FEAR RIOTS IN BELFAST
Lord Churchill Determined to Hold
Home Rule Meeting. and unioni.ts
Predict Observation-Disclosures Will
Halt Meeting 1t Any Cost.

London. Jan. 25.-The determination
Of Winston Spencer Churchill, first
lord of the admiralty, not to change
his decision to hold the meeting in
favor of home rule at which he and
john F. Edmund. leader Of the Irish
nationalists. are to speak at Belfast on
Feb. 8. has caused the deepest appre-
hension among modern unionists re-
garding the consequences Of the Ul-
stermen's decision to prevent it at all
costs.
The English unionist press is urging
Mr.. Churchill to cancel his visit. point
ing out that a fight between the two
parties on the day Of the demonstra-
ton at Belfast will not put an end to
the trouble.
Fears are expressed in some quar-
ters that hostilitiea Will be carried on
not only for weeEs but months, not
only in Belfast but thruout Ulster. The
prospects Of a fight are prompting
many adherents of both factions to
visit Belfast and should riots occur
there the police would be utterly in
adequate to cope with them.
Even the troops WHICH have been or
dered to the city will fnd it difficult
to restore order.

First Rescue From Drowning Accom-

VVOS 0OBSUO from browning ACCOM-.
plishsd by Asropians.
Thompsonvtlle, Conn, Jan. 25.-
What is believed to be the first rescue
from drowning by aeroplane occurred
mile south Of this village. The cir
cumstances surrounding the rescue are
most spectacular.
Dora Pease, a 6-year- old child, resid-
ing in a small cottage on the banks Of
the Connecticut river, while returning
from kindergarten. stopped to watch
men harvesting ice on the river. Her
childish curiosity aroused. she crept to
the open space In the river below the
ice cutters, who did not notice her.
Two large cakes of ice attracted her
attention and seating herself upon
them the little one began to amuse
herself by propelling them along the
smooth surface of the frozen river.
Suddenly the ice cutters were
aroused by a loud splash and child's
screams, and were Mortified to see the
child seated on an ice cake floating
rapidly down the river toward the En-
eld falls. $50, feet away. An attempt
to rescue the child by means of long
rope failed. Several Of the men ran
along the banks of the river and one
Of them, throwing off his heavy boots,
sprang after her. !,
The cold water forced him to aban-
don the attempt, however, and in a
few minutes the child :vas within g
few feet of the falls, which roared and
surged as the water struck the rocks
thirty feet below.
The attention of the panic stricken
men was detracted from the child in
her perilous position by a whirring
above them as Charles S. Jenkins
amateur aviator, swept down from the
Suffield hills to the west and over the
river. BY gestures the ice cutters at
tracted his attention to the child who
seemed to them to be at the very brink
of the falls
The child,s attention had also been
attracted to the aeropIane, which was
swooping down upon her and, kneel-
ing upon the ice raft, she waved her
hands and screamed to the aviator AS
the machine passed over the cakes OF
ice, the child made. leap and wild
clutch, grasping cross support far
below the engines and was lifted to
the seat by Jenkins
Just as the child leaped the ice
reached the brink Of the falls and fell
to the surging water below, minus its
victim. The machine was brought tc
earth on the shore Of the river and the
little girl taken TO her home.
