Man Enters Palace
A sensational incident OF the Jay
was the discovery Of a young man
who gave his name as Harry IKE, ia
buckingham Palace, where the royai
family spent Sunday. In the carry
hours of the morning, Pike entered the
palace. as he explained afterWard, 70
prove that entrance could be easily
effected. He scaled the wall and wan
dered through the corridors for some
time once he was near the Queens
anertmnts. He was finally discovered,
however, and overpowered IN the ser
wants, quarters. He will be arraigned
tomorrow in the Bow street ponce
court on a charge of having oeen
found on enclosed premises for uniaW-
f,,I purposes. This is the only offense
proyable against him, so far as the
evidence shows.
There is nothing to show that PIKE
is connected with the woman suffrage
movement. He gave his occupation as
an engineer
Pike was ignorant OF the interior or
the palace and had several adVen-
lures while wandering about inside
Notwithstanding the heavy guard or
soldiers and police who are supposed
to patrol the grounds closely, PIKE
managed to scale the palace wall ana
climb into a basement window on the
north side of the building in which
Queen Mary has her apartment. He
entered several of the vacant rooms
and in one changed his clothing, whlch
was torn and soiled through scaling
the wall and crawling along the drive
way to reach the palace building. The
suit he exchanged for his own be-
longed to one of the servants.
Awakens Servant
The discovery of Pike resulted when
he opened the door of room where
a servant was sleeping and said TO
the servant, who had been awakened
by his entry: Excuse me, was look
ing for No. 90 The servant suspected
the man was a burglar and aroused
other servants, who crowded him into
a corner and held him there until the
police came and took him away.
The exploit of Pike caused great
alarm and also brought forth a deal
of criticism of the system of guard
ing the palace and the lack of pre-
cautions which permitted a stranger
who might have been an assassin to
wander for more than an hour through
q royal residence.

Father Bernard Vaughan had just
taken his place in the pulpit in West

the opinion of many who are In close

Disorder Follows
A scene of great disorder followed. A
sufsragette arose and started a prayer.
but she had scarcely uttered a word
when a woman worshipper clapped her
hand over the mouth of the suffragette.
Struggling fiercely and shouting loudly,
the suefragettes were forced by ushers
and worshippers down the aisles and
then into the street. Many of the men,
bers Of the congregation followed the
evicted suffragettes to the sidewalk,
where a well dressed woman hit a mill
tant sister III the face, which bled pro-
fusely, The crowd cleered the woman
who struck the blow. Only two of the
suffragettes who caused the disorder
were arrested. They also refused to give
their names.
Public Shows Hostility
The growing hostility on the part of
the public toward the militant suffra-
gettes was shown by assaults today on
several open air meetings. Speakers
were mobbed, stands were torn down and
the women were saved by the police
from duckings or beatings. A crowd at
Hampstead Heath knocked over the plat
form from which party of militants
were to speak and scattered the suffra-
gettes in all directions. They tried to
drag two OF the women TO a pond for a
dueking, but the police saved them.
Mud fer Speakers
A similar scene occurred on Chaplain
common. While a militant advocated
the use of bombs the speaker and those
on the stand with her were pelted with
mud. The police helped the women TO
escape on motor bus. A meeting In
Hyde Park ended in the same manner.

Fed the Brute.

Sir Charles Tupper in his book,
"Recollections of Sixty Years." recalls
an experience of his daughter in Can
ada during the Riel rebellion in the
northwest. She was in the region of
trouble, and on day when she hap
pened to be alone in her home ''tn
walked strapping Indian, all war
paint and feathers She thought the
best thing she could do was to feed
him. She cooked everything in the
house-potatoes meat and bread
When all was consumed-and these
Indians will eat at a meal enough to
lost for three weeks-he had grown to
a very large size. AS he could not
speak word of English or French, he
evinced his gratitude by patting his
protuberant stomach, with a cultural
'Ha, ha, ha," and left.
