"When I go to my favorite haunts," she says, "I find new bungalows, with wireless aerials, and I have to step in the ditch while high-powered charabancs pass. Perhaps it would be better if we did not talk so much about the place, and we might keep the roads in so bad a state that mo- torists would avoid them. I re- member in the old days Sussex was cut off from the rest of Eng- land by a vast and impenetrable forest, full of bears, There is talk about the reforestration of England; could we not revive the old forest of Anderida and re- stock it with bears?"

INDIAN RAJAH PUNISHED FOR OONTINUED DISLOYALTY Delhi, India, Feb, 10.--The former Maharajah of Nabha has been deprived of his title, rights and privileges as a Maharajah, which expressly were accorded him, at his abdication in 1923, on con- dition that he remained loyal to the Government, It was officially stated that, in spite of repeated warnings, the Maharajah persisted in pursuing disloyal activities since his departure from Nabha, His allowance has been reduced from £25,000 to £10,000 (from about $125,000 to $50,000) a year, and he has been directed to take up residence until further notice at Kodaikanal, Madras, The former Maharajah was de- tained at Allahabad last night by the police, NOVELIST'S WILL NOT MADE PUBLIC Dorchester, Eng., Feb, 17.-- Among the Dorset people who knew Thomas Hardy, the great poet and novelist, it is ot anticl- pated that the total value of his estate. In spite of his world-wide fame and the large sale of his earlier books, will be large. The will has not been made public yet, : Hardy always lived very simp- ly, at the rate of considerably less than £1,000 a year, and his Dor- set friends will be surprised if it appears that his immense literary output brought him any propor- tionate material reward. Valuation has yet to be made of a number of assets, and it will take some time to arrive at the total value of the estate. Estl- mates of some of the assets--no- tably any unexpired coyprights there may be--are difficult to make, It is understood that there is Mothing of special pub- lic interest in the will, and that the bequests are of the personal nature that might be expected. His unpretentious mode of life in Dorchester gave his fellow townspeople the impression that he was a comparatively poor man, Even when age caused him to dis- card the bicycle which he rode for many years, he did not buy a car, When he made a journey by road he sometimes borrowed a big car owned by his brother Henry, the builder, and hired a chauffeur to drive it. The question of the most fit- ting memorial to Thomas Hardy in his native county is likely to lead to prolonged discussion, The latest proposal comes from Uni- versity College, Southampton, where it 1s suggested by Profes- sor A. A. Cock that a Chair of Literature should he founded in honor of Hardy. This proposal has been in the air for some years and was heartily approved, it {is sald, by Hardy.

