T'lie tradition that the labe Lord Kitchener was n woman-hater collapses with the disclosure that ho passionately loved a beautiful Scottish girl named Caroline Hutchinson, whom he met in London in 1868, when he was about to enter the Military Academy. A mutual devotion existed uninterruptedly. The lady first refused marriage on the ground that she had. a bed-ridden aunt, who had 'paralysis of the throat and whom she assisted as nurse. Subsequently she admitted a second reason, that "the great man required a woman accustomed to a lofty station. Lord Kitchener constantly visited the lady, and corresponded with her in affectionate terms. Miss Hutchinson died in London on February 25, 1917. Aus.-N.Z.

The Berlin correspondent of the Chicago "News" interviewed Herr Brockdorff Eantzau, who has been named as one of the German peace delegates. He said: "Our enemies are busy distributing our'colonies, which they obtained in breach of international treaties. England's effort to brand our colonial administration as intolerable must fail.
