Nationalists as a protest against the misgovernment of their country, take no part in the present coronation celebrations, and that the Irish party be summoned to meet in Dublin on the day of King Edward's coronation to take into conmderation the condition of Ireland, were unanimously adopted.In the House of Commons last evening Mr.John Redmond, Nationalist, raised the question of the sentencing at Sligo of Mr.Patrick McHugh, M.P., to three months\u2019 imprisonment for contempt of court.Mr.Redmond maintained that the magistrate only bed power to commit for seven days for such Pu ence.government adnritted that the sole authority for consented to a; t i Quire into pi « committee to in- THE KING IN DANGER Story Current in London of a Plot to Take His Life.London, June 18.\u2014A wes our rent in London last Digi dé che discov- newupapers and other circles, but is lacking in anything like officiai confirmation.Accord to the current report the ing'e sudden illness at Aldershot was not due to 6 cold, but was merely an excuse {or withdrawing His Msjesty from public functions owing to tie discovers by Scotland Yard of « plot againet hi life.The priocipals in this plot have not yet brea arrested.It is cited in continne toon of this story that the King's recov- cz when he wan coeconced at MW ndoc le was as complete \u201c| as hi attack bed been sudden.reed On the other hand, it must be point.od out that if His Majesty's illness was merely diplomatie, the officiels certainly took a great deal of trouble in keeping up the fiction.Sir Francis Lalong, physician io ordinary to the King, was sui _ by telegraph to Aldershot, his prescri pons were hurriedly filed and thing about the King's apartments indicated the genuine nature vf his illness.hermore the King's journey from Addershot to Windwor in his motor car end his subsequent drive today in Windsor Park do not seem to indicate any fear of a violent attack upon his person.At Scotland Yard last night the utmost reticence was mmintained coocern- ing these rumors.It wes poticesble, however, that the chief inspectors, who usually return home at night, were ali on duty there, and while they refused to eet newspaper reporters, declined either to deny or confirm the rumor.In a despatch from Geneva, Switzerland, the correspondent of the \u2018Daily icle\u2019 mays the continental i are co-operating with the English police to prevent anarchiste and evil-doers from.amuggling themselves into England while the coronation festivities are in progress, Numerous ansechints have recently disappeared from Zurich and Gen- eve, mys the 4 t, and they are suppowed to be waiting in Paris for a favarable opportunity to cross the King drove Channel.eds e ou est ip a closed carriage.He looked well, Sir Freack Knollys, the King's private wecretary, announced that Hm Hajeiy ja getting on very wel, but that the physicians did not think it advisable that he shouid attend the Ascot race ting.The King pamed o comfortable n t, and b to be progressing fav.orebly.Hs doctors sre not, however, silowing him to transect sony business impo: « three months\u201d t Svat f d Scatie, ward 11 appiving.emis to Tectand, and expt what is of the greatest import- ace.Queen Alexandra is nursing her hus bend, personally directing the ments for his semioct ahd taking = bead of affaire at the castle.THE KINGS HEALTH.OFFICIAL ORDER FOR THB CORONATION DAY PROCESSION ISSUED.London, J 19.\u2014The following statement was eue from Windsor Castle iast night: \u2018We are authorized fo state that in snticipation of the severe strain to which the King wil] be sabjected during the coronstion festivities, His Majesty\u2019s medical advisers have recommended him to forego all public engagements during the next few days.*KNOLLYS!

coronation began yenterday afternoon.The streets from Victoria Station to Buckingham Palace and Park lane, where some of the visitom are lod in pri vate residences, were thron with curious eightecers.The crowds readily made way for the royal carriages, whose red- coated coachmen were the only indica: tion of the statue of the occapante, ail of whom wore ordinary clothes.The platform at

