With a son on the throneé of EngJand, a grandson on the throne of Germany and a granddaughter on the throne of Russia, the late queen of England left an extraordinary mark on the royalty of the future.

The occurrence of President McKinley’s fifty-eighth birthday recalls the fact that he is one of the youngest presidents we have had. His military service in the civil war, which was the foundation of his political career, began at an early age.

- Niagara falls has claimed another victim, two duck hunters trying to cross the river in a boat being caught by the merciless current. One of them escaped by means of jumping from one block of ice to another and swimming part of the way. but the other went over the falls to his death.

Truly, “One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.” The heart of every man or woman throughout the civilized globe who appreciates true goodness beats in sympathy with England to-day. It is no discredit to the most radical republican to pay tribute to the virtues of Queen Victoria.

‘A San Francisco dispatch tells of the sale in Chinatown of five Chinese slave girls in accordance with the Chinese custom. The five girls were exhibited and the auctioneer enumerated their good points, a large crowd being present to take part in the bidding. The girls brought from $1,750 to $2.,500, ‘“because of the fact that it is now so difficult to smuggle a pretty Chinese slave into the country.”

A Unitea States court in South Dakota has dec.ded that Indians who hold land in severalty must pay taxes on their property. Soon the gentle red man will have nothing to mark him as a superior being. Taxation is @ great leveler. It falls upon the just and unjust, but the unjust succeed in dodging it sometimes. The Indian who has land will be among the just and will have to pay, for real estate §s visible and cannot be hidden.

The discovery of oil wells in Texas that surpass in flow the best producing wells in the Pennsylvania oil reégion calls attention to the fact that our knowledge of the mineralogy of thé country is based entirely upon a little desultory scratching of the surface of the earth. Of what lies below the surface. except in a few scattered localities, we have no idea. Probably if we did know there would be no necessity of going as far as the Klondike to seek gold.

A new “get-rich-quick” scheme has come to light in New York. In this case the promoters ‘‘guarantee” 56 per cent. on all investments for the Hrst year. That is a modest rate of interest compared with that promfsed by some similar schemes, but it is large enough to scare away all but those who proverbially are scon parted from their money. It is all right to punish swindlers who start these games, but it might be just as well also to commit the swindled to asylums for the feeble-minded.

Exports of the precious metals play an important part in® the enormous sum totals of our foreign trade. In 1890 we exported domestic gold to the value of $20.654,960 and silver to the value of $16,098,189. During the last decade the exports of domestic gold bave more than doubled, while theose of silver have inereased more than threefold. In 1900 we exported of domestic gold $52,787,523 worth, and of silver $59,272.668 worth. Of these metals gold now ranks fourth and silver second in the list of exported metals.’

. There is but one female ruler in the worlid—Queen Wilhelmina of Holland. There are more presidents than any other one kind of ruler. There are 22 presidents, 16 kings, 11 dukes, 6 emperors, 5 princes, 5 sultans, 2 khans, 2 ameers, 1 queen, 1 khedive, Ishah, 1 bey, 1 mikado, 1 maharajah, and 1 rajah, making 75 qwales and 1 fenrgle. But two of these rulers have more than one title—King Edward being also Emperor of India, and William of Germany being a king as well as an emperor. The oldest of the rulers is Sidi Ali Pacha, bey of Tunis.

A New York paper remarks snappishiy: “Mrs, Nation represents a type of women who can do no good in the world and whese suppression is as mecessary to the maintenance of a proper respect for women as it is to the mmaintenance of public order.” Mrs. Nation is not a woman whose methods can be generally admired, but her suppression is not necessary for the reason specified. On the same ground it would be necessary to “suppress” all the men who frequent saloons and get drunk, in- order to maintain respect for the decent men of the community, —————————— ~ The official title of the new king of England will be Edward VII.

