difference between the, editor ard

wife disagree with each other
very materially. She sets things
to write and he writes things to

RESUMES WARPATH
Starts On Crusade Against
Topeka Saloons.
WITH A LITTLE RATCHET

Declares She Will Fulfil Lords Mis-
sion to Her TO "Clear Out All
Joints In Topeka Before Leaving
With Rocks and Hatchet.
TOPEKA, Jan. 31-Mrs. Carrie Nation,
armed with new hatchet, started
on crusade against the Topeka sa-
looms at s:30 o'clock this morning. She
called on five. The first visit was to the
Apex, the finest saloon III the city, but
no damage was done She was put out
of the place. She said she merely wanted
to lecture. However, if violence was
shown her she intended getting i'll her
work. She did no violence at the other
four saloons.
A crowd of several hundred people
followed her down the street, most Of
whom were sympathizers The police
tried to arrest her, but the crowd pre-
vented.
Mrs. Nation says the Lords mission
to her. "Clear out all the joints in To-
peka before leaving" will be fulfilled,
and if the authorities do not suppress
the joints she will smash them, using
rocks and hatchets.

Preparations for the eFuneraI-Grand
Military Display.
LONDON, Jan. 31.-The United States
embassy will send TO Windsor Castle
three magnificent floral pieces-wreaths
from President Mckinley and Mrs. Gar
field and cross from Ambassador
Choate. The presidents wreath is 8
feet In diameter and of solid camelias,
lilies of the valley. tulips and roses,
with cluster of mauve orchids III the
center Mr.. Choates cross is of the
same flowers. Mrs. Garfield's wreath is
composed of arums, Neapolitan violets
and greenery.
Members OF King Edwards S suite tell
their friends that his majesty appears
overwhelmed by the sense of the respon-
slbll1ties of kingship. Whereas form
erly he was genial but exacting and ir-
rltable regarding official matters, he has
become profoundly grave and exceed
ingly conslderate to those about him in
small as well as in important matters.
He has worked many hours daily since
the queens death, disposing of two or
three weeks arrears of public business
which she had not been able to attend to.
Great Expectations.
Society expects that King Edward
will make St. James the most brilliant
court OF Europe. hold night drawing
rooms instead of the somewhat dreary
a affQcnnnF1 fin of rlN
OF century, and provide refreshments
instead of leaving the guests to eat
sandwiches in their carriages, under the
eyes of the crowd. Those who have
been presented to Queen Victoria will
be entitled to attend King Edwards
drawingrooms, after submitting their
names to the lord chamberlain.
lG is hoped the king will revive the
custom of the monarch visiting the cas-
ties of the nobility, and also revive the
holding Of drawingrooms at Holyrood
palace. Whether he will adopt the pre-
rogative of kissing the cheeks of the
ladies presented, followed by the vice.
roys of India and Ireland, is one of the
topics OF society gossip.
Grand Military Display.
For the funeral, $4,000 soldiers will be
under arms. Ihree thousand men will
march in the procession and the re-
mainder will line the route. Detach-
ments of troops in the procession will
represent every branch of the army,
navy, colonials, yeomanry and volun-
teers. The military display, however,
will not be spectacular. All the men
will wear overcoats, except the Irish
foot guards on duty at Buckingham pal
