VISIT TO ACADEMY.
Captain Roston, of the Carpathia, who has teturned to Europe from New York, has just broken his silence concerning the rescue of the Titanic passengers for the first time. H e has told his story to a Daily Mirror staff photographer who went out to Gibraltar to meet the Carpathia. Here are some of the points of the captain's interesting narrative : " I had just retired for the night on Sunday, April 14 when I heard someone entering my cabin without knocking. I called out ' W h o ' s t h a t ? ' and a voice replied : " ' I have just received a Marconi signal of distress from the Titanic, sjiving her position, and saying she has struck an iceberg and is sinking.' " ' A r e you sure it was the Titanic?' I asked the operator. ' Yes,' he replied. " ' Then keep m touch with them, and say we are coming to their assistance.' " I . s e n t for the chief officer, giving him the position of the Titanic and instructions to alter our course. Meanwhile the chief engineer had received instructions to make full speed ahead. " O u r average speed is about thirteen knots, but we were soon doing nineteen knots. I then sent for the doctors and heads of departments, and reading the Marconi report impressed on them the gravity of the.situation, and that everything should be got ready at once for the reception of the passengers of the Titanic, " A t this time I quite expected to reach the Titani^ before she sank. " It was splendid to watch the way in which my men went about their different duties. Blankets were warmed, boats were made ready for lowering and in'the kitchen hot soup was made. " At 2.40 a.m. I s^w from the bridge a flare and shortly afterwards sighted the first iceberg. Several times I had to alter the course of the ship to clear the bergs. At this time I had eight men on the look-out at different parts of the ship. " Never before have I experienced such an anxious time. We picked up the first boat, which contained mostly_women arid children, at 4.10 a.m., and as the survivors came aboard the .Carpathia they were met by stewards, who wrapped.them in warm blankets and escorted them to the saloon, where they were given hot soup: " I should like to mention that the passengers gave me every assistance in "caring for the survivors, many giving up their berths for the bad cases, others allowing them to sha:re. Also many ladies and gentlemen gave what spare clothes they had. WEY THE CABPATHIA WAS SILENT. " M u c h has been said in the American Press about the silence of the Carpathia while making for New York. I found it necessary to establish a censorship on the messages which were being sent, " T h i s action of mine called forth rather severe comment from the passengers. It was said that I had bought the Marconi and was using it to my own advantage in order to make money. A most wicked lie! " I had instructed the operator that he was to accept nothing but private messages and the names of" survivors. I told the passengers that they could send their Press messages a;fter this had been done. When we reached New York the operator had still about 205 messages to send. " A n o t h e r inaccuracy which appeared in the papers was that I had ignored a message from President Taft, asking tor news of his fnend Major Butt. I understand that a message was sent to the Carpathia. but it never reached us. I have written to tlie President, laying the faces of the case before h i m , "

COMEDY WITH 'SATURDAY MONEY' FOE WOMEN'S FUND OLYMPIC SEAMEN ALL DISCHARGED. CHANGED NAMES. Children's Eagerness to Help and Wonien*s Array of WonCensor Intervenes in Case of Historical Rothschild Play. A FAMOUS FAMILY.
Before " T h e FJve Frankforters " is produced at the Lyric Theatre to-morrow evening the blue pencil of the Censor will have left its indelible mark on the play. It must be whispered that the comedy, which has been adapted by Captain Basil Hood from, the Germanj deals with the rise of the House, of Rothschild, the scene being placed in Frankfort ninety years ago. But the live heroes of the play no,longer bear their original names. The keen eyes of the collective gentlemen of the I-ord Chamberlain's Department who constituted the censorship of our drama have found danger in names, and they have been changed. As t h u s : In Frankfort at the beginning of last century . lived five since famous financiers, the founders of the Rothschild family. These are the five Frankforters of the play^ who, in the original German and in Captain Hood's translation bore the names Amschei. > Charles. Nathaniel. Jacob. Solomon. Immediately after the first description of the characters was piibUshed in the Press a day or two ago instructions were, it is reported, issued trftm official quarters requiring these iive real names to be altered. A SUDDEN REQUISITION. The reasoii given or implied for -this 'sudden requisition was that the '^family" might not like the real names to be used in- the piece. These names tht,_;^ore now stand respectively a s : Michael, Ernest, and Joseph, David. Samuel, The change, of course, is not vital, but one shudders to think What might have happened in censorial quarters if the play h a d b e e n produced not only with the " family's original names, but even with the o r i g i n a l " make-ups " to match! As far as Germany is concerned^ there seems to have been no such' interference throughout the successful run of " Die Funf Frankfurter." Nor does there appear to have been any such' " requisition " with regard to a still older German play produced in the Fatherland over forty years agOj and called simply, not to say bluntly, " R o t h , fichild." FINANCIALLY BACKED ENGLAND, It may be interesting to recall some of the facts concerning the rise of the Rothschilds. The founder of the famous house was Meyer Araschel Rothschild, Amschei was born in Frankfort in 17i3 and was educated for a Rabbi. H e took to moneylending instead. In the early part of the nineteenth century Amschei and one of his sons financially backed England against Napoleon and made a million out of the transaction' Amschei left all his five sons Barons of the Austrian Empire. That was in 1822, AmscheFs son Nathan had a son Lionel, who was made an English baronet in 1885. Lionel's niece Hannah was married in 1878 to the present Earl of Rosebery.