: g R - HOMAGE TO THE DEAD l Funeral Cortege of the Queen Passes } ~ Through London. ~ ‘Viewéd by Hundregs of Thousands . of Sorrowing Subjects — Impressive Ceremonies at Windsor, London, Feb. 4.—With every circumstance of splendid pomp befitting the obsequies of so mighty and wéll-be-loved a monarch, all that is mortal of Queen Victoria was borne through the streets of the capital and taken to the ancient fortress-palace of the sovereigns of England. The solemn ‘magnificence of Friday’'s opening phase ~of these last rites was duly maintained. Perhaps the stately grandeur of Saturday’s sorrowful pageant through the swarming streets of London, with ‘hundreds of thousands of mourners forming a black border to the route, will never be surpassed. ’ Diutlng‘ulsnhed Mourners, Never in English history has a sovereign been borne to the grave attended by so many distinguished mourners. The gathering. of crowned heads surpassed those who rode in the jubilee procession. All the great officers of state participated. ‘The display of the naval and military forces reached the great total of 35,000 men. , ; ~ Minute Guns Fired. . The firing of minute guns and the tolling of bells at a quarter past. 11 announced to the countless multitudes who had been crowding London’s muddy streets since daylight that the funeral procession with the body of Queen Victoria had begun its passage through the capital.. W People Seek to See Coflin, The -people fought for hours for a glimpse of the coffin and the kings and others following it. They saw a long procession of soldiers, a passing show of dazzling regalia, with a hundred royaltiés crowding after, and then dispersed, while all the church chimes of the eity were ringing and muffled dirges were played. . Funeral Train Arrives. It was nearly 11 o’clock, when amid cries of “The king of Portugal’s horse,” the “grand duke of Hesse’s horse,” as the princes mounted, the train steamed into Victoria station a minute ahead of time. All heads were uncovered as the saloon carriage bearing the queen’s remains stopped exactly opposite the gun carriage and King Edward, Queen Alexandra, Emperor William and otliers alighted. - Coffin Removed from Train, Then the bearer party advanced to the saloon carriage, and with his hand at the salute and standinga little in advance of the others, King Edward watched the painfully slow removal of the coffin to the gun carriage. It was finally accomplished and the pall and regalia of the Brit--ish crown were placed on the coffin. Procession Starts, The king and the others with him then mounted and the procession started. : The procession, apart from the gun carriage bearing the coffin, and the royal family and official mourners about it, was not noteworthy. Parliament, the judiciary and the commercial bodies were not represented. Royalty, the army and navy monopolized the pageant. Three tsousand ‘soldiers and sailors, picked companies representing all branches of the service, cavalry, artillery, infantr;, yeomanry, militia volunteers .and colonials, formed the advance escort. ’ March Without Music, They marched slowly and without music. Most of the uniforms were covered with dark overcoats and the standards were draped with black, the officers wearing bands of crepe on their sleeves. The infantry marched in columns of four, with rifles reversed. They were half an hour in passing. Then came Ficld Marshal Earl Roberts and his staff, and, after them, four massed bands playing funeral marches. Three hundred musicians announced the coming®of the body of the queen. There was a long array of court officials, under the leadership of the duke of Norfolk (the earl marshal) all attired .quaintly and brilliantly, bearing maces or wands, most of them elderly men who for years had served the royal lady for whom they were performing the last offices. . ' Appearance of Coffin, Most of the spectators expected an imposing catafalque, and the coffin was almost past before they recognized its presence by removing their hats. It was a patheticaily small oblong block ~concealed beneath a rich pall of white satin on the corners of which gleamed the royal arms. Across the pall the royal standard was draped and a large crown of gold, encrusted with jewels, rested at the head of the coffin, which was at the end of the gun carriage, just over the gun. 3 On the foot of the coffin were two smaller crowns with a gold-jeweled scepter lying between them. The ‘eight horses which drew the gun carriage were almost concealed beneath their rich harnesses. A large bow of purple was attached to the coffin. This was the only symbol of mourning. The Royal Mourners. : Immediately after the company about the coffin three royal mourners rode abreast. King Edward VII. was the central figure of the three, but no less' ostentatious personage was seen in the procession. A black chapeau with a plume of white feathers was on his head, and a long black cloak was buttoned around him and hung down over the big black horse which he was riding. The king's familiar face seemed grave and cargworn. He looked straight ahead. apparently at the gun carriage on which was the body of the sov’elﬁeign whose glory and resgponsibilities he had inherited. He did not see, or gave no sign of seeing, the long ranks of soldiers hedging back the populace about Bim. . t o D ‘Apykaran,ee‘ of Emperor William, Beside King Edward rode Emperor William, his nephew and neighbor. The unique, commanding figure of the German emperor could not for a mo‘ment be mistaken, He looked every /inch a soldier and the commander of fen,.. oo o s On the king’s left rode his brother, e

