In the course of a column article in the Financial News on North Borned it is com. mented on as an anomaly incidental to the city that, while the average man knows all about the Chartered Company of British Africa, comparatively few have any definite knowledge of the Chartered Company of British North Borneo. Of the vast mineral and other potentialities of the country coun- try, roughly, as large as Ireland-which is administered by a British company under the uzerainty of King Edward, the average man has not even the haziest idea. Thus, while you may meet ten men who will discourts quite learnedly on the banket discoveries in Rhodesia, you shall hardly meet one who has

BJECTED FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.

LAPY DRAGGED OUT BY ATTENDANTS. Some weeks ago Mrs. Minor Morris was ejected from the White House under circum- stances which were vehemently discussed throughout the United States.

She resented the dismissal, of her husband from a Government office, on what she regard, ed as inadequate grounds, and accordingly sought an interview with President Roosevelt himself.

The President's private secretary saw her, and informed her that the matter was closed and advised her to leave. She protest- ed, whereupon the attendants were called, and ehe was unceremoniously put out.

DRAGGED OUT KICKING.

Mr. Morris was dragged kicking, not only to the doors of the White House, but aco yards down the street. Her dress was torn, her hair was dishevelled, and eye-witnesses actually picked up the combs and other personal effects she had lost in the struggle

-The facts are as stated, and were never de nied. Mr. Morris remained in bed for six weeks suffering from mental shock.

To-day the correspondence between her husband, Dr. Morris, and President Roosevelt is published. It is brief and to the point. Dr. Morris demands a public apology for "the outrage on womanhood and common decency by the damanable treatment at the White

House "

·

PRESIDENT SAYS THERE WAS NO

UNDUE FORCE.

The President replies that he has made a careful investigation of all the facts, and con- siders that the arrest was justified, and that the force employed by the officers was not greater than the resistance of Mr Morris demanded. President Roosvelt will probably be angrily taken to task, particularly in the South, by his refusal to reprimand certain White House officials for their boisterous conduct.
