Prince Svasti approached the crown
prince, and having presented the procla-

the rank of the prince compels him to

Then followed congratulatory adj
dresses in the Siamese language, the

The crown prince replied, and the
ceremony was at an end.
Among the insignia presented were
two magnifcently jeweled swords,
which have been in the possession of the

years. One is of the rarest workman

wise Pleasant Trip.
 Jay Dewey who returned yesterday morning from trip to the coast, had a misunderstanding with the S. F., sys- tenn at Colton which likely lead up to g damage suit against the company.
 He went to the coast nearly month ago on 8 round trip excursion ticket. Soon after the train pulled out of Los Angeles OF the return trip few days ago, the conductor on being shown the ticket said it was a scalper's ticket. He went on and was followed by the "train agent" or special conductor who runs out of Los Angeles as far as Colton on the same train. He too said it was 8 scalper's ticket and taking it went forward. MT. Dewey has never him since.
 After leaving Colton, the regular conductor interviewed his pas senger again and told him that the special conductor had gotten off at Col ton. Mir. Dewey could pay his fare or follow the special conductors example. He declined to do either and the upshot of the whole matter was that he was ejected from the train with more or less ostentation. He went back to Los An geles by the next train and took new start on a cash basis.

NELSON DIED. That Awful Downward Flight was Fatal. The Aeronaut Never Be- came Conscious.
The Fall in the Dark was From
 a Dizzy Height.
He Kept Murmuring in His UnCon- sciousness, "I Can't Hold On;
 Pm Too Tired.''

Rcd" Nelson, the aeronaut, is dead. The end came to him yesterday after noon. It was painless, for in the forty five hours after his awful fall he never recovered consciousness.
 It was not believed in the beginning that he would get well, though twenty four hours afterward there was hope and even 8 belief that the injuries were not fatal. That night he began vomit- ing blood and that was sign that he would die. He also betrayed restless ness but yesterday morning he was quiet.
 The remains were taken to Randall & Davis' undertaking rooms whence they will be given 8 decent burial at 2 o'clock today.
 The expenses will be paid by the proprietor of the merry-go-round, from whose place the ascent was made. All day tomorrow and tomorrow night, the merry go round will run to pay the eX- penses of the dead aeronaut and for the relief of his injured partner, Otto Burke.
 Just how Nelson was killed cannot be known. That night it was supposed that his injuries were received in falling from the building on which he dropped from the parachute. It was supposed too that they might have been sustained when he fell upon the the contact sounded like the explosion of cannon.
 Then also the parachute had fallen on another building half block away. If it could have been waited by the light breeze that far after Nelson let go the bar, he must have separated from it at dizzy height.
 It is believed from his unconscious meanings that he did not let go under a misapprehension in the darkness that he was near the ground. He kept say ing "Give me a,clear fall and I'll make it all right" Then he would murmur wearily, "No, I can't hold on Pm too tired"
 He must have been tired for he had worked hard all afternoon about the balloon and only undertook the peril ous ascent after, his partner was injured to prove to unreasonable and heartless persons in the crowd that the show was no fake. st
 Dreadful as the fall was not bone was broken, but the body was bruised over half it's surface. There was an ugly cut on the jaw and another near the left eye. But the tissues were so thoroughly crushed that the under, taker was hardly able to find a vein into which to inject the embalming fluid.
 Nelson was about 30 years old and was born in York, Pa. He went to California in 1886. So far as he knew he had no relatives living. He and Burke came to Arizona two months ago and to Phoenix nearly month since. Ever since they have been Tn the ter ritory they have been persistently pur- sued by bad luck, and it may interest expectations folks to learn that Nel- sons last and fatal ascent was his thirteenth.
 Burke IS not frightened by his part ner's fate. He said last night he would continue in the balloon business, but not in this locality. And he added /: q expect that the same thing that happened to Red will some time hap pen to me-"
