GETS $4,000 FOR BOOK
CHURCHILL PAID RECORD
PRICE FOR BIOGRAPHY.
Young Member of Parliament Writes
Life of His Father. Lord Ran
dolph Churchill.

London, Jan. 81. - Winston
Churchill-the English one-who al
ready has one or two performances to
his account which are records in
their way, must now be credited with
another. 1t seems that for his re-
Gently published life of his father,
Lord Randolph Churchill, the young
member of parliament received from
the MacMillans, the biggest price
ever paid for a work of the kind. He
got $4,000 down, with the additional
agreement that half the profits on
the box should come to him after the
publishers have pocketed $4,000 as
their share. In other words, Church
i'll has been paid at the rate of $1.25
line, or about II cents word, and
if the book sells as we'll as it is ex-
pected to do his words are likely to
produce twice that sum each.
AS it is, however, Lord Randolph S
brilliant son has gotten ahead of the
great John Morley, whose hororari-
UNI for writing his life of Gladstone,
was supposedly the highest ever paid
for although Mr.. Morley got $780,
600 for his work. it contained 1912
pages, while Churchill's biography of
his father is composed of only 1.0S6.
Other biographers are nowhere. AS
for historians, the record does not
seem to be held by any writer of late
years, but must be credited to Lord
Macauley. whose fee of $4,000 for
writing his "History of England, -
has never been approached. Of fc-
ton writers, Marie Corelli probably
still tops the list. for a book from her
pen brings in 100000 or more nova
days. and Hall Caine is not far be-
hind.

KING LIKES U. s. SYSTEM
EDWARD VII WORKS LIKE AN
AMERICAN BUSINESS MAN.
Royal Offices a Buckinham Palace
Equipped with Roll Top Desks,
and Typewriters.

London, Jan. 31.-King Edward is
one Of the largest users IN England
of American business conveniences
and labor saving devices. Quite re-
Gently he adopted the American card
index and letter filing system in deal
ing with his vast daily correspond
ence, besides having speaking tubes
of American make installed in Buck
ingham palace. American type
writer's, roll top desks, and office fur
niture are used extensively not only
at the royal residence in London, but
at Windsor Castle and Sandringham
house, the kings country seat in Nor
folk.
That King Edward is one of the
busiest men in Europe most people
are aware, but the exact methods by
which his majesty dispatches his
daily work are little known. In his
private office everything the king uses
is methodized, so to speak, down to
the last degree. His tables are ar
ranged at certain angle, and every
thing on his desks has its affixed
place. This table arrangement Is
followed wherever the king goes
whether at Sandringham, Windsor, or
even when travelling on the continent
On each desk is a tray of note paper
classified according to size and pur-
pose. This is always at the left hand
of the king. Other trays, of special
shapes, are used for letters to be an
swered and for those ready to be
signed.
The king begins his work for the
| day as soon as he is out of bed. Be-
| fore he is dressed a secretary begins
reading him the mornings kilograms
and news; specially prepared alb
stract of the important items having
been made for him by Lord Knollys
When the king has breakfasted an
engagement book is produced and his
majesty is reminded of bis "busi-
| ness'' for the day. If certair infor-

has long been at home with King Ed
ward. During the days of Queen
Victoria machine correspondence was
little used, but when the king took
charge battery Of machines was in
stalled, and they have done strenuous
duty ever since and have been in
creased largely of late. Even letters
of what would seem private charac-
ter are typed by one Of the kings sec
retaries, and only the signature or a
line or two give them that personal
character which indentifes them as
his own. In order to save the time
which would be spent in copying the
letters carbons are made of each, for
nothing leaves the palace "business
Office '-even the most unimportant
ine-unless a record is first made of
i.
Not orly is each department of the
palace connected by speaking tubes
but a special wire service, with the
most skilled and trustworthy operat-
ors, is in communication with all the
state departments. This saves in
termediate Transmission and much
time. Not only are the departments
of state connected by the wires here
referred to, but the king has a special
telephone system, SO as to be entirely
independent of outsid service. 1t is
impossible to "tap" any information
coming from or going to the palace,
as might be done were public wires
used.
All the desks at Buckinham palace
are of the typical "roll top variety,
and the king carries in his pocket a
small "master key' which will open
any of them. The same key fits the
desks at his other seats-Windsor
etc.
| Another time saving scheme intro
duced by the king into his work is the
use of colored paper for certain kinds
of business and colored envelopes are
used extensively for all kinds of work
coming under special heads.
