GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.-No. 261.
Information having been received of the death of His Majesty the Emperor (FREDERICK) of Germany, His Excellency the Governor, in anticipation of the specially deep feeling which will be created by this event, has directed that, in addition to other marks of respectful sympathy which are usual on such occasions, all flags on Government buildings shall be kept at half-mast, until notice has been received of the conclusion of the funeral obsequies.
His Excellency has further intimated his desire that during the same period there should be generally worn in the Colony such signs of mourning as are consistent with health in a tropical climate.
