$10,00 or $20,000 or any sum with
in reason. I have powerful friends.
"I will not fight extradition. I
have no fear of a trial. I am willing

worse than a city jail.

and Ali'uai. George Mason, husband
of one of the daughters, was resumed
today before Justice Low in Hie Old
Bailey, where the prisoners are charg
ed with conspiring to murder Premier
Lloyd George and Arthur Henderson,
labor member of the war council.
Mrs. Wheeldon continued her testi
mony, ituplying to Judge Low, she
admitted that she often had express
ed the hope that the premier and Air.
Henderson would soon be dead. At
the moment of this expression, it
represented her wishes, she testified.
On being questioned whether the
poison which she previously iestified
hud been obtained to kill dogs would
not have been just as available to get
rid of Premier Lloyd George and Mr.
Henderson, the witness said:
"I did not desire it to lie carried
out. I never wished to take anybody's
life or to have, anybody's blood on my
conscience. That is why 1 ohected to
tile army taking conscientious objec
tors." Mrs. YVheeldon declared Hint (he
various occurrences which the crown
contends, fit in with its case, were all
coincidences. She said that the se
cret agent, Gordon, who had been in
troduced to her as n fugitive from the
police, had told her Premier Lloyd
Gcoi'gc was responsible for Lord
Kitchener's death because Mr. Lloyd
George was to have gone to Petro
grad, but the plan was changed two
hours before the time of departure
and the escort which had been ar
ranged for him was withdrawn.
SENATE ADOPTS
SECRET WIRELESS
NO FOLK, Va., March 0. Wen
United Stales Marshal Saunders took
possession of the liner Appuni, after
the break with Germany lie found
installed there n secret wireless ap
paratus by which all wireless nies
sages sent in this section of the coun
try were rend.
A fine wire was found strung be
.neath the pipe leading to the whistle
.on the smokestack of the Appam and
extending nbove it as do the regular
antennae of wireless. The wire led
to the interior of the vessel, where
dynamoes were kept running to make
the current for lighting the ship.
Investigation, it is said, led to the
discovery that the wire finally ran to
the room occupied by Lieutenant
Huns Berg, where the messages were
recorded by flashes from an -electric
light bulb.
The dynamo in the boiler room hud
been used to take the place of that
in the wireless room, which was put
out of commission when the United
Stales court took charge. Messages
could be sent and also received.
THICK, GLOSSY Hi
Save Vour Hair! Double Il Meanly
in a Few Moments
Try This!
If you care for heavy hair, that
glistens with beauty and Is radiant
with life; has an incomparable soft
ness and Is fluffy and lustrous, try
Dnnderlne.
Just one application doubles the
beauty of your hair, besides it im
mediately dissolves every particle of
dandruff; you cannot have nice,
heavy, healthy hair if you have dan
druff. This destructive scurf robs
the hair of Its lustre, Its strength
and Its very life, and if not overcome
it produces a feverishness and itch
ing of the scalp; the hair roots fam
ish, loosen and die; then the hair
falls out fast.
If your hair has been neglected and
Is thin, faded, dry, scraggy or too
oily, get a 23-cent bottle of Knowl
ton's Danderlne at any drug store
or toilet counter; apply a little as
directed and ten minutes after you
will say this was the best Investment
you ever made.
We sincerely believe, regardless of
everything else advertised, that if
you desire soft, lustrous, beautiful
hair and lots of It no dandruff no
Itching scalp and no more falling
hair you must use Knowlton's Dan
derlne. If eventually why not now?

being founded for the purpose of ef
fecting a social revolution, not thru
organization, as tho trade unionists

tho socialists desire, but through
direct action, of which they publicly
cited tho blowing up ot the Los An
