A reward of one million francs has been offered for the capture of Aleco Pasha and his fellow leaders in a revolutionary movement in Jugo-Slavia against the terms of the treaty of Neuilly.

WIFE SQUELCHES "RISQUE" STORY
OLEVELAND, March 6—Judge David Moylan, in Municipal court here, has advanced the cause of married women's freedom one step further by a decision in which he held a woman was justified even to the point of using a flat iron in preventing a friend of her husband from telling a story in her home to which she objected.
The husband, according to the testimony in court, took the friend's part, but the court said a wife was the best judge of the stories told in the home and dismissed the woman, who had been arrested on a charge of assault and battery.

TRADITION BINDS BRITISH MONARCH
LONDON, March 5.—Political changes recently in Britain have led to a discussion regarding the powers of the king. Many people think that a king has almost unlimited sway. As a matter of fact, in Berlin, no man is more hedged around by rules and regulations than its sovereign.
In the first place King George must remain a Protestant. Should he become a Roman Catholic he would have to renounce his throne. In the same way, he must not become a Freemason; had he happened to be one at the time of his accession he would have been obliged at once to resign from the craft. As a matter of fact, King George was never initiated.
Apart from religion and law, the king is bound rigidly by most rules, both social and political. Monarch he must immediately withdraw from any clubs to which he has hitherto belonged; again, he never writes a personal letter to anyone outside his immediate personal circle; all his other private correspondence is condensed through secretaries.
Again, according to rule, must not accept any invitation dine or stay with one of his seets. On the contrary, when instance, he wishes to stay with Lord Derby in order to see Grand National race run at Lily pool, he has to invite himself.
The rat, the dragon fly, the minnow and the insectivorous birds are all enemies of the m quio and friends of man.

HORSE, 53, STILL DOES LIGHT WORK
BLOOMINGTON, Pa., March 6.
Clover, believed to be the oldest horse in the country, recently observed his 53rd birthday anniversary in his stall on a farm near here. Clover is apparently in the best of health and shows few of the infirmities his advanced age would indicate. However, he takes things easy nowadays, passing his declining years drawing a country minister about his parish. He does no heavy work. Clover raced for more than 20 years, but his only public showing since then was in 1922, when he was sent to the New York Horse Show for exhibition.
