On Thursday erenlng, Mrs. Jcxhn Dcvers, residing nt Baltimore Lane, was struck by a stone thrown by Edward McGlnty and so baitly Injured It Is feared that death will result. The circumstances are most peculiar. McGlnty, a youth of about 17 years, was carrying n pall I interest 5 eg Career EogHamidPs Personal History, Characteristics and In fluence Did Her Own Wooing Victoria's Notable Reign. On June 21, Victoria, Queen of Great Brltian and Ireland nnd Empress of In dia, will have reigned sixty years. Only two British sovereigns, as tho Sun points out, have had reigns approach ing hers In length ueorpa III., her grandfather, whoso reign, commonly computed at sixty years, lacked nlno months of that period and Henry III., who reigned llfty-slx years. In the his tory of Europe there Is recorded only one longer reign, that of Louis XIV., who nominally lelgned seventy-two years. She has outlived all the peers that held their titles when she ascend ed the throne In 1837, except the Earl of Darnley, who was then 10 years old, and Earl Nelson, who was 14. Mr. Glad stone is one of the half dozen surviv ing members of parliament who sat In that year. She has Been five Dukes of Norfolk succeed each other, and six Archbishops of York, and has outlived every Duke und Duchess and every Marquis and Marchioness who bore the title In 1837. She has seen France suc cessively governed by one King, one Emperor, and six Presidents, and she has seen seventeen Presidents In ofllec In the United States. The story of her life up to the time of her marriage contains episodes per haps not generally known which are more Interesting In some respects than more familiar subsequent events. When she was born, In Kensington Pa lace on May 24, 1819, there seemed no great probability that Victoria would ever become Queen of England. Her father, the Duke of Kent, was the fourth son of George III. The second son, the Duke of York, was still alive, and the third son, the Duke of Clarence, who succeeded George IV,, had a daughter and wns considered liable to havi other children, as his wlfo was still young. This daughter died In In fancy, and the death of the Duke of York In 1827 without children made Victoria the presumptive successor of William IV. Her nearness to the throne was first made known to her when she was about 12 years old by showing her tho royal genealogical tab le. She was warned at the same time that her uncle, William IV., might yet have an heir. In the proclamation of her accession to tho throne six years later this contingency was provided for by a clause In which the rights of a posthumous child to William IV. were protected. BAPTIZED. The Queen was -baptized Alexandrlna Victoria. She was so designated In the accession proclamation and contempor aneous state papers, but her signing herself simply Victoria caused the oth er name to be dropped almost imme diately. The name of Alexandrlna, af ter one of her sponsors, the Emperor Alexander of Russia, was given her by her uncle, George IV., then Prince Re gent, She was named Vlctoila after her mother. Sho was the first member of the En glish royal family to be vacclnnted. No end of stories are told of her child hood which Illustrate goodness of heart, If not brilliancy. When told that her succession to the throne would be boned If her Aunt Adelaide, William IV.'s wife, had children, she said: "If so I would not be dlssappolnted, for I know by the love Aunt Adelaide bears me how fond she Is of children." Al though proved by her after life not to be brilliant, the Queen Is represented as quite an Infant phenomenon when six yenia old. She Is said to have sp-ik-en French as well as German and En glish, the tongues of her mother nnd father, to have some knowledge of It alian, and to have been able to read Virgil and Horace with ease. She had also begun Greek and knew something of music and mathematics, as well as of drawing. BECOME QUEEN. On the Duke of Clarence becoming King in 1830 the contingency of Vie toria's accesson to the throne before she was eighteen, the epoch of her ma jority, was provided for by tho estab lishment of a regency, with her'mother as regent, assisted by a council drawn from tho royal family and the Minis ters of state. The sum of 10,000 a year was then voted for the Princess's maintenance, in addition to an annual grant of 6,000 made when she was four years old. Victoria was less than a month more than 18 years of, age when the death of her uncle made her Queen. William IV, died shortly after 2 a. in. on June 20. 1837, at Windsor. The archbishop of Canterbury (Dr. Howley) and the Lord Chamberlain (Marquis Conyngham) set out about twenty minutes later for Kensington to Inform Victoria, of the event.