after dripping weeks, the sun seems ready to shine on the coronation.Already, five da before the ceremony, London is half- barricaded, half-beflagged and bemasted, while every street along the eight miles of the route of the royal procession nas its wooden stands and balconies, waiting for their bunting and streamers.Never, in the memory of living man, has the metropolis seen such a to-do.In the face of the coming festivities home politios wre dull and stale.A ripple comes from the South African Loy- aliete\u2019 agitation for the euspension of the Constitution of Cape Colony in order to free Lord Milner from any colonial parliamentary check during the next year or two in the development of his plans, leading up to a federation.of all uth Africa on a mixed Canadian and Australian scheme.This and the doings of the coming coronation conference are the rather slow themes of every one of the muititudinous public dinners and luncheons through which the colonial premiers and other visitors are now be- ine piloted.The Imperial Zollvereinists, who up to Wednewday afternoon were joyfully proclaiming the Chancellor of the Exchequer as a convert to their ranks, are now in despair, and sing a doleful tune.They made sure that Mr.Chamberlain had won over Sir Michael Hicks Beach to some form of customs utrity for the British Empire on the basis of moderate British taxation on i s of foreign food and raw materials in the interests of the colonial producer.Sir Mi- chaeŸs epéech on Wednesday dashes these hopew to the ground.As though it were not of his own cres- tion, Bir Michael Hicks-Beach now denounces as an extraordinary delusion the idea that the government intend to change the principles ppon which the fiscal system of the country ia based.He explicitly states and makes this denunciation in behalf of the whole cabinet.Yet only a few weeks ago Mr.Chamberlain wsa publicly denouncing what be called the Shibboleths of free-trade principles, praying that the occasions which the cereal tax and the colonial conference offered of keeping British trade in British hands might not be lost, All this is something of a mystery which the colonial conference alone can dimi- pate.Experience te that Sir Michael Hin each acide pute hie foot down to take it up agin.If it i facta that the coronation conforence wants, when it comes to consider proposals for a cum toms unity for the Empire, Sir Robert Giffen, the weH-known cconommt, gives plenty in s letter which compels even the Himes\u2019 to admit that no case is left for the much-canvaseed @ tion that the Kmpire encircle iteell with \u20ac 20 1902.percent tariff againsi outside vroducts, the proceeds of the duty forming an [m- perial defence fund.Sir Robert Giffen chows that the importe into Empire ports amount to 472,000,000 sterling, on which a 10 percent tax would yield 247.000,000.But the proportion for the United Kingdom ie £414,000,000.Therefore, the British contribution would be £41,000,000, while the quota of the other parte of the Empire would be only £6, 000,000.On the base of population, the latter ought to pay £10,000,000.With regard to British trade, the trade upon which the navaleupremacy fabric of the whole Empire rests, Bir Robert Giffen shows that the price of all British manufactures for export obviously would be raised by 10 percent.Again, if Great Britais abould differentiate in favor of the colonies, and make them free of the 10 percent on their exports to the mother country, which amount to 110,000,000 sterling, Great Britain would put £11,000,000 into the pockets of the colonies, inst £3,500, 000 of tax which the colonim hase to pay.lo return for all this benefit to the colonies, Great Britain would get nothing.Sir Robert seks what the Brit- josh taxpayer would be likely to think of such a proposal.BACK IN LONDON.Their Najesties Have Returned From Windsor London, June 23\u2014The King and arrived in London from Windsor at 12.30 to-day.His

indisposition.Rigorous police precautions were taken at the ralway station; but the public managed to invade the ridges crossi the track and the arrival the royal train was greeted with wild cheering.The King lost no time in alighting and after chatting with the railway officials entered & carriage.His Majesty PA peared to be in his usual health.He walked, perhaps, somewhat heavily, but

