Ceremony at stonehenge.
The date, June 20, was selected for
the ceremony because it was the long
est day in the calendar. The sacred
five, clad in flowing robes of Tyrian
purple. white and gold, which bore
mystic signs about them, set out for
the historic circle of Stonehenge long
before the dawn. They were follow
ed reverently by a goodly number Of
worshipers, who included several
Americans who were visiting Stone
henge.
When the sacred five arrived at
the great stones they sat down -
tiently to await the rising of the sun.
1t is necessary that they should wait
until the first shaft of light strikes
the head of Chaba, the great altar
stone in the center, when their cere-
mony can begin.
A little after a. m. the sun swung
up above the horizon and few mo.
ments later point of light appear
ed on the head of the ancient altar
stone. At once the ceremony Of the
sun worshipers commenced.
As the sun slowly rose over the
great plain of Salisbury the weirdly
clad priests of the order rose. too.
and proceeded to walk solemnly round
each Of the giant stones, bowling low
before each and chanting the invoca-
ton OF praise to the sun. When they
reached the altar stone the chanting
ceased and the chief priest or mes
senger stood forward and in stento-
rian tones asked:
Brethren, know We why we are
gathered into this sacred meet
ing?
To which the worshipers solemnly
made reply together:
ITO proclaim Our recognition of
the power of Allah. the universal ma
jesty and love infinite, according to
the commands of the sacred five, the
great souls and angel messengers of
Allah to the sons of men,"
Following this one messenger pass
ed into a deep contemplation, while
his followers raised their hands to
the sun from time to time and utter
ed strange cries and invocatiopansss
At the end of an hour the4pkgrim-
age returned to have breakfast. There
was another ceremony called the
service of preparation at II a. M. and
at $50 in the evening a message was
delivered to the pilgrims within the
sacred Enclosure by the high priest.
He told them of a wonderful mani
festation which was coming to them
from ON high in 1914, and urged them
to prepare for it.
"See that it does not catch you I'M.
awares!" he cried.
The last time that sun worshipers
were prominent in London was ut
the end of last year, when represent
atives of the Mazdaznan, the queer
Chicago sect, came over to make con-
verts in the metropolis. The Mazdaz-
nan sun worshipers were accused of
having worshiped as an earthly sun
god Willie Lindsay, the 12s year old
son of an American contractor.
For q time they held services in
an unfurnished house in Seymour
street, near the marble arch, but the
cult found little favor in London.

Fourteen London Stations to Be
Closed in Line With Cur
taiIment Plans

LONDON, March 3.-The coal strike,
the greatest in the history of the Brit
ish isles, is marking time over the
weekend. one satisfactory feature is
the complete absence of disorder.
All negotiations looking to a settle
ment have ceased, as the leaders who
recently gathered in London have scat
connection with the strike.
Labor leaders in recent speeches have
insisted upon the Importance of sup
porting the miners because, now that
the government has decided to institute
minimum wage in connection with the
mines. it will be impossible longer to

In. all industries. Thus the strike will
become a general triumph for the cause

The next word is with the govern

statement tomorrow is awaited with
interest. However, no arrangement
has been made for the introduction of
minimum wage bill.
At mass meeting of dock work

Fighting Within City
The fight is said to have been spir-
