GUT THE PRIMARY

Voting.
Ispeclal TO The Tlmes-Dispatch.

IYNCHBuRC;, VA. May 6.-There
seems to be no doubt that large num-
Der of Democratic voters of the city
refused to take part in the municipal
primary yesterday under the belief
that by doing so they would thereby
pledge themselves to vote for the NOM
.inee of the National Democratic Con-
yention ut Denver. delegates to the
State Convention at Roanoke having
been selected in the same primary.
This seems to be the only way to ac-
count for the fact that not more than
cne- third of the qualified voters took
part in the election. despite the fact
that 1t is held that those who did not
vote for delegates to the State Conven-
ton would not be in any manner
pledged to abide by the action of the
Denver convention

Coal Used BY Romans.

It is believed by some historians that
coal was used by the Romans on the
continent and by the Brltons on the Is
land before the arrival OF Caesar. As
early as 1884 Henry III. granted a H.
sense to dig coal near Newcastle, but
a few years later the use of coal was
forbidden in London, the smoke being
deemed prejudicial TO public health.
In 1906 the London gentry petitioned
the king against Its use. declaring that
in spite of his royal order certain ma
llclous persons persisted in burning it.
Goals began to be brought from New
castle to London I'm 1881, during the
reign Of Richard II. BY the year 400
coal was commonly burned in London
as a fuel. though 200 years later, in
the reign Of Charles l., It's use was far
from being general throughout Eng
land. Anthracite coal, which, except
the diamond, is the purest form Of car
bon known, was first used by a Con-
necticut blacksmith named Gore In
176S and as a domestic fuel by Judge
Jesse Fell Of Wilkesbarre. Pa, in 1908.

a Fairy Tale Kinodon1.

The kingdom Of Uganda is a fairy
tale. You climb up a railway instead
Of a beanstalk, and at the end there Is
wonderful new world. The scenery
is different, the vegetation is different,
the climate is different and, most Of
all, the people are different from any
thing elsewhere TO be seen In the
whole range Of Africa. Instead OF the
breezy uplands we enter a tropical
garden. In place of naked painted
savages clashing their spears and glib
boring in chorus TO their tribal chiefs
complete and elaborate polity is pre-
scented. Under a dynastic king par
lament and a powerful feudal sys-
tenn an amiable, clothed, polite and in
telligent race dwell together in an or
ganized monarchy upon the rich do
main between the Victoria and Albert
lakes. - Winston Churchill, NJ. p. in

3 rod. followed by a gentleman carry
Ing a tablecloth, which, after they had
knelt reverently three times, was
spread upon the table Then came two
others. one with a rod, the other with
a saltcellar, plate andxbread. They
knelt three times, placed the things on
the table. knelt again and retired. Next
rame a lady in waiting. followed by a
second. The first lady, dressed In
white. after kneeling three times, ap-
preached the table and solemnly rubbed
The plates with the salt Then entered
twenty-four yeomen Of the guard clad
In scarlet and each carrying a dish Of
gold. These dishes were placed upon
the table. while the lady faster gave 70
each Of the guards a taste from the
iish he had brought I'm for fear Of pos
sible poison. These guards were Sc
lected from the tallest and stoutest
men in all England. At the close Of
this ceremony a number Of unmarried
ladies' appeared and with great solem-
nifty lifted the various dishes and car
ried them to the queen in her private
apartments. The queen dined and sup
ped alone. with few attendants. and It
was seldom that any one was admitted
at this time, and then only at the inter
cession Of some one IN power.

An Enjoyable Hour.

The monthly social tea given
by the Woman's Missionary So
ciety of the Baptist church at the
hospital home of Mrs. II. II. Wei
Ter on the afternoon of the 10th
was indeed an enjoyable hour.
The lady guests from other
folds" added much social refresh
ment and the new acquaintance
formed under such wholesome in
f1uences will prove a treasure for
friendships store. The call was
made, from which state of the
Union does each hail?" No less
than twelve states were named as
places of nativity. Texas being in
the lead, yet each magnifed her
native state, and memory recalls
these words:
'Breathes there man with soul SO dead,
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my native land?'
The program of the afternoon
was well rendered, including both
instrumental and vocal music, be-
ginning with a Bible reading, tell
ing how the faithful women y no
were first at the empty grave of
the Savior were commissioned to
bear the first message that the
Lord had risen.
The dainty and delicious lunch
prepared by Mrs. Weller was ele-
gantly served and enjoyed to epul-
osity. The members dispersed to
meet at the church Thursday after
noon, Jan. %, at 500.
