AT the Jaffa Gate the emperor's entry
into Jerusalem will be signalized by
spectacle that will live long in the MEM
ory of those privileged to witness it, This
function will take place on October -.
The kaiser will consecrate the Church
of st. John at Jerusalem, and will prob
ably visit the Garden Tomb, which has
been declared by Gen Gordon and other
authorities to be the actual sepulchre in
which our Lord was laid.
On horseback the emperor will journey
to Jericho, passing on the way the Mount
of Olives, Bethany, and the Inn of the
Good Samaritan. He will see the Apos-
ties Spring, the great Jordan and the
Dead Sea, the Tomb of Lazarus and the
house of Mary and Martha.
The kaiser reaches Jerusalem again on
November 2, and Is expected to see the
Jews wailing place, where the unique
spectacle of Jews weeping over the ruins
of the ancient city will probably meet his
eye.
His majesty returns to Jaffa and sails
thence on November for Caifa- car
riage and four will be In waiting, and
thus he will visit Nazareth and Tiberias.

The irregularity OF Tobacco, with Its
hours Of weakness and moments of
strength, gives rise TO all kinds of ru-
mors and Surmises. some of which may
have foundation The chief fact in the
whole Tobacco situation, however, Is
that nobody on the Street knows what
will happen next There was talk this
morning that there is 10 be a great fight
against the Light & Myers Company

chief lever in this fight. the chief brand
Of Drummond cigarettes and the chief
Drummond plug being pitted against the
Light * Myers product in the same
town. Already a reduction of 10 cents
a pound has been made in plug tobacco.
II is easy TO see that such a fight would
cut profits and have a tendency at first
to send down the price OF the stock. Also
there is talk of a large increase in the
capital stock of the trust TO be made up
for the purchase of the Drummond plant.
Tobacco went down four or more points
this morning.

A MAJESTIC TOUR.
How the KAISER Will Go Through

No more picturesque event has occurred
within recent years than Emperor VIII

is going in all the pomp and splendor that
marked the royal crusaders of early Eng

it may be mentioned that Messrs. Cook,
in whose care the emperor has placed

The emperor's body guard will be COM

less than seven feet in height.
Fifty servants will wait upon the en-

of grooms will care for the horses and

ENGLAND SEEMS LENIENT
Am Evident Disposition to Allow

mand-PeopIe Hoping That Russia
May Take a Hand.

Paris, Oct. l2.-Less general excitement
over the pending issue with England on
account of the Fashoda question prevail 5
here today. How the matter exactly
stands is unknown out of the cabinet. In
deed many are of the opinion that the
secret of the situation is locked alone in
the breasts OF NJ. Delcasse. minister OF
foreign affairs and the British ambassa-
dor. Whatever may be the facts it is
evident that some reply has been made
to the English government that for the
time being has forestalled any such hos
tile demonstration as was expected two
days ago.
Many are inclined to the opinion that
the British government has consented to
withhold the ultimatum IN the hands OF
Sir Edmund Monson until NJ Delcasse
has received his expected report from
Major Marchand.
Ii is not to be inferred from this that
the relations between the two countries
have been relieved from the strain of sew
eral weeks past, but the people seem TO be
acting on the impression that no news is
good news, and consequently feel that
there will be no war.
II is not singular that in the midst Of the
trials and tribulations of the past ten
days the people and newspapers Of France
have brought their memories to bear upon
the friendship Of Russia and the ultra
demonstrations of affection between Rus
slams and Frenchmen at memorable oc-
currences Of not long ago periods.
a
government would be a most welcome
note at this moment While there is no
official reason to foster such an idea, it has
nevertheless gained a foothold among the
people and is warmly nursed.

Baby Brides.

IFfOm Inc AdVOcate OF India.0 ! f.Ft
We hear from a correspondent that two mem.
orable marriages are just going on at Tiruchanur
In one case the bride is only little child inst
year old and hardly able TO stand erect and
her would-be husband is a boy of ten or eleven,
and his eyesight is said to be detective but the
parents say that because Brahma wills that he
should be the husband of the little baby there
can really be no help for it. In the other case
the bride is four years old and the husband is
ten times older. Our correspondent adds: 'Such
marriages have not altogether ceased in this
country, and these clearly indicate the necessity
for effective legislation. Let those who object to
the introduction OF the two recent bills with
which the country is familiar and which follow
the lines of the law in force in the Mysore
territory pause and think calmly over this deplor-
able state Of things" More particulars regarding
the parties will be interesting 4e9 -
