INDIAN PRINCESS
MAY BE EXECUTED
The Rance Sahiba of Amritsar Seems
to he a Modern BOrgfa

Bombay. India, July A murder
trial which has caused more excite
ment throughout India than any other
criminal case Of recent years came up
yesterday in the chief court Of Pun
jab. on appeal from the lower court of
Amritsar, Punjab. The defendant,
who was the principal in a tragedy
which is reminiscent of a tale from
the Decameron. is the Sudorani Bhag-
wan kaur, commonly known the
Rance Sahiba. She was convicted in
the lower court Of killing her lover, a
Brahmin named kahan Chand, and
sentenced TO be hanged by the neck
until dead. The Rance is of a rank
equivalent to that of princess in the
Punjab royal house. and the posi-
biliry of the infection Of the death pen
atty upon d woman of such prom-
nence has aroused all India to protest.
The Rance is noted for her beauty
and is said 10 be the loveliest princess
in the empire. Her husband, the Sir
dar Dyal Singh, died some years ago
and since then there have been spicy
rumors of the RANGES love affairs
with various men, including. 1t has
been alleged, prominent officer of the
British army. Kahan Chand was one
of the lady's lovers. but the tickle
princess tired of him and told him to
be done. The smitten man refused to
leave off his attentions She then in
yited him 10 visit her in her private
apartments on the night Of Feb 20
last and gave him glass Of milk con-
tanning arsenic He was then remov-
ed to another room. where he died,
and two days later the body was Sc
|cretly removed by trusted servants Of
the Rance In passing sentence the
Judge Of the lower court denounced
the titled lady and declared it was diff
ficult to conceive of more cold
bIooded murder

There is more catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other dis
eases put together. and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For a great many years doctors
pronounced ii a local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly falling to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca

unnatural death - and all through
