Local Notes.


a characteristic story of American
enterprise comes from London, and it
has to do with the death of the late
King Edward
The proprietor of one of London's
greatest department stores is an Amer
lean. Several weeks before the death
of his majesty this merchant, realizing
that inevitable dissolution was near
ut hand, prepared himself for the rush
for mourning goods, sure to follow that
sad and untoWard event, by buying
large quantities of goods suitable for
mourning and rushing to the dye mills
for proper. preparation much of his
stock then on hand The consequence
was that when his ma iesty did pass
away this merchant prince sold goods
by the hundreds of thousands OF
pounds, while other London merchants
We're vainly endeavoring to meet an
emergency plainly indicated, that they
had carelessly failed, nevertheless, to
prepare for.
There is nothing in the least that
smacks necessarily of the grewsone in
this very likely story. At first blush
there may appear to be something a
tride uncanny in the discounting of a
persons death, as this merchant did
the kings; and yet he merely met nat
ural conditions as he found them, act
ed intelligently upon them, and achiev-
ed a result highly creditable to his
business judgment and discernment In
England it has long been an establish
ed custom to purchase insurance on
the life of the sovereign. Why Should
not an American go this idea one bet
ter, so to speak, and seek a legitimate
profit in the passing away of a public
figure OF first Importance and whose
passing away he could in no wise pre-
vent Washington Herald.

Brooklyn Democratic Caucus-Even-

The following story in a Boston

"Patrolman Edward J. Mcmahon,
who has never fully recovered from
bullet wound received during the ia
maica Plain yegg raid two years ago,
was given a severe beating by Two
holdup men early today on Moreland
street, near Warren. in Roxbury, as
he was on his way home. The ponce
man, who is attached to the Dudley
street station, was robbed of SO and
three bankbookS."
In spite of the fact that he still car
ries a bullet in his abdomen and mas
been under the treatment OF physi-
clan, the policeman showed real grit
by clinging to the heavier of the two
men who attacked him. The three mad
rough and tumble fight in the street.
Finally one of the robbers made Off.

Dudley street station the prisoner said
that he was Edward Johnston of NO.

''This address and the facts in the
holdup were Immediately telephoned to

clothing at the time so the robbers

Flies and CRASH oppers.

The "strangest import which ever
has arrived at this port is 3S five-foot
bags of dried flies on their way to
Germany from the West Indies. 1t is
easier to say what Germany wants Of
the flies than why it went to Santa
Cruz for them Our imports from San
ia Cruz come in bottles for ourselves
rather than in bags for our poultry.
But why should Germany go further
than the United States for its chicken
feed? Our supply of flies would meet
any possible demand, and our chickens
get so much better feed that they
would willingly allow their rations of
that sort to go to fatten the pauper
hens of Germany. In fact, our supply
of flies is so excessive in part because
our wastes are so large If we con-
stunned our food products more close
" we would breed fewer flies on the
decomposition of edibles, and perhaps
would then need to import bagged
flies ourselves to replace the present
supply of table scraps.
However, we were beginning to
