HUNTED BY AEROPLANE.

QUEST BY AIR, LAND,, AND SEA. A Philadelphia business man has been chased .half round the world — by ship, train, and aeroplane— by a lovesick girl. Her attentions annoyed him so that he had to appeal to the courts for protection. . . William Zinger first met Miss Beatrice Herbert, of* Montreal, while on a Trans-Pacific liner bound for the Far East last March. He says she pressed her attentions upon him so ardently that he had *to change his seat at table, and also his stateroom. • On arrival m Japan he gave her. the slip, but she found him at Hong Kong, and when he sailed for. Hawaii she turned up m the ship as a stowaway. At Honolulu the captain delivered her to the authorities, who sent her home. Last September, however, she confronted Zinger m Philadelphia. He appealed to the police, who arrested her, and she was deported with orders never to return to the United States. But she disobeyed, once more hunting him up m Philadelphia, only to be arrested and deported again.Asked how she managed to re-enter the United States, Miss Herbert replied : "Easily enough; I came by aeroplane. It cost me 200 dollars, but it was well worth ten times that amount to be near my loved one." Dr. John Egan, a police surgeon, testified that he had examined her as to her sanity, and found that she was I perfectly sane — " that ib, if anybody i deeply m love can be called sane," he . added Mr Zincrer is 25 years old- his admirer is 29.
