London, Aug. 22.--Jeseph M. Chap- ple, editor of the National Magazine, of Wisconsin, enjoys' the distinction of having witnessed the coronation' ser: vice in the abbey under exceptional circumstances. He arrived in London on coronation morning irom America, ana made his way up Whitehall to the police lines around the abbey without permit or ticket. All difficulties were overcome when he presented 'a letter from, Senator Spooner, with this in dorsement at the bottom: 'J. M. Chapple: is a very good fellow, who has done excellent work. (Signed) Theodore Roosevelt." This proved an open sesane into the abbey. Inspector Baird and Sir Ed- ward Bradford 'took "the president at his word, and aiter allowing the Wis consin editor to witness the arrival of the royal procession at the portals of the entrance hall, conducted him into the north transcept and gave him an excellent place, where he coula see the in all their glory and the ceremonies in the theatre and sacrari: um. . peeresses Sydenham High School. : The following pupils of form 1 have been promoted to form 11: Leonard Wellington street.

They Refuse to Talk With Any Representatives of the Press-- Botha Off on a Private Mis- sion. : : The Hague, Aug. 22.--Gen. Louis Botha went to Brussels yesterday afternoon on private business. He and his wife subsequently will go to visit members of their family at Lapanne. Before leaving Gen. Botha and his two colleagues gave a luncheon 'to Messrs. Wessels, Fischer, Wolmerans, Levds, and the owners of the steam- ship Batavia, which brought them from England. Some other persons who participated in the reception giv- en to them on their arrival were also present. Botha, Dewet and Delarey have, since they have heen here, per- sistently, but courteously, refused to give any form of interview to repre- sentatives of the press. It is under- stood that thdy will, on their return to London, endeavor to induce Mr. Chamberlain to grant permits for the return to South Africa of some of the "undesirables" who were banished. Gen. Lucas = Meyer tried to obtain similar concessions but failed. Going Back To London. Brussels, Aug. 22.--Gen: Louis Botha afrived here last evening. There was a huge crowd in waiting at the railway station, who shouted "Long live Bo- tha." The police tried, but in vain, to clear the way for him to get out of the station; finally he had to make his exit through a side door. Then an enormous crowd of his admirers sur- rounded the 'carriage containing his son and himself, and the carriage had house occupied by Mrs. Botha. general refused to be interviewed, but domestic matters, and also to the affairs of the late Gen. Meyer oraer. He and Gens. Dewet and larev will = return to week, London next What Reitz Thinks. Paris, Aug. 22.--A letter, from Mr. Reitz, ex-secretary of state in the Transvaal government, to J. McBride, an Irishman, who held a command in the Boer army during the recent war, is published here. It shows that an ir. reconcilable spirit is still strong am- on the Boers. In the coufse of the let- ter Mr. Reitz says: "It gave me much Plomire to receive your letier.an the Sth inst., and to read what you say about our 'country and your convie- tion, which is also mine, and will con- tinue to he until we get our country back, that the time will shortly come when our countries will be as free as fied meant they should be." The Statement Denied. Amsterdam, Aug. 22. Mr. Debruy- an, secretary of the Boer delegates in Europe, has written to a Harlem newspaper -categorically denying that Mr. Kruger brought to Holland large sums of money, belonging to the two South African republics. THE WOMAN FOUND. Was With Fortin Field. Awg. 22.---The woman who was on the Cove field in company with the prisoner Fortin, who has confessed to having killed Beauchamp in self-defence, has been located and arrested. She is a Mrs. A.

Mrs. Des lauriers admitted that she was the companion of Fortin at the ime the Who in a Quebec, Leapitahists, } eastern | derlaid with fine: cannel, cdbal and' iron | {*Bibby's."' trouble' commenced. - She said that they were both sitting on the grass. when a man yumped on Fortin and commenced oh wh him, and then she got on her feet and ran away and did not what happened after- wards.

New York, - Aug. 2%--While- there is no. direct confirmation of the report that the Archbishop of Canterbury will retire in the autumn, it is genery ally credited by clergymen, cables the Tribune's London correspondent. His infirmity was_so conspicuous at the coronation that there was amazement that he should have under taken to conduct so complex a service. The prime minister will have two of the most 'conspicuous ecclesiastical nonfi- nations at his disposal if the archhis hop follows the dean of Westminster into retirement, -and, as he is a Prek- byterian rather than a Churchman, his selections will be unusually, inter esting. _A CANADIAN PURCHASE. of Cpl Land in Kentucky--There Is Also Ore.

