 HE'S ON A DIED
Hindu Prince Has Amusing Time in Paris Exposing
 Fdkir

Neuilly, Paris, Oct. S.-''He eats 1t alive, a real fire-eater from India, a real Hindu" shouted the spieler in front of his ballyhoo at the Neuilly fair some nights ago. If you don't believe he is a real Hindu speak to him in the Hindu language and he will answer you"
 distinguished looking gentleman stepped up and commenced addressing f1re-eater in Hindu. The latter was si- lent and perpleXed. The dark stranger spoke to the ballyhoo man in all the known dialects in India but still the lat ter remained silent.
 You're not a Hindu" shouted the spieer to the stranger, you're not talking Hindu but gibberish, if you're a Hindu why don't you eat little of this fire?''
 II can't just now, I am on a diet" replied the Prince of Kapurthala-for it was the genial Hindu prince seeing the sights. The prince has been quite figure around Paris and Deauville this season. He reached the third round in the mixed doubles, teamed with the princess in the worlds hardcourt ten- his championships at Saint Cloud.

Armagh, Primatial City of Ireland, Much Upset When Political Meet
 Ing is Held Sunday.


 Armagh, Ireland, Oct S-Armagh the primatial city of Ireland, both Catholic Cardinals and the Protestant Erimate having their seats there. was shocked when it learned that Mich ael Collins, Minister of Finance in the Republican Cabinet and members for Armagh in the Dell Eirrean, was to hold a political demonstration here on a Sunday.
 The demonstration passed off quietly but the after celebration walk ened the old city out of years of leth- argy.
 The speech making over, the spin ncrs of roulette wheels, women and children, gathered along the main street and soon gambling, chiefly in pennies and shillings, was proceeding at a rate that might have made the toncessionaries of French watering places envious.
 This is not uncommon in the south of Ireland which in this respect is much like the Latin countries but in the north it is drowned upon.
 Dances were also organized and it was daylight Monday morning before the Revellers brought their celebra- tion to a conclusion.
 Michael Collins seemed reluctant to return to Dublin early in the even ing. He is the sort of an Irishman who after work would enjoy. just such q revel-a great big boy full of hu- uor and play.

 Los Angeles, June 2-Guy Price, Jr Americas youngest dramatic critic, claims the unique distinction of being the first newspaper man to sit on Mary Pickford's lap while ob- taining an interview.
 Young Price. who resides in Los Angeles, was assigned by a local newspa per to visit the studio of Mrs. Douglas Fairbanks (Mary'S name in private life) and carry out the deli cate mission of interviewing the film star on whether MT. and Mrs. Fair banks are expecting an heir. & As soon as Price, Junior, saw Mary he held out his arms to her Al though she was busy before the cam era Mary stopped work right then and there and took the youngest re- porter Of them all on her lap and hugged him tight.
 But then, you see, Price, Junior, is only years old
 The way he happens to be a jour- naliSt at such an early age is because he inherited his liking for the stars, his father being widely known as the dramatic editor of a Los Angeles nowspa per.
 "Coo-rrrr-as-h-h-h? questioned Price, Junior. as soon as he was com fortably settled on Mary's lap.
 ''No, I'm sCrry," answered Mary, '7out I haven't any little girl or boy for you to play with. Won't do?"
 "Burr-r-up- -a-goo-a-goo. Er-erer- hmmnlnm."
 Why. the idea. He wants to know if I intend to have a playmate for him the next time he sees me- ,'' confessed Mary blushing.
 ''I refuse to answer. Ouch! He's got a hold of my hair," cried the actress. Pleas stop pulling so hard on that curl-Im dreadfully sorry, but Doug and I both hope so some time-yes, FIJI tell you the very first one. only please-nice boy"
 Won't you come up for bread and milk some afternoon with Doug and me?' the movie star asked. ''Yum-yum -yummy yum yum, !" cOoed Price, Junior.
 And then you can have your afternoon nap on my very own bed. Would you like that said Mary, her golden curlS all tousled.
 ''Mummmu- -mnnlmm,' huTnmed Price, Junior. conteented1y.
 ''He says that I have won, and that he doesn't care what the city editor says to him about falling down on a story" laughed Mary. Well, you just say that I love all children and I guess that will do for this time"
 And the interview was terminated with a good oId-fashioned 'Fbear hug"
