Athens.—The “Dragon of Fla-
melo,’’ Peter Kuinxides. a Greek
refugee from Potitus, accused of
murderiug his seven wives ufter
spending their doweries, was ar-
rested while at a tete-a-tete dinner
with a beautiful young widow whom
he had enticed, under a false name, i
to he his eighth wife. His arrest j
was effected one day before his
new marriage.
Evidence against the “Dragon'’
exists only as regards lus last wife
who was found ahdut a month ago
in an nbrt of tlie old Macedonian
trenches, in n state of decomposi-
tion, but hearing signs of brutal
violence. On the discovery of the
body Kulaxkies flsd. This aroused
the suspicion of the police who,
after investigating his past, found
that he had married seven times
and that all his wives, with the
exception of the last, had been re-
ported by him as having died "in
the country.” m
To the judge who made the tirst i
inquiries, Peter admitted lie killed
his Jast wife because she was "un-
faithful” to him, but dodged nil
accusation for the death of his oth-
er wives. Regarding his Tirst wife,
Peter said that site died "of joy"
on hearing of his release from a
prisoa term.
It is expected that the "Dragon’s”
trial before the Criminal court of
Saloniea will be sensational.

celebration of the Thrift Shop,

of well-known women in society
in diplomatic circles are con-
ducting a philanthropic aale

down the seam under the arm, so
they can be fitted to the upper
part of the figure as smoothly as
possibly.
One piece combinations and en-
velopes are meeting with competi-
tion from sets of separate panta-

U. S. Standards Bureau
Discards Carbon Lights
Washington.—Old ckrbon lights,
which have formed a “precarious”
basis for measuring light in this
country, have been discarded in
favor of a recently; discovered
“standard of light.”
The. bureau of standard* has
maintained for and carefully
saved, a few old carbon lights as
the basis of measuring cacdlepow-
er of all light. The lights have
been used infrequently to prevent
their disintegration.
Now, however, Scientists at the
bureau have developed a new pri-
mary standard of light, based upon
melting platinum In an electrie In-
duction furnace.
The new system will provide an
nnebanglng standard, they say. It
baa been recommended to the In-
ternational committee of weighte
and measures far an International
primary standard ef light.
