OF British
warships in the stream and at Spithead
lined up in an informal way as though
silently to bid their colonial comrades
godspeed and farewell. At Spithead the
Parramatta and Yarra picked up his
majesty's cruiser Gibraltar, which has
been detailed to carry relief crews to the
squadron in the far east and which will
act as convoy to the destroyers far
as Colombo.
