How cenrict. Kim Tine.

It is at once interesting and pathetic to go through the cells of the eastern penitentiary and to note the objects which, with tedious pains, the prison CTS have made to while the time away. Here a mantel will be hung with a lambrequin elaborately fringed, the fine knots and delicate patterns of the threads comparing with the work of the French lacemakers. The lambre. Quin is of an odd blue hue. and the vis- itor is told that 1t is made of an old pair of prison trousers.
 On a little gilt bracket is a small stuffed animal. The bracket, so deli cately turned, Is of newspapers pasted together and gilded, and the animal Is a rat. caught in a homemade trap. stuffed with rags and with pieces of chewing gum colored with shoeblack- ing for its eyes.
 A wall Is completely covered with a really artistic decoration of reeds, on which are perched at least 200 birds. each accurately colored and drawn. There are also numberless checker boards and sets of chessmen that in the delicncy of their inlay work and in the intricacy of their carving would do honor to the craftsmen of the orient Philadelphia Record

Many Hurt .t eate.xo Fire.

More than a score of persons were in- jured, five of them fatally, in an acci- dent during fire which destroyed the lard refinery of Armour X Co, in the Union stockyards, Chicago, on Friday night, causing loss of nearly $1 .0O0.- 900. The fire was one of the most spec tacular that has been seen in Chicago in recent years. and the display attract ed an enormous crowd of people, who crowded all the narrow streets in the stockyards and swarmed by thousands upon the viaducts which pass through the yards at height of twenty feet from the ground. That portion of the Forty street viaduct close to the burning building was densely packed, and suddenly about POO of 1t gave way. precipitating fully 1000 persons to the ground.

chamber of deputies, and, preceded by the mace bearers, they were conducted through the antechambers. filled with courtiers and others who were unable to find accommodation in the chamber Itself. The king, queen regent and the Prince and Princess of the Asturias ascended a platform specially con structed facing the semicircular gilded hall. around which the benches were filled to their capacity by senators, deputies, courtiers and ministers. The foreign princes and other special en- voys were seated immediately to the right of the platform, which was drap- ed with red. Four gilded armchairs were placed in the front of the plat form beneath a red canopy. The king and queen regent. who had entered to- gether, took the center seatss and the Prince and Princess of the Asturias seated themselves in the others.
 As the royal party entered the hall every one present rose and remained standing until the, queen regent pro nounced the words, Be seated.'
 The president of the chamber, Senor Vega ArmiJo. who approached table on which the Bible rested, then said amid impressive silence:
 "Senor. the cortes. convoked by your august mother, is assembled to receive from your majesty the oath which, in accordance with the constitution, you come to take to maintain the constitu- ton and laws"
 Garn, Ar,.,tf1 thn,a draxxy ,saaw f,, fl,a king and held out the Bible, at the same time keeping open n book con taining the formula of the oath. His majesty, placing his right hand on the Bible, then uttered the following words:
 'I swear by God, upon the holy Bl- ble, to maintain the constitution and avs. If so do, may God rewnrd me; f do not, may he call me Co account"
 The queen regent, the royal party and all others present listened to the fore. going standing. King Alfonso then again seated himself on the throne, and the others also reseated themselves.

 King Alfonso was met at the portal of the church by the primate of Spain and the cardinal archbishop of Santia- go de Compostela, Jose Maria Martin ie Herrera de la Iglesia, and twenty bishops, all in the magnificent robes which are only worn on great occa- sions. Eight priests bore a canopy over the king as he advanced up the eentral nave and took his seat on a throne placed beside a crimson velvet covered altar specially erected fin front of the great altar. A "Te Deum" was then chanted, accompanied by grand orchestra.

Loud Reports Heard and Fiery
 Clouds Seen at Dominica
 St. Thomas, Danish West Indies, May 21-It has been reported here from St. kitts, in the Leeward group, that Mon day night and yesterday morning noises similar to those heard May 8 were again audible, but louder and with greater distinctness. Some of the houses were slightly shaken by the concussion. .s..
 From the British island of Antigua and the French island of Guadeloupe very loud detonations from the south east are reported.
 Another report which has reached here from the British island of Do- minica Is to the effect that at 5:30 o'clock in the morning curious. awe inspiring, fiery cloud, surmounted by a fleccy white cap resembling highly pol ished silver, was seen from Roseau, on the west coast of Dominica, in the southeast. This phenomenon caused alarm in Dominica, especially as light ming followed in its wake.
 Still another report which has reach ed here from Castries, St. Lucia, says further serious eruption of Mont Pe- lee was reported at Castries May 19, and the search parties which were in St. Pierre that day had promptly to quit the town. The British cruiser h. defatigable and the United States steamer Potomac were forced hurried ly to leave the port of St. Pierre.
 A report has reached here from the British island of Dominica that refu- gee from Martinique arrived there at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon who says that the eruption of Mont Pelee continued all day Monday and Mon- day night. The volume of lava emit ted, according to this mans account, was greater than that thrown up on the morning of May s. Bridges that had withstood the first eruption were carried away, floating on top of the stream of lava which overhowed the Grabde riviere, literally moving down buildings in it's course. The damage is estimated at $250,0O0.
 The authorities had promised to re- move the people from the Grande IT, yiere, but help had not been sent, and all local means of transportation have now been destroyed.
 The refugee who brings these state laents is trying to secure means for the rescue of women and children whom he had left in the greatest de- spair and helplessness.

Simple and Brief hut Impressive
 Ceremonies Mark the Transfer Of
 Authority From the United States
 to senOr Palma and His Associates.
 Havana, May 21.--With ceremonies which occupied a brief ten minutes Cuba came into peaceable and undis- puted possession of the independence for which her people have fought and toiled for fifty years and entered the ranks of sovereign states. In the his toric room in the palace of Spain's gov ernor generals in which the departing Spaniards relinquished control of the island on Jan. l, 1899, the representa- tives of the United States government surrendered the trust then assumed, and Tomas Estrada Palma, first presi- dent of the Cuban republic, took up his task of government.
 The transfer was the occasion of an outburst of popular enthusiasm with out precedent in the history of the island. The downfall of Spain and the coming of the Americans were cause for public rejoicings. but these were moderated by fear that the change. while it might work for Cuba's good,
