DRIVEN FROM QFFIC
E
BY DIVORCE CASE
LONDON, July IB. Knglnmt Is
luivlns lots of troublo thc?n day
trylnjr to dccldo Just how fur tho
prlvnto conduct of a public min ef
fects tho vnluo of his service to tho
stnlo. On top of tho recent turmoil
over tho dealing of Chancellor of the
Exchequer Lloyd George and Attor
ney General Sir Ilufus Isaacs In A"u
erlran Marconi shares, conies tho raio
of tho brilliant Liberal, Cant. Kllot
Grawshny-WIUllftms, until a short
tlnio npo member of parliament for
Leicester:
When Hubert William Carr-Gomm
also a Liberal, representing the Lon
don district of Hothcrhltho In parlia
ment, whose young and beautiful
wlfo had been ono of tho most popu
lar members of English society,
brought suit for divorce, he named
Crawshay-Wlllfams as co-respondent.
Purely In deferenco to publln ntiln-
lon and to precedent Crawstuiy-V II
llams at onco resigned.
Crawshay-WIUIams's peculiar creed
lias produced widespread public dl
tmsslon, It Is altogether unlikely that
ho will bo ablo to break down past
traditions. A noto of tragedy Is ad
ded to tho case In tho fact that ho Is
a man of strong ambitions as woll
ns of 'signal ability. Only thirty,
four years of ago, and havln,; been
parliamentary secretary to tho chan
cellor of tho exchequer, his early pro
motion to tho ministerial banch wns
practically assured, but tho divorce
suit undoubtedly means kui iclltlcnl
extinction.

WASHINGTON, D. C, July 1G.
Although being scientists they
scorned tho superstition, somo of Un
cle Ram's best weather sharps curi
ously enough marked down today's
brand of weather for referenco dur
ing tho next two score days.
This is St. Swlthln's Day. ancient
English legends havo It that It It
rains today thero will bo forty days
of rain to follow, and that if it re
mains clear, thero will follow forty
days of .clear weather. There was a
St. Swithln all right, back In tho
days of long ago and tho legend is
older than tho hills. That seems to
bo as far ns it goes, for ono of tho
ruthlessly unromantlc weather bu
rcau sharps today looked up tho done
for the sarao day for twenty years
back, and bad this to say:
"St. Swithln falls In a month in
which moro rain falls hero in Wash
Ington than during any other period
of tho year. Nevertheless, tho record
snows mat. taking tho average for
twenty years, of the forty days which
follow July IB, tho greater part wero
rainy when St. Swlthln's Day was a
flno old day. Thero never have been
forty consecutive days of rain or
clear weather following St. Swlthln's
Day, as far as I can learn."

figure in the wide spread campaign
of tux resistance ns n part of the
woman suffrage crusade is the Duch
ess of Dedford Following her re
fusal to pay taxes, tho government
levied ojj the Princes Skating Club
of which she is the owner.
"My reason for resisting tho pay
ment of n property tax," she ex
plained today, "is that I consider it
unjust that women should have to
pay taxes when they have no band
or voice in the making of the laws
which enforce them. I nlso wi-di it
to be known that in spite of the tac
tics adopted by the Women's Soeial
nnd Political Union, I am not de
terred from declaring myself in
favor of modified woman suffrage.
There are ninny women in favor of !.'
tho franchise who hnve not given the
movement any public
they do not wish to
militancy. By this holding bnck they
lend support to tho impression that
there is no great demand among wo
men for tho imnchisc. there nrc
alf-o many women who Jinvo not stud
ied the question nt all nud who as
sociate it only with the brenking of
windows nnd tho burning of houses.
If these women went into the study
of womnii suffrage they undoubtedly
would become ardent crusaders fur
the cause."

When Hud Anderson nnd Leach
Cros faced each .at 3:30 p. in. on
the Fourth of July, tho agreement in
to weight, rules of infighting, breaks,
etc., were exactly what both men wen
Mippohed fo like. C'ros is supposed
to be ns dangerous at clone fighting
as any lightweight in the gamo nnd is
just about as rugged us Hud, nud one
nnd one-half inches taller, so where
Hud was at a disadvantage because
of nny agreement signed by Donald
in regard to the clean breaks it is
hard to see.
Hud, nor nnv of Donnld's friends
give him credit for knowing ns much
about tho game as n Tim McGrnth,
"Rawhide" or "Spider" Kelly, but
Hud hns said on more. than one oc
casion that ho will win the champion
