for the defondants.

Mina Owen asked for a rohear- ing on the ground. that she con- monted to the withdrawal of the Action only if Lord Rothermere agreed to pay and contribute generous sums to charities.

At the end of the bearing the motion was diamissed with costs. The Court was again packed to the doors the gallery and passages being crowded almost to yaffuention. The public had taken up, positions so early that Mr. Upjohn, K.C., counsel for Miss Owen, had to fight his way to his scat..

Miss' Owen's Optimism.

Miss Owen, who" was examined. by Mr. Swords, her junior Counsel, said it was suggested that she should put herself into the hands. of Mr. Jowitt, her leading counsel, and she refused. Next day, the Judge asked Mr. Jowitt to con- sider whether plaintiff thought it worth while going on, and as a ra- sult she was called out of Court and saw Counsel in the consulta tion room. Mr. Jowitt said he thought the Judge was against them and said he ought to settle, She told him she would fight to a finish. She told Counsel and Sir Rogor Gregory, her solicitor, not to worry about expenses as she was not destitute and had had offers of help.

It never occurred to her that she could be called upon to pay as she was always optimistic that she would win. She returned to Court and saw a movement on the other side, but had no idea what Was passing. Then Sir Roger Gregory called her out and told her Lord Rothermore would pay her costs and his own and give generous sums to charities.

She then said, "What is the use of us going on with the case? shall be getting all I have been fighting for

Sir Roger retorted, "Lenve' it to mé. He is in a very generous mood."

Mr. Jowit said she was all right. She asked suing to be fixed, but "Sir Rager replied that Lord Nothermerc was in a gener- ous mood. That was the gist of the whole consideration.

Troops See Coming. Opera.

The final dress rehearsal of the Hongkong Philharmonic Society's production of 'H. M. S. Pinafore" was given at the Theatre Royal last night and gave promise of an- other very creditable performance by the Society. It was a happy thought which prompted an invita- tion to the Service men now in the Colony to see the final rehearsal, and the Theatre was filled with soldiers and sailors who showed their appreciation in no half- hearted manner.

TRAIN SMASH EPIC.

WOMAN DOCTOR WHO

DARED DEATH.

A young woman doctor who qualified not long ago'nt the Royal Free Hospital, London, is by com- mon consent the heroine of the recent railway disaster at Hull.

She is Dr. Anne Perrott, of Walford, now on the staff of An- laby Hospital, and she unhesitat- ingly risked her own life to save two men who lay maimed under a mass of collapsing wreckage. Crawling in through this wreck- age, she plimbed over one of the engines, and with her own handa bore a way into a splintered car- ringe to bring them help.

This (says the Daily Express) is Miss Perrott's own story, told with reluctance and modesty :-

"I think that I was the second doctor on the seeue. The front carriage, of one train had reared up and collapsed over the engine. Some one told me that in the ruin ed carriage were two badly in- jured men, and it was up to me to go in and flud them.

"They Would Have Died."

"I had to climb through a hola in the engine, over the coal in the tender, and so into the wreck. Above me the roof of the front carriage was wrecking and break- ing up around me as I crawled. I had the horrible thought it was Miss Owen's adidavit, Su which coming on top of me all the while. she was being examined, stated Once a piece of timber fell, and that after consultation, Mr. Jowiti |I had to back out and try a new began reading a statement with way.

When she heard Mr. Jowitt make his statement in court, she was speechless for the first time in her life. (Laughter.)

restoratives, and do my best to ease their pain. All the while the roof threatened to collapse, but I kept the two men free from fur- ther injury until a rescue party could euf them out."

One of the senior doctors at the infirmary said:-

"Without doubt the men would have died but for the

care Dr. Perrott gave them at great risk to herself."

When she heard from Sir Roger Gregory as to terms, she consider ed she was caught like a rat în a. trap. She never would have ac-
