London. -
London, Aug. 19.-The shah of Per-
STA, Muzaffar-ed-din, and his suite
reached London during the day and
took up their residence at Marlbor.
ough House as guests of King Edward.
In accordance with the Persian mon
arch's express wish the train from Do
yer only travelled twenty miles an
hour. He therefore had plenty of time
to array himself in full state uniform
and when he left the train at Victoria
station he was Respondent in blaze
of diamonds. On his tarboosh (cap) a
huge diamond stood out like head
light his epaulettes were adorned with
large emeralds and his breast was Gov
cred with jewels of all kinds. The
gems worn by the members of the
shah's suite were only little less rich
than those of his majesty. The Prince
of Wales, Lord Lansdowne, the for
eign minister; Lord Roberts, the com
mander-in- chief, and the members OF
the Persian legation and others met
the royal traveller at the station. The
Prince of Wales and the shah shook
hands and the visitor was introduced
to the prominent persons present. The
Prince of Wales subsequently conduct
ed the shah to royal carriage and
they drove off, escorted by detach-
ment of Life Guards and followed by
other carriages. The route to Mari.
borough House was lined with troops.
The weather was miserable so the

That Of Kitchener and Roberts.
southampton, Aug. 18.-Generals
botha, Dewet and Delarey arrived here
during the morning and met with a
sreat reception, both from government
ohcials and the public. =
The Boer generals looked remarka.
Oily well and evidently were much
pleased at the heartiness of the vel.
come accorded them. Soon after land.
ing they boarded the steamship Nj.
geria, where Joseph Chamberlain, the
colonial secretary; Earl Roberts and
General Lord Kitchener greeted them.
They were also introduced to Mrs.
Chamberlain and Lady Roberts with
whom they chatted for some time.
Ofhc1al arrangements had been made
to permit the generals to witness the
naval review, but after a conference
with Abraham Fischer, the former
Boer delegate, who came from The
Hague, it was announced that they in
tended to proceed direct to London in
order to reach Holland as speedily as
possible. The generals go to Holland
to pay their last respects to the mem
DRY of General Lucas Meyer, who died
OF heart disease on Aug. 8.
General Dewet, in conversation here,
confirmed the statement that he and
his companions will visit the United
States before returning to South
Africa.

KING REVIEWS THE FLEET.
Programme of the Coronation Festivi.
ties Complete.

tiCS SOHik'iSlS.
Portsmouth, Aug. 1S-King Edward
completed the programme of the coro-
nation festivities by reviewing the
fleet for the first time since his aeces-
sion. From a spectacular point of
view the assemblage of hundred AMI
odd war vessels in the roadstead Of
Spithead was magnificent show, but
to those looking beneath the brilliant
veneer of paint and polish it was evil
dent that the fighting strength of the
fleet was by-no means formidable.
The lines of ships were thickly dotted
with ineffectives. Among these May
be mentioned the third class cruiser
Calliope, of Apia fame, while others
included such relics as the battleships
Devastation, Dreadnaught, Camper
down and, Edinburgh, which are
classed by some experts as absolutely
dangerous to their crews, while some
of the nominally effective fighters are
still armed with muzzle-loaders. 1t
must be pointed out, however, that
the display represented merely the
home feet, not a single vessel having
been withdrawn from foreign sta.
ton to participate in the pageant.

London, Aug. 1S.-The Boer gener-

the afternoon and were loudly cheered
in the streets. Asked why they haC
declined the governments invitation
to witness the naval review the Wis
itors remarked that they were ''toC
tired after the long war and needed a
rest"
1t is still uncertain whether or not
they will return to Cowes and see the
king.
The scene at the railroad station on
the arrival of the Beers was remarka-

gave them a welcome as hearty as
given to Lord Roberts and Lord Kitch-
ener when they arrived here from
South Africa. Shouts OF Good old
Dewet," Our friends, the enemy"
and Brave soldiers ALL" were fire.
quently heard amidst salvos of cheers.
General Dewet was fairly cornered by
a mob and had to be rescued by the
police who, by sheer force, cleared a
line of retreat for him.

a gale of wind drove the spectators
from the sea front and it was noon in
stead of 10 o'clock when the royal
yacht Victoria and Albert left Cowes
and took King Edward through the
lines of the fleet. Subsequently an ar.
ray of battleships and cruisers, to the
number of nearly eighty, formed in
two columns and passed on either side
of the Victoria and Albert. All the

