"London's burning!" Foreignera, knowing our langu- age but not our customs, might have made this exclamation last night about 6 o'clock in Gower stroet, says the Daily Chronicle of Nov. 6.
Whirling flames of fire rose from the quadrangle of University College, hiding Its sombre columns from the crowds which lined the streets.

FUTURE OF LIBERALISM.
SIR JOHN SIMON'S POLITICS.
Sir John Simon, K.C., M.P., spoko of the future of Liberalism at a Cambridge University. Liberal Club.
He urged that the party would yet have an important part to play in the elimination of class war in industry. Now was not the! time to desert the cause unless one's convictions utterly changed. This was rather a time to hold. more firmly to the things in which they believed.
It was in the fold of industrial relations, he said, that young Liberals might hope to help in the noxt fifteen years in carrying for-

Then came the execution and the disposal, of the bodies of the two guys-Sir Chartres Biron and Mr. A. J. Cook,
Sir, Chartres Biron is the Bow- street magistrate who gave some fatherly counsel to four students who came, before him some time ngo after a Bloomsbury rag.
Although Sir Chartres has at tended college dinners, it was de- cided, in a spirit of friendly re- taliation, that he must be executed and burned for daring to give ad. vice to undergraduates who are now known as "the four Blooms- bury saints."
So his efgy was laid acrONS A block, and an executioner, whose face was masked in black, chopped off his head, and to the yells of hundreds of students the body of the "distinguished magistrate was thrown to the fire.

It should be added that a cardin- al, attended by the four hafnts, who wore gold haloa, duly said prayers over the victim.
Now came, the turn of Mr. A. J. Cook, who was also disposed of with all the majesty of "rig" law.
High-spirited young men dia, guised as red devils danced round the fire with prongs, and from every part of the quadrangle fuel was found to feed the fire.
The fire burned so hotly that the crowd of students in the quadran- gle was compelled to retire to the outer walls for a time.

BATH OF CHAMPAGNE.
FANTASTIC STORY OF RUM-",
RUNNERS.
New York--A fantastic story of rum-running, piracy and a party in which a bath-tub filled with champagne figured, was unfolded in the Federal Court here recently.
It appears that the rum-runner Elma was seized by "Hi-jackers," and a party was held on board to seal the band of fellowship be twean the opposing factions. When the convival festivities were at their height the vessel was boarded by coastguards, who found the crew, muga in hand, gathered round the captain's bath-tub, which was full of champagne. In the tub was sented " Queen of the Rum Trade" in the person not of a lovely mermaid, but of a griz- zled, beared "Hi-jacker" wearing a blonde woman's wig.
Other prohibition incidents 're- ported include the acizure in Brooklyn of 260,000 gallons of whisky, the largest haul which has over been made in this country, and the value of which in cotimated þát 6,000,000 dollars.
They would never be able to tackle successfully the tremend ously important subject of revis- ing and adjusting industrial rela- tions of substituting peace for war, without the Liberal contribu-
