The medical fraternity of number of cities in Europe-London, Paris, Vi enna and Berlin--have indorsed roller skating as healthful and beneficial exercise.
 In London the king and Queen Alex. andria, with Princess Victoria, are rol. Ter skate enthusiasts. The king is a great advocate of roller skating on the grounds that it has a tendency to re. duce flesh and he takes his daily exer. else on the rollers. In Paris, as well as Berlin the nobility and ropalty are patrons of roller skating.
 The Parisian milliners and dressmak. CTS have found a new source of in come in manufac turing hats and gowns especially for skating.

Demolition of Chinese Laundries in Tombstone Brings to Light Hiding Places Used by Celestials Struggled into the United States.

The burning down of Chinatown in San Francisco disclosed n number of startling tunnels and various contriv- ances that had been used in hiding the members of the different tongs when pursued by officials or others. The tear ing down of some old Chinese shacks in Tombstone that have stood in that city for the past twenty yfve years, dur ing the past few days, reveals the fact that the Tombstone Chinese inhabitants had number of the same sort of ''eon- veniences
 few days ago w. R. King pur- chased several of the Chinese laundry houses and began to tear them down. The work revealed the existence of a number of passageways from one build ing to the others, so that it would be possible to enter one building and come out the door of another half a block away and on another street.
 In one of the buildings secret door was found in the floor, which, when ground large enough to hold the body of human being, lying down. Run ming from the top of the box to the roof was built an air fine about six inches square, so that one hid in the box could be furnished air. The box shows evidence of having been in re- cent use, and no doubt has been the hiding place of Chinese who have en. tered the country illegally from Mex leo and were hid here from the watch. ful eyes of the immigration inspectors until they could be spirited away to other parts of the country.

The Jewish Sillaux

It appears to be q convention of the modern English novelist to make his villain of Jewish blood Mir. Mister in his Lady Baltimore" goes out of his way to make the objectionable cap italist of his story of Semitic appear. ance; Edith Wharton in her "IIouse of Mirth" makes the most objectionable, though in some ways the most human, of her figures a Jewish "climber, ' and even Rider Haggard in his latest excur- sion to South Africa makes his myster. ious wizard and hypnotist a Jew. He might have been BOer, or, for the matter of that, Zulu, with just as much efficacy as far as the plot of the story is concerned. If there was any thing like the same tendency to create attractive Jewish figures in modern novels, one might not object.-Amer. can Hebrew.

ALL WHILE LATE SHAH
 REMAINED UNBURIED
Representatives of the United States and All Foreign Pow CTS Take Part in Magnificent Ceremony Yesterday,
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
 TEHERAN, January l9.-The corona tion of Mohammed Ali Mirza as shah of Persia took place this afternoon with impressive ceremonies and bril- liant display of oriental grandeur. The scene as the shah aseended the famous peacock throne of gold set with jewels, surrounded by princes, nobles and muL lahs, was of rare magni6cenee. It began shortly after noon, when the dig nitaries and foreign diplomats assem- bled.
 The royal procession entered the throne room an hour after midday. At the head walked the younger brother of the new shah, followed by venerables, priests and mullahs, the new monarch bringing up the rear. Mohammed Ali Mirza aseended the throne while Per sian officials and diplomatic represent atives formed themselves in circular group of which the shah was the cen ter.
 At his left stood the highest person. ages of his court, while at his right were gathered representatives of the United States, Great Britain, Russia, Germany and other powers. The whole presented striking picture.
 Not Too Heavy for This One
 The shah took his seat on the throne and removed his hat and the prime minister placed on his head the jew eled crown which the late shah threw to the ground because of it's great weight.
 In the meantime the chief mullahs be gan to intone slowly from the Koran Then they recited poem by the lau- reate, which was followed by another poetic legend. The procession was form ed again and the shah descended from the throne.
 He walked in front of the foreign delegates, stopping in front of each to speak with words of greeting. As his majesty retired the imperial band play ed the national anthem and the bril- liant ceremony came to an end.
