By Henry Wood. Rome. June 20. The "black world" of Rome is once more to come Into its pwn. "an own" that at one time mads It the most famous and the most bril liant society to be found in any court In Europe. The steps Just taken to this end constitute the latest of the the right to ' cast, their ballots in municipal elections. Although the measure was lost by a L -. . - M .A.

Lady Aberconway had lnr mind the note worthy circumstances that this most reactionary legislative body In the wcrld'had seen fit to devote two whole days to an earnest and serious con sideration of the question, rather than the result. Lord Selborne's purpose was merely to attract attention to the subject, and incidentally to emphasise ttie fact that the leaders of the. house of commons, more than a majority of whose members last year were pledged to vote for woman suffrage, tricked the women by not letting the measure reach ths voting stage. Party rises Obliterated. It was the first time in history that the lords had even discussed the sub ject. A significant feature of the re sult, from the suffragist's standpoint was the fact that party lines were ob literated.. The1 bill. Introduced by a unionist, was admittedly a Unionist measure. The present municipal fran chise for women being based' on prop erty qualifications, the natural pre sumption Was that the Unionists would benefit by this addition of a million electors. Tet the votes In favor of It were about equally divided between Liberals and Unionists. The position of the men advocates of the suffrage, whose seal for the cause has not diminished by the reign of' militancy, whlcb they heartily con demn! is indicated in a statement made by the Earl of Lytton, the Conserva tive peer whoae own slater, a follower of the Pankhursts, Is now a confirmed Invalid as the result of her prison ex periences. "I have every reason to detest the action of the militants," said Lord Lytton, "because that policy makes in finitely harder the task in which I hove been engaged. It has been my painful experience to be brought very ( lonely in contact with the .result of the militant movement. I have Been the sacrifice of health, the sacrifice almost of life Itself, of some -who are very dear to me.

V When the Italians In 1871 wrested Rome from the popes and made it the capital of their new United Kingdom of Italy, Pope Pius IX Inaugurated a policy of perpetual protest. This" his followers have ever faithfully adhered to. As far as the pope himself was concerned, tie locked himself up in the Vatican and has ever since remainea there, a voluntary prisoner. As re gards the long list of historic noble families residing at Rom and for cen turies previous dependent on the church for their grandeur and great ness, they too, at the request of the pope, went into mourning and protest. In contrast to this "black world" cf the old noble, papal families, the fol lowers and supporters of the new king of Italy established for them selves a "white world" of society. As the former more and more sank Into oblivion of its self-imposed protest, the latter grew more and more bril liant. A few of the old papal families, unable to exist without something of the Bocial brilliance In which their an cestors had participated for centuries past, came over and Joined the "white world." The majority, however, re mained faithful to- the mandate of the pope. Now, Just when the Id "black soci ety" seemed all but to :iav ceased to exist. Pope Pius has lifted- every re striction nd at one bound the "black world" has been rejuvenated if not actually recreated. The new order of th.ngs was Inaugurated at the first of ficial reception given by Count de la Vlnaza, th new Spanish ambassador to the papal court, and his wife. It took place in the magnificent Span ish palace, the permanent ' seat of the embassy in the Piazza dl Spagna, and which, during the centuries of the old order of t lings was the seen of some of the most brilliant social gatherings in the world. For the first time In 40 years, the high dignitaries of the papal court, as well a s the officers of the various pontifical military corps, appeared at this function in official dress and decorations. Until th occasion of this function no members of the Vati can corps or Vatican court h(d for 40 years, ever worn the uniform or of ficial dress outside the Vatican -walls. The guests also Included tie largest list of cardinals that has attended any social function in Rome since 1870. Although the reception- under the new order of things marked the close of the Roman social season for this year, no secret is made of the fact that the "black world" is preparing for the surprise next fall that is Intended to eclipse entirely the headway al ready made by the "white world" at Rome. In the midst f the general surprise occasioned by this new order of things no secret is made that at least amongst members of the "black world" the greatest portion of the surprise comes from the fact that Pope Plus .j.-yv-.-n.:-.--'.