(From Our Special Correspondent.) SOUTHAMPTON, May 5.After two hours' deliberation the magistrates who have heard the charge against fifty-three members of the crew of the Olympic of wilful disobedience of the captain's orders decided last evening at I'ortsmouth to dismiss the charge. It was just seven o'clock yesterday evening when the magistrates returned to the Bench m the Police Court at Portsmouth Town Hall, and Sir Thomas Eramsdon, who is himself a solicitor, thug addressed the accused, who stood at the back of the court in a wide semicircle : " We have decided that the plea of justification must fail and we are satisfied that the ship was quite seaworthy and that the captain had never given permission for the men to go ashore. " Therefore we are against Mr. Emanuel, for the defence, on all points, but in passing judgment we cannot drive_ out of our miftds the thought of the recent calamity. "AS HUMAN AS OTHER PEOPLE." " No doubt that had influenced you to a great e.xtent. You are just as human as other people. " I should like to see the feeling of confidence between the members of the crew and the White Star Company completely restored, and hope that the men will be_^take back to work, " I cannot think that the White Star Company wish to see the men punished. We feel that we cannot send these men to a term of imprisonment, nor do we think we should inflict a fine. " W e have powers under the Probation Act for First Offenders, but we feel that the interests of justice will be met by dismissing the information. " T h i s cannot be looked upon as a victory for the men^ for we have fonnd you guilty of wilfully disobeying the lawful commands of the captain." Mr, S. H . Emanuel' in his concluding speech for the defence in the afternoon emphasised the admission of Captain M. H , Clark, the IJoard of Trade surveyor here (who, by the way, is not the Captain Clarke of the Board of Trade appointed an assessor on the Titanic Inquiry Commission), that it was no part of his duty to examine the Berthon collapsible boats on board the Olympic, but only to see that the boat drill was properly carried out. "SHIP MANNED BY SCALLYWAGS." " H e does not pretend that he made any inspection of them at a l l , " .said Mr, Emanuel. " The real trouble was d u e t o temper and want of fact on the part of the While Star officials, " I submit to you that the men had a perfect right to do what they_ did, becaiise they had reason to believe the ship was going to sea with an incompetent crew. " They did not see their way to risk their lives in a ship manned by all the scallywags of Portsmouth, known to the police tnrroiighont this borough, men whom no one cares to associate with, and men who never ought to have been taken on board that ship without some sort of inquiry. " This is not a case of mutiny. It was not until these guttersnipes of Portsmouth went on board that these respectable men said: ' W e refuse to sail with incompetent and incapable men.' " The men wrote to Captain Haddock before leaving the ship, and told him how sorry they were to have to leave, and these are now deeply sorry that they had to leave the Olympic, but they still repeat that nothing will induce them to sail in one of this line's -ships unless with a competent crew." The fifty-three accused left the court and returned later in the evening to Southampton, where each man received 10s, at the offices of the British Seafarers' Union. It would have been 20s. apiece, b u t a s it was long after banking hours there was only a limited amount of cash available. I am informed that thirty-one firemen from p,among the large number who left the Olympic at sailing time last Wednesday week have signed on for the White Star liner Oceanic, leaving next Wednesday.

