PREPARING FOR CORONATION.
STRANGE SIGHTS MOW SEEN OS
LONDON'S STREETS.
Indian Prince* and Other Potentate*
Are Nnmerons— Maharajah of Jey-
Itore Provided With Slaughter
House of His Otvn Where Hindn
Butchers Prepare His Meats In
Orthodov Mahonimednn Style.
Peeresses Will Be Gaily Decked In
Costly and Historic Costumes.
London, June 7. —As the date of the
coronation approaches London is as
suming a beflagged aspect, the early
extent of which is to-night no little de
cree due to the peace rejoicing. The
Indian and other foreign princes, with
Oriental costumes in the royal car
riages, are sights to which London is
becoming daily accustomed. The feed
ing of these notabilities almost drives
the court functionaries to despair. That
most orthodox of Hindu potentates, the
Maharajah of Jeypore, who is living In
stately confinement at Moray Lodge,
has commanded a complete renovation
of a neighboring slaughter house, even
to the tiooring, which is now exclusively
devoted to killing animals required by
the Maharajah and his enormous suite.
All the slaughtering operations are
naturally conducted by Hindu butchers,
who enshroud the slaughterhouse with
amusing secrecy, much to the disap
pointment of the local residents.
Despite the strict orders issued re
garding the uniformity of the dresses
to be worn by peeresses at the corona
tion service, there will be seen the
countless variations that art and
money can devise without actual dis
obedience to royal commands. All the
dresses must be white, but many la
dles, determined to make their dresses
distinctive of the occasion and to pre
serve them as heirlooms, are having
gowns embroidered with coats of arms,
national flowers and other devices.
These are being executed in gold and
silver, here and there touched with the
forbidden colored silk, in order to bring
out the badge of a clan or an ancient
heraldic quartering. Gold embroidery
down the sides of dresses and on shoul
der straps is also much employed,
many persons exactly copying the pic
tures of costumes worn by their ances
tors on the occasion of a previous cor
onation. The Countess of Shrewsbury,
mother of the earl of polo fame, will
appear, with the exception of hoops,
in an exactly similar dress to that
worn by the Countess of Egiingtoun
when George 111 was crowned.
NEW KIRK'S LIBERAL DEMOCRATS
KaiiKaM City Platform Reaffirmed
and David B. Hill Denonneed a* a
Traitor.
New Yora, June 7.—A state conven
tion of the Liberal Democratic party,
which indorses the Chicago and Kan
sas City platforms, was held here to
day to nominate a state ticket. The
nominations will secure place on the
official ballot by petition, as the party
had no ticket in the field at the last
election. Hev. Dr. Livingston of Gou
verneur, N. Y., mentioned the name of
the late e'x-Qov. John P. Altgeld in his
prayer and the name was applauded.
The permanent chairman, Judge Sam
uel Seabury, said the Republican party
had been the chief factor in encourag
ing monopoly and that the Democratic
party should be the chief factor in
providing a remedy.
Jay W. Forrest of Albany devoted
much of his speech to Daviif B. Hill.
Among othed things Mr. Forrest Said:
“It is time for real Democrats to
raise their voices when we can read in
all the newspapers from one end of
the state to the other that the reor
ganization of the Democratic forces in
the state has been placed in the hands
of the men who in 1896 had not a word
to say for the greatest banner bearer
the Democratic party has had for forty
years. Democracy never needed reor
ganization until David B. Hill came in
to It.”
The platform reaffirms the Kansas
City platform and condemns David B.
Hill as a traitor.
Edgar I. Ryder, a West Chester
county attorney, was nominated for
Governor.
MINERS REVEL AT KEYSTONE.
Mine Bob* Killed at Head of Party
of Italian Laborer*.
Keystone, W. Va., June 7.—Thou
sands of striking miners are in Key
stone to-night, and there is much rev
elry. A mass meeting was held, a !
number of officials of the United Mine j
Workers being present. It was de- I
elded to again invite the operators to j
meet with them at Bramwell June 11.
It is doubtful if the operators will heed
the Invitation. At the Crane Creek
mines to-day James Dewees, a bank
boss, was shot and killed while walk
ing up the mountain toward the pit
mouth with twenty or more non-union
Italian miners. More trouble'is ex
pected.
PLAT TOP MINERS STRIKE.
To* River District Went Out to a
Man.
Bluefield, W. Va.. June 7.—Seventy
five per cent, of the Flat Top coal min
ers are on strike. The strike leaders
insist that by Tuesday next they will
have accomplished a complete tie-up.
Contrary to expectations the Tug Riv
er district went out to a man and not
a ton of coal is reported as having
been loaded there to-day.
So far no lawlessness has been re
ported, but the railroad company, as
well as the operators, is taking e>'ery
precaution to protect their property
and to-day sent into the field a num
ber of men to guard bridges and tun
nels.
REPUBLICANS C ANNOT AGREE.

