The murder record of London's police
district is most remarkable. During the
past year only 90 murders were committed
and these in population Of the city and
its suburbs Of six millions and half OF
people. AS compared with the record Of
our metropolis, New York, the number Is
very small, for rarely week passes there
without a murder case. What Is more re-
markable still in the London record is the
number Of convictions In four Of the 90
cases, the murderers committed suicide.
10 al the other eases the murderers we're
apprehended, and Of these, nine were
hanged and four we're adjudged insane
The London police appear to be an organ
ization worthy Of emulation In the United
States

Don c. Hall began an engagement
of three performances at the New
Crawford theatre las, night. With
long black hair reaching nearly to
his waist, this player, under medium
size, with the methods of a tragedian
created no small amount of interest
in the first night audience assembled
to hear Rudolph the Cripple.
1t was this very originality which
proved most attractive to those
present. Mr.. Halls unusual APP
pearance created much comment and
the fact that he is the author of the
play lent additional interest. 1t is a
costume drama with the scene laid in
Florence, and has religion as a
principal theme. How well Mr..
Hall wrought in writing and acting
was attested by the frequent applause.
Mrs. Hall as Francisco shared the
honors and Carrie Croker enacted a
nun well, with proper repression. G.
