Of his wonderful achievements as an air

It does not seem long since he sought a
seat in the chamber OF deputies. and we
can remember the day when he was
thought to be dying as the result Of a very
nasty fall. Never does he miss a chance OF
getting full publicity in the newspapers.

camel IN the Egyptian desert, and beat

this by boxing the ears Of a fellow airman.

DARIS, France, April 4.-Despite the

This convent is conducted as a re-

It was the intention Of the gang
evidently to abduct these three girls.
Armed with revOlvers the apaches as

T ONDOE, Eng, April A few
days ago an influential daily
newspaper made the assertion
that the operations of the cat and
Mouse" act had been so successful that
there remained only seven wild wOm-
en- in England. Whether this aroused
the militant suffragists to a sense
of their responsibilities" is not clear,
but they have been even more active
Of late than ever before.
All the old acts Of militancy have
been repeated and new forms Of Grim
inal action have been put into opera
ton. During the last few days two
old world mansions have been burned
to the ground and railway rolling
stock has come under the mercIleSS
sway Of the militant women. Churches
have been desecrated and in one fine
old Midland cathedral the words More
to follow were painted on the walls
Of the sacred edifice.
Prison Doctors Thrashed Regularly.
Prison doctors have come to regard
thrashing. with dog whip as part
Of their daily round once they leave
the PRECINCTS Of the prison. The old
method Of destroying letters by put
ting PHOSPHORUS in pillar boxes is be-
ing exploited daily and of late this
has been supplemented by the inser-
ton of small lead pellets in the locks
so that the services Of expert lock
smiths are necessary every day. So
persistent has this form OF outrage
become that the post office authori-
ties have a lOcksmith on duty at all
the district offices ready to answer the
telephone call Of the baffled pOstmen.
Famous Pictures Hidden Out.
As the outcome Of the mutilation Of
the ROkeby Venus picture in the Ma
ttonal Art gallery, many Of LOndOn's
leading shOWplaces are still closed to
the public. The famous pictures by
G. F. Watts and Holman Hunt, which
formerly adorned the walls of St
Pauls cathedral still remain in the OBJ
security and safety of the crypt. Visi-
tors from America, arriving now in
very increasing numbers, are greatly
incensed at the embargo placed upon
their sightseeing itinerary.

n ERLIN. Germany. April 1.-THE
kaiser has often been referred to
- as the greatest self advertising

there is every indication that, politi-
caIly and commercially, Germany is
living up to the standard set by its IL
lusTiOus monarch. Political jugglery
has been brought to a fine art. AL
ready overburdened with taxes, the
poor German citizen gets scant con-

aroused by a vigorous press campaign,

Increased Taxes Yield Millions.
There have been the usual semi Of
fetal denials of increases, but it seems
to be a fact that an additional $125,-
600 900 will have to be raised to meet
the added expenditure. The taxation
to cover the increase sanctioned last
year is yielding much more than was
expected, and it is believed that this
surplus viii amount to something like
the figure mentioned, and will be de-
voted to rearming the artillery and in