PITH OF THE NEWS, The Very Latest News Culled From All Over The World. W. J. Hill, ex-M.P.P., West York, has assigned.. : y Rain has fallen in Western India in time to save the crops. Miss Bessie Bonehill, 'the, vaudeville actress, died at Portsmouth. Miss Anglin, az Camille, has scored a great success in San Francisco. Mrs. E. Hopkins, nee McGee, of Gloucester township, a bride of a fort- night, died yesterday at her home in Kamloops, B.C. Hail did a lot of damage to crops in several sections of Ontario on Thursday, and many barns were. set on fire by lightning. The current talk of Londen is that the prospectus for the Transvaal loan will be issued in October, and that the amount will be from 150 to 200 mil- lion dollars. Trouble is again in prospect on the Toronto street railway. The manag- ing office is the cause. "There are men there that don't know how to man- age men," says organizer Macdonald. A deputation from the Congregati- onal Union left Liverpool on Thurs- day te inquire into the condition of the Congregational churches in Cana- da. The deputation will travel across the dominion to Vancouver. There is surprise because Germany and Austria have not rejected Rus- sia's proposals in regard to trusts in connection , with' the sugar bounty question. England and France have already rejected the proposition. : The peace congress at The Hague left behind a complete arbitration ma- chine which will be brought into use for the first time next week. to decide a dispute between the United States and Mexico, involving ¢laims amount- ing to $1,800,000. A training school for colored nurses has been established at Charleston, S.C., by a colored woman physician, Dr. Lucy Hughes Brown, a graduate of the Women's Medical college, of Pennsvlvania. The southern people are taking kindly to this innovation. Samuel Seeley, implicated in a bank robbery in New York some years ago and who served his time in prison; re- turned to Brooklyn latély ana intro- auced himself to old friends. After his release he went west and engaged in business and is now worth $1,000,000. The war department at Washington has ordered that the army manoeuvres take place at Fort Riley, Kas., com- mencing on September 20th, and last- ing ten days. There will be 100,000 regulars and militia under canvas on the large reserves there. It will be a big. event. 1 While several Belgians were aitomo- biling in the Rhine province, near Ber- lin. op Wednesday, they ran over and killed an old man and two children. The people became so enraged that they attacked the party and would have lynched them only that the po- lice came to their rescue. The White Star steamer Celric.is un-_ favorably contrasted with the great liner which Germany launched ten days ago. The Kaiser Wilhehn 11 is not. so large as the Celrie, hut she is incomparably faster, her speed being twenty-four knots, against the White Star boat's 'modest sixteen or seven- teen. The report that the managers of the world's fair-at- St. Louis, Eropose to buy the Washington - ancestral home, near Banbury, and to tra splant it to the grounds .of the exhibition, is re- | garded with feelings of dismay in Lon- don. The house itself, will not be spe- cially missed as it, is not a shrine of English pilgrimage but, as the Lon- don Morning Post points 'out, the de- sire for 'ancestral homes is contagi- ous. MADE A PROPOSITION. But its Purport Cannot Be Learned. : Hamilton, Ont., Aug. 22.--A confer- ence between Traction Manager Green and the executive of the Street Rail- way Men's Union, a proposition was submitted by the latter with a view to. settling the trouble between the men and the street railway. Neither the men nor the company's officials will make known the nature of the proposition ME but, it is under- stood, that it includes a modified ag- resment of submission to arbitration. If "the proposition ig not favorably dealt with by the company, there is avery indication=that a general strike will be ordered. Mx. Dilworth, an of- ficer of the International Street \Rail- way Men's Union is in the city. WHAT PREMIERS SAY. In Regard to Proposed Fast At- lantic Service. Quebec, Aug. 22. --Hon. G: R.