dierly appearance, almost unnoticed and unrecognized by the people. In the seeond rank, behind, rode two more sovereigns, the kings of Greece and Portugal. ' Then followed a dazzling array of members of royal families, numbering about 40 in all and riding three abreast. “So close were they together and so quickly, did they pass that individuals, profpective rulers® of empires, kingdoms ’"and principalities could not be distinguished. o The next section of the procession included the six royal carriages, the first and second carrying Queen Alexandra, the duchess of Fife (now princess royal), Princess Vietoria and Princess Charles of Denmark and the ] daughters of Queen Victoria and the king of the Belgians. ‘ After thé funeral party itself the dominating tigure of the day was Field Marshal Earl Roberts. When his well-known bronzed face came in view the people forgot thé solemnity of the occasion and broke into cheers, also shouting “Bobs” and other expressions of familiar approval. The military attaches of all the em-: bassies and legations were with Lord Roberts’ staff. In the front rank rode the American attache, Maj. Edward B. Cassatt, in an infantry officer’s full dress. The funeral »nrocession occupied two hours in passing from Vietoria station to Paddington, a distance of three miles. The decorations everywhere were impressive, but not elaborate. Purple draperies, hung with green wreaths, predominated. Flags were on most of the v .ildings. " Journey to Windsor. The funeral cortege reached Paddington about one o’clock, and the military section passed rapidly out without checking the movement of the. queen’s bodyguard and the royal! mourners. The officers of (he guards and the household cavalry carried the coffin to the train, and kings, princes and court laaies were escorted to the railway compartments. There was carpeting the entire length of the platform, and the whole north wall was draped, with scarlet and festooned with white and pu-ple hangings. The train was delayed wuntil 1:30, and did not reaeh Windsor until after two o’clock. AT WINDSgR. * Ceremonies Which Took Place in St. ' George’s Chapel, Windsor, Feb. 4.—St. George’s chapel was a magnificent sight and divided attention with the officials and college of heralds, gorgeous in quaint mantles, tabards and insignia, and the medie-val-looking yeomen of the guard, carrying the halberds at slope. The chapel choir, the archbishop, the bishops and other clergy met the procession at the west door. From the organ loft midway of the nave and the chancel came the strains of Mendelssohn’s march from “Songs Without Words” in E minor. The strains of the organ died away and the choir commenced singing softly the sentences for the dead. The solemn cortege proceeded wup the nave, which was thronged with the highest and noblest women of England. “Lord, Thou Hast Been Our Refuge,” to Felton's setting. was next sung by the ckoeir, which had now taken its place fn the transept to the right of the altar. The coffin rested upon a catafalque placed at the steps of the altar. - The cross over the communion table was covered with white flowers and the roredos behind was almost concealed with sprays of fern. dotted with lilies. Thebishopof Winchester read the lesson from the Fifteenth of Corinthians. “Man That Is Born of Woman” was chanted by the choir to- Wesley’s musie, followed by “Thou Knowest, Lord, the Secrets of Our Hearts.” The dean of Windsor read “I Heard a Voice,” and the choir sang the Lord’s Prayer to the music composed especially for the dead queen by Gounod. Once more the strains of the choir welled up through the ancient chapel with the singing of “How Blessed Are They That Die,” by Tchaikowsky. The archbishop of Canterbury read the colleet. and, with quavering voice, pronounced the benediction. There was a solemn pause while all heads bowed. A few sobs were heard and the choir then broke the oppressive stillpess with the sweet harmony of the “Dresden Amen.” : * Then the 'loud tones of norroy Kking of arms, William Henry Weldon, proclaimed the dead monarch’s title. The anthem. ‘“Blessed Are the” Depart'e‘d,” followed, and the service was ‘concluded by the playing of Beethoven's funeral march by Sir Walter Parrot, the organist of St. George's chapel and private organist to the late queen. ; The service at St. George’s chapel was concluded at 4:10 p. m. The body, will lie until to-day in the Albert m~morial chapel. ' Ceremonies to Be Public. London, Feb. 4—The body of the late Queen Victoria has been protected by guardsmen in the Albert Memorial chapel at Windsor since it was deposited there Saturday. The officials of the royal household at Windsor: castle visjted the chapel Sunday, as well as a number of friends, and admired the great display of wreaths. The interment at Frogmore to-day willbe at three o’clock p. m. The ceremony there will, by the king’s special command, be public, instead of private, as was originally intended. The archbishop of York, the bishop of Winchester and the dean of Windsor will officiate, A memorial service was held Sunday morning in St. George’s chapel, attended by King Edward, Queen Alexandra, the duchess of Cornwall and York, Emperor William, Crown Prince Frederick William, the duke of Connaught, other relatives of the late queen and 30 ladies’ and gentiemen of the royal household. After 'the service King Edward and Emperor William walked in/ the grounds, and in the evening they at‘tended a strictly private service, at which Mme. Albani sang. Emperor ‘William will leave Windsor Tuesday, accompanied by King Edward. He will take luncheon at .Marlboro house, after which he will drive to Charing Cross station, where he will ‘take the traip for Port Victoria. He will follow f:ﬁe same route by which Lord Roberts entered London on returning from South Africa, and a _ New Haves, Conn,, Jeb. 4 Pire der smsaamémwmwgwa* mﬁ“?s“mﬁm b%W ig imered ot 8388000, a property loss estimated at $325,000.
