The CORONATION
WILL BE SECRET
AMERICAN TOURISTS WHO JOUR
NEY TO JAPAN IN NOVEMBER
MAY BE DISAPPOINTED
Ceremonies of the Coronation of the
Emperor Will be Behind Closed
Doors at KyOtO Castle

By the United Press Associations.
TOXIC, July 14-(By mail) = Re-
ports are arriving in Japan that par
ties of American tourists are being
made up to visit Japan in November
and attend the coronation of the en-
peror. Japan has many attractions in
but Americans should be warned that
seeing the coronation will not be one
of them.
The ceremony is entirely private, ta-
king place from start to finish with
in the walls of the Imperial castle
at Kyoto. The only foreigners who
will be admitted are the ENJOYS extra
ordinary of foreign powers. In view
of the war it is expected that the Eu-
ropean countries will not send spe-
cial envoys but will appoint the am
bassadors and ministers resident here.
Chairs will be provided for them in
the great hall where the emperor af
ter the coronation in private before
the shrine of his ancestors will an
nounce himself to representatives of
his subjects and of foreign nations.
Those official personages alone will
be permitted within the walls of the
castle and only for this semi-public
part of the ceremony and for the ban
quet which will take place the fol-
lowing day.
There will be no professions which
tourists might hope to record on their
cameras and neither influence nor dol
lars will open the closed doors of the
castle. i'*
There will be of course, the sight of
the emperor and empress arriving
and departing by train, and Kyoto, al
ways a lovely city, will be filled with
the hustle of uniformed and decorated
persons coming and going. But to the
Japanese mind it is profanity to re-
gard the coronation as a spectacle and
foreigners in making their plans had
better take into account the absolute
certainty that they will see nothing
more of the cornation than the walls
of the building in which it is being
held.

ITALY FEELS
WAR HORRORS
VIVID DESCRIPTION OF SCENES
AT ROME WHEN WOUNDED
COME HOME
Future King of Italy Concerned Over
His Fathers Fate, Sought Wound
ed Men
By ALICE ROHE

| UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
By the United Press Associations
ROME, July 14.-(By mail)
hundred wounded soldiers, the first
visual horror of Italys entrance into
the war, arrived in Rome, today.
Rome, emotional, responsive, gazed
upon the unloading of the two train
loads and their despatch in tram-cars,
ambulances, and automobiles to the
various hospitals. 1t was sight long
to be remembered. Traffic was
stopped as the vehicles bearing the
Red Cross passed through the city.
Women wept aud men, hats in hand,
cheered the returning wounded, while
from the same depot fresh recruits
were departing for the front
So far Rome had gazed only upon
these departing soldiers, banners
have flown, and flowers had pelted the
"soldati.'' Today all was changed.
The little Crown Prince and his sis
ters, his mother Queen Helena and the
Queen Mother Margueritta have been
at the station to cheer the soldiers on
their way to the mountains to join the
men with the king
Today in the midst of the surging
Roman crowd the Crown Prince again
was among the people. Two wounded
men in particular attracted his atten
ton for they wore upon their breasts
medals for bravely. Strongly affected
at the sight Of these two heroes the
little prince insisted that they enter
his automobile and be conducted to
the hospital in his company. The
Roman crowd watching the scene
broke into cheers and wild demon
strations. '-t'
"Vive Prince Humbert!" 'Vive Sa-
voia," "Vive the army"
But the Prince of Piedmont, future
king of Italy, his eyes fastened eager
ly on the two soldiers, began to ques-
ton them eagerly.
Have you seen papa-the king"
The two soldiers, eyes filled with
tears, voices broken with emotion
tried in vain to reply.
II would like to go to the front
and fight with the soldiers for Italy
with papa" he said affectionately,
.rying with childish sympathy to en-
courage the two soldiers to talk.
But have you seen papa" he re-
terated
The two soldiers weeping and |
aughing with emotion replied;
Eyes we have seen him. He gave
is these medals with his own hands.
He shook hands with us. He called us
lis brave sons"
"And how is he?" cried the Crown
Prince.
''Fine," replied the soldiers, "and
ighthearted when among us. He

PRIMITIVE RACE
BEING INVESTIGATED
Harvard University SCIENTISTS Are
Seeking Data on the Primitive Peo-
pie Who Lived in the Middle West

States Before the American Indian
By the United Press Associations.
LINCOLN, Neb., Aug 19.-Scientists
from Harvard University are investi-
eating ruins of the homes of a prim-
ftive people who lived in Nebraska,
Kansas, Iowa, and Missouri, along the
Missouri river before the advent OF
the red man to the middle western
plains. The Harvard party, under DR..
Fred H. Sterns, has recently been
working in the vicinity of Nebraska
City and the village of Rock Bluffs.
According to some scientists this
primitive people were more advanced
and also more peace loving than the
Indians who overran the country lat
err These ruins, in some spots are
said to be in good state of preserva-
tion owing to the fact that they have
for centuries been covered with earth
like the ruins of Pompeii
In some instances the charcoal and
ashes Of fires have been found in what
remained Of f1replaces, together with
the fragmentary remains Of crude
cooking utensils.
Near Rock Bluffs traces of what
appears to have been populops vii
lage have been uncovered, much of
the remains being under fifteen feet to
twenty feet of earth.

