Old Mexican Remembers the Comet.


Among the visitors to the city re-
Gently was an old man from the State
of Oaxaca, Jose Maria Manceroeby
name, who was born ninety-eight
years ago in a little village in the dis
trict of Ixtlan de Juarez.
Mr.. Mancero remembers the HALEY
comet which appeared in 1885. AT
that time he was still living upon a
ranch in what is now IXtlan de
Juarez, where he still lives He re-
lates that the Indians were scared out
of their wits and that an unprincipled
priest collected hundreds of dollars
to pay for masses for the souls Of
those who should be killed when the
tail Of the comet should brush the
earth.
For several weeks this priest went
throughout the State preaching Of the
day of vengeance that was to come
on account of the iniquities of the
Liberal party, some soldiers Of whom
had robbed some churches in Ixtlan.
He was a most dramatic and realistic
talker, and he had hundreds of poor
Indians so thoroughly frightened that
they fed to the hills, where they hid
in the caves in the mountainsides, so
as to be out of the influence of the
poisonous breath of the comet.-Mex'

VAST PAGEANT OF EMPIRE.
Plans for the CroWning Of kin|
George Next June.

It is probable that London will
scarcely be able to accommodate all
the visitors who will crowd into this
city next summer, for there has been
arranged a round of festivities in con-
nection with the coronation of King
George and Queen Mary that will
draw people from all the ends of the
earth.
Although nothing official regarding
the exact date of the coronation has
been announced it is generally &C
cepted that it will take place in the
week commencing June Is, probably
on Wednesday, June 81. Already the
arrangements are wsll in hand. 1t is
to be made a vast pageant of empire
in which all the overseas dominions
will take part.
Each will be represented by con-
tingent of troops and the procession
which will accompany their majesties
from Buckingham palace to Westmin-
ster and the forces that guard the
line of route will be thoroughly typi-
ical of the might and strength of the
empire.
The word has gone forth that moth
ing must be wanting to make the event
worthy of the empire. Socially the last
fortnight in June and the early days
of July will be a period of unexampled
gayety.
First and foremost wi4l be the festi-
val of empire at the Crystal Palace
in which no fewer than 10000 per-
sons drawn from all parts Of the en-
pire and from all ranks of society Will
take part. The pageant which will be
seen at the Crystal palace will be al
most as brilliant a spectacle as the
coronation itself.
Then there will be the great impe-
rial exhibition at the White City. EV-
cry country in the empire will be
represented. There will be hundred
buildings devoted to an exhibition OF
their arts and industries and the home
life of their people. There are COM
mittees engaged now in distant lands
selecting inhabitants typical OF the
various races.

STATEMENT FROM MIR. REID.
Magistrate Says Grand Jury Was Mis-.
Informed as to His Action in
Nose FarrOw Case.

Chappells, S. c., Dec. 5, 1910.
Mr.. W. H. Shelley, Foreman Grand
Jury, NeWberry County.
Dear Sir: Upon reading the present
ment Of the grand jury for the fall
term Of 1910, as published in the coun-
ty papers, was astounded at the
statement made upon information re-
eeived concerning the settlement Of
the Nose Farrow case.
Now the facts in the case are as
follows: Some time during Septem-
Der, 1910, one Lee Spearman, came to
my Office and swore out a warrant
against one Nose Farrow, charging
him with being drunk and disturbing
the peace Of religious service at Little
River church in August, 1910. The
warrant was placed in hands Of Spe-
cial Constable J. W. Darne1l, for exc
cution, the regular constable being
absent at the time. Before the day
set for trial Of the case Lee Spear
man, the prosecutor, withdrew the
warrant, stating that the case had
been settled out of court and among
themselves. I had nothing whatever
to do with the settlement, knowing
nothing Of it until request was made
to withdraw warrant, nor did I re-
ceive one cent in pay either directly
or indirectly.
Your reliable informer has misrep-
resented the case entirely either
through ignorance or with the malic-
ious intent Of rejecting On me, rath-
er than a desire to see justice done.
It is to be regretted that any person,
no matter how unfriendly should be
the feeling existing, would willfully
make a charge of so grave nature
until they were positive of the truth in
the case.
7 feel that a great injustice has been
done me and in further proof Of the
case above referred to w5ll submit
to the solicitor certain af1ldaTits OF
reputable persons who were present
at the settlement Of case outside OF
my court, who tetsify that I was not
connected in any way with settlement
of same.
Yours respectfully,
W. R. Reid.
