NOTES OF INTEREST
ON BALFOUR PARTY

A tall, ramrod d-straight man with
a close cropped mustsche and a walk
that somehow made one think OF the
trenches, strode to the desk In the
Shoreham Hotel yesterday.
"Where is my room?' he asked,
and his distinctly English voice was
perfectly modulated, but expressive
OF a shade OF worry.
What name, please?" the clerk
requested.
"Brust-rm with the mission, you
know he answered.
The clerk scanned the slip on which
the mission was registered, ana then
looked up apologetically.
Sorry, SIR" he said, but no ar
rangements have been made for YOU.
But well see: Won't you just wait
moment, please?"
And thus became known one OF the
secrets of the mission, and the story
OF the one hitch in otherwise per-
feet arrangements.
For Mr.. Brust-Hald Brust Is his
name-when at home in his native
London is Sergeant Brust OF Scot
land Yard.
1t was his belief that he was to
stay at the Shoreham, as a secret
guard for the party there-but
through some inadvertance, no reser-
walton had been made for him.
While Sergeant Brust was waiting.
another Englishman entered the hotel

detectives and secret service men in

honor which had been conferred
upon him, stood beside the door OF
the Long residence late into the
night. Occasionally he turned his
head. and then the fascinated spec

not an automaton. Long after all the
American officials left the Long resi-
dence, the crowd stayed. partly in the
hope that Mr.. Balfour would come

NO CHEER FROM EMBASSY.

There is at least one house in
Washington passed by Mr.. Balfour
and his party yesterday from which
no cheers and applause could be
heard. whirling along amid the
tumult, there was q dramatic mo-

C., on duty there, radical changes in the present system of using National Guardsmen may follow. General Edwards let it be known that the system in vogue lis he'll "Men can't stand this very long, he said Why can't a man, with a good club and a Colt, do this police work as we'll as a soldier?" he asked one member of his party stand ing near by.
 While walking along, he spied a na- tional guardsman walking his post, and as the young man came to atten- tion and sharply saluted the general with his rifle, the general said: How long have you been in service ?" "About month, sir," was the reply. "How long after you were enlisted were you put on guard duty?" he ask ed. 'The second day after I enlist. ed. sir," replied the sentry.

STATE SUFFRAGIST PRESIDENT
DENOUNCES WASHINGTON PICKETS

The suffrage riots and arrests in Wash
ington today caused emphatic criticism
of White House picketng by prominent
members of the National American
Woman Suffrage Association in Penn
sylvania. Mrs. John o. Miller. of Pitts
burgh, president of the Pennsylvania
branch. is in Philadelphia today. At the
suffrage headquarters, 1906 Finance Build
ing Mrs. Miller and other prominent men,
bers of the suffrage party discussed the
situation.
THE suffrage party has never been in
sympathy with the Congressional Union or
its picketing of the White House The
union has always been most partisan in its
sentiments" said Mrs Miller. Further
more, they have, I think changed the name
of their organization this winter from the
Congressional Union to the National
Women's Party. l believe this was done
with the deliberate intention Of causing con-
fusion between our organization and theirs.
Doubtless there were many people who
read of the riot who thought that we had
a part in IT.
The pickets should not be permitted to
remain in Washington after these dis
graceful affairs. They have exhibited not
only an appalling lack of ideals, but also
an appalling absence of patriotism. Our
organization at this time is devoting every
minute to questions of national and patriotic
interest, while those women have been earn
ing, and justly, the anger Of the public.
