King Reyiews Colonial Troops.

London, August l2.-Two thousand
Colonial troops here to attend the cor
onaton, including the Canadian con
tingent, were reviewed by King Edward
this afternoon on the grounds of Bucking
ham Palace.
The King personally fastened the Vic
toria cross upon the breast of Sergeant
Lawrence, the first man in line, after
which he retired to the shade of an awning
and left the distribution of the coronation
medals to the Prince of Wales.
The members Of the royal family were
much amused at the unconyentionality o.
the Colonials, who after they had received
medals seated themselves comfortably or
the grass and smoked as they watched the
decoration of their comrades. When al
had received their medals, the troops ad
vanced and presented arms, while the
massed bands played the national anthem
Tue King stepped forward and delivered
an animated address, which was greeted
with cheers and waving of hats by tht
troops.

A Big Sale.

The Tazeweil Steam Granite and Marble
Works have just closed contract with
Mrs. Jane McGhee, of Pocahontas, to
erect for her IN the cemetery at Pocahon-
tas a family vault containing six cata'
combs The material to be used will be
Virginia granite from Richmond, the best
in the world for that class of work. This
will be the first vault ever built in South
west Virginia, and the fact that the work
has been given to home company, after
strong competition with many competitors,
is a feather in the cap Of the Tazewell
Steam Granite and Marble Works. All the
material will be cut and prepared at their
own plant from granite in the rough.
We understand that the company has
five travelling statesmen, and that they are
building up 6ne patronage in Southwest
Virginia and Southern West Virginia.

CORONATION
CEREMONY

Showed but Few Traces of His
Recent Illness.

London, Aug. 9.-Coronation day wal
ushered in with a royal salute and the
great guns were fred from the tower o.
London and Hyde Park at sunrise. AL
were prepared for the historic service al
Westminster Abbey and the coronation
crowds, especially about the abbey aud
Buckingham Palace, grew rapidly as the
coronation Eour approached. The first
section of the coronation procession, the
trumpeters with silver bugles, left Buck
ingham Palace 1925. The Life Guard
Band led the way and played the national
anthem, followed by eight carriages con-
tanning the royal family and the European
princes of the blood royal. Prince Henry
of Prussia, whose carriage was seventh,
was wildly cheered.
Palpably nervous at the outset, the king
was soon absorbed in the impresslveness
of the ritual. All interest was focused on
the invalid monarch and comparatively
few traces of bis recent illness we're visible.
The ceremony passed without marring
accident. The weather was fine but blus
terry. The rain, which held of during the
coronation ceremonies, began falling as
the king entered Buckingham this after.
noon.
King Edward was crowned in the Abbey
Church of st. Peters at Westminster at
1899 O'Clock and Queen Alexandra was
crowned at 1858. The king and queen,
who brought up the rear of the coronation
procession, left the palace gates at IL
o'clock amidst wild cheering, which their
majesties acknowledged by repeatedly
bowling They were acclaimed by the
people all the way to the Abbey, where
they entered the west door at 11:24 O'Clock
the choir singing. Il was glad when they
said unto me, etc." The head of the pro.
cession reached the Abbey ten minutes
earlier. Bells pealed and bands played
"God save the King" Recognition at the
Abbey was completed shortly after noon,
amounting following. Then came the
crowning. Immediately after the COM
pletion of the ceremonies an official out
side of the Abbey announced the news of
Lbs erowning. 1t was repeted by signals
through London and received with cheers.
The return journey of their msjesties CON-
menced at 1:23. The king bore up
splendidly.
Twenty.six Americans, exclusive of press
correspondents, were present at the
coronation ceremony, including Ambassa-
dor Choate, Mrs. Choate, Gen. Joseph
Wheeler, ten members of the regular
embassy, General Wilson and daughters,
ex-Attorney General Griggs, and others.
Much comment was caused by the abb
sence of ex-Premier Salisbury. He OBJ
tanned the kings permission to be absent
owing to i'll health. Until this morning it
was understood that Lord Salisbury Was in

EXTRA SESSION OF THE SENATE.
President Will Call 1t Soon After the
Fall Election.

