WOMEN DO HERvY STUNT


London, April 1S.-Two enterprising
suffragettes this morning took possess
sion of the monument which stands
near the northern approach to London
bridge and commentaries the great
fire which destroyed the city Of Lon
don in 1866. Ascending to the topnost
balcony they displayed two flags and
an immense banner in the suffragists'
colors. on each of which was written
in white letters on a black background.
Victory or DEATH"
Having fastened the flags securely,
the women padlocked themselves in
side the power house and prevented
the police from ascending the winding
staircase Of 345 steps leading the top.
They took up their position on a
balcony and showered literature among
the crowds which gathered below. For
q long time traffic was suspended in
one Of the busiest positions in London.
The women maintained their posi-
ton for more than an hour. While
they were holding the fort" a heavy
missile thrown from the top Of the
monument narrowly missed injuring
several spectators.
The police eventually had to requisi-
ton the services of a locksmith who
forced the door. When the police ap-
peared in the street escorting the
women who had defied them so long,
spectators became so threatening In
their attitude that the constables were
compelled to take their prisoners back
into the monument until reinforce
ments arrived.
A force of more than 100 policemen
were required to protect the women
from the angry crowd.
Both of the women We're stylishly
dressed and appeared little concerned
by the excitement. They were released
a short time after reaching the sta
ton.

answer to charge of vagrancy. In
reply to the questions of the court he

he had been up in the Maine woods at
work, and was on his way home to
Boston. He had, Thursday, he alleged,
walked from Watervillc to Augusta,
and as a consequence his feet We're
very sore. The court was compassion
ate, and out of consideration of the
mans condition awarded him a sem
tence of 30 days in Jail, in order that
his feet might in that time sufficiently
recover to allow him to resume his
Journey toward the old Common
wealth. Others matters before the
court were two cases of intoxication,
in both of which sentence was suspen-
ded.
