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.