to-day.
The positive announcement was made
after the conference, by senators rep
resenting each side of the controversy,
that the differences are now no nearer
adjustment than before the first con
ference was held, and that each side
occupies practically the same position
that it occupied in the beginning.

Ballots Counted In Secret When Lair
Requires Publicity.
Macon, June 7.—The Telegraph
prints to-morrow a section of the code,
calling attention to the fact that Bibb's
Executive Committee violated the law
in the manner in which the primary
was held. It quotes section 114, w-hich
says that ballots shall be counted pub
licly, whereas the managers here fcount
ed the ballots in rooms where nobody
else was allowed. No hint is made that
anybody will try to take advantage of
the point, how-ever.

Following the Flowers
Is a title always associated with the name of the author of that column in the Ladies' Home Journal, Eben B.
Rexford, the Shiocton, Wis., poet and story writer. One always thinks of a nature lover like Mr. Rexford as the
possessor of bounding health and superabundant vitality, so it sounds odd to hear that he was a confirmed
dyspeptic not so very long ago. The stopv of his trouble and its cure is best told in Mr. Rexford's own words.
“ Having need of a remedy for indigestion " writes the floricultural editor of
THE LADIES’ HOME JOURNAL
“I decided giving Kodol Dyspepsia Cure a trial, expecting onlv temporary relief, but am glad to say that a few
bottles afforded permanent relief aud restored the tone of the digestive organs to its natural condition. I can
heartily recommend it.”
NORMAL CONDITIONS
are referred to by Mr. Rexford as natural conditions. This is undoubtedly the correct view The normal man is a
healthy man. Health depends on the digestion. If the digestion is good the health is good. If the digestion ia
poor the general health always suffers.
DIGESTION IS NATURAL; INDIGESTION UNNATURAL
But so many of us have strayed away from natural conditions that few people are really healthy. Hasty eating,
irregular hours, mild dissipation, a dozen other stomach destroying customs of the day have made dyspepsia and
indigestion the characteristic complaints of the generation. If the sufferers knew how easily such troubles
be cured there probably wouldn't be so many of them.
--ICTHn_. 1 KODOL dyspepsia cure .
will do just as much for others as it did for Mr. Rexford. It is not so
. '£*" ~ u - much a medicine as a digestant. There have been and are other dys
pepsia remedies which afford temporary relief by digesting certain
JUm ’-V 'wS.-lt*' classes of food. What is really wanted, however, is a preparation
SflHf which will digest all classes without the stomach's aid. This is the
' SRjp result accomplished by Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It is the only prepara
j]r tion which digests auy and every kind of food. You need variety. A
M flgtj., g/ diet is often injurious. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure renders a diet entirely
’ OWiMk i unnecessary. It rests the stomach by digesting what you eat. This
1 Sif't ■> n rest and the wholesome touics contained in Kodol Dyspepsia Cure

