Mrs. I.yon's letter, however, makes

TIIK KIXG'S COnONATIOX.
Yesterday Was the Opening Day of
tho Festivities Many Americans
Present.
Ascot Heath, England, June 30.
Never has 4scot looked better than
on this opening day of the corona
tion meeting. The weather is rather i
uncertain, but not sufficient so to ef
fect the attendance, the greatest in
years. The royal enclosure, club and
other stands and lawns were crowded
with fashionably - attired persons,
while along the rails about the course
hundreds of motor cars and carriages
formed a solid line.
King George and Queen Mary, with
members of their house party at
Windsor came in semi-state in eight
landaus, each drawn by four bays,
while three landaus, drawn by pairs,
carried their suites. Accompanied
by mounted equerries the procession
moved slowly from Windsor Castle
to Ascot Heath, thence along the
course to the royal enclosure, amid
cheering and waving of handerchiefs.
U is a strict rule of their majesties
that the royal enclosure must not be
crowded. Lord Chamberlain and the
Karl of Shaftesberry refused thou
sands of applications for admission to
the coveted places.
Scores of prominent American re
ceived invitations, among them Am
bassador Reid, Mrs. Reid, and the
embassy staff, with their wives; John
Hays Hammond, special United
States Ambassador to the coronation,
Mrs. Hammond and their children;
Charles P. Taft, Mrs. Taft, and many
othersfl.

China Will Demand Six Million In
demnity From Mexico.
Mexico City, June 9. An indem
nity of $6,000,000 gold will be de
manded of Mexico by the Chinese
Government for the slaughter of 303
Chinese sujects, and the destruction
of their property in Torreron, it was
asserted to-day. The demand will be
backed by a cruiser which is already
on the way to Mexican West Coast
ports.
The investigators returned to-day
from Torreron, and placed in the
hands of Shung Hai Sun, of the Chin
ese legation, a detailed report of the
carnage. This report shows that
many of the Chinese were slain in a
most inhuman manner and that be
sides a Chinese bank and club-house,
eighty-nine places of business were
sacked.
In addition to the indemnity, an
apology for insult to the Chinese flag
will be demanded; also that aid be
extended to destitute families of the
victims, that the guilty bo punished
and the constitutional guarantees of
protection to Chinese lives and prop
erty be made effective.
Horse, Dray-Wagon and Driver Fall
Into Well Twenty-Five Feet Deep;
and Neither Suffers Injury.
A special from Waxhaw to Fri
day's Charlotte Observer says:
"That a horse weighing 1,300
pounds and hitched to a dray-wagon
could fall into a well twenty-five
feet deep and get out without being
hurt, seems hardly creditable, but
this is exactly the exciting incident
that happened here a few days ago,
wrhen the drayman for Rodman &
Brown drove the dray-horse into dry
well twenty-five feet or more in
depth. It was at first thought the
horse would , be killed, as the well
had a number of old side harrow
teeth and other broken up farm im
plements in" the bottom, but after an
hour and a Jjalf of hard work the
horse was led triumphantly out amid
the cheers of the crowd.
'The drayman evidently felt re
sponsible for the accident, for he
stayed in the well with the horse
the whole time. The horse was not
hurt anywhere save one little scratch
between the fore-legs. In two hours
he was hitched to the wagon again,
placidly making nis rounds deliver
ing goods."
Secured Ten Thousand Damages for
One Hog.
Atlanta, Ga., June 9. Ten thou
sand dollars was the value placed on
a hog by a jury in the Superior Court
here to-day in the case of J. D. De
bow, of Nashville, Tenn., against the
Vicksburg, Shreveport and Pacific
Railroad. The hog in question was
"Premier Longfellow's Rival," a
pedigreed porker, who was killed in
a railroad accident and on which Mr.
Debow had set a valuation of $20,
000. The animal was nine feet long,
three feet high, and weighed more
than 1,000 pounds.
Washington Pays Tribute to the
Southern Dead.
Washington, D. C, June 11. The
annual tribute of flowers and eulogy
was paid to-day to the soldier dead
of the South in Washington National
Cemetery. With all its historic and
sentimental associations as the home
of General Robert E. Lee", Comman
der of the Confederate forces, the
National Cemetery was dedicated for
the day to the memory of the defend
ers of the Southern cause.
Among the floral offerings was a
wreath from the President of a re
united country and the whole Confed
erate section with Its 264 graves was
covered with a wealth of blooms. De
spite the heat, several thousand peo
ple attended the ceremonies.
Senator Taylor, of Tennessee, de
livered an eloquent eulogy on the sol
diers of the Confederacy. A feature
was the unveiling of a "living South
ern cross, formed by children of
members of Confederate organiza

Free Fight at a Festival One Killed.
Maxton, N. C, June 13. Saturday!
night at a negro festival on Col. F. F.
McRae's plantation, ten miles south
of Maxton, "Buck" McRae was shot
in the abdomen and instantly killed
by some one of half a dozen or more
participants in a free-for-all fight re
sulting from a combination of causes
base-ball, whiskey, etc.
The fatal shot was from a shot
gun, although there were numerous
small arms freely used, something
like twenty-five shots or more being
fired in all, and at so short range,
the wonder is that there were not
more killed.
A Brutal Murder in Surry County.
Mount Airy, N. C, June 12.
News has reached the city that late
Saturday evening, near the city and
only a few yards from the Virginia
and North Carolina State line, while
two brothers named Inscore were
driving along the road on their way
home from Mount Airy, some one in
ambush fired and instantly killed
one of the men.
It is alleged that a man named
Lynch and another named Green
wood were seen together in the brush
where the tragedy occurred and it is
reported that one of them fired the
fatal shot.
The wounded man lived only three
minutes. He had a dispute recently
with Lynch, and it is thought this
was the cause of the shooting.
The dead man had been in town
here trading and had started home,
not thinking of the awful fate that
awaited him on the way.
Officers are hunting for the mur
derer or murderers. The deceased
was named John Inscore, and was
quite a young man.
North Carolina Leads in the Mica In
dustry. (United States Geological Survey
Bulletin.)
The total value of the mica pro
duced in the United States in 1910,
according to an advance chapter
from "Mineral Resources of the Unit
ed States, 1910,' by Douglas B. Ster
rett, just issued by the United States
Geological Survey, amounted to
337,097, exceeding by $56,568 the
value of the production of 1909, and
was greater than In any other year
except 1907, when It amounted to
$392,111.
Mica occurs in rough crystals and
blocks, which range in size from a
small fraction of an inch to several
feet across. A crystal found In the
Iotla Bridge kaolin and mica mine
in Macon County, North Carolina, in
1907, measured about - 29x36 inches
arcoss and was four feet thick. The
rough blocks as obtained from the
mines generally yield only a small
percentage of trimmed sheet mica, 10
per cent being a very high yield; the
rest of the product is suitable only
for grinding.
