A TARTAR.
SUFFRAGETTE SCENES IN COURT. By Cable—Press London, April 8. Mrs. Drummond, at the Marlborough Street Police Court, said to the Magistrate: "I suppose jou've been to see Bluebeard at the Home Office, but I do not care." She raised her voice until it became unintelligible, and suddenly she leaped in the dock and attempted to smash the glass screen of the reporters' desk. The police held her in the dock. In her violent struggles' she tore off a policeman's whistle and flung it at the magistrate. When she was fined 40s, she screamed, "You have not done with me yet, old man." A sympathiser paid the fine. Two suffragettes charged in the Belfast Police Court adopted Mrs. Drummond's screaming tactics and demanded the arrest of Sir Edward Carson and Mr. Craig. They created pandemonium. Forty were ejected and the proceedings adjourned.
