Gypsy Queen Mary Abdicafes in Fa-

LANCASTER, Pa, Sept. 1.-Out in the
country, on Chiques Rock, near Marietta,
On a romantic height overlooking the Sus-
quehanna River, Queen abdicated yes
terday and a new Queen was crowned, un-
der circumstances most novel and inter-
esting. For the past six weeks there has
been encamped on Chiques Rock a band of
gypsies, and yesterday their aged Queen,
Mary Bucklin. known as Queen Mary, re-
signed, and was succeeded by her prepos-
sessing daughter, Devorra.
The tribe is composed of several scores
of families, scattered through Eastern
Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and many
of these were present yesterday. Queen
Mary has ruled the tribe twenty-five years.
1t is a tribes prerc9ative TO dethrone
a Queen at will, through incurring their
ill-favor, but Queen Mary's reign has been
a satisfactory cne, and she resigned yes
terday voluntarily on account of age, be-
ing sixty eight years old, and was sue
ceeded by her handsome daughter, De-
vorra Yesterday marked a double event
in the daughters life, for ii was her twen-
ty-ffth birthday anniversary as well as the
occasion of her coronation. In honor of
the occasion the band. augmented by many
visiting kin, appeared in gala attire, and

The members of the tribe grouped them

Devcrra had been duly elected by vote
Of the entire tribe.
Afterward. without further ceremony,
Mrs. Anne Smith placed upon the young
woman's head crown, made of black jet
ting and silk embroidered with an in
scription in the Romany language, and De-
vcrra was hailed Queen.
Each tribesman then stepped forward,
and with his hand in hers, pledged fealty
to the young Queen. The ceremony con-
cluded with a gypsy song to the accom-
paniment of musical instruments.

at Fort Hancock. Sandy Hook, yesterday,

by the Secretary of War and the Board Of

Major General Nelson A. Miles, president;
Col. Royal T. Frank, OF the artillery: Cap
tain Tulm, OF the Engineer Corps; Capt. c..
B. Wheeler, of the Ordnance Corps; Judge
Joseph Outwaite, of Ohio, civil member Of
the board; Lieut.. 1. N Lewis, recorder, and
Major Butler Chief of Ordnance Of the De-

Secretary Root said that the tests were
made in order that he might famiiiarize
himself with the various branches OF his
department and that the results were to
be kept secret because II published the
other nations of the world would know
exactly what this Government was doing
in regard to strengthening its power, and
he did not think it would be right to give
other countries the benefit of our knoGl-
edge of improved guns and high explo-
sives. He said that all the continental
powers in Europe were very exclusive in
the matter of military information.
1t is known, however, that the Secretary
yesterday witnessed tests with thorite, the
new high explosive, about which so much
has been published, and also tests of the
1sham shell, new method of throwing
high explosives and that a number of shots
were fired from 6, s. and 10-inch guns,
mounted on disappearing carriages and a
number of armor-piercing projectiles were
fired against specially prepared armors,
both the power of the projectiles and the
armor being given thorough tests. Then
followed experiments with samples of guns
and explosives to be used in the Philip
pines and also experiments with thorite,
but to all questions as to results no an
swers were made at the War Department
except that the tests were satisfactory to
the Secretary and the members of the
board. 1t was also stated that all tests in
future would be kept secret.

4 PECULIAR SITUATION
Judge Bookstayer's Opinion on the
Colonial Danes Status.
An Opinion Regarding the Appella-
tion of the Society-The Dissent
Cause of Patriotism and With
No Financial Gains in View.