! FRIARS’ LAND QUESTION.
COMMISSION OF CARDINALS TO BE
NAMED.
; Cardinal Martinelll, Being an An
gastinian, Will Not Be Allowed to
Serve—Cardinal Rnnipolla and the
Pope Discus* the Matter Privately.
Italian Paper* Publish Wild Can
ards About Gov. Taft'* Viait to
Rome.
Rome, June 7.—The papal secretary
of state, Cardinal Rampolla, had his
(Usual private audience with the Pope
this morning. Naturally the question
of the acquisition by the United States
of the friar lands in the Philippines
will be a subject for discussion at
the daily conferences, but the alleged
Information on the subject Is purely
surmise, as absolute secrecy Is main
tained as to what transpires at these
official visits. Cardinal Rampolla was
agreeably impressed by the fr.Jf.k
ness shown by Gov. Taft in sending
him a copy of Secretary Root's In
structions for examination.
The Pope has not yet appointed the
commission of cardinals to which the
matter Is to be referred. This com
mission will consist of five instead of
three members, as previously supposed,
and probably Cardinals Van Nutelli,
Satolli and Vives y Tuto will be in
cluded. Cardinal Martinelli will be ex
cluded because he is an Augustinian.
Cardinal Martinelll will be present at
the customary official reception of the
cardinals prior to the consistory at the
Palazzo Borghese to-day. The Ameri
can officials will also be present.
Cardinal Rampolla to-day returned
the visit of Gov. Taft at the Hotel
Quiftnal.
Gov. Taft Is greatly annoyed by the
inventiohs of the Italian newspapers
regarding his visit to Rome. The
Italia, one of the chief offenders, pub
lished an alleged interview with the
Governor, which was entirely ‘‘faked.’’

j WILD WORK OF ANIMALS.
Shun People Have Terrible Experi

Cleveland, O.
Cleveland. 0., June 7.—Three trainers
attached to an animal show had a
thrilling experiences here to-day with
their savage pets, and as a result one
| man, the lion tamer, Joseph McPhee,
is fatally Injured, with great holes in
his abdomen, made by the teeth of a
! Hon. The others injured are Herman
Wedder, whose right leg was badly
; crushed by a bear, and Mme. Morelii,
whose right arm and side were lacer
! ated by a leopard.
j The animals had traveled from Bos
ton to this city and were surly and
i ugly.
Wedder entered the cage of a big
bear, which received him with a swipe
I of his immense paw, knocking him to
j the floor' where the bear pounced upon
him and fastened his teeth into his
) right leg. tearing off so large a chunck
as to make necessary, surgeons say,
! the amputation of the injured limb.
A leopard leaped upon Mme. Morelll’s
I shoulder and lacerated her right arm
| severely. Mme. Morelii was lying
j on the floor when the attendants came
to her assistance and with pikes drove
the animal off.
Tbe Lion Tamer’s Fate.
The lion tamer, McPhee, was watch
ing the transfer of the lions from the
car to their cage, and because they
i refused to move promptly he entered
j the cage. He had hardly entered be
fore a great beast leaped upon him,
| pinning him to the floor. The lion
placed his great paws upon the fallen
I man's breast and tore his right leg in
a fearful manner, the tendons being
pulled from the bone.
The efforts of the attendants to drive
the lion off with pikes had no effect,
and seemed only to infuriate him the
| more, for he quickly pushed his big
i jaws and sharp teeth into McPhee's
j abdomen, and when he released his hold
j the trainer's abdomen was torn so bad
ly that his entrails were In sight. The
lion was finally driven off, and McPhee
was removed from the cage.

At first the alliance was supposed to
be only a working agreement, but this

two corporations is the plan which has
taken hold with much energy on the
minds of the leaders of the two great