Japanese Conceal News of Epidemic Travelers Bay Tbat Typhus Is aging in Tokyo, But Beports Have Been Suppressed by Officials. Pekin, China, June 20. How effect ively the Japanese government con trols the dissemination of news, partly through subsidized news agencies and partly through censorship. Is Illus trated by the fact that European and American papers have contained little ! or no Information 'of the typhus epi demic which has been raging in Japan for the last three months. While the mortality from typhus has been ex ceeded only by that from the plague and its eradication is fully as diffi cult, the world has been kept in ig norance of the present frightful health conditions in Japan, merely in order to protect the country's tourist indus try. Travelers returning here from Japan say that typhus is epidemic in many cities In" Japan, and that numerous cases of the plague have appeared. Ihe United States official public health report for April states that in Febru ary typhus became epidemic' In Tokyo and that from March 20 to April 6 1750 cases were reported. The report for May states that from April 18, to April 27 seventeen plague cases and 2820 typhus cases were reported In Tokyo. These figures, it is believed, under state the situation, as, according to the United States health reports, the Japanese have reported many typhus cases as typhoid. Commenting upon the porgress made In England In the past few years by the women's movement. Lord Lytton observed: "It has been phenomenal, unprece dented and unparalleled by any other political movement In the countrys' history. In no other movement has there been shown such real, enthusi asm and spiritual force. Wherever women have been organized for trade, profession or occupation they have ex prewsed themselves in favor of woman Suffrage. On hundred and seventy nine city or town councils or other municipal bodies have oetitloned for tli extension of female , franchise to! mc parliamentary vote; also 60 trade ccwnclr-and 36 trade unions, and the principle is now supported by the La bor and Independent Labor parties, which embrace the whole field of the working classes of the country. "Th National Union of Woman Suf . rage societies (the constltulonal or ganisation) has 480 affiliated societies with 63,000 subscribing members, a total of 100,000 avowed supporters, and a yearly income of $225,000. In their pilgrimage from all parts of Enrland to London last year they held 480 meetings and collected more than $40,000 from sympathisers en route. The Women's Social and Political union (th militants) has 15.000 adher ents, and an Income of $180,000. They held regularly from 200 to 800 meet ings a week the year round. Alto Rtther, S000 petitions for woman suf fr, ge have been pressnted to parlia ment, representing more than a million nmes." In Lord Lytton's opinion, these sta tistics are quit sufficient to refute the oft repeated statement by oppo nents of woman sufrfage In England tbat there Is no real demand on the part of the women of the country to vot. Government Owned Roads Troublesome Italy Tlnds Sn Has Been Carefully Burtarlmr Serpent in Bosom Real isation Comas With Proposed Strike. Rome, Jun 20. Italy has Just dis covered Viat in its carefully nurtured system of government owned railways it has been harboring; in its bosom a serpent that not only can, but may. at any moment, turn and sting it to death. ihis rather uncomfortable realization came about as the result of the recent threatened strike of th 145,000 em ployes who now draw salaries from, the state through their railway connection. The latter suddenly crystalixed very mucn 11 Re a hostile army in the very heart of th country. In. fact they gav ample demonstration that they could do more towards reducing Italy to quick starvation and surrender than an outside invading army of the same else could possibly hope to do. Thanks to th vigorous measures taken by the government, th threat ened strike did not get further than the talk stage. Tet, before it was fin ally called off, Italy was forced to re; alize that she has created within her self a power that can rise at any mo ment and by paralysing the entire in dustrial life of the country - paralyze also the govlrnment itself. should have been responsible . for this change. The election of Pop Pius, a man of peasant origin, has ever been resented by the noble families of tie Roman patriciate. From the very mo ment of his elevation they had more than a presentment that he would be the death toller of all that one bril liant phase of Vatican life in which they had participates and which in fact- had been supported to tie last degree by Pope Leo XIII, who himself was of noble origin. Must Pay Third of Income in Taxes London. June 20. Uirder the new scheme of taxation Introduced by David Lloyd-George, chancellor of the exchequer, in his budget for 1914-15, a man having an income from a capital of $5,000,000 will have to pay one third of his Income in taxes. In the first place he has to pay 28 cents on every $5 in income tax; then he has to pay a similar amount in supertax, and when he dies $1 on every $5 of what is left bas to be paid for death and estate duties. The total is figured at Just under one-third of the income. By Karl H. von Wiegaad. Berlin, June 20. The end of the school term in Germany has again been marked with the psychological problem and annual manifestation which has confronted school author! ties and government for years the in evitable epidemic of suicides of school children. Again the stiff annual spring exami nations have literally proved th "hari kari" for boys nervously broken down by overstudy under the tremendous pressure of th German school svstem. These boys preferred death to the re proaches of father and mother aad th gibes of their companions because they xauea. - ' Driving sons to Beats. Just how many families have din covered too late that they were driving their sons to death by their soadina. their threats if they did not pass, their reproaches because the boys did not learn faster, and daily upholding be fore, them that they would be the dis grace of their parents if they failed, is not yet known, as all the returns are not in. The number, however, is said to be in excess of laat spring. In Berlin Hans "Jirjahn, aged 18, failed to pass In high school and promply fired the contents of an auto matic pistol into bis chest The same day the 15-year-old son of a printing bouse proprietor : threw himself in front of a train at the Jannowits sta tion and was ground to death. In the pocket of his coat was found a note. It read : "I failed. I cannot go home." That same afternoon the body of a boy, aged 17, son of a clerk in the city council, was fished out of the river Spree. He, too, had failed in his ex amination. In no country is education th "gate," in fact the only entrance, to employment, occupations and profes sions, as ' in Germany. Almost very occupation or calling except menial work Is barred to. all except those who have succeeded in obtaining the on year certificate or diploma, which en titles the holder to serve but one year in the army, instead of two and to a large extent-practically determines his social and economic chances fdr the future. Suicides STamber Tlfty. xne suiciaes, which some years have numbered as high as fifty, are attributed by physicians and The cause of th suicides, which some years have numbered as high as 50. are attributed by physicians and authorities on th subject to several causes. Chief among these are over study, exaggeration of the disgrace of failure in examinations, the foolish ness and lack of consideration on th part of parents in telling their children that failure spells mental and intel lectual Inferiority, and too little at tentlon paid, to physical training. Privy Councillor Adolf Mathlas, a specialist on the subject, said that suicides of schoolboys were fearfully on the increase. He. conr! 'ered that the cause and fault was vr.i, the par ents rather than with the schools. One thing, he said, which teachers and par ents often fail to recognize and under stand is that children. who are slow to acquire book knowledge 1. school and In that respect appear stupid, often are the moat sensitive and impression able and required delicate and oenslbl handling. He added that these very children often prove most successful later in Ufa. Tlsit sf World Tourists Creatss Interest Taat Predicts access . for ZitUtt Tentare. Paris. June 20.

