hardly say thar obtained any such
impression of her. / think she was
pretty. Yes, I know she was. But it
was her youth and her freshness
that impressed me most. She had
clear cut features, and her portraits
of this date show nothing of the
slender young girl with the grace
full carriage I remember seeing that
summer day so long ago."
Mr.. Carpenter has in his possess
sion a copy of The Sun, paper pub
lished in London and probably the
only one to be found in this city, of
the date of the coronation. It was
printed at the time in gilt, all of
which has nearly worn away, but
the paper is in an excellent state of
preservation. On the front page is
a vignette profile of the young
queen, which Mr.. Carpenter says
was an excellent likeness at the
time, and an editorial note pro-
nounces it a triumph of art.
! The paper was printed on June
90, 1888, and the number in the
possession of Mr.. Carpenter is the
twentieth edition. 1t contains a his
tory of former coronations, the
make up of the pageant and the po-
sitions of the various troops, ETC.,
in the coronation parade, a sketch
of the young queen and every mat
ter pertaining to the event. There
is also description of the crown
which was placed on the head of the
youthful daughter of the Duke of
Kent. This crown was estimated to
be worth 9111,000. = Baltimore

LIQUID Air.

Many scientists are deyoting theil
attention to the difficult task OF
rapidly and cheaply liquefying air
This, when accomplished, will be OF
great valueFfor many purposes, OF
which refrigeration and the moving
of engines, stationary and locomo-
tive, are the most important. By the
most successful method hitherto
used German experimenter was
able, with copper tube apparatus
weighing 1872 pounds and pressure
averaging more, than 100 atmos-
pheres, to liquefy air in two hours
without resorting to auxiliary cool
ing expedients. By means, however,
of a machine exhibited last month
before the Dublin Royal society,
liquid air was produced In % min
utes. The air pressure in this case
was less than 81 atmospheres and
the apparatus weighed only 20
pounds. The liquid air was not in
quantity large enough to be of COM
mercial importance, but the system
was marked improvement over all
its predecessors. Exchange

mountains. Down on one side was
boiler, and up on t'other side was
hill that couldn't see to the top
of, and on all sides was mountains,
and couldn't see how the train was
ever going to dodge them all.
1.-The little shelf the train was
running. on kept wiggling through
them hills like snake in a pillow
field, and then I looked ahead and
saw where hill had been split
plumb down to the ground to let the
railroad through, and that was all
right, because / could see daylight
on the other side.- And then when
the train went through that split
in the hill it switched around kinder
to one side, and then I could see the
tracks ahead of the engine, and saw a
big white mountain all covered with
snow, sticking clear up into the
clouds, and nobody knows how
much farther, and the next thing
knowed the engine give a screech
like she was most scared to death,
and I looked quick and the whole
business was going PUNK into hole
in the ground. And then I jumped.
Came near getting killed, but I
fooled them that trip. You don't
catch me running up against any
game that I don't know nothing
about, and I amt going into any
thing that I don't know the way
out of. Then l came down to town

"Stop nothing. The last l saw
of the darned thing it was still

I wasn't on it. Say, do you reckon
I could get my bucket back if they
get them out?"
It took considerable time and the
testimony of several witnesses to
convince Mr.. Duffer that the entire
train and its contents were not hope
lessly buried in the interior of Pixies
peak, and quite "a little crowd ac-
companied him to the station,
where Agent Dunaway telegraphed
to Cascade to return one lunch pail

And as he left the station to fill
up on free soda billing right out of

VICTORIA CROWNED
A R;&1timorean's Recollections of the

cession of England's Queen.
Mr. John Carpenter. who has Iive
here since 1916, was present at the
browning of Victoria at Westmin-
ster. He talked about the event
without hesitating:
Victoria, The said, twas declared
the lawful heir on June 20, 1887,
but on account of her age-she was
not yet 18-the public coronation
did not take place until June %,
1888. It is a long while ago. The
pageant was a magnificent one, how
long my memory does not serve
me, but it was gorgeous. / saw the
queen. She was fresh looking
young thing with a happy, smiling
face. as innocent looking as she was.
There was not a care upon her
brow. It seemed as if no thought
of the stupendous responsibilities
which she was assuming had come
to her. She appeared utterly uncon-
gcious of self or the part she was
playing in that notable event.
"She did not appear frightened,
but to the plaudits of the multitude
she turned to the left and right,
bowling and smiling most gracious
ly. had a good position on one of
the thoroughfares through which
the pageant passed and got a good
look at her. Of course the trappings
of her horses and the chariot and
what not were most gorgeous.
And such cheering! Such crowds
People? There we're people every
where Strange as it may seem,
though the queen should have been
the central figure, I think what i'm
pressed me most on that occasion
was the superb appearance of Mar
shall Soult, the French ambassador,
and his staff.
Everything was gorgeous in the
pageant, but Soult was more than
gorgeous. l can see his trappings in
my minds eye at this minute To
attempt to describe them would be
beyond my powers. Gorgeous is all
I can say for them, and he knew
they were gorgeous. While there
was no self consciousness about the
queen, there was plenty of it about
the French ambassador, and the peo-
pie fed his vanity, for cheer after
cheer rent the air as he passed by.
There were long lines of resplen-
dent soldiery. The brilliant uni
forms, the glittering gold lace, the
flashing of the arms in the sunlight,
the blare of the trumpets, the caval-
cades of horsemen, carriages of state
everything went to make up such
a pageant as is seldom seen and can
hardly be eclipsed by anything at
the present time
