DANVILLE, HI.. May 1-1 n spits of tha
fact that there are two companies of stats
militia and a number of deputies under
Sheriff Helmlait on tha scene, grave fears
era entertained as to the outcome of the
day In Westvllla, five miles from here,
where several hundred foreign miners have
been troublesome for the last three days.
The chief ground for these fears is the
fact that tha saloons, which have been
closed for two years, will reopen today.
Westvllla went "wet" at the recent elec
tion and this Is the date set for the re
sumption of the sale of liquor. v
Tha two companies of the mllltla, the
Danville company, under Captain fiwatm,
and the Champaign company, under Cap
tain Smith, the two commands numbering
about seventy-five men, were summoned
from the local armory fit 1 o'clock this
morning by the aherlff and were taken In
two special trolley cars to Westvllle.
Most of the mn were stationed at No. t
shaft, one mile from town. There was no
demonstration on the arrival ot the troops
and at an early hour In the forenoon
everything was fairly quiet.
The miners, however, declared that some
time during the day they would march In
ft body to Cattlln, about five miles from
Westvllle. Should this demonstration be
peaceable no attempt will be made to in
terfere with them, but rioting will be
eheoked. Information of trouble In In
diana camo by telephone this morning
from Clinton, Ind., where at an early hour
JOS miners marched on the Crown Hill and
Buckeye mines and threatened forty pump
and repair men. Assistance was asked of
the chief of polios of Clinton, who sent
men to the mines.

From the time of Norman conquest to
the present day England's government, so
generally accepted as an institution ot
solidity and permanence, has been subject
to many changes. It has never previously
heppentd that there has been four rulers In
direct succession without a crisis which,
at the time, threatened to affect the en
tire nation If not; to result in a change
of govern men L
The time of the Norman conquest is
taken as a starting point, because until
then It cannot be said that England had
settled government. There wera kings,
but In the modern sense of tha word Eng
land had no government worthy ot the
name. Might made right. The government
of Sason England was. as has been said
of Russia In more modern times, "a des
potism tempered by assassination." The
names of flfty-sls. Faxon' kings have been
preserved to ua, and of thia number all
but four died a violent death, and of the
four, the end of two Is uncertain. Poison,
the sword, midnight assassination, armed
rebellion, tha fortune of battle, the result
of a drunken brawl some went one way
some another, but only two out of the
fifty-six, so far aa recorded, died peace
fully In their beds. The early Norman
times were not much better, and the deaths
of many of the kings wera far from
creditable either to th. nation or to the
royal family. Several were assassinated
some In the most brutal manner! some
died under exceedingly suspicious circum
stances, but there was les drunkenness
and assassination among them than among
their Saxon predecessors, so a review ot
tha history of the English sovereigns sine
the Norman conquest would not bs unfair
as a basis of comparison.
Tata Xavntaa Klaus.
Willie m the Conqufror closed his bloody
reign by dying like a dog. and before his
naked body had been trampled Into a dis
puted grave his sons wera fighting for the
kingdom. William was succeeded by hi
son, William Rufvs, who left the bedside
of his dying father to take horse, ride
away and secure that father's castles and
treasure. For a time hs played the tyrant,
In the language of the historian, "fearing
not God, regal ding not the wrath of man
esteeming not the honor of woman;" then
was killed by Sir Walter Tyrrell in the
New Forest. Poetic Justice was meted out
In hit, case also. He had deserted his dying
fsther's bedside, so, at his last moments,
his servants deserted him, leaving his body
lying In the forest and riding posthaste to
plunder the royal palace. Some travelers
saw the royal corpse, but passed on, and
a day or so later a charcoal burner, recog
nising the body as that of tha king, threw
it Into his cart and brought It to Winches
ter. A general scuffle for the throne en
sued among the king's relatives, and Henry
I. nicknamed "Beauclerk," succeeded in
winning the prize. Hs was too much of
glutton and a drunkard to give more
than the necessary attention to the affairs
of the kingdom, died of overeating and
was burled with the honors due to his
presumed scholarship. This made the first
trio, whose combined rolgns lasted from
!0K to 11. Then there was change in
the succession. The throne was seised
by Stephen, styled "ths usurper," because
someone of ths opposite party wrote his
history. He was. In fact, no mors of a
usurper than most other kings of his time.
