His full name {8s Thomas Henry Hall Caine, and he was knighted in 1918, but to the gen- eral public he is better known as Hall Calne, : . Born at Runcorn, Cheshire, England, on May 14, 18563, Hall Calne spent his boyhood days In the Isle of Man, where he went to live with relatives when young, His early years were lived in conditions of poverty. When a young man he went to Liverpool where he obtained a position on the Liverpool Mereury, Newspaper writ- ing, however, did not appeal to him; he wanted to write novels, and prompt- ed by this ambition, he asked for, and accepted, a reduction of salary in order that he might devote consider- able time to novel-writing. Subsequently Hall Caine came to London; where he lived with Dante secretary-companion, This position he continued to occupy until Rossetti's death, April 9, 1882, For nearly 60 years Hall Caine has produced plays and novels, In 1895 Hal] Caine went to Canada as representative of the Authors' Society and the Colonial Office in con- nection with the successful negotia- tion of terms with the Dominion Gov- ernment with regard to Canadian copyright. Knighthood was conferred on Hall Caine in recognition of his services as a writer of propaganda during the War. It is understood that Sir Hall Caine is now engaged in writing his own version of the life of Christ. derwood International Trophy, | | STEAMER CAME TO GRIEF ON Actually "On The Rocks" THE COAST OF BERWICKSHIRE The 8.8, President of Sunderland became a total wreck when she ran ashore at Eyemouth during a dense fog in the early morning.

St. Pierre Hughes | that those in charge of penitentiary administration should be empowered with authority to administer and dis- cipline on similar basis to that of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police has created much interest in Ottawa, and the annual report of Buperintendent Hughes is perused this year with-more than usual interest. General Hughes makes eight other recommendations, but these are along the lines for which he has been press- ing for many years and are planks in his platform of prison reform in Can- ada. The administrative recommen- 'dation is a new one and is believed by many in the capital to be an effort to get the penitentiary staffs out of politics. = General Hughes will not discuss the matter beyond the recommendations in his report, but there has been talk in Ottawa for some considerable time that politics have been pitch-forked into the penitentiary administration and that appointments are being made on political grounds rather -than on efficiency and fitness for the service. ---- Crowds and Mobs London Observer (Ind.): The term "mob," once the commonplace of alarmist reaction, has now vanished from our political vocabulary.

In recent murder cases the police have been closely - questioned on what is regarded as.a new practice of keeping suspects without food and in suspense, for several hours while subjecting them to steady grilling and cross questioning. 5 Defending counsel in these cases have asserted that admissions, secur- ed from their; clients, were obtained by brutal thifd degree methods, and members of Parliament have become very restive in defénce of the liberty of every subject which debate reveal ed; 1s very dear to the Commons, - Case In Limelight And now, as a climax, comes the case pf, Miss Irene Savage, who was recently "released, cleared of all sus- picion, after being arrested with Sir Leo Money, charged with misconduct in Hyde Park, the magistrate declar- ing that the case should never have been brought up in court. Miss Savage's case was again brought -into - the limelight when & number of Laborites charged that she had been re-arrested by two police officers, and put through the ordeal of having a series of personal and embarrassing questions hurled at her in connection with the Hyde Park in. cfagnt. This will result in not only an in- quiry into what happened during her five hours' ordeal at Scotland Yard, but also Into general police methods of obtathing evidence against suspect ed persons, The situation precipitated by the de- bate, indeed, was so serious that the Government had to agree to an official investigation or risk defeat, because nat only were Labor and Liberal mem- bers aroused by tha disclosures, but (Conservative members likewise intl mated that a Government inquiry must be granted. It has long heen a practice of British police officers, when charges are made agains them and an inquiry is pend- ing to send for those making the charges and subject them to a severe cross-examination with a view to se- curing withdrawal of the accusations. They have no power to follow such a procedure and, in many cases, thelr demands were not granted, but those fgnorant of the extent of Scotland Yard's authority have accompanied the officers, under the belief that they were obliged to do so, and among these unfortunate and uninformed per- sons was Miss Savage. In a sworn statement, which was read by a Laborite named Johnston, the editor of the Glasgow soclalist weekly "Forward," Miss Savage re- vealed, that thé police put the most intimate questions to her and also de- monstuated in the most intimate man- ner what might have happened be- tween her and Sir Leo-Money during their sojourn in Hyde Park. S80 embarrassing were some of the questions, that the women members of Parliament agreed not to come into the House during the discussion, and even a large number of men mem- bers were made uncomfortable. Sensational Debate The ministers, including Premier Baldwin, appeared most perturbed and listened to Johnston's speech with grave faces. Lloyd George came in from the country especially to hear the debate, which is regarded by the press as one of the most sensational in recent years. . The members are now awaiting the result of the inquiry, . but there is much spéculation as to whether, if it goes against the police, Bir William Horwood, the chief commissioner, will resign, and what will ha the fate of the Home Secretary, Sir William Joynson-Hicks? The Daily Herald, the Labor organ, demands that Sir William should resign in such an event. Moreover, it is understood that if the original police investigation into 8ir Leo Money's case is found to have been irregular, prosecutions for per jury, against the officers concerned, will take place and that documents prosecutor, ; In any event, the Government and Parliament are determined to have the deepest possible proble into police methods in order to safeguard the | public. : rere peda Siamas Tp are already in the hands of the public