Sherwin's 80 Working Girls. Elders to Study School Life at Juvenile Conference. Spend 300 a Year on Clothes. Be Cremated,
Ixindon factory girls gave their first choral concert on Saturday evening. Mme. Amy Sherwin, who discovered the little singing waif now known to all concert-goers as Stella Carol,,went down recently into just such a slumland as that from which her little protegee came and gathered round her a score of factory girls. It was her aim,,as reported in T/ie Daily Mirror at the time, to teach them to sing good music. That score has since grown into fourscore, and the concert -"at Claremont Hall, Penlonville-road, showed what good material Mme. Sherwin has successfully developed. She herself conducted the choir of eighty girls, who thronged the platform and the gallery above, and thoroughly did the singing girls enjoy themselves. They sang six songs in all, finishing with " The Admiral's B r o o m " with a spirit and verve that was good to behold and good to bear, Their indomitable teacher, who rose from a sick bed so as not to disappoint her girls of their concert, spoke to The Daily Mirror of the wonderful enthusiasm of the girls which has made it possible for them to give a concert after so fewlessons, " W h e n I give a fresh piece of music out on one Monday," said Mme, Sherwin, " I can be quite sure that they will have learnt it thoroughly before I come again a-week later for the next_ lesson. " I regard these singing lessons to a considerable extent as exercise for them. It teaches them to breathe properly, and that is a ^reat thing in a neighbourhood where lung trouble is so prevalent," During the interval,one of,the girls came bashfully out of the choi'r and presented to madame a bouquet they had bought between them. The death was announced yesterday of th Right Rev. Charles William Stubbs, Bishop of Truro. Dr. Stubbs had been iJ! for some time past, and wrongly last During the week-end the strike of London tailors his 'death was twice few weeksreported,, the late time being only a ago.

An .immediate increase.to all workers ol 83. a week, Better workshop accommodation. " I have four customers who regularly spend over ri6300 a year each on their clothes," was the remarkable statement made by Mr, Morris, the wellknown Sackville-street tailor, in discussing the extravagances of the modern Beau Brummell with The Daily Mirror. " I have in niind one man who comes to me twice a year, and this is his usual annual order: Twelve to fifteen ordinary lounge suits, &t Ties. each. Twenty tanoy waistcoats, at 2g3. each. Four or five overcoat?, at 7^gs. to 12gs, each, Two evening dress suits, at 12gs, each. Two dinner Jacket suits, at llgs. each..

I have a young bank cleric on my bookshe cannot be making very much moneywho spends a surprising amount oh his war(irobe. " H e cannot go in for high-priced clothes, but on the following yearly order he is able to-take his place among the best-dressed men in town; ^ Five BUita at 3lg3. eacli, Ttiree overcoats at 3igs. each.

Bemarhafclc Scries of Prolonged Practical Tests Demonstrates Beyond Dispute His Discovery of an Incredibly Important Preparation Which Will Prove To Be an Outstanding Benefaction to the Age. " Ail 'wear boots and shoesall know what it is fo wear them outto frequently pay the shoemaker or cobbler for soling repairs, As a rule, any ordinary pair of boots are thuB mended about twice, at a cost, ranging, say, f;om 2s to is,, each time. .To-day the good news is told to " D a i l y M i r r o i " readers 1.

There are no " i f s " or " b u t s " about this statement,- for it is the outcome of prolonged and patient research and trial by Professor Normail Wallace, of a hew preparation he has discovered, which, applied to new bootsor, boots in. decent repairrwill render them proof against wear and tear, and dlso absolutely waterproof every sole. ^ But as the discoverer quainily, but truly, says, it will not grow new boots, or put soles on worn-out ones. , This is most excellent hewsgratifying to tl degree, for froni facts and figures supplied it ap^ pears that it costs but 6d. per pair, to treat any pair of boots, in order that they may become pracally irresistible to w^ear and permanently waterproofs 1 . Every sensible man and woman will recognise the public importance of this discovery, Boots to last twice as long-;-boots to need n<t expensive repairing {always excepting damage t 6 and wear of the tippers, for it is not wished to mislead in th slightest). And it seems that simplicity itself marks the manner of application, for even a child caii follow the instructions, and thus concert any pai of boots i.nto " doublc-lji,fe,'^ " twice-as-long," and " wear-and-tear " r e s i s t i n g alrticles..

PAET II.Pilgrim's P r o g r e s s .