The truth was that upon tha death ot
Henry there was tha same soramble for
the throne that had followed ths death of
William and of his son, Rufiui. and Ste
phen In the souffle was victorious, prob
ably because his principal competitor was
a woman. However, he auoceeded, seised
the government and held the -throne until
his dtath, or from A. D. 1135 to A. D. UA.
Another Revelation.
Upon the death of Stephen tha crown re
verted to the family of -Henry I., whose
daughter Maud had contested It with
Stephen, and by treaty secured It to her
son, who ascended the throne under the
title of Henry II. This king was the son
of Geoffrey Plentagenet. and after the
crisis brought on by Ptephen this Henry
was the first to reintroduce the regular line
of succession. Henry II. left the throne to
his son, Richard I., In 1189. who. after
reigning ten years, upending less than six
months In England and the balance of the
time on the continent or In his orusades,
died from a wound received while besieg
ing the castle of a rebellious vassel and
turned the scepter over to his brother John,
whose nickname was a Latin term which
might be freely translated "The Masher,"
John was the third of the second group,
and ss If attended by ill-fortune at every
step, almost Immediately got Into trouble
with his barons. They overpowered him
forced him to sign the Magna Charta, I
step which ha so bitterly regretted that sj
soon as he was free to act he collected trib
utes for the purpose of putting down his re
bellious vassals. The barons secured ths
assistance of the pope, who laid England
under an interdict and kindly presented hi
friend, the Dauphin, with the English crown
as a gift John went on'wlth hia prepara
tions for war, but having lost hia baggage
and treasure by a tidal, wave while cross
ing an arm ot the sea, he died of mortifica
tion and waa burled at Worcester between
the shrines of two famous saints in whom
he felt unbounded confidence, and, there
fore, hesitated not to trust his body and
soul to their keeping. Thus waa the seeond
group ef reigns, lasting from 1164 to 1218.
terminated by a most serious crisis, the
kingdom being given away by the pope
and a strong effort made on the part of
the French to seise It. To the English
pfople, however, this crisis was the more
Important, from the fact that the founda
tion of English liberties dates from the
latter part of the reign of John'.

Henry III, Immediately after assuming
regal power, made peace with the pope,
who changed his tactics.' left France In the
lurch, reinstated England In his good
graces, and confirmed the power of Henry,
In spite, however, of papal support, this
weak man was In continual trouble with
his vassals and with foreign potentates,
was imprisoned by Leicester, and finally
died under suspicious circumstances, leav

father. He was a creditable sovereign, and
after some trouble finally rid himself of his
bad advisers and reigned without a rival
from 1327 to 1377. one fcf the longest reigns
In English history. Vpon his desth the
kingdom desrended to his son, Richard II.,
wvak man, unable to cope with the
turbulent clement present among his sub
jects. A more able sovereign might have
deferred tha evil day. but tha Ill-advised
measures of Richard precipitated his own
ruin. By a successful rebellion he wss
overpowered, then disappeared from his
tory, the place and manner ot his dtath
being uncertain. Hs was no doubt mur
dered, but by whom er la what manner Is
unknown. Thus. In place ot ths three kings,
only two, crossed the stags before the poli
tical earthquake came which upset ths ei-
ting order of thing and substituted a new
regime.
Tha Hhm f Ijinen.ter.
The crlsla by which Richard II. was over
thrown turned over ths crown to a new
race of kings, those ef tha House of Lan
caster, Henry IV., who succeeded Richard
II., being, however, hia cousin. Tha throne
changed occupant In 19M, and In du. time
Henry IV. was succeeded by his ton Henry
V., and he by his, Henry IV., their com
bined reigns lasting until 141. This was a
period of great turbulence, ef riots and dis
turbances at home, of wars with foreign
powers. Almost continual strife was car
ried on with France, various fortunes at
tending the English arms. Acincourt was
fought and won, and as an opposing vic
tory, all th English conquests In France
we're lost by the wonderful success 1 1 the
French army, under tha leadership of Joan
of Arc. At horn the people wera mors
than usually turbulent; Jack Cade's rebel
lion broke out and was suppressed only
after Immense bloodshed, and the two lead
ing families of English nobility, th houses
of Tork and Lancaster, were engaged in
almost continual strife for tha precedence.
