HOUSE OF COMMONS
Guard of Five Thousand Police
Evaded and Floor of the
House Beaohed
BATTLE CRY I8 SHOUTED
Astonished Legislators Were in'
the Midst of 0hildren’s
Bill Debate
LONDON, Nov. 6.-A woman suc-
cceded in passing the har of the house
of commons last week.
Evadlng all the police cordolls \\'hlch`
guarded every approach, Mrs. Travers
Symons broke in upon the sedate inh-
ors of the legislators, enKl=\8€l3 in 8 110'
llnte on the Chlldren‘s bill, shrieking.
"L:-avo off discussing the children and
talk about the women!" She was
speedily removed and turned into the
street.
This was the only success achieved
by the militant suffraglsts. But the
general aspect of Westminster palace
was that of a place undergoing a siege.
No fewer than 5,000 police were as-
sembled in its precincts, and cordons
of police barred or controlled all the
approaches.
About 7 p.~m. the crowd near West-
minster palace had increased in num-
ber, nnd its demeanor became unruly.
Once more the police were equal to
the occasion. By a succession of
clcvcr movements almost without the
uso of force, they broke it up and
drove it in various directions.
The Scene in the House
., was just before 8 o'clock --
while 5,000 police were guardingthe
house of commons from a Suffragetie
n.~suuli~tllnt one of the voteless \vo-
nn-u rllsllcd past all the barriers, got
tlllwlllgil lthe Inbby, PRS! the Officials
at the door of the chamber, rushed
on to the floor o`i' the house and
:lull shouted her battlecry in the
iuccs of the astonished mambers.
’l‘herl- were no.t more than forty
nlcmln-rs in the house at the time
ns it was dinner hour. The speaker
was in tllc chair at one end of the
house and the seargeant-at-arms in
his sent at the other. Mr. Herbert
Smnuci, under-secretary at the homo
office and the attorney-general for
lrellllnl were on the treasury bench.
Mr. Akers-Douglas was on the front
opposition bench, Mr. Watson Ruth-
erforti. a Unionist member was ad-
dresslllg the house on the Children's
hill. 'l‘hat was the situation when the
rather inl1ttentive`house received a
shock which for a second pr two
struck it dumb.
“ifotes for Women"
The long green benches are ranged
on either side of the floor. Entrance
lo tho floor is gained -by swing doors
from the inner lobby, and just inside
the swing doors on the rig-ht lg the
ul-at of the sergeant-at-arms. Almost
level with the seat of the sergeant-ab
nruls is drawn that imaginary line
llvrorlg the floor which constitutes the
bar of the house. _A few steps through
the swing doors, therefore, brings one
on to the bar and at the formal en-
trance to the house. By the side of
the swing doors are narrow windows
from the lobby, and through these
windows--or spyholel-lady visitors
are permitted lo :::1;.v at the members
within.
Just before eight dolce.. a lady was
src-n looking through one of these
windows. Suddenly she stepped from
it, rushed at tho swing doors, flung
thonl open, and dashed inside. She
uns a young looking lady, wearing a
creunl colored coat and a mushroom
hut. ller face was flushed, her arms
extended. Dashing madly forward,
sill- screamed as she' ran:
"l.cnve oft discussing the Children's
bill and give votes for women."
Sho had passed at her ilrstrnsh the
“il‘Scnllt-at-arnls, with ills sword at
his sitio. Parslyscd with amazement,
the house gazed on ther, and Mr. Wat-
-son Rutherford paused witll a half-
colnpleled sentence on his lips.
'l`lll- attendant who stands behind the
S°i'l:cunt_-at-arms was the ilrst to re-
mlin his presence of nlllld. He gave
vt-nt to a scandnllzod “Ohi" and

