To ECLIPSE LADY CUEzoN. - The
oaicial programme Of the Delhi "Cur-
zonation" makes no mention of the
Vicereine (formerly Mary Letter, of Chi
cago). 1t recognizes only the Viceroy
and the Duke king Edwards brother
and the Duckess of Connaught, who
have precedence next after The Viceroy.
Lady Curzon will follow and stand at
the foot of the Viceroy's throne with a
Duchess in advance of all the other
titled and official persons.
The programme provides that the
Viceroy shall leave his camp with an es-
cort of British cavalry, the Imperial
Cadet Corps aud a regiment of native
cavalry. He will drive into the arena
with the Imperial Cadet Corps and a
bodyguard.
The royal imperial standard will then
be hoisted, the national anthem will be
played and salute Of one hundred and
one guns will be fred.
When this is finished there will be an
other flourish of trumpets and the Vice
ROY will address the Durbar. The rul-
ing chiefs of India will then advance to
the dais and offer congratulations to the
Viceroy, who will receive them standing
with the Duke of Connaught. The Dur
bar will then close and the Viceroy and
their royal highnesses will depart.
The arrangement and allotment of the
huge camps to be occupied by the Vice
roy, his suite, the Duke and Duchess
of Connaught, the Indian princes and
the enormous crowd OF visitors which the
occasion is drawing from all parts Of the
empire has reached an advanced stage.
Forty thousand tents will be required.
A complete system of light and rail-
way is being provided to connect the
various camps, which will almost COM
pletely surround the city of Delhi.
PREFERRED CONVENT TO UNLovED
HUSBAND. Much disappointment has
been caused at the courts of Austria and
Bavaria by the sudden breaking off OF
the bethrothal of the Archduchess Maria
Annonciada with Duke Siegtried OF Ba-
varia.
The event is without parallel in the
history of the House of Hapsburg. the
most exclusive and correct in Eu-
rope. Yet the kind-hearted Emperor,
Franz Joseph, has yielded to the plead
ings of his niece, who declared that she
''would rather enter convent than
marry her fanle0he Emperor's nephew
as "their tesa raren,s do not harmon
zie"
She is, by the way, herself the honor
ary abbess Of the Convent Of Noble
Danes at Prague, having been installed
in this Office on October 10, 1895.

TWO NEGROES LYNcHED.
After Being Tried and Convicted OF
Murder, They Are Strung Up
by a Mob.

Hampstead, Tex, Oct. 22.-After be-
ing tried in legal form and procedure
for criminal assault and murder and
given the death penalty in each case,
Jim Wesley and Reddick Barton, ne
groes, were late Tuesday afternoon
taken from the authorities of this
city and lynched in the public square
by an Infatuated mob. The district
Judge on Monday asked the governor
for militia to accompany the negroes
here from the jail at Houston, where
they were safe. At the request of.a
large number of citizens of Hemp
stead, who, it is said, signed written
promise to aid the authorities in pre-
venting any mob law, Judge Thomp-
son Tuesday morning countermanded
his request and the troops did not ac-
company the negroes.
Forrest City, Ark, Oct. 21.-Charles
Young, the negro charged with assault
ing and afterwards numbering Mrs.
Ed Lewis, white, was burned at the
stake Monday night by mob of in
furiated citizens of this county. At
eight p. m. the mob broke into the Jail
with sledge hammers and took the
prisoner to q point about mile east
OF town, bound him, piled wood around
him and set fire to It. The negro beg
ged piteously for his life, but the mob
turned deaf ears. In short time the
flames leaped up and he expired in the
presence of the several hundred men
composing the mob.

british Troops Routed by the Mad
Mullah's Forces-Fifty Killed
and 100 Wounded.

London, >Oct. 2O.-The British expe-
dition sent into Somaliland, in east
Africa, to punish the Mad Mullah, has
met with disaster. In fight on Octo-
Der with the natives, two British Of
ficers and so men were killed and a
hundred wounded. The expedition is
retreating.
The expedition lost large part Of
its transport and supplies, and many
of its camels were killed. The British
forces were made up entirely OF ma
tives, with English officers.
Col. Swayne, in command Of the ex-
petition, has sent an urgent request
to Berbera for 600 reinforcements.
The Mullah is bringing up reinforce
ments from all sides, and it is feared
here that unless help arrives quickly
Col. swayne's force will be annihi-
lated. ~

The Resolutions.

eve, the committee on resolutions
beg leave to recommend that the fol

forwarded to Theodore Roosevelt, pres.
ident of the United States of America.
"Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 21, 1907
Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, Washington,
D. C.-Dear Sir: We, the representa-.
tives of the employees of the various
coal companies engaged in operating
mines in the anthracite coal fields of
Pennsylvania, in convention assem-
bled, having under consideration your
telegram of October IS, 1902, addressed
to John Mitchell, president of the
United Mine Workers of America,
which reads as follows:
"'I have appointed as commissioners
Brig. Gen. John H. Wilson, E. w. Park
err, Judge George Gray, E. E. Clark,
Thomas H. Watkins, Bishop J. L. Spald-
ing, with Carroll d. Wright as record
err. These names are accepted by the
operators, and now earnestly ask and
urge that the miners likewise accept
this commission. 1t is a matter of
I vital concern to all our people, and es-
pecially to those in our great cities,
who are least well of, that the mining
of coal should be resumed without a
moments unnecessary delay
"We have decided to accept the
proposition therein embodied, and SUBJ
NIT all questions at issue between the
operators and mine workers of the an
thracite coal region for adjustment to
the commission which you have named.
"In pursuance of that decision, we
shall report for work on Thursday
morning, October %, in the positions
and working places occupied by us
prior to the Inauguration of the strike.
"We have authorized John Mitchell,
president of the United Mine Workers
of America, with such assistants as he
may select, to represent us in all hear
ings before the committee.
(Signed) John Mitchell, Chairman of
Convention.
wv. B. Wilson, Secretary of Conven-
ton"
Causes Much Rejoicing.
Philadelphia, Oct. 22.-Throughout
the entire anthracite coal region the
information that the mine workers
convention at Wilkesbarre had de-
clared the strike at an end was re-
ceived with rejoicing. In many Sec
tions enthusiastic demonstrations
followed the welcome announcement,
while at other points the news was re-
ceived with quiet satisfaction.
The greatest excitement was dis
played in the Schuylkill region. At
Shenandoah and Mahanoy City, where
many of the Philadelphia & Reading
Coal & Iron company's mines are To-
Gated, the residents appeared on the
streets en- masse, cheering for John
Mitchell and shouting and singing in
a delirium of delight.
