THE DEAD QUEEN.

To speak of Miss Victoria AEON
or Mrs. Albert Victim, would sound
very common and but few people
would know that it referred to the
dead Queen of Great Britain,
Empress of India and Tanner of
Ireland.
Queen Victoria's name, stripped
of all titles of royalty, was plain
Mrs. Albert Victim, for she was the
widow of Prince Albert, whose
family name was Victim. He was
descended from King Victim, the
founder of the house of Sake
Coburg- Gotha, contemporary of
Charlemagne. The present king
of England's name is therefore
Albert Edward Victim, not very
aristocratic sounding name by the
way. The Queens maiden name
was AEON, same as that of the duke
OF Cumberland.
The following is the inscription
on the coffin of Queen Victoria
Depositum
Serenissimae Potentissimae
ct Excellentissimae
Principis
Victoriae,
Del Gratia Britanniarm Reginae
Fidel Defensoris
ct Innie lmperatricis,
Obit XXI die January,

Following is a translation of the
inscription "Here rests the BODY
of the most serene, most puissant
and most excellent sovereign lady,
Victoria, by the grace of God,
queen of Great Britain, defender of
the Faith and empress of India.
She died on the twenty second day
OF January, in the year of our Lord,
1901, in the eighty-second year of
her age and in the sixty-fourth year
of her reign"

The second Inauguration OF
William Mckinley as President OF
the United States, came off Monday
of this week and was very brillian,
affair in spite of the very bad con-
duct of the weather, which as usual
on that occasion was as about as
dlsagreeable as it well could be.
The oath of Office was administered
to the President by Judge Melville
w. Fuller, Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court of the United States
and the President delivered his
address in a cold raw rain mixed
with snow. The parade was a
grand and gaudy affair in spite OF

STOLE EVERYTHING IN SIGHT.

Here is some interesting informa-
ton about our late lamented Legis-
lature from the special staff cores
pendent of the Wheeling News an
independent Republican paper
The silence of the grave prevades
the capitol. The hall of delegates
and senate chamber are Uttered with
waste paper, the only legacy left by
the legislature. The work of pre-
pairing the halls for the inaugural
ball will commence at once. Nothing
of value has been left behind by the
statesmen. Stationery, ink wells,
pens, pencils, waste baskets, docu-
mentary reports and in some in.
stances electric lamps have been
removed. The loot is complete.
Last night members were seen leay-
ing the building with waste baskets
piled full of stuff. What use thew
have for some of it is past under
standing, but the raging fever was
to steal something from the state.
Out of stock of five hundred
knives none is left.

Inc Deacon and His Polyphone Go on
Lecturing Tour.

FROM the pan Tucker Kicker.
Deacon Brown and his polyphone
have gone out on a lecturing tour.
The deacon delivered his first lee
ture to a select audience on Seng
Kun and as consequence his
Democracy has fallen into bad re-
pute. The Deacon had his poly
phone charged to the limit with the
latest Democratic campaign songs.
but during his absence and un-
known to him follower of Mark
Hammer loaded the polyphonc up
with the latest campaign songs.
After the audience had gathered in
the Deacon proceeded to open up
his lecture and introduced himself
and polyphone as follows
Ladies, Gentlemen, Boys and
Girls You all know me, but |
desire to introduce you 10 my
friend, Mr.. Polyphone, who has
been lately added to the Brown
family. We will proceed with the
evenings entertainment with a selec-
ton from the very latest Democratic
campaign songs, 1 will now start
the thing going for your edification. u
He did start it and below is the
result:
lust tell them that you saw me.
I'm on my way out west.
m going to my home down on the Platte,
thought free silver eloquence
Would make me president.
They tell me Twas talking through my hat. =
The Deacon's eyes bulged with
wonder and CONSERVATION and he
grabbed the polyphone and gave il
yank that threatened it with de-
struction, hut quickly recovering
himself he turned to the audience
and said:
"There seems to be a little mis-
take here. The selection inst fin
ished was cold Hundred" and l
have no doubt but that you have
all sang it at Church and Sunday
school. just got the wrong twist
on the thing was all. will now
proceed to give you the very latest.
Here it is
We ride. we shout.
We yell right out.
We make our presence felt!
We're all for Teddy.
Rough and ready
Theodore Roosevelt
This time the Deacon's eyes bull
ged out like two full moons and his
mouth flew open so wide that it
looked like tunnel. He grabbed
his polyphone and chucked it under
his arm and in measure recover.
ing his equilibrium he turned to his
audience and said "There seems
to have been another slight mistake.
The piece just rendered was another
hymn, but forgot which one. 1
will now disappear and fix this poly
phone so that it will be all right.
The audience will please remain
seated"
The Deacon did disappear for
good. The audience remained
until time to milk the cows and feed
the hogs, then gave up in disgust
and left for their homes. AS to the
Deacon there is no certainty about
his whereabouts, but the most au-
thentic report says that he is sitting
on top of Bald Knob on the other
side of Sassafras Hollow in deep
meditation while the snow flakes
are playing hide and-seek over his
marble countenance and the wintry
blizzard is whistling through his
whiskers.
