in the court room. The judge con-
scented, and after a conference lasting
al hour, the judge announced that the

KING TO RETURN
TO LONDON TODAY
Reports That His Majesty Is to
Be Operated on Again Denied.
CEREMONIES ARE REHEARSED
TO DRIVE TO BUCKINGHAM
PALACE BY EXTENDED ROUTE.

7 ONDON, Aug. 5.-AlI preparations
have been completed for the re-
turn of King Edward TO London
tomorrow. The Victoria station has
been brilliantly decorated. 1t is ex-
pected that his majesty's return TO the
capital will be marked by a great street
demonstration en- route to buckingham
palace. The trip to London will be
made on a royal special train, but
there viii be no invalid chair or other
special arrangement, as it is felt that
his majesty is fully equal to the IA
tigue of the journey.
A story afioat for several days that
second operation for appendicitis
will be performed on the king after the
coronation, is denied here.
Accordingly all authoritative reports
the king is making excellent recovery,
and 1t is considered unlikely that his
physicians would allow him to endure
the fatigue of the coronation ceFemo-
MES If another operation was impend-
ing.
The emphatical denials of the rumors
OF King Edwards bad condition are
confirmed by all persons who have re-
Gently visited his majesty.
The king will land at Portsmouth and
enter the train for London at 3:3G
o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and his
train is due to arrive in London al
half-past 3.
To Drive Through Streets.
His drive to Buckingham palace Will
be an extended route instead of the
direct way, in order that the public
may have an opportunity to see and
congratulate the sovereign.
The king has commanded that corona
ton day and the anniversary OF his coro-
nation be observed as collar day, day OF
ceremony at the English court, when the
courtters wear the collars of their orders
On account. of the approaching corona
ton most OF the volunteers are at present
undergoing their annual training at Sails
bury. 1t has been decided that they are
to leave their camp Aug. instead OF
Aug. 2.
The rehearsal of the coronation cere-
mony In Westminster abbey this after
noon was the most largely attended and
elaborate one which has yet been held
The king and the queen and other prom
inent perSonages who were not present
were represented at the proceedings by
substitutes. Even the servants were
drilled in their duties connected with the
robing arrangements and the pages car
ried out theoretically their functions OF
coronet carrying and train bearing
Although the religious and musical fea-
lures of the ceremonies were omitted this
afternoon, the instructions and repetitions
by those who are not perfect in their
parts caused the rehearsal to occupy
about the fun time planned for Satur-
DAYS ceremonies

The Home Dairy.

The tendency to return once more to
home dairying, instead of selling milk
and cream to large separator companies,
appears to be the result of recent inven-
ton aud perfection Of small separators
operated by hand. it is possible with
these for the farmer and dairyman to
handle his own product, make his own
butter as formerly, aud sell it to the
market he considers best. 1t is also
tending to increase the size OF the aver
age dairy. With . hand separator the
farmer can handle more cream and but
ter Than he could when be depended
entirely upon old-fashioned dairy meth
DDS. 1t may be that the large co-opera-
tive farmers creameries will not be
greatly affected one way or the other by
this, as the supply of milk and cream
is steadily increasing all over the coun.
try but certainly it will make change
on the small farms and dAiries. The
question which must be considered of
the most Importance is whether the
farmer operating at home can keep up
the quality of his butter, or will it de.
generate and sell so much below the
regular creamery butter that it will not
be profitable to make it A good deal
Of the butter which comes to market il
so inferior in quality that it rarely brings
much more than one-half or two-thirds
the price paid for best creamery This
is due to inferior methods used and to
the fact that old fashioned dairy butter
making cannot produce as finished a
product as the modern creameries II
is possible for the small dairymau to
make almost as good butter with the
small hand separators as that produced
by the large cresmeries, but to do this
he must observe the close rules and
regulations enforced by the managers
of the latter. Any laxity on their part
will bring deterioration 10 the qualit q.
The butter thus made il not held too
long, should then command a fair rating
in the market The old fault of the
home dairymsn was that be held his
butter and cream too long II be per-
siSts in doing this he will not succeed
under the new methods There must
be regular weekly shipments, even if it
is necessary to increase the herd TO make
it worth while &C L. Pardee, in Amer

Silage cut short will pack closer and
consequently occupy less space than the
longer cutting More time will be re-
quircd for cutting, hence it is probably
more satisfactory to cut it in half or

Abroad their promises of spring,
Then father to the garden goes
And rakes and digs and plants and hoes.
When he has placed beneath the loan 81
About his glad suburban home
Lettuce and beans and trailing vine
And proudly says, "All this is mine"
And joyous hears the breakfast bell
And feels his bosom proudly swell,
What sounds portentous on the breeze
Cause his slow curdling blood to freeze?
There, cackling singly or together,
With feet steel shod and lungs of leather,
The neighbors soul destroying hens
Have flown their fragile makeshft pensi
The big white rooster proudly leads!
The air is full of garden seeds!
The old hen lifts with rapid scoops
Earth, stumps, sod. gravel and the roots

And left to grow in comfort there

Instead of clubbing every hen
He plants. the garden once again.

Eagerness With Which the Natives
Seek Education.
Hon. W. Leon Pepperman, member
of the Philippine civil service commits
sion, who recently arrived at Washing
ton ION leave Of absence from Manila,
said the other day to a reporter of the
Washington Post, '"The scope of the
commission has been extended gradu-
ally until it now covers 5000 positions
ranging in salary from $15 per month
to $500 per year.
Mr.. Pepperman added that the imme-
date appointment to successful appI
cants has caused a change in the old
classical system of education under the
Spanish regime to one Of more modern
character based largely on practical
business lines. So great is the interest
Of the Fflipinos in acquiring a knowl-
edge Of English that 10000 adults are
going to night school in Manila Re
fore the American occupation type
writer's were almost unknown in the
Philippines, but now at every exani-
nation held by the commission appli-
cants are qualifying in typewriting
and stenography. Of the 5000 posi-
tons mentioned 400 are held by ma
tives, the remainder by Americans.
The policy Of the commission, Mr.. Pep
perman says, has been to replace the
Americans by Filipinos as rapidly as
possible.
'Under Spanish rule" he continued,
women were. unheard Of in the gov
eminent service. But just before I left
Manila three Filipino young ladies had
passed successful examinations and
had been given good positions. The
Filipino makes a splendid clerk.
Shortly before coming to America
made tour of the principal provinces
for the purpose of conducting examina-
sti0ns It was surprising how much
good material was discovered, consid.
ering the fact that the education of the
islands is centered in Manila. Enough
competent men were found 20 fill ali

Frank H. Robertson Of Walden, N. Y,
who spent TWO days in the ruins Of st.
Pierre and who on the occasion of the
third eruption of Mont Pelee had to
run into the ocean to save his life, was
at the Union depot in Kansas City the

accompanied by several American sci

directly to Kansas City, stopping day
and a night in Chicago.

date set for the mans execution, but
read of his crime and sentence from
the files of the newspapers in Fort de

'I was present when rescuers dug
the poor fellow out Of the dungeon.
He was very weak and pale from lack
of nourishment and when brought to
the surface, where the sun was shin

He seemed to be perfectly rational az
first, and there was under the scared
and hunted expression on his face
something intelligent looking. He
looked at those about him and did not
speak for some minutes. Finally he
said, speaking in French:
Say, am | not in hell?
