INDIAN PRINCE
LOSES $750,000
BUT GETS WISE
London, Nov. 26.—A total of
£300,000 (near$l ,500,000) was ex
torted as the price of protection
from the Indian Rajah, whose
name is being coveted in high
quarters in connection with his
mulcting by a ring of blackmail
ers, sensational - revelations dis
closed.
The potentate, however, became
wise when only half this sum was
lost and stopped payment on the
second check for £150,000. These
checks were the levy exacted after
the Rajah had been discovered in
a Paris apartment with the engag
ing Mrs. Florence Robinson, wife 1
of an English bookmaker.
Both checks were produced in
court and evidence was adduced
to show the Rajah did not fill in
either check but merely signed
them.
Mrs. Robinson herself appeared
on the stand.
She was examined regarding an
alleged meeting of the conspira
tors to blackmail the Rajah at her
Chapel street house here before
she went to Paris and was caught
with the potentate in the hotel.
Kindness Made No Kind
of Appeal to “Rhino >»
Peter, the tWo-and-a-half-ton
ihinoeeros who lived in the ele
phant house of the Zoological gar
dens, in London, is dead.
-He was an uncouth feltow, sav
age and untraetable. Church, his
keeper, had many a narrow squeak.
Peter would charge heavily at a
set of human ribs and bring up
against Iron bars with a thud.
People who say you can do any
thing by> kindness did not know
Peter’s winsome wayg.
He had been very “phthlsicky
of late. Chest trouble, (’hurch said
it was. You might give him a
couple of bucketfuls of cough mix
ture and it made no difference. Ani
seed and licorice lozenges only
caused him to wheeze the more.
Jennie and Eliza, the young cow
rhinos next door, one from India
and the other from Peter’s own
home, Naoribo, used to shudder
when Peter hacked and gronned.
„ Then pneumonia set in. The
morning before he died, when the
rains were doing their worst, Peter
lay with his diead, to the open rail
ing, gazing with glassy eyes toward
the south and the homeland.
He made strange noises. His
keeper said that they were his final
hymn of hate against mankind, but
It Is possible he was muttering of
his childhood, fifteen years ago,
and talking strangely of the Af
rican deep undergrowths, the hot,
muddy beds in which he used to
roll, of the Arab hunters, and of
glorious freedom.
Then he was suddenly silent. HI*
great, ponderous bulk yielded the
ghost.
