Incidents in the LipeS Of
 WOrLd- Famous Women
> By ELOISE HARRINGTON

His wife became frantic. Her grief at the loss of both her beloved eov- ereign and her husband knew no bounds. One thought obsessed her to wreak her revenge on the woman who was responsible for the great double tragedy of her life. She de- termined that Queen Elizabeth should be slain in expiation of the deaths for which she was responsfble-and Margaret Lambrun herself decided to carry out her plan. She entrusted none other with her purpose, nor ask ed for aid.
 Knowing, however, that as a wom- an she would have great difficulty in travelling without aroustng suspi- cion as to her destination or purpos- es, she disguised herself as a man, took the name of Anthony Sparke" and began her journey to England.
 She had her plans all laid, She carried with her a brace of pistols one for the purpose of shooting the Queen, and the other for killing her. self. Who knows-the first weapon might be knocked out of her hand? And she felt sure that whether or not she succeeded in killing Eliza beth, it were far better for 'her to take her own life than entrust her self to the tender mercies of Elizabeth and her court.
 She learned what were the daily habits of the Queen, so that she could determine on an suspicious moment for carrying out her fatal design. Finally what seemed to her the suit able moment arrived. It was a fes- tive day on which the Queen walked in her garden, and crowds had gath cred to observer their sovereign. Margaret Lambrun was among them, and eagerly she pressed forward to get within good range.
 It seemed simple and easy of full filment-just enc small shot But through excitement and nervousness Anthony Sparke" dropped one of the pistols. Immediately there was a | clamor about her, She was seized be- fore she could end her own life. Brought before the Queen, she de- fiantly avowed her purpose and it's ! causes. She remained fearless be- fore the woman who had inspired so many stout hearts with terror, and Elizabeth wasn't slow to recognize her fine courage. Instead of condemning her to Imprisonment or execution
 she amazed her court and Margaret Lambrun by granting her immediate 1 ly full pardon and giving her a safe conduct to France.

DAILY FEATURES SOCIAL EVENTS
 PERSONAL NOTES

Many of the girls of the younger | set are going in for extremely youth ful designs in the afternoon frocks. There are garden parties galore in aid of some of the war funds, as well as flower sales at many of the war relief benefits. Girlish simpli- city is--as it should be-the keynote of the frocks worn by young buds.
 A particularly charming model that seems to transform each wearer into a. very young girl of colonial days Is illustrated here.
 It is of rose colored Georgette with a simple pointed bodice. Around the 1owcut necp is deep collar of cream lace ruffles. A cream lace ruffle also finishes the elbow-length sleeves, and is bound to it by narrow, old blue ribbon, finished with DOW.
 At the waistline, also, there Is a tiny belt and bow of old-blue ribbon with two long streamers.
 The skirt Is very full with a deep hem at the bottom. Beginning about knee-length, large cream lace ruff fles wind themselves around the skirt, and in each deep curve is a bow knot of the same old-blue velvet ribbon.
 Of course, this frock is designed for a. very young girl, and must be worn with the proper hat and slippers to match. Colonial pumps of black patent leather with low heels are child ish and lovely with this frock, espe- cially when worn with rose-colored silk stockings. The hat is a poke bonnet of rose Georgette with a wreath of tiny roses and long blue vel vet streamers at the back to match the blue on the gown.
 This frock may be worn by short and tall, thin and plump, for 1t has a character of it's own, and looks equally we'll on varying figures. The skirt is quite short, and ehould be worn over white underskirt of silk or taffeta. The fitness of the skirt is the dominant characteristic of t;1.s tion of the waist was 1nodestly ig-

in relation to this tragic incident of her reign that she exercised 8 piece of incredible !clemency.
 Among the retinue attached to Mary Queen of Scots, was a charm ing Scotchwoman, Margaret Lambrun, and her husband. They were devot- ed to their Queen-even more so than many of the courtiers and waiting women of this most attractive sover- eign. They helped her and intrigued for her and stood by her to the bit ter end. How very close was their attachment may be gauged by the fact that when Mary was executed the Lambruns both mourned so deep ly and poignantly that Lambrun him self finally died of grief.

