Journey of Queen Victoria from WindSor
Castle to London Is Marked by Popular
Ovations All Along the Route.
London, June 22.-Queen Victoria is
now in London. An immense crowd
~athered near Paddington station early
Monday morning and waited with
stolid patience. The early hours were
enlivened by the pealing of bells and
everywhere foated the royal standard.
The first point of interest in the days
proceedings was Windsor, where by q
o'clock the route leading from the cas-
tie to the Great Western railway sta
tion was lined by a mass OF people
gathered to see the queen start Flags
and flowers were everywhere, and the
order of the day; "God Save the Queen"
appeared on houses and banners with
out end.
At noon the qneen left the castle.
The railway station was decorated IN
scarlet and gold, flowers in bloom and
tall palms. The queen was received
by the directors of the railway. 1.-The
queens train"-used for the first time
was drawn up close to the entrance
door. The magnificent engine, queen
Empress" carried the royal arms en-
blazoned in gold and colors in front
and royal heraldic devices over the
driving wheels. The train was com
posed of six carriages built on the
American corridor system. The queen
carriage occupied the center OF the
train.
The start for London was made at
1915 and for almost the entire dis
tance the train passed between groups
of loyal people. Every station between
Windsor and Paddington had been
decorated. The railway employees
everywhere stood at salute, while
the platforms were crowded with
cheering people.
At Paddinyton the immense terminus
had been transformed into a hall OF
crimson, garlanded with fringe gold;
fragrant with the odors of countless
blossoms, walled on either side by par
terres of people. The state carriages
from Buckingham palace were at the
end of the covered way. AS soon a'
the queen had taken her seat the Life
Guards drew up in front as roar O
cheers proclaimed to waiting thousands
beyond that she had arrived.
Along the route to Buckingham pal

1t was sun-up and swapping cold when
the brakeman shouted "rugaloo," and
gratefully Lambert stepped from the
train and felt free air. Mr.. Potts was
sleeping soundly. doubled up in one OF
the seats The only wakeful bipeds in
sight were the conductor and his train
man. Unseen hands forward had
showed the TRUNK out upon the frosty
boards. The sun was just pceping over
q low wooded ridge before them. The
track wound away among some dcsolate
fields where tiny fakes OF cotton still
clung to the brown and withered sta''s'
Ina cloud Of steam the train pulled away,
leaving Lambert and his trunk TO iook
otter each other as best they might. ana
as the cloud lifted the young officer
looked curiously around him.
He was standing IN rude wooden
platform whose shrunken planks left

tt is Thought by Many

when the Creator said to woman
"in sorrow shalt thou bring forth
children" that a curse was pro-
nounced, but the Joy felt by every
Mother when she first presses to
her heart her babe, proves. the
contrary.
Danger and suffering lurk in
the pathway Of the Bxpectant
Mother, and should be avoided,
that she may reach the hour
when the hope of her heart is to
be realized, in full Vigor and
strength.

Manv n,dders for Torpedo Boats.

Washington, June 22.-The opening
at the navy department yesterday of
proposals for building three torpedo
boats called together many bidders. 1t
was noticeable that the largest ship
building concerns in the United States
appeared as competitors for the little
boats, while heretofore they have
often disregarded such work. The
boats are to be of the highest speed.
The contracts will demand not less
than 80 knots per hour. 1t is scarcely
possible, until the bids have bee-- are
fully examined by experts, to say
which are the lowest bids.

were black with humanity. Tne queen
drove slowly to crafty her people
Her face everywhere loosened the voice
of the multitude. In unrestrained
strength the tumultuous expression OF
Loyalty broke forth.
Through Burton's gate the queen
passed on to the entrance OF Bucklng-
ham palace, always between living
lanes of her subjects, always the OBJ
iect of endless homage and salvos OF
cheers which continued until the gates
had shut the queen from view. In the
afternoon in the throne room OF Buck
ingham palace her majesty received
the imperial and royal ENJOYS.
The queen last night entertained at
dinner 90 of her most distinguished
guests The spacious supper room was
fairy sight; exquisite costumes, dia-
monds and countless gems, the most
brilliant of uniforms, Stars, orders and
crosses without end, the royal liveries,
the table and buffet loaded with the
famous gold plate the value of which
runs into millions, and Dresden china,
flowers and lights glittering up to the
ceiling with it's foliage and floral orna-
mentation.
After the dinner the queen pro-
ceeded to the grand saloon to receive
the diplomatic corps and some of the
more distinguished of the special
guests. Here again the scene was
brilliant in the extreme. To the royal
and princely guests of the banquet
were added ambassadors and minis
ters, ENJOYS and suites in the variegated
uniforms and dress of all the courts OF
Europe. dazzling scene of color.

Letters to Bradford People.
Mr.. f. II. NYE.

Mr.. f. II. NYE.
DEAR SIR:-NOu say some won't pay
Sc. pound for soap, no matter how
good it is.
You are wrong. They will when they
find out that Sc. soap is cheaper than
sc. or Sc.
Give 'em time; it took 25 years to CON
vince the people of this country that
granulated sugar at a cent more a pound
was cheaper than yellow; it took us two
wears to convince the house keepers of
New York state that Harmless soap was
cheaper than lower priced soap.
Keep the trial offer open. Sell 'em
the soap on positive guarantee that one
bar will outwash two &c. cakes. If they
say it doesn't, give 'em back &c. on each
bar and charge to us
Women are all alike i'm one respect
they'll buy what they like when they
find it out. And they like this Harm
less soap when they find out:
o. That it costs less than sc. soap be
cause they use less of it; (2) that low
priced soap rots clothes and ours does
nOt-for the average damage to clothes
by cheap soap is $50 to 500 a year
they'll find it out in time.
Soaps have been getting cheaper and
stronger for years; it is getting worse
and worse. The way to turn around is
to give mild soap a chance in families.
Do your part-they will thank YOU for
it. Yours truly,
G. IL. PosT * Co,
Newburg, Vt.