Her death Is expected. Quieee, which still stands at the west of Ken sington Gardens, at 5 o'clock. They had difficulty In arousing the porter, and It was some time before they could persuade any one to awaken Victoria, It was not until they said, "We are come on business of state to the Queen, and even her sleep must give way to that," that they were admitted. She appeared shortly with a robe thrown over her night dress, her hair hanging over her shoulders and her nnic feet In slippers. On being lnf f her accession to the throne i d the prayers of the archbishop In nor behalf and they knelt down together. Her first Privy council was held at Kensington Palace on tho following morning. Lord Melbourne had to coach her as to what to do after first being coached by Grevllle, who de scribes the scene. When, after she had read the speech prepared for her, her two old uncles, the Duke of Cumber land and the Duke of Sussex, knelt be fore her to swear allegiance and kiss her hand, she blushed at the Incon gruity of their attitude, and, rising from her chair, kissed them both. She was proclaimed from St. James's Pa lace later In the day. Her coronation did not take place until June 28. 1S3S. After she became Queen she sang popular airs to her guests, accompanied by her mother on the piano. She Is de scribed as being G feet 2 nches high with blue eyes nnd fair hair. Victoria met Prince Albert, who was her first cousin, being a son of the Duke of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfielo, on his visiting England when she was 17. In the spring of 1839 she sent him her portrait, and when he visited Windsor with his brother In the following au tumn she Is said to have asked him how he liked England, and on his re plying In the nlllrmatlve, she said It de pended on him to make It his home. This Is only n story. At the time she said frankly that she proposed to him. After he came in from hunting on Oct. 15 she sent for him. When he answered the summons she told him why. She spoke of it afterward as a "nervous thing" to do but It was apparently a love match on both sides. The wedding took place on Feb. 10, 1S40, In the chapel royal of St. James's Palace. The Queen's first child, the present Dowa ger Empress of Germany, was born on Nov. 21 at Buckingham Palace. VICTORIA'S INFLUENCE. Says a writer in the Providence Jour nal: The Idea that the Queen has nev er exercised great personal Influence upon the actions of the British govern ment is disproved by the record made by Sir Theodore Martin of the labors on behalf of peace by both Her Ma jesty and the Prince Consort In tho Trent affair In 1861. Prince Albert was at the time In a very low condition In fact, the seeds of the disease that subsequently carried him on" had al ready been sown. The excitement In England at the time was very great. Sir Theodore says: "Tho Incident was of a character so serious and produced a feeling of Indignation throughout the Kingdom so general that Its effect was to add anxiety to the depression which had already become one of the most distressing phases of the Prince's Ill ness. Most Important, then, was the part which ho and the Queen played in guiding the action of the government on this occasion." Lord Palmerston, the foreign secre tary, fiercely urged that the English government should demand Instant re palatlon and redress. The prime min ister wrote to tho Queen Nov. 29, 1861: "The general outline and tenor which appears to meet tho opinions of the cabinet would be that the Washington government should be told that what has been done Is a violation of Interna tional law and of the rights of Great Britain, and what Your Majesty's gov ernment trust that act be disavowed and the prisoners set free and restored to British protection, nnd that Lord Lyons should be instructed that If this demand is refused he should retire from the United States. Palmerston would have been de lighted to have mixed In the war In favor of the Confederate States, and In this case Queen Victoria and her hus band used their Influence very cautious, ly in favor of peace. Lord John Rus sell, tho prime minister, forwarded to the Queen the drafts .of vdrious dis patches that were to bo sent to Lord Lyons. These reached Windsor Castle on the evening of Nov. 30, and were at once given to the prince. He had a sleepless night over them. "In the morn," the Queen says In her diary, "he could eat no breakfast and looked very wretched. But still he waa well enough on getting up to make a draft for me to write to Lord Jphn Russell In correction of his draft of Lord Ly ons, sent to mo yesterday, which neith er Albert nor I approved of." FOR PEACE. The facsimile of tho prince's note his last political memorandum Is pub llshed In Sir Theodore Martin's book, and Is Interesting as "showing by the corrections In the Queen's hands how the minds of both were continually brought to bear upon tho subjects with which they dwelt." Commenting on this, Sir Theodore Martin says: "Tho suggestions here mado at once commended themselveB to Lord John Russell, 'Lord Palmers ton thought them excellent,' are Lord Granville's words, In a letter next day to the prince, which had to be read to him by the Queen. He was much grat ified by the good results of his observa tions, which led to the removal from tho dispatch of everything which would Irritate a proud and sensitive nation, at the same time that It offered to them an opportunity of receding hon orably from tho position In which they had been placed by the Indiscreet act of a too zealous navy captain. Tho dispatch was, In fact, remodelled upon the lines Indicated by the prince, Its language being little moro than his own cast Into olllclal form. Other con- In determining tho decision of the United States government. But they would probably liavo failed to sway It Into compliance with the British de mands, for the temperate und concilia tory tone to which, thanks to the prince, the views of the government had been conveyed. Mr. Seward told Lord Lyons, before the copy of the dispatch was placed In his hands, that every thing depended 'upon the wording of It,' and begged, as a personal favor, to bo allowed to read It before It was com municated to him officially. In com pliance with this request, It was sent to him under a cover marked 'Private and Confidential.' The effect was In stantaneous. 