Th consequence waa that poor old Henry
VI., having the Ill-luck to be the third of
a trio, was buffeted and set up and pulled
down (Ike a wooden man, waa deposed for
good, and being of no further service to
himself or anyone else, was quietly mur
dered. At his death th throne was taken
by th Duka of Tork under th title of
Edward IV, and a ne dynasty of king
cam in.
Bo.warth.
As In the preceding case, so now three
reigns pass ere another change; reigns full
of battle and blood, ot private murder and
of public vengeance. English history has no
darker page than that narrating the events
from 1461 to 148S. comprising th reigns of
Edward IV, Edward VI. the miserable
child of th Tower, and Richard III, th
brother of Edward IV. With the reign of
Richard III, he being th third In ths
group, cam th crista, th revolution,
which ended In success, and terminated
the reign and life of Richard together on
Bosworth field. The crisis this time com
prised the forcible extinction of one dy
nasty and the establishment of another. It
waa one of the most marked epochs In the
history ot th English people, and with his
usual fidelity to fact, Shakspeare seised
upon it and made- It the turning point of
one of hia greatest dramas. Three more
reigns muat b counted, covering a period
from 14S5 to 1063, before another crisis ap
pears In governmental affairs. The kings
are Henry VII, Henry VIII and Edward
VI, father son and grandson. Momentous
changes occurred during the reign of the
second of this list; the king's domestic
troubles, the divorce question, the quarrel
with the pope, tha separation of the Church
of England from th Church of Rome, were
all matters of history during thla Henry's
reign. However, they all passed and the
three kings died; Henry VII, ot decline,
old ag and stinginess; his son. Henry
VIII of "carbuncles, fat and fury." and Ed
ward VI of general debility, caused by too
much study, enforced hy his old-time
Scotch tutor. Then cams th crisis. Th
friends of Lady Jane Grey proclaimed her
queen; she reigned w-lth royal honors dur
ing ten days, then retired to private life
was arrested, tried, condemned and be
headed when only 17 yean old, and few pic
tures In history ar more pathetic than the
fate of this unfortunate child, wh was
after all but a tool In the hands of Intrig
uers.
Mary and EIUahth,
Two queens now reigned, opposite in
character and religion Bloody Mary and
Queen Elisabeth their reigns covering the
years from 1563 to 1603, This was the
period of English glory. Literature, the
arts and sciences flourished; foreign eon
quests were made; the English began to
travel and colonise. Explorers laid tha
foundation of states in America and India;
th voyages of Drake made possible the
settlements of th next century, and.
above all, by the defeat and dispersion ef
the "Invincible Armada," England became
the first naval power In Europe. The crisis
which closed this period waa none the less
marked because peaceful. It was a change
of dynasty, tha crowns passing from the
house of Tudor to tha house ot Stuart.
James I ascended th throne lately va
cated by Elisabeth in 1603, and held it
until he drank himself to death in 162S,
wnen it passed to his son, Charles I, who
fell out with his people, and. after a long!
civil war, was captured and beheaded. His
death constituted a crisis more serious than
any previously known In English history,
for by It the entire form of government
was changed, and, during the reign of
Cromwell, England was practically ruled
with the sword. The commonwealth lasted
from 1B4 to 1658. After the death of Oliver
Cromwell, his son proved Inadequate to th
burden of empire, resigned his position and
retired to private life, when the throne was
offered to Charles II, who accepted it and
reigned as quietly as possible, giving of
fense to nobody, because, as hs said, he
"did not want to go on his travels again."
After his death. In a fit of Intoxication,
James II asoended the throne, a man of en
tirely different character, Intolerant and
Intolerable, and thus st the close of the
seoond reign another crisis came, the revo
lution, of 16. by which James was driven
from his throne snd eountry, and became
a wanderer throughout Europe.
William and Mary.
