CORONATION AND INAUGURATION.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM
By Senator cHAUNcEY M. DzpEw.

While III London I studied the lit
urgy and ceremony of the coronation.
The first thought which struck me was
the enormous advance and separation
IN about 135 years of America from
Great Britain on the subject of SOW
ereignty. The coronation ceremony
IS a religious one, with all the pomp,
pageantry, and splendor of its fuedal
origin. 1t Is IN It's most solemn form
a recognition of the unity of the
church and state and Of the coneen-
tration Of the headship of the church
and sovereignty of the empire IN tho
king,
The king swears to maintain tho
church and It's relations with the
state; the church in It's homage Of
fers to the king its services and its
lands, recognizing him as its head ;
the royal family pledge to the king
their lands, their limbs, and their
lives; the nobility do homage. offer
ing also at his behest their lands, their
limbs. and their lives. Without dis
senting voice there Is a recognition
that all the Liberties of the pres or
people have only been such as have
been given or surrendered by the
crown, and that all other sovereignty
rot so delivered still remains intact IL
the throne. No Englishman disputes
this; no subject Of the British crown

races, tongues, and peoples, but &C
knowledges 1t.
One hundred and thirty-fve years
ago, ten years before 1776, Washing
ton and every signer Of the Declare
ton Of Independence would have cor
daily assented to the doctrine shat
the sovereignty Of the nation was IN
the throne. in the United STATES all
that Is now absolutely reversed. Il

The children Of the tenement house

lack OF ice, or even ali the year around,

well-known specialist In women's dis

children examined by him who had been
fed exclusively on condensed milk or
proprietary foods, he had never seen

months did not show signs of malnutri-

ENDURANCE

How much the heart may bear, and yet net break!
How much the flesh may suIer, and not dieI
question much if any pain ache
Of soul or body brings our end more nigh;
Death chooses his own time; tin that is sworn,
All evils may be borne
We shrink and shudder at the surgeons knife.
Each nerve recoiling from the cruel steel,
Whose edge seems searching for the quiveTing Iife
Yet to cur sense the bitter pangs reveal,
That still, although the trembling flesh be torn,
This also can be borne.
We see sorrow rising in our way,
And try to fee from the approaching IL;
We seek some small escape we weep and pray;
But when the blow falls then our hearts are still;
Net that the pain is of its sharpness shorn,
But that it can be borne.
We wind our life about another life;
We hold it closer, dearer than our own;
Anon it faints and falls in deathly strife,
Leaving US stunned and stricken and alone;
But all we do not die with those we mourn
This also be borne.
Beholdwe live through all things-famine, thirst,
Bereavement, pain; all grief and misery,
All ard SORROW; life inficts its worst
On soul and body-aut we cannot die,
Though we be sick, and tired, and faint, worn
To, all things can be bornel

SCHLEY IN NASHVILLE,

Ovation to Admiral In Spite of Incle.
ment Weather.
Nashville, Feb. 1.-The inclement
weather necessitated an abandonment
OF the parade this morning in honor
OF Admiral SchIey, but the admiral and
Mrs. Schley were escorted to the cap.
itol by detachment of Confederate
Veterans, state militia and knights
Templar.
The streets along the route were
crowded with people and the greeting
accorded Admiral Schley was perhaps
the warmest he has received. 1t is
estimated that 10000 sought entrance
to the house of representatives where
the formal welcoming to the city was
extended, and the crush on Capitol
hill was the greatest known.
The exercises at the statehouse
were begun shortly before noon.

GREAT COLONIZATION
SCHEME UNDER WAY
Millions of Fertile Acres to
Be Developed.
BIG PLAN OF WESTERN ROADS

One Thousand immigrant Agents VIII
Be Sent into the Middle and Eastern
States to Induce Emigration to Cali.
fornia, Texas and Louisiana.
Chicago, Feb. l.--Omcials OF the
traffic departments Of the Southern
Pacific, Union Pacific and their allied
lines are meeting here with view
to perfecting the largest colonization
plan ever attempted by western roads.
1t is the purpose Of the men con-
trolling the Hartman lines to provide
occupants for millions of acres of fer
tile and unoccupied. lands in southern
California, Texas and western Louisi-
ana. The general plan will be to send
into the middle ard eastern states,
and probably into some of the north
west states, fully 1000 immigrant or
colonization agents. whose duty it
shall be to induce immigration to the
territories mentioned.
The officials who are arranging the
details of the plan are j. G.. Stubbs,
traffic director for the Hartman lines;
General Passenger Agent LomaX, of
the Union Pacific; S. F. B. Morse, as
sistant traffic manager of the Texas
lines of the Southern Pacific, and B.
Campbell, traffic manager for the Ore
gon Railroad and Navigation company.
In the southwest" said Mr.. Morse,
"we have over 100000 acres of fer
tile land which would make good
homes for Industrious people. We be-
lieve that no section of the United
States has more brilliant future than
Texas and western Louisiana, and we
are convinced that all that is necessary
is to let the public know what we have
got"
It is announced that within a short
time every one of the 1000 or more
agents will be at work throughout the
states east of the Mississippi river.
From time to time homeseekers' ex-
cursions will be run to the territories
mentioned, and special inducements
will be offered to get the public to
visit the southwest and southern Cali
fornia.
