MYSTERY OF NOTED AUTHOR REVEALED A Friend of Marie Corelli, Reveals Some of the Mys- teries Surrounding the Writer London--There was always a great deal of mystery about Marie Corelli, but the veil is lifted by Bertha Vyver who lived with her from. childh till her death, and who has now written a book, "Memoirs of Marie Corelli," full of intimate details of the writer's life during many years. In an account of her early childhood at Fern Dell, Box Hill, Miss Corelli wrote: "I instinctively did all I.could to make myself. a personality to be reckoned with." The author divul- ges the secret that Marie Corelli was the author of "The Silver Domino," which in 1893 was the literary puzzle of the hour. "In the summer of 1889, Mr, Glad- stone called unexpectedly on Marie, but did not find her at home. On her return that afternoon her maid 'Jane' exclaimed: 'Yes, Miss, it was Mr. Gladstone; I knew him by his collar and "Mother Gamp umbrella. An appointment was arranged for the next day, and Mr. Gladstone ar- rived at about four o'clock in a car- riage accompanied by Mrs. Glad- stone, who remained in the carriage. Marie suggested her coming in, but Mr. Gladstone said: Oh, no; she is accustomed to wait for me and en- joys the fresh air; and for over two hours Mr. Gladstone chatted on many subjects--and Mrs. Gladstone took the fresh air!" . The writing of "The Sorrows of Satan" taxed Marie heavily. "When the manuscript - had gone to the printers I found her sobbing in her study. 'It is going to be a failure, she said. 'I feel it, for it does not come up to what I had felt in writing it." In June, 1907, Mark Twain paid his last visit to England. He lunch- ed with Marie at "Mason Croft," Stratford-on-Avon, and Marie asked him to write his name in her Visitors' Book, and offered him a gold pen, with "I" studded in small diamonds, which had belonged to Charles Dick- ens. Mark Twain did not appreciate the honor she intended, and, taking his own pen from his pocket, said: "l guess my own is good enough for me." As an 'instance of the spirit in which Miss Corelli wrote her books, the author says that "with all but the few earliest, as it went to the printer she offered a prayer that it might carry her message to the world and bring comfort to her fel- low men and women. She pasted it, though hidden to the printer by a piece of paper pasted over it, into each manuscript, FOSTER BEHIND BENNETT PLAN: Has Turned Conference From Talking Machine to Active Unit . Halifax, N.S, Od. 14.--Comment- ing on the proposals made before the Imperial Conference by Rt. Hon. R. B. Bennett for an Empire preferen- tial tariff, Sir George Foster said he believed "Mr. Bennett has turned the conference from a mere talking ma- chine into an active unit. He has placed before it a principle affecting trade in all parts of the Empire and asked for a decision. I consider that he has taken a frank way of placing his cards on the table and getting down to business. The conference is frankly asked whether it will accept Mr, Bennett's proposal, - If it will not, I interpret Mr. Bennett's atti- tude as being opposed to a continu- ance for the mere purpose of passing pious resolutions."

TIMES, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1930 (Continued from Page 3) estimate, while Se of schools cost $4,720.55, or $1,72045 be- low the estimate. An item of $1,- 170.66 in capital outlay was not bud- geted for, ; . In explaining his budget report, Mr, Fuller comments: "The attached budget comparisons are submitted to include payments made up to and includin~ Sept. 1930, with the addition of the larger accounts payable which are com- mitments for which the Board is liable and will pay in October, . "As closely as can be estimated, the actual amounts spent are lower Sept. 30, 1930, by an amount of $10,- 521.78. Important items are savings under the headings of Instruction and Operation of Plant. : "It is worth noting under the héad of Instruction, that Collegiate Aca- demic Teachers' Salaries show a sur- plus of $3,374.80, and Public School Teachers' Salaries show a surplus of $2,127.20. The latter is partly offset salaries for Public Schools, as is the Collegiate Salary. surplus by a defi- cit on Substitute Collegiate Teachers' costs. "Under the heading of Operating School Plant, it should be noted that the greatest saving was in Fuel. This item alone is over $2,000.00 lower than estimated in the "Cum." Budget figure for Public Schools. Under the heading of Maintenance of Plant, a Capital outlay paid out of Mainten- ance funds on Ritson Road Play- ground can be taken care of in the 1930 Budget for Public School re- pairs since this account has shbwn a' saving in lower plumbing repair costs, lower electrical repairs, lower Board of Education and Bus.

'Wang said the government was planning "to dispatch soldiers imme- diately to Fukien with orders to sup- press and bring to justice the slayers of Miss Harrison and Miss Nettle: ton. In behalf of the Nationalist gov- ernment - and: the Chinese people, Wong expressed - profound regret over the murders. He sdid, these killings 'and other outrages were the result of the Nationalist govern- ment's inability to oppose the com- munists and bandits while its armies were aging war against the north- ern rebels, APT AND WITTY REPLIES (London Tit-Bits) Two suburban districts in London bear the names, Hampstead and Islington.

Consuls in Efirops and Canada have been advised that in issuing visag they must have in mind the conditions of unemployment which obtain in the United States and which make it more difficult to make a living here. Freely interpreted, the ad- vice amounts to an order to refuse visas to those who might find it hard to obtain work or who would usurp jobs which might be needed by United States workmen. The system embodies to a degree the rinciple of selective imigration, or example, if there had been a shortage of carpenters in the Unit. ed States, consuls would issue visas to carpenters. On the other hand, it there were too many carpenters a Canadian carpenter could not get a visas. ¢ Under strict interpretation of the public charges clause it is gener- ally assumed immigration to the Yaiied States will be greatly cut own. FIRST ONTARIO DIVORCE COURT ACTION SUCGEEDS Justice Logie Recommends Law Regarding Co- Respondents Hamilton, Oct. 14--In less than 45 minutes' Mr. Justice Logie yesterday in Supreme Court here granted the application of Helen M. Qualle, for a divorce from her husband, Ivan Henrique Qualle, thus disposing of the first divorce case in an Ontario court: since the enactment of the On- tario Divorce Act. "I know of no reason why the plaintiff should not be granted a di- vorce forthwith instead of waiting six months" Justice Logie said in giving judgment. "I make this state- ment so that all may understand what the law is." Justice Logie's recent ruling as to powers of Ontario courts with regard to alimony and disposition of the children was not involved, no ali- mony being claimed and the custody of the children being determined some time ago by the Manitoba courts, Incidentally Justice Logie express- ed the view that there should be en- acted joint legislation by the domin- fon and Ontario government's re- garding the position*of co-respondent in divorce cases. "The position of co-respondent, whether a' man or woman, is a very serious one," he said, "as frequently adultery charges are laid and mud al- ways sticks." She was fat and over forty, but she was still a flapper. She had cornered a young man at a bridge party. "Do you remember the youngster who used to tickle you under the chin at school?" he asked her. "Oh," she exclaimed flushingly, "so that is who you are!" "Oh, no," he replied blandly, "That was my father."