CHAPTER XX. Isobel gasped. Her face was deathly white, " Vou are not married ! " " ' . . " N o . " ItuUard laughed rather harshly. " W h a t tirade you think so? " " I saw it in the newspaper." " W h a t did it say? To whom was I m a r r i e d ? " " T o a Mrs. Octavia Frayne, the woman to whom Lady Rye left her Rhodesian property." ",It's an infernal lie. How on earth could it " have got hito the papers?, Mrs. Fray'ne is my Neighbourin a Rhodesian sense. Her house is about five miles from my bunfjalow." Isobel caught her brea'-h. It hurt her. Then, when he sat and played. His banjo in the evenings he was alone !. . . . " T h a n k you for telling me,", he went on, " I milst see to it at once. It is too ridiculous,., It might cause Mrs. Frayne annoyance. Some of these South African journalists are the very dickens for gossip. The English papers must have got some lying wire." _ , ^ Isobel moistened her lips before she spoke. ^ " Then there's nothing in.it? " " Nothing at rtll." ., H e said no inore. He volunteered flo information. H e left her under the impression that it was pierely a piece of idle Eossip, fabricated by an irresponsible reporter. He did not tell her that he adored Oetavia Frayne and that she persistenlly refused to listen to his suit. He did not tell her jthat he was proving himselfj that he was ordering his whole life in order to win her respect, without whiuh. he knew he could never win her hand, even though she might already have given him her heart. " You are a friend of Mrs, Frayne's, I suppose?" Isobel asked, striving to make her voice sound natural. _. .. . " I hope .. wo.uld allow me to call inyself that," he said. " Mrs. Frayne is a very wonderful woman. She'is one of my co-trustees in the administration of Lady, Rye's fortune for the benefit of Rhodesia." " I s she very clever?" " Not- brainy like yoiij" he answered frankly. '* She is, more intuitive. She sees things. . In the old days she would have bee.n a prophetess. [ And then she has enormous adniinistrative ability. The agricultural college" is developing marvellously under her control. Then she is a splendid talker.' She ought to have been a barrister, I tell her. She has spent days arguing with the authorities, until .now they are allowing us practically a free hand with our section of the country.'' ;'S]i must be wonderful," said.Isobel. " Y o u think a great deal of her? " " O h yes, I do." But- he did not give her the impression that he thought the one all-impoirtant thing about Octavia Frayne. . When he had gone,.she gave herself up for a.time to a paroxysm of passionate misery. She went into her studio and locked herself in and lay on her big couch, writhing in physici)l and mental torture, Her soul descended into the nethermost depths, and for ever afterwards it would bear the scars of that hour of anguish. S!ie was not religious, aithough she ^lad-always practised her faith i but she cried aloud t p h e r God to release her, to end this torture, to let her die. She cast herself upon His mercy, for in that hour she was weak as the smallest child, and she,knew the hopeless futility of the things of this world and the utter uselessness of any human aid. . Gradually she grew calmer, and iii a way her prayers vyere answered, for a certain'strcngth came and.abode in her delicate and pain-ridden frame. She ceased to rebel;' She realised that she must jesign herself; she must pay the penalty of her haste. Billiard, was free, but she was tied. She had promised to marry Leopold Verniger, and she would have to^keepher bjirgain. With \\tt people an engagement is almost as binding as marriage, Besides, she had a pride of her own. She had deliberately offetad herself to this man old enough to be her father in order to save herself, in her own mmd, from the reproach of being forsaken, by Joshua Buliard. H e had accepted her in all good fatth. She was not going back on her word. What.ever Isobel's deeds had been hitherto, they had been dictated by impulse, by her emotions of the moraeQt. by a ceUain ferocious and primitive strain in her nature. But she had never been ashamed of thm- S h e would have been ashamed of herself if she had jilted Leopold Verniger simply because she discovered that she hud made a mistake and that Joshua BuUard was free, . Thus did she; too, set her feet upon the pilgrim's path, upon that hard and stony way that leads upwards through storm and stress and.denial and suffenng-to the kingdom, tlie lOnging for which is hidden deep in every man's breast. . And for her there was'as yet no sign of the spires of the Celestial City.

