EAST AFRICAN MONARCH.
August Sovereign of Eight Years
Sits on a Throne Of
Scarlet.

The king of Uganda, in British East
Africa, rejoices or grieves in the some
what picklish and chow-chowy name Of
Daudi Chua. This august sovereign
may his tribe increase!-is now going
on" eight, says Everybody's Magazine.
To befit colored scepter bearer he has
a highly colored court. He sits on a
throne of scarlet, and probably the court
carpenters have made it world too
long for his chubby little legs. Under
the British protectorate folks have to
be economical in Uganda, and king
must grow up to his throne, and can't
have custom made one every time he
has growing pains. We can remember
when king of Uganda was every inch
a king, no matter how few his inches.
So sacred, no supra purple was he that
the remains of his food had to be buried
lest it's sacredness strike dead some I'M
happy subject The British have
changed all that. Daudi-we wish We
had photograph of him-Daudi sits on
his scarlet throne, leopard skin under
his bare feet toy gun in his little
hands. Probably not bit more absurd
and many times more Sympathetic" in
the eyes of the heavenly powers than
many wide ruling car or kaiser that
has been, is, or shall be.

THE FIRST STACE-COACH.
wick and Trenton, N. J.,
in 1744

AS public conyeyances or the stage
coach had been in vogue in England
since 1910, the establishment of a sim
liar conveyance was demanded in
America many years before the war for
independence, says the Metropolitan
Magazine. AS early as 1144, therefore
a stage line started to run between
and by 1856 this route had been ex-
tended over from New York to Phila-
delphia. Moreover, as in England, so
in America-the advent of the stage
coach necesSitated marked improve
ments in the highways, while the build
ing of better roads and turnpikes nat
urally created a greater demand for
more coaches, and, what was more to
the purpose, lighter vehicles. In III
there We're but SO conveyances of ev-
cry description in the city of Phila-
delphia, but by 1894 their number had
increased to S27-more than two-thirds
of which were comparatively light We

the local papers TO publish a most dep
recatory article concerning the use of
conveyances in which it was stated
that even farmers wanted carriages"

Diamonds Explode.

A curious fact regarding diamonds is
that It is not uncommon for the crystals
to explode as soon as they are brought
up from the mine. Sometimes they have
burst in the pockets or the warm hands
of miners, due to the effect of increased
temperature. Large stones are more
likely to do this than small ones. Valu-
able stones have been destroyed in this
way BY way of safeguard some deal
ers jmbed large diamonds In a raw po-
tato for safe transport from South
Africa.

Is Making Coal
WORK OF Or. !. c. WHITE IN
SOUTHERN WEST VIRGINIA
ALONG ELK RIVER.

MoRGANToWN, Oct. CDR. !. c.
White ami Ray Hennen, of the West
Virginia geological survey, are at
home for a few days. after some
weeks spent in the central part Of the
State. on work connected with the
State survey. They have been work
ing along the Elk. No details Of the
work have been given out, but 1t is
well known that exploration Of the
great coal fields in the central an /
southern part Of West Virginia is be-
ing made. These fields extend from
Braxton county southwestward across
the State, and the labor and difficulty
of measuring and mapping them Gun
scarcely be realized. 1t is expected
that the result Of this years work will
be embodied in the next report on
coal to be issued by the State. This
report will be awaited with interest,
as it will probably contain much vain.
able information which will then be
given to the public for the first time.
The field work will not be complet-
ed until late this fall.
Much of the surveying has been
done under discouraging weather con-
ditions. because of the unusual
amount Of rain. A geologist doing
practical work on mountain. and in
ravine, carrying an umbrella in one
hand to shed off part of the rain,
while with the other hand he meas
ures and pounds, is not common or
usual spectacle. Yet It could have
been seen many a day this summer
and fall along Elk river, and in the
adjacent country. To wait unit! the
rain was over would be to postpone
the work until next year, which was
not to be thought Of.
The country down there Is none TOO
smooth when the weather is good and
the ground is firm. 1t is much rough
er when rains add to the difficulties
of the explorer who must 90 into all
sorts of out of the way places to OBJ.
tain the information he Is seeking.
DR.. White and Mr.. Hennen will Te-
turn to the southern part of the
State in a short time to continue the
work.
