BRITAIN LIGHTED BY FIRES
JOY OF THE PEOPLE DEMON
 STRATED LAST NIGHT.
Ala Signal Three Thousand Bonfires Throughout the Kingdom Are Touched On-ArrRsgements for the Kings Dinner to the Poor of London Being Rapidly Compieted-ImProve- ment Still Maintained.

London, June 3O-The general feeling of relief as result of the favorable re- ports of the condition of the king vent ed itself tonight by the touching off of the three thousand bonfires throughout the United Kingdom, which were orig inally prepared to celebrate the corona tion night.
 The signal to light the fires was given at 9:O5; a rocket was sent up from the top of the gigantic wheel in Earl's court and burst into a cloud of stars 1000 feet overhead. In response to this signal bonfires rose from every elevation of any consequence from the Lizard to the Orkneys. The celebration was unfor- tunately somewhat dampened by a downfall of rain.
 London was not illuminated. It had been hoped that the Mansion house, the Bank of England and Marlborough house would join in the celebration, all their Illuminating stands being intact, but none of the official decorations was lit up. The display in London in tnls line was confined to the theaters, the hotels and the business houses on the Strand, Fleet street and other thorough fares.
 There was quite a celebration at Spit head to-day, when the nearest approach to review of the great fleet there was seen in the trip of several transports loaded with volunteers and colonial troops and a number of distinguished persons who inspected the empires first line of defence" .se.....-

shown by both boxers.
 In the lightweight bout Gates of Co., lumbia was fully twenty pounds lighter than his opponent, A. Warner, of the Highgate Harriers. who is the amateur lightweight champion, and much regret was expressed at this difference in weights. In spite of the disproportion, however, Gates put up a piucky fight. Just before the end of the opening round the American went groggy from a succession of heavy blows on the head and Tommy West, his second, wanted to give in for him. Gates. however. in sisted upon another attempt, but with no better result, and the referee stopped the fight before the second round was concluded.
 The courage of the American students was much admired.
 All the amateur contests are limited to three rounds each.

STRIKE ON UNION PACIFIC.
Nachinists auit fin Large and Small . shops of the System.

Omaha, Neb., June SO.-The machin- ists of the Union Pacific railroad, in ac- cordance with their decision last Sat- urday. to-day struck in all the largest and many of the smaller shops of the system. No figures have been received detailing the number of men who went out at each shop, but with few excep- tions the walk-out seemed to be gen. eral.
 President Burt volunteered the infor- nation, however, that his company was not antagonizing the labor unions, and that the management of the road had decided on a fixed policy of using the piece-work system in all it's shops. He said the system had been in use about ten days in several of the shops and had proved satisfactory thus far. He expressed belief that the men would all return to work in short while, and that the whole matter would soon be settled.

Recently a Paris psychologist an
nounced that he had conclusively
proyed that malformation of the brain
produces intellectual brilliancy. The
theory is that deformity, disease or
accident causes the abnormal develop
ment of some part of the brain, and
the result is genius. In support Of this
several cases are mentioned 1t is
pointed out that Milton wrote his Pa
radise Lost while he was blind, and
il is said that the blindness confined
his mind to a certain scope in a man
ner that made it possible for him to
evolve the great epic.
Gases Of a somewhat different nature
are shown in the elegant writings OF
Thomas de Quincy and Samuel Taylor
Coleridge, both of whom had brains in
which the excessive use of opium had
made havoc. De Quincy describes his
horrible experience with opium takeE
in the form of laudanum in his Con
fessions of an English Opium Eater.