master told him to say he would be sure to call for you.at a quarter to seven." Isobel.remembered then that Verniger was coming to take her to dinner; and that they were going on to the opera to hear the Walkiire. There was an autumn seasori at Covent Garden, and they were giving some wonderfiil performances of the great Wagnerian music drama. It was only seven-months since her father's death, but Isobel had never been conventional, and she went to small, quiet restaurants and sat behind the curtains of a box in the theatre if she,was minded to. In that, she knew s.he would have had her father's approval. She told her maid to take the ilowers and the package up to her dressing-room. " It is quite the time to dress, Miss Isobel," the girl informed her. " V e r y well, I will come at once." While the maid brushed out her hair, she opened the package, and found a jeweller's case, as she had guessed, and inside it pearl's that even she had hardly ever seen before. She did not want them, but they were so beautiful that she coukl not but admire them. She slipped them around her throat; they lay in.three strands heavily on liter skin. She wore a high dress, transparent at,the throat, and she had it fastened over the pearls, so that tKey shimmered milkily through the .gauzy stuff. The day before Verniger had sent^ her the betrothal ring. It' savoured more of sentimefit than display for it was a very thick- gold band,- set with one single flawless diamond, and inside vver? Hebrew characters, signifying love .and faith and the per manence of the Ijond that united hef to him He hadshoi-fed up niuch"betier than she had expected Even in the few hours that h'a^l passed since their betrothal he had won m o r e of h e r r e s p t c t She was ready when he came,fo fetch her, and greeted him with cordiajity.' In adclres'^itig him she never allowed the dragging note of cool imper tinence to take .prominence in her voue She could but be pleased.with the arrangements he had made for'her comfort at dinner. .-He had chosen a sm.all restaurant, .renowned for its cuisine. A screen was placed roifnd her chair; . the food ordered was of the simplest, but perfectly cooked, Verniger 'himself never touched wine, but some champagne was in,ice for her. She drank a glass because, if helped her to talk. She found, him a surprisingly congenial companion. Before she had never seen him except onbusiness. Now he blossomed out as a- real conversationalist, a. man who had travelled far and wide_ivnd 'witn his eyes open.' At the same tinie, in certain ways he was as simple as a child,' and when she thanked him "for the pearls, and he looked at thep^ ,shinxmerin^,,,on her neck, she believed, there were tears, in his. eyes. ' She'was-still very weak, and he had had a big arm'-ehair place'd in the box. *It was exactly opposite the one hei* father had always'occupied, and Ispbel,who was in a sa;d mood, felt a pang, as she recalled the saturnine, sneering face, with the long. hair'sweeping.lhe vei,vet collar.of the old-fashioned dress-coat and the vivid-red flbw,er a l ^ t y s iii the buttonhole. [ She -was glad she would not have to talk; and,'fhdugji the.music is not'exactly soothing, it soo.thed he>, for thfc-long sonorous recitatives, allowed Ijer tp withdraw herself.into some distant place where she tried to review her hfe-as it had beeh and as it was going to_ be,. And it was a place of punishment and'pam, just as the rock o,h which the disc 7di^nt Walkiire "was laid by 'Wotan was a "place (Jr-punishment by annihilation of her personality, until some lover bold enough should pierce the ring of fire to aw'aken her to !ile again. Poor Isobel would have chosen th^ , Walkiire's int a hundred times over, if the choice had been offered her. Better total extinction than this burden that weighed her down. It,made it no easier to bear that she had fastened it on herself, Verniger drove her home. She was tired out, .and let him do all the talking. She only said one thing during the whole drive. " Y o u were wro'i^ about Mr. Bullard's.Riarriage, Leopold-'' - , ', " * . .; " I s that so? Have you seen h i m ? " . " Yes^-he called this afternoon. ' He is not married.'. I saw. it in the paper as .well. But it is a mistake." " O h , well,'I should think "the. lady hjfshad a lucky escape." Isobel said nothing. Verniger had no, idea- of what her relations with Bu!lard'_had been. ,-He had never known the reason of" her; visit to his rooms on the night of-her'father's death. As he parted from her on the steps pf her house, he Bent his head und whispered: "Isobel, shall it be next monthsav, in the first week"so that I can get a whole montli with you io the.soulh? I s h a l l have to be back in harness in January. We have the Moranian railway to push through." ' _ ' _ ^ " As you l i k e , " ^ h e said, with a smileun wl^ich, if he had only-'/knOwn it, was something, o i heroism. - ,", I hate to think of you'aione in this big house."
