prayer to the Almighty for blessing on

Press Comment
The London morning papers refer
editorially to the dark shadow which
has fallen over the nation, and to
its utterly unprecedented character.
While they strive to maintain an air
of hopefulness. they have difficulty in
concealing their anxiety at the danger
which will hang over the kings life for
some days to come. They exhprt the
public to abandon all idea Of festtvity
and to return soberly and prayerfulay
to the duties of everyday existence, as
most beftting the dignity Of the ma
ton.
Utmost CONSERVATION Caused,
london, June 25.-The sudden an
noupcement of the postponement OF
the coronation, just on the eve Of the
ceremony, caused the utmost con
sternation everywhere. The news
spread like wild-fire. The tens of
thousands of occupants of the streets
suddenly stood still under the sudden
shock and gazed at one another in
silent dread Of what might come next.
On Saturday and Sunday society was
discussing the reports of the kings iil- |
ness and though the circumstantial
ity, detail and sources from which |
they came precluded entirely disbelief |
there was disposition to doubt the |
stories, and when the positive cate
gorical denial rs officially issued
they were disln1s as being unfound-
ed. Haemorrhoids apoplexy and 1uHa-
bago, were few of the kings mala-
dies discussed in the clubs and, draw

recalled the stories how the king
even quite recently reiterated his be-
lief that he would never be crowned.

Scientists claim that the exercise neces-

together with its noise, tend to injure
health and cause nervousness. A German

noise and much of the labor. It's adoption
may be one way of preserving health and
preventing nervousness but there is a
better and less expensive way, and that
is by using Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.

The incidents at the Ohio Republican
convention indicate very clearly that
there is a strong determination in certain
quarters that Mark Hanna shall become
the Republican candidate for president
in 1904. Some of the Republican papers
that are not friendly to Mr.. Hanna lay
great emphasis on the fact hat the con-
vention in it's platform Endorsed the ad
ministration of Mr.. Roosevelt. There is
no significance whatever of this fact. The
convention did not dare to adjourn with
out indorsing the national administration;
but the fact remains that there was a
very strong sentiment for Mr.. Hanna's
nomination in 1904; and every man who
gives intelligent observation to the pol
itical situation must understand that,
judging from the situation of today, the
contest for the Republican nomination of
1904 viii be between Theodore Roosevelt
and Mark Hanna; and it Is not too much
to say that despite the prejudice and the
predictions of Senator Foraker, Ohio
will take the lead in the Hanna boom

strike had been made on Gold mountain,
six miles south of Tonopah. The average
of six assays disclosed values amounting

The dispatch states that the strike was
