Special Gable to The American.
LONDON, Nov. 15.-The Duchess
of Rutland has informed the Lord
Chamberlains Office that she is will
ing to accept the post of censor OF
plays if it is offered to her. Friends
declare that the Duchess would make
an excellent censor.
There Is no reason why the posi-
ton should not be filed by a woman.
She knows more about art and the
theater than many dramatic critics
and rarely misses a first night. Her
bosom friend is Lady Tree, wife of
the actor manager, and she really led
the way to society for number of
actors and their wives.
Unfortunately, the Duchess is by
no means popular in court circles.

Militants' War Chest
Filled From Spite
Wives Of Aegrieved Politicians Give
Money to Harass the British
Government.
Special Gable to The American.

LONDON, Nov. 15.-Centrary to
the geeral impression, there is no ap-
probable decline in the funds of the
Woman's Political and Social Union
Mrs. Pankhursts militant organ
ization. Contributions still flow into
the war chest at the rate of between
$1,000 and $500 per week.
The contributors in question are a
Liberal peeress and the wives of at
least four men who once played big
parts in politics on the Radical side.
1t is frankly realized by the mill
tants that the lavish contributions
have their origin in a desire to make
trouble for the Government.
