to the gun carriage bearing the coffin.
The alarm and chagrin of the king and
emperor, who had hurried up to ascertain
the cause of delay in the procession, leav-
ing Windstor station, was patent upon
their countenances. The horses struggled
in the traces and the coffin was almost
thrown from the gun carriage. Lord Rob-
erts asked the king for permission to take
out the horses and substitute for them
the jackies who had come up from Ports
mouth as an honorary guard. This sug-
gestion was quickly sanctioned, and the
last time Victoria's body was borne before
her subjects it was by her royal handy
men, who at an opportune moment saved
the situation. Tonight the king sent
message of thanks to Prince Henry of
Prussia for the services of the sailors of
his command
The other hitch occurred during the re-
ligious part of the ceremony. The SER
vice at st. Georges chapel was brief, but
beautiful. The choral service had assumed
a fitting elimination to the martial pa
rades. The trembling voice of the arch
bishop of Canterbury, who is almost blind.
had scarcely ended the final benediction
before he turned to go up the altar steps.
His sight and strength failed him and he
tottered and was on the point of falling
when the archbishop of York, who had
been standing some distance behind him,
advanced and caught his hand and gently
led the venerable prelate to the holy table.
Then they both knelt, the greatest dieni
taries of England's church, next in rank to
the royal blood, their heads bowed ON the
purple altar cloth.
The body OF the queen was left alone at
the altar, save for the stern figures of her
gentlemen at arms, with halberds in hand,
guarding the remains as the bodies of
Edward w., Charles l. and Henry VII.
were guarded in the same chapel hundreds
of years ago.
Both Ambassador Choate and Secretary
White walked through the streets OF
Windsor with the procession. The royal
sentiments regarding the expressions OF
American sympathy before mentioned were
conveyed to them in the blue drawing
room after the royal luncheon in the Wa
terloo chamber, to which they were in
vited in company with few other nota
bles. Messrs Choate and White returned
to London tonight in company with the
Austrian ambassador, Lord Lansdowne
and number of others.

London. Feb. 2@"It has been great

before the house Of commons. sand it has

All London, and thousands from the re-
motest villages of the kingdom, paid their
final homage to the queen today IN her
capital and assuredly, as Mr.. Balfour
said, the end of her reign, which Is now
passed into history, was happy. Deep
solemnity filled all hearts. There was
reminiscent grief-the feeling that the emu
pire's greatest institutions were missing
but no such sorrow as surrounded the cot
fins of Lincoln and Garfield, cut off before
their work was done. Everyone felt that
the inevitable death had dealt kindly with
their sovereign; that her passing had been
as happy as her life was useful They
gathered to honor her memory rather than
to mourn her loss.

This city tonight has somewhat of a holi-

hospitals cared for 1900 persons who were
injured in the crowd. Of this number,
however, 60 were hurt only, including po-
icemen, soldiers and a number of people
suffering from broken limbs.
The political phases are being discussed.
The remarkable predominance of Germans
and German influence is noteworthy. EN-
peror Williams officers, soldiers and sail
ors were more conspicuous in all the cere-
monies than were those of all other ma
tons together This has had the effect of
popularizing Germany with the people who
recently regarded her as their most menac-

men realize that King Edwards reign be-

All Business stopped.

All business ceased, even the drinking
houses closing their doors during the day.
The newspapers suspended publication,
and life in London, like the rest of the
empire, turned from its customary chan
nels and was focused upon three miles of
West End streets upon the coffin contain
ing the body which was now merely a
symbol of Victoria's self, who often before
Londoners had cheered, assembled as they
were today, but on occasions of rejoicing.
To an American the ceremonies, with all
the theatrical trappings of royalty, were
not more expressive than the funeral of a
chief magistrate chosen by the people. The
kings and princes, beneath silver helmets
and wearing gold braided coats, were men,
but the sight seen of the king riding after
the coffin of his mother and queen, with
four other kings and half hundred OF
the highest royalties of European dynas-
ties following, and the hereditary quaint
attaches of court, was one never to be for
gotten.
The popular mourning was less general
and ostentatious than it would have been
in the United States. The multitudes
were remarkable. The whole ceremonial
including the massing of 10000 troops and
the entertainment of all the visiting per
sonages, was an admirable example Of or
oanization

LOTTERY PLAN TO BE USED.
Indian Lands Will be Drawn for in
July and August.


The government is arranging for one
of the biggest lottery drawings ever
held, with 100000 acres of land
divided into homestead tracts as the
prize. 1t is expected that fully 1,00o,-
900 people will engage in the drawings,
which will take place during the
months of July and August.
The government recently acquired
title to the lands in Oklahoma that
were owned by the Kiowa, Commanche
and Apache tribes, and according to
the terms of proclamation to be is
sued soon, practically the entire terri
tory is to be thrown open to settle
ment.
In order to avoid the ''rushes'
which have always accompanied pre-
vious openings of public lands, Secre-
tary Hitchcock has devised new
scheme for alloting the tracts.
The lands are to be awarded on
lottery system, with no crowding or
rushing on the part of the homestead
ers and no disputes over titles. The
indications are that the drawings will
be on larger scale than those of the
famous Louisiana lottery during its
palmiest days. The entire area is to be
surveyed and the various subdivisions
laid out. These will be numbered and
registered according to careful
method. AS the applications for home
steads are received they will be regis
tered and numbered also, after the re-
quirements have been filed. When
the time for entering claims has ex-
pred, the Secretary will direct the
drawings to be made. The slips bear
ing the numbers of the tracts will be
drawn one at time, and the awards
made to the applicants with cores
ponding numbers. Each subdivision
will consist of 100 acres of land !,
The department has. already dis
covered several attempts on the part
of private individuals to turn dis
honest penny on account of the APP
preaching drawings. Agencies have
been established in certain western
towns, and advertisements sent out
representing that claims for these
lands can be put through in advance
of the regular allottments. These So
called agencies have been brought to
the attention of Secretary Hitchcock,
and he has placed the matter in the
hands of the First Assistant Attorney
General for the Interior Department,
Judge Vandeventer, with directions to
prosecute those who are back of the
schemes. No person is to have any
advantage whatever in the drawings,
and it will be impossible for any in
fiuence to belexerted to obtain choice
lots for favorite claimants. By a spec
ial provision of the law, however, vet
Grams of the Civil War are to be given
certain advantages in the proceedings
that are to be followed in acquiring
title.-Dayton Times.

