ALICE TO STAY AT HOME.
President Roosevelt Decides That
His Daughter Shall Not Attend
Edwards Coronation.

Washington, March S.-Miss Alice
Roosevelt, daughter of the president,
will not attend the coronation of King
Edward. While the white house of
ficials decline to discuss the matter,
it was stated by those in position to
know that the president had decided
that she should not go.
1t is learned that the reason why
Miss Roosevelt will not attend the cor
onation of King Edward VII. is be-
cause it has been found practically i'm
possible for her to go simply as
young American girl travelling private
ly in the household of special Ambas-
sador Reid. Notwithstanding it was
stated she would not go to London as
daughter of the president, but simply
as Miss Roosevelt, it was learned that
London court circles were considering
seriously the question of the status
she would occupy in all coronation
functions. When Miss Roosevelt's
status became matter of internation-
al discussion, the president first con-
sidered the advisability of canceling
the visit, but not until it was found
that an invitation to visit the en-
peror and empress of Germany was on
the way to America was it decided that
in view of the extreme youth of Miss
Roosevelt and the international condi-
tions as well as courtesies she would
be called on to meet, the English visit
and all its delights would have to be
relinuuished.

Wrecked on Curve.
The Inflated train left San Antonio
at noon Thursday, 2h hours late, and
at the time the accident occurred was
running at high rate of speed in or
der to make up time. The road at the
point where the wreck occurred is in
rough country, the curves being sharp
and the grades heavy. 1t was when
rounding a curve that the train left
the track, it is said, on account of a
broken rail. The hour was three a. M,
Is hours after the train had left San

hind time. All the passengers were
asleep and the shock that followed
was the first intimation they had of
the danger.

speed that the tender and engine land
ed Is feet from where they left the
rails. The cars behind piled up against
the engine, caught fire and all were

gether against the engine and were

flames.

quarters relief train with surgeons
and physicians were started from Ell

Are Many Deserters.


Il am told" said a prominent man
in town one day this week, that the
men on the battleships that come to
the Sound are deserting at a terrific
rate. For example, three weeks ago
it is claimed that twenty-five of the
men deserted from the Oregon, and
a week later fifteen deserted from the
same ship, and last week ten more
deserted, thus making fifty men in
three weeks time as having deserted
the ship, which, if continued at the
same rate, will soon completely un-
man the battleship Just why the men
desert the battleships is not fully ex-
planned, unless it be that the officers
in charge assume the brute role to-
ward the men and drive them to desert
their country's flag. If this be true,
then the authorities at Washington
City should put some Of them under
cOurt-martial for extreme cruelty to
the men. Of course, it would break up
the efficiency of the army and the navy
if the men were allowed to talk back
to the officers in charge, but nothing
would serve as a better preventive
against the perpetration of such bru-
tality on the part of the officers to-
ward the men than for the men to
take shot at such officers, and be
sure they did not miss their mark
when they took such a shot.

gressional nomination In the first
place they would thereby incur enmi-
ties which would be serious to them,
and it would be an enmity which the
people might say was justified. Fur
ther, the fact that Seattle was given
a congressman might not be a serious
handicap to Mr.. Preston, for if the state
thought it not desirable to have both
a senator and congressman from the
same city it would be remembered that
it would only be two years before
there would be an opportunity for
some other part of the state to ask for
and probably secure the congressman,
while the senator is elected for six
years. And it will not be forgotten
that Tacoma now has both a senator
and congressman, and no one be-
lieves that there would be anything
seriously amiss if Seattle was given
as much. It is for these reasons that
there is a belief that Seattle will be
given a congressman if she asks for
it. At least, this is the way it looks
at long range.
