senatorial Meeting at Benurttsvilie on the
23d Attracts Gond Crowd.

The senatorial stone, contrary to
the old adage, gathers moss as it
rolls. The best meeting of the cam
paign to date WAS held in the court
house here today, County Chairman
Mccall presiding. Prayer was said
by Rev. Rufus Ford. The weather
WAS cool and pleasant. There WAS
the largest crowd which has yet at
tended, there being about 500 pres
ent, with standing room in demand.
Some ladies attended.
The crowd was in good humor
and the candidates in good condition.
They referred to tho splendid crops,
the excellent conditions and tho beau.
tiful ladies of Marlboro. The audi
ence was intelligent and attentively
applauded the speakers.
Sympathy was liborally divided
among the candidates.
The speeches were along the samo
lines as before. The oleomargerine
laws were the subject of discussion be :
tween Hemphill, Evans and Latimer.
HemphilI opposed the tax as an effort
to prevent the South from Legitimate

day. That the coronation will be
long delayed if it takes place at all,
is indicated by the fact that the

continued.
London, Juue 24.-Midnight.-
The king continues in a stupor. The
first rumor of his death at 10 O'Clock
caused wild excitement. The troops
were ordered under arms at Yelling
ton and st. Georges barracks to
help the police. The queen and
royal family and premier are wait.
ing in adjoining apartments for the
crisis. The doctors expect the crisis
in the early morning hours.
London, June 25.--One O'Clock,
an official bulletin signed by all the
physicians says: The king is rest
ing as we'll as expected. He has
partaken Of small amount of nour.
ishment. His strength is..maintained
and he is in less pain. 1t will be
SONS days before it is possible to say
he is out of danger.
LATEST BULLETIN HOPEFUL.
London, June 25.-2 o'clock-No
further news from the bedside of the
king. An unofficial announcement
from the physicians says the crisis
criss will not occur today. The
queen is broken down over the ter
rible etrain.

"AA' oe iihe"ise PoatPOned, put 1t Is
the kings earnest hope that the cele-
bratlons in the country shall be held
as already arranged"
| The king also expresses to the lord
mayor his desire that his majesty's
dinner to the poor of London be not
postponed.
Nothing has yet been decided re.
garding the movements of the foreign
guests. The first intimation which
Whitelaw Reid, the special ambaa
sador of the United States to the cor.
onation, heard that anything WAS
wrong was contained in communi-
cation canceling the banquet of
state which was to be held at
! Buckingham palace.
1t is privately admitted that his
majesty's condition is more serious
than represented by the medical bul-
letin.
Outside of Buckingham palace
enormous throngs Of people congre-
gated since early morning for the
purpose of witnessing the arrival of
the special ambassadors who we're to
be received by the king and queen
today.
Large numbers Of foreign repre-
sentatives actually arrived, but the
shortness of their stay WAS noted, in
| quiries were made and soon the
news of his majesty's serious state of
health was circulated among the
awaiting thousands.
At the various palaces and hotels,
where the foreign representatives are
staying, the news created the greatest
dismay.
Royal carriages were already
drawn up in readiness to take the
guests to the reception at the palace,
but the moment the "tickers" an
nounced his majesty's illness, all the
preparations for the day ceased.
On the streets the change which
came over the crowds was most pro-
nounoed. Traffic seemed paralyzed
and it was long before the full effect
Of the startling intelligence was
felt.
The street, rs the day wore on,
became more and more congested,
and the holiday crowd concentrated
into groups reading and re-. reading
the extras. Most OF the people
seemingly felt dazad and scarcely ap
preciated the full import of what
they read.
Work on the stands erected on all
sides to enable people to lew the
coronation procession was fradually
discontinued.
The lord mayor has instructed the
| workmen to demolish the stands in
front of the mansion house. Those
at Piccadily will be taken down to.

AFTER THE OPERATION.

London, June 24.-An operation
WAS performed on the king this after
noon by Sir Frederick TreveH, the
eminent specialtist in appendicitis.
The operation was successfully por.
formed and a large abcess evacuated.
The king bore the shock we'll.
There WAS an unusually large at
tendance at the house of commons
this afternoon when the official an.
nouncement Of the condition of the
king was made. The government
leaders decided not to adjourn par
lament as it is believed that such
action would create panic in the
minds Of the public. The Marquis
Of Salisbury announced IN the house
of lords that there was every pros
pect of a favorable issue from tho
operation.
London, June ID, 2:5 p. m.-The
operation was performed success-
fully. His majesty did not lose con-
aciousness while being operated upon
and is now asleep.
London, June "a, 3:30p. m.-The
king is progressing favorably.
Should the operation prove success
full, and those close to affairs in
Buckingham palace say his majesty
is worse than the public know, the
recovery Of his majesty must be
necessarily slow. Perityphlitis is an
ailment similar to appendicitis in
that it affects the boz els but is a
more serious operation, owing to the
adAanced age of the king. Previous
medical reports concerning the con.
dition of the king have been 30 mis-
leading that little oredence is placed

EyangciiIing the karens.

II any one picks up 800 Thah.' by the
Rev. Dr. Alonzo Bunker (Fleming H. Revell

going to read a story he will suffer a great
and melancholy disappointment. There is
no story about 1t; it's all true. except some

and this book is the history Of his con-
version to Christianity and his subsequent
courageous labors in spreading the glad
tidings among his fellows.
II Is not possible to discuss this book as
book at all. II is not a work of literat ure
far from it-but just simple religious
document People who desire to know
about the karens and their evangelization
will be able to satisfy themselves by r, aiding
this book They will find in IL much infor-
nation set forth not only without literary
skill. but with childish awkwardness and
frequently in downright bad English. But
in spite Of its faults the volume will interest
pious readers because of the pure and
infantile faith which il discloses DR.
Bunker is not a worldly wise Christian,
and he writes naively sometimes But he
is undoubtedly a good man and has done
good work in Burma. His book will be well
placed in Sunday school libraries.

padia with the chief merits of the German

statements under the heads one would natur-

New International Encyclopedia, running
from A through Canada have come TO Us
from Dodd. Mead d 60. The editors are
Dr. Daniel Colt Gilman. late President of
the Johns Hopkins University, Prof. Harry
Thurston Peck Of Columbia. and Prof
Frank Moore Colby Of the University OF the
City of New York. They have been catholic
in the choice Of sub jects and give the needed
help in line or two on many little things
that most of the books pass overs The longer
and more important articles are concise
but contain full information brought to
date. The biographical notices of living
persons are well selected and plentiful
There are many cross references and often
repetition OF matter that saves the trouble
of looking for 1t in another place.
The work Is very fully illustrated. The
pictures in the text cannot he praised too
highly. They are simple, clear and do
explain. For the large black and white
pictures. there is the excuse that OF her
works Of this class offer them They add
to the weight of pretty heavy volumes,
and are Of a rather popular chara cter