DUKE OF DEYONSHIRE
Duonl Party's Fail into Swimming
Bath-Six Hurt by
Collapse
LONDON, Nov. 6.-The Duke and
Duchess of Devonshire, Lord and Lady
Kerry nnd others of the ducal party
were lllvolvell ill a remarkable accl-
dent at Matlock, from which those
named escaped serious hurt, though
six other ladies and gentlemen were
injured. -
Tile duke had been presented with
an address of con-gratulatlon from the
West Derbyshire Unionlsts. The party
(with the exception of the Duke and
Duchess of Rutland and their daugh-
ters. -who left by motor car) after-
wards entered the Victoria hall, Mat-
lock, for tea. The swimming bath had
been emptied, and on a temporary
floorlng of planks laid across it on
trestles the tea 'tables were set. The
Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, Mr.
Henry Cavendish, Lord and Lady
Kerry, and other guests took their
SGMS. others crowded into the room,
and all the tables were occupied, while
many spectators looked down from the
balcony above.
Suddenly the flooring near the ducal
party collapsed, and fifty people 'were
thrown into the empty bath -below
amid a mass of planking, broken
crockery and streams of boiling tea
from the upset urns. Confusion
reigned for a minute, but the duke and
Lord Kerry showed great resource and
reassured the people. Ladders were
got, and soon all were rescued. As
stated, only six persons were offi-
cially notified as injured. though
others suffered shock:
Colonel Brooke-Taylor, badly scam-
adage the shoulder and cut about th,
Mr. J. S. Marsden Smedley, J.P.,
wounded under the ear. ~ ,
Mr. Dale, crushed.
Miss Williams, wounded on the
wrist. it
Mrs. Tom Barlow, badly hurt about
the neck and face. .
Miss Else, contused wounds. `
Councillor Robert Hall, an eye~wlt-
ness of the accident, says: "l sudden-,
ly srllv the floor collapse where the
duke-'s party was seated. There was
great consternation, and in the mass
of humanity, fifty ladies and- gentle-
men. I saw scrambling to KITS ‘feet tho
Duke of Devonshire, who in an instant
grasped the situation, and doubtless
saved any panic by raising. one arm
and calling out, ‘Be quiet! The cry
was echoed by the police, ahd several
of the imprisoned-party also behaved
with great courage, principally Lord:
Kerry, who tried to reassure the ladies
nl-ar him."
Other eye-witnesses state that Lady
Kerry narrowly escaped being crushed
by the falling woodwork.
'l`he duke was helped out by s, lad-
der. Though in reply to inquiry he
said that he felt all right and unin-
jured. he appeared to have been badly
shaken by the fall, which was from
six to eight feet. Lord Kerry also
said that _he felt all rlglht. Mr. Henry
Cavendish confirmed that the'duke

were uninjureli.

LONDON, Nov. 6.-Mme. Ciara Butt
and her husband, Mr. Konnsrley Rum-
ford, fulfilled a long-standing prom-
ise on Sunday .in singing solos and A
duet at the afternoon service in tho
chapel of Brixton gsol before 700
convicts.
Mme. Butt, who has recently return-
ed from Australia, gave our represen- f
tatlve the following impressions of not
experience in the gaol: ,
"I was very much affected by tho
idea of singing to those poor mon; l
not exactly nervous, but it was quits
pathetic to see how the nice ones 
seemed sad and ashamed to look up.
"The chaplain asked uv to sln¢ two
years ago, but we could not arrange it
before. He told us he had found the
influence of sacred music of the great-
est value as a means of reformation.
"I think the men liked ‘A-bids lWith
Me' best. They especially asked lhst
I should slug that hymn. They were
almost pllinflllly quiet and attentive
tllrougholli; it we-4 like singing to the
hllllll, they seems-ll to listen lo OICOFAY-
“lt is a droadflli thing to /ba shut
up like that, and we are only too s-lad
to think that we may have done somo-
thlng to help them." 1
Mme. Butt also sang "The Promlli
of Life" solo, and the "Nilhf Hymll
at Sea" as a duet with Mr. Romford, l
who gave “There Is a Green Hill FII.
Away" and "Nazareth," '
