The first Parliament of the reign OF

by Queen Alexandra, the Duke Of York
and Cornwall and the Duke OF Con-
naught and many others of tho royal fam

Tie last state ceremony OF the kind
took place i'll 1881, when Queen Victoria
opened Parliament, accompanied by the
prince consort, and since the death of the
latter nothing equal to Thursdays pomp
has been witnessed in London in connec-
tion with the opening of the legislature.
Not since the wedding OF the then Prince
of Wales and Princess Alexandra has the
gorgeous state coach been seen in the
streets of the capital. In this coach ON
Thursday the King and Queen and Prin-

Mrs. Nation Arrested Four Times

Bond Signed by One of the Liquor
Men. "a Negro-Other Items.

Mrs Carrie Nation put in busy day Il,
Topeka. Kan, Sunday, and as result the
capital city has experienced more genuine
excitement than can be remembered by
the oldest nhabitant. Mrs. Nation liter
ally cramned the day with thrilling ep
sodcs. She succeeded in having the con-
tents of notorious joint smashed: broke
into cold storage plant in search of
liquors. ruined the mirrors on several bars
found in livery barn; addressed a large
mass meeting of men and women, and was
arrested four times.
The last time the law laid its hands upon
her was when Mrs. Nation emerged from
the church where the mass meeting had
been held.
Sunday night Mrs. Nation announced
that she would begin Monday morning
where she left OFT. and not rest until all
the joints in Topeka had been closed.
The last time She was arrested she was
landed in Jail, but was finally released on
bond signed by one of the liquor men, a
negro.

"A Victoria, B. e., dispatch of Feb. 10
says that what is feared will be one of the
most horrible mine accidents in the his
tory of the Dominion took place Friday
forenoon at the Union milscs, owned by
the yelling Colliery Company, of which
James Dunsmuir, the premier of the prov

AS near as can be gathered, the explosion
took place at about II a. III. in No.'b shaft,
situated in the village of Cumberland.
There were sixty men in it when the eXplo-
sion took place, and not one of them es-
capped The explosion ignted the mine,
wrecking the shaft from midway down to
the bottom, and filling it with solid mass
of rocks, earth and timbers.
The first explosion was followed by sew

In his address 10 tue Massachusetts g.

"In Washington, am sorry to say, we

Chicago last year matters looked bright,
but they don't look SO now in Washington

with congressman, and chief among them
are some who wear the little bronze but

"Ile time may come when the head of
this organization may he called upon to
report on the actions, and he will not he
slow to so report, though it may reflect
upon the cOmrade who stands in the high

WEYLER RULES SPAIN
RIOTS LEAD TO PROCLAMATION
OF MARTIAL LAW.
Wedding of the Princess to a Partisan
of Don Carlos Accomplished While
Troops Fill Capital and Disorders
Continue on All Sides.

The brilliant wedding ceremonies at
Madrid, when Princess Maria of the AS
turias was married to Prince Charles of
Bourbon, were attended in parts of Spain
by manifestations which fnirly threaten-
revolution. 1t was expected that The
union of the princess to one of the de-
tested Carlists would call forth a pro-
test, but such scenes as We're witnessed
Thursday, not only in Madrid. but in
Barcelona, Granada, Valencia and Ma
laga, indicate that the populace has
reached the point of desperation which
leads to overt acts. A royal wedding is
one of the occasions when, if ever. a
loyal people are disposed to enter into
the festival spirit with enthusiasm. The
sullcn crowds in Madrid were so obvious
ly threatening that detachmcnts of cav
airy patrolled the street during the time
of the ceremony. The gravity of the sit'

uatiOn is disclosed in the fact that it was
deemed advisable to proclaim Il state Of
siege, the city thus being placed under
martial law.
Because the local authorities were I'M
able to maintain order affairs We're placed
in the hands of Gen. Weyler, and the cap
tain general, who was driven from Cuba
by American sentiment, appears to be
now in supreme command. Gen. Weyler
issued IL stringent proclamation. There
was bitter opposition in the cabinet to the
radical measures taken, and the outcome
of the situation, Il correspondent says. is
awaited with anxiety.
III the Queen Regent and her minis
rial advisers have any means at hand for
controlling the outburst of public feel
ing there is nothing to show it. The sit
uation in some respects resembles that in
Brazil when the wave of rcpublicanism
swept Dom Pedro off the throne. The
Queen herself is not loved; her son, the
youthful king, is looked upon as Il weak
ling, destined to an early death. and the
union of the Queens eldest daughter to
Carlist and a reactionary now puts
ban upon the next heir to the throne
There is reason to believe that a large
eleuleuu OI Iue SpulllSu puDllC WOulu F;tCI-
er see the throne overturned than to per-
init it to be occupied by queen under
such influences as must now surround
Princess Marin.
During years of misgovernment, they
have been heavily taxed and as persist
emily robbed by the corruptionists who
hold political office. The marriage now
contracted comes as Il last straw upon
this burden of grievances, and were
leader Of the republican forces to rise
and assert himself mt this juncture the
Queen would have little with which to
combat them. The reactionaries and con-
servatives hold the places, both military
and civil, but they are comparatively few
in number and without popular influence.
The Queen, moreover, has no such strong
man as Canovas to guide her and hold the
people in subjection. Until recently she
had her choice between casting her for
tunes with the liberal and republican ele-
ment and trusting to their loyalty to
maintain the throne or uniting with the
reactionists. She has chosen the latter
alternative.
