OUR LONDON LETTER. [FROK OUR OWN CORRESPOND*] Summer at last After the disappointing weather, the glad burst of glorious, continu- ous sunshine has given almost unequalled popularity to the Twelfth. It is said that few 3ven of the inferior shoots are still unlet; and on each day during the week the railway com- panies have had their resources taxed to deal with the long-distance traffic of passengers and heavy luggage from London, as well as the huge demand for cheap excursions. It is believed that the returns of many of the com- panies will make fresh records as a result of the present week's business. One hears already of excellent bags; and the unfortu- nate Members of Parliament who look upon the sport as one from which normally nothing can keep them are forced by party loyalty to stay in town and swelter among Budget figures and facts. From all sources there come accounts of trippers swarming into the popular summer playgrounds, and trades- people are making frantic efforts to turn the golden opportunity to the best, account, and compensate themselves a little for the dull, barren weeks of the earlier part of the season. Within a week has come the news of two splendid charitable gifts to London. Mr. Schiff's magnificently generous form of me- morial to his brother by the endowment of a Home of Recovery has been eclipsed by the bequest of the late Mr. Harry Barnato. He left £250,000 for the purpose of founding ;ome charity in the nature of a hospital, or kindred institution, in commemoration of his brother, Mr. Barney Barnato, and his nep- hew, Mr. Woolf Joel. The trustees, after considering many schemes, have now decided upon applying it to the building and endow- ment of an institution for the reception of jancer patients. The new institution will be idministered, except as regards its finance, in connection with the Middlesex Hospital, which has acquired so high a reputation for its treatment of patients afflicted with this disease, and the trustees have procured a suit- able site in Nassau-street, adjoining this hos- pital's special cancer wards. The task of the ;rustees has been a difficult one. Many ;chemes, all excellent in design, have been submitted to them, and have received earnest ionsideration at their hands. At the Middle- ;ex Hospital, the benefit of its special can- cer charity is freely extended to patients, ir- respective of their creed or nationality. Much valuable information regarding the nature of :he disease and suitable forms of treatment las been gained through the medium of the hospital's research laboratories. This work jeemed most deserving of encouragement. It s expected that a great advance will be made .n the important investigations into the nature of the disease, and that with the in- creased effort the delay in elucidating the mysteries surrounding its origin will be con- jiderably decreased. The clubs were greatly interested to know )f Lord Kitchener's appointment to succeed the Duke of Connaught, and there has been much speculation as to what form the in- jreased responsibilities, which are expected, fvill take. As it has hitherto been conducted, :he command was, as his Royal Highness ,ield, a kind of honourable sinecure. The iuties of the command were described by Mr. Haldane in the House of Commons on August 3th, 1907, when he explained that the com- mand comprised the military forces at Gibral- tar and Malta, the detachments in Crete (now withdrawn) and Cyprus, and the British troops quartered in Egypt and the Soudan- some 18,000 troops in all, commanded by a aeld-marshal and seven generals of varying rank. Lord Kitchener hands over his com- mand in India to General Sir O'Moore Creagh on September 10th. His Lordship will then go, first of all, to North China, and thence to Kobe, for the Imperial Japanese manoeuvres. He will leave Japan for Van- couver, about Christmas, for a tour in Canada, where he will discuss exhaustively the question of Imperial defence with the military authorities in the Dominion. The Governments of the Australian Common- wealth and New Zealand have invited him to their respective countries for a similar purpose, and he has, it is believed, accepted. He will be appointed a member of the Committee of Imperial Defence, after laving studied the military organisations in the various Overseas Dominions, and will place at the disposal of the War Office his un- rivalled knowledge and experience of all questions relating to the subject of the de- fences of the Empire. Visitors to the Zoological Gardens ought to make a point of inquiring for the recent I arrivals, which are of great interest. One charming little newcomer is a calf which was born in the hissar cattle pen at the end or last week. It is of a pretty creamy colour, and two amusing long lop ears move incessantly in an untiring battle with flies. Near by is a bull which has not grown at all used to his new surroundings, and makes frequent pro- test by vigorously charging the bars of his cage. On the same day as the calf arrived, an ant-eater was brought into the Gardens. This curious and unlovely animal is mostly tongue, and when he is being fed this very ruly member shoots like a snake with amaz- ing precision. It is long enough to coil round 0 the keeper's hand. Two South African ante- lopes of a kind nearly extinct, a nightmare- like agouti, and a beautifully marked Sumatra tiger are other very entertaining re- cent additions. The building of the new hall of the London County Council naturally concerns the loyal Londoner, and there is great interest in its progress. Considerable alterations have been made in the scheme. They are mostly with a view to improving the effect, but one import- ant change will enable the building when complete to accommodate a staff of 2,850. The Council chamber is to be made large enough to hold a sitting of 200 members, sup- posing the present number of 137 to be in- creased. By the building of the new embank- ment upwards of 2i acres will be reclaimed, and the greater part of this operation will be complete by May next. It is interesting to learn that the ferro-conerele process in use for so many private business premises as well as for the new Post Office buildings has been discarded for the older process. It is said that only the central block will be proceeded with now, and that it is likely to be finished by about the spring of 1914. As an instance of the difficulty of carrying on work of scientific research. Lieutenant Shackleton's announcement as to the funds of his expedition is remarkable. It was oom- monly supposed by those who were interested in reading and hearing the explorer's story that he had been well assisted. Indeed, some people had imagined that the results of the sale of the book and of the crowded lectures promised to bring him in a fortune. As it is, apparently, it will be a matter of considerable anxiety to meet the heavy liabilities incurred by the expense of the expedition. It is ex- ceedingly hard that men who have braved terrible dangers in the cause of science should have to struggle besides to pay for the honour 'of contributing to geographical knowledge. The Tuberculosis Exhibition is now on tour in London. Its first resting-place is the White City, and there it is a very popular feature. Promoted by the Society for the Prevention of Consumption as a mean6 of educating the people to combat the ravages of a terrible disease, the exhibition has already done much good work in White- chapel, where it hxe been visited by over 72,000 persons. A regular tour by the ex- hibition of London and the Provinces, occu- pying about twelve months, will now be made. Lord Balfour of Burleigh, in opening the exhibition, said that its promoters have a definite aim in view, their main object being to enlighten and educate those whom they can reach to do their part better in combat- ing the disease of consumption. It is not only a campaign against the disease, but against the popular ignorance and apathy in regard to all A-he features of the disease. The disease is largely preventable, and it is also curable if taken in hand i early. If people knew the importance of light, air, sunshine, and cleanliness there would be much less tuberculosis in all its forms than there is at present, said Lord Balfour. He said the Society had invitations which would occupy the exhibition for a year, among the places to which it had been invited being Crewe, Hali- fax, Bury, Bolton, and Plymouth.

