Ome Ee In New Zealand Prohibition Is a Political Issue Every Third Year. By Roger Batchelder. “New Zealand js closely watching @e working of the Prohibition Law f& the United States, as the success or failure of that law here is expected to Getermine the course to be followed in My country," says L. A. Bone, a mer- ehant of Hawera, Teranaki Province, Zealand, who, with Mrs, Bone, Is the Waldorf-Astoria, en route to England. Mr. Bone {s one of the orig- fal promoters of the Prohibition Movement in New Zealand, which be- gan twenty-five years ago, and which Fesulted in the last election in twelve Provinces in a total!of seventy-three Boing dry hy local option, “Prohibition has been voted upon every three years during the last ity-five years,’ said Mr. Bone. rmerly three-fifths of the total votes cast were required to make a Province dry, but now a majority only fs required. And if a majority of the Provinces vote for Prohibition, then the law will apply for the entire coun try. Two elections have been held with only a majority vote required, but Fesults have been worse for the Pro- Ribition advocates than when three- fifths of the votes were required. “Our provinces often vote for Pro- Weibition at one election and then at the next election three years later * they will go wet again, Prohibition Probably always will be a political question in New Zealand, for those favoring it or those against it can al- ways bring it to the polls every three “Newspaper despatches to New Zea- Yand give the impression that Prohibi- tion in the United States is a failure: hat liquor ts abundant and that crime the use of drugs have increased ve made only surface observations ring a recent visit in California and @ trip across the country, but I have @een nothing tending to bear out the ee a ee reports received in New Zealand."

A fortune awaits the lawful heir of William Booth. Who William Booth was, who his relatives are, where they are and whether there are any, are questions puzzling a Brooklyn bank and the police authorities of Newark, N. 3. William Booth was born in England; settled in Newark, N. J., and in 1897 he opened a savings account in a Brooklyn bank. He never returned und the original deposit and interest has grown into a goodly sum. George Divine of No. 302 Carlton Street. Brooklyn, searcher for the bank, has sought for the heir or heirs for twenty-one years, He has found out only that twenty years ago Booth lived at No. 281 Jefferson Street and died tn 1901. John W. Goods, super- intendent of Fairmount Cemetery, where Booth was buried, sald Smith & Smith, undertakers, had charge of the funeral. Smith & Smith had destroyed all papers that would lead to the iden- Ufication of the person who paid the expenses. Newspaper files disclose no death notice, or an obituary, though William Booth was a member of St. Albans Lodge, No. 68, F. and A. M., of Newark. en TWO NEW YORKERS .
