THE KING AT ASCOT.
COMBATTING SUFFRAGETTES. p ßy Electric Telegraph—Cops-bight] Times and Sydney Sun Services. London, June 18. The King and his guests motored from Windsor to Ascot, on a glorious, warm day. There was an unparalleled exhibition of summer fashions, with gorgeous colors and novel sunshade creations, but there was evidence that the black and white combination is becoming popular. Every woman in the Royal enclosure was compelled to wear a badge, and all arrivals were subjected to the strictest but unobstrusive surveillance. "Top-hatted" detectives watched the stands, and in the evening these were guarded against suffragettes by police watchdogs and spring guns.