Possessed of vast estates and a bank roll of such huge dimensions that he need never worry about th pursuit of the nimble dollar, Lord Howard de Walden is devoting his talents an time to maintaining the reputation of being the most versatile peer in Great Britain.

London, June 19. Maybe you've had days when you were quit young In which you wished you were a king. Nothing to do, you know, except wear ermine and wave a sceptre, and gener-i ally behave as though oil had just been struck in the cow pasture. Well, having seen two kings and a pair of queens In action, any such no tion I may have entertained has flown from me. It's a wearisome, boring, leg-deadening job to be a monarch. I'm not In the confidence of the royal family, but I'll venture its members run a higher average of yawns per capita than any other clan In England. This notion that a. limited monarch enjoys the limit of monotony came to me first when I saw . the king and queen of Denmark riding through the streets in on of th royal processions. It happened that I was so placed as to.se a great deal of what went on. The procession Itself paled the In effectual glories of the world's five greatest shows. What with the Horse Guards, jingling in sliver armor 'down s tracts lined with a vividly red sol diery upon the blackest, sleekest horses that ever shimmered under London's pale lemon sun, and the six horse carriages of state in which the great folk rode, th near horse in each pair ridden by a wigged and velvet jacketed postillion, and the dancing banners of England and Denmark overhead, th color show was insplr itlng. Then I began to get behind the scenes.' -; . A JKik and .Xis Pip. In a crested and cushioned automo bile which preceded the state carriages sat one of the royal -.dukes, all alone. Ho held in his teeth- an enormous briar pipe, All . the lines 4n his face ran downward. His machine stopped for a second, and he withdrew that pipe and inspected it solemnly, and with a I jook oi unuiiemun wo ueciuea mat Being Natural With a Ruler Is a Very Difficult and Awkward Job.

