The CHANGE CAUSED BY THE GRIP.
The Procession Through London Given
Cp Because Of the Exposure to
Aged Courtiers and the
Troops-Prince George
Will Not Attend.

LONDON, Jan. The arrangements
that were made for public and scmi-mili-
tary procession through London to escort
the remains Of the Duke Of Clarence and
Avondale from the Great Eastern to the
Southwestern railway station have
been changed in consequence OF
the general epidemic of influenza
prevailing here. When the order was is
sued by the high military authorities
preparations were Immediately made TO
carry it into effect, but representations
were made to the prince Of
Wales tina. the guards who were
occurred to line the route from the Liver
pool street station Of the Great Eastern
railway to the station OF the Southwestern
railway would have to stand immovab-e
for long time and that they wonld thus
be peculiarly liable TO become chilled
through and otherwise endanger their
health.
The prince Of Wales is showing the
greatest solicitude that the members Of
the court should not be exposed TO un-
necessary risk, which procession through
London would entail and which would be
certain to seriously affect the health OF
many Of the aged courtiers.
The duke Of Cambridge was upon the
point Of leaving Cannes to return to Lon
don to attend the funeral Of the duke Of
Clarence and Avondale, when he received
q telegram from the prince OF Wales re-
Questing him not to leave, as the prince
did not wish him to run the n sk that would
be entsiled by the change of climate.
II is deemed that the health Of Prince
George of Wales is not sufficiently robust
to allow Of his exposing himself in any
way and the prince Of Wales has decided
that he will not be allowed to attend his
brothers funeral

Death Came In q Horrible Form.
ST. Louis, Jan l A human body
formed part of the ice gorge in the river
yesterday. II was identified as that OF w.
c. Sproule, a salesman in the en-
ploy of Samuel c. Davis & Co.
He had evidently intended to cross
the river on the ice before il became
heavy, broke through, and being unable to
regain the surface by reason Of the swift
current, braced himself in the hole he had
made and thus met death from exposure.
Axes had to be used for some time before

task, he persuaded her by promising to
aid her constantly in the work. She
finally consented, and Mr.. Durant kept
his word, sustaining her in everything
as long as he lived. When his death oc-
Cured, in 1882, she broke down com
pletely and was soon obliged to resign
because Of i'll health.
Miss Howard is striking looking wo-
man now past middle age. She is not
tall, but dignited in bearing, with a
strong fine face and snowy hair arranged
in puffs on either side of her head. Her
eyes are blue and full of expression,
while her voice is peculiarly sweet. A
native of New Hampshire, she was first
educated in the library of her father,
William Hawkins Howard, afterward at
New Ipswich academy, and the Lowell
high school. She was graduated from
Mount Holyoke in 1853. Beside this she
had had private instructors in various
branches.
For several years Miss Howard taught
at Mount Holyoke, then at the Western
Female seminary, at Oxford, o., finally
becoming principal of the ladies depart
ment of Knox college, situated at Gales
burg, Ills. Then she had boarding
and day school of her own at Bridgetou.
