Husband of the Famous
Annie Besant Is Dead

London, May 21.-The Rev. Frank
| Besant, who was the husband of Mrs
Annie Besant, the widely-known the
osophist, author and lecturer on re-
| ligious, philosophical and scientific
subjects, died recently in the village
of Sibsey in Lincolnshire where, for
45 years, he was vicar of the village
church. The vicar was 76 years old
and his famous wife is nearly 10.
The Rev. and Mrs. Besant attract
ed worldwide attention many years
ago when they separated and en-
gagged in a long controversy over the
custody of their only child. They
were married in 1867. In 1873 a
judicial separation was arranged by
the terms of which Mrs. Besant was
to have the custody of her daughter,
Mabel. Mrs. Besant pursued varied,
worldwide career, fighting in law
courts, addressing huge audiences,
leading strikes and defying govern
ments. She subsequently met
Charles Bradlaugh and took an ac-
tive part in his propaganda.
This led the Rev. Frank Besant to
begin proceedings in 1878 for the
custody of his daughter on the
ground that her mothers opinions
would be detrimental to the future
prospects of the child in society, to
say nothing of her eternal pros
pects."
Mrs. Besant appeared in person
and argued her case with ability,
but the child was given into the Gus
tody of the father. When Miss Ma
bel Besant was 81 years old she at
once returned to her mother who
had by that time become a Socialist
and then a theosophist.

New Calendar to Replace
Old in Russia as Result
of the Cars Overthrow

Petrograd. May 21.-Bringing up
to date of the Russian calendar will
be one of the earliest reforms of the
new government in Russia, although
opposition is expected from eccles-
,iastical quarters.
Any alteration of the calendar has
always been regarded as an act of
impiety by a large section of the
Russian people. When the Gregor-
ian calendar was introduced in 1882
as a correction of the Julian or Ro-
man, three countries in Europe
Russia, Sweden and England-refus-
ed to come into line with the others.
1t was not until 1852 that England
brought the calendar up to date.
Sweden followed the next year but
Russia has persisted in remaining
isolated up to the present
The Julian calendar was eleven
minutes, ten seconds out of reckon
ing each year, and the accumulation
would now amount to about thirteen
days.

COMPENSATION
RULINGS MADE
Chairman Mackey Hands
Down Decision in Regard to
Legitimate Children

A posthumous illegitimate child
has no claim upon the estate of re-
puted parent under the State Work
mems Compensation act, according
to a decision given by Chairman
Harry A. Mackey in claim against
the State insurance fund. In the case
decided the father was killed the day
before he was to have been married
to the woman who three months
later became mother of a child. This
finding is supported by sufficient evil
dence to make it conclusive upon
this board" says the opinion, which
later on holds that, I'VE have no leg
islation which could by any possible
reasoning embrace an illegitimate
child" English decisions quoted in
the opinion award compensation
ito a posthumous child as a depend
ent of a deceased father" The de-
cision which is long one concludes
"In the absence of a statute declar-
ing an illegitimate child dependent
of a deceased father" it can not be
considered as entitled to compensa-
ton.
In a Westmoreland county case it
is held that the widow of man who
broke his neck by falling from
wagon while hauling sand was in the
course of his employment and that
the insurance company involved
must pay the compensation because
the employer recognized the liability
by insuring.
The board in a decision by Com
missioner Scott finds in favor of a
Mexican county claimant, whose hus-
band died from "dilation of the
heart produced by over-eXertion in
heavy employment engaged in while
in the course of his employment"
There was no history of heart disease
prior to the accident and successive
strains brought on the heart condi-
ton which resulted in death.

London's Latin Quarter
Does Without Spaghetti

London, May 21.-Soho, London s
Latin quarter, has passed through
a spaghetti-less week. The national
dish of Italy had long been placed
on the list of prohibited imports, but
the supplies on hand were not ex-
hausted until week ago. Then all
Soho mourned.
Now, however, this is all changed.
A son of sunny Italy who conducts
one of the tempting table d'hote re-
sorts in the Italian colony came to
the rescue by setting up a macaroni
factory. He has not been able to
make spaghetti, which requires spe-
oial machinery to make the holes in
it, but he is turning out miles of
the long, narrow ribbons called Mac
aroni. This will have to suffice until
the spaghetti-making machinery ar
rives from his native land.