the brown Ghoorkhas, with loug knives and ewai ing strides; the mentthy Pathans, in Oriental uniforms; the copper-faced guarde from the Straits Settlements; the negroes from West Africa and Rhodesia; the wide-awake vol unteers from Canada, and the brawny soldiers from Australia, New Zealand and South Afries, are united in an unparalleled imperial spectacle for staid and sombre on.Piccadilly, Park Lane, Pall Mall and Whitehall are closing with traffic hour after hour, but enlivened with ceaseless byplays of masqueraders and costumes.If Thackeray were in the old corner oi the Athenaeum Club he could have strange glimpses of Oriental maharaj or grand viziers from Uganda, ae oe gowns with ailver hats; or sallow Celes- tials in attendance, and would fail to know Pall Mall, with its timbered stands and brick-red decorations.Piceadilly, is transformed beyond recognition by old- time Londoners.The clattering of bam- mers is heard night and day as the timber construction receives the finishing touches and the red feiting is nailed down and a thousand painters are mixing and splotching colors along the route of the parade.THE CANADIAN ARCH.The most remarkable decoration in town is the Canadian arch, midway of Whitehall, which has reached its finish.It is artistically designed, and has a business and commercial side as an attractive advertisement of the agricultural resources of the Dominion.AI the streets along the line of the royal progress are already fluttering with banners and bunting, t is the fantastic medley of colors that foreshadowed a hope for prety things.Sir Wilirid Lauriet\u2019s first word en the suhject of preferential trade is awaited with peculiar interest by Canadians, who are sorely disappointed by Sir Michael Hicks-Beach\u2019s action respecting the maize duty and Mr.Barton's coolness in dis cussing the imperial zollverein.Preparations for the crowmiuk hurry on apace.It is already difficult for pedestrians to traverse the main thor- ouehfares, such as The Strand, Piccadilly and Whitehall, during the greater part of the day, and they are almost impas- able at night owing to the crowds of visitors, with which atore clerks, costers and London's marvellous floating population generally mingle nightly as they wander through the streets, gazing at the decorations, which are now taking on a finished AR THE COLONTAL MINISTERS.The colonial ministers, all of whom bave arrived bere, are festures of attraction.The sentries guarding their hotel and their gorgeous royal carri and footmen greatly accentuate popular interest.Every afternoon crowds gather outside the Hotel Cecil, gaze at theme brilliant equipages and seem to enjoy the sight just as much as if they knew one premier from another.From the eolonial eontingents some rotests are heard.It appears that the War Office as arranged that all treo; specially sent to the coronation shall.with the exception of the cavalry, be atilized to line the route of the sion, instead of actually taking part in t.As the major part of the visiting contingents consist of infantry.the arrangement has created some disappoint ment.\u2018The Governor-General of Canada, the Earl of Minto; the High Commissioner of Canada, Lord Stratheona.and Col.Pellatt.in command of the Canadians, are doing their utmost to induce the War Yffire to allow the colonial troops to take jar in the procession as units, regard.ess of the arm of the service to which they may belong.COLONIAL GUARD CANADIANS, AUSTRALIANS AND NEW ZEALANDERS DOING SENTRY AT THE HOTEL CECIL, London.June 21.\u2014A guard chosen from the Canadian.Australian and New Zrs- land coronation contingents are doing sentry duty at the Hotel Cecil for the colonial premiers.2e tee BRITISH COLUMBIA LEGISLATURE.Victoria, BC.June 23.-The Provincial Legislature wan pro at noon on Baturday by Sir Henri Joly de Lot biniers, lieutenant-governor.after the longest semion in history of the pre- vince.Ae fee oo ng 3 THE MONTREAL WEEKLY WITNESS.i, 1002, THE CORONATION.«fue fd fh « bmp | TS EEE EE adeptes Se a i a in tion of their coronation shair, which is known St.that h i Sion ree hore du sjenties King Edward VIL.1 and Queen Edward's chair, and \u2018contains the tone vighteouanees She pour wil pti on Ae re af deu the Cl ee sat ietee \u201cou Téuradey, June of the aider, M Slaesty tebe bp rents toe Bore ee pha, the presentation, of it i ster, u ay, 's ajes! es rent.A 1 Details of the Ceremony in West= run {5 hin eri Mi | K' Sou! he proven.wir bs, mar Ever Knibta 0 tbe Gares ho ov | it So sinks Br bro be inodern Houses of Parliament.ballad in» large temporary uilding tle head a canopy Of cloth of gold, ad hitherto usocouniad throne.As the rons i e outside Wi ii I i Procen: je minster Abbey ® all oe mone oe riche Abbey, and thither the regalia will be vessel called the smpulls nome où te tog ors ony Be fod went of religious sevice which consécrates a Sskem tiie Dean and Prebendaries, to stented oil with a gold spoon.With 4)] the coronation ceremonies.Jt wae : sovoreiqn'a life to the wellare of _ the 7 back into the Abbey the this he archbishop moine de Fine introduced whew William and Mary OMENS AND UNLOOKED FOR INCIDENTS AT |pr\\sise eut poor actes st dés Car th onthe the puree.\u201d TS Md maitre the molon a Den albert ile Food ele, io 8 \u2018s church\u2019 ked with ocariet- ;

So it war resolved to robe the Kine in white velvet, but this, it wan semombered too late, was the color in which victims were arrayed.Thus did the King\u2019s Council establish an sugury of evil only too well borne out by the unhappy Charles's death.Further, though tbe weather was not sultry and no such thing anticipated, a severe thunderstorm burst over the capital on the King's return from the ceremony.However, when his son, Charles II.was crowned, it is related that the noise of the thunderstorm.which reached ite climax while the Merry Monarch waa banqueting in Westminster Hall, after religions ceremony in the Abbey, was hailed a9 a good augury !

