BRAZILIANs WILL
SEE CORONATION
Arrive in London to View the Cor.
onation and Spend Money
Most ReckIessly.

LONDON, June 20-All of the in
ternational delegations who will par
ticipate in the coronation festivities
reached this city by Mon
day morning. The decorations are
complete and everything is in readi-
ness for what is expected to prove the
most elaborate ceremony in the his
tory of the British empire.
The only hitch in the program has
been in the welcoming of the official
guests. Despite the large number of
troops modified here the military
authorities have been distracted by
the necessity of providing the suitable
escorts and guards.
One thing much in evidence is the
small number of Americans in the
city. 1t had been expected that many
of the foreign visitors would come
from the United States but the action
of the hotel people In jumping their
rates sent the people to the continent
instead Of to this city One big hotel
is filled with residents of Buenos
Ayres and the manner In which they
are spending their money has been a
revelation to the Britishers, used as
they are to American spendthrifts.
An entire regiment of the king S
guardsmen crack troops of the en-
pire, went on duty last night as guards
of honor to the foreigners. None was
overlooked. Even John Hays Ham
mond. the special representative of
the United States, has corporal and
three big guardsmen at his beck and
call. An armed guard is on duty on
the steps of his Stratten street resi-
dence and all who enter are halted
and compelled to explain their mis-
sion before being permitted to the
presence of the American mining mil
lionaire.

MoTHER-IN-LAW FOR HIRE
Real One Demanded Carriage, So
Groom Rented Another and Got
Himself Into Trouble.

In Marseilles the hire of a mother-in-
law for few hours is quoted at one
shilling eight pence, which seems quite
cheap. The parents of one OF future
happy pair were separated When
asked to the wedding to give her con
sent, the future mother-in-law said. ~
will go If a carriage is sent to fetch
me; If not, will stay at home" The
carriage was promised, but the day and
the hour came, and the carriage did
not, and the future mother-in-law
stayed at home. Very well" said the
bridegroom-to-be, when he saw that
she was not turning up. ~ will find
another mother-in-law" SO he went out
into the street and found one for one
shilling eight pence. She came to the
wedding and duly gave away her
daughter, whom she had never in her
life seen before, and the bridegroom
and bride were made one.
But they let themselves in for more
than they bargained for A complaint
has been lodged and the bride, bride
groom and witnesses are liable to se-
we're penalties for procuring, aiding
and abetting, impersonation, forgery In
q public deed, and other crimes. while
1t seems likely that the marriage in
French law Is null and void, the con
sent of one of the parents having been
given by sham mother. The one shil-
ling eight pence hired mother-in-law Is
being looked for by the police-Lon-
ion Telegraph.

CIGAR Stores Vacant.

CHICAGO, June 20.-Seven new
stores of the United Cigar Stores Co.,
which were to have been opened in
Chicago, have been ordered closed
and it is probable they will never be
opened. A similar condition is said
to prevail in all parts of the country.
Leases have been signed on the Chi
cago stores and the trust will be com
PEELED to pay rent but will go no
further toward opening the stores.
The determination not to open these
new places follows the supreme court
decision in the tobacco case.

FORT MADISON, Iowa, June 90
A few firecrackers, carelessly thrown
into the air b.. some patriotic

port quickly spread that the church
was on fire and several hundred soon
gathered near the edifice. A couple
of boys, a ladder and a bucket of
