Harold Whitehead, a Richford boy,
narrowly escaped electrocution Monday
when he seized an electric wire which
ran from one house to another. Young
Whitehead, with other boys, was play
ing on a roof, when he thoughtlessly
grabbed the wire and then could not let
go. The insulation had worn off, max
ing it dangerous. The boys cries
brought help and a stick was used to jar
the wire from his hands. He was not
seriously injured. Someone telephoned
to have the electric current shut off. but
the message was misunderstood and in
stead a FIRE alarm was tnrned in, which
caused little excitement.

Monarehs In Mourning.

Periods of court mourning are apt to
be regarded with something akin to
alarm 10y people in the official social
world, for court mourning means to
them submission to published rules
and regulations, from which there is
no appeal,
In most eastern capitals white gar
ments are the usual sign Of mourning,
and purple is frequently in Europe
given preference to black. Mourning,
of course, is strictly enforced in the
court Of st. James; also in that at
Madrid and in the Austrian court. AT
the latter, by the way, etiquette is ex-
aggerated to an extreme.
At the court of Berlin, where cere-
mony is regarded as the language of
power, the blacklist of mourning Is
worn during the day, but not in the
evening. The empress objects to black
evening frocks and insists on her la
dies wearing white dresses trimmed
with black.
In Denmark also black is not allow
ed but the wives of high officials and
of noblemen are permitted to wear
high peaked headdress when in mourn

She has figured so closely that she

She has to think twice, and to count,

Straining the purse for so little pleas

She would have to have an extra shirt

skirt. She reckons if she had to spend
that much for additional clothes and
board that she might as well try to get
in at the village hotel, where she would
see people. The evenings will be live

like.
After she has sent her letter Of in.

that she could not participate in the
dances of which she was so fond in her
brilliantine skirt. She would require a

means white slippers as well and some

by the police, and this was of man
who figured too prominently in little

but who was later turned loose.
During the three days there was not

burglary or any other criminal case re-

number of people who were in Salem
last week, this record alone is one for
Salem to be proud of.
