THE MANCHESTER GTTARDljAN, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1929. defeat that followed him throughout WIRELESS NOTES AND PROGRAMMES. A VIEW OF THE 101. ATTEMPT TO DEFACE "NIGHT." Tar and Feathers in Glass Containers. TIMELY ARRIVAL OF POLICE.

An attempt which was only partly successful was made during Monday night to tar and feather Epstein's statue "Night" in the Broadway, Westminster. Shortly after 2 a.m. a policeman became suspicious regarding the movements of four men who were near the sculpture, and on his approach they drove rapidly away, in a car! The officer found broken glass and tar and feathers on the ground below the sculpture. When day broke it was seen that there were a few dark blobs on "Night," which is'forty feet from the ground, and it is supposed that in order to accomplish their work of defacing the statue the men had brought tar and feathers in glass containers. Apparently only one of these containers had been thrown at Night," and when the glass broke very little of the tar stuck to the statue.

The men were evidently disturbed' by the police before they had time to hurl other containers. This ie the third time an attempt has been made to disfigure-work-by Epstein. Last week the sculptor's much-discussed "Kima" in Hyde Park, was found -tarred and feathered, and three years aeo the A DELIUS CONCERT. i The B.B.C. states that on Friday next a Delius concert, which is part of the Delius Festival, will be given at the Queen's Hall by the B.B.C.

There will be a two hours continuous broadcast to-night of Captain Brass-bound's Conversion by Bernard Shaw, whose skill with third acts should leceive its reward on the radio even more than on the stage About the time when the pleasure of listening to reproduced voices is liable to pall Shaw will draw fiom the cellar of humour a vintage calculated to go to the head at the first sip, cause the listener to regard further sips as an iniperaive necessity till the bottle But he wrote John Peel and sang it over to his friend, who stood there with tears in his eyes. "By Jove, Peel," he said, you'll be sung when we're both run to earth." Graves had his intuition of immortality. These are the men Caldbeck commemorates this week. JOHN PEEL NOT A WASTER.

Disclaimer by His Only Grandson. But why make such a hero of one who neglected his farm and impoverished his family by his unrestrained pursuit of hunting? Let people by all means hunt as a recreation within reason. But is a rather exaggerated and legendary reputation as a hunter a sufficient reason for so exalting a man. when really nothing else can be put to his credit? wrote the Kev. W.

Hornby, rector of Caldbeck, the home of John Peel, and in so doing he has given offence to the descendants of the huntsman. Mr. George Peel, Keswick, the only surviving giandson of John, and now in his year, states: "I was much surprised to read what the Eev. W. Hornby said about my grandfather, John Peel, the huntsman.

I think that if Mr. Hoi nby wished to say anything about my famous ancestor he should have stated the tiue facts. Sir. Hornby is paid for his job and John Peel was not, and had to pay hia own hunting expenses. He lived on his own estates, and so far from neglecting his property and impoverishing his family lie left all his descendants in a comfortable position.

I should like to know where Mr. Hornby got his information flora and on what his statement is based. I am the last of John Peel's grandsons, and was the only nne who got his original hunting relics and several other articles belonging to him. Tf Mr. Hornhv wants to know the truth about John Peel's life I should he glad if be would communicate with me.

Meantime I am sure he will agree that an apology to the memory of a great man and to his descendants is called for." UNIVERSITY NEWS. Sir Donald Macalister's Retirement. Sir Donald Macalister, Principal of Glasgow University for 22 years, yesterday handed over the silver bar robe of Vice Chancellor and retired from his high office. In a touching farewell address to undeigiailuates, many of whom wore nianifeslly affected by the occasion, lit' said lie should have been tempted to slip away quietly leaving farewell to he uinleistood. "Farewells are apt to be lying," lie continued, especially to Scotsmen, wh-j are prone to suppress emotion however deeply they feel it, but 1 can't help renipmbi'iing that it was by the students in this hall that I was fiist welcomed to the University before I had 1'iti installed or invested or otherwise clothed with aulhoiity.

made a bargain then that we should tieat each other with frank goodwill and mutual confidence. You have kept that hiircrain through vour successive generations, and I at least, kent it constantly befoie my mind as a guido and as an ideal for myself. So, perhaps, it is not that I should, at tbo clnsp of my tenure of office, acrajn present myself to you in this Union Hall, divested and stripped of every shred official authoiity. to speak of your generosity, that you will put the most favourable construction on what I have done and attempted, and to ask your forgiveness for my many shortcomings. wish you heartily good-bye and Godspeed.

