LONDON sUFFRAGETTEs ROUTED
Over 10000 Greeted Them With Eggs,
Oranges and Mud.

London.-The ~suffragettes who
again attempted to hold a Sunday af-
ternoon meeting in Hyde park March
16 were mobbed by a crowd of 10000
persons. They were pelted with clods,
oranges and other missiles, and when
the police were escorting them from
the scene the rioters tore off the hats
and cloaks of the women and even
struck some of them in the face.
The trouble began when General"
Mrs. Flora Drummond mounted a wag-
assemblage, which was largely made
up of youths, who had armed them
selves with ammunition of various de-
scriptions or with trumpets, mouth Or
gans and with bells. Her appearance
at the front of the platform was the
signal for an outburst of deafening
noise and a bombardment of missiles.
She had hardly uttered a word when
a clod of turf struck her on the mouth.
Mrs. Drummond maintained her
good nature, smiled at her tormentors
and continued her speech amid a ver-
liable tornado of abuse, catcalls, rag
time choruses and cries of go home
to your children"
For half an hour the crowds shouted,
sang and pelted the suffragette COM
mander-in-chief, whose clothes soon
were a mass of mud. At last Mrs.
Drummond's speech, of which not a
word was audible, came to an end and
a younger woman took her place. She
Jared no better, and the police, realiz-
ing the danger the women were in,
called upon the chairman to close the
meeting.
A large force of police, mounted and
afoot, drew in about the ~suffragette
wagon, and under this escort the wo-
men were led out of the park, followed
by a jeering crowd, which continued
to pelt them with missiles over the
heads and through the lines of consta-
bles. @

steers a year, when he could just as
easily feed a dozen or so and make as
much money as in any other way Of
disposing Of the crops he raises. One
of the best posted livestock growers
in the west recently said: 1.-The pro-
duction Of livestock is going to grow
instead of going back, as the last few
years have shown, because the farmer
and the small ranchmen finally have
realized the profit there is in raising
livestock-especially. as contrasted
against truck farming. The generous
prices paid for stock in the open mar
ket, combined with the work of the
agricultural colleges toward this end,
have helped convince the farmer he
would better change his tactics and
reap profit in the field of raising more
livestock"

People who meet Champ Clark for
the first time are under the impress
sion that he is without knack for re-
membering names and faces. On the
contrary, as his homefolks know, he is
particularly adept in this difficult art.
Billy Mayhall, who runs the Bowling
Green Times, in Pike county, Mis-
souri,, found out about it many years
ago Clark was practicing law. He
had his Office I've a drug store in the
town and he slept in the rear room.
His daily walk took him in front of
the Bowling Green Times Office. Day
after day Clark passed, and day after
day Mayhall stood in the doorway
while the young lawyer ambled by.
Nobody spoke.
When Clark began to run for office
Mayhall told some friends he couldn't
be for him because Clark lived in the
same town and didn't know him,
About the same time Clark went into
Mayhall's Office and, going up to the
case where the editor was sticking

Say, Billy, I'm afraid you've got
something against me. I've been pass
ing your Office for a year now, and
you've never spoken to me.

MARTIN SIMONS G. SONS OF NEW
YORK, PAWNBRoKERs, THE
LOSERS.
ROBBERS TUNNFLED UNDER VAULTS
They Made Clean Getaway With Val.
liable Loot-Wore Gloves to Avoid
Finger Prints-Left $4,000
in Securities.

New York.-An east side burglary
perpetrated by clever cracksmen Sun
day netted the thieves the largest haul
obtained in New York city in many
years. Martin Simons & Sons, pawn
brokers, in Hester street, were the vic
Tins, and the property stolen includes
$250,000 worth of jewelry, diamonds
and other precious stones and $4,000
worth of negotiable securities.
The thieves gained access to the
pawnbrokers' richly stored vaults by
means of a tunnel from an abutting
building on a neighboring street. They
made a clean getaway with their valu-
able loot. .
The vault, which stands IL feet high
and is built into the wall, was entered
by %chopping away the masonry.
Later $4O.0 900 of the negotiable secur-
tiles were found scattered on the floor
Of the vault, but about $4,000 were
missing, the robbers evidently having
been afraid to take certain of the secu-
rites. ...J ..r
Apparently Wore Gloves.
Another thing that seemed to point
to the up-to-date business acumen of
the looters was that they left behind
them in the litter about the vault three
pairs of gloves. The police are of the
opinion that the cracksmen wore
gloves in robbing the vault, realizing
the extent to which the finger print

able of going in detecting law-breakers
who leave Impressions of their fingers
at the scenes of their crimes.
The burglars we're well prepared for
their task. In the ~pawnship they left
all the paraphernalia they had used in
preaching the wall, cutting through
the floor and hammering their way
through the brick and masonry of the
vault. These instruments were three
large saws, one small saw, one II
pound sledge hammer, n t~hree-pounG
hammer, and a brace and bit.
When Simons and his son reached
the pawnshop and made a hasty in
ventory they declared that the loo
taken easily was worth $250,000, an(
that probably it's value would exceed
this figure.
