Ancient Ceremonies of Procla
mation Carried Out in Cap
ital of the Empire
LONDONERS CHEER OEORGE V.
Is Mindful of People's Welfare —Asks
that Theatres Be Reopened to Pre
vent Many from Being Thrown Out
of Work.
London, May 17.— King George V.
was proclaimed in all parts of the
British Empire. London took a sud
den plunge into mediaeval tradition
when George V.was proclaimed with
ancient ceremonial. No detail of her
aldry or coloring was neglected. Trum
peters in gold lace, heralds in gorgeous
tabards, the Earl Marshal with his
plumes and garter, the king at arms
and pursuivants with splendor galore,
made a picturesque group at St.
James's Palace, and when the pro
clamation had been read in a clear
voice which the great assemblage
could hear, the band of the Coldstream
Guards played the national anthem
and the boom of guns came from the
park.
It was a well ordered military
pageant, with seven thousand troop
ers keeping the line for the royal car
riages to the Mansion House, but the
unrehearsed incidents had more hu
man interest than the mediaeval mum
mery. One was the group of the royal
children in plain sight on the terrace
of Marlborough House and saluting
luting like soldiers, with Lord Kitch
ener behind them. Another was the
singing of the national autliem by the
thousands of spectators when the un
known leader, with a powerful voice,
had started the opening bars alone.
The calvalcade, under the escort of
the Life Guards, halted at Charing
Cross for a second reading of the
proclamation by another herald, and
at Temple liar for the traditional chal
lenge from the city trumpeters and the
Lord Mayor and the removal of the
scarlet silken cord. There was a
final ceremony at the Mansion House,
with the singing of the national an
them.
Queen Mary was not proclaimed, al
though, like Queen Alexandra, stie was
destined to be crowned at Westmin
ster Abbey by the Archbishop of York.
The Lord Chamberlain has receiv
ed orders from King George to the ef
fect that in view of the number of
people who would be thrown out of
work by the prolonged closing of the
theatres it is his Majesty's wish that
the theatres should be opened except
011 the day of his father's funeral.
Furthermore King George made it
known that he wished the Ascot races
to be held as usual. The royal en
closure will be open as is customary,
with the exception of the royal pa
vilion.
J. W. VAN CLEAVE DEAD.
Leader of Fight Against Boycott Ex
pires from Heart Disease.
St. Louis, May 17. James W. Van
Cleave, former president of the Na
tional Association of Manufacturers,
died from heart disease at his home
here.
James Wallace Van Cleave was
the central tigure in a long legal
struggle with labor unions. It
was as a result of a boycott
against his company, the Buck's
Stove and Kange Company, of St.
Louis, that Samuel Gompers, John
Mitchell and William Morrison, presi
dent and secretary of the American
Federation of Labor, were sentenced
to jail for contempt of court for vio
lating an injunction secured from the
Supreme Court by Mr. Van Cleave's
company.
Born in Marion County, Ky., on
July 15, 1849, young Van Cleave joined
the Confederate ariny when only thir
teen years of age.
IN THE COMET'S TAIL.
Astronomers Agree the Earth Will
Not Suffer in Passage.
Washington, May 17. Astronomers
agree in regard to the tall of lialley's
comet that it will have no effect upon
animal or vegetable life, perhaps no
perceptible effect of any kind; but
there may be meteoric and electrical
manifestations. It is pointed out that
the comet's tail Is so tenuous that it
probably does not contain more than
a single solid particle or gaseous mole
cule to the cubic yard.
The Yerkes Observatory has ar
ranged with the Aero Clubs of Milwau
kee and St. Louis for observations
from balloons In case of cloudy weath
er.
Recent estimates have put the
length of the tail at 20,000,000 to 46,-
000,000 miles. To reach the earth It
must exceed 15,000,000.
Comet May Do the Unexpected.
Paris, May 16. Maurice Hamy of
the Paris Observatory reports that the
length of the tall of Halley's comet
has Increased from five to ten degrees
In three days.

West Africa ir; known to all naviga
tors for its few harbors and its heavy
surf, which at certain seasons rages
like a battle, defying the white man
Vvho would approach its shores. The
author of"The Jungle Folk of Africa," j
Mr. R. If. .Million, tells of a success- j
ful, and to the observers an amusing
effort lo reach shore at a point where 1
the surf did not seem to be impossible, j
One day, when the beach seemed
much better than usual, the captain |
and the ship's surgeon ventured j
ashore. The captain afterward nar
rated the adventure of their landing 1
to a small but enthusiastic audience.
He said that after waiting outside the !
surf half an hour the head man sud
denly gave the order, and in a mo
ment they were in the breakers, rid
ing on the top of one of them, and
speeding toward the shore at the rate
of "seventy miles an hour."
The captain was in the bow of the
boat, well braced and cushioned. But
when the boat struck the beach with
the force of a railway collision, the
doctor was thrown violently over two
thwarts into the captain's bosom,
whom he clasped about the neck with
a steel-like grip.
The next moment another breaker
picked the boat up and hurled it upon
the beach, throwing both captain and
doctor to a perfectly safe distance,
where they sprawled upon the sand.
The doctor, still hugtrn:: the captain's
neck, and very much frightened, ex
claimed:
"O captain, dear captain, is there
anybody killed but you 'ind me?"

Department of Agriculture Trying to
Interest Farmers in Industry.
Uncle Sum is sending out a circular
to show farmers how they can raise
gourds and make pipes for smokers at
a profit. The gourds do not grow as
rapidly as the gourds of ancient times,
but it is said they can be produced
in almost any part of this country
from seed that is supplied by the gov
eminent, with the directions for
planting and for making pipes.
In South Africa the gourd is called
the calabash. Boers made pipes of
the gourds for many years, but the
world took little notice until after the
Boer war, when the English began to
import them. I.ater the demand
spread to the United States, and now
; there is a large market for the pipes
at $8 to sl2 each, according to tho
circular of the Department of Agricul
ture.
The Boers tried to monopolize the
seed of the gourd, but a large supply
has been secured, and there is pros
pect that the crop will become gen
eral. It is asserted that the gourd pipes
color like meerschaum and are highly
appreciated by smokers. As no two
gourds are exactly alike, each smok
er has a pipe of special pattern, and
as the sizes vary so much the work of
preparing them is done by hand in
stead of machinery
