Europe,s Cold Wave.

BERLIN, June 1S.-While snow is falling in the Alps there are cold rains here and over q large part of Ger many. The rye now ill flower has sus- tained much damage. The fruits and vegetables which were frostbitten a few weeks ago are now suffering from excessive moisture. Cherries are espe- cially poor With short interludes of sunshine, rain has been falling for the past six weeks. To add to the discom- forts and losses resulting from the phenomenally backward spring and summer American tourists in Germany instead of distributing themselves among pleasant provincial resorts or seeking quaint or beautiful spots pre- fer to remain by their firesides in the comfortable hotels of the cities while they wait for fairer days.

 course would be virulently condemned by the incoming board (Mayor Bar low's). It was said at the time that Chief Egan and Mir Dfiggs warned MT OsRourke against giving up steady job'' if he had one at the time, assuring him that his position as doorn1an would be as brief as the life of the board that appointed him. Nevertheless ORourke took the position and Hickey went into oblivion. But the transaction was as brief as was threatened. With Mayor Barlow's board coming on deck Hick- ey's eolors f1oated once more over the door at the police station, and there they have been since excepting at inter yals few summers ago, when the bi- cycle fad was in it's prime and the scorcher was the terror of fin de siecle civilization. Hickey distinguished him. self in this period as fast rider on wheel. That he will be an efficient po- liceman is generally known. Hickey is a native and was born in the Brook lyn district June s, 1872.

He was born on March %, 1869. and was appointed to the special police force on March 12, 1901. He is therefore a new man in public life. His first police duty was uone during the smallpox period. He comics before the people ! with the record of a sturdy and honest young man whose chief ambition is to provide maintenance for his family.
 He is said to be popular among his fel- low employees. the best recommenda- ton one could desire.

 Isle. His application for the appoint ment he has just received is dated Feb rualy ?. of this year. He is pretty well known about the city He has been i'll one or two business ventures in q way that left him room to develop.

In Praise of New Zealand

LONDON, June 1S.-At the annual New Zealand banquet which was held in London last night R. J. Seddon, the prime minister of New Zealand, who is one of the most interesting personali- ties among the colonial premiers, gave a glowing description of the conditions of the colony, which, he said, had pushed social reform to the verge of what many outsiders considered to be radical socialism. Time had demon strated the soundness of. this economic experiment., continued the premier, with the result that today New. Zea- iand had little crime and no poverty, everybody had employment, and the New Zealanders were happy, free and enlightened people.

Both of the new policemen are well known young men. Mir Hickey has been doorman at the police station for a number of years. He always ap- peared to be a favorite of Chief-of- Police Egan and at one time this mat ter was the subject of much comment. Many were of the opinion that Chief Egan was justified in his preference in that Hickey made an efncient officer. Hickey was appointed on October 20, 1896. and immediately after was select ed as doorman at the police station by Chief Egan For short time he was relegated to oblivion by the action of Mayor Kilduff's first board of safety. who. in almost their expiring breath. it may be said, appointed John O'Rourke in his place. sGeorge <. Driggs, one of the republican members of the board.

at Dover yesterday and issued a call
for a delegate election preparatory to
the State Convention. Numerous af-
fairs pertaining to an active campaign
were discussed. though the date of the
County Convention was left open. A
member stated after the meeting that
the Regulars in Kent were preparing
to make the most aggressive campaign
of years. and that ample encourage
ment had been received from Union
Republicans who are tired ofthe pres
ent leaders of the Addicks party.
Said he: I'VE have been consistent
in our fight against J. Edward Addicks,
believing he was totally unfit to repre-
sent the party and the State at Wash
ington. So far we have confined our
fight to the legislative candidates, and
have elected the county tickets by our
votes. In return we have received
nothing but abuse. and we are tired Of
building up the Addicks machine We
propose TO stop it."