HOW TO SMOKE YOIR CIGAR. *
Your Manner of Doing It Said to In
• dicate Yonr Character.
From an Exchange.
"Cigarology" is the title of anew art,
the rules of which have been formu
lated after years of study by a Euro
pean phychologist. Its object is to re
veal character, and the claim is made
that in no other way can the character
of a stranger be more readily discov
ered than by observing the manner in
which he smokes. The reason is be
cause in society all persons conform
more or less to long-established rules
and thus there is very little difference
between one person and another.
No rules, however, have been laid
down as to the manner in which a
mail shall smoke, and, as no two men
smoke in exactly the same manner, it
is possible, says the inventor of this
new art, tc learn the character of every
smoker whom one may meet
Hero are the rules to be observed,
and tney apply to all persons, whether
tljey smoke pipes, cigars or cigarettes.
Tno man who holds the pipe care
lessly in the corner of his moitl: l?t
--ing it hang down, is a nonchalant, in
dolent person, and on the other hand,
the man who grasps it so firmly be
tween his teeth that marks are left on
the amber mouthpiece is nervous and
highstrung.
Generosity, courtesy and loyalty are
the characteristics of a man who fills
his pipe recklessly and rapidly and
who sends forth Irregular puffs of
smoke, but, admirable though his char
acter is in these respects, his friend
ship is not likely to last .very long and
implicit confidence should at no time
be placed in him. Coldness, reserve
and caution are, on the contrary, the
salient characteristics of a man who
tills his pipe slowly and methodically,
and who smokes with the regularity of
an automaton.
The results, however,'obtained from
a pipe are not by an means equal in
value to those which are furnished by
a cigar.
Many smokers carry their cigars in
the upper left-hand pocket of their
vests, and the sole reason why they
do so is because they want to have
them at hand whenever they feel a
desire to smoke. They must have a
dozen cigar casl*s. yet they will not
use them simply because it takes a
little longer to open a case and take
a cigar out of It than It does to tak> j
a cigar from the vest Joeket. Jn other
words, these men are disinclined at
any time to make any gesture which
I* not absolutely ne.essa.-y.
Of a qulie different type are those
who bite off lb# end of Ilia cigar with
their teeth Prodigals and devil-may
cure fellows they are. and wo# to him

America is the land of nervous wo
men. The great majority of nervous
women are so because they are suffer
ing from some form of female disease.
By far the greatest number of female
troubles are caused by catarrh.
Women afflicted with pelvic catarrh
despair of recovery. Female trouble is
so common, so prevalent, 'that they ac
cept it as almost inevitable. The great
est obstacle in the way of recovery is
that they do not understand that it is
catarrh which is the source of their
illness. In female complaint, ninety
nine cases out of one hundred are
nothing but catarrh. Peruna cures ca
tarrh wherever located.

The Peruna Medicine Cos., Columbus, O.
Gentlemen —“What bread and meat
means to the hungry Peruna means to
the sick. It is an especially valuable
medicine for sick women. I have found
that no medicine so quickly restores
•health and places the body in a normal
condition.- I but voice the sentiments
of women who were once sick, but are
now in perfect health.”
MISS LIZZIE SNEATHING.
All women who are in doubt as to
what their trouble is should write Dr.
Hartman, Columbus, O. Give him a
full desqription of your trouble, prev
ious treatment, symptoms and age. He
will promptly reply with full directions
for treatment free of charge. This is an
opportunity which no ailing woman
should miss. Dr. Hartman has become
renowned through his success in treat
ing women’s diseases. His experience
in these matters is vast. Correspondence
is strictly confidential. No testimon
ials published without written consent.
Dr. Hartman relies principally upon
Peruna in these cases. Peruna cures
catarrh wherever located.
on the best security. Cigars, the ends
of which are bitten off in this man
ner, are very likely to unroll and the
time must be spent in arranging them;
moreover, very often they cannot be
arranged and must be thrown away—
all-of which, it is claimed, is convinc
ing proof that men who act thus set
no value on time or money.
Fastidious men, after lighting their
cigars, hold them not only between
their teeth and their lips, but also
with two, three, four or even with
all the fingers of the left hand, and,
after smoking for a while, they re
move them from their mouths and ex
amine the lighted ends carefully to see
if everything is in order, and espec
ially if the fire ?s burning steadily and
evenly. Men who act thus never waste
any words and are generally shrewd
and prudent. Asa rule they are
worthy of confidence, which cannot be
said of those who send forth the smoke
from the two corners of their mouths
in two divergent jets, since they are
eccentric and unreliable.
Men w'ho are quick-tempered or of a
lively temperament hardly touch the
tip of the cigar with their teeth and
after two or three puffs they take it
from the mouth and hold it in the hand.
In other matters they act similarly;
that is, they do everything by fits and
starts and find it impossible to adhere
very long to any fixed course of ac
tion.
Absent-minded men, on the other
hand, frequently let the cigar go out,
and, if they are not very choice in
their taste, try to light it again. Akin
to them are the men who, after smok
ing for a while, let the cigar go out
and then throw it away—an infallible
sign, according to the inventor of “cig
arology” of a mind which may be very
intuitive, but which is certainly not
able to reason well or logically. They,
however, are admirable persons, when
compared with those who at any time
have the misfortune to place the light
ed end of the cigar in their mouth. The
mere fact that they commit such a
blunder is said to be evidence of ex
treme thoughtlessness, and for this rea
son sensible persons are cautioned not j
to have anything to do with them.
A cigar titled upward in the direction !
of the nose is said to be an unerring I
token of an energetic and impatient j
character, and. on the contrary, a |
cigar which is held in the opposite 1
direction—namely, inclined toward the !
chin—is said to betoken melancholy and
the habit of Indulging in day dreams
Finally, a cigar which is held steadily
in a horizontal direction is an index I
of sang froid, indifference and very i
often of unscrupulousness and want of
character. I

