London, June 1O.-Mrs. Emmaline
Pankhurst, militant suffragette lead
er, again last night evaded the police
who were closely watching the house
In Grosvenor square from which she
had been recently conducting the cam
paign against the peace of members
Of the royal family at Buckingham
palace and other places. Her plan
of escape is said by the police to nave
been "cleverly conceived" although
the details were not made public. The
ingenuity Of the women and their
ability to circumvent the trained
brains Of Scotland yard whenever CIR
curnstances demand real contest OF
wits, are causing anxiety at police
headquarters
The raid on the offices Of the Wom-
ems Social and Political union, like the
previous ore early in May, did not
produce the results expected by the
police, who Today plainly showed their
disappointment. The documents seized
revealed very few names OF public IN
terest.
Chief Inspector James McBrien said
today the published report of the dis
of the royal family, including the
Prince of Wales, had contributed to
the funds OF the militant suffragettes
was absolutely groundless.
Government Urged to Act.
A resolution strongly condemning
militancy and demanding urgent ac-
ton by the government to stop the
reign of anarchy was adopted today
by a large majority of the conference
of the Women's Liberal federation now
in session in London.
Lady Carlisle. the president. in NOV
ing the resolution. spoke of the ter
rible scourge of violent methods which
came right across their own constitu-
tionalist methods and hindered the
woman suffrage movement. She
added: "1he disastrous example of
unchecked violence of these criminal
wreckers is injuring the moral fibre
Of a considerable number of men and
women in this country"
Lady Carlisle denounced as "spuri-
Gus sentimentality and travesty Of
chivalry" the theory that women
should not be made to suffer the same
penalties melted out to men under the
law. Her remark was received with
loud cheering.

Colonel Hampton's study was dark

dull brightness of portraits. An an

his wig and gown, gave the small
room importance. A broad window
looked through bare branches, lacy

country and groups of woodland.
On the morning of the first day of
April, 1897, Prince Louis Napoleon
Bonaparte stood at this window, star

With quick step forward he threw
himself on his knees before the quiet
figure In the throne-like chair; he seiz-
ed the princes hand and, head bent,
kissed it with passion. There was a
line of color in each cheek as his face
lifted, and his brilliant look was shot
with a tear.

Prince Louis had his mothers warm
heart, and this went to it. He put his
hand on the others shoulder, famil-
iarly as if the two were equals, kins-
men.
The brotherly touch on Francois
shoulder was withdrawn, and with gen.
tie dignity, with a glance, the prince
lifted him to his feet, and Francois
stood happy, dazed, before him. He
found himself telling his plans, his
methods, his efforts to fit himself for
the usefulness that might be ON the
way.

When Harry's horse bolted, one touch
put Aquarelle into motion. Like a
line of brown light she dashed at right
angles to the runaway line drawn
to intercept the line of Black Hawks
flight. There WAS silence over the
field-one second-two seconds-the
lines shot to the angle-then it came
the shock they awaited.
Black Hawk, rushing, saw the other
coming and swerved at the last mo-
ment-too late. The animals colllded,
not with full force, yet for moment
it looked like nothing but death for
riders and mounts. Harry Hampton
was thrown backward to the level
field; Black Hawk galloped off. frantic
and unhurt, across it; Aquarelle, one
saw, lay on the very edge of the drop
and was scrambling to her feet with
liveliness enough to assure her safe
ty: Of Francois there was no sign. In
half minute the breathless still
crowd was in an uproar, and hun
dred men were jostling one another
to reach the scene of the accident.
1t was two minutes, perhaps, before
Caperton Bayly, with negro boy at
his heels, with Jack Littleton and
Harry Wise and a dozen other lads
racing back of him, had plunged over
the drop of land where Francois had
disappeared, Two minutes are enough
sometimes for large event In that
two minutes Lucy Hampton, without
conscious yolition, by an instinct as
simple and imperative as birds in
stinct to shield her young, had slipped
from her horse Bluebird and flown
across tbe level and down over the
steep bank till she found herself hold
ing Francois dark head in her arms
and heard her own voice saying words
she had never said even to herself.
Il love you, l love you," she said,
and If all the world heard she did not
know or care. There was no world
for her at that minute but the man
lying with his head against her heart
dead it might be, but dead or alive.
dearest. Il love you-love you-love
rushing out of her in the words.
With that the luminous great eyes
opened, and Francois was looking at
her, and she knew that he had heard.
And then the training of lifetime, of
centuries, flooded back into her, and
womanly reticence and maidenly
shame and the feelings and attitude
which are not primeval, as she had
been primeval for that one mad mo-
ment. She drew back as she felt him
trying to lift himself, and left him free
and was on her feet, and then with
shock she was aware of another pres
ence; turning she looked up into the
angry glow of her cousins eyes. He
was not looking at her, but at the man
who, dazed, hurt, was trying painfully
to pull himself up Harry Hampton

"Shame!" she cried. "He has just

And Francois, clutching at bush,
things reeling about him unsteadily,
| looked up, friendly, wistful, at the boy
cursing him.
With that there was an influx Of
population; the whole world, appar-
emily, tumbled down the steep bank.
