FEROCIOUS BEASTS AFFRIGHT BATHERS Shallower Beaches in South- em Pacific Dangerous for Summer Sydney, N.8.W., 'May 21.--Fer- oclpus sharks, giant octopl, and t water crocodiles hive given a dangerous aspect recently to shal- Jower sections of muc Southern Pacific, which hitherto haye been free from these men- aces. ' ; T. Vangioni while swimming in Akarga Harbor, New Zealand, en- dured terrifying , agony in the grip of tentacles of a glant oct pus. A friend dived into the water on beat off the sea brute with a club, Vangioni being on the point of 'collapse when rescued. e sald he had dived into deep water when what he described as two devil's eyes, glowing and fer- ocious, seemed to dart down upon him, and even before the tentacles grasped him he felt utterly power less. An uncanny fascination or paralyzing horror made him al- most incapable of effort against the muscular and tehacious grip. Almost more terrifying than the amazing strength of the tentacles was an overpowering sensation, as of "live electric wires, which they geémed to impart, but whether this was real or dune to 'terrified imagination he could not say.

HINESE BOYCOTT WORKS WRONG WAY Given Advantage to Japanese in Philippine Islands Manilla, Philippines,, May 21. The boycott of Japanese goods vhich China have sought to make pifective in other countries as vell as in Chima, hag proved a boomerang in the Philippines, pays Koygo Yonegaki, Japanese onsul here. The boycott has given Japanese merchants an opening . wedge in he retail business of the islands, field which is 80 per cent Chin- pse controlled and at the same ime has not hurt Japanese wholo- ale business. A number of new Japanese retail stores have been pperated in the principal cities. The consul says that the Chin- bse merchants have not stopped puying Japanese goods; they are merely buying them indirectly, he- ause the Chinese anti-Japanese ssociation will not permit tham 0 purchase openly. This is costly 0 the Chinese and has. enabled e Japanese retailers to undersell he Chinese. of the], Windsor, May 21.--Within three months a little, scattered debris will remain to mark the site of the May 2 2% July 2% , CAE Te bd June 12 July 10 London, May 21.--The Metro- politan police force of London, the world's most fanfous police de- partment, is also one of the very youngest, This bit of mews--doubtless a surprise to many who look on the traditionally-efficient London police ag one of those old stand- bys of British civilization . like roast beef and a powerful navy--- is emphasized by the fact that the force has just celebrated the 100th anniversary of its organization. Before 1829 London, instead of being one of the best-policed cities in the world, was one of the worst. : It was split into a wide group of different boroughs each with its own police force, and each stolidly indifferent to what went on outside its own boundaries.
