tailed Grants Booth Per-
mission to Wear
Uniform.

LONDON, Aug. s.-The eve Of the
coronation Of King Edward VII. was
marked in London by large crowds
which wandered through ;he streets.
The brilliancy Of the illumination
held the visitors TO the city 30 SPELL
bound that vehicle traffic became rnore
and more difficult as the night wore
on.
Until very late hour the stand
.speculators did thriving business.
Many thousand who walked through
the streets exhibited unmistakable
signs Of their intention TO stay up all
night in hope OF securing a free coign
.of vantage from which to view the
procession.
King Edward passed uusy day at
Buckingham Palace and did not ap-
pear TO the public At late hour to-
night he was reported ms feeling quite
strong and looking forward to the
ceremony without the slightest mis-
giving.
Acting upon medical advice Lord
Salisbury had obtained the kings per-
mission TO absent himself from the
ceremony.
One OF the most curious incident OF
the coronation will be the appearance
Of the uniform Of the Salvation Army
in the Westminster Abbey, Bramwell
Booth has been appointed to attend
the ceremony, Booth wrote to King
Edward requesting permission to wear
the uniform of the Army. This per-
mission his majesty readily gave.
The exodus of the society people
from London has caused many vacan-
cies among the allotted seats in the
abbey. These have been given to of
ficials OF the governmental depart
ments. The crowds already line the
whole route of the procession. which
has been closed by police to wheel
traffic.
Troops are marching and taking up
positions.
There was an unusual celebration on
the stock exchange before the closing
hour this evening. An orchestra had
been stationed in the balcony. All the
electric lights were turned on and the
orchestra played the national anthems,
which all members of the exchange
joined in singing.

NO PUBLIC EXHIBITION.

SALEM. Aug. S.-When u was heard
that the body of the convict murderer
Tracy was to be brought 10 Salem, nu-
merous demands were made upon the
state officials to allow it to be brought
down town and placed IN one of the
morgues. where such persons as n ighk
wish to do so ,ouId view 1t.
There was an inclination on the spur
of the moment to accede to the re-
guest But upon mature consideration
the idea became repugnant to Cover
nor Geer and superintendent Lee, and
lit was determined that no public ex-
.hibition Of Tracy's body should be al
lowed. This determination was gladly
welcomed by large portion OF the
population, OF the city. who felt that 1T
would be a mistake. to say the least,
to satisfy the morbid curiosity which
would seek to be gratified by such
grewsome and loathsome sight as the
corpse of human wretch 30 stained
With blood Of innocent humanity that
God would not allow any other hu-
man hand to be soiled by his death.

TRAFFIC AGREEMENT ACCEPTED

CHICAGO, Aug. S.--The Daily News
ANNOUNCES that by what is known as
the traffic agreement" a close alli-
ance has been entered into between the
Milwaukee, and st. Paul railway and
the Missouri Pacific system, one rep
resenting the Rockefeller interests and
the other the great Southwestern rail-
way Of the Goulds. By the alliance
the former company will secure a
direct line to Salt Lake City and the
Missouri Pacific will gain the direct
entrance into Chicago. 1t is under
stood that the traffic agreement" is
entered into rather than the direct
consolidation for fear of the Interrupt
ton similar to that experienced by the
Northern Security Company.

NAVAJO INDIANS IN NEED.

DURANGO, Col. Aug. S.-The Nav
ajo Indians have never heen in such
misery as now since 1868, when Kit
Carson had them rounded up in COR
raj at Defiance, The extreme heat and
drouth in the Navajo country have
ruined the ranges, and ponies, cattle
and sheep and goats are starving by
scores daily. The Indians have had
little else than horse meat to eat for
some time. and unless the govern
ment will come to their aid, they must
starve during the coming winter, as
they will be thrown upon their blan-
ket industry alone. and this has never
been done much for their subsistence.

The Sense of Feeling.

Some of our most important organs
for instance. the heart. the brain and
the lungS-arc. strange to say, quite
insenSible to touch, thus showing that
not only are nerves necessary for the
sensation. but also the special end or
gans. The curious fact was noticed
with the greatest establishment by
Harvey, who. while treating a patient
for an ahsccss that caused large
cavity in his side, found that when he
put his fingers into the cavity he could
actually take hold of the heart without
the patient being in the least aware Of
what he WAS doing. This so interested
Harvey that he brought King Charles
|. to the mans bedside that 'he might
himself behold and touch so eXtraor-
binary a thing"
In certain operations piece of skin
is removed from the forehead to the
nose, and it is stated that the patient,
oddly enough. feels as if the new
nasal part were still in his forehead
and may have headache in his nose.