carried the crown to the Hoi Table, he found it heavier than he hed anticipated, and it slipped from bis hands; fortunately it was saved from reaching the mound: EORGE III.But perhaps the most astounding example of a coronation omen pi jont1- cating events was that thoroughly eu.thenticated incident at the crowning of George III.For then, as he was walking down the Abbey, \u2018a fair large diamond\u2019 fell from the crown, This was so \u2018clear a hint\u2019 of some approachin, disaster to the dynasty that it was muc! commented upon at the time, and when the American colonies rebelled and severed their connection with the Mother Country it was not to be wondered at ed iI the wiseacres shook their foolish heads and murmured: \u2018We told you so.But while George [11s coronation thus affords 6 striking proof of the value of omens, there were in it other incidents of an adverse nature which camo to nothiog.The Denuty Earl Marsha! forgot ; the Sword oS Taling eworde used the 8 f Mercy (there t Ered the Sword of Justise sad £ quet chairs for both King and thet of Mercy) and the Lord Mayor's aword was borrowed.The state ban- ven were forgotten, and the canopy of the throne was not in its place, caunng & delay of some hours, Ki this was the tault of the Earl Marshal, Lord Efiag- hem, who was summoned afterwaris by the King to account for his blunders, and made the amusing reply: \u2018It js true, sire, that there has some noglect, but I have taken care that at the next coronation everything shall he regulated in the exactest manner ble.\u201d This unfortunate remark so amused the King that i.e insisted upon the Earl repeating it several times.CORONATION INCIDENTS ÉVENTS THAT WEBE NOT ON THE PROGRAMME.In very nearly every coroostion that we reed of some unforeseen incident has taken place which by no means formed a part of the programme.These inci dents have arieen irom different causes.Sometimes x was the King who brought in some unrehestsed elenvent, se waen

an indication power or greatness in one kneeling bumbly im the presence of God.As was to be \u20ac , queens regnant or consort have Te their share in bringing about the unexpected on the occasion of their coronation.Quees H¥izabeth wee nothing if not a woman of decided action and speech.After she had bees anointed wits the oil, she said to her ma at was \u2018greese amedt iH.\u2019 Queen Anne, the wile of James 1., refused to take the Holy Communion at her coronation, remarking that \u2018she lad Changed bee religion once before,\u2019 for the Prusbytermn form of Scotland, \u2018and {that

the arms vi those surrounding her.One of the most dramatic examples of unsaticipated incidents was the attempt of Quee.Caroline tu gain admiesion into Westmimster Abbey at the coronation né her

to the coronation of Victoria the Well-beloved, that Lord John Thynne, who acted for the Dean of Westminster, informed him stat eo few persons knew the arder of the ceremonies \u2018that there vus contimual difficulty amd embarrassment, and the Queen never knew what she wes to do next.They made her leave her chair and enter into St.Edward's Chapel be- forte the prayermm were conclided, much to the discomfitare of the Ardhbmhop.and She eaid to Lord Thynne, \u2018Pray tel me am | am to do, for they dont know,\u2019 an at the end, when the och was put sn her hand, abe said, \u2018What am I to

coronation ring had been altered, owing to a mistake 28 to which m the \u2018fourth finger, to fit ber Initle finger.When the Archbishop woe to put it on, she extended this finger, but he mad it must, according to the rubric, go on the fourth finger.She said it was too smell, and she could not get it on.He mid it wea it to put st thers, and es be inmst- she yielded, but dad first to take of er Shag

incident of poor old Jord RoKe fading in his attempt to pay huisage to Queen Victorm and the Queen's gracious and touching descent from the throve to meet him are so well: known as to need ro minute descripléon.Mim Martineau states that @ dmtinguish- od foreigner in reporte the incident uffirmed that the Lords le hoid their title on condition of rolling down ateps of the throne at the coronation of n sovereign.OSHERS WHO CONTRIBUTED THE UNEXPRCTED.There have been times when it wa the officiating Archbishop who has been the one to contribute the unexpected element.Lingard tells us that when Hii2id 1.was to be crowned King, of- ter -wurping the throne in the sbeence of the legitimate claimant, Hardicanute, the Archbishop of Canterbury, et that time Fgilaoth, refused to give the royal benediction, snd turned to the King and eaid, \u2018There ere the erown and eceptre which Canute entrusted to my charge.To you | neither give nor refuse them.you may take them if you please; but T

