Sen ateOther Late News Items, There has been quite general ap prehension at the condition of Eng land new King, and on Monday his condition became so serious that an operation became absolutely necessary, and notice was at once issued that the coronation cerem onies, which were to occur to-day, were indefinitely postponed. Prep arations for this event were more elaborate than any other in modern history, and there is corresponding disappointment, aside from the genuine anxiety for the King him self. It is thought the coronation will be postponed for at least three months, and that a more simple cer emony will then be made, if the King's health permits. There is an old prophecy that Edward would rule but never be crowned. The Appalachian park bill, which North Carolina is largely interested in, passed the Senate Tuesday; with some amendments, it having previously passed the House. It propides for the pur chase ot a large mountain territory, "HARP OF A THOW SAND STRINGS." BillArp RerivesThis Humorous Sermon ' of Long Ago Bill Arp in Atlanta Constitution. I have had an occasional request to reproduce an d save from obli vion a sermon that went the round of the southern press some fifty years ago and was known as the xiarp 01 a loousauu omug Not long ago I quoted a paragraph from it and a friend writes me from East Feliciana, La., and says that the author of that, quaint old sermon lived and died in that narkh and his daughters and grandchildren live there now and are his near neighbors. Strange to sav the author was a minister of the gospel, sober, serious, solemn and devoted to his calling, and for a long time it was not known that the humorous writiners over the signature of 'Zedekiah the Scribe came from his gifted pen. This sermon was said to have been preached at Port Hudson, where the amatuer divine had "tied up" for the double purpose of observing the Sabbath and tell ing whiskey.

" Rev.. Tommy Dixon's Home. Philadelphia Times. - iaElmineton." the home of the Rev Thomas Dixon, Jr., the author of "Th Leonard's SdoIs is one of the most beautiful estates . in Vir ginia. It occupies a commanding nraition on North River, an i arm of Molbiack Bav. in Gloucester! county and though "now comDrisinff 500 acres, was originally a crown grant of 2.000 acres from -the Kine of England to the Whiting family. The bouse is beautifully eituated on a peninsula which is almost entirely surrounded by; water. On the tpacious l- lawn are thirty-seven varieties pf trees, many of them be ing giant oaks and elms, holly, cedar, magnolia and nine. There is a water front of one and one-half miles, one-half mile being 00 the North river arm of the bay, and one mile on Elmington creek, which winds gracefully around the house. The house is a masive brick structure of Colonial style, with a noble white pillar porch from which can be seen, with in a radius of two miles, twelve, or fifteen : interesting old home steads. It was erected 57 years Ago on the site of the original structure, which dated to 1600 It is three and one-half stories high and contains 36 rooms. The wall are three feet in tbicknesaand cover -d with Portland cement The j workmanship is oi the best. The) windows and doorsills are of mar- dleimnorted from Italy, and the winding stairs and its twp galleries are of solid mahogany. Hunting and fishing are pleasant diversions at Elmington. There are 25 acres of oyster ground on the rier front of the estate, and 80 abundant is quail that they may frequently be seen on th e lawn with the chickens. Wild turkeys and woodcock are also nu merous. Mr. Dixon does most of bis writing in an old house on the othei ide of the creek.