Washington, Aug. 12.-Advlces received
here indicate that President Roosevelt will
call the Senate in extraordinary session
early in November
Ever since it became evident that moth
ing would be accomplished as to recipro-
city with Cuba at the recent session Of
Congress, rumors of more or less definite
nature have been in circulation that the
the President would call an extra session,
either of the entire Congress to enact
Cuban reciprocity legislation, or of the
Senate to ratfy, if possible, a reciprocal
treaty with Cuba.
During the past week it has been stated
that it was the purpose OF President
Roosevelt to call special session of the
Senate as early as September. 1t can be
stated by authority that he has no such
intention. His time and that of many
members of the Senate of both political
parties will be completely occupied during
September and October.
1t is understood to be the belief of the
President that a session of the Senate held
for the purpose of ratifyng reciprocity
treaty with Cuba would be much more
likely to be fruitful of results il it is held
after the November elections than if it was
held before. 1t is assured that the Ques.
tons of the relations of the United States
with Cuba will enter largely into the APP
preaching campaign, and it is stated that
the President feels the Democrats will be
likely to offer less serious opposition to p
reciprocity treaty after the election than
they would before that time.
A treaty with Cuba practically has been
prepared. 1t requires only the finishing
touches anG the signatures of Minister
Quesada and Secretary of State Hay to
make it ready for presentation to the
Senate.I
No definite date, it is understood, has
been fixed upon for the meeting of the
session in November, but that it will be
soon efter the election is reasonably GER.
cult. The President, it is said, hopes to
have the reciprocity question cleared away
entirely before the regular session of Con-
gress.

COMING OF MILLENNIUM.
Alleged Prophecy Of an Infant Near
Warsaw in Russia

I'm one years time there will be great
war between the world powers, and ir
three years We will witness the coming o.
the millennium
This startling prophecy, it is declared
was a short time ago made by male child
only three months old, born in small
village near Warsaw, RUSSIA. Mr.. 5. Ber.
lin, Seventh street merchant, recently
received letter from his father in Russia,
relating the incident. According Ia 'he
letter the mother left the home for few
moments and told the seven year-old
daughter to look after the babe.
For some reason the little girl became
frightened and began to cry, when, accor-
ding to the letter, she was startled to hear
the three.months.old baby address her
plainly with tue words: "Don't cry;
mamma will be back soon." This unex-
pected speech from such source scared the
girl still more, and she ran ont ofthe house
in search of her mother, to whom she re-
lated the incident The mother immedi-
ately went in to the baby and began ques-
tioning him, and finally the boy spoke
again and said: "Send for the rabbi"
The rabbi was Immediately called and
several of the neighbors who had noticed
the excited stats of affairs about the house
also dropped in to ascertain the cause of
the commotion. When the rabbi entered
the room where sat the prodigy the baby
refused to speak until he and the rabbi
were left alone, and when the room had
been cleared, it is said, he gave utterance
to the prophecy mentioned previously.
A few days after Mr.. Berlin received his
letter with the story of the wonderful child
another gentleman in Washington received
letter from a different party, relating the
same incident as that told in the first
letter. 1t is said that the prediction has
created great CONSERVATION among the
Jews of Russia, as, naturally, it was calcu-
lated to do.
Several Hebrews told reporter for The
Star that, according to the Torah, the
millennium is due in about three or four
years, and that they seemed much inn
pressed by the reports that have come
from Russia They consider this prophecy
as a verifc, ton or reminder of the ap.
preaching reign Of the Jews. The destruc
ton of the Mahometan and anti. Christian
kingdoms and the restoration of the seed
of Abraham to the favor of God, they say,
are all that is necessary to the introduc.
ton of Observation-Disclosures the Star.