the two.He au in free'rg the crown from his rival's grasp.But in hie haste he nearly knooked it off the King's head aitogether, end it would Lave fallen to the ground but for the timely intervention of the officials who saved it from such s fate.In n few cases the addition to the programme has come from other than the highest concerned in the ceremonies.hen Charles I.wes led to the people, Archbmhop Laud said, \u2018I dure you by your general aoclamation, to testify your consent and willingness thereto\u201d But to this invitation not a toes por cheer answered; there wea & death-like silence.At length,prompted by the Earl Marshal, the apectatons cried out, \u2018God save King Charles.At the coronation of Charles II a quarrel took place between the roval footmen and the barons of the Cinque Ports ior the n of the canopy.borne by the lester over the King's beau.The King, having noticed the disturh- ver.adore the fontamn tbe après cned and diemissed his service.A difficulty arose at the ceremony com nected with the crowning of George I.The King did not know English and those around hin were not well 2e quainted with German, and so the eer- vice had to be expiained to the Kiss in Latin.This gave birth to a joke whic had & long ran.that moch \u2018bod fau- guage\u2019 bad paswed between the King sud his ministers on the Coronation Lay.THE ENGLISH REGALIA.The ceremonies nf the coronation ot King Edward VIL will, to a great extent, follow those used at the coronation of Richard lI, because they are clearly aid down and explained in 4 little vellum manuscript of the tour teenth century, called the \u2018Liber Regal- is, which has been carefully preserved at Westminster.; Few of the very ancient coronation emblems are in existence to-day, contrary to the general belief.Under the Commonwealth, which had no need of kingly emblems, the ancient regalia ot England were broken up at the Tower on August 9, 1640.Fortunately « few pieces were deposited at Westminster, and these alone escaped destruction.These important relica of earlier coronations were the famous coronation stone of the Scottish ki brought to Eng- Innd by Edward I., the ancient corons- tion spoon, and the golden ampalis used for holding the consecrated cream.The present regalia, with these few exceptions, were re-made ai the restoration of Charles II.These were copied as nearly as possible after the old ones and the royal goldsmith, Sir Robert Vyner, who hud made some of the ear lier pieces, was employed to make the restoration perfect.James II, added other pieces to the regalia, and William and Mary still further improved the col lection of orbs, sceptres and crowns.The early kings and queens used their crowns and aceptres frequently, and formerly the crowns were actually worn in battles.In recent years, however, the royal regalia has been kept care fully locked op in the Tower or at Westminater Abbey.Queen Victoria always kept the vestments worn by her at her cotopation in the robes office at St.James's Palace.Probably the oldest piece of the royal Fnglish regalia is the famous ampulls or golden eagle.which was saved from the Commonweaith with the spoon and along coronation iconoclasta the THE AMPULLA OR GOLDEN EAGLE.stone.History says that this prece wes first used at the coronation of Henry IV.cn Oct, 13, 1200, but it has wince heen modified and decorated by

weil\u2019s time is the old coronation stone, which is set in the coronation chair, end upon which all the sovereigns England have been crowned, except Mary 1.There is a long mythical hie tory connected with this stone, the story being that it was the stone on which the patriarch Jacob slept on the in of Luz.In the ninth century it ound its way eastward, and was placed in the Abbey of Scone by King Kenneth.He lad it placed in a wooden chain and the coronation chair in which it is now set a su enact vopy oh original one.In early superstition connected with the stone it was believed that if any monarch of the Seyth- jan race should sit on the stone it would groan.At one time the old legend in Latin was engraved on the plate, and attached to the atone:\u2014 \u2018Except old saws do fail and wizards\u2019 wits be blind, The Scots in place must.reign wiere they this stone do find.\u2019 \u2014 THE INVESTING.In the coronation of an English king or queen, anoint from the golden ampulla takes precedence in the ceremony, and then the investments with the garments of office follow.The frst investment is that of the Colombium Bindonis, which is alwavs a simple linen garment, edged with lace and ruffles, the stole or armilla followed the dalme- tic.This is & band of cloth of gold, five feet two inches long, and three inches wide.It is lined with silty and the front} is decorated in gold an alk wit! , mrocke, an thistles.At ejther end there is à red cross of Bt.George ground of silver, and finished off gold fringe.The sidle is hung around the neck, although some of the earlier kings had it croesed over the breast.This is likewise a religious emblem, and corresponds to the which is wors to-day over the dslmatic by deacons in the Greek Church.The imperial mantis follows the stole.The imperial mantles of land's recent sovereigns have been mostly decor a with pa: ropes, sag shamrocks, and isties, but she roy mantles of Charles II.and James 11.were ornamented with peim-leaf scrolls, with roses, eagles, fleur-de-lis, and coronets interwoven in the corners.The mantles were all edged with heavy gold fringe, and were long enough to cross over the shoulders and touch the ground at the feet.That of Queen Victoria at her coronation was sixty-fire in in length from the neck downward, ST.EDWARD'S CROWN.The bestowal of the crown is to many the most important part of the ceremony.The actual official crown of England is that of St.Edward, and while all late sovereigns have their state crowne of more recent date and workmanship, the official crown is always present and placed on the head WESTMINSTER ABBEY-FRONT VIEW.| = \u201cgi y THE PRINCIPAL PART OF THE CORONATION DRAMA WILL BE ENACTED IN THE IN CLOSED SPACE IN FRONT OF THE ABBEY ALTAR.at the

