PRINCESS SUFFRAGETTE.
The ranks of the English suffragettes have been added to by the Princess Sophia Dhuleep Singh, a descendant of the founder of the great Sikh Empire in India, who lives at Feltham. She considers herself an English citizen, and refused to pay a fine of £12 for not taking out government licenses for her servants, carriages, and dogs, on the giound that she would not recognise a fine imposed under a law while she had no voice in the making of that law. The Princess studied at one time in the Women's Medical College of North-western University in Chicago.
