CONAN DOYLE AND WIFE TALKING T0 DETECTIVE BURNS.

 

-—.—-.gp- - . . ,. .

When Sir Conan Doyle and Lady.
I Doyle arrived in this country the first
person to greet them was William J.
,iiurus, the detective.

“Are you going to give the novelist
some ideas for calories?" Mr. Burns
was asked. »

“I guess It will be the other way
about," said he.

The best known detective in the
United States, it not in the world,
and the author of "Sherlock Holmes,"
who are old friends, had a long talk.

When asked what he thought about
the militant suflragettes in England,
he said:

 

 

 

 

 

 

:-

 

 

“The next thing that will happen to
the militants la a lynching. The
public is tired of their operations, and
its resentment will take the form of
mob hangings. The pollce,have had
their hands full on aevral occasions,
protecting the destructive wild wom-

en. 1 exect to hear of a lynching
any day.
“Ulster," he said, as some one men-

tioned home rule, “will certainly fight.
now that the Home Rule bill is assed.
They mean business 11 there. i sin

in favor of home rule, but can see
no reason why Ulster should not be
exempt.” ‘1‘-

HE IS SURE TO BEAT THE RECORD.
