CORONATION CHAIR.
THAT OF EDWARD VII. A QUEER
OLD RELIC.

LONDON. Feb. 8.-Under tie corona
ton chair, at the broad end Of the chapel
of st. Edward the Confessor, is a stone
Of small intrinsic value, a bit of the wall
of old Dunstaffnage castle, some say,
yet absolutely beyond price. 1t is the
famous coronation stone, block Of dull
ed-yeIlow sandstone. such as Is common
on the west coast of Scotland. In inches
1t measures rs by is by 10. Edward I.
brought It to London in 1897, and framed
it IN the old coronation chair Of oak,
under the seat5of which it Is placed. He
sat on it then in regal state to signify
his conquest Of the northern kingdom.
Edward VII. will sit ABOVE that stone
when the time of his coronation comes.
No one knows how many monarchs
have been crowned above this ancient
relic. All British rulers since the first
Edward have followed his example,, and
tradition says the. stone was in use for
many centuries before. According to
one account Jacob slept omit at Bethel.
Thence some one carried 1t into Egypt,
where Gahelus, prince Of Athens having
espoused a daughter Of Pharoah, came
into possession of 1t and carried 1t to
Spain. After taiSss one Simon Brech took
tt aboard ship with him for an anchor,

The bill introduced by Peterson, which
provides that continued use of a high
way without specified time over mineral
lands shall constitute 1t public high
way, not to be changed without consent
of the commissioners Of the county In
which the road is located, may be a
measure which will work all right in the
mineral section Of the state, but It's ex.
enption from operation on lands opened
to homestead entry will not make it an
object of any consideration to the coun-
ties east Of the river.
The demands Of the hospital for the in
sane at Yankton have been fled with the
appropriation committees. They aggre-
gate $265, 000. Two years ago the total
amount appropriated for this institution
was $1S3,810 for maintenance for the two
years, $4,000 for new buildings and 500
600 for deficiencies, or a total of $3.50 80
all that was asked for. The superintend-
ent this year asks for $45, coo for the
completion Of the building authorized in
1889. $1,000 for a deficiency in fuel, and
$4,000 for deficiency in maintenance For
maintenance from July, 1901, to July, 1903,
he asks 100000, or 100000 for a year It
will be seen from this that $4,000 is
wanted for the completion of a building
that was to have been erected for $685.
600, or $4,000 more than the original ap-
preparation. This building. by the way,
is said to contain the largest assembly
hall in the state.
The senate committee has decided to
report favorably the pure food and dairy
commission bill practically as it came
from the house. with the exception that
the section providing for license for
buttermakers has been restored in order
to make the bill uniform. The provisions
of this measure have heretofore been
given in detail. 1t is believed the bill
will meet the approval of the senate.
The defeat Of the resolution providing
for submitting to the people the question
of woman suffrage was anticipated by
both friends and foes The final vote in
favor of shelving the subject stood rs to
II in the senate. Senators Williamson, of
Lake, and Stoddard, of Turner. spoke
in favor of the proposition, and no voice
was raised against it.

That the Board Should
be Ousted.
Will Profit by M'MiIlen's
!, Tip,
And Endeavor to Attend Council
Meetings Regularly.

Maybe it would have been better for
the peace and content of the Board
had President McMillen not criticised
Councilman Sawyer for his Irregular
ity i'll attending meetings Of Council:
His criticism has brought my sin
l will try to attend more regularly"
remarked Mr.. Sawyer to a Democrat
reporter Thursday evening. II had
always aimed to be present when mat
ters Of particular Importance were to
be considered, but by reason of my
observations taken at the last meet
ing l must agree with MI. McMillen
that all the Councilmen should be
present as regularly as possible"
1t will be recalled that Mr.. Sawyer
on Monday night stated-"You can
oust the Board of Commissioners for
incompetency, and IL blow is struck
to tear down that bridge at Cherry
street, Tuesday morning, shall pre-
pare a resolution to oust every men,
ber Of the Board for incompetency."
The question under discussion was
the matter Of awarding to the King
Bridge Co., contract to build bridge
across the canal at Cherry street,
with span of 45 feet, when the span
of the canal is only 21 feet. The Com
missloners said the cost of the bridge
would be $4,000, but Council believed
it folly to spend so much money for
an ordinary bridge across the canal.
For months Council had demonstrated
against the plans of the Board, but
the latter would not relinquish Its
purpose, and moreover intimated that
the bridge would not be built unless
the plans of the Board were carried
out Contractors had not been invited
to bid on one plan, and accordingly
bid in a hap-hazard way. The Boards
doing business in this way led to Mr..
Sawyer's charge of incompetency. He
suggested that q plan be prepared, If
the bridge We're considered necessary,
and all contractors be allowed to bid
on it. .
1t is also a matter of history that
the Board hastily called Joint meet
ing with the Council Tuesday morn
ing to inspect the old bridge, and upon
its being decided that a new one is
necessary readily assented to a re-
advertisement for bids. following per-
fectly the line suggested by Mr.. Saw
yer, Monday night, and which Council
has been urging for some time, but
without avail. The promise Of res
olutlon to oust for incompetency put
new life into the Board.
But Mr.. Sawyer Is still Of the opin-
ion that the Board should be ousted
for incompetency on general princi-
pies. Personally, l like all its mem
bers," he said to reporter for the
Democrat but their acts, In my judg-
ment, have shown them to be wholly
incompetent.
~ believe the present members were
appointed largely for the purpose of
paying political debts. j am ready to
vote at any time 70 remove every men,

never be any danger of tunneling,
as the rock is so full Of springs that

"The vaults are built. of solid

tions with the silver, as it is so
bulky and heavy it could never be

Mark Twaln,s Discount.

A good story is told of Mark
Twain and a booksellers clerk.
Twain was formerly a partner in n
publishing firm, and one day he went
into bookstore, and, picking up a
book, he asked the clerk the price OF
it. He then said that as publisher
he was entitled to 80 per cent dis
count. The clerk told him that was
all right, and then Twain said:
"And as | am also an author am
entitled to so per cent discount for
that reason, am ! not ?"
TO this also the clerk assented.
"Then | am a personal friend OF
the proprietor's, and | presume you
will allow me the usual 25 per cent
discount on that score"
Again the clerk bowed assent.
"Under those conditions l think
! will take The book" said the hu.
norist. How much?"
The clerk did some figuring with
his pencil and then said, without al
lowing smile to intrude upon the
solemnity Of the occasion:
Gas ! figure it we owe you the
book and 81 1-2 cents in money
We shall be glad to have You call
again"

Beating the Slot Machines.

The slot machine seemed groan-
ing with a wealth of nickels when
the collector came to the cigar store
to open it. As he turned out the
coins a bystander remarked, "See all
the money!
"Not on your lifep' replied the
collector. "The game isn't what il
used to be. Nearly half of these
are no good. Seew And he deftly
separated the coins into three piles.
One, and not much the larger, rep
resented the quota of bona fde
nickels Another was composed Of
coins recently issued by a depart
ment store as a souvenir of an ami
yersary The third pile was simply
a lot Of lead disks cut exactly in the
size Of five cent piece.
Chats the work Of the printers"
explained the collector. "They have
facilities for making these things
out of waste metal from the type
setting machines, and they beat
every slot game in town. So, you
see, our business isn't what it is
cracked up to be."-Philadelphia