Lever Brothers Limited, Toronto PIG, DOG AND MONKEY IN AUTO DAZE POLICE New Rork, Feb. 19.--Patrolmen | has made him a taciturn, "I guess and John Rogers, | we better pinch em." of the | So the two partolmen converg- "ed on the big black sedan in For- ty-eighth Street, Leaping to the running boards, they saw four young men, grave with liquor, one monkey, one police dog and one pig the latter decked out in tin- sel and ribbons. "Hm," said Officer Crehan to the driver, "where's your Ii- | cense?" "Hey," said Officer Rogers to the driver, "where's your license?" The driver looked supercilious nd said nothing. "To the station house," sald Officer Crehan. Once in the Forty-seventh Street Station, the four young men , the monkey, the pig and the police dog line up before Lieuten- ant Bernard McGowan, who was on desk duty, McGowan looked dour. The monkey, however, was not to be restrained for long. First he jumped to the shoulders of one of the young men, then he fell to the back of the pig. The pig re- sented this intrusion upon its comfort and proceeded to run and squeal, The police dog look- ed on. "Take 'emi all out here!" Me- Gowan shouted." "They're wreck- ing the place. Get 'em upstairs. It's a case for the detectives." Upstairs the driver, George Faust, of 529 Eleventh Avenue, told Detective Patrick Hardy the whole story. "I am a clerk in a cider mill--in other words a bar- tender in a speak-easy" he said, "and I was just giving my friends a little air before going home. What's the use of riding a long way when you can get. just as much air by going around the block?" "But the licenses?" asked Har. dy, "how about the license?" "Who said I didn't have a l- cense?" asked Faust. "Why, Crehan and Rogers, they said you didn't have a license." "They are in error," said Faust, tearing his license from his pock- et. "Why didn't they say they wanted my license?" Hardy looked over the slip and considered the matter closed. As for the monkey and the dog, they were explained as speakeasy mascots. 'The pig was said to be potential food. Believe it or not, this is the story as the police tol it at the West Forty-seventh Street Sta- tion. -- FEAR CONSEQUENCE OF AMALGAMATION British House Urged to Pre- vent Telegraph Com- London, Feb. 19--Commander Bel- lairs in the House of Commons asked whether in view of the interests in- volved in competition between the telegraph companies, the British Treasury would exercise similar pressure to prevent the amalgama- tion of such companies as the Treas- ury had done in the case of large banks of the Empire. He added that would the Chancellor bear in mind that there is a fear in the public mind that the action of the different governments concerned may be de- termined by their ownership of the Pacific Cable, concluding, "That is the danger we want to avoid.' Right Hon. Winston Churchill re- plied that the matter was being given attention in all its bearings, HISTORI SITE FOR PALATIAL HOTEL Famous Mansion Be National Monument London, Feb, 17--The largest and most luxurious hotel in the British Isles is to be erected on the site of Dorchester House here, which has been bought by a syndicate, it was learned. A deposit of $500,000 was paid on the purchase price of $2,000- 000, it is understood. Feeling that the famous mansion ought to become the nations property deputations have called on the Lon- don county council urging its ac- quisition as a national monument. Whether or not the county council will be ahle to do anything now is not known, Lady Beecham had pro- mised £300,000 of the required pur- chase price to buy the site for a national and imperial center of art, science, music and drama, but it is believed that the Syndicate's option forestalls purchase of the mansion by any other interest. "PREHISTORIC" TOOTH PROVED OTHERWISE New York, Feh, 19.--The "mil- lion-dollar tooth," or Hesperopithe- cus tooth, which was found in an ancient river bed in Nebraska in 1922 and put forward by scientists of the American Museum of Natu- ral History as proof that an ape- man, or forerunner of the human in America, has heen positively identified, it was learned today, as the tooth of an extinet wild pig. This tooth has been the subject of warm controversy in this coun- try and Europe for nearly six years. G. Elliot Smith and other distin- guished British anthropologists ac- cepted the tooth as proof that a sub-human or high anthropoid type had existed in the United States. It was thrown up to William Jennings Bryan frequently in the course of the evolution controversy because the ancient molar had been found in his State, CATCH IS CAUGHT BY LAKE ERIE ICE Dunkirk, N. Y., Feb, 19.--The fishing fleet of this Lake Erie har- bor tonight was faced with a prob- lem.

About ninety Masons and their ladies assembled when the members of the Doric Lodge No. 424, A.F, and A.M, entertained the ladies to a very leasant evening on Thursday night, in the lodge rooms.

Mr. Murkar has been a member of the session for many years, treasurer for twelve years and teacher of the Bible Class, as well.

Browns' con- dition was considered grave by the doctors who examined him. It is believed the bullet struck the ver- tebrae column and was fle! ned. At the time of his arrest the prisoner's | neck was covered by a poultice. He | claimed he was suffering with boils, | Brown is scheduled to appear for | preliminary hearing on February 21! on a charge of attempted murder, REFORESTATION PROGRAM TO OUT-DO CUT IN QUEBEC Quebec, Feb, 19--Within a few years, there will be an annual re- forestation of twice as many trees as are cut in this province. This was stated yesterday by Gustave C. Piche, chief of the Provincial For- estry Service, who was asked what plans his service had for reforestra- tion for the present year. He said tempts to raise the fish had ended in failure. Each net is estimated to contain from 200 to 500 pounds of fish, which cannot be raised | except from the decks of fishing, boats, No other plan of raising the nets is feasible, veteran fisher- men declare, because of the heavy weight. SOUTH PERTH, N.B., MURDER CONFESSED, POLICE REPORT Saint John, N.B., Feb. 19--Arthur Demerchant, who has been held in the Victoria County Jail at Andover for the last week in connection with the murder of Edward E.

Salt, commissioner of the New Brunswick Provincial Police. that it was hoped this year to plant some 3,000,000 saplings in the forests of this province. Last year there were 1,600,000 planted.

ANCIENT WARRIORS WORE BOBBED HAIR Explorations at Mentuho- tep Disclose Fighters With Flapper Clip New York, Feb. 19--Four thousand years ago, the men bobbed their hair, the Metropolitan Museum dis= closed in a report on explorations at the Temple of Mentuhotep, near Thebes. A sealed under-ground tomb dis- closed a party of 60 warriors slain in battle. All had a thick crop of hair, some wearing it in a square bob seen on many flappers today and others having it curled in tight ringlets close to the head. The Egyptian fighters had died, apparently, during an assault on a stronghold. Ebony tipped arrows had accounted for many, while others died from small stones, flung against their heads from a sling-shot with the velocity of a bullet.