Bronson: "I thought you owned your house." Woodson: "So did 1. but I had an argument with our cook last night, and I'm better in- formed this morning." Hal: There goes a woman who did me out of a. fortune." Ned: "Why, how's that?" Hal: She's the heiress I was telling you about who refused to marry me." "Ah!" said Bragley, with a view to making Miss Wise jealous, I was alone with someone I admire very much." "Ah!" echoed the bright EirL alone, were you?"

ItING MANUEL'S VISIT. WEEK AT WINDSOR IN NOVEMBER The Pall Mall Gazette understands that it has now been definitely arranged that King Manuel of Portugal will spend a week at Windsor as the guest of the King during the first part of November. His Majesty will come to England direct from Portugal, and, as the visit will be one of a State character, he will be accompanied either by his Prime Minister or by his Minister for Foreign Affairs. His Majesty is coming in response to a special invitation of King Edward, who recently wrote to him a most cordial letter asking him to visit this country. During his stay in England lie will drive through London and visit the City as the guest of the Lord Mayor and Corporation, who are arranging to entertain him, as they entertained his august father and mother a few years ago, at the Guildhall. King Manuel, who is an ardent sportsman, is looking forward with keen pleasure to the shooting at Windsor. Several shooting parties are sure to be. arranged during his stay, and it is not unlikely that there will be a theatrical performance by special com- mand at the Castle.

ITALY AND AUSTRIA. MEETING OF MONARCHS. It appears that the Austrian Emperor will proceed to the Tyrol on the 28th inst., on which date King Victor will be at the Lake Df Garda for the grand manoeuvres. There is probably nothing in this beyond a coinci- dence, but rumours are current that the coincidence may be taken advantage of in Drder to bring about a meeting of the two monarchs. There is no doubt that, in Italian diplo- matic quarters at least, a meeting would be welcomed. It would do much to dissipate a certain undesirable something in the atmos- phere, which finds manifestation in further frontier incidents, and only a day or two ago nearly brought about a serious collision be- tween Italian and Austrian trbops.

