WIIKKK WASjTHK SENTKY? Tbe Ancient Mural Pnlntlns Spoiled by Vandals. London, March 19. It has just boon discovered that tho ancient Mural paint ing found somo years ago at Windsoi Pnctlo nnd inaortfld in the wnll of tht Albert chapel, noar the cloister's en trance has been wantonly damaged, the glass covering having been broken and the painting punctured with somo sharp instrument. The discovery has caused a sensation as the cloister where the act of vandalism was committed was watched nightly by a sentry from the palaci guard. There is a suspicion that th outrage could not have been committed without the knowledge of the sentn who, however, failed to report it, and who now cannot offer anv explanatioi ns to when or by whom the offenso wai l.erpetrated.
