 As o matter of fact tho stories that had reached Huguet were grossly ex- aggerated. The British staff officers treated Mile. Barlhou properly and between none of them and tho pretty Bretonne was there any levity of con- duct or undue familiarity. One young officer. indeed, on the staff, who had fallen much in love with her, propos- cd to her and had ceased, after her re- fusal Go marry him, to visit the inn.
 On Saturday last the husband ob- tained twenty-four hours leave from the trenches. and he unexpectedly ar rived at the inn where his wife was employed at about 5 o'clock In the afternoon. The Prince of Wales and anothed staf officer were having tea in the inn at the moment. It appears that Huguet watched his wife talk ing to the prince and his companion for some minutes and then was seized with blind rage. He rushed into the room and without O word of warn- ing fired two shots in rapid success ion. one at his wife and another at the two staff officers. Then he turned the weapon on himself.
 Hits Hlhself In Neck
 The prince and his companion then sprang upon him. but the corporal fired before he could be seized and wounded himself in the neck. The Prince of Wales was wounded in the arm just above the wrist. The cor. porai was taken to a field hospital by the Prince of Wales in his motor car. where the prince also had his wounds dressed.
 The prince then proceeded Go head quarters and reported the whole in- cident to the commander-iu.chief The corporal, under military law. Is liable to be shot. but no official notice will probably be taken of the Incident The corporal's wife almost immediately af ter the incident left the inn and went to the hospital where her husband was taken and is looking after him herself.

vOGEL's TALK OF
ALASKA BEAl

SEATTLE. Oct. LII. N Vogel. of Los Angeles. millionaire sportsman, has Just returned from o hunting trip in the Yukon valley, where he bagged five mountain sheep, three caribou, two grizzlies, and one black bear, and at the same time lost his reputation with the guide who accompanied him into the wilds Mr. Vogel explains the low esteem in which his guide holds him as merely due to his care iul disposition.
 ''You see, the guide and came up- on a big grizzly, and was lucky to drop him." said Mr. vogel last night, at tho Frye "We skinned the bear and then the guide started to get the dogs ready to pack our stuff, while skinned out ahead I was busily en. gagged in this work when the guide whistled softly, and looked up to see Q big grizzly charged out of clump of brush and start slowly past us at about forty yards distant.
 StlIl Another
 'T thought surely that this was the biggest grizzly in the world until the brush moved again and another came out close on the heels of the first He was bigger yet. and when the brush again started to move, I moved over closer to the guide. The third grazzly must have been the grand daddy of them all, for he stood as high as tbe first floor Of the Smith build ing.
 q asked the guide how many shells he had, and he told me three. had four.
 "The guide said: Let's tackle the beasts l said Go to camp. want a bigger gun and more cartridges The wind was right and they didn't smell us, SO we beat lt to camp.
 Tho guide noticed thnt ] changed from the usual method of following In his footsteps and wanted to know what the hurry was all about ! told him that I wanted to get that other gun and was tired of bear hunting anyway.
 Returned ln Force.
 However we got our reinforce ments and went back two days later and got one of tho grizzlies and a big black bear that was fooling around !
 Mr. Vogel and his brother, Fred went north on their yacht the Ituna, Fred Vogel hunting along the coast while his brother went Into the in- terior They met for the first time in several weeks last night, Fred Vo- gel coming down on the yacht Sun day, while F. N. vogel came down by steamer. According to present plans the two will intern the yacht at Seat tle this winter and thues get an early start next spring to the hunting grounds.-(seattle p. ID
