LONDON, June II. A unvote at
tack with n hatchet tti inuilc today
by a touii mid sllishly gowned
suffragette on an attendant at thu
Dore gallery, who tried to prevent her
from destroying valuable pietureH on
exhibition there.
The womnn hml already ruined two

tlio heart of tho faxhionnblc quarter
of London, ami wiih hacking a third

She turned on thu man mid rained

verely injuring him. Other atteudnnts
overjiowereil her. She kicked nnd
screamed until she was turned over
to the police.
Militant Too Ladylike
A letter wns left in the jzullery by
the attendant's assailant, in which
he asserts militants heretofore have
been "loo ladylike' She added:
"To stop this, yoir must five us
justice. We are willing to die for it
before we site in. We have tried nil
other ways. Wo have been too lady
like in the past. Now we aro going
to fight mid you can allow us to bo
killed. Others will arise to take our
places. I have joined in the tvur."
One of tho pictures destroyed was

Doctor Assaulted
The suffragette today again as
saulted Dr. Francis Kdwnrd Forward,
medical officer of Ilolloway jail. Two
women nmied with horsewhips sprang
on to the doctor us he left tho prison
and were punishing him severely when
a isdieemun came to his rescue.
Tho women declared their action
was a "protest against the forcible
feeding for which this beast is re

A TOTAL FAILURE
DOlGliAS, Ariz., June X Crops
in the Vuipii Itiver t alley, which or
dinarily supply u large part of tho
foodstuffs used in the Mexican statu
of Souora, will be almost total fail
ures, aecordiug to reports received
here today.
Indian incursions nnd tho unusu
ally low water in the Ympii river havu
prevented agricultural pursuits being
conducted lu thu most satisfactory
ways.
Because of the scarcity of water,
it was reported farmers on irrigation
sen ices, have opened tho sluieo gales
and used nil the available supply, re
gardless of the spirit of coiibcrtntion
nnd tho rules of distribution. As a
result, n few furnis Iiavo received
mure water than they needed, while
the majority suffered fioni drought.
Another report received today was
that for the second successive year
the wheat ciop in the I'uiupu district
would bo a complete fuiluro uevqusu
of diought.