BARBARA OF ERNBCOURT

Barbara of Ernecourt, better known as the Lady of St. Balmont, a second Joan of Arc, was born in 1909, near Verdun. From the earliest childhood she trained herself to the use of arms. She married, when quite young, the Lord of Balmont. During the Thirty Years War in Ger many she always took command of her husbands castle, while he ac- companied the Duke of Lorraine to the field. This brave woman repuls- ed the enemy frequently. When peace was restored. she laid aside the sword and took up the pen, which she wleld- ed with equal skill. The death of her husband, to whom she was tenderly attached, made her resolve to retire from the world, and she entered a nunnery, but she died before takine the veil in May 1860, at the age ot fifty-one.

History is full of tales of vindictive- ness exercised by fair queens against women who, in their misfortune, hap pened to be more fair. But the acts of generosity are few and far be- tween, especially in the case of the powerful feminine rulers-women who actually were queens in more than name.
 But one count of credit should, therefore, be recorded next the name of Queen Elizabeth, who is only too often recalled, with more or less jus tice, as the cruel, and unfair judge of poor Mary. Queen of Scots. It is

SPECIAL GRAND JURY FINDINGS.

When Withycombe's campaign manager said the
Capital Journal lied about pententary affairs the people
Of Marion county gave this paper vote of confidence by
returning majority for Walter M Pierce for governor
That their confidence not misplaced is evidenced by
the report which has been filed by the special grand jury
which has been investigating prison affairs The report
shows up very rotten state Of affairs at the peniten
tiary.
Now if an impartial grand jury were to investigate
the facts concerning the management of the state flax
experiment by the governor its report would sustain all
that this paper has ever printed concerning this matter
Such investigating body with all the facts before
them would be compelled to affirm every word the Cap
ital Journal printed concerning the Kerr salary grab
which stands today the bodest effort at treasury
raidng and the rankest confidence game ever worked
the people of any stateand allowed to go unpunish-
ed and unrebuked by the chief executive Of the state
In printing the facts in these and other matters the
Capital Journal did not attempt to make political capital
because it in the service of no particular political or
ganizaton 1t has simply sought to enighten the people
in regard to the administration of public affairs in order
that they might take the necessary to guard their
interests as citizens and taxpayers.
Withycombes reelection did not worry this paper
because we really expected it. since the leading Portland
papers, with their large circuatons refused to discuss
the Kerr matter at ALL and for political defended
the governors prison and flax policies The Capital
Journal was not able to get the truth before all the people
of the state and therefore, Senator Pierce was unable
to overcome the large normal party majority behind
Withycombe
But success or defeat at the polls ought not to be
material concern to any real newspaper 1t should do
its duty honestly in the discussion Of public questions and
accept the final verdict Of the people without discussion
The success defeat of particular candidate means
nothing to real newspaper That is why the Capital
Journal has not discussed the governors reelection until
the report of the special grand jury made it pertinent
and interesting subject once more
We do not now, and never have charged Governor
Withycombe with personal dishonesty would not even
say that his intentions are bad Bue we do contend that

NAVALISM.

The biggest task of the great peace conference in
the opinion of Americans the establishment of league
of nations which shall keep order in the world.
Such federation must not only possess technical
authority to decide controversies between nations but
must have police power to enforce its decisions and
lsubdue any troublemakng nation within or without the
league
This implies a limitation of national armaments and
The establishment of international army and navy
strong enough to cope with any situation that may arise
Clearly enough it will not work if any nation is allow
ed to maintain great army Every nation, under such
pan will have to limit its army to the minimum strength
needed for domestic order National armies would then
be comparable to state militia in ordinary times
Neither will it work if any nation is allowed to main
tain great navy. League Of Nations could tolerate
no competition with its own world-police fleet
We cannot have "navasm" any more than s'militar-
ISM"
in the present war; when the Germans insisted that they
had good right to the strongest army the world as
Great Britain had to the strongest navy The Germans
OF course not honest about the matter They gnof
ed the fact that for century Great Britain had not abus
ed her naval supremacy whereas Germany had made the
most indefensble use of her military supremacy But in
theory holds great for the worlds peace
as the other And despite Great Britans honorable re-
cord and present Intentions it is conceivable that her
naval power at future time might be abused Other
nations asked to enter the proposed federation cannot
overlook that fact.
1t appears, then, that Britain holds the key to the
of this great enterprise She can make strong
peace federation possible and practicable by consenting
to reduce her armament voluntarily relinquishing
her naval supremacy in favor Of the federation By re-
fusng she prevent the formation of any effective
league of nations and thus disappont the world.
What will she do about it?
