BETR0THED AT ELEVEN YEARS
ANN of Austria Mere Child When
Her Marriage to King of France
Was Arranged.

Anne Of Austria, whose full name
was Marie Anne Mauricette. was the
daughter Of Philip III of Spain and
Marguerite Of Austria. Her marriage
to Louis Mi, king of France, was ar
ranged by the rulers of the two coun-
tries to bind them together. Anne was
but eleven years old when she was
betrothed to Louis. which plainly
proves that she did not marry from
choice.
The marriage ceremony took place
in France Louis was unable to meet
his consort when she arrived in
France, so he sent his favorite
Luynes, to meet her WITH note from
his majesty. At this time the dark
clouds of unhappiness which were to
mar their future married life We're
not visible and Anne sent in. answer
to Louis gallant note, charming
message in her own musical language.
The intrigues of state were far too
sinister TO allow much marital joy
for the royal couple. Personal inter-
ests were swamped in the court inter-
ests. Anne outlived her husband, who
left a son and heir to the throne of
France. She was very sad at the
death of Louis, who seemed to have a
place in her heart, even though she
had not married him from choice.

PUT ANTIQUARIANS IN FURRY
Historic Old English Building, Long
Hidden Under improvements"
Recently Brought to Light.

Lost for centuries, building of his
tOric and civic Importance was dis
covered at Hereford, England, owing
to the collapse of a modern chimney
in the Booth Hall hotel during repairs.
The building is an ancient, timber
built structure known as the Booth
Hall. According to local antiquarians
a license was granted in 1884 for the
purchase of the site for a municipal
building, and 1t was afterward used as
a house of detention for freemen and
bankrupts. When the chimney coli
lapsed parts of the roof and the cell
ings of upper bedrooms were brought
down, and some fine oak beams and
rafters were exposed. Closer eXami-
nation showed the portions of carved
and nodded work. A member of the
Hereford Woolhope club, a local soci-
ETY. whose chief interest is the preser-
walton of ancient work of the county,
persuaded the owners to restore the
building, and after the partitions and
ceilings Of the old attic bedrooms had
Deen removed three HdhuSOiHe iiaih-
mer-beam principals and two tie-beam
principals were discovered, the ham-
mer-bealns having carved brackets,
with fignreheads. and the tie-beam
principals with paneled king posts
contained beautiful tracery panels.
Cusped wind-braces between the prin-
cipals decorate and strengthen the
structure

SAYS
COAL STRIKE WILL
BE ENDED IN MONTH
tBy Associated Press,

INDIANAPOLIS, April 2S-The pres
sent suspension of work in the coal
industry will be ended in month, H
N. McGill, director of the Commodity
department of the Babcock Statistical
organization, of Boston predicted in an
address here last night before the In
diana Retail Coal Merchants assocfa-
ton. How the termination will be
brought about Mr.. McGilI did not
say
"The coal industry is one of the
last to feel the depression which has
affected most lines of business" Mr.
McGill said. "The coal industry still
faces a readjustment in production,
profit, wages and overhead expenses.
While we do not pretend to say what
the outcome of the present strike in
the coal industry will be. we feel t1lt
there will be a reduction in wages.
After the strike is settled. we believe
that the rate for bituminous coal will
be lower. Anthracite conditions are
somewhat different and there will
probably be no marked decline in that
commodity"

STRIKE PROBE, WALSH
NV Associated .Pressl

BOSTON, April Ex-senator Walsh
of Massachusetts in a telegram to
Mayor Curley today declared that
nearly every member of congress, the
senate particularly is today either for
or against labor, and the possibility
of getting an impartial tribunal for a
strike investigation is unlikely" The
message was in reply to one from
Mayor Curley urging congressional
investigation of the New England text
lie strike.
'T regret to say the senator said,
that in my opinion any attempt to OBJ
tain favorable action upon the strike
by the present congress will be futile.
There is evidently movement
throughout the country among capital
istic interests to refuse TO arbitrate or
otherwise agree to a compromise set
tlement of existing strikes. 1t is also
my opinion that the majority of the
officials directing the policy of the
present administration are not in sym
pathy with the strikers point of view,
To submit strike investigation tc
those antagonistic to the fundamental
rights of the laboring class, such as
the right to organize and collective
barganng, would hurt rather than helI
the strikers"

Richmond is being considered as one
of a number of landing stations on an
aerial transportation route planed by
the Wright Aeronautical Corporation,
of Paterson, n. J., according to a let
ter received by Postmaster c. B.
Beck The letter asks Mr., Beck for
information about the possibility of
securing a suitable field, and the prob

ward the maintenance of an emerg-
ency landing field for commercial air
craft as a part of city development"
Mr. Beck has in mind the landing
field used by the Chenoweth company,
about two miles north of the city. He
was to take the matter up with Claud
Berry, owner of the land, to learn if
Mr.. Berry would be interested in sell
ing or letting the ground for the pur-
posed named.
Among the questions asked in the
letter from the aeronautical corpora
ton was the present population of
Richmond; name and address of local
power company; characteristics OF
lighting and power current; Supplies
of A c. or D. C. and VOLTAGE; name
and address of local telephone com
pany; general contour OF adjacent
country, weather conditions on the
average; direction of prevailing winds
etc.

curing a tract of land, preferably 80
acres in length and II acres in width
"As far as we are concerned, we
will do anything we can to encourage
the project, said Mayor Handley, Fri
day, when asked about the probable
attitude of local authorities toward
maintaining an emergency landing
/ field.
/ Mr. Beck is now busy answering
the questions regarding local condi
tions. The next move will then bt
up to the corporation.

WATCH WEAK PARTS
OF LEvEE; WATERS
COVER FARM LANDS

NEW ORLEANS, April 2S.-With
two great sections of Louisiana farm
Land already inundated by flood wat
ers from two breaks in the Missis-
sippi river levee in the last As hours,
levee engineers today were concen-
trating their attention on other points
in the lower and middle reaches of
the river, where the torrent is threat
ening to break through.
The levee near Arkansas City, Ark,
and at Plaquemine, La, were the two
points where trouble was most feared.
Although additional forces of labor
were put to work also on the levies
south of Hickman. KY, and north of
Greenville, Miss, levee engineers
early today said break at these
points in the central sections was not
expected.
Flood waters sweeping from the
second break Yesterday at Poydras. 12
miles below New Orleans. today had
flooded more than rs 900 acres of SUI
sd anu u uChlllS ldIluS III OI.
and Plaquemine parishes and about
$50 families had been driven out of
section of ST Barnard parish be-
tween the river and Lake Bogue Eff
forts were still being made to tie the
ends of the crevasse which had widen
/ ed to more than four hundred feet
early today, but there was practically
no hope that the gap could be closed
at this stage.
Crevasse Widens.
! Further up the river, waters rush
| ing through the break north of Ferri
duay, La, had engulfed practically
/ the entire area of Concordia parish
and were threatening more tha nhalf
of Catahoula and large part of three
other parishes. The crevasse, which
/ has spread to width of more than
1900 feet, was inspected by govern
ment engineers yesterday and it was
understood an effort will be made to
check further crumbling of the em
bankment.
| Flood waters were reported to be
! four of five feet deep in. the town OF
/ Ferrday, four miles north of the first
| break, and the entire district opposite
| Natche, Miss, on the Louisiana side
was vast inland sea with boats af
fording the only means of communi
cation. Vidalia. town of 1000, is
in the direct path of the flood, but had
not been reached by it last night.
More than 1000 persons are being
| cared for in the refugee camps estab
lished at Natchez and neighboring
points in Louisiana by the Red Cross
which report an urgent need for more
tents and equipment.
