himself deeply affected, did his best to
 administer to the comfort of his | stricken uncle, whose new dignity he
 was the first to acknowledge.
 From all parts of the world there are still pouring into Cowes messages of 1 coincidence. They come from crowned | heads millionaires, tradesmen and | paupers and are variously addressed to l the Prince of Wales and the king of l England.
 Emperor Williams arrangements are not yet settled. His yacht will arrive here to-day Wednesday,, but it is be- lieved that he will not depart until af- ter the funeral Several other royal personages are likely to be present at the function, which will probably be a ceremony never to be equalled in this century.
 The record of the last days of the reign of Victoria is not easy to tell. The representative of the Associated Press was the only correspondent admitted to Osborne House, and his interview with Sir Arthur John Bigge, private secre- tary to the late queen, was the only off, cial statement that had been given out. For several weeks the queen had been failing.
 On Monday week she summoned Lord Roberts and asked him some very searching questions regarding the war in South Africa. On Tuesday she went for 8 drive, but was visibly affected. On Wednesday she suffered paralytic stroke, accompanied by intense psysical weakness. It was her first illness in all her eighty-one years, and she would not admit it. Then her condition grew so serious that, against her wishes, the family were summoned. When they arrived her reason had practically suc- cumbed to paralysis and weakness.
 The events of the last few days, de- scribed in the bulletins, are too fresh to need repetition. At the lodge gates the watchers waited nervously. Suddenly along the drive from the house came horseman, who ried "The queen is dead" as he dashed through the crowds. Then down the hillside rushed a myriad of messengers passing the fateful bulle- tin from one to another. Soon the sur rounding country knew that a king rul- ed over Great Britain. The local inhab- itants walked as if in dream through the streets of CoWes but they did not hesitate to stop to drink the health of the new monarch.

GORGE OR DARITL IN THE CAU-
 CASUS.

Eight miles from Vladikavkaz is the posting station of Balta; il miles farther is Lars; and five miles farther is the world-famous gorge of Dariel, the Caucasus Gates of Pliny, the dark and awful defile between Europe and Asia. Gradually, as we drive on, the hills rise and close in on us till at length they fall almost sheer to the edge of the rushing Terek, and the nar- row road, leaving only just room for these at the bottom of a rocky cleft. 5000 feet deen The air strikes chill q s a vault; not ray of sunshine enters: the driver stoops low and lashes his horses; instinctively we lapse into silence. The geologist calls this gorge a fault" for it is not a pass over the mountain chain, but a rent clear across It. To the imaginative traveller, how
 ever, it is a fit scene for the most won derful highway in history. Seventy years ago 1t was a perilous road. for avalanches, or the sudden outbursts of pent-up glacial streams, swept it from end to end, but the Russians have spent 0,0o0, 900 upon it and made 1t safe. In 1877 nearly all their troops and stores for carrying the war into Turkey and Asia came by this road, and it will be

But fhc nos tilitieS i'll South Africa shattered that nope. Throughout the war with the Boers she repeatedly lamented the casualties upon both sides, and in person she Vislied ne cots of wounded soldiers who had been brought to military hospitals in London. The war, with it's burden of griefs, warmed her aged heart with new affection toward Ireland, whose soldiers had fought loyalty at the front. 1t was this feeling ot sym to her approval of the plan to visit Ireland and thus to allay the passions of long feud
 Other Famous Reigns.
 England's greatest and most lasting fame has been won during the reigns of women. Her widest, most varied and most brilliant exploits in arms, commerce, letters and the arts have been achieved, for the most part, While the throne was occupied by princess es whose coronation was largely due to ac- cident and series of fateful lncidenCsand who might have been excluded from the succession in favor of some dull and vicious prince. The Elizabefffan era will be no more renowned in future history than the Victorian era, and the forty-iive years lule of Good Queen Bess, who was to when she died, was not more full of glory for Eng land than the reign of the mother and grandmother of kings who sat on the old throne of the Tudors for nearly sixty years and who, when she had already exceeded Elizabeth's age by seven years, presided at the councils of her own nation with indomi- table industry and approved acumen, and eSerted greater personal influence Ja the politics of the whole earth than any other sovereign.
 Outside England instances are recorded of even longer reigns than Queen Victoras. The records show q Hapsburg ruling the years. That was Leopold l., who succeeded his father and was succeeded by hls son. Louis XIV. of France did still better, hold ing his own as the Grand Monarch from 1643 to 1715, or seventy-two years, while Louis XIV. was well beloved for fifty -nine years.

British soldiers have had no share in such pillage.
 The property taken by British troops has not been left in the hands of those who seized it, but has all been put to- gether in warehouses under guard. It has then been placed in charge of prize fund committee, who have made

 There is still one other matter which
 must be mentioned. There is the mat
 ter of private footing. A facetious sug-
 gestion has been made that. after the example of "The Ladysmith Lyre," the newspaper correspondents here should set up a journal with the title of "The Daily Lute."

used again for the same purpose, al- though to a much less degree, for there is now direct railway connection from Moscow to Bakue, at one end of the Trans Caucasian railway, and there fore to Kars itself, by way of Tifis; and equally to Kars from Batum, at the other end, to which fortified port steam CTS would bring troops and supplies from Odessa and Novorossisk in the Black Sea. The gorges of the Yang-tse may be inlpressive-I have not seen thenl-but there is nothing in Europe which produces so profound an effect of dread up on the mind as this lonely, silent, gloomy, cold abysm of Dariel. You do not wonder that any people holding it could bar the way to the rest of the World--the only ground for sur- prise is that before the present road was constructed anybody ever got through it at all.

