A SPECIAL EDITION FOR THE DYING PEER London Newspaper Printed News of Recovery, But Curzon Never Read It. London, March 21.--There is a story behind Lord Curzon"s death yesterday morning that is probably without. precedent in British journal- ism. For days the statesman has been lying on his sick bed, fully conscious. Every morning he appealed for his favorite newspaper, and every morn- ing his physicians, fearful of the ef- fect their own published bulletins recording the gravity of his illness might have on their patient were forced to refuse his request. On Thursday it was seen he had entered upon the last phase of his heroic struggle with death. The physicians, searching for every pos- sible means to buoy up the dying marquis, appealed to the paper in question. : It fs not usual for a great London daily to be willing to halt its presses, but the editors replied that they would issue a special edition of one copy announcing Lord Curzon's re- covery. And so, while Lord Curzon's life was slowly fading, this special "bed- side edition" was prepared. But almost at the moment the huge presses had turned out their message of encouragement the end came. The one-copy edition was never read by the one for whom it was published. THE DENNISTOUN CASE.
