VIENNA. September "a. 1913.
A distressing fatality occurred few
days ago at Klausenburg. when a young
neiress was drowned while taking part in
an exciting episode for the cinemato-
graph. The film was a version of q
Hungarian popular comedy called "Sar-
go Esiks." and the play included scene
where boatload OF women was sup
posed to be capsized. The operator want
ed to take actors dressed in women's
clothes in this scene. but the actresses
insisted on playing the roles themselves.
The boat. with four actresses from the
National Theater. started out on the
river in the middle OF the town. when
they were caught in a whirlpool and up
set. The crowd on the river banks. think
ing that all this was part of the play,
cheered. The operator was the first to
perceive the danger to the boat. Three
OF the women were rescued, but eighteen
year-old Elizabeth Imre was swept down
the stream and taken out lifeless. She
was an excellent swimmer, but In the ex-
element lost her head.
The films have been conflscated and
the director of the theater has been ar
rested Popular indignation against him
Is very great, because he insisted that ali
members of his theatrical company must
be ready to take part In cinema prodtio-

RUSSIAN "SUFFRAGETTES"

ODESSA, September Is, 1918.
The Russians have adopted many &c.
neric terms from the English, more no.
tably those of "hooligan" and 'hooligan-
Ism" (khuligan and khuliganstvo). HooIi-
gan is replacing the term ''expropfiator. %
and ''hooliganisn' includes robbery under
arms. Iatterly the Russian press has
shown a prediction for the term "suf.
fragettes." but SO called. In this country,
the term is indiscriminately applied TO
any feminine demonstration.
For example, under the heading "Suf-
fragettes at Tifis," a telegram relates
that certain wealthy house proprietor
in the Georgian capital, on the day fol-
lowing his wife's departure for a month s
holiday In the Crimea, invited a neighbor
woman to his house. This scandal exas.
perated the T1fiis ''suffragettes," who, to
the number OF over 100. storfned the resi-.
dence OF the faithless husband with the
openly avowed intention of lynching him
and his fair guest. The windows were
shattered and vigorous attempt was be.
ing made to force the doors when the poA
lice arrived.

Of the "suffragettes were arrested, and

A sensational story OF native con-

which are well known to South African
Judges and police authorities, has been
unfolded in the course Of a murder trial
here. Five native convicts were indicted
for the murder Of q fellow convict,
named Jacob Mkaba, at Dutoitspan

Jacob had decided to withdraw from the
"Ninevite Society,"" abdicating the chief
tainship. and had persuaded others to
withdraw also. For this and for the
fact that he was supposed to have car.
ried tales to the station superintendent
he was sentenced to death. He resisted
endeavors to get him into q certain cell.
but eventually went, and was set upon
and stabbed to death.
One Of the assused was the society's
doctor, another a Judge" q third suo-

PARIS, September 25. 1913.
The unusual spectacle Of an abandon

Ave fully grown lions was seen in the
streets Of Paris the other day.
The animals belonged to woman lion
tanner, who had brought them to Paris
to take part In q circus. At the last
moment the contract fell through, and
the woman. an italian. found herself
without resources, alone In a strange
city with her inconvenient animal COM
panions.
The police first took the lions to the
Zoo. which was closed, and finally to a
dogs home, where they are row In
stalled. Their appearance gave rise to
tumultuous and hostile demonstration
on the part Of the other inmates of the
dogs home. The lions themselves ap-.
peared to feel their position acutely, and
spent the whole day whimpering in the
corners Of their cage.

EUGENIC LAW RULING MADE
Attorney General Says That Private
Physicians Cannot Be Compelled
to Make Required Tests.

Madison. Gen. Owen gives an
opinion that physicians in private
practice cannot be compelled to make
the medical examinations of prospec.
tive husbands required and issue the
certificates. He believes, however,
that county physicians can be COM
PEELED to make the tests. If all this
work should be placed on county ply
sicians regular laboratory departments
would have to be maintained in each
county, and in such a county as Mil
waukee the expense of such de-
partment would mean a cost to the
county of from $4,000 to 100000 a
year. The establishment of labora-
tories in the smaller counties of the
state will also mean mol small ex-
pense.
DR.. c. A. Harper says that the best
known laboratory test is required, and
that only small percentage of Wis
consin physicians are really equipped
either in laboratory experience or with
apparatus to make the test.