While their former chief, with bent head, leaned ever the desk the students sang their Song of Honour, reserved for Kig occasions, and at the close Sir Donald, obviously affected, returned a tearful Thank you." OXFORD, October is. Mr. Heibeit James Hunt, M.A., Magdalen College, lecturer in French at Exeter College and at St. Edmund Hall, has been appointed a tutor of the Hall TO-DAY'S WIRELESS PROGRAMMES. same sculpture was covered with green Eamt snortly alter it had been unveiled Mr.

Stanley Baldwin. Office of Works officials have been engaged in cleaning the statue and have found great difficulty in removing the tar from the crevices of "Kima." Benzol, paraffin, and soda have been used. In August of last year Sir George-Frampton's famous Peter Pan," in Kensington Gardens, was also tarred and feathered, and it was thought that the outrage was in the nature of a reprisal on the part of admirers of Epstein's art. Mr. Epstein's Comment.

"Well, I am in good company," was the comment of Mr. Jacob Epstein, when his attention was drawn to the attempted outrage by a reporter. Michael Angelo's David was stoned by the populace of Florence, and guards had to be put over it. So I feel I am in good company. I do not think it is altogether the work of mischievous persons, not in the sense like window-slashing.

That is all I have to say." Night is over the north side entrance to the Unde: ground building. It represents a female figure drawing the cloak of night over herself and two children. The sculptor's sister-work "Morning" is over the south entrance, and consists of J. group of male figures looking toward the dawn. Epstein began work on the figures in December, 1928.

Standing on scaffolding in a temporary studio erected on the side of the building, he braved the cold spell of the eaily part of this year and became absorbed in his task. No intruders were permitted to disturb him, and the thousands of people who daily passed underneath into the new building were unaware of what form the sculptor's work would take. Until the scaffolding and covering were removed the secrets of Night and Morning were closely guarded. RIMA "TRAVESTY." Mr. Galsworthy and the Hyde Park Statue.

Mr. John Galsworthy described the Rima statue in Hyde Park as a travesty and a kind of desecration" in a lecture at Foyle's Lecture Hall, Charing Cross Road, London, last night. He was speaking on Six novelists in profile," and dealing with W. H. Hudson's Rima said that.

I recoil from the much-debated statue of Rima set up three years ago in Hyde Park. The task was impossible, indeed, for any artist, however original. Metal and stone are unsuited to the volatile and rarified. In the figure of Rima, Hudson was trying to express an uncanny sympathy with all that is not human, and especially with the winged and sweet-songed freedom of birds, which he beyond all men felt. And to see it travestied by this self-confident and heavy product of a studio is, to one who knew Hudson, a kind of desecration.

SHOWING A VISITOR THE SIDE DOOR. French Writer's Amusing Speech. ENGLAND'S "ARCHAIC MODE OF LIFE." M. Andre Maurois, the French writer, paid some humorous tributes to the British when he addressed the Anglo-French luncheon club in London yesterday. There is a feeling between France and England that does not exist between any other countries," he said The other day I was at Geneva, and I heard a very high British delegate to the League of Nations say, France and England are like the father and mother of Europe.

But, unfortunately, the children sometimes hear them disagree. Mother and father must, of course, argue sometimes, but they must not do so in front of their children. Europe takes its lead from the mother and father, and when they are not in agreement Europe is in disorder. Let the English people be all for the British Empire, but they must also realise that Europe is in need of them. What I admire about your country is the tranquillity of the place and people.

You retain your calm' in an epoch when everyone is huirymg, and at a time when eveiyone wants to see as much as they can there are people in the British villages who have seen nothing. All ttiat 1 admire. You have a mode of life which is almost archaic," M. Maurois observed. "The last time I saw Marshal Foeh, when he had returned from Earl Haig's funeral, he said, 'The English have not Recently I visited Blenheim.

I was told by the English doorkeeper that I could not go into the Palace by the front entrance, and the doorkeeper said there was a door at the side about a quarter of a mile away. But how am I to know it? I inquired. I don't was the reply I have never been thei That, I say, is English tranquillity." THE FLOOD AND MR. AND MRS. NOAH.

Opinions of Dean and Earl. The Rev. C. F. Spurr, speaking at a Bible Society meeting at Northampton, said he wished the press, and particularly the London press, would not use in headlines some glaring sentence from a bishop or" a dean and give to his remarks a meaning never intended by the speaker.

In this connection he recalled a recent headline, "The Dean of Lincoln denies the Flood," a headline, open to misconstruction by the ordinary man. The Dean had not done anything of the kind really. I don't believe in the Flood," said the Dean of Peterborough, Dr. Simpson, who followed Mr. Spurr.

