PALESTINE CAMPAIGN BY THE BRITISH IS
 GIVEN IN A LETTER

LONDON, March 14.-Some of the hardships experienced by the Brit ish forces in Palestine is described in a letter received here from a priest. The letter, written shortly before the fall of Jerusalem, tells of day early in November when camel convoy from Besarabia was unable to reach the men then fight ing for the deliverance of the Holy City from the Turk.
 There was a hot wind blowing, wrote the priest. s"A tumbler full of water was left in my bottle which I divided between four officers whose lips were split and covered with a green slime. That afternoon l had a burial service, and, literally l could not articulate without keeping my hand to my mouth and pulling my lower lip off my teeth, while bull lets from a concealed sniper whizzed past me In the evening water came in, enough to give each one a bottle quite inadequate.'

MISS FANNIE DURACK WILL COMPETE WITH
 AMERICAN SWIMMERS

SAN FRANCISCO, March 14.-In view of the American trip which Miss Fannie Durack, the Australian swimming champion, will make this summer to compete with American girl swimmers, unusual interest is taken in comparing any relative time made by the champion as against those made by women of the Unit ed States.
 In a mile race in which Miss Du- rack recently competed her time was 27 minutes and 2S seconds. While this is one minute and twenty sec Onds slower than the worlds rec ord which she holds, it is interesting to note that the best American rec ord by a woman for the distance is 31 minutes, B 4-5 seconds, which would indicate that Miss Durack will have little difficulty in going back to Australia with new American figures to her credit

Kirby Freed on Charge
Of Nonsupport Made
by Dissatisfied Wife

Bert Kirby, 1910 Jones street, an
employ of the Graham Ice Cream
company, was arraigned in police
court Saturday morning, charged
with desertion and non-support. His
wife, who lives at 1919 Lake street,

ing to evidence introduced, Kirby
has been paying his wife $50 a
month since that time. Mrs. Kirby
asserts this amount is insufficient.
Kirby, who delivers ice cream,
stated that his wife has list of the
customers he delivers to, and that
every day she calls them up and
bothers them. He believes this will
cause him to lose his job. He is
earning $50 month.
81 believe a man that pays his wife
$32 a month, under these circum-
stances when he is only earning $50,
is doing all he can," said Police
Judge Britt. Kirby was dismissed.

Distinguished Guest,
Sau Dutch Officials

Amerengen, Holland, Nov. l6.-
William Hohenzollern has not
been informed by the Netherlands
government. He is regarded rather
as distinguished foreigner who
has sought refuge and who has
claim to protection.
Presumably he is free to go
where he likes, but the fact that his
suite has actually been interned
restricts his movement.
Count Won Bentwick explained
today that the former crown
prince, as we'll as the former en-
peror, ceased to be soldiers when
they abdicated. Nothing is known
at the castle concerning the FORM
er emperor's future movements or
as to the whereabouts of the
former empress.
The former emperor was seen
today strolling about the castle
grounds with Count Won Bent
wick and the counts son. He
wore gray military overcoat.
The members of the former en-
peror's suite today surrendered
their swords to Dutch officers.
They had previously surrendered
their other arms and today's for
mality completed the act of in
ternment.
