PETER KARAGEORGEVlTCH IS
PROCLAIMED KING OF SERVIA

Belgrade, June 16.-With scarcely
the excitement which marks an ordi-
nary fete day in the capital, Servia
yesterday instituted new dynasty.
Within less than two hours the meet
ing in the wing of the royal palace.
where King Alexander and his queen
were shot down, the Senate and Skup-
shtina had legally and with due form
ality elected Prince Peter Karageorge-
witch king of Seryia and had notified
him by telegraph of the fact.
The formal motion that Prince Kara
reorgevitch be elected King of Servia
was moved by radical deputy named
Neschits. who was attired in the ma
uonal costume. Immediately shout
arose from the assembly of Long live
karageorgevitchn'
Each member was then called by
name and rose quietly from his seat
and gave his vote for Peter Kara
georgevitch" There was absolute
unanimity, no other name but that OF
Prince Peter being pronounced The
result was greeted with loud cheers
and then the minister Of justice. NJ.
Shiokoyics, hastened to the balcony
overlooking the street and announced
to the people:
Peter, the first Of the dynasty of
Karageorgevitchs. is your new king.
You are congratulated on the unani-
nous vote of your representatives.

II one grain of sand on the shore of
the ocean were lost and scientists were
to spend years in trying to find II they
would be attempting task resembling
that to which the leading astronomers
of England and France are now devot-
ing themselves. says a London cable
gram to the Chicago Chronicle. One
sixteenth of second is missing and
no one can tell where it has gone. Be
tween the suns time as recorded at
Greenwich and as understood at Paris
there is that brief and seemingly unim-
portant discrepancy.
No expense is being spared to trace
the missing fraction. A special build
ing has been erected at Paris, costly
instruments installed, a corps of math-
ematicians engaged and process
that may take years to complete
has been commenced. The inaccuracy
is more important than will appear 10
the lay mind. Longitude is calculated
on the basis of Greenwich time. 1t de-
termines the boundaries of many coun-
tries. A slight variation of time may
change the nationality of thousands of
people. The pursuit of the missing frac-
tion of second is therefore of world
wide Importance. When it is found
not grain of the sands of time will be
missing.

HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE DROWNED
BY A GREAT FLOOD In OREGON

Portland Ore. June 16.-The most
appalling disaster in the history of this
state occurred Sunday evening about 6
O'Clock. when the town of Heppner was
almost entirely destroyed by a cloud
burst. and probably 500 people were
drowned. Heppner is the county seat
of Morrow county and has about 1,250
Inhabitants.
The most reliable reports last even
ing state that the loss OF life will be
at least 500. though the number of
dead may be larger. All telegraph and
telephone wires are down and no accu-
rate information can be secured. A re-
port from lone, seventeen miles from
Heppner. states that 800 bodies have
been recovered.
A wall of water twenty feet high
rushed down the gulch In which Hepp-
ner is situated. and carried everything
before II. The food came with such
suddenness that the inhabitants were
unable TO seek places Of safety. Almost
the entire residence portion Of the town
was wiped out. but some of the business
part. which is on higher ground, es-
capped. Huge boulders weighing a ton
were carried down by the torrent, and
many people were killed by being
dashed against the rocky bluff
Early yesterday afternoon n thunder
storm occurred covering a wide region
OF country, and later heavy rainstorm
set in. many of the small streams over
flowing their banks in considerably
short time. Bridges were swept away
like straws. and the darkness of the
night soon made the situation more ap-
palllng.

been devoting attention to the police
system OF London, England. The
most striking facts, from the American
point of view, that his observations re-

ment and direction of the organization.
3. That London is one of the safest
