London, March 1.-THE five suf-
fraGettes who yesterday attempted to
reach the King with petitions while he
was OF his way to Parliament were
to-day sent to prison for periods rang
lag from twenty oue days TO II month.
The five young women gave their
names as Lillian Wilcox, Dorothy

The Bow Street magistrate before
whom they were arraigned gave them
an opportunity of escaping prison SEN
fences by filing surctics for their flu

Indignantly rejected This alternative
They were formally charged with
obstructing the police. The evidence
showed that the police had received
specific orders 10 prevent any one from
throwing a letter or Il petition TO the

The accused argued that their action
was perfectly legal, ana WAS based

To Improve Expression
as Well as Completion
Grom Bcau,y's Alirror.)

No face is really beautiful that lacks
expression. DO YOU realize that cou-
iinuaI use OF powders and creams tends
10 spoil pliancy Of skin and elasticity
of expression? Why not quit cosmetics
aud use something; better. which won't
clog the pores or make the skin either
dry or pasty? Ordinary mercolized
wax acts quite differently from any
cosmetic. 1t wonderfully improves any
complexion. giving it life and express
sion By gradually, harmlessly peeling
OFT the thin veil of outer surface skin,
it brings TO view It pure, soft. spotless
complexion, dclicately beautiful and
youthful. Every druggist has this
wax; il is seldom more than one ounce
is needed. IL is spread on nightly like
cold cream and washed off mornings.
In Il week or two the Transformation
IS complete.
Wrinkles do not, OF course, enhance
the expression. Neither do the pasty
things many uso to eradicate them.
y treatment free from all objection is
made by dissolving i or. powdered
saxolite iii 1-2 pit. witch hazel: use as
"a wash lotion. This soon removes
even the most obstinate wrinllles.--

BASED HIS PLEAS
ON FRIENDSHIP
Robert Loonen Must Restore
$4,000 and Serve Sentence of
Three Years.

Especial Cable to The Times Dispa tch.l
Paris, March 1.-THE Ninth Correc-
tional Court OF Paris to-day pronounced
the sensational sentence OF three years
imprisonment and the restitution or
1000 against Robert Loonen. hus-
band OF former Miss Josephine Morss.
daughter of the late Samuel Il. Morss.
owner of the indianapolis Sentinel
Tho sentence was the result or an &C
ton brought against Loonen by a
wealthy New Yorker named Frasch
The present condemnation of Loonen
confirms two sentences previously pro-
nounced against him. During the trial
II was testified that Loonen met
Frasch while crossing the Atlantic
the defendant being on his way 10 New
York 10 cell several patents for a Paris
automobile firm. Loonen promptly in
formed his new acquaintance that Miss
Frasch and Mrs. Loonen were fast
friends having been school compan-
ions. This apparently sealed the
friendship between the two men. and
Frasch invited the young Frenchman
10 stay with him at the Plaza Hotel
in New York
When the friendship waxcd sum
cicntly warm. Loonen requested loan
pleading that he owed two pressing
bills. one OF S35, 900 and the other of
1880.
lie told Frasch that he would be able
10 repay him shorty, he would
nave money coming from two sources
one being the sale ot his wifcs jew
els. ana 100000 from his mothers
estate in France. These statements
we're confirmed by i'aris friends, to
whom he cabled. Frasch claimed that
he then advanced the money to Loonen
and that some months later Loonen
requested another loan. This aroused
the suspicious of the New Yorker. and
he began an investigation, which led
TO the present action. Detective Burns
vas employed several months by
Frasch in looking up the record Of
Young Looncn.
The sympathy or the entire Ameri-
can colony has been extended to Mrs
Looncn. who is highly esteemed here
she is conspicuous in many Paris salons
FOR her histronic art and graceful
dancing. The romantic courtshlp and
marriage OF Loonen and Miss Morss
began in Japan during CHEEKY blossom
time Miss MORSE was making tour
OF the world, in company with her
mother Loonen is the son OF Charles
loonen, wealthy manufacturer OF
Bushes, in France.

hold the presidential election next
July, by which time the ministers be-
lieve the country Will be at peace.
The Diaz partisans have been clamor-
ing Tor an election soon, while Hucrta
wants postponement until there is
a complete pacitication. Tho July
date is compromise. The elections,
If held Will be, it Is thought, a walk
over for the Diaz-De In Barra ticket.
The ministers were in session all
day discussing the Sonora-Sinaloa sit
uation. which gets moro alarming
proportions OF a civil war. It has been
decided to send fully 10000 troops
north and to recruit the army as rap
idly as possible so as to throw 10000
or 10000 men into Sonora and Sinaloa
if 1T is necessary. General Banquet
will probably be In command of the
Northern troops.
Orozco is delayed on the road, and
is expected Tomorrow. His man.
David dc la t'uente, went to the palace
In fun dress to-day TO take the oath
as Minister Of Communication, as ar
ranged. When the other ministers
gathered to witness the ceremony Il
was discovered that Dc la Fucnto had
suddenly changed his mind. aid had
left the palace, merely saying that he
would take the oath tomorrow. There
has been no explanation OF this
strange conduct, but IT is thought that
he wishes to consult Orozco before
joining the Cabinet, or that he had
received instructions from Oro2co to
delay proceeding. Another story Is
thnt Huerta won't take on De la
Fuentc until he gets OroEco's personal
and unqualified submission.