Miss Mabel Meyers. Argentine, Ken
sas collector for the Kansas Temper
ance Union, writes: “Peruna has prov
ed a friend to me, for it cured me when
I was sick and the least I can do in re
turn is to acknowledge its value to the
public. Since I was 17 years old I have
suffered with headache, backache and
pains in the shoulder blades. I caught
cold easily and my lungs were weak.
Catarrh of the lungs was what the doc
tors called my trouble. I took their
medicine for eighteen months without
any benefit and hearing about Peruna
I decided to try it. I used nine bottles
and was restored to health. This was
two years ago, and I am now in perfect
health.”

he will be glad to give you his valua

MAGNETITE IN LAVA DIIST.
Why a Ship's Compass Should ‘•nance
a Jig”—Composition of the Dust.
From the New York Evening Post.
John N. Judson, in a letter to the
Evening Post, on the subject of the
composition of the lava dust now being
thrown out by the West Indian vol
canoes, writes:
Having received from Mr. Edward
Balbach of the Balbach Smelting and
Refining Company a small amount of
the lava dust which fell on a vessel
recently arrived. I had it passed
through a magnetic separator of the
Wetherill Separating Company, and di
vided as follows:
First. Most magnetic product—mag
netite, 5.3 per cent.; second, slightly
magnetic product, 70.8 per cent.; third,
non-magnetic product. 23.9 per cent.
The mineralogical characters of the
slightly magnetic and non-magnetic
products have not been determined.
If the handful experimented with be
taken as an average of the dust which
fell over so extended an area, it is not
to be wondered at that Capt. H*uisen
of the steamer Talisman was reported
in your issue of yesterday as saying
"the needle of the compass was danc
ing a jig, and I am confident it boxed
the entire card twice without coming
to a stop," for he was steaming
through a shower containing 5.3 per
cent, of magnetite, the most magnetic
of all minerals.
A DANGEROUS ADVERTISEMENT.'
Part* Police Keep Tab on Requests
for Wive*.
From t/he Hendon Telegraph.
Never advertise for a wife. Such Is
the wise advice given to-day bv a
Parisian paper to its readers. But no
body would ever guess the reason why
Parisians are to beware of the off o'-
of-marriage column which regularly
appears in some journals here. It is
not because young men in search of
good wives will not by this means dis
cover what they want. The reason is
that the French police use the said col
umns as a cheap and efficient method
of obtaining private information abiut
people. The story goes that when any
promising advertisement of the kind
appears the police prefect's clerks an
swer it on behalf of an Imaginary
lady, asking in return for accurate and
confidential Information about the
young man's life, habits, occupation
and so on. When the correspondence
has continued for some time the de
tective service i* in possession of a
complete ''dossier" about the unsus
pecting individual. The principle of the
French police, according to the story
in question, which I repeat as related
by a French newspaper, appears to be
that "dossiers about anybody ate * *
ways useful." The person may
happen to be "wanted" just now. b' Jt
one never can tell.