Another dynasty now cam In with Wil
liam o Oranga and Mary, the daughter of
Jame II. Although William and Mary
reigned Jointly, their reigns may be counted
as one, continuing from 16DS until ths dath
of Mary in 14, when William reigned
alone until 170, and was then succeeded
by Anne, the daughter of James II. Her
reign continued, until 1714, and of her thir
teen children not one survived, so that
when ah died a ehanga In dynasty occur
red, th scepter passing aver to th House
of Hanover in th person of George I, the
son of Sophia, th daughter of Elisabeth,
who was th daughter of James I. After
the group composed of William, Mary and
Anne, and the crisis which resulted In the
succession of the new dynasty, three sov
ereigns reigned George I, George II and
George II-but during the reign of the last
thr. waa a regency, and, so a break In the
succession. The crisis was rather political!
than social or military, but It was none the
less a crisis. The establishment of the re- i
genry was something unprecedented: there
had not been a regency before In the his
tory of England; It was something unparal
leled; henrs th political txcltenvnt, for
tha regency was practically a change In the
form of government. Front Oeorgt III to
the present time three sovercle-ns hsve
reigned; George IV. William IV and Vic
toria, but the succession has been inter
rupted. William being the brother and not
the son of Qeorge IV. and Victoria being
the daughter of Edwsrd, Puko of Kent,
the fourth son of George III. Moreover,
Victoria, succeeded her uncle to the throne,
thus making a serious break in the suc
cession. Nevertheless, th successions of
these three have been peaceful, and without
notable excitement or apprehension,
lrregrnlar Saeraslns,
With regsrd to the successions noted,
they have been remnrkably Irregular from
the time Of William, the Conquerer, down
to the present. In one only has the great
grandson In direct descent ascended the
throne. That instance was John, and the
exception In his case was far from cred
itable, for during his reign th kingdom
was twice given away; his son, Henry III,
was Imprisoned, his great grand son, Edward
II, was murdered. Grandchildren have suc
ceeded In direct descent only two or throe
times. Stephen waa the grandson of Wil
liam I, Richard II of Edward III, George
III of Georg II, but their fathers did not
succeed to the throne. In the case of Henry
VI and Edward V, both were the children
and grandchildren of reigning sovereigns,
and each was notably unfortunate. A
glance backward shows that there has been
a ruling number In the history ef English
kings. They reiga In groups of three or
two each, alternating with crises of more
or less Importance. The three longest reigns
not Including the present, were those of
Henry III, fifty-six years and of George
III. sixty years. The reign of Victoria was
begun In 1837, and so exceeded the reign of
Henry III; but It should be remembered
that the regency extended from 1811 to
1830, ,a period which should be taken from
the reign of this king. The English have
been without a crisis, therefore, since 1830;
four sovereigns have ruled. King Edward
became th fourth ruler sine. 1830,

of Germany, was born at Windsor. Albert
Edward waa born duke of Cornwall and
duk of Rothesay, but not prince of Wales,
that dignity being conferred on him a
month after bis birth.
The future king of England received his
first training under the direction of Lady
Lyttleton, a sister ot Mrs. Gladstone, who
filled the post of governess to the royal
children until hs wss years old. His ed
ucation began at tha age of 7. under th
tutelage of Rev. Henry Mildred Birch, who
retired from his position in 1531.
It wss in this year that the future ruler
of Great Britain made his first public, ap
pearance, assisting at ths opening of the
great exhibition in London. Hia second
tutor was Frederick W. Gibbs, who re
mained with th prince seven years. He
then went to Edlnburg to pursue his
studies under th instruction ot a number
of professors.
In August, 1849, Edward saw Ireland for
the first time. With his parents he re
ceived a reception at Queenatown which
was so enthusiastic that he never forgot it,
In the summer of 1865 Edward extended
his travels beyond ths borders of th king
dom, visiting Franc with his sister and
parents. Th visit waa a historic one, it
bolng the first since the days ot Henry VI
on which an English sovereign had entered
Paris.
In 1887 the prince went to Germany and
spent four months in study at Kenigs-
winter, on th Rhine. In th fall of 1858
he continued his travels on th continent,
visiting Germany and Italy. At Rom he
waa received by Pop Plo Nono. Spain and
Portugal Wer next visited,' and In July he
returned to England. Befere attempting
further glob trotting tti pirnce eonoluded
hia fifth term at Oxford. He finished his
education at Trinity college, Cambridge.
