ono Distance Laundry,

Some of the smart set Frenchmen Of
today send their linen to London to be
washed Their ancestors used to go
even further af1eld in search of good
laundry work. So far back as the six
teenth century Frenchmen had their
washing done in Holland. where the
soft water of the bikes was supposed
to impart a special gloss to linen. This
practice appears to have lasted until
the close of the eighteenth century. for
Sebastian MERCER, in his '"Tableau de
Paris" published shortly before the
French Revolution, protests against the
patronage by the rich of the Dutch, to
the exclusion of native laundresses.
Still more remarkable is the fact men
toned in the Memories du Comte de
Vaublanc," that wealthy merchants in
Bordeaux used to send their linen all
the way to San Domingo to be washed.

COLLEGE BOYS, WITH
BAND, ESCORT HIKERS
Suffrage ARMY Warmly Wei
tComad at EIkiOn, Md.

Ellzton, Nd, Feb. 21.-The day of
rest in Wilmington for the suffragette
mixers was a godsend to everybody,
and they bowled out of Wilmington
at a much cheerfuller pace than that
which they toiled in last Tuesday.
Delaware college boys gave an i'm.
pressive exhibition of southern chiy-
larry in their reception of the suffra-
gette army. The entire cadet battalion
of about 200 boys, with their rifles at
right shoulder arms, and headed by
their band, marched out about two
miles to meet the army. At a cross
roads they stacked arms and waited
for the suffrage army to appear.
Automobiles crowded with Newark
suffragettes, futtering with yellow
remnants and streamers, dashed up
and down the road, bringing back
news as to the progress of the army.
When the approach of the army was
finally announced the cadets should
cred their rifles, in readiness to escort
it. General Jones was the first to ap-
pear, and the other marchers were
close behind.
The cadets, with Lieutenant Her
man at their head. marched down the
long struggling main street of the lit
tie village, led by their band and fol-
lowed by their guests of honor, the
suffrage army, who braced up and
marched quite cheerfully in response
to the stimulus of martial music.
Arrived at the Deer Park hotel, the
cadets halted and, standing at at.
tention, made long line past which e
the suffrage army marched into the
hotel for lunch. Then in military 81.
lence, without shout or cheer, the
cadets shouldered their rifles and
marched away, their band playing
that we'll known tune which has bee-
parodied: Hail. hail, the gangs as
here"

They Give Up Dynamting For More
Lively Game of Arson.
London, Feb 21-From dynamite
the fanatical suffragettes turned to In
cendiarism. The pavilion in Kew b.
tauica Gardens was burned to the
ground, with $4,000 loss, and subse-
quently two women were arrested
nearby, carrying bags of oil-soaked
paper and saws and hammers.
The women were arrested after they
had been seen hiding in the shrub
berry on the Mid-Surrey golf links,
near the pavilion. They gave their
names as Lillian Lenton FAD Joyce
Locke, the latter being an old suffra-
gette offender.
They were arraigned in the Rich
mond police station, charged with the
destruction of property belonging to
the state. A mysterious man offered
to go their bail, but bond was refused
and the women were remanded until
next Thursday.
In the police station, when the mag
istrate refused bail for the women,
Joyce Locke screamed: "I'l go on a
hunger strike I'll die for the cause.
You can't intimidate me-"
Then before she could be stopped
she picked up book and a heavy
ink stand and hurled them at the
magistrates head. The magistrate In
an undigEified manner rolled from his
chair to a safe position behind his
desk. When the woman was being
removed she became hysterical. She
struggled like an insane person,
shrieking and struggling. 1t required
three men to overpower her.

Of race of savage men whose feet
are turned backward and of a race
known MS Monocoli. who have only
one leg. but are able to leap with sur
prising agility. The same people are
also called the Sciapodae, because they
are in the habit of lying on their

protecting themselves from the sun by
the shade Of their feet. These people

questioned before.
Mr.. Moore is the son OF Professor

EUROPE is ANXIOUS.

LONDON, July 11.-Intense anxiety
has been caused in diplomatic circles
of the European capitals by the action
of Roumania in declaring war on Bull
garia. The dispute between the two
countries dates back to the end of the
war between Turkey and the "allies"
when Bulgaria refused to give up ter
ritory demanded by Roumania as a
price of the latter's neutrality.
Roumania is believed to have nearly
half a million men under arms al
though all of these have not been con-
centrated
The powers will take concerted &C
ton, it is believed, to put an end to
Bulgarian -Roumanian hostilities before
they become general.
Car Ferdinand is anxious for peace
for the campaign against Servia and
Greece has been disastrous to the Bull
garian nation. Thousands of troops
were killed, the country lost national
prestige and the Balkan league was
broken up.
Belief existed in diplomatic quarters
that Bulgaria will not offer any armed
resistance against Roumania unless it
becomes absolutely necessary.
