CAN BE EASILY GORED
TUNNEL ENGLISH CHANNEL.
To Be Considered Imper•ial De-
fence Committee.
The long debated question of a
tunnel under the Channel from Eng-
land: to Franee._is receiving much • at-
tention in British Parliamentary
circles, and the question will probably
be submitted to the Committee of Im-
perial Defence. The Westminster
Gazette discusses the tunnel scheme
as follows:
"We believe that the tunnel can
be so protected as to make its con-
struction a large net increase of our
power to eo-operate with an ally in
Europe, and to provide us with a new
route which will greatly facilitate and
cheapen transport and supply of
troops in time of war without depriv-
ing us of the security which the sea
offers. Experience in this war has
furnished a great many new reasons
for providing us with such a means of
Communication, if these conditions are
.fulfied. The tunnel; moreover, would
be a door not only into France, but
into Europe generally, and from Eu-
rope to us, From all these points of
view it must be an unqualified good,
and we can do nothing but welcome a
project which will mitigate our in-
sularity without depriving us of the
advantage of being an island."
Mechanical Transport had an exciting
story to tell of his adventures while
serving with a "Tank" on the Somme.

Friends of Royalty.
Sir David Beatty and his wife are
said to enjoy to an unusual degree
the friendship of King George and
Queen Mary. They have been neigh-
bors for several Summers, for Lady
Beatty leased a castle near Balmoral,
where the Beattys frequently enter-
tained the King and Queen. The
friendship of the two ladies is said
to be all the more remarkable in view
of the Queen's well-known dislike of
divorcees, and Lady Beatty before be -
corning the wife of the British sailor
was Mrs. Arthur M. Tree, of Chicago,
whom she divorced, and who has since
died, though at the time when Queen
Mary showed marked pleasure in
Lady, Beatty's society her first hus-
band was living. Notwithstanding the
Royal favor which Sir David is known
to possess, it has never been hinted
that his rapid promotion has had any
other cause than his own merits. No-
body is jealous of him; officers and
men alike rejoice that he should have
been given supreme command of the
Grand Fleet, and have the utmost con-
fidence that under Beatty they will be
given an opportunity of renewing that
argument with Germany which was
disappointingly broken off in the
Skager Rack.
Praise for Jellicoe.
In the American papers which have
commented upon the changes there
is a general disposition to give Sir
John Jellicoe full praise, and to real -

Some Incidents in the Life of the New
Commander of the British
Navy.
There has been 'much intelligent
comment in the leading American pa-
pers upon the recent changes in the
British navy commands, which are
universally approved. It is natural
that any promotion for Sir David
Beatty should give satisfaction in the
United States, for the Admiral's wife
was Miss Field, of Chicago, the only
daughter of the late. Marshall Field.
Sir David, morebver, has many
friends in the American navy, for he
associated with them at the time of
the Boxer rising in China, when he
was in command of the battleship
Barfleur. Cnnlifie Owen in the New
York Times says that he showed great
pluck and resourcefulness in connec-
tion with the capture of two Chinese
batteries. At the head of two hun-
i dred bluejackets he was twice wound -
