ATTEMPT TO CAPTURE RAISULI.

London, February 14P Rasisuli, the brigand who captured Kaid Miaclean and held him to ransom for so many months, is wanted for London! In the middle of the struggle with the Variety Artists’ Federation Mr Stoll had a brilliant inspiration. Why not capture the famous brigand and bring him, metaphorically, in golden fetters to the Hippodrome? 00-operation with 'the Foreign Office was sought, and the cables were put to work, with the result that Raisuli is considering, for an enormous ransom, the idea of coming over to London to be the star turn at the Hippodrome. Mr Fred Trussell, the manager of the Hippodrome, leaves by the Himalaya from Tilbury to-morrow morning for Morocco, and it is hoped that be will be with Raisuli in the course of a few weeks.

If Raisuli is captured, it is stated that he will give every one present at the performances first-class thrills and that he will bring his performance to a climax by tearing round the Hippodrome ring at full gallop, firing a rifle into the air.