Boulanger, and by him to the department, mounted on proper car- riages, brightened up and placed in front of the militia headquarters on Parliament hill. The guns were taken at the capture of Tien-Isin, ana have a remarkable history. An appropriate and "explanatory inscription will be written on each of them. The 'executive of the D.R.A. has de- cided to change the regulations for the McDougall cup: The position for shooting at the 200 yards- range was cither kneeling or standing; this has been changed to any position with head to the target. The American team to shoot for the Palma trophy arrives here on the forenoon of September 11th. Sverim Bryngolisson, an lander, who was 'instrumental in in- ducing some four or five hunared ' of his countrymen to come to the Cana- dian North-West as scttlers last year, has gone back to his native country again this season to use his best en- deavors for Canada again. The Ice- landers have proven good settlers, and are pleased with the Canadian North- West. Owing to the increase in the price of anthracite coal and the lack of any prospect for its reduction, the Otta- wa Gas company has decided to in- crease the rate for gas from $1 to $I .- 10 per cubic .foot. This rate will be maintained in accordance with the price of coal until the cessation of hostilities at the mines. Nothing is known in official circles respecting any proposition to settle 30,000 Pennsylvania miners in th North-west. The tenders for army, supplies in South Africa must he in by October Ist, and the time is too short to al- low Canadian firms to make bids. Ice. SHOCKING CONDITION. The Troopers Were Hurried Off to Sea. ; N.S.W., Aug (22.--Ap 'en- quiry into the deaths by overcrowd- ing on the army transport Drayton Grange, which brought: two "thousand voltinteers from Natal, revealed a shocking. condition of affairs during the voyage. Col. P. Lyster, in com- 'mand of the troops, said they. sailed four hours after embarkation. instead of the regulation twenty-four hous, and that this made it Troi make a protest. Other witnesses said the crowding of the boat was aggra- vatel By a ton of putrid cabbage in the hold, which caused nausea. The stuff was finally thrown overboard. Regimental liquor was bad and ~ this encouraged illicit selling of intoxi- cants. There was much drunkenness aboard. There were 120 stowaways on the ship. Since the arrival of the Drayton Grange fourteen troopers have died. A telegram from Wellington says twen- ty men, who came on the transport Britannic have died from similar caus- es since they arrived in New Zealand. rr ---- COAL WILL BE PLENTIFUL. Sydney, And Prices Not Higher Than Last Year. York, Aug. -22.--This sfate- ment made by. W. H. Truesdale, president--of - the Delaware, Lackawa- na and Western, one of the greatest anthracite coal roads in Pennsylvania, and comes as welcome news : "Il think work at the mines will be resumed in time to produce plenty of coal for the fall*demand. Many of the workmen want to come back to work now, and they will return just as soon as they feel they will be thoroughly protected. It has been decided by the anthracite producers not to advance the price of coal when it is rushed to market." : "The coal roads have decided to sell coal gt the same prices which prevail- ed a year ago. Priges vary according to-_the month in the scale of prices, which have been in vogue for 'come time past. Whatéver price should pre- vail, according to. this scale, when the strike ends, that price will be charged. ; Mr. Truesdale added that there was no foundation to the rumor that the anthracite coal operators will make New 18 de¥ito end the strike.

The Advance Guard Has Reached Winnipeg. Winnipeg, Aug. 22.--The advance contingent of the harvesters' excur- sions arrived here yesterday, by the Canadian Pacific express which was in two. sections. There were about "350 all young men. They came from the lower provinces; most of them leit for points in the west last evening. De- legates representing about one-third of the farmers in the province, met in the provincial immigration offices here last evening, and resolved that not more than $40 a month or $1.75 a day would be paid to harvesters. Grain rates in Minnesota and Dakotas have been reduced. : The Anglican synod closed its ses" sion last night. It was decidéd to issue an _appeal for men. and means to" extend the gospel through the wide arcas of recent settlements. A greet- ing was sent to the king, also to the primate. "The next 'meeting will be held at Calgary. A despatch from Rosthorn reports two fatal ~ accidents, caused by light- ning, The first in the Fish Creek dis- trict, where three Galician settlers were instantly killed, and the other causing the death of a young Mennon- ite near Hague. : a The weather for harvesting continues to be most favorable. The visiting English journalists will not reach Winnipeg "until late this afternoon,. their train being' some hours late. They thoroughly investi- gated Port Arthur and Fort William, and were greatly surprised and pleas- ed at what they saw. The elevator system seemed to be especially inter- esting' and they made many inquiries regarding the handling of grain. -- the POLICY IS REPUDIATED. Dr. J. W. Smartt Succeeds as Party Leader. London, Aug. 22.--A dispatch to the Exchange Telegram company from Cape Town, says : "The progressive party: has elected Dr. J. W. Smartt to be its leader, re- pudiating. Sir J. Gordon Sprigg (the, premier). a This probably means that the sus- pensionist wing of the progressive party has chosen as its leader Dr. Smartt (who was commissioner of public works in Sprigg's ministry un- til May last, when he resigned, owing to the agitation for the suspension of the colony's constitution). DEVOTION TO DUTY. Captain is Presented With Silver Vase. Aug. 22.--The marine board, on behalf of the government, has presented ('apt.
