Mary Reed Has Spent Thirty
Years ir, Indian Colony.

LONDON, May 21.--A story Of heroic
self-sacrifce and devotion has reached
England from the lepur village OF Cham
dag. India. where Mary Reed, a solitary
white woman missionary il giving her
lifefto minister to the suffcrings or her
fellow lepers.
News Of her isolated life was brought
back by Mr.. Oldrieve, organizing secre-
tary OF the Mission Of Lepers who has
just returned from a 10000 mile journey
visiting all the leper colonies in India.
Thirty years ago Miss Reed went into
this desolate spot in the Himalayas,
5000 feet above the sea level, offering
herself 10 the leper cause. Although a
victim of the malady. she IS still able
to carry on her spiritual work among
those afflicted like herself.
Miss Reed seldom sees white people,
for her station is so miles from the

G0RG0SAURUS TOO
MUCH FOR DINOSAUR
Gigantic Beast Used to Run on
His Hind Legs When in
Hurry.
SPEEDY BUT A LOWBROW
Used to Tear to Pieces the
Poor Dinosaurs Who Had
No Defence.

Best minds Of the American Museum
OF Natural History agree that the gor-
gosaurus. d gigantic beast which lived
way back in paleozoic times, ran when
in a hurry on its hnd legs.
Nobody over saw a gorgosaurus, but
scientists shopping around his ancient
habltats have found enlightenlug foot
prints and other evidence that he once
lived IN what IS now the Canadian prov
ince OF Alberta. They show that this
carnivorous dinosaur used all fours In
ordinary travelling. but being spurred
to high speed the big fellow got up on
his hind legs. Accordingly. u gorgo-
saurus skeleton recently acquired by the
museum from the Red Deer River beds
81 Alberta has just peen mounted IN
his running pose.
In explaining the probable habits OF
the goTgosa urus Or. w. -. Matthew,
curator Of tho museums department Of
vertebrate paiRontology. pictures the

OF unwary duck billed dinosaurs that
have carelessIy wandered from tho
banks Of rivers and lagoons which
served them as refuge from landlubbers
Ike tho Gorgosaurus.
Tho gorgosaurus was long on speed
but short on brains. DR.. Matthew said.
In fact, he was a real lowbrow among
the ancient animals. Intellectually he
would have been a good companion for
erocodlles, which are put at the foot of
the class in most ZOOS.
SO. DR.. Matthew said this enormous
but rather stupid beast would rely on
his spsed to catch the frightened duck
billed dinosaurs. Standing upon his
rear legs and using his massive tail to
balance the body lie would pursue his
prey. Catching them. he would attack
ferocieusly with claw and tooth. The
duck billed dinosaurs had no means OF
defence IL caught and they were prompts

saurus's menu.

 As Cinderella Jane, Carmel Myers appears in the role of a girl who darns socks and keeps house for the indi- gent artists of the Bohemian quarters.
 Contrasting strongly with the Green wich Village scenes are glimpses of the ultra-rich whose dowagers hope to marry their daughters of to one or another of the lionized young artists in whose favor they bask by virtue of an occasional check.

During question time member had asked a question about the murder of Kate Carroll, who was murdered, it is charged. by armed Sim Feiners be- cause she had written letters anent illicit drinking in her neighborhood. Lady AstOr intervened with a supple mentary question and holding up her hand asked the House several times to listen attentively as she had some thing important to say.
 The Speaker asked will the noble lady put her question without lee turing the house."
 Lady Astor's "question" proved to he a request that the government con- trol the liquor traffic in Ireland so that such crimes would not occur.
 The Irish Attorney General said this particuluar crime was the out come of illicit liquor traffic but Lady Astor persisted that all kinds of drink traffic. Illicit or otherwise. should be abolished. The matter thereupon dropped.