"I never did and I was never askea lo. I had a Noah's ark as a small boy and I may have treated it as an idol, but I never believed Mr. Noah. When I was an undergraduate at Oxford Bishop Gore said in my hearing, If Adam was not the first man there must have been somebody who was, and you might as well call him Adam as anything J'- Simpson continued I believe that God is my saviour. I believe that the Holy Spirit sanctifies me.

That is my faith. I see the gentlemen of the press are with us. If they want a heading let them say 'The Dean of Peterborough believes in In his closing speach Earl Spencer, who presided, said, I have been rather shocked bv the Dean's statement. I have always believed implicitly that there was a flood and a Mr and Mrs. Noah." EMPRESS OF CANADA REFLOATED.

"The Quietest Shipwreck." Thd Canadian Pacific liner Empress of Canada, which ran on to -ocks in Horner's Bay, near Vancouver, on Sunday-, was refloated yesterday at high tide, says a Reuter telegram. The grounding of the liner on Stnday was described by one of the passengers as "the quietest shipwreck that could possibly happen." It occurred in a dense fog when the vessel was proceeding at a speed of four knots with a licensed pilot on the bridge. The 96 passengers on board' were immediately removed in tugs. The Empress of Canada was. on her way" out to Canada from England after reconditioning.

She was about to resume service on the Vancouver-Yokohama route; but owing to the accident will "now have, to proceed first into dry dock at Esquimalt for examination. mooring-post at Cardington after PROMISES MADE IN PRISON. Validity Question. IMPORTANT POINT APPEAL CASE. IN Doubt was cast in the Court of Appeal yesterday upon the ability of a man convicted of felony to make a valid promise of marriage, and it was stated by Lord Justice Scrutton that if this point were a good" one it would invalidate all the contiacts made to find work for prisoners on their release from prison.

The matter came up on an appeal by Devi Dayal Sasun, formerly a aoctor, ot Lynton, Devon, who in 1920 was sentenced to ten years' imprisonment tor performing an illegal operation. He appealed before Lords Justices Scrutton, Greer, and Slesser from a verdict and judgment for 400 obtained against him by Miss Amelia Vidler, of Fentiinan Road, London, S.W., for breach ot promise of mairiage. He contended that the verdict was against the weight of the evidence, and that as he was in prison at the date of the piomise found by the jury he could not make a valid promise of marriage. Loid Justice Scrutton, giving judgment, said that the original promise alleged was in 1914. At the trial the pleadings were amended and a promise 1921 alleged.

The defendant did not reply to the amendment by laising the question of his incapacity. There was evidence on which the jury could find that the promise in 1921 had been given and there was no complaint made of the summing up. The question about the incapacity of the defendant was important. If it were correct it would invalidate all the contracts made for prisoners to do work after their release. Sir George Jessel had suggested that the incapacity should be limited to dealing with property.

He did not decide that but he desired to leave this matter open for future consideration if and when the question arose. The appeal would be dismissed because this I question was not raised by the pleadings. Lord Justice Greer and Lord Justice Slesser concurred, and the appeal was accordingly dismissed. DEATH AFTER TEETH EXTRACTION. Rochdale Inquest.

The Rochdale County Coroner, Mr. E. N. Molesworth, yesterday held an inquest on Elsie Howarth (26), of 96, Entwisle Road, Rochdale, who died following an extraction of teeth. Her mother said that on September 2 her daughter had teeth extracted, and afterwards there was a serious hemorrhage of the mouth.

Her daughter became worse. I A doctor was sent for, and afterwards alspecialist was called in Dr. Maohichan said he saw Miss Howarth on September 9, and on the 13th he became alarmed at her condition. He formed the opinion there was a streptococcus condition in the gums. He called in a specialist, but nothing could be done for the woman.

It was a very rare case. James Davidson, a dentist, of The Elms, Yorkshire Street, Rochdale, said Miss Howarth went to see him, and he decided to extract some teeth in the upper jaw. He formed the opinion that there was aj localised septic condition. He took all the antiseptic precautions both before and after extraction. There was nothing in the condition of the woman mouth to suggest it was dangerous to extract.

In answer to the Coroner, the witness said that 50 per cent of his patients had somi5 sePtic condition of the mouth. "he Coroner returned a verdict that death was due to cardiac failure and septicemia, i and that death was accelerated by accidental teeth extraction. LAST OF THE B.N.O.C Props to Come Under the Hammer. The last of the old British- National Opera Company will be seen on Friday, when the whole of the "props" of the company will come under the hammer of Messrs.
