along the route were thronged with thou
sands of people. however, women in par

These in control of the train had ar
ranged that it should remain in the Union
Station until Prince Henry's return to il.
The local committee had arranged that it
back down to Union Boulevard and there
take him on board at the end of his drive.
Cavalrymen in Waiting.
This was the plan that was carried out.
and half an hour before Prince Henry's
carriage with its Gathering escort of
Regular Army cavalry came in sight.
nearly 1000 well-dressed men, women. and
children were assembled at the place
waiting for him. AS his carriage stopped
near his car Cavalry A Squadron. from
the Fourth United States Regiment, drew
up, with their officers in front and the
men forming long. even line.
The spectacle the soldiers made caught
the fancy of the official photographer
Prince Henry has brought with him, and
he climbed the ladder of signal tower
near by and took several snapshots at
the scene.

A Picturesque Farewell.

When the train moved away and the
crowd was cheering and waving handker-
chiefs, and Prince Henry was waving his
farewell from the rear platform, the cav
alrymen brought their sabres to a salute
and sat their horses as motionless as
statues until the train had swept by and
was out of sight.
1t was by all odds the most effective
and picturesque farewell the prince has
had in all his travels up to date.

The Trip Through the State One Con-
tinuous Reception.

The Chicago and Alton Railway laid
itself out to carry the prince over its
line in high style. Conductor and train
men wore handsome rosettes with the
American and German colors radiating
from bronze Prussian eagle in the CEN
tire. The pick of all the men on the road
manned the train. The engineer was Pete
Rafferty,. who has been travelling up and
down the Alton Pike for thirty-ive years.
The conductor was Abe Corey, sixty-five
years old and straight as an arrow, and
the Chesterfield of the road

Guest of the Prince.

President FELTON,, of the Alton Road
also accompanied the train 10 Chicago.
He was the guest of Prince Henry at din
ner, and it fell upon him to answer the
innumerable questions the prince asked
about the country and its resources
through which the train passed
The prince expressed much surprise at
the magnitude of the great prairie farms
that stretched away in unbroken land to
the far-off horizon on both sides of the
track. He saw a number of trains laden
with coal and asked many questions about
the coal supply in the State, expressing
great interest when told that the train
was then running over miles upon miles
of untouched coal beds.

o gazing the skin of young pig on
The burued back of small negro girl at
tue Virginia Hospital in Richmond on
Saturday ia the presence of anumber OF
,hvsicians and a large body Of students.
he operation lasted several hours, and
consisted OF planting small bits OF skin
from the animal on the raw flesh OF the
child where no skin-making material was
left. The use Of pig skin is an expert
ment, and as far as known 1t Is the
fist time it was ever used. 1t is ex-
pected that in lime the human cuticle
around he large sores Will spread
sufficiently TO take charge Of the substl-
TUE pig skin. DIR. Mcclure exhausted
every effort to secure human cuticle, and
the adoption Of the pig skin was final
resort. 1t was necessary to cover the
large bare spots in order 10 save the
c,nlds I-fe. While the operation was
about to commence DR.. Mcclure re-
ceived an ohes from an unknown woman
in Washington 10 furnish the necessary

offer. audit came too late. The surgeons
of the Jail and penIteutiary were asked

turn for freedom, but the prorosltlon
failed to commend itselfto any member
of the cOlOred Iece.

RHODE ISLAND POLITICS.

hIlOlJE 1CLANit Il JILL w.
STATE LIKELY TO GET IN DEMOCRATIC
CoLUMN-ALDRIcH' SEAT IN JEoP-
ARDY.
One of the biggest surprises OF last
TUESDAYS election, as surprising to the
democrats as it was humiliaiing to the
republicans, was the great political up
heavsl in Rhode Island. 1t is especially
unfortunate for the republicans because
of the fact chat Senator Aldrich's seat
in the Senate is placed in jeop-
ardy. The fight did not attrack much
attention outside the boundaries OF the
State. the democrats believing themselves
doomed 10 de:eat and the republicans
confidently holding to the opinion that
nothing could happen which would cause
them to lose control of the State. When
the votes were counted, however they
showed that the democratic candidates
for governor and len enant governor had
been elected and it is probable chat the
Official count will show that the demo-
cratic ca ldidate for attorney general is
successful also. Besides, the democrats
elected to Congress from the First dis
trict Ma;or ID. l.. ID. Granger, Of
Providpce and only lost the Sec
ond district by narrow margin.
The Legislature is still republican,
on Joint ballot but should the
democ,vts make many gains two years
hence, when a successor to Senator Aid
rich is to be chosen, it will seriously en-
danger, if not entirely eliminate, his
chances for reelection. Two years ago
Senator Wetmore was reelected uDau-
imously by the joint assembly, but
this year less than fifty ballots in the
CITY of Woonsocket will determine which
party will control the assembly, al
though The Senate is still strongly re-
publican. Two years hence the repub-
licaus Will be obliged to make a strong
fight for control of the Legislature.
Fourof the five cities of the State are
now in the hands of the democrats,
with democratic members of the Legis-
lature, and the republicans can only win
by retaining The country districts. Two
wears ago Governor Kimball, republi-
can. was elected bv more than 5000
majority. Last Tuesday he was de-
feaied by DR.. Garvin, democrat, whose
majority is more than 1000.
Two years ago Rep esentative Bull was
elected 90 Congress by majority OF
7105. and this year he is de'eated by
Mayor Grange by more than 1000
voies Representative Capron Two yea!
a-o had mole than 5000 majority, aud
this yer he won by less than 500 votes.
Represen alive Bull, as one OF the proml-
neat membes of he committee on naval
affairs. has been instrumental in obtain
ing large appropriations Zoe the nava
s.ation at Newport, but neither this facl
nor bis personal popularity saved the day
for him. Local ,ondiiOhs a.e said u

that Miss Busch be thought of as to her
good deeds, not as to her yielding to
temptation. He asked, after a brief
PRAYER for clemency ior TIE woman's
soul. that Crock Of Ages be sung and
at it conclusion announced that the cas-
ket would not be opened. Disappoint-

ed. for as the caske. was pushed down
the aisle the audience arose and nearly
blocked its passage. The bodies OF Rev.

remembered, were found after they had
had committed suicide.

GEORGE TVS CORONATION.

Although the cornation of George ". is justly described as the most mag nificent of modern times, some of it's features would not add to the dignity of next weeks ceremony. An officer who was on guard on the raised and covered i platform on which the procession pass ed to the Abbey has left this curious picture of the crowd: Little Town send. the chief police officer of Bow Street, with his flaxen wig and broad brimmed hat, was to be seen hurrying from one end of the platform to the other, assuming immense importance. On the approach of the cortege you heard this officious person, dressed with little brief authority. halloeing with all his might, Gentlemen and ladies, take care of your pockets, for you are surrounded by thieves, and hearty laughter responded to Mir. Townsend's salutary advice"
 The pickpockets were really there, and their booty was great Nor did the robbed prosper when they complained. One old gentleman from Wales shouted in an unmistakable accent, MT. Town send. MT. Townsend, I have been robbed of my gold watch and purse, containing all my money. What am I to do? What am to do to get home? have come two hundred miles to see this sight, and instead of receiving sat isfaction or hospitality, I am robbed by those cutthroats." Whereup6n the crowd, who had listened to this eloquent complaint, burst into thousand ironic rendering of Home Sweet Home" Stung by jibes, and by actual ill-treat- ment, the poor Welshman passed out of the crowd, and out of history. There were no police in those days, and how coronations were conducted without them may be dimly seen in this incl dent,-London Chronicle.