Reciprocity Treaties Doomed.

The reciprocity treaties, l2 or II H. number, which Mir. Kasson hns nego tiated with SO much labor and pans III order to secure concessions for the manufacturing and agricultural inter- ests of the United States, are doomed, says the Chicago Records Washington correspondent Two or three of them which have no particular importance will perhaps be ratified, but the opposl- ton to the rest, asd. Tn fact, to all of importance, Is said to be sufficient to prevent them from recelviug the sup- port of two-thirds of the senate. strange to say the strongest opposition comes from the republican side and from the leaders ol the party, who, as the member of the Iowa legislatnr. said about prohibition, are ln favor oi the reciprocity policy, but are "agin" its enforcement.
 These treaties are of almost incalcu lable value to the wheat, flour, provi- sion, dairy, cotton seed oil and other agricultural interests of the United States, because they secure the remov- al of embargoes upon the importation of those articles into the countries with which the treaties are made and a re- moval or considerable reduction of duties which will bring them within

the reach of the poorer classes and thus largely increase tbe consumption of American duur, butter, preserved meats, bacon, ham, lard aud other pork products. The same treaties se- cure equally valuable advantages for the manufacturers of agricultural i'm plements, machinery of every kind, all sorts ol manufactured goods, furniture, iron and steel of every description, leather goods and nearly everything that we produce in this country.
 The ratification of these treaties would materially advance the prosper ity of the country by increasing our export trade, and yet Mir. Aldrich and the New England senators are fighting them because they fear that the French manufacturers of cheap jewelry and other petty notions will compete with those of Mnssac achusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut. Senators Sewell and Kean of New Jersey are afraid of com petition in dress trimmings and the California seuators of the competition in waluuts. Senators Hanna and For aker are afraid of reduction of the duty on carpet wool from II to cents pound. Carpet wool is not produced in this country, but somebody has sug- gested that If the duty Is reduced, 1t might be used to aduterate the finer wools in the manufacture of cheap clothing.
 It would pay the manufacturers of agricultural implements or the millers or pork packers of the country to buy up and destroy all the factories ln the United States that manufacture pinch beck jewelry and dress trimmings and buy up all the walnut orchards of Cali fornia and cut down the trees.

Expedition to Sumatra 10 View the
 the Eclipse.

Preparations are being made at Washlugtpn for tue expedition which will be sent by the naval observatory tu Sumatra for the purpose of observ- ing the eclipse oi the sun on the 18th of May next The party will be under the direction of Prof. Skinner and will include Prof Eichelberger, Assistant Astronomer Little, Prof. Peter, Dr. Jewell aud Mir Dinwiddie. These will leave San Francisco on government transport for Manila some time next March
 The eclipse will be total one, and its extreme duration of six minutes will reuder It of especial value for the purpose of observation. It will be remem bered that the duration of the last total eclipse, May 2S, 1900. was but one minute and 30 seconds, its brevity proving great handicap to observers.
 It Is designed te make the present expedition very complete in all its ap poinrments, slO,0O0 being appropri ated by congress for expenses. The instruments necessary are being made ID Washington. These include a sei rf magnificent cameras of gigantic di menslons. by means of which series of photographs of the eclipse will be taken Those photographs, 1t IS ex pected, will show ths structural details of the corona or halo surrounding tn, sun Ill manner that has never before been possible to obtain. The datn derived from the observations made ul tue last eclipse, relating to the myster, Ious uppenduge of the sun, has proved extremely unsatisfactory, and the real nature of the so called gaseous envel. ope surrounding the lumi9ary remains as great Il mystery as ever.

A Sanctum Episode,

The editor sat musing in his paper cushioned chair: There were clippings in his whiskers, there was paste stuck in his hair; On his brow grim care was sitting and his feature seemed to age As he wrestled with a topic for the editorial page. He had chased thought from cover and had almost run it down, When there wandered in his sanctum an old friend from out of town; And he spent an hour in talking of the crops and politics, And of learning who'd got married and who'd journeyed OCT the Styx. When the gossip was exhausted and bis friend had left that shop, He agaln pursued the topic to a sort of mental kop: And he murmured, "Now I've got 1t, " in a glad, triumphant tone, When there came an urgent ringing at the office telephone. Twas a message from subscriber, " who said. Editor, fear That you didn't get my letter, as it failed, sir, to appear, There are lots who'd like to read it, twas about the mission here Of the twentieth century female, a. defining of her sphere.' When he'd promised her to print it. and had settled down to write, He discovered that his idea, meantime
 had taken flight; And he searched this way and that
 way till he noted with distress, By the clock upon the mantel, thai
 twas time to go to press. In despair he grabbed paper and ht slashed from out page The opinions there recorded of fel
 low writer-sage: The subject was matter to his read
 CTS wholly strange, But the signature appended was famil
