Dies on Ward’s Island After Los-! ing Fortune in War New York, Oct. 6.—Beautiful Anna Robinson, formerly Lady Rosslyn, whose name was coupled -9f King Leopold of Belgium, died yes- terday morning in the Manhattan State Hospital for the Insane on Ward's Island. Her complete physi- cal breakdown, following the loss of her large fortune, and her death in insanity and poverty, make,a sombre ending to a chapter that was spectac- ular even in the history of American stage beauties. Of her family there remain only a sister, Miss Margaret Robinson, of 4840 Cedar avenue, West TPhiladel- ‘phia, and a brother, Charles Robinson of 401 Manhattan avenue, this city. Miss Margaret Robinson vesterday gave the story of her sister's life to a reporter in her brother’s home. “We lived in Minneapolis,” she said. Wisconsin in 1871, We went to school togethor and went on the stage together. It was in ‘Shenandoah,’ produced by Mr. Frohman, and Anna played an ingenue part. She was very beautiful.

She will inevitably clash with South America and Mexico and { would not be content until she has | overrun us as she overran Belgium { and Poland and trled to' overrun ! France.” MEDAL FOR POLICEMAN.

Training work mapped out for N: tional Guard and National Army di- visions before they will be regarded as ready for duty abroad is based on a sixteen weeks’' course of the most intensive work in the open, varied with lectures by American and Allied officers. Schedules announced today put great stress on the necessity for night training, trench raiding, scout- ing, trench building and operations of all kinds which may be called for in actual combat. To give the men some respite their Wednesday and Saturday afternoons will be kept free, except in the case of backward indi- viduals or units. Target practice runs through the entire course and the hedules call for 40 hours’ training each week. A striking feature of the pro- gram is the fact that practically the entire sixteen weeks will be devoted to training individuals, platoons and companies. Brigade, divisional and even regimental exercises are reserved for a later period with some minor exceptions during the last weeks. Since the platoon, commanded by a lieutenant, is the actual fighting unit in trench battles, the new regulations fix upon the lieutenants of each com- pany the responsibility for the train- war | decided to try *‘Fruit-a-tives”, IN THE FAMILY; Mo Sign Of Dropsy And Kidney Tro Since Taking “F!
