LONDON, March 22.—Society is much exercised regarding the probable action of the clubs toward Lord Rodney, whose wife, when she obtained a divorce from him on Thursday, testified that on one occasion he struck her in the eye with his clenched fist. There are rumors that his resignation will shortly be handed in at the Carleton and other - aristocratic clubs to which he belongs. One paper, referring to the details revealed in the @ivorce court, says: No more sordid tale was ever told in & police court than the story Lady Rod- ney related of her husband’s conduct toward her.” The latest London novelty is the “som- ersault cure” for fat women.

About sixty arrests have been made at | Warsaw in connection with the trial of Colonel Grim, who, it has been asserted, had during ten years revealed to Ger- many every plan prepared by Russia in the eventuality of war between the two countries. The discovery of the colonel’s treason was due to his wife, who de- nounced her husband in revenge for his having paid attentions to another woman. | Strikers and Wives Parade. ¢triking miners at Congress.

JESTERS LAUGH KAIGER FEARS AT CHAMBERLAIN| HEALTH PERIL3 Colonial Secretary’s At- tire a Subject for Ridicule. Johu Dillon, Who Disturbed Parliament, Is a Dublin Hero. LONDON, March 22—The sensational exit of John Dillon, the Irish Nationalist. from the House of Commons Thursday last, as a result of his calling Chamber- lain, the Colonial Secretary, a ‘‘damned lier,” continues to be the topic of the hour. The Irish Nationalist papers back up Dillon’s declaration regarding Cham- berlain’s lack of veracity with cheerful frankness, though the Dublin Evening Telegraph remarks that Dillon was guilty. of a slight anticipation regarding Cham- berlain’s damnation, which, it says, is only coming, though already in sight, adding: “As to his being a liar, that goes without saying.” The object of this abuse has created another sensation, not, as usual, by bit- ing invective, but by his clothes. The Tailor and Cutter, which paper was a customed to belaud the Colonial Secre- tary as the very pink of fashion, now says: “We are sorry to note that Mr. Cham- berlain is deveioping quite a stoop, and fear that he Is losing some of his old-time smartness. It is true that his monocle is still in its old place, but we miss the familiar orchid, and, as 'we have examined his garments, we could not but feel that conservatism' was sadly apparent, for there much in them that was not up- to-dat Chamberlain's coat lapels, says the Tailor and Cutter, are piain, heavy and disfigured by a long, gaping breast pocket, like some ugly wound, cailing for assist- ance. The washing vest of Chamberlain, the paper also says, was quite out of har- mony with his coat, while his trousers were wide and unshapely. The Westminster Gazette humorously comments on the fact that a weak spot has at last been found in Chamberlain’s armor, adding: ‘‘Remembering the weird and wonderful clothing with which the doorkeepers of the House of Lords were startled in-1893, when the home rule bill gathered the noble clans together, we can only come to the conclusion that Mr. Chamberlain is beginning to quahfy for a seat in the House of Lords,” In the meantime Dillon, exempt from the critical eye of the Tailor and Cutter's editor, is the hero of the hour in Dublin. One of the most amusing sequels of Dil- lon’s forcible retorts occurred in the grand committee-room of the House of | Commons, where a deputation of women graduates was presenting a petition ask- ing to be given the power to vote at the election for members of Parljament. Miss Beatrice Harraden, the novelist, who was une of the delegates, warmly supported the petition, claiming that it was unfair that women should have to pay the in- come tax and yet not be allowed 1o vote at Parliamentary elections. The members of Parilament who were listening were hurriedly called to take part in the divis- ion on Dillon’s_suspension, Willlam E. Leckey, the nistorlan, and Unionist member of Parliament for Dub- lin University, who was among the mem- bers who heard the statements of the supporters of the petition, returned and addressed the graduates, saying he won- dered if they would like a seat In Parlia- ment in view of the fact that they would run the risk at any moment of being called “damned liars?” Leckey concluded with saying he believed the emotional ele- ment in politics was quite unduly devel- oped as it was without women entering the field. BANEER JOHN McGEHEE IS GRANTED A DIVORCE Willful Desertion the Charge on Which the Decree Is Awarded. SAN JOSE, March 22.—John H. McGe- hee, a banker of this city, has been granted a divorce from his wife, Lena E. McGehee, on the ground of willful de- sertion. For many years the McGehees were prominent in the ‘‘upper ten’ of so- ciety. They were married about nineteen years ago, and have two young children. Mrs. McGehee was formerly Miss Lena Towle of this city. A few years ago dif- ler:nces arose between Mcéehae and his wife, and two years ago she left him and a home surrounded by every luxury. Since then she has supportgd. herself by dressmaking. By the decree of the court the custody of the two children is given to the father. McGehee is cashier of the Bank of San Jose, and for many years was connected with the First National Bank. He is an extensive fruit grower. Every woman cherishes the delusion that she is capable of reforming any man if only given the opportunity.

Agont Pacific Coast Palace Hotel 8an Francisco | Magnetis: German Law Regarding Prepared Meats Is Explained. . . United States Will Protect Itself Against Boracic | Food, - AL i WASHINGTON, March 22.—Secretary Wilson to-day stated that it was not cer- tain as yet to what extent this Govern- ment will act in meeting the new meat law of the German Government, which will take effect October 1. “The demand abroad,” said he, “is for the light cured meats, and the effect of the new German law will be to cut off most of our trade {n pork. We have great respect for the German chemists, and if thoy have decided that borax is delete- rious then we must accept their gonelu- slons and protect ourselves from articles brought into this country that may be supposed to be treated with borax. BERLIN, March 22.—The German Gov: ernment’s contention on boracic meat, is stated, is not a protective tariff ques tion, but is simply in the interests of health. TIts exclusion rests with the.re- sults of experiments made by the Impe- rial Health Office. The United States Ag- ricultural Department will demonstrate to the Imperial Health Office that boracfc meat is not deleterious, and no political object will stand in the way of admitting it from America. Even some of the oppo- sition newspapers asume that the Gov- ernment takes this stand purely for health reasons. ——— BERESFORD’S SPEECH THREE KINDS OF “GAS” Colleague of Lord Charles Objects to the Rear Admiral’s Severe Criticism. LONDON, March 22—Rear Admiral Lord Charles Beresford's outspoken criti- cism of the methods of the British Ad- miralty, since his return to England, has created & great stir in naval circles and is generally commended by the press. One of his colleagues, however—Vice Admiral Penrose Fitzgerald—has written to the Times a striking criticism of Lord Beresford's utterances. Referring to his Lordship's speech before the London Chamber of Commerce, March 14, Admiral Fitzgerald characterizes it as “all gas, brilllant gas, Incandescent gas, If you will, but still gas." Admiral Fitzgerald maintains that the Admiralty is quite able to meet an inter- national emergency. He admits that some minor reforms may be desirable, but says: “It {s not necessary to upset the coach because one of the wheels want greasing, nor is It desirable to wash our dirty linen in public, supposing we have any."” ADVERTISEMENTS.