DEATH ROLL INCREASING
IN LATE TEXAS DISASTER
IMPOSSIBLE TO SECURE EVEN ACCURATE RE-
PORTS OF THE CASUALTIES
COMMUNICATION DEMORALIZED
Claimed That Most Deaths Occurred in the Loss of
Boats-Forty Vessels Missing War Department
Sends Food and Bedding to Stricken District
By the United Press Associations.

DALLAS, Aug. 19.-While every ef-
fort is being made to penetrate the
storm stricken region of Texas, it
became evident that the casualties in
the terrific hurricane will not be ac-
curately determined for days 1t is
known that 115 perished at Galveston
and surrounding coast cities. The
death roll is being increased by re-
ports from smaller cities and towns
but the decentralization of communica-
ton rendered gathering even fairly
complete reports almost impossible.
The laundering of craft at Galveston
and vicinity probably resulted in the
greatest loss of life. 1t is known that
40 boats, mostly tugs, dredges and
fishing boats, with crew probably
numbering 300 are missing and are be !
lieved to have been lost.
Rush Army Supplies In

weston Emergency supplies will be
withdrawn from Fort Wingate,

Interesting Narrative of
 Southern Nevada Pioneer.

"How time flies," exclaimed the editor and manager of the Tonopah Bonanza, as he consulted the calendar this morning, and delivered this mono logue, more to himself than to his hired man, who is amanuensis for this occa- sion.
 "Here it is the 23rd of March, 1915. It doesn't seem possible that on to- morrow fourteen years will have elaps- ed since struck the camp. The years have slipped by and 1 have to look twice at the row of files to convince myself that it will be fourteen years in June since the Bonanza was estab- ished. l think sometimes that old Father Time has not given me the right sort of run for my money, but he has been kindly as well as pressing, and l recall with gratitude the little favors he has done me along the way.
 "We got off the narrow gauge at Sodaville, bade farewell to o.u Bop Stewart, tne mayor since time imme- morial of that big little city, and swung out on Eassr & Humpnrey's stage. Frank Humphrey, if remember arignt, handled the riubons himself. We bowled along all the afternoon till we reached Crow Springs, where we had the whol, starry sky to sleep under, but mighty few bedclothes for the searching air of March night. This was the first stage coach to arrive in Tonopah. It was purchased from Greek George in Hawthorne and brought to Sodavlle on flatcar, where it was unloaded and the horses hooked on.
 "Incluled in our party were Tom Kendall of Virginia City, Cal Brougher, Bannock Jim and Delmar, the gambler.

Copper Discovered on
 Island of karmoen.

A. D. Udhany, Christiania, Norway, writing the New York Engineering and Mining Journal, tells of discovery of copper ore on the island of Karmoen, on the southwest coast of Norway, and not far from the town of Stavanger. The discovery of the deposit was made by George Hopkin, an English mining engineer, who has lived and worked in Norway for 15 years past. So far five lodes have been located, running nearly parallel to each other in a hill which rises from the waters edge rather sharply to height of 400 meters. Near the surface these lodes vary from to l5 meters in width.
 Samples taken over considerable range have been assayed at Christiania and found to carry from 4 to 8 per cent copper, with about 50 per cent sulphur. The ore is also free from zinc and from arsenic. The showing so far made is quite sufficient to warrant an expendi- ture for further exploration. It is in- tended to carry this out at once by run ming in an adit to cut the lodes at vary ing depths. This can be done at mod crate cost, as cheap water transporta- ton is available for all materials. The deposits are close to the sea and there is a good harbor. The owners of the mineral claims have secured sufficient lands for the location of docks, store houses and other buildings.
 These deposits are in the neighbor- hood of the Vigsnaes mine, formerly the most noted copper mine in Norway, and it is not improbable that the de- posits are combinations of the Vignaes ore body.
 In connection with this discovery some account of the neighboring Vignaes mine will be of interest. Work in that mine Was started in 1865. The original owners were English, but the mines were afterward sold to a Belgian syndicate for 2,OOO, ,OOO$. From 1870 when the mine was fully opened, to 1850, work was carried on upon large scale, as many as 600 men being em- ployed. From 1880 to 1890 it was actively continued, but with a smaller force. From 1890 the force was grad ually decreased and in 1894 the mine was closed altogether. The reasons for this were the depth of the workings which was then 735 meters vertically, and the fact that the copper contents of the ore were found to diminish with depth.