'Almost Immediately af terwards,' Lord Lyons says In a private dispatch to Lord John RURsell (Dec. 19, 1861), 'he came here. He told me ho was pleased to find that the dispatch was courteous and friendly not dic tatorial nor menacing.' "The rest Is known. Mr. Seward's dispatch reached London Jan. 9, 1862, and was communicated the-sume day to the Queen, who w'as then at Os borne. In her reply Her Majesty said: "Lord Palmerston cannot but look on this peaceful Issue of the American quarrel as greatly owing to her be loved prince, who wrote tho observa tions upon the draft to Lord Lyons, In which Lord Palmerston so entirely con curred," It was the last thing he ever wrote. The Prince Consort died on the night of Saturday, the 14th of December. OTHER INSTANCES. Nor was this the only occasion during the civil war on which Queen Victoria displayed her warm feelings of friend ship towards the United States, and It was solely owing to her unseen but potent Influence that the Englsh na tion was prevented from showilng Its Southern partisanship In a too offen sive manner. When Lincoln was struck down by the nssassln's hand herB was the first message of sympathy and sorrow which reached the country from Europe, the condolence being addressed from "a widow to a widow." Her womanly sympathy was express ed In a similar manner when President Garfield was laid low, and on the oc casion of President Cleveland's mar riage her congratulations were among the first to reach the bride. It may also be remembered that In writing the autograph letter In re sponse to President Buchanan's Invit ation to the Prince of Wales to visit Washington iin 1860 she expressed her pleeasure at the Prince of Wales being nble to testify In person the warm feelings of respect entertained by the English royal family "for the chief magistrate of a great and friendly state and kindred nation." AN EVENTFUL REIGN. The following Is a brief mention of some of the principal events of Queen Victoria's reign: Her coronation took place June 28, 1838, and a few months later the war was begun with China, which ended with tho opening up of the Celestial Empire to foreign trade. In 1810 Rowland mil's penny postage sys tem was Inaugurated. The same year witnessed her marriage with Prince Al bert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, her first cousin, who was naturalized prior to the union. The- first attempt on Her Majesty's life was made a few months afterwards by William Oxford. Tho Prince of Wales was born In the follow ing year, 1841. In 1815 Sir Robert Peel's Income tax and new commercial tariff came Into force, by which some 1100 ar ticles of merchandise were freed of Im port duty. In 1846 the Corn laws were repealed and bread placed within the reach of the poor. The first great In ternational exhibition was opened In 1851 by Her Majesty with great pomp and ceremony. In 1854 war was declared against Rus sia which ended In the fall of Sebas topol In 1855. Hardly had peace been procllamed when war was declared with Persia and again with China, while u year later the great Indian mutiny broke out, one of the greatest calami ties of her reign. As soon as it had been quelled tho charter by which the East India Trading company had held the great Asiatic dependency for over two centuries, was cancelled, and India then became an Integral portion of the Brltsh Empire, under the direct rule of the Crown. In 1861 the difficulty about the Trent affair was on the eve of bringing on a war between the United States and Great Britain, but the ca lamity was averted by the personal In tervention of the Queen. In December, 1861, the Prince Consort died of typhoid fever, - In 1879 the Zulu wnr occupied the pub lic mind and developed Into a series of conflicts In South Africa, In one of which the Prince Imperial of France was killed In ambush by the natives. In 1882 the Egyptian campaign was be gun, Involving the occupation of the Nile Delta by the British troops. The year 1S86 added Burmah to the Queen's dominions. The Queen has outlived most of the notable statesmen and prominent men of her reign. Among their number may be mentioned Sir Robert Peel, the Duke of Wellington, Lord Derby, Lord Pal merston, Lord Beaconsfleld, Lord Aber deen, Lord Clarendon, Lord John Rus sell, Sir Stafford Northcote, Lord Llnd hurst, Charles Dickens, Thackeray, Faraday, Darwin, Cobden and a host of others. OT THU WRONG .MAN. Not the Prisoner Hut the Judg Whom Shu i:iied. Old Mr. and Mrs. Shuman, from Bryan, went to town, and In going to the hotel for dinner saw a crowd around the Justice's court, says the At lanta Constitution. The old couple, with pardonable curiosity, Inquired the cause of the gathering. They were In formed that a man was on trial for beating his wife. Edging their way through the bystanders to get a look at the prisoner the old lady whispered to her husband; "What a murderous looking creature the prisoner Is! I'd be afraid to get near him." "Hush!" warned her husband, "That Isn't the prisoner; ho hasn't been brought In yet." "It isn't? Who Is it, then?" "It's the Judge!" lliiftulo Live Stock. Hast Buffalo, N. Y June 19.

Wc confess to making a mistake, for we've never had livelier selling in any department than has been the case with these rugs at just fifty cents on'the dollar. True, they arc an unpre cedented bargain bargains that could not be duplicated, were it not that Kerr, Son & Ca's stock was bought at ShcrifFs Sale at less than half price. The same rcnuirks, of course, apply to our high grade Carpet stock, from which we can' sell you the best Hody Urussels Carpet made as low as 50 cents per yard, but it's Smyrna Rugs we're talking today, and if you're interested, pa-don us for saying that it will be fo your advantage to call, for HALF PRICE OPPORTUNITIES Don't come often in that line, and the full ratine of sizes won't hold out much Ionijer. Three Illustrations in values will suffice: They represent the first quality of Smyrna Kugs made: Size 18x30 in., that usually brings $1.75, sells foi 87 cents.