There is disposition to regard the

schools at Ploudaniel, Folgoet and st.
Meen, the last villages in Brittany
where Unauthorized schools were still
open, is meeting with . determined re-
sistance. The Inhabitants were on
guard throughout the night and the

of the gendarmes and troops was sig
nailed at 9 o'clock il>the morning. At
Ploudaniel, in spite of a heavy fall of
rain, crowd numbering several thou
sand people, replied with boots to tho
summons of the police commissaries.
while the ringing of church and school
bells drowned the voices of the Of
fcials. When an attempt was made to
force the strongly sbarricaded door it
failed, the defenders meanwhile cry
ing Judas" and singing Breton
hymns, mingled with cheers for lib
erty and shouts of down with
Combes." The commissaries tried to
attack the school by the garden wall,
which they ordered the soldiers to
breach. This was done in the midst
of showers of filth and mud from the
defenders, who manned the breach,
armed with clubs, and prevented the
commissaries from penetrating into
the garden. The soldiers attempted to
scale the wall with the aid of a pile
of -fagots, but the defenders deluged
the fagots with petroleum and set them
on fire. whereupon the commissaries
and troops drew off amidst cheers for
liberty and for the sisters.
At St. Mems the sisters were OK
PEELED and the school was closed after
two hours struggle during whish
police commissary was wounded.

girl, depends upon the nature Of the
man. the climate. the weather. the sur
TOundings, the moon, the state of his
mind, and a little bit on the way the
girl treaH him. Sometimes they pro-
pose all Of d sudden, without any
treatment at all beforehand. If the
moon is full and the man is not, the
average man should be expected to
propose within Is days after he has
first met the girl. If he sees her three
times day. for three hours at a time,
he can usually become well acquainted
with her nature and all her little char
acteristics in that time, provided the
girl is simple, as is apt TO be the case.
Few women are complex. 1t isn't
important whether the girl under
stands the mans nature or not. But,
anyway. she can learn it in no time
at all, because all men are alike. They
mostly all are brainy. and can smoke
and love with equal ease. There are
men who say. fieTcely. a. if they were
really desperate: VIII you, or won't
you marry me" That sort of men are
not much good. because you can't flirt
with them and keep them dangling.
They make you say either yes or mo-
right away. You can't fool them.
There are many ways in which girl
can tell that a man is going o propose
before he does. First, there is the tone
in his voice. Then his eyes always fol-
low YOU about the room in the most
admiring. adOring way. He looks at
YOU with a vague. far-away gaze, as if
he really saw a vision. or an angel:
but he thinks he does, so let him alone.
At this stage he wouldn't even dare to
call You darling But he has other
ways of showing how he likes you.
Sometimes he drops little hints about
his ideal of a woman. He says he never
met her-until now. Again. he makes
illusions TO his income. and saws he
suPposes it seems so little to you.
Some men propose by showing YOU
their bank books, and saying: viii
that be enough?'
THE only way to propose is the old
way-the way Adam must have pro-
posed 10 Eve. before there was Rnv
money. or reason, or anything in the
world but-lOve. Go TO her and say:
You've got 10 marry me because 7 love
Won and you love ne. and can't live

pOsal is always in fashion"

How Various Sorts of Maize Crea-

Question.

a girl who can no longer be counted
young, and who has been constantly
courted and frequently loved, is con-
vinced that the ways OF proposing are
! as numerous as are the different types
of men who propose. She has her
suitors classified, and knows each by
the class to which he belongs.
Some propose fippantly, lightly, as
if they invited you to luncheon instead
cf matrimony," she says, in the Chi
cago Tribune. They appear TO be
preparing to hedge if they get mo-
for an answer, and to say that they
were only fooling, and really didn't
mean what they said. There are 9th
ers, straightforward, manly, and hon
orable, who take no with such serious
grace that they win your respect and
liking even if they cannot win your
! love.
MANY men propose on their knees,
! some sneak back in the corner of a
sofa, while others stand up boldly, as
| though they were interviewing you on
business proposition. But ii makes
! little difference what attitude man Sc
lects to propose, he always looks

tiOns that they look as if they had

strikes somewhere on the left side.
