The most important tests have taken place in the post office “tube railway,” used for transporting mails from St. Martin’s-le-Grand to the railroad depots, and although con- ducted in greater secrecy there, it was the arrival of the guardsmen at the | chief London post office that caused the secret of the tests to leak out. Starts Rumor Harvest. When lorry loads of guardsmen began to arrive at St. Martin’sle- Grand, all sorts of rumors began to fly around the city, and there were stories of “massing of troops armed to the teeth,” etc., so that the war office had to confess that there was nothing to be alarmed about and that it was merely a series of experiments regarding the holding capacity of un- It looks as though formalities will delay taking the seat for a consider- able time—perhaps four or five years —and as the earl is now 65, he laugh- ingly admits he will probably be too old for useful legislative work.

LONDON, December 4 (Correspond- ce).—A recent meet of the Scarteen Black and Tan Hunt of Kilmallock had a curious end when the pursued deer was saved by a woman, who| Jocked it in a cabin. As the chase grew furious, the deer reached the top of a hill and sought a place of safety. It finally rushed into a cabin and the occupant immediately closed the door against the hounds, depriving them of their prey. Considerable criticism was aroused recently when a deer chased into the sea by hounds was pursued by motor boat and brought back to the quay.