RESUME OF vICTORIA'S REIGN.
Wonderful Events During the Famous Vie
 tOrfan Era

Wonderful Events During the Famous Vic.
 torian Era.
 Queen Victoria had not reigned quite six ty-four years, for the date on which the sweet little Princess of Kent came to the throne at IS was June 2O 1887
 Of the preceding occupants of the British throne, only three have sat as long as fifty years, and they were Henry H., the oldest son of John of Magma Charta fame, who reigned about fifty years; Edward III. about fifty, and George H., who was King for more than fifty mine years. It is rather extraordinary that of the only three who can be directly compared with Victoria in this respect each was the third of his name in the list of England's kings.
 George I'll. was born June 4, 173S sue ceeded to the throne on October %, 176o when he was 22, became permanently in sane on his third serious attack dS1D, and died January % 1920 in his sgd year. He reigned, therefore, in name at least, from October 25, 1760, to January 29, 1920, or ifty-nine years three months and four days. Queen Victoria, reigning since June 20 1S37 exceeded that, and was sovereign longer than any other.
 When She Was Child
 The history of Queen yictoria's reign Is an era of the history of England and of all points of view and it is curious to ob- serve that, between the year of her birth, 1919, and the year of her accession. the preceding history or Lne BflClSl empire, and of some things which concerned it most nearly, was punctuated by important oc. currences which seem like preparations for the splendid era, which was to be distin. guished by her name, and the results and the still unfinished events of which we are now q part. She had scarcely been born when George H., her only rival in longey- ity, died On May of the next year 1921 Napoleon hreathed his last under English guard in St. Helena The first cabs were seen in London, the city of cabs. in 1923 British arms suffered their first reverse in Western Africa, in AshaDtee, in 1924 The London University. which may be regarded as step in the literary and scholastic fame which has been so enhanced in this reign, received it's charter in 1926. In the nevt year was fought virtually the decisive bat tie which freed Greece from the unspeak- able domination of the Turk when England and Russia and France fought together against the int1del as they may yet work together against him in this time of his latest atrocities. The last time forgery was punished by death in England, which was an important point in the modern bis- tory of capital punishment, was in 1929, and in that same year great city was for the first time policed by regular metropol- itan force, consisting of the "bobbies'' or 'peelerS" established by the exertIons of Sir Robert Peel, then Home Secretary in the Duke of Wellington's cabinet. In that same year the world-famous bus of Lon don began to roll through it's busy thor oughfares, and a wider and more Christian recognition of religious liberty was signified by the Roman Catholic Relief bill which permitted Roman Catholics to hold public offic@

 London, Jan. 22-At the offices o1 the Lord Chamberlain, St. James of the City Remembrancer, at the Guild hall and at the College of Heralds. the off, cials were busy to-day preparing fo1 the formalitieS which, for the first time in a generation, were to occur, the pro- claiming of a new ruler of the United Kingdom and India.
 i The City Remembrancer said to-day: Tt will depend on the pleasure of the new monarch to decide how far the an- cient customs will be modified to suit modern methods, hus in a country where precedents are so firmly adhered | to as England, 1t may be anticipated that we shall follow closely on the acts which prevailed when the queen as cended the throne.
 "The Privy council, which is a very large body, will meet at once at St. James Palace, where the form of proc lamation declaring that we, etcetera, with once voice and consent of tongue and heart declare and proclaim the high, mighty Prince Albert Edward, etc, who by the death of the monarch, has become our only lawful and right full liege, etc
 The proclamation will give the new title the king may assume; but this is not yet announced to us. The proclama- tion will be sent to the Herald's col lege, and the following day the Earl Marshal, the Garter King at Arms, the Heralds Purcuivants, and other off, cials, the College members, with the Household troops will proceed from the Palace, clad in their splendid surcoats, and proceed to Trafalgar Square.
 'There the Klng-at Arms will halt, command silence, and read the procla- nation. Proceeding down the Strand to Temple Bar, a halt will again be made, to demand an entrance into the City to proclaim the King. There the Lord Mayor Sheriffs In their state carriages will form a great procession, and when the Earl Marshafs party comes just within the city boundary, the proclama- ton will be read again, and the process sion will pass down Ludgate Hill and Cheapside to the Royal Exchange, where similar ceremonies will close the spectacle"

WHAT POM-POM GUNS ARE LIKE. The pom-pom or automatic machine gun has been on the market for ten years or more, but it is only within the last few years that any type of this gun has been used under service con- ditions and it is interesting to note that, according to Capt. Zalinski, one of the best-posted ordnance experts in the United States army, it is the only distinctly new element in warfare that has made an appreciable impression. Substantially, all the automatic guns in use are variants or developments of the familiar Gatling type, the guns used by both the United States navy and by the British forces being mostly of the Maxim or Maxim-N -Nordenfeldt pattern. These guns use metallic cartridges sim liar to those used in small arms, but of a caliber of 11a inches, throwin one
 pound shell The cartridges are placed in loop belt and this is attached to the gun. By a simple operation one of the cartridges is inserted in the barrel and is fired by pulling the trigger After this the force of recoil Is utilized to con- tinue the firing automatically as long as belts with cartridges are supplied.
 The automatic principle has been ap- piled in calibers up to 14-pounders. In the larger calibers hopper is used, as as serving better than the belt. Tn the pom-pom the recoil is all taken up in side a stationary casing and it's force is thus lost in displacing the carriage. Consequently, the gun does not budge when it is firing The gunner takes aim, guessing at the range. He fires about five shot, which can be done by holding the tripper in the "pulp' posi- ton for about one second. AS soon as the projectiles explode and he sees where they strike, he quickly adjusts his sights. During the war with Spain the vessels of the blockading squadron made some fine target practice along the coast of Cuba. The continuous stream of projectiles made the aiming of the gun as easy as the aiming of garden hose, and with the range once found, hundreds of shells could be put into almost exactly the same spot Buffalo Fxpress