CHEAM MOTOR FATALITY. THE SPEED OF TWO CARS. Mr. F. J. Nightingale held an inquest at Lower Cheam on Tuesday on the body of John Stepherf Purry, aged forty-seven years, a, chartered accountant, of Parliament-hill, Hampstead, who was killed in a motor acci- dent at Lower Cheam on Saturday afternoon. Arthur Lavender, a chauffeur, said he was waiting in a car outside St. Anthony's Hospi- tal, Cheam, at 11.15 on Saturday morning. He saw two cars, a red and a green one, com- ing up the road from London. When about 300 yards away the dark car, which was in front, suddenly swerved in front of the red car, turned off sharply, and ran into the right- hand gutter. It ran out into the middle of the road, and again nearly ran into the red car. The car, however, was run on to the grass. The dark car skidded and turned completely round, and at the same time the near hind wheel gave way and the car toppled over. The red car went on a little way and stopped. He also saw a lady thrown into the roadway, but so far as he could remember there were three gentlemen underneath the car. James Cox Lowe, landlord of the Lord Nelson, said both cars were going faster than ordinary. It appeared to him that the dark car was trying to overtake the red car. Charles Henry Bartlett, of 18, Kemplay- road, Hampstead, the owner and driver of the dark car, next gave evidence. He said he was driving the car to Felpham. In it were the deceased, the deceased's eon, and Miss Cook. He had been driving the car for two months, and had travelled between 13,000 and 14,000 miles. He said he was not trying to pass the red car, but was keeping up with it. He did not drive fast as a rule. About fcwe*trv-five miles an hour was his regular rate of speed. Deceased's brother stated it seemed to him that the cause must have been the breaking of the axle. Dr. Chearnlev Smith, who was in the hos- pital at the time 46f the accident, said the car had fallen on the deceased's chest, killing him instantly. Death was due to haemorrhage. The Coroner observed that there was no evidence of negligence in driving, but he thought it was rather risky for two cars to be driving close together in the way described. The jury returned a verdict of accidental death.

"DICK" EU UG E RELEASED. THE LIGHT-WEIGHT CHAMPION'S STORY Dick Burge, who, at the height of his fame as a boxer, was sentenced to ten years' penal servitude for his share in the Liverpool bank frauds in 1901, was on Tuesday morning re- leased from Pentonville Prison, after serving seven and a-half years. Burge earned full remission marks, and also special remission for having, whilst at Portland, gone to the assistance of a warder, upon whom another convict had made a murderous assault. During imprisonment he learnt wood-carving, and accomplished some olever work in the chapel. His first prison occupation was the smithy, which he left in order to work in the quarry. Ultimately he was engaged in the library. The arrest of Burge, in 1901, caused un- bounded excitement in sporting and music- hall circles. Only three weeks before, he had been married—to Miss Bella Lloyd, one of the sisters of Miss Marie Lloyd. As a pugilist he held a remarkable record, having fought his way steadily to the light- weight championship of England. His boxing began as a boy in country booths, and the one defeat of his career took place in 1898, when he fought with Bobby Dobbs, the American negro. At the end of the eighth round there was a dispute with the umpire, and Burge de- clined to continue the fight. The chief figure in the Liverpool Bank frauds, it will be recalled, was Thomas Peter- son Goudie, a bank clerk, who also was sen- tenced to five years' penal servitude. At the end of five years he died, in prison. The Bank of Liverpool was robbed in all of £ 160,000. Most of this monev Goudie lost in gambling transactions. In one week alone his losses totalled £30,000, which amount he duly covered with a forged cheque. Goudie, the Evening Standard recalls, had managed to manipulate the investments of one of the bank's wealthy clients. Forged cheques were drawn upon this gentleman's account, and when these cheques reached the hands of Goudie-as bafnk clerk-he entered the amounts in his memorandum fceoks and destroyed the cheques. By clear- ing his book against the entries he gave the impression that the cheques had been dealt with.

THE BRUSSELS EXHIBITION. Preparations for the Brussels International Exhibition of next year are well in hand, the principal buildings having already been erected. By the Belgian administration the exhibition is being run on good and very enterprising lines. It seems probable that Brussels will have to deal, next summer, yvith an unprecedented invasion of tourists. A novel meeting for aeronautics (on which Y-10,000 is to be spent), a road congress, the centenary exhibits and gardening operations ef the Gand florists, and a piaturesque repro- duction of Old Brussels will be among the attractions. Not only will the grounds be treated very largely as gardens, but there will be international flower shows opening on April 30th and October 29th, together with a show for apple growers and market gar- deners in September. The scale of these vari- ous horticultural shows may be measured from the fact that 250 non-Belgian experts will serve on the juries.

MR. LLOYD-GEORGE LEAVES LONDON. The Chancellor of the Exchequer left Lon- don on Tuesday mr-r^ins; for North Wales, to attenci the funeral *)f his sister at Criccieth. He was not, therefore, in his place in the House of Commons, at night when the Finance Bill was further considered in Committee.
