He Spoke in a Happy Way Hop- ing the Premiers Would Carry Away Agreeable Impressions of the Mother Country. London, May 9.--The king gave a dinner to the colonial premiers, minis ters and high commissioners at' Buck- ingham Palace. Several members of the royal 'family and a pumber of ca- binet ministers and disilbgished per- sons were present. The king gave a hearty welcome and wished prosperity and happiness to the distinguished statesmen from the over-seas domin- ions and trusted that they would carry away with them an agreeable impression of the mother eountry. He wished them God-speed on their jour- ney home. Tt is stated, unofficially, that the government has acceded to the wish of Australia to rescind her contribution of £200,000 to- wards a naval squadron for Australia. The commonwealth will equip and maintain its own navy. Bad Condition Of Malta, London, May 9.--The presence of the colonial premiers from all quarters of the globe has set some of them think: ing that Great Britain has one colony that is in rather a bad way. Nobody stops, generally, to think about it, even when the king and queen have been spending, some time there. We have a very vague idea of Valetta, and also of the existence of problems arising out of the mixed nature of the population of the little island that is all. To Maltese, Malta must have a rather sad appearance. An increasing population find its cultivable area con- tinually reduced for purposes of de- fence, Port Said is now the coaling station for all vessels coming home through the canal, and only vessels from the Black Sea and Asia Minor need coal at Malta: and moreover, an lightened fiscal policy encourages corn-growing in an island that should he devoted to other things. Vast Estates Of Great Britain. London, May 9.--M. Rankin Crans- ton, writing in the Craftsman, has some interesting comment on the housing problem, which is daily be- coming more acute in London, but the lack of accommodation is becom- ing prevalent, not only in city and town, but: in village and country, and the "home a movin' on," Mr. Crans- ton finds that most of the evils of overcrowding is due to the fact that much of England's small area is en tailed and cannot be sold, while that which may be bought is so valuable that few can afford to purchase even a tiny piece of it. The enormous es tates of the very wealthy are laid out as private grounds or kept as game preserves. The Duke of Westminster owns so vast estates that he has been prohibited by law to buy any more in England, and the Duke of Bedford is buying so much that he is likely before long to own the entire tv of Middlesex, including a consider able slice of London. coun- FORTUNE AT STAKE, Sells $1,500,000 Interest to Syndi- cate. - Santa Monica; Cal, May 9A stake of $0,000 played against a fortune of nearly 81,500,000, with a human life .as the final determining factor, are features of an unusual transaction entered into, yesterday, between Henry C. Keating and a syndicate composed of four local men. In about three years, if he lives, Keating will fall heir to $1,500,000 of an estate to be sdttled at that time, when the younger heirs will have be- come of age. The syndicate gave Keating $80,000 for his interest in the estate, taking the risk of losing the $80,000 if Keating died before the es tate is settled, as the other heirs then come into the whgle estate of $1,000, 000. Should Keating survive the set tlement of the estate, the syndicate will make $1,420,000, less the interest on the $80,000 and various legal fees. SHERIFF WENT MAD. ree After Hanging Dies From Physical Collapse. Greenville, S.C., May 9.--Out of his mind and raving about the hanging of a negro, Sheriff R. F. Mctaslin, of Greenwood county, died in Greenville, vesterday, from physical collapse. Three weeks ago "Joe" Evans ascend- ed the gallows to pay the penalty for having assaulted the wife of his brother and then killing the brother when the crime was discovered. : Evans was the first man to be hang- ed in Greenwood county. and it was the first execution in which Sheriff McCaslin had ever taken part. He had dreaded the idea of hanging the negro, and immediately after the mur- derer was | pronounced dead, he went to his bed, and never left it.

The house was given to the coun Yess in anticipation of her marriage to Count Spretti, to whom she was engaged at the time she met the gypsy musician, but now on the ground that her marriage to the musician makes her unworthy of belonging to the wtotics . family, her father, Count Paul Festetics, has revoked the gift.

Wilmington, Del, May 9.--The legis- lature + of Delaware has amended the laws on divorce so as to forbid star chamber proceedings in diyorce cases, and to require that argument be open. Publicity will prove one of the most effective means of preventing collision Letween the parties and will also act as a deterrent against the permanent separation of married couples who would shrink from the publicity of a trial and Yrobably be led on second thought to compose their differences The correct theory of law is that it should be openly administered.
