Free When Health Fails. The militant suffragette leader was arrested as she was leaving Dr. Ethel Smyth’s hcuse, at Woking, where she has been convalescing since her re lease from jail on April 12 last. Mrs. Pankhurst and Dr. Smith were about to enter an automobile to go to a meeting of the Women’s Social and Political Union, which Mrs. Pank hurst leads. Seemingly, the authori ties* took it for granted that if Mrs. Pankhurst is well enough to go about, she is well enough to be returned to jail under the provisions of the “cat and mouse bill.” If she keeps her threat “hunger strikes” again and her health falls she will be set free until she recuperates, and s*o on until she will have passed three years with in walls. A nurse accompanied Mrs. Pank-: hurst to jail. Miss Sylvia Pankhurst and many suffragettes in taxicabs es corted “the martyr,” as they called her admiringly. Militants Storm Jail.

She was liberated after being searched. When the gates of Holloway Jail opened to receive her, a score of mili tants tried to rush the prison and the wardens had difficulty in preventing them from entering with their leader. For a long time they remained out side shouting: "We will keep on fighting until we win.” Lord Francis Hope Faces Land Problem May Sell Historic Box Hill on Basis of 99 Years’ Lease—It Brings No Income.

The young lady seems to have made up her mind she will not marry Al bert Leigh Bennett, a persistent sui tor whom nothing can discourage and whom her father desires as a son-in- law. Three times the fickle girl has ac cepted Mr. Bennett, three times all preparations for the w'edding have been made, three times the invita tions have been sent out, three times the variable girl turning with the zephyr of coquetry has said: “I will not marry him.” So her father, a kinsman of the Duke of Norfolk. England’s premier Duke, has sent her from his town house, 13 Rutland Gate, to his seat, Glossop Hall, Derbyshire. There she will have time and solitude to reflect that young Bennett’s persistency at least deserves to be rewarded. Of him his triends speak most highly. But broken engagements are re warded lightly in London, and seem to provoke no ill-feeling between the fickle maiden and the jilted swain In these affairs Britons show stoic calm and consider themselves above resentment or disappointment. “My Name Is John/’ Says Little Prince Youngest Son of British Monarchs Balks at Being Called "High ness” by an Attendant.

Court Orders Mrs. Besant to Sur render Custody of Boy Hailed as Near Divinity Threshold. Special Cable to The American. MADRAS, May 31.—Judgment was delivered in the High Court against Mrs. Annie Besant, president of the Theosophical Society, in the suit brought against her by Mr. G. Nara- yen lycr for the custody of his two sons. The latter Krlshnamurthi, aged 17. and Milayananda, 14 years of age, are at present studying at Oxford, whith er they were taken by Mrs. Besant. Mr. Iyer explained that his action was based on his dissatisfaction at the moral influence which had been exerted over his two sons by W. L. Leadbeater, to whom at the advice of Mrs. Bezant their education had been intrusted. Mrs. Besant Blames Politics. Mrs. Besant submitted a written reply to the allegations against Mr Leadbeater, which she alleged had been made from political motives and from personal malice because of her efforts to inspire the students of India with loyalty to the Empire. Mr. Leadbeater, on being cross-ex amined, said he had been engaged with Mrs. Besant, who had spoken of him as “a man on the threshold of divinity,” in physical and clair voyant experiments and he character ized the allegations made against him as atrocious falsehoods*. He admitted that he had given the boys certain counsel to which objec tion had been taken by their father. He had,, however, merely given them that advice to enable them to es cape the effect of, certain thought forms and astral influences, but in deference to Mrs. Besant’s. wishes he had agreed to discontinue it. New Leader of World. Mrs. Befant.. who conducted: her own case. s*aid she took the boy Krishnamurthi to England to trim him for the spiritual leadership of the world. Krishnamurthi, she de clared, was a religious enthusiast, and she separated him from his associ ates and removed him from his en vironments **o that his life might not be endangered by his being suddenly roused from his trance. Mrs. Besant appealed to the court not to order the restitution of the boys to their father. She pointed out that if that were done, the inferenee would be that the father’s terrible allegations were true. In that event, the boy Krishnamurthi would be ir retrievably ruined, and once back in India, he would become a social out cast. . • * . Mr. Justice Blakewell, in delivering judgment, held that, while the serious charges against Mr. Leadbeater had not been established, the evidence showed him to be a person who was wholly unfit to be in charge of the boys.

