OLD LONDON WALL HAS BEEN FOUND LONDON A part of the London wall built by skilled Homan masons In the early Christian era has just been discovered at the back of the Mlnorecs. The silo Is where the wall. starting at the Homan fort where afterwards William Ihe Con queror built the Tower of London, ran northward by what Is now known as America Square. The course of the Homan wall which for a long ]le rlod marked the limits of London has been determined with great aceuraey. The discovery In America Square con firm what had been con.* n ctured from excavations elsewhere but It lias this additional interest In digging out the soil in front of the wall the line of the ancient ditch has been traced. Antiquaries now agree that the Ro mans niHile a regular wet ditch all around the city, though this has been hotly. Desputed in Ihe past , the more extensive City ditch, construct ed early in ihe XMI century having for the most part obliterated Its traces. The wall found now Is In al most perfect condition. It Is typical In every detail of Ihe Hotnan con structlon which seems never to hate varied In Ihe entire circle of the city. It Is K 1-2 feet In thickness and the difficulty the workmen have found in breaking It with wedges and sledge hammers hears out the boast that Ihe Homans built not for the day but for all lime.

The couple came to reside at Nice some five years ago and the man, a talented artist at once made many friends He occupied an apartment in the Avenue Forrighone and seemed to be getting on very well, but the neigh bors were rather surprised at never seeing him accompanied by his wife. It is alleged that for the last six months he kept her shut up in a dark ; room, visiting her only rarely and i actually starving her. Anonymous I letters reached the police and finally S a sister of the wife asked the au ithorities lo make an investigation. | The detectives went to the Alcazar I d'Ete where the musician played and I asked him to follow them to the sta | tion house. The chief of police, j and an examinating magistrate then j went with him to his apartment, ; where his unfortunate wife was found shut up in a dark room in total neg lect lying on an Iron bed and a mat tress. The state of the room baffled all description. When the chief of police tried to open a window to let in air he found it Impossible to do so. There was no furniture in the apart ment worth speaking of. The woman was reduced to a skeleton and had to be carried to a hospital in blankets. She smiled faintly when the police entered, hut either through want or illness did not seem to he in full possession of her faculties. Her husband declared he had not been able to pay for medical assistance. A German doctor was called and said that he had in fact been asked to at tend his wife and he recommended her removal to a hospital 3 months ago, which he thought had been done. : Marks were found on the woman's, body as if she had been beaten, but! her husband denied having ever struck her. The marks he said were; probably due to 'alls, she had sus tained. He was nevertheless detain ed in custody. Malaria Makes Pale Blood.

GENERAU3OOTH BEL!EV~IS IN WOMAN’S EQUALITY LONDON—What General Booth the veteran founder of the Salvation Army thinks of women is expressed In ills latest message to the army. "First and foremost” the general says, "I Insist on women s equality. Woman is as important as valuable, as capable as man and just as neces aary tp the progress and happiness of the world. Unfortunately a large number of people of every class think otherwise. They still elirg to the no tion of bygone ages that as a being woman is Inferior to men. To many she is little more than a plaything for tin ir leisure hours. To others she is like a piece of property, a slave iu everything hut in name. Often she is treated with less consideration as to health and comfort tknn horses that run in omnibuses or beasts that are fattening for slaughter. Taken as a whole I say that woman Is equal to man In the value of her gifts and ex tent of her influence and I maintain that if she b ( given n fair chance she will prove It to be so. Let the boy be taught from his earliest infancy flint his sister is as good a* he is in all that is important to life except per haps in physical force, which he poss esses in common with brute beasts. Let the girl be made to feel that her value to God and man Is as high as it would have been had she been a boy.
