FESTIVITIES OF REX. Notwithstanding
the ravages of the yellow fever in some
parts OF the South, they still find time for
festivities in the city of Atlanta, Ga. They
have recently had there a procession of
great splendor, representing the royal entry
of Rex The Constitution SAYS:
"Ihere have been many crowds in At
lanta, but there was never such a jam as
our streets presented Friday night. The
procession was first seen comingln brilliant
dash down Mitchell street. Long lines OF
bright lights, borne by masked attendants,
lit the scene like day, and every few MN
utes the blaze of the colored lights would
throw glare of weird beauty on the mov-
ing pageant, ..,.a.o.
of the procession us the Triumph OF ferdi-
nand and Isabella and told the tale OF the
siege of Grenada. The subject is suggestive
of galantry and noble deeds. Preceded by
knights Oh prancing steeds came the royal
tent Upon magnificent throne was seated
| Isabella, the Queen of Spain, attended on
one side by her son Juan, and upon the
other by Thomas de Torquemada, the first
Grand Inquisitor of Spain. Immediately in
front of the tent, upon the greensWard, were
stacks of arms, and on each side sentinel.
This car was beautiful. The drapery of the
throne and all the investments of royalty
were superb. ,........
Next rode on a splendid steed Ferdi
nand King of Spain, surrounded by the
gallant knights, who counted it their highest
honor to fight for their king and theil
sweetest destiny to die for the crosses thai
blazed on their dauntless breasts.
after the procession ceased the charac
ters presented at the Opera-house a series o.
beautiful tableaux. The management O.
the whole affair was perfect. Each tablear
was heartily applauded by the elegan
audience. After the tableaux the Mystic
in mask danced couple of sets with ladie
chosen from the audience. Then th
festivities of the evening began and con
tinued until o'clock"

A REMARKABLE PINE FOREST.

The tour up the Black Canon should not
be confined to less than two days, for it is
one of the most varied and remarkable
open to the tourist within Colorado's con-
fines. The first two miles cen be made in
q carriage, but the best plan is to take a
saddle horse at the start. . From the en-
trance proper the way is by trail made
wears ago, when Indians packed their traps
over it to North Park. mile or two
through the blackened and charred trunks
of a re-destroyed forest, and then we
work upward into dense growth of yellow
pine, the like of which we have not seen
IN all our travels. The trees are evidently
of uniform age, for each trunk is almost of
exact size. Each tree rises clean cut and
wonderfully symmetrical to height of
fully seventy feet before it puts forth
barest vestige of leaf or branch, and then
the boughs spread out in bounteous pro-
fusion of foliage, iuterlaced and entwlned
until the canopy is SO dense that the rays
of the SUI rarely penetrate; hence the
name Black Canon. There is no pitch
trickling down the beautifully rounded
trunks, no rugged scanning of bark or i'll
crustation of moss, nor is there underbrnsh
or scraggy outcroppings to mar the singu-
lar symmetry of the growth. The earth
below is padded thick with low running
vines, and the trees spring up Ill such
remarkable numbers that one could not
discharge rifle in horizontal direction
without hitting one within ten feet of
where he stood. On either side the 6 eat
walls of forest-covered rocks reached far
toward the sky, and to the left we hear the
gurgling of a stream, and occasionally we
catch glimpses of cascades of striking
beauty. Mile after mile we wind through
the narrow defle between the trees, and
as they grow smaller we know we are
, nearing timber line.

A LITTLE old woman in small Scot

Bank was located, had charge of the tele-
graph Office. When the dispatch was re-
ceived for the bank to close its doors, she
improved the golden moments employed
by her daughter in transcribing the mes

AMERICAS OPPORTUNITY.

The collapse of the Glasgow City Bank
proves to be but the beginning of a dis
astrous financial panic which is extend
ing rapidly over Great Britain, and even
to the remotest British Colonies. The
developments made in closing up the
affairs of this institution weaken the
public confidence in all others. Capital
lists have lost faith in either the wisdom
or honesty of the financial managers of
the nation. Even in absence of any
we'll grounded suspicion of fraud and
misappropriation of trust funds, it is
found that the capital and deposits have
been invested in speculative stocks and
commercial enterprises of doubtful char
acter at the best, and that the results, in
a crisis like the present. can not be other
wise than ruinous.
In many ways British disaster might
be Americas opportunity. 1t is said
that the immense commercial steam
marine of the former country owes its
existence to the liberality of the banks,
and is now largely owned and controlled
by them.
During the late civil war the United
States was deprived of its leading rank
upon the high seas as commercial ma
ton. A few Confederate cruisers, owing
their existence to British disregard of the
laws of nations, led to a transfer of al
most the entire mercantile marine of the
country to foreign capitalists. England
profted largely by this transfer, and has
continued to profit largely by the stupid
ity of American legislation in prohibit
ing the purchase of foreign tonnage. For
fifteen years almost our entire carrying
trade, exports and imports, is in foreign
ships, manned by foreign sailors, and
leaving all the profits of transportation
in the pockets of foreign capitalists. All
this ruinous policy is maintained under
the shallow pretext of protecting Ameri
can ship building. 1t may protect it.
but, unfortunately for our commerce, il
doesn't encourage it. The protection en-
ables one or two wealthy firms to monop
olize the ship building of the country Al
prices sixty per cent. above the cos
of the same class of vessel constructed
abroad. Some figures illustrating thi
fact were given in the STAR some week
since.
Now, it is quite probable, almost inev
table, that large number of the Eng
lish vessels of the first class, especial
those of the Clyde and Glasgow build
will be thrown in the market and sold a
a great sacrifice. But, as the absurd lay
of Congress now stands, no American ca
buy them if he could get them for one
tenth their value or at any price Coul
our people avail themselves of this oppo
tunity, America would at once assume
position to command the commerce {

The young prince or Servla is in a
very uncomfortable predicament. He
was married a few months ago, and
the magnificence Of the raiment pro-
vided for his bride was the talk of
Paris. He dare not venture outside
his palace doors for there is a pre-
tender to the throne who is only
too anxious to get shot at the
unfortunate young man whose father
was assassinated. He must regret that
his grandfather, who founded the
dynasty, ever turned his attention
from pigs to politics. He was dealer
in those useful animals when he made
revolution, assassinated the reigning
Prince and took possession of the
throne.

For some years the Russian army has
been experimenting with passenger
pigeons, and has met with much success.
Something like two thousand five hundred
trained birds are now at the disposal of the
military staff. The principal depot is at
Warsaw, and there are stations at all the
fortresses. Each station consists of several
dovecots fitted up separately, the number
of them corresponding to the directions
whence the pigeons will be flown. Each
station is in charge of an experienced
pigeon breeder, and some stations are i'm
posing buildings.
