reer Since a Boy, is Sentenc
ed to 3 Years.
London.—Dudolf Majoribanks, an
amazing silk-hattod criminal, now 34
; ears otd, who comes of a gvod fam
ily but iias pursued a most ingenious
and high-handed life since he was a
hoy, has just been sent away for
three years’ penal servitude, which
will be followed by seven years pre

In court he wore a frock coat and
made a most excellent appearance
.Majoribanks has hardly ever been
out of jail for more than a month
since he was 17 years old. His fam
ily had him study for the profession
of an architect and then sent him to
settle in Canada. He soon came back
and was given money to go to the
Continent, but he went to Brighton,
the great watering place, instead.
He joined the Royal Marines, desert
ed again, joined the Grenadiers, de
serted and then entered on his re
markable career of crime. Once in
Maidsone jail he was the ringleader
of a riot which had to be quelled by
soldiers wdth fixed bayonets-
Just Ended Term.
He had just ended a term of four
years’ imprisonment when he called
on a clergyman to ask where his
stepfather was living and while at the
vicarage he purloined a chscit book,
which he used freely Tor many weeks.
Two months ago the whole detective
service of Ixtmlon was looking lor
im. On June sth they caught him,
hut next flay as he was being taken
by train in charge of two police of
ficers he jumped out at Praedstreet
station. A constable attempted to
follow him and was seriously In
jured. It was some days before Ma
jcribanks was recaptured.
He had stayed at the Hotel Cecil
and hired a motor car from the gar
age there. Once he engaged rooms
at the Park View Hotel and left
without paying. The same day as
"Commander Crichton" he hired a
motor car for six weeks at $75 per
week.
Hired Auto.
As ‘ Commander Herbert” he hired
ar. automobile and drove to he North
Downs then he paid for the car with
ii stolen check and borrowed $1.85
from the chauffeur. He had become
"!/Ord Reginald Herbert" when he
bought a high priced bouquet paid
Tor it with a stolen check and got
$lO in chang" As "Sir Charles War

but as “Sir Francis Ford" he got a
gold cigarette case-
One favorite trick of his was so

C. O. D. He Intercepted the messen
gers and wheedled them into deliver
ing the bundles to 'him.
On the stand Marjorlhanks said his
actions were "consequent on his as
sociation with callous persons.”
"How can a man come out of prison
a better man than he was when he
went in?” he asked "I tried to get

IGNORANCE AND BLISS.

PREHISTORIC
TIMES AGAIN
Unique Cinema Drama Trans
ports the Audience Back to
the “Ages of Long Ago.”
London.—Seymour Hicks has been
the chief actor at Portland in a unique
cinema drama. He and his company
have transported the people of Port
land back to prehistoric times, and his
merry men have been prowling about
with huge clubs and bearskins, while
their women folk have been cowering
beneath the despotic sway of some
bloodthirsty monarch of the Flint Age.
Visitors to ChurchopO—and there
are many thousands of them—have
been able to see primeval man and
woman living their prehistoric lives
over again.
The Isle of Slingers, to give Portland
its proper prehistoric name, made a
suitable setting for the film, “Before
Our Times/’ in which Seymour Hicks
is the despotic king, because the island
provided pletny of evidence today of
its very ancient history, and many of
its physical features are decidedly
prehistoric.
Film Story.
The film story tells of an island
ruled over by a particularly ferocious
monarch (Seymour Hicks) who has a
daughter of surpassing beauty. Life
on the island is quite Arcadian and its
placidity is only broken into by the
occasional depredations of the ich
thyosaurus or the plesiosaurus or
some other primeval monster.
Upon the island’s shore one fine day
is wrecked a stranger who makes love
to the Princess. He is seized and
bound and brought before the King,
as chief justice, to stand trial for un
lawful intrusion or espionage.
The prisoner stands in a stone dock,
facing the King while the case is ar
gued out. with the occasional inter
vent ion of a club or stone axe.
Finally the verdict is guilty and the
King drawing a huge black cap over
his head, sentences the prisoner to he
staked down to an antheap after being
smothered with honey.
The Princess, of course, connives at

Economic and Political
Alliance-King Albert
Brussels.—Kins: Albert, during Ills
recent visit to Switzerland, appears
to have found sympathetic rceptlon of
his idea for an economic and politcal
alliance among the small states of
western Europe. He 1s so enthusiastic
over the matter that he Is actively at
work in furtherance of the Idea and
hopes that eventually Holland, Den
mark, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Swe
den and Norway, may bo brought to
gether with Belgium In the alliance.
It Is understood that King Albert
sees no practicability In the sugges
tion of a defensive alllanee along mili
tary lines, as the countries concerned
are widely separated geographically
and weak In military forces even when
taken collectively. But he Believes
that some understanding for common
commercial and economic aims would
he of advantage to offset the commer
cial aggression practiced by some of
the great powers.
The course which Germany has
taken In cutting off Holland from
much of the trade of Eastern Kurope
by the. new canal conectlng Emder.
with the Rhine Is taken as one In
stance of such economic pressure.
Switzerland is said to suffer particu
larly under the shadow of German bus
iness rivalry.
King Albert also recently approached
the government of Luxemburg with his
proposal, but he has been Informed
that aH the principality Is a member of
the German Customs Union, It Is not
free tn enter Into any economic ar
rangement wtlh other countries.
FULL OF CRAFT.
"How calm It Is, this summer sea,
And yet how treacherous,” said she.
"Yes," he refilled; “I’m fre* to say
’Tis very full of craft today."
