Onlooker Group Resent “Blackshirts” In New York Parade

New York, May 31.-(AP)—Jeers, catcalls and shouts of “down with Mussolini,” caused by the presence of 200 Fascisti marchers, created a disturbance in New York’s Memorial Day parade. Mounted police charged and dispersed the disturbers whose ardor, undampened by the soft rain which fell on ceremonies throughout the east, at first threatened serious trouble.

Attired in black overseas caps with black tassels, black puttees, black breeches and shoes and the symbolic black shirts, the Fascisti gathering fell in behind a band of boy scouts.

Queer Phenomena In Woking Residence.

YESTERDAY’S DOINGS.

Mr. Gerald Balfour Among the “Ghost’s” Large Audience.

[From Our Special Correspondent.]
Woking, Saturday Night.

The town of Woking is just now excited over a ghost which in several particulars presents features of novelty. Woking, except for a neighbouring cemetery. does not suggest spectres. for most of the town is new and bright sad cheerful, and the spot which the ghost —as it may for the present be called, in the of any other explanation—haunts is one of the brightest and most salubrious districts, covered with pretty modern villas.

One of these is at present occupied by Mr. George Holroyd, whose father is a member of the firm of Friary, Holroyd and Healy, the famous Surrey brewers. It is a charming house, obviously of recent date, standing in its own grounds. Its most attractive feature inside is a large hall, with a railed gallery running round it. Above this is the roof, for the house is one of two floors. This hall is the scene of the mysterious manifestations which have begun during the last fortnight.