Mesars.Fred.Thomson & Co., and hus staff, who manufacture electrical apparatus at 774 Craig street.They have been building two dynamos and two trans formers for station; of these all but one transformer have already been ship- to the wireless scene of operations.ireless, by the way, is ratber a curious term, considering that each of the transformers contains over twenty miles wire.The use of the transformers is to take the current as it comes from dynamo, at & tension of & beggarly two thoumnd volta or so, and raise it to forty or eigbty thousand velts\u2014s tension worth having, in spite of the di- misution in quantity that goes with.it.The process may be compared to the work of a pump run by a waterwheel, which would raise s little water to a great height, with force derived

THE APPARATUS.The os do not requise any spe cial mention.They are rather ordinary 78-kilowatt (that is, 100 horse-power) machines, producing siternating current at 2,000 volts and amperes, This 1» enough to kill several in e row, but is nothing unusual.; The transformer is simply two induc tion coils joined together at both ends, su as to make one continuous one; thu weighs & ton and a half, and the cest jron tank in which it is kept submerged in oil weighs another ton.The core of the transformer is built up ot sheets of thin sheet iron.Around thw à an open space of \u2018half en inch, filled with the insulating oil, then thre primary wire is wound on an insulating tube\u20141,200 turns of it.Outaide of this again is the secondary.This is built up in forty ring sections of 600 turns each, making a total of 24,000 turns, or 20 times as many as in the primary coil.This means that whenever & current is run through the primary ooil, a curreat will be pro- do in the secondary enil of

started, the ordinary lights turned out, and then as the dynamo hered speed, some 350 Inops connect in series li up.hey mere Je candie power, 110 aot mps, and connected as they were, they indicated the presence of 110 x 350\u201488, © the workshop nay erful h soft, ill with a very pow ough 80 u- mination.Then à vire, connected with the secondary coil, was fastened to the end of à stick, aod Mr.Thomson taking the other end of the stick, held the wire end near the floor.There was a blue phosphorescent haze at the end of tue wire; then a red spark leaped between it and the floor, immediately followed by « ribbon-like stream of white a foot long and half an inch wide, which fluttered as if blown by the wind.Then the dynamo was stopped, end the primary coils were connected in multiple to the Lachine current, producing a current of 96,000 volts.One does not monkey with & current like that.The bank of lamps was disconnected, to save them from swift tion; the wi stick was put awey in the corner.A pair of electric light earbons were put ten inches apart; then the current was turned on, and jum between them easily, blowing out the fuse in the connecting switch.Gradually the distance was lengthened to a foot.This the current would not jump ordinarily, but by switching the current on and off quickly a wave of the alternating current was caught just at ite summit, and white fame played between the terminals for the fraction of a second that it took the fuse to melt and blow out.WHAT WILL HE DO WITH THEM?Just what Marconi is going to do with the things is anether question.Mr.Thomson does not think the twelve-inch wpark will be sufficient for communice- tion across the ocean.He thinks the transformer will be used to charge condensers.A condenser ie as nearly as may be ¢ Leyden jar crushed flat.There are rumors auch & one with a hundred plates, hb twelve feet square.This would, Mr.Thomson says, produce à spark \u2018four feet long and as thick as your

night.Then when the to \u2018 ple awake, they are amazed at Bod iog the steeple conquered.The man who makes a success of steeple-climbing must be determined, persistent and i ious.He must solve many a p problem in boisting great bodies sloft.He must know how to fasten a hook over the top of @ sky-scraping chimney.He must have the nerve to paint a steeple that sways like à pendulum at the slender top.He must be able to tear down, build up, gild, peint, place electric wires and do many another task that would be_a problem on the solid earth.are many waye of getting up 8 steeple, and when all others fail the man will tie 8 rope ro it, and then, with 20il on his back, walk round and round itruntil the entire steeple is covered with fope, and he has probably been round it fully three hundred times.But a ateeple is not the most dificult height to climb.Straight, tall chimneys are the hardest of sll.There a man has to work with might and main, to lift himself inch by inch from the ground to the top.Sometimes the top is three hundred feet high.When it is reach- od a hook is placed over the edge, a pulley is made fast, the swinging ir is hauled up and work begins.When the chair is near the top it is easier to work, because the ropes are short; but when they lengthen, as the ground is approached, there is tendency to ewing, and the wind gives impetus.The man\u2019s safety depends upon the hook, and until be has raised himself almost to the top, it is impossible for him to see whether or not the hook bas been properly adjusted.More than once a steepleclimber has seen, when within ten feet of the top, that corrosion of the iron and the collection of woot has so thickened the wall that the hook ia merely balancing on the top, wo that the slightest pull in the wrong direction would drag it off.Aguin, the bricks are often loose at the top, and the hook ia likely to tear them away.One of the natural diffieulties to conquer is the saving of all high ptecples and chimneys, « a steeple point will sway a foot and a half, Venally I ars from seven to nine inches.inti it means resciring lor a t on the Tight side, agi finding it on The Jeft, and when making a dive for it on the left, to see it away hack to the right.Yet in spite of the constant danger, a born steepleclimber exults in his work, and is at bome only when high.above the world, He can stand triumphantly at any height, if he can have two and « half square pnches to bear his weight.HOLMES AND THE SOPHOMORE.Wien Dr.Holmes published his hui orous Yankee poem called \u2018The One Horse Shay,\u2019 a certain sophomore in Harvard College fancied he detected a flaw in the logic of the descon\u2019s plan and wrote to the doctor, kindly pointing out the defect, wouderful shay, it will be remembered, was

