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

unionist, was admittedly a Unionist
measure. The present municipal fran

erty qualifications, the natural pre
sumption Was that the Unionists would
benefit by this addition of a million

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

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

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

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.

Again the stiff annual spring exami

pressure of th German school svstem.

reproaches because the boys did not

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

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

employment, occupations and profes

xne suiciaes, which some years

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

By Herbert Corey.
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.'

. 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. .

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

crossed King Christian's features. He

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
