Sudden Death Of Prince Leopold
Duke Of Albany, at
Cannes.
The Good Queens Youngest Son the First

the Other Shore.
The Sad Event Brought on by Physica,

bany died at Carnes instead Of Nice. He
was seized with 1T, and despite the best
medical attendance, died without being
restored to consciousness. His physician
attributes his death to over-exertion and
fatigue, brought on by indulging too
freely in gaieties. Last Tuesday night,
in spite OF the orders of his physicians,
he danced several hours and returned
home Frustrated.
PRINCE LEOPOLD
was the youngest son Of Queen Victoria
and, next to the Princess Beatrice, the
youngest child. He was little more
than an infant when his father, Prince
Albert, died. From his infancy he had
been delicate and was subject to fits,
an infection which he inherited from
his mothers family. For years he was
confined to Windsor and Osborne, unable
to take part in the great public ceremo-
MES in which his brothers and sisters
assisted, nor to mingle in the festivities
OF the court He was OF very re-
served aud almost sullen disposition up
to early manhood, and his disinclina-
ton to mingle with the world, to-
gether with his fondness of books of a
sombre character gave rise to the rumor
that he was preparing to become minis.
of the Church of England. H. r. H. Leo
pold George Duncan Albert, Duke Of
Albany, was born April 7, 1853, and was
therefore thirty-one years of age. On
April q, 1852, he married the Princess
Helen, daughter of the Prince
OF Waldeck, who was then twenty three
years OF age. A daughter, Alice Mary
Victoria Augusta Pauline, was born TO
them on February %, 1883. While on
his wedding tour through England he
was stricken with epilepsy, and shortly
afterward was compelled to leave the
country for Nice, where he ar
rived shortly before Mr.. Gladstone, who
was suffering from overwork at the same
time.
At the time of his marriage there was
considerable discussion in Parliament
over the Governments bill making hin
the usual allowance. The discussion ere
ated such q scandal that it is said The
Prince came very near calling upon Mr
Gladstone to withdraw his motion.
Prince Leopold visited the United States
a short time ago. and in company with his
sister, the Princess Louise, and the Mar
quis OF Lorne, made a tour through the
country, visiting Chicago, San Francisco,
British Columbia, and returning by way
of Charleston, S. c.

She called her boys in this morning and
talked to them little while, but said
nothing about their father. Stewart, the

you as he did. And you thought he did

of memory on the part of a popular
clergyman on an %eventful occasion.
Rev. Mr.. Chandler and Miss Lizzie
Farrer, Of this city, were engaged to be
welded on Monday evening. Due pre-
parations had been made, the bell had
sounded at the church, the guests assem-
bled, the bride and attendants were
there, but the bridegroom "came not.'
A fever of anxiety was consuming the
company when the bridegroom entered
with some Chicago friends with whom
he had been talking over old times and
INDUCING in bright anticipations forthe
future. When the officiating clergyman
nervously called for the papers, the
bridegroom was struck dumb with dis
may to discover that he had forgotten to
procure the necessary licence. His di-
| plomatic Chicago friends besought the
officiating minister to perform the cere-
mony, pledging themselves to secure
the papers in the morning, but the
| clergyman would not consent. Then
the county clerk was hunted up, hurried
to his office, the papers procured and
the party repaired to the church to re-
lieve the anxiety of the guests. The
ceremony was duly performed according
to the .%sstatootsu and the happy pair re-
ceived the congratulations of their
friends.
The bridegroom had himself married
many couples, and the fact that be had
forgotten the formality Of the license
was regarded as a royal joke.

Road Supervisor Brinkman, with a
gang of men, is busily employed in
making the new grade over the Cracon-
du-nez, the temporary road which was
made after the land slide being found
too steep for practical use. The new
road will commence at the foot of the
hill. near the river, and be cut out of the
side Of the hill on an easy grade until
it reaches the top. This will be about
100 yards to the left of the present road.
A good thoroughfare is needed in that

warrant the construction Of another, by

Coal Lands OF the Northwest.

At the meeting of the national acade-
my of sciences at Newport, r. l., Prof.
r. Pumpelly. who had charge OF the
survey Of the country along the North
ern Pacific in 1881, read a paper on the
Mesozoic Goals of the northwest. The
Goals in Washington territory, northern
Montana, Idaho. Oregon and Dakota
are all cretaceous, from the top Of the
Laramie formation down. From the
Missouri river west to the Rocky noun
tains, the coal layers are thirteen to six
teen feet thick, but are Ignite and
crumble on exposure. West OF that the
LAYERS are two to six feet thick, but are
bituminous coking Goals. In judith
basin, up to or past the British line, arc
coking Goals from eighteen inches to
five or six feet thick. The next great
coal fields are west of the Cascade range.
Here the thickness Of carboniferous for
nation is at least 1900 feet. All the
bituminous coal has been studied, but
not set the Ignite, which IS less valu-
able. Some OF these Goals have been
converted into natural coke, having the
same chemical composition as anthra-
