An EnaIish centenarian.

Thomas Moore, an inmate of the
Kings Lynn infirmary, attained his
101st birthday recently. and received
the congratulations of several friends,
amongst whom was his youngest
brother. 20 years old. The centenari-
an is the eldest of a family OF nine.
His mother died at the age OF 102, and
his father. whom he remembers being
pressed for the navy. died. aged &c.
ctere is a slight failing in his eye
sight. but otherwise he retains all his
faculties unimpaired. In his younger
days he visited all the counties OF Eng
land as a travelling coniurer. Later
in life he became a peddIer Of nuts
and oranges. an occupation which he
followed until well into his looth rear.

saddle-cloth. Surrounding them were
footmen in scarlet and gold 'liveries
and bearing massive silver slaves.
The Duke of Connaught, who repre-
sented King Edward, and the Duchess
OF Connaught followed. Their elephant
was equally gorgeously caparisoned.
Then, in order of precedence, came the
Nizam of Hdyerabad, the Maharajah
of Travancore and other ruling chiefs,
seventy in all, their huge elephants
forming line a quarter of mile In
length.
The route was entirely lined by Brit
ish and native troops. From che bat.
terry posted at the fort commanding
the Lahore gaze, guns Numbered out
a royal salute as the Viceroy passed
with the heralds and trumpeters
sounding at intervals spirited fanfares.
In the rear Of the procession rode
General Lord Kitchener, the Com
mander-in- Chief in India, surrounded
BY a brilliant staff and followed by the
heads of the provinces, with escorts
of Indian cavalry and tribal leaders
from beyond the border line.
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1903-01-09

Two hundred and twenty of the
hugest elephants in Asia trumpeted
a salute to the Viceroy of the Kaisar-
Hind as he and his American wife
made their state entry into the ancient
capital of the Moguls Dec. 29.
Since the days Of the great Aurung-
zebe, the descendants of Tamerlane,
India, has seen no such splendor as
the pageant around the Jumma Musjid
when the ruling Princes filed past the
Viceroy and the Emperor's brother.
Each monster elephant, almost hid
den In the gorgeous embroideries of
Cashmere, iridescent with gold, silver,
pearls and precious stones, raised his
trunk and trumpeted homage as his
royal master raised his jeweled scimi-
tar to his turban in salute to the abb
sent Emperor.
At the head Of the elephant process
sion rode Lord and Lady Curzon on
the state Grand Tusker," twelve feet
high. the largest elephant in India.
Their hewdah was decked with gold
and silver, and the elephant itself was
almost hidden beneath gold worked

Down the main street moved the
cortege through lines of saluting sol
diers and excited, surging throngs OF
natives; through the ancient CITY,
with the balconies and housetops teem-
ing with life, and through the Moree
gate into the open park beyond
There, after four-mile march, the eie-
plants of the Viceroy and the Duke
of Connaught halted side by side, ana
the pageant was concluded with the
great Princes filing by, their elephants
trumpeting a salute.
The Viceroy was in state UNIFORM
Lady Curzon was dressed in gray, the
Duke of Connaught wore field mar
shal's uniform and the Duchess OF
Connaught was in blue. They received
a flattering welcome at all points.
A touching feature Of the spectacle
is said to have been the presence OF
a descendant, by the female line, OF
the last King of Delhi, whose sons
were executed by the British for their
part In the Indian mutiny Of 1857, the
King himself being sent into life exile,
and dying a few years later.

GREAT WESTERN WRITER DEAD
Literary World Loses Leader In Mrs.
Mary n. Catherwood.

Mary n. Catherwood.
Mary Hartwell Catherwood. re-
garded as the foremost writer of west
en historical romance, died at Chi
oago last week.
Mary Hartwell Catherwood was born
In Luray, Ohio, Dec. 16, 1847. Her
parents died when she was 10 years
old. She was educated at the Wom'
ans college, Granville, o., from which
she graduated in 1868. She settled at
Newburg, N. Y, on the Hudson,
where she earned her living by writing
stories for the New York weekly pa
pers and later for the magazines. Her
earliest stories were for children and
were published in Wide Awake.
Mrs. Catherwood came to Illinois in
1877 from her New York home and
located at Hoopeston, ILL.,, where she
was married to James Steele Gather
wood twenty-five years ago. From
Hoopeston the Catherwoods removed
to indianapolis, but returned to Hoop
eston in 1885, where they lived until
1900, when they went to Chicago.
Her 6rst great success was achieved
through a historical romance called
Romance of the Dollard," founded on
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1903-01-09
DEATH OF MRS. FREMONT.
Brilliant Woman Practically Unknown
to Present Generation.

Brilliant Woman Practically Unknown
to Present Generation.
The announcement Of the death OF
Jessie Benton Fremont in California,
with whose early fortunes both she
and her husband, Gen. John c. Ere
mont, were closely identified, will
hardly affect the present generation,
which knows little about this once
brilliant woman. Indeed. the interest
in her life now is purely reminiscent;
but her death will bring up many in
teresting memories to those whose
recollections go back half century
and who will recall her as the hand
some. dashing, high spirited wife Of
Lieut.. Fremont and daughter of Sen
ator Benton. She was the young lieu
tenants support and inspiration In
that famous exploration which made
him known all over the country as
"the Pathfinder" She was the wife
of the first Republican candidate for
the presidency. and had Fremont been
elected she would have had brilliant
court at the White house. over which
she would have presided in queenly
style. She was honored at European
courts, where her wit and beauty
made her a social sensation. She was
the belle of many cities, a general IA
vCrite in an unusually wide circle of
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1903-01-09

ence made bitter the joy of expecta-
ton.
But she kept her own counsel, and
doubted and debated the matter in
her heart until the hands of the great
clock were rising quickly to the hour
of fate. Then she laid down her fine
sewing and said, Mother, want to
walk in the garden. When I come
back, my task will finish"
THAT is well. Joanna, too, has let
her work fall down to her lap. Go,
both of you, and get the fine air from
the river"
This was not what Katherine
wished, but nothing but assent was
possible, and the girls strolled slowly
down the box-bordered walks together.
When they reached the river bank a
boat rowed by with two English sol
diers, stopped just below them, and
lay rocking on her oars. Then an Off
Ger in the stern rose and Katherine
saw Capt. Hyde fling back from his
left shoulder his cloak, in order to dis
play the bow of orange ribbon on his
breast.
Katherine went back to the house
as merry as bird. She chatted OF
this and of that and sang snatches OF
songs, old and new. And all the time
her heart beat out its own glad re-
frain, my bow of orange ribbon, my
bow Of orange ribbon!"
