? 8!ST!LLE?S R8MCE' WRTHER EmCE M CURIOUS EDINBURGH I ACTiOH Lord Dewar had again before him in ih.- Courts at Edinburgh, o.n Monday, the action by Mrs. Mary HusseJ1. or Mackenzie. of Duncars* f<u.rn<:ea, CGI,a¡"gow. to have it declared that. she was married by Mutual exchange of writings at Glasgow, in l9<)i, to Mr. I'h-oma.s Mackenzie, distillecr, of Carron, BanR'shire. and Duncarss, Bearsden. Mr. Mackenzie died in March, last, leaving estate, and plaintin, during hie lifetime was known as his II housekeeper. Defendants in the action wM-e the l executors o[ deceased. The evidence con- sindcd 0:1 Monday with & witness &aU€d  i<'r the deicnec Mrs. Mary Milk-r, nurse, stated that sh-e attended Mr. Matkcnzie in 1901, when IH wm, euSering from pneumonia. A'trs. Russell was his On a later visit witQe6e begaBL to suspect that Mrs. Russell was than a housekeeper. In 1905 'Aitn2S.S called on Mrs. Ruesell, who told her of the contract between her and Mr. Mackenzie, which witness understood tu Ite a <'ontract of marriage. She 'also understood the contract 6tated that in the event of Mr. Mackenzie's death Mrs. HGsscll would be provided for and would ho all right. Witr.,cx- thought Mrs. Ruasell said the document wz.s in an en- velope, which was to be opened at Mr. }b-kcnÚe.'s death. Mrs. Ru.'ssell always hoped that she would be recognised as Mr. Mackenzie's wife. and eajd that he had led her to understand that it would be &o. Witness had said to her that she would not come back unless she could not again Look on Mrs. Russell 's distress. Bv the Court: WTiat did vou mean by I that? W] tness: I knew the way she was l placed, and the false position she Iield. Sh" was in one room sorrowing for her child and the child was in the next room playing with Miss Mackenzie- Witness cou!d not bear to eee the poeitdon. Cr,)L,e,.K-,xn-iined, witness said she formed the impression, that Mr. Mac- kenzie was very much attached to Mrs. who was a gentle, shy woman. while he was a domineering kind of man. gathered the imprc.s6ion that there had been a kind of secret marriage. She wa<s told that Mr. Mackenzie had written, and that Mrf;. Ru-seell had written. Mrs. Russell looked forward to being openly married. Mr. Mackenzie wanted her to be educated, and'when that was accomplished witness understood Mrs. Russell was to be openly married to him. That concluded the evidence, and coun- sel addressed his lordship. JudgHMnt was rsserved.

A REMARKABLE SIORY mEMEO GERMAN AM8 DMMAI!SrS ILLNESS The recent death of an English diplo- matist .h:LS revealf'd a remarkable fact about a German scientist now interned at Alexandra Palace. The scientist is Frederick Mehna.rto, a pupil of Koch, a Parley-street consultant who came into prominence three yean ago in connection with experiments in the treatment </t' tuberculosis conducted in London at the Margaret-street Hospital and the Dreadnought Hospital, Gerenwich. Dr. Mohnarto claimed to ha.ve discovered a serum for consumption. On the outbreak of war he was interned at the Alexandra, Palace. His house in Harley-street and his home and laboratory at Noting Hill were closed. A few months ago a well-known diploma.tist was suffer- ing -from the disease for which the in- terned German's serum was considered a possible cure. Representations were made to the authorities, and it was agreed to allow Mehnarto to return to his labora- tory at Netting Hill, as he alone could manufacture the semm. The SMret he re- fused to impart to anyone. The German left the palace each day under escort. But an initial difficulty had to be overcome. For his experiments he h.id kept n. number of vipers. These were now dead. He was given facilities for obtaining what'he required from the Zoological Gardens. Thus supplied he v.-orked for months in hi<! laboratory, pro- ducing the serum under the official eye of a Scotland Yard omcer. He also con- I tinued experiments for the perfecting of a <"erum to take the place of U fiOfi," and claimed to have arrived at a 'satisfactory result while working as a prisoner of war. While thuR ensued news was sen-t him. from Germany that his mother (who had visited him. in England just before the war) had bepn stricken with tuberculosis, contracted, it was feared, through a too venturesome visit to his laboratory. There was a request that a phial of h&r oon's serum should be sent her. By the ccurtpcy of the British authorities I". me!snQ,"cr.. W9;f; despatched with the elixir and with a letter in code to Dr. Me'hnart'o'*s only sister giving the secret of the cure. The mpR3en;?er was seized on entenn? GerTna.ny, the letter and phial were confi,c;c?tk.xl, and the faster to I whom thR letter was addressed was ar- rested, and, as far as is known, she is I still hpid Af(,i.Tiwliile il.Ines, of the diplomatist for th& treatment of whom Dr. Mehnarto had bpen allov.-p-d to return to his labora- tory did not yield 1o tr&atment. Eventually the permit to leave Alexandra Palace wa's revoked, and the scientist now spends his days 'behind the barbed wire at Wod Green along with other Germans who hold places in science, art, and laedicine. At. the time of his internment D". Mehnarto was in negctia.tion with the physicians of a crowned head for a supply of his eerum.

