LONDON HAS SCARE FROM BOMB SQUADS Militants Put in a Busy Day Terrorizing the English Capital. (National News Association) LONDON, May 16. This was a busy day for the militant suffragette bomb squad. A watchman in Weatboura park discovered a suspicious looking object on a bench and, upon examination, .Jt proved to be one of the now famous suffragette infernal machines. It was composed of a glass tube tiled

with gunpowder and shot. It had a fuse attached, but was not lighted. Attached to the bomb was a .card upon which was written: "Give as rotes and we will give you peace." Another bomb was discovered upon the steps of the Rotherhithe, the public library. The bomb was wrapped in a copy of the Suffragette, the official organ of the women's social and political union. While its make-up was dangerous It was not contrived so as to explode.

Rotherhithe, or Redriff, is a quarter of London on the Surrey side of the Thames. Another glass-cased bomb was placed in the. postoffice at Wandsworth, asuburb of th. city. It contained a powerful explosive and slugs. A card bearing the suffragette's colors and the inscription: "Votes for women," was attached to It. Scotland Yard Officials have begun to take hope from the fact that the militants apparently lack the nerve to jeopardize human life by exploding one of their bombs. Suffragette bobs containing dynamite or other explosivves susceptible to concussion, have been left In exposed places where they might have been set off by carelessness or oversight, nevertheless the women have taken precaution to pre- . vent explosions. The bombs containing clockwork attachments and detonators, were us- ; ually fixed so that an explosion would be averted, while Scotland Yard men

say some of the machines containing

powder and fuses were dampened so

that there could be no ignition. However, these assurances have not allayed the public fear. The belief ia general that "the women will yet comjmit an outrage which may cost dearly in human life' The detective division of Scotland jYard, which has ben busy gathering evidence to be used against the six militant leaders and their male ad

herents, haw made interesting discoveries as to the complete organization of the women's social and politlDoes Backache Worry You? 8om Richmond People Have Learned How to Get Relief.

DIES AT INFIRMARY George Westlake, 68 well known, in this city, died yesterday at the county Infirmary to which institution he had been committed by the township trustee after he had refused to go to the Reid hospital. Westlake has been supported by the township for several years. He was taken to the infirmary last week by Probation Officer Elizabeth Candler. Mrs. Candler was forced to give him drugs on the way to the infirmary. Recently when Westlake made application to the trustee for transportation to relatives he was refused and rea.uested to return to the infirmary where he could be cared for. His relatives were unable to care for him, the officials said.

WHO IS RECTANUS? NONE OTHER THAN CHAS. WESTON

One of the most picturesque figures, interesting characters and best players in the billiard world today ia Oliver S. Rectanus. born in Pittsburgh, Pa., on June 6, 1876. But who is Mr. Rectanus? ..ever heard of such a billiard player. Of course not. But you have heard of the deeds, versatilities and eccentricities of Charles (Cowboy) Weston, and Weston is none other than Rectanus, or Rectanus Weston whichever way you will have it. And if you ask the Sioux Indians on the reservation at Pine Ridge. South Dakota, if they ever heard ot Weston or Rectanus, they will answer, "Not"

But they have heard of Charley Wauui i -be-leka, which, translated, is Charley ; t-agle. This was Weston's Indian cognoman, the famous cowboy having for years lived with the Sioux at Pine Ridge, where he learned their tongue and became a favorite with the tribe. Later he was appointed an interpre-

He will play for the title before many moons, and it will take De Oro, at his best to stave him off. Will the Cuban beat him?

Whan Buttons Wars Big. Bachaumont writes In his "Secret

Memoirs," Nov. 18, 1786: "The mania for buttons is today extremely ridiculous. They are not only of enormous size, some of them as big as six pound crowns, but miniatures and pictures are made upon them, and this ornamentation is extremely costly. Some of them represent the medals of the twelve Caesars, others antique statues and still others the Metamorphoses of Ovid." Isabey, in his biographical notes, says that when he came to Paris he worked for a living by making copies of Vanloos and Bouchers on the lids ot snuffboxes and that for these medallions he was paid from 6 to S francs each. "As it was still the fashion," he said, "to wear buttons as big as a five franc piece, upon which Cupids, flowers and landscapes were cut in cameo, I went into that business. I got 12 sous for each."

has religiously clung to it

As told in the opening paragraph of the story, Weston came into the world in 1876. That makes him 37, an age when a billiard player should be at his very best. Weston defeated Thomas A. Hueston of St. Louis, then the reigning mon arch among pocket billiard experts, for the world's championship emblem in Weeghman's room at Chicago on April 3, 1909. The score was 800 to

763, the cowboy winning to the utter surprise of the cue fans by 37 points. In- May, the same year, Weston suc

cessfully defended his title against Horace (Jesse) Ledn of St. Louis at Harry Davis' rooms in Pittsburg. The score was 800 to 531, and Leon never had a chance. Weston being at his best and running away from the challenger. Now comes the saddest story in Weston's life his loss of the championship to Johnny Kling, the famous ballplayer-billiardist of Kansas City. The writer does not recall the exact date of the match, but it was in the fall of 1909, and the occasion marked the opening of Kling's big room in

Kansas City. To make a long story short, they got alon gtoward the finish with Weston leading by a fair margin while the audience rooted hard, for Kling to catch

him. At this point Kling put in a good i

Heart Burials. The burial of the heart separate from the body and In another place is an old custom, common in Europe when the heart was supposed to be the center of the affections and the will. Robert Bruce wished his heart to be buried In Jerusalem and Intrusted it to bis famous friend, "the black Douglas." who was killed before he could fulfill the mission. The hearts of the Hapsburg rulers of Austria are kept in 6ilver caskets in thj chapel of the Loretto in Venice, and the hearts of the rulers of Bavaria are similarly preserved apart from the bodies.