NEW YORK, Sept. There will be con-
sternation in the ranks of the Colonial
Danes of America when they learn that
Judge Bookstaver, of the supreme court, has
refused TO enioin the Colonial Danes of the
State of New York and the National So
ciety of the Colonial Danes of America from
making use Of the words Colonial Danes. -
The Colonial Danes of America has men,
bership of about 300, while the National So
ciety has branches in thirty five different
States, with more than 1000 members The
than 500 members.
These organizations have disputed over
the use of the words Colonial Danes for
eight years.
Judge Bookstaver says the case is a
unique one, because no financial gain is
sought by either society, but as they are
working for patriotic and unselish ends
legal precedents should not be applied with
the same strictness as in ordinary cases
of trade marks. He says that If there is
any advantage in the use of the words
Colonial DANES" he would let them all
have it, even if they cannot settle their
differences and form a union. He wishes
them all godspeed and the fullest measure
Of success
Mrs. Elizabeth Coralie Gardiner is the
president of the Colonial Danes of America,
and Justine Van Rensselaer, Townsend is
president of the National Society. Some
women in this city in the spring of 1890
formed the Colonial Danes of America. The
membership was limited to women descend
ed from ancestors living in this country
during colonial days.
A Pennsylvania chapter was organized by
several Philadelphia ladies in April. 1891
About the same time the Pennsylvania So
ciety of Colonial Danes of America YVES also
organized in Philadelphia, and this society
made overtures to the New York organiza-
tion for union, on the basis of independ-
ent State organizations, which should even
tualIy unite into national society.
The New York society rejected the prop
osition and was incorporated under the
laws of this State. The Pennsylvania Sc
ciety carried out it's plan and formed the
National Society of Colonial Danes of
America, and in April, 1893 the Colonial
Danes Of the State of New York was in
corporated.

LEASE OF A RAILROAD.

DanVilIe for Niuetyufne Yenrs

The Southern Takes the Atlantic and
Dnnvi11e for Ninety-nfne Years
The Southern Railway has made another
and important acquisition in the lease OF
the Atlantic and Danville Railway, for
ninety-nine years. The stockholders of
both lines have agreed to the lease and it
will go into operation Immediately.
The Atlantic and Danville runs from
Norfolk to Danville. Va, 205 miles. 1t has
branch from the James River Junction to
Claremont. Va, fifty-one miles, and other
shorter branches, making a total of PTS
miles. The line has not been a paying
one. but since its reorganization in 1895,
by English capitalists it has paid operat-
ing expenses, interest on bonds, and a
small dividend to the preferred stock
holders. Jr
The line willIbe an especially valuable one
to the Southern for several reasons. It is
the only line running into Danville except
the Southern and short line, the Danyille
and Western, running to Stuart, Va, which
is owned by the Southern. The lease, there
fore gives the latter line the entire Dan
Vile business and shuts off all competition
This move also prevents the proposed ex-
tension of the Atlantic and Danville, south
to Columbia, S. c. which was to have been
a competitor of the Southern.
1t cannot be learned what the terms of
the lease are. The capital of the Atlantic
and Danville consists of S3,099, ,000 prefer
red. and 81, 1S0, ,G0O, common, stock, and it
has a bonded debt of s1.23S, 900. 1t is un-
derstood that both the bonds and stock are
largely held in England. The president of
the line is B. Newgrass, of London, Eng
land; the vice president, H. S. Haines, of
New York, and the general manager, c..
o. Haines, of Norfolk.

TRENTON, N. j., Sept. 1.-The eleventh
month of the fiscal year of the New Jer-

terday, showing the receipts from filing
fees to date to be s725,0oO. 1t is estimated
that the month Of September will more
than bring the total receipts for the year
above the $f5O,000 mark. The last fiscal
years receipts only footed up $125, 900. The
enormous increase is due to the immense
number of trusts chartered by the State
during the past six months. The records
show that 125 companies were incorporated
during the month Of August. and that the
States receipts for the filing of certificates
were s33,738. This is falling off of about
one-half from the record of July,

CHICAGO, Sept 1.-Dr. Nicholas Sem,
Chicago's leading surgeon. has reported
here from the Hawaiian Islands. In an in
terview he said: 1.-The time will come,
believe, when the Hawaiian Islands will be
treasured as the gem of the new American
possessions, discounting Porto Rico and
Cuba in many ways. On the island Nolo-
kai 1 shot two deer, four goats, two pea
cocks, five wild turkeys and a number of
pigeons, quail and beautiful Mongolian
pheasants- The game is SO plentiful that
two professional hunters have been i'm
ported from California to destroy the deer.
You see the people are anxious to preserve
their forests. and the deer kill the trees by
rubbing of the bark with their horns, at a
certain time in the development Of their
antiers."
