Longevity in England.

The death rate in the Peak Of Derby
shire is so low that The district rivals in
saIubrity the American village which
was so extraordinarily healthy that the
inhabitants who wished to shuttle off

Buxton is nine per coo; at the adjacent
hamlet Of Flash it is said that death

He and His Roommate Robbed of Their

The thieves of this city are becoming
bolder through their success and seem
determined to scoop everything that
there is any chance for them to acquire.
In carrying out this policy one of them
paid nocturnal visit on Thursday night
to the room of r. E. Hodges, clerk of
one of the Assembly committees, who
rooms at the Golden State House.
On that night Hodges retired to bed,
with his roommate, with an accumula-
ton OF hard-earned wealth in his inside
pocket. on rising in the morning he
found to his dismay that his suit of
clothes had vanished during the night, to-
gether with S226 of his treasury reserve.
His roommate on investigation also
found himself minus diamond pin and
ring and Sl7 in coin.
How the midnight marauders gained
an entrance is mystery to the victims.
Suspicion rests on several hard cases who
have been hanging around the house

Bad Arithmetic.

EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN: Your article on
the county salary raise yesterday, in
which prominent county official'' has
his say, has an error that is no credit to
the prominent official.' He says that
while the raise of salaries in the omnibus
bill is S2l, 500, the officers takes in Sl2, 900
of fees for the treasury, therefore the in
arithmetic for a county official. The
Sl2,0O0in fees is collected now, so that sum
must be counted off on both sides of the
account and a raise of S2l, 800 is still a
raise of just S2l, 500. Any school boy can
understand so simple a sum in addition
and subtraction. Besides the people paw
the fees as well as the salaries-it all
comes from the taxpayer. DELos.
