ENGLISH GIRL'S HONEYMOON EXPERIENCE.

Again and again have English girls been I warned of the danger of marrying foreigners of whose antecedents they ■ know nothing. Warnings, however, appear to be futile. The latest to. suffer through want of a■;•''little judicious inquiry is a young lady whb was formerly Miss Nellie Pemberton, at one time an assistant in a London cigar shop. ■ . _ _:. /'■-.,; f ,': Mliss Pemberton married an Italian named Andalo, and the pair.were in Brussels on their honeymoon . when they were arrested, the husband being suspected of jewellery thefts, and also of the attack on Miss Low, .the English curse, in the Mont Cenis tunnel. ; •' They were confined in separate cells, Signora Andalo • being kept for nearly 12 hours without food on the first day of her imprisonment, and undergoing all the degrading processes of measurement, photography, etc., to which criminals are subjected. She was only discharged after two dreary weeks of solitary confinement in a cell. Unable to speak French, she could not even exchange a word with her warder. During the examination which preceded her release, the magistrate askec* her whether she knew anything of her husband's career. It appears that in his youth he was the associate of Italian Anarchists, this being the reason why he has been deported from Belgium. She replied that she knew nothing of Andalo's history. The magistrate observed: "That is how English girls get into trouble. . They many foreigners without knowing anything of their past history." '"* " ' " *,'