Children's Ghosts Haunt English Home Little Ones Pursued by Supernatural Visitors That Leave Elders Alone. Special Cable to The American. DUBLIN, May 31.—A ghost which resists all attempts to lay it has so frightened a widow and her children at Coonen, near Fivemiletown, Coun ty Fermanagh, that the familj r are thinking of emigrating as the only way to escape the ghost's attentions. Mrs. Murphy, the widow, and her young children have been disturbed for some time past by mysterious noises in their little cottage. At first the sounds were attributed to rats, but investigation tended to disprove that theory, and to show that the children are the special objective of the ghost or ghosts. When the chil dren were taken away all was quiet, but when they are in the cottage the sounds follow them from room to room. They are scratching sounds, such as would be caused by rats under the floor, knocking at the walls, and sounds of footsteps overhead. Skep tical neighbors have sat up at night in the room occupied by the children, and have emerged at daybreak con vinced and fearful of the nearness of the spiritual world. In one case tw r o hardened farmers watching by the bedside of a girl were roused from their dozeful watch by the child’s cry. “Something is clutch ing me!” “Where?” they asked, and for answer she pointed to her breast. Instantly they w'hipped the clothes down, but found nothing to explain the child’s fright.

The King lias a great liking for the quiet, unoffending George Keppel, whose devotion to his wife is an example to many who would sit in judgment on them. “The Queen and myself,” the King is said to have remarked on the oc casion of the memorial dance at the palace, “hope to see much more of Mrs. Keppel and yourself during the season.” Mrs. Keppel is not in good health. It is solely for this reason that she would prefer the quieter season abroad.

By FREDERICK WERNER. Special Cable to The American. BERLIN, May 31.—Very seldom does It happen that a member of the German Reichstag makes public t statement about Germany’s position in Europe like the one published in a prominent Berlin daily by Herr Gothein the other day. “Germany,” he says with the ut most frankness, "has no foreign friends. The people among whom we choose our diplomats and influential military officials, the Junker clas:*, are strangely clumsy as statesmen and the feelings they arouse abroad are never friendly towards Germany, w hile they are ably supported in their praisew'orthy efforts by a crowd of political court jesters, who consider it their chief task to throw s*tones at the window' panes of our foreign neighbors, pranks for which the German people have to pay dearly in ever-increasing taxes for military armaments, that we may have an army and navy stroug enough to pro tect us against the indignation which we ourselves have provoked. Belgium Friendly to France. "In this respect France has been most successful in Belgium. Some of our tactless retired generals, hav ing nothing better to do, set up the cry that in case of a w ar with France. Germany should consider only ques tions of tactics, not of national rights And as the French fortifications along the Belgium frontier are much weak er than along the German, Germany should not respect the recognized and guaranteed neutrality of Belgium. The enemy must be attacked on the point whefe his defeat was most likely. To make matters worse pan-German hot heads by their demand that the Ger man language should be made the official language of Belgium helped to increase the fear o^ Belgians that Germany was planning to rob them of their independence. Under these circumstances no German should blame France for impressing’ It upon the mind of the people of Belgium that in case of a w~ar their place was at France’s side.” More Troops To Be Paid. The w riter show s that these French efforts have been eminently success ful and that Belgian sentiment at present Is decidedly anti-German, while all serious statesmen advocate an alliance with France, which will probably very soon be an accom plished fact. He points out that this will mean an addition of at least 150,000 .troops to the French armies and denounces German diplomats, be- Vause they have not come forw’ard long ago with the open declaration .that in case of a Franco-German war Germany would respect the neutrality of Belgium as conscientiously as Bis marck did in 1870. as long as France did the same Had they done this Germany would now have a friend in Belgium, whose trade with this country is far more extensive and important than her trade with France. Now the opportunity is lost forever, because of the amazing stupidity of German statesmen.

Hot Water, Toast and Egg for Breakfast a Meal She Hates, King Is Careful. Special Cable to The American. LONDON. May 31.—Queen Mary ■ has become ieriously alarmed at her i increasing weight, and has now given up eating potatoes and bread and is * going through a form of mild exer- ! rises early in the morning. Her ! mother, the late Duchess of Teck, who •. ( was an extremely handsome womai), ' became enormously rtout as she ap proached middle age, and Queen Mary is now obsessed by the idea that she may inherit this tendency. With the exception of the Duke of Connaught all the members of the royal family are very hearty eaters, and the teas with heavy sandwiches, which are served at 5 o’clock in the 1 royal residences would stagger most middle-class families. Queen Mary has a wonderful appetite, and it is a positive penanoe to her to drink a tumbler of hot water In the morning and to be content with dry toast and an egg for breakfast. King George, who daily goes through Sandow' exercises before an open window in the morning, has be come extremely careful about his ' diet, as he suffers now' and again from painful attacks of indigestion, but In spite of all his recent worries and cares he is in far better health to-day than he was when he came to . the throne The children are also being carefully trained in the matter of physical exercises and the habits of the late King Edward, who ate anything and everything which pleased him, are constantly held up to them as a shocking example of the wrong way to live.
