NEW KING IN THIS CITY SOON.
A dispatch to the st. Louis Repub
lie, Sunday. follows. This will be OF
especial interest here as q large
number Of Gypsies are turning their
caravans toward this city for the
GROWING Of a new king.
Champaign, ILL.,, July 20.
Long Gypsy caravans wound over
Central illinois roads this week.
bound for Mexico, No, where the
new King of the large Mitchell tribe
will be elected and crowned. ac-
cording to Gypsy ceremonial. In 9th
er states similar move
ments occurred, for the word has
gone out.
The bands which traversed Illinois
three weeks ago buried King Nicho-
las, the old ruler of the clan, in a
Danville cemetery. Since that time
hundreds of Gypsy trains have halted
at the cemetery to gaze on the dead
monarch.
King Tom Nicholas had ruled the
Nicholas or Mitchell tribe for thirty
years. His successor has been se-
lected and the gathering at Mexico
is merely a ratification.
The new King. to be formally elect
ed when the tribe assemblies in Mex
leo, is Emil Mitchell. He was al
nephew of King Nicholas and al
ready Is a KIng-ruler Of all the
Gypsies OF the United States.
He has papers, signed by formerl
President Taft and former Secretary
of State Knox, proclaiming that heI
is the recognized chleftan of Ameri-
can Gypsles.
King Mitchell is said to be mem
ber of the Masonic order. At least
a Masonic eblem is painted on theI
side of the wagon in which he lives.
The tribesmen erected bronze
monument at the grave of the dead
King and held a final ceremony of
parting. A lighted beeswax candleI
was placed by the monument, A bot
tie of wine and perfume we're sprink'
led over the grave.
The old Queen solemnly walked
around the grave, carrying sill
yer vessel, in which flame was
kept burning by small pellets which
she fed to it, She ceased her
march and chant when the flame fl
nally died.
The monument is lettered with the
emblms of the clan. efore the cara
vans left tribe leaders arranged for
flower bed to be planted on the
grave and left funds to maintain 1t.
The Mitchell tribe is of Portuguese
extraction, coming to the United
States from South America. It is one
Of the wealthiest clans in the country
and numbers close to 1000 members.
The entire Gypsy organization in
the United States, over which Emil
Mitchell now reigns, numbers about
1000. From Mexico, they say, the
path will be, to Montana and thence
to the Coast.

CAN BANK sY MAIL NOW.

Washington, ID. C., July ~.
Banking by mail" is the latest in
novation entered into by the govern
ment in connection with the postal
savings system. Hereafter deposits
may be made by mail and withdrawal
likewise effected through the same
agency.
When the postal saving system
was first put in operation postmast-
ers we're forbidden to permit deposits
by such persons as were not patrons
of the postoffice in which they 'soughi
to bank. This was found to work a
real hardship on certain class of
would-be depositors and Postmaster
General Burleson abrogated the rule.
Postmasters throughout the country
now are being advised Of the
change.