field despatches written when he was in command \u2018in South Africa.The communication throws no new light on the operations in the field.Appended thereto is a long list of those marked for

Caoadian Mounted Rifles sustained the beaviest lose of the day.He particularly comments on the gallantry of Lieut.Bruce Carruthers.In conclusion Lord Roberts says he wishes to record here the fact

that Lord Methuen's réverse wae due to the behavior of the bulk of the mounted troops of his command, who offered a feeble and inefficient resistance, and thea left the infantry and the guns to

be provided for out of the Transvaal fund and out of the fit loan raised.The total amount of the compensation to paid to the two colonies will exiced, according to entr mates, £2,000,000 ($10.000,000).The grant of £3,000,000 f3i5.000.00) man tioned in the terns of surrender is not applicable to Cape Colony and Natal.CONTINENTAL OPINION.Berlin, June 4.\u2014The balance is pretty fairly held here between the opinion that tke terms of surrender preclude the pos sibility of a revival of separatist pretensions like those which led to the war and the view that the Toer element in British Boach Africa will cherish a de sire for vengewnce which may one day t in rebellion.¢ Agrarian io which the \u2018Deutach Tngossoita ° wish is doubt father to the thought.when country those

time, in the vpinion of the National Liberal organ, it would betray a want of judgment \u2018which is at presemt the order of the day in desling with English affaire\u2019 if the solution of the South African problem were to be re; \u2018a priori\u2019 as impos eible.\u2018The Rritish have succeeded in Canada in reconciling the French element, aod .\u2026 it is generally forgotten that in Natal the amalgamation o rw and Tiritons bas been mors euccem!u than elsewhere.\u2019 The same journal, which, by the way, waa ope of the first to abandon the,attitude of unfairness and malignity towards Great Britain which has been ail but unirersal in the German pres, entirely differs from most of ite contem- pocaries in its estimate of the resulta of, the war upon the prestige of the DBeitish empire.It observes: \u2018It has, no doubt, takem the British years to carry through that determination which was so tenaciously maintained.But if the annals of military his tory be consulted and à comparison in- wituted with chose campaigns which prevented corresponding difficulties in respect of the extent and character of the theatre of war these researches will by no means warrant an unfavorable opi ion of the British army.The E: have succeeded where the greatest military monarebies have often failed; they have managed to overcome in a hostile «lescri as being of a geographical nature, ore the Transvasl war who would have thought it possible that Bog: land would have able to send a land army\u2014we repeat a land army\u2014of from 200,000 to 250,000 men to the other side of the globe?The English have for two years maintained 252 army of that strength in the interior of Africa without baving any fack of the forces requisite {or maintaining British authority in Indie, in Ireland, in China, or anywhere else.The development of England's might and her position as a great power have come out of the flery ordeal of a mighty war, not, indeed, with the old absolute character of lordship beyond the sess (the meaning of this is to me ne obscure), but nevertheless in imposing Boers strength.\u201d The wellknown writer of the weekly survey in the \u2018Kreus Zeit makes some remarkable confessions this morning.In the first place he attempts some a for the campaign of calumny and slander which bas been waged ia Germany.He says that the pres of other countries was as bad as that of Uermany, though he sdmite that, espe-| thi cially in the German comic pa) bounds of prudent hostility\u2019 ( Gon ha t) were ex: ed.adds: \u2018We are not at all ashamed of th {eslings and sentiments from which that frequently brutal criticism sprang.\u2019 What these \u2018feelings end sentiments\u2019 tow: the British crown, the British empire and the British army and people really were i well known to the readers of the special arti on the subject which were published by the \u201cTimes\u201d But the writer in the \"Kreus Zeit has another to perform.He tries to jot down the items of profit derived by Germany from her \u2018meutral attitude\u2019 during the war.He says thet this attitude \u2018secured for any the auceessful solution of the Samoa question, the establishment of our position in East Asia, and.above all, the extension and the streagtheni of our navy and our mercantile marine.w part of thin enumeration would be a shameless confession of blackmailing actully, corresponded with the facts.Of the Samos bargain England has certainly mo reason to complain, and one is really relieved to hear that any section of Germans are at last ratis- fied with their position in Fast Asia How an \u201cattitude of neutrality\u2019 facili tated the extension of the German na: and mercantile marine is still more a cult to understand, except on \u2018he as sumption that the Anglophobia which id not venture to seek an outlet in intervention found one in the navy bill, observe that a number of journals continue to reproach the Boers for coming to terme.This is surely a most unworthy attitude on the part of those pue y their boastful assis, direct, encoun! an ap, to arms an: then left their alleged protégés in the urch.An interesting summary of the atate of public opinion here is given by the well-informed Berlin co ndent of the \u2018Kolnische Volkmeitung\u2019 in a despatch which appeared in the evening edition of that journal yesterday.After referring to the intennity of the impression creat: hy the publication of the conditions of peace, he describes as empty the Lopes expi by the Pan-German and Anti Semitic papers that the Boers thirty years hence may again revolt.Thirty vears hence South Africa will probably ve several million inhahitants, and the Dutch element may be overwhelmed.He comments further on the coolness of the Liberal press, and notes that one \u2018non- , \u2018the party\u2019 pa; says that as the Boers have abandoned their cause Europe abandons it too.The concluding sentences of his despatch are significant: \u2018In say case, the utterances of the ress do not exactly correspond to the Pectings of the public; it would, indeed, be scarcely possible to write what the public is saying and thinking.The \u201cmsn in the street\u201d may work himself into a passion over issues which have been de cided; a political organ has no reason for similar action, which would, more over, not advance matters in the least The\u2018 criticimm of German policy which one hears among the publie cannot be re produced in the .It gan be of no urther use to the Boera to rant about the rhape their fortune might have taken if Germany had assisted them in such and ruch a manner.The Boer war is at an end, and there Yemains nothing for un te do but to fire aalutes over the dead republics as at a military funeral.\u2019

