STFRN MEASURES ADOPTED IN INDIA Government Fights Back Against "No Rent" Campaign Allahabad, India, Dec. 21.--Land- ed proprietors and other citizens have been ordered by the district magistrate to arrest all propagan- dists of the "no rent" campaign, to watch and report all movements of members of the Nationalist Con- gress and to seize and destroy all propaganda leaflets they found in circulation. They were warned that if the or- ders were not followed they would receive no assistance in the collec- tion of rent revenues. The superintendent of warned owners and drivers of pub- lic motor-vehicles to carry no Con- ess workers proceeding to villages or the purpose of distributing no- rent propaganda leaflets. Both orders were issued under the new ordinance passed two weeks ago authorizing the severest penal- ties, even death, for activities found to be antagonistic to the Govern- ment, police Try to Wreck Train Calcutta, Dec. 21. -- An attempt to wreck the Dehra Dun express train near Sitarampur, 140 miles from here, was revealed by chance. A railway repairman's car was de- railed revealing that the rails had been tampered with. The repair- man rushed to the nearest signal- box and threw the danger-signal just in time to stop the train, i's iates SS. Pilsna, Dec. 21.--This steamer, which is carrying Mahatma Gandhi, his odd assortment of disciples and his pots, pans, spinning wheels and milk cans back to #tdia from Eu- rope, looks like Noah's Ark. 'Almost any kind of beast, bird or human being may be found abcard. Some of the Indian princes are bringing back pedigreed dogs from Europe, and the princesses are bringing pedigreed cats. But the oddest collection is found in the steerage part of the ship, which has earned the title of "floating menag- erie." Here the Mahatma himself squats daily, in his loincloth, among dogs, falcons, pigeons, and chickens which he proudly describes as his "friends." The falcons and dogs belong to a retired colonel of the British army. Every dav, in Gandhi's presence, the colonel kills a few pigeons and feeds them to the tame falcons while the latter perch upon his hand. ; Falcon Eats Mate On Friday one of the Falcons ate another alive, much to Gandhi's hor- ror. Some passengers then com- plained that the winged creatures which occupy the steerage deck with the Mahatma were a "common nui- sance," so Gandhi was obliged to part 'with his companions and they were transferred to another part of the steamer. Gandhi had arranged to run up to Cairo, Egypt, and rejoin the ship later but the authorities declined to allow him to leave the boat. The strongest impression he car- ried away from Europe, he said, is that it cannot long sustain the "artificial life" its people are Tiving today. That life, he said, is too ma- terialistic and too complicated." Leaders Arrested Benares, India, Dec. 21.--The first arrests under the new ordinances combatting the Indian "no rent" campaign were made in Rae. Barell district of the United Provinces on Friday. The prisoners were the president and>a member of the district con- gress committee and the chairman '| of the passive resistance committee.

"Young man," said the city mer- chant severely, "I notice that you are almost invariably from ten to minutes late in getting to the office!" a "I know, sir," replied the "but you séem to set such a y time that T didn't think it mattere TT.

ALL IS CHIC THAT GLITTERS AT NIGHT New York --Evening gowns these days put one in mind of the holi- day season. They gleam and glitter quite like Christmas trees. ack, white or gay red are the predominating colors. But the way some of them crisscross scintillating shoulder straps, adjust million dol- lar clips at either side of a low square neck, or manage to bear up as background for honest-to-good- ness diamonds, pearls, rubies and emeralds is handsome. At the Embassy Club last week Mrs. John Stafford wore one of the exquisite new black nets sprink- led all over in gleaming sequins. It was form-fitting, with a skirt that swirled to width about knee-height and it had its own little sparkling jacket with amazing wide flaring sequinned sleeves. Against the mir- rored walls of this smart night club, such gowns as this one take on a magic gleam indeed. ic Via Blue Velvet Something different from many zowns seen this winter was, a regal blue velvet sponsored by Mrs. Fen- ton Taylor. It had brilliants where the shoulder straps cross in the back and join the bodice in front Among the devotees of white satin, Mrs. Frederick Johnson's ice-blue satin was perfectly lovely, Coiffures make a lot of differ ence this winter. Their fancy waves curls and chignons give a lady a real excuse for wearing charming jewelled ornaments. Many are wear- ing them, too. Mrs. Frank Hender- son, at the Seaglade in the St. Regis the other night, wore a crescent of diamonds across her head, that looked smart indeed in her fair 12 King E.

PERILS OF STREETS STRESSED IN COURT | Montreal, Dec. 21.--"The time has come to protect our children from the perils of the street; from young loafers who boast of their conquests over girls," Mr. Justice Loranger said yesterday afternoon in his charge to the jury in connection with the case of Edward Brown, Thomas Johnson, Jack Hughes and Michael Barry, of this city, who are | charged with assaulting a 15-year- old girl on July 24 last. "It is your duty as citizens, if you are satisfied that an assault has | been committed, to find these men | guilty, for in doing so you will pro- | tect society," His Lordship told the | jurors in sending them to deliber- ite on the verdict.
