MOTHER, VICTOR, RESTS FOLLOWING BATTLEFOR SON British Courts Decide Boy Is of Legitimate Birth. Bv Times Special LONDON, Sept. 10.—In a quiet country cottage, many miles from London, the Hon. Christabei Russell is resting up after winning one of the greatest fipflits ever put up by a mother for her son. The British courts have decided that her flve-year-old son, Geoffrey Dennis Erskine Russell, is the legitimate issue of her marriage to the Hon. John Hugo Russell, heir to the barony of Ampthill. Thus in due course Geoffrey will become Lord Ampthill, with a seat in the House of Lords. And thus ends a four-year legal fight between Mrs. Russell, on one side, and her

husband and his proud, aristocratic family on the other—one of the bitterest fights in British legal history. Wants to Forget “All I want now is to forget,” Mrs. Russell told friends before she left for the country—“to forget and to bring Geoffrey up oblivious to the fight that has been waged about him.” Geoffrey's birth in 1921 started the fight. The mother and father had been estranged nearly a year before. The father opened divorce proceedings. declaring that he was not the father. Fortunes in the fight varied; the case was taken from court to court. The proud Ampthill family threw all its resources on the side of the father—over $200,000 altogether they spent in trying to discredit the mother and prevent the child from being declared the heir to the title. Finally the House of Lords, the highest authority, refused to grant a divorce to the father. Formal proceedings were brought by the mother to have the child declared legitimate, and this time without a fight the child was pronounced to be the lawful Issue of young Russell and his wife. Now only death can prevent the baby boy from one day taking his seat in the House of Lords. Insane Husband This fight, though the latest, Is by no means unique in the British peer-

age. though perhaps the opposing sides went further than their piede* cessors in attacking each other. Another aristocratic British boy—-the\o-year-old Marquess Townshend —owes his title td the fight his mother made against efforts to declare her husband of six months insane. She and the late Marquess were married in 1905. Half a year later, the Marquess was found Insane. The Marchioness determined to restore his liberty, and after a fight she did. The Marquess was declared to be capable of looking after himself, though incapable of managing his great estates, which it was ordered should be administered by crown officials. The Marquess was freed —and ten years later, when but for the fight made by his wife he would been branded a lunatic, the Marchioness gave birth to the present peer.

STUDY INSECT’S EYES Take Photographs Through Orves of Glow Worm*. Bit T'niteil Press LONDON, Sept. 10. —How well do insects see? The question was answered before the British Association for the Advancement of Science by Professor H. Elthingham at a recent meeting in Oxford. Glow worms, he found, have perfect vision. Dragonflies can also see aa clearly as men, and butterflies are able to see and recognize each other at a distance of three and a half feet. * Insects have eyes which enable them to see the ultraviolet rays which are Invisible to th ehuman eyes. The professor made his discoveries by using the eyes of insects as photographic lenses and taking pictures through the tiny insect eyes Instead of through the regulation phot<*graphlc lenses. The eyes of glow worms are only one fifty-thous-andth of a square milimeter in size. A picture of a man taken in this way through a glow worm's eye was projected onto a screen and showed the man’s figure with remarkable clearness.