use of their le guage in schools, are far better off under coul than the Poles under Prusinn rule, Vienna, June 2\u2014The \u2018Journal of State and Political Economy\u2019 publishes what may be connd sa a specimen of in- te igent Austrian opinion oa the war.The writer begins by observing that the war had reully come to an end in 10 with the capitulation of Prinaloo and the occupation Ly the Eaglish of Komati Poort, What followed was merely guerilla warfare which cost much blood sud tresure, but could not possibly reverse the decision which had thus fullen.He contends that the twa real, although involuntary, instigators of the war wers the late Mr, Rhodes and the Emperor Wiliam.The former pie the first impulse by the Raid, which be had planned and whieh was carried out by his friend \u2026 Jameson at ment.The Raid, however, would have remained à mere incident to be forgot: ten withic\u2018a week were it not for the Brnperor, William's telegram to Oom Paul.Those few words addressed by the German Emperor to the sed peasant at ia were the root of the evil.On the one hand, they aroused in England an invincible mistrust of the Trans.veal Government, which was believed to have secret relations with Europe.On the otber, they gave rise to the impres sion among the uneducated Boer pessants that the hour had come to drive the \u201ced- coats into the ses and that all Europe was merely waiting for the signal from South Africa to combine its forces againss England.But even then the Transvaal ing were it not {or the multitude of Eu.ropenn adventurers atiracted by the fold fields, including a large number of tch professional politicians, who, owing to their having a certain amount of lucation, succeeded in securing the real management of affairs.It was not the themselves, but the Dutch officials of the type of Leyde and Kretechmer who brought about the war.Indeeu Kretechbmar hud in the spring of 1809 naively assured the directors of the Trenaveal Railwey in Amsierdam that he hoped the close of the nineteenth cen- would be crowned by the downfall According to the writer, the fact that iv was a carefully-prepared offensive war 3p the part of the Afrikanders is proved, not only by the correspondence ei at Pretoria, but by tbe circum- * at t the Orange Free State.which è bf mal no quarrel with England and Lad madntai friendly relations With the British Government up to Oct.11, declared war without any diplomatic transition, and by the further circumstance that the invading Boer forces in Natal and Cape Colony immediately declared the occupied territury to be annexed.The writer anticipates that the war and ite result will prove a blessing not only to South Africa and to ite native population, but tno La England herself promoting a thorough reorgarization of her army and a reform of her financial system.nder its influence the ides of a closer union between the Mother Country and the colonies has made more pro- than it would otherwise have done ig thirty years, At the present day the most popular men in England are Mr.Chamberlain and Lord Milner, two ypical representatives of Englisi mile class, which accomplishes the task it has set itself with indefatigable perseverance, and for which every reverse is but an incentive to increased effort.TERMS NONE TOO LIBERAL.Mr, Barton, prane minister of the Aus tralian