At the same time, it is most gratifying to me that I am considered worthy to preside over this distinguished and reprc- senta.tive body, empowered to deal with a matter of such deep national interest as t-I)e and allowances granted, not only to tho-o who have b?cn engaged in thip, the greatest war the 'world has ever 6Cûn. but also to their -wives, their famnies, their widows, and dependants. My dt-ar father and other members of my family are to-day, as in the past, per- sonally iden-Med with all EC'lleme.s for the 'welfare of soldier. and sailors. I am prou'd to follow their example. It has been my good fortune for some months to be associated with the daily life of our Army at tho front, and the expfrience.s thus gained will ie.a.vo imperishable memories of the dauntless courage and cheerful endurance of all ra.nl'us. So I regard it a-s a privilege to join with you in rendering service to them or to their dependents. With regard to the powers entrusted to us, it is satisfactory to know that we shall be able to deal sympathetically with the cages of widows and dependents of sol- diers who may need more individual treatment than can be given under tho necessarily somewhat rigid f\Y8tŒl. of Government departments. It must bo our endeavour to save thoce who have answered their country's call from tho dread, lest, should their lives bo sacri- ficed, their families will suffer serious hardship or any material lowering of the standard of life. lender the Act we shall not only be authorised to supplement, in exceptional cases, the scale of State pensions, but also to take into account the position of. de- pendent persons not hitherto recognised by th3 State. And there is another class to whom the whole sympathy of the nation will go out, and who may count upon the hearty consideration of this Committee— those who, in the prime of manhood and vigour of health, have been permaccntiy disabled. Although they will receive substantial pensions from the State, our special duties will be to initiate schemes of training and means of nnding employment, and thus enable them to feel that they are still active members of. the community. Among the members of our body are re- presentatives of many of the various voluntary associations that have already done so much to relieve the Government departments, and to ensure sympathetic treatment of the families of men with the colours, and of the widows and orphans, the number of which, alas! daily in- creases. I doabt whether the public a.t ]arge has fully recognised and appreciated the quiet, unselfish work which, since the opening of the war, has been done-by thousands of men and women to make certain that, as far as possible, the men who are fight- ing our battles should be free from anxiety as -to tte well-being of their families a.t home. It wi]l be for us to see that this good work is not ;lost, but rather adjusted and developed. I sincerely hope .that they will still place their services at tim disposal of their country by serving on, or co-operating with, the new local committees which will come into being as a consequence of this Act. During- the continuance of the war it will be dimcult—indeed, I fear, impossible —for me to carry out fully my duties as chairman, but I shall follow your pro- ceedings with the closest interest, and look forward -to the day when my time will be more a.t your disposal. Meanwhile, you will be guided in your deliberations by our vice-chairman, Mr. Cyril Jackson, who can always coimt upon our loyal and implicit confidence. The omeial report states that the meet- ing considered the subject of organisa- tion, and decided to appoint the follow- ingMmmittees:— (1) Organisation and general purposef5, consisting of eight members; C) Finance, six member?.; (3) Pensions, grants, and allowances, twelve members. His Royal Highness (chairman), the vicc-aTiairma-n, and Mr. W. H'ayes Fisher will be ex-omcio m<?m-bers of all the com- .mitt.ees. Until a, secretary is appointed, it was decided that the secretary of the Eoval Patriotic Fund Corporation. Lieutenant- colonel Alfred Welby, &hould act in tJnt capacity, and'that, pending a decision as to public omces, the work shall be carried on at the offices of the Corporation, )7. Waterl<x)-pla<-e. Pall Mall, where all letters should be addressed for the pre- sent. On the appointment of the finance com- mittee, Mr. Haves Fisher stated that '.e had been authorised by the Chancellor of the Exchequer to state that he will re- commend to Parliament, and endeavour to obta-m, a State grant of £1,000,000 ster- ling, to be placed at the disposal of the Statutory Committee. When t am King." Some interesting'stories are given bv Mr. David Williamson in his biography of the Prince of Wal, published on Mon- day. One of theee is to the effect that the young Prince once declared:— '0, -ien I am King I <shall make three laws:— No one shall cut the tails of the little doge; There shall be no more nshing with hooka; No one shall use bearing-redne to hurt the horses. He was, in fact, uncommonly fond of animaLs—and continues to be. which is an excellent trait. At one time the Prince was being nurf.ed through a childish ail- ment, and was told by his nurse of a little girl patient who had shown great courage. The Prince listened attentively, then said I would like to send that little girl 'little girl something because she has been so patient. Take her my little ftatue of Lord Roberts. The statuette, which was one of the Prince's great&st treasurer was duly sent.
