SOLDIERS LOST TO AUSTRIA
Indignant Females Put Spokes In
Plans OF ReserVHsts Who Would
Flight for Native Land.

Master Cupid shot his arrow into
the lines Of the homeward-bound
Austrians in New York city and
John Rzesnik and Ronald Ulosin-
sky will be temporarily deprived of
the delight Of aiding their country.
Both Rzesnik and Ulosinsky were
recently named as defendants in
breach Of promise suits in which
Miss Catherine Kobrynowicz of 64S
East Eleventh street, demanded S10,-
600 damages from Rzesnik, and Miss
Veronika Makowska asked $4,000
Of Ulosinsky. The young women,
hearing their erstwhile admirers were
about to sail for Austria to join the
army, obtained orders Of arrest.
"You shall not go to war until you
have married me-" Miss Kobrynowicz
told Rzesnik after he had been ar
rested.
"I'd rather 60 to war and get shot
than marry YOU" retorted Rzesnik.
Miss Makowska was also at the
sheriff's Office when Ulosinsky was
brought in, and Ulosinsky told her
if she would let him go to war he
would marry her when he returned.
"No, sir" shouted the young wom-
an. 'If you won't marry me now,
I'll let you go to jail and stay there"
Neither man could furnish the re-
quired $500 bail and they were
locked up in Ludlow street Jail.

TRADE IN NEW GUINEA.

There is no country in West AT.
rica which is more accessible and
whose government, perhaps, is more
benevolently inclined toward British
enterprise than is the government Of
Portuguese Guinea. Such is the
opinion expressed by his majesty's
consul general at Dakar.
Its area is $4,000 square miles,
and, for its size, he states, the col
ony is probably the richest in west
Africa. None Of the foreign firms
in the colony seem to be able to com.
pete with foreign cotton goods, con.
siderable quantity of which are an.
nually exported from Manchester,
These goods are popular among the
natives and are becoming more so.

TAKE INTEREST IN SKELETON
Remains Found In England, Remark
able for Large Size Of Head, Have
Aroused Scientists.

Professor Keith Of the British
Royal College Of Surgeons has been
investigating the history Of skele-
ton dating from about 1000 B. c.,
which was recently found during eI-
cavations by J. Reid Moir at the base
of the Red Crag at Thorington hall,
WherStead, near Ipswich. 1t is the
skeleton OF twelve-year-old boy. His
stature must have been much the
same as the average height Of a mod
ern boy of the same age, but the large
size of the head is remarkable. Close
to the skeleton was good vessel for
the use Of the boy on his arrival in
the nett world. The vessel is of a
type which was only made in the late
neolithic and early bronze periods.
1t Is decorated all round with marks
pieced by thumb nails, method Of
decoration which is very ancient.
Professor Keith said:
ave are trying to get hold of the
people Of every period, going as far
back as we can. We are trying to
follow the English people right
back, beginning with the Roman
period. We shall then be able to de-
scribe the people who lived in any
period and the changes that came
over them. So far there has beer
very little change"
