WILL NOT EXPELL
MISS PANKHURST

Behaves Herself and That
Suits England.

PARIS, June 23.-No action will be
taken by the French government to-
ward exrelling Miss Christabel Pank-
hurst, the English militant suffragist,
now claiming asylum in France. 1t
was generally admitted that tho Brit
ish authorities in secret noto de-
livered to the French government to-
day signifled their desire that this
step be taken.
The attitude of the government
here is that Miss Pankhurst is a po-
|litical prisoner, and likewise WON
an, and that to demand that she leave
France would be contrary to The gen
leral custom Of nations. 1t is likewise
said that were France to expel Miss
Pankhurst, such hue end cry would
be raised all over the country that
those responsible would never hear
tho last of it. French feminists de-
clare they would Immediately take
her part since the English suffragettes
are indirectly fighting the battles OF
their French sisters.

largely responsible for both the small
birth rate and the high death rate, a
double evil which statisticians say
will wipe France off the map unless
stopped. In 1910 --latest available
igures) $3.50 newborn babies died
in France, mostly because of alcoholic
fathers and absinthe using parents.
French women say II women had the
vote the sale of alcohol and absinthe
would be better controlled and there
would be more births and less deaths.
Miss Pankhurst is therefore regarded
| in France as a sort of symbol, rep
resenting new ideas and new life,

Weeks to Assist In Building

COPENHAGEN, June 23.-An ex-
traordinary wave Of patriotism is
sweeping over Denmark. Following
the example OF the Swedes who last
year raised 100000 by popular sub
scription for the purpose of assisting
the government in building dread
nougft, the Danes are contributing to
fund for general defense. In the
past six weeks, according to announce
ment made today, the subscriptions
have totaled 100000.
Local committees have been estab-
country, and also among Danes living
in the United States, England and OH
err countries, and contributions are
pouring In daily from persons Of all
classes at the general headquarters
here The professors and students of
Copenhagen University subscribed a
large amount, and collections have
been made In many OF the public
schools. Big sums have come in from
the wealthy landowners, and CONNER
cial firms are vieing with one an
other in the patriotic competition.
Nearly every artist in Denmark has
contributed picture or piece of sculp-
ture to an art lottery, the proceeds of
which will go to the fund, and numer-
GUS fairs and other public entertain
ments are being held.
The immediate occasion for this out
burst was the revelation in the Danish

and over naval and military stations.
The young prince received the CON
CALCULATIONS OF members of the royal
family at Windsor Castle where he
is taking few days rest from his
studies at Oxford. There was lunch
con party at the castle at noon and
there will be a big banquet there to-
night.
Born In 1894, two years after the
death of his fathers older brother,
young Edward has big advantage
over King George, in that he has al
ways been educated for the throne.
King George only came into line
after the death OF the Duke OF Clar-
ence, UP to which time he had not
been much in the public eye. The
prince Is rather shy young man
without any particularly striking
characteristics. He is popular with
those with whom he has come in con-
tact, but he has been very strictly
brought up and has never had much
boyish fun. At Oxford he is nick
named Pragger-Wagger." Prince AL
bert, his brother, now cruising the
West Indies as a midshipman sent
Prince Edward safety razor. Not
that Edward needs a facial lawn
mower for he hasn't begun to shave.
It was Just Albert's little Joke on his
king-to-be brother because Albert,
who is only eighteen, has beaten Ed
ward to the need of razor.

Watch Stopped at 1o:45.

Some significance is attached to
the fact that the gold watch found on
the body of Miss Maymie Wilson,
stopped at quarter to eleven o'clock.
It is supposed that the accident and
drowning occurred short time be-
fore that hour on Thursday night
The time piece which had partly
turned black was taken to a local
1ewelry establishment and soaked in
oil
The belief that the engine in the
launch may have exploded and caus-
ed the accident has become stronger
since evidence of burns were found
on the bodies of one or two of the
victims. One of Miss Wilson's arms
II is believed, was burned and John
Laughlin's body showed traces OF
burns, members of the seaching par
ties say.

DOUBLE FUNERAL HELD
Services Held In ST. Peters chuch for
Miss Wilson and Mrs. Wright
-LaughIIn Body to
Wisconsin.

All five members of the launch
party, drowned in the lake on Thurs
day night, last, have been found, the
bodies of Mrs. Pauline Marks and Al
fred 3. Gross, being picked up Sun
day morning after 10 O'Clock by
searchers in boats. Frank Belt, form.
er manager OF the Keokuk baseball
club, was the one who found the
corpse Of young Gross, floating about
a hundred yards from shore among
some bushes. south of where the .ec-
ond lock formerly stood The body
was held fast by the vegetation.
DR.. F. L. Devices and Arthur
Schmidt saw the body OF Gross float
ing along the shore about two hundred
Yards above the place where the
hcdy of Mrs. Marks was seen first.
Schmidt and Devices saw the Gross
body in the water short time before
It was picked up by the others but
decided to pick up the woman first
The remains of both were taken to
the morgue where they were identified
/ by relatives and friends.
1t is considered fortunate that all
& Of the bodies have now been recov-
cred as relatives of the dead young
people were extremely anxious that
proper burials should be given each.
With the finding of the last Of the
party, the final chapter In one of the
most tragic occurrences the city has
known in several years comes to
close. The incident has already had
Its effect in warning others that it is
Improper to overload email boat and
to venture on the treacherous lake
un2repared for emergencies. Many
LEGAL boat owners have announced
their Intentions of building larger and
safer boats before going on the lake.
The present body of water, river
men claim, is altogether different
than the old river was before the
building OF the dam.
The five bottles were all In bad
condition when taken from the water,
which fact is considered unusual since
none of them were in more than two
days. The flesh had already turned
black when seerchers found one or
another of the luckless outing party
and the caskets In which they were
laid had to be sealed.
