ASKS PRAYERS OF PEOPLE Widow of King Edward Returns Thanks to Subjects ‘BODY TAKEN TO THRONE ROOM In Enclosed Within Oaken Casket and Covered with Parple Cloth Which Enshronded Vietorin, e i LONDON, May il.—While the rulers and Tepresentatives of fore nations are as- wembling here for the obsequies of King Edward the varlous necessary formalities incident to the sad event are belng gradu- ally completed. The widowed queen has sent a touching personal message to the nation, written in unassuming style and recalling similar intimate messages which Queen Vietorla was in the habit of address ing to her people. King George has addrcssed messages to the navy and army expressing his thanks for their loyalty and devotion and his solici- | tude for the efficiency of both services. A message has also gone from the king to the Indian prince and people, expressive of his profound gratitude for thelr sym- pathy. Qu Alexandra's message to the nation was as follows From the depth of my poor, Uroken héart 1 wish to express to the whole nation and our kind people we love so well my deep-felt thanks for thelr touching sym- pathy in my overwhelming sorrow and unspeakable anguish Not alone have 1 lost everything in him, my beloved husband, but the nation, too, has suffered an irreparable loss by their best friend, father and sovereign thus sud- denly called away. May God give us all His divine help to bear this heaviest of crosses,’ which He has seen fit to lay upon us. ‘His will be done.’ Queen Awks Praye “Glve to me a thought in your prayers which will comfort and sustain me in all that I have to go through. Let me take this opportunity of expressing ‘my heart- felt thanks for all the touching letters and tokens of sympathy I have recelved from all classes, high and low; rich and poor, which are so numerous that I fear It would be impossible for me (o ever thank every- body individually, “I confide my dear son into your care, who 1 know will follow in his dear father's footsteps, begging you (o show him the same loyalty and devotion you showed his dear father. I know that both my dear won and daughter-in-law will do thew ut- most to merit and keep it.' One of the first messages issued by King George, who has long been known as “The Eailor Prince,” was addressed to the navy in it the king say “It 1s my earnest wish on succeeding to the throne to make known to the navy how deeply grateful I am for its faithful and distinguished services rendered to the late King, my beloved father, who ever showed the greatest solicitude for its welfare and efficlency. Love for Navy. “Educated and trained in that profes- wion, which I love so dearly, retirement from active duty has in no sense dimin- ished my feeling of affection for it. For thirty-three years I have had the honor of serving in the navy, and much intimate participation in its life and work enables me to know how thoroughly I can depend on that spirit of loyalty and zealous de- votlon to duty, of which the glorfous his- tory of our navy is the outcome. That you will ever continue to be in the past the foremost defender of your coun- try's honor I know full well, and your fortunes will always be followed by me with deep feelings of pride and interest. “George V. John E. Redmond, leader of the Irish parifamentary party, has written to Pre- mier Asquith reminding him of the favor- able expressions, when recently the ques- tion was raised in Parllament by the duke of Norfolk, the foremost Catholic in Eng- land, of abolishing from the declaration, which the monarch must make before a new parllament of the anclent words “abjuring the Church of Rome," which Mr Redmond declares, are most offensive to all Catholies. Cabinet Takes Action. The cabinet today decided to introduce a | bill, amending the declaration of the king, wherein he asserts his disbelief in the substantiation and adoration of the virgin and saints and that he makes the declara- tion without mental reservation or dispen- sation from the pope or other authority. For the declaration that the foregoing doctrines and the mass “are superstitious nd idolatrous,” it is proposed to substitute e words, “are contrary to my bellet,” ind omit reference to the pope. The majority of the members of Parlia- | [ | | ment are believed to favor these changes but (he Oramgemen and extreme Protes- tants will oppose them.

(From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Neb., May 1l.—(Special Tele-| gram.)—J. \W. Crabtree, principal of the Peru Normal school, answered last night | the report of Luther P. Ludden, sectetary of | the State Normal board, tiled some weeks ago. After discussing the two statements for some time, the board agreed to take them up at the next meeting. Mr. Cra tree's statement was divided under the fol- lowing - heads Private Water Connee- tions,” “Oak Glenn," “State's Ice,” “Paying of Interest,” “Triplicate Recelpts,” “'Private Music,” “Horace Mann Statue” and “Mutton.” At the conclusion of the Crabiree state- | ment Mr. Ludden announced that his re- port and that of the pencipal agreed ex- cept probably in the matter of gasoline. In his report Mr. Ludden showed that two barrels of gasoline had been charged \a the state and delivered tb T. J. Majors, and later had been paid for by Majors, not, the authorities at Peru nor- mal, had been filed with the board. Mr. Crabtree read letters from the Stan- dard Oil company showing that, Colonel Majors had sent his check fof the gasoline some time in December and that the voucher had been included in the bunch filed with the board by mistake. - Mr. Lud- den said he had seen the books of the com- pany prior 1o the date of the major's letter from the company and at that time the gasoline was charged to the state. He ked Mr. Crabtree if the letter had not| but the question was not | answered Mr. Ludden also volunteered | | the information that the manager of the| Standard Oil company was asked about| this matter and repled that regardless of the date Mr. Ludden saw in the books, the letter carried a date which settled the matter. Mr. Crabtree sald he had been instructed by the board to connect his home with the normal water mains and 'this state- | ment was agreed to by Ludden, who in- he knew nothing of any agreement about Oak Glenn, the Crab- tree dormitory. Mr. Crabtree produced letters from J. L. McBrien saying he re- membered that had been done with the sanction of the board. Crabtree sald he had taken very little ice from the state's ice house for his own use, then in case of sickness. The statement of Mutton, he said, con- sisted of eight sheep heads used by one of the classes for which was no charge, ex- cept the frelght. He maintained that he pald the interest on money borrowed to keep the school going by orders of the defunct board, which statement was denied by Ludden, who sald a payment had been made after the court had declded the old board was defunct. Crabtree then ' ex- plained that the payments had been made monthly. This money was paid out of the | book fund. 'In the employment of a music teacher, Crabtree said he had simply followed pre- cedent and did not know he was violating the orders of the board. The Horace Mann statue, he sald, was paid for by orders of the board and so far as the triplicate receipts are concerned he had done the best he could to follow orders. Mr. Crabtree doubted that any private home in Peru was connected with the normal water plant and that he had given orders to disconnect Oak Glenn, The meeting was very harmonfous little feeling was shown. The board elected H. H. Hahn of Blair to be dean of the college of education at the Wayne Normal. President Conn was instructed to discuss with the citizens of Wayne the time for taking over the school by the state. The state will have no money to run this institute until after the legis- lature makes an appropriation, i W. J.

Accord- ing to an officlal report by United States Collector of Customs Blair at Sweetgrass in that siate, hundreds of families have come over from Canada within the last week and have taken up government lands in Montana, This movement began earl in the winter and has increased each day | until the total of newcomers from across line has reached many thousands. These newcomers are very largely men and women who had given-up their citizenship in the United States In order to take up Canadian government lands; some of them | have been in Canada long enough to prove up their homesteads, but large numbers of them have come back without waiting to obtain title to their government lands or have sold their relinquishments or deeded | the lands. So there would appear to be no | call for officlal or other action in this country to “stem the tide” of American Im- migration into Canada. These things al- ways adjust themselves if let alone. The| “anadian land boom, the “call to the far| northwest” caught many thrifty American farmers no doubt, who, had they taken thought and deliberately measured the chances for the success of the failure of the experiment, would never have “pulled up stakes"—and it is this class, apparently, thet is now moving southward into “the| states;” others will atay and fight it out, | of course.
