DUKE OF wEsrN1INsTER.

Hugh Richard Arthur Grosvenor, second Duke of Westminster, who was one of the first of the English dukes to go to the front, was born thirty-six years ago today. March l g, 1879. As aid de camp to Sir John French the young duke has won honorable mention, both for ability as an officer and for bravery under fire. In the early days of the war he distinguished himself by rushing through the battle zone, amid a gall ing fire, to rescue Capt Grenfell, who had been wounded. A little later he was reported ito have had a, narrow escape when the motor car in which he was riding was attacked by a pa- trol of Uh1ans. The duke escaped in a hail of bullets, but his companion was struck by bullet and killed. His uncle, Capt. Lord Hugh William Grosvenor, and the 1atterss brother in-1aw, Viscount Crichton, were re- ported among the missing in Novenn- Der, and were said to have been taken Duke of Westminster is the richest peer in the United Kingdom. and his estate includes some of the most valuable portions of London. Besides 500 acres in the metropolis, he owns about 80.000 acres in Cheshire and Fhnts4rire. He succeeded his grand father, the first duke, in 1899, and soon afterward went to South Africa, where he served as aid de camp to Viscount Mflner and Lord Roberts in the Boer war. After the conclusion of that struggle he bought a vast es- tate in the Orange River Colony He married Constance Edwina, daugh- ter Of Col. Cornwa1lis West, in 1901 but the match was not a happy one. and the separation of the couple at tracted much attention.

GRAND ADMIRAL voN TIRPTTz OF GERMAN
 NAVY IS ee TODAY.

'
 Grand Admiral Alfred won Tirpitz, the creator of the Kaiser's fleet and the Imperial secretary for the Ger man navy, was born sixty-six years ago today, March 1e, 1S49- The giant forked-bearded Teu1on has been so long at the helm of naval affairs in Germany that he has come to. be called teMrpttz the Eternal. The great submarine fleet of his country was built at his earnest sohc1tad ons and 1t was von Tirpitz who originated the plan of a submarine blockade Of Great Britain which WAS put into ef- feet a. month ago. Won T1rpitz en- tered the navy when Tn his teens, ana ana climbed up step by step until at the age of forty he was chief of stam to the commander of the Baltic naval station He was made secretary for the imperial navy in 1897 and the following year he became minister, reaching the rank of grand admiral in 1908. For about sixteen years he has been at the head of the German naval forces. No other minister or tho empire, with the sole exception of Bismarck, ever survived so long. During his reign ministers, foreign secretaries and other. cabinet onciais have come and gone, but T4rpitz has remained at his post undisturbed by the vicissitudes of politics. He has long been a favorite of the Kaiser, and at one time he was prominently mentioned for the post of chancellor of the empire.
 von Tirpitz's naval career has traversed the whole history of mod ern fighting ships. When he entered the navy the sail was not yet obso-, lete, and the era of steam had only fairly commenced. The German navy was composed entirely of wooden vessels, and the utility OF 1ronclads was Just being demonstrated in American waters. The modern Ger man navy of super r-dreadnoughts and submarines Is largely his creation. For years. before the present war he constantly preached the necessity of a German navy at least two-thirds as powerful in offensive units as that of Great Britain. In his naval plans the grand admiral paid much attention to guns, as he believed that an in vincfbIe superiority in armament would decide fife issue in Germany's. favor From first to last Admiral von Tirpitz bitterly opposed any agreem ents with other powers which, would limit the development of his. beloved navy. Personally the grand admiral is a stalwart giant of a man, and, dressed for the part, he might pass for a Viking. In conversation he is suave and polite and frank, and has never heetta,ted to air his views.

This statement was made in Connection with the introd11c- ton of the defense of India Dill in the governor-generaIs council.
 Continuing, Sir Reginald alluded to the "campaign engineered on the Pa cific coast of America whence some deIuded men had returned during the past few months with their minds poisoned and had committed acts of violence in BengaLP
 seditious activity was breaking out afresh, the speaker declared. but the footing in the western punjab was largely due to economic and racial conflicts between Hindus and Mo- hammedans. The danger. he ssa1d was only serious if not checked promptly.
 Previous indications of unrest in India have not been lacking. De- spatches from Constantfnoplel in De- cember said the proclamation of the Mohammedan holy war was begin ging to show it's effect in India Revo- 1utionaIsy procIannatioIls were bedng circulated among native troops and in Bombay there had been fatal riot ing. Last year a group of Hindu inn migrants were refused permission to land in Canada. Upon landing at Calcutta they indulged in rioting and Is of them were killed.
 In the middle of last February the 5th light infantry of Benga1ese revolt ed at Singapore on it's way to Egypt. Four hundred of the rebels were killed before order was restored.