So that, just as the car purred softly on. h put It back in his mouth as th only available re ceptacle, and resumed his pose of pa tient suffering. . Their majesties of Denmark came next. King Christian of Denmark is a tall, good-looking,- athletic chap, who smiled and bowed all along the route as though he were running for office. And. in some degree, that is what every king in Europe is doing just now. Unless Fleet street opinion is in error, each of these limited mon arch s is making a bid for personal popularity - in these times, when thrones are no more sacred than they have been In days past. Th alder men of Holborn presented King Chris tian and his queen with a golden cas ket in which were assurances of dis tinguished esteem. He was fairly en thusiastic about it And then, for a moment after reentering his carriage, the mask slipped. Never bav I seen such an expression of forlorn, hopeless, unmitigable boredom as appeared on the face of this brilliant young mon arch, riding in" a glittering carriage between throngs who sometimes re. membered to cheer. . Xing-Gorg Was Bored. After all. King , Christian is young and by that fact still resilent. The true tragedy of reigning-came to me that . night, when X saw 'King George and Queen Mary entertaining their majesties of Denmark at the opening of the military tournament at the Olympic. They sat in a nice," prim, uninterested line in the royal - box. Now and then they smiled automatical ly. Occasionally a look of animation crossed King Christian's features. He being still young, as has been re marked. It looked as though he had caught sight of a particularly good looking girl in the boxes below. The two queens had their heads together a good part of the time, whispering in each other's ear. , If they were not swapping scandal they belied their appearance. And at the end of the row sat King George, gorgeous as a peacock, in gold lace and epaulets and orders aid hopeless ly apuaeuc javery roi nirees innv Kins; George .would be a good fellow if his job gave him a chance to be. But practically for the whole of their stay in the royal box he sat there si lent, staring dimly 'ahead, the puffs of fatigue under his eyes, parentheses of uninterest deep cut on either side of the monarchical nose. Tou see,' about all that he has to do is to change clothes and eat, and ride in the grand entrance. -, , , Royalty Cant Salax. - I became engrossed in. the . pursuit of royalty. Therefor, I went to Al dershot, , where 95,000 troops played at sham battling, and played at it very badly, according to critics. The .king and queen were to review the troops there, and I was able to get near enough to see them do it. Perhaps it Was Imagination " on my part, but it seemed as though they pumped up ani mation, by a plainly visible effort. A regiment would pass by. bands playing. horses . prancing, . a - thousand khaki clad knees bending as one, a thousand right arms : swinging with the route step, a thousand bayonet points catch ing the sun. The king and queen would lean forward, simulating intense -inter est. They couldn't be. They have been fed tip" on regiments from the tlm of their respective royal kilts. They By were unable to maintain the race and by each would lean back, and that curtain of utter lack of Interest would fall over them. They seemed to need a rewinding for each regiment And that isn't all. To be a'relsnin monarch nowadays demands a certain muscular endurance. : The kins- and queen walked over th Aldershot field ana so did I; and by and by my heels began to throb, and th dust settled in my ears, ana I went back to town.

A battle royal is on here between tyrant Style and long suffering Fltness-of-Things, and after a look over the field of actions it Is Impossible to tell which will ultimately win. Pierre Loti, th famous author, and th Duchess d'Uses, a 400 leader here, so to speak, are the latest re cruits to the Fitness army. They hav just signed a protest against the mode as it is. Pierre Loti said, explaining his action: "For the first time in my life can I say frankly that feminine styles ap pear to me positively hideous.- Re treating bosoms prominent stomachs. pointed sacks hanging from the hips pyramids of hair piled on the head to make it look like a large pear: "hor rors and profanation!" As for th Duchess d'Uses, she lays half the blame on the husbands.

But don't blame it all on the women, because if the styles as they are did not suit their husbands, I am pretty sure that they would be modi fled in short order. For once Paris professes to be really shocked at her own creations waists cut xtremely low, skirts slit extreme ly high, materials thin and clinging, colors barbaric and clashing. The newspapers have taken the matter up and urge that unless the French de signers come to their senses, the Amer leans will capture the style monopoly and keep it. Priests for the Italian Emigrants Fop Fins Establishes a Collar At Horn for Education of Clergymen to Follow Italians to America. Rome. Jun 20. Italian emigration to the United States has now become so large and so ever-increasing that its spiritual welfare is Qereafter to become a permanent part of th Vati can organization at Rom. Pope Pius, who in the past few years, nas instituted several oeparx ments for the benefit and assistance of emigrants, has recently established a permanent college at Rome for th education of prieats who ar to de vote , the remainder of their lives to work amongst th Italian emigrants In America, The course in this college wilh-cover a period of two years, and Pop Pius has ordered that th most important study b tbat of English. Ho believes that the only way In which the Italians migrating to the United States can b kept in church Is through the influence of priests of their own nationality, but priests who are so thoroughly familiar also with the English language and American customs that they will be able to look after their parishioners as the latter, because of their nnfamillarity ''with the language of their newly adopted country, cannot do for themselves. Emigration figures presented to Pop Pius, and which were largely re sponsible for his establishing the new college, show that at the present time Italian emigration to in two Ameri cas aggregate half a million a year. From 100,000 to 200,000 return to Italy each year, but' Pope Plus has decided the numbers remaining Justify special ly trained priests to look after their welfare in America.