SnrlnaTlnar Aressl the Circle.
It was not until 1860 thst Edward began
his first tour of th British dominions be
yond tha seas. With a brilliant entourage
he sailed lr th battleship Hero for Can
ada, accompanied by a squadron of war
vessels.
The prince arrived at St. Johns, New
foundland, on July ZS. and his landing was
accompanied by every evidence of popular
rejoicing. He was then a stripling 19 years
Of age.
After a tour of ths Dominion, in which he
visited Quebec, Toronto and other principal
cltlea of the subrealm to he north, and
was everywhere received with the most
vociferous loyalty, the then prince of Walee
arrived at Windsor, Ontario, whence he
crossed ths river that divides British soil
from American and landed at Detroit, thus
beginning his memorial visit to the United
States.
The next event In the life of the prince
was his meeting with Princess Alexandra of I
Denmark and his courtship, which was.
however. Interrupted by the death of his
father, the prince consort.
The prince first became attract,! to Prin
cess Alexandra by her photograph. In No
vember, while on a visit to Germany, he
met the princess for the first time.
Th formal betrothal took place In 1.
but It was not until the evening before the
prince became of legal sge that his en
gagement waa formally announced. The
marriage took place In St. George's chapel
on March 10. 1M. The young couple begnn
housekeeping with an Income of over MM.
000 a year, the Hons of Commons being
liberal In Its grant.
In July, 1(64. th prince, by laying the
foundation stone of the new west wing of
the London hospital, evinced the first signs
of that love of charitable acts which never
forsook him. After a visit to 'Denmark.
Germany and Belgium, he paid his flrat
state visit to Ireland In 1866, opening on
May 8 of that year the International ex
hibition of Dublin. On the 3d of th fol
lowing month Prlnc George ef Wales was
born at Marlborough house. In this year
the prince of Wales attended his first
publlo dinner aa president of ths Royal
literary fund and Inspected ths telegraph
cable then a great novelty In th Great
Eastern off Pheerness. In this year also
the prlnc suffered th loss of Lord
Palmeraton, whose friendship waa greatly
esteemed by him.
Visit tai India.
On March 30, 1876, the projected visit of
the prince ot Wales to India was an
nounced, and, strange to relate, a great
deal of criticism was caused by th state
ment. It aeeme odd now to read tiiat a
mass meeting was held In Hyde park to
protest against the tour on th score of
expense-. It wss estimated that the prince
would have to travel with presents, to
be given to his various hosts In India, to
the value of $200,000; hia. personal expenses
wer set down at 1300,000,. and th ad
miralty estimate the expenses ot the
voyage out and home at (360,000. His suite
was extensive, for, although he went to
India officially aa the heir apparent of
th crown, th native princes and the
people of India regarded him a th direct
representative of the crown.
Leaving London on October 11 for Brln
dial, whence he sailed on th Indian troop
ship Serapls, he landed In Bombay on No
vember 7, 187S. In seventeen weeks the
prince traveled 8,000 miles by land and t,W0
mllea by sea, thus seeing more of th coun
try than any other Englishman of th time,
and making th acquaintance of more ra
jahs "than had all the viceroys who had
ever reigned over India." Politically as
well as from an economic point of view th
visit of his royal highness to India was a
success.
On January 23, 1901, the day following
the death of Queen Victoria, the prince of
Wales took the oath as king In St. James
palace. His accession to the throne was
marked by a noteworthy revival of core,
monial forms and pageantry, which neces
sarily lapved during the long reign of Vic
toria. After the queen's funeral, at which
the new king and his nephew, the emperor
of Germany, were th central figures in
the procession, King Edward remained In
' seclusion at Windsor until February 4. On
thai day he Issued the three messages, one
to the British people, on to the people o
the colonies and the third to th people of
India, In which he pledged himself to strive
to the utmost of his power to maintain and
promote the highest Interests of his people,
King Edward's first appearance in pub.
lie after his accession to th, throne was
on February 14, when he opened tha first
Parliament of hia reign In stats. Th
spectacle had a novelty and a splendor
unprecedented within th memory of th
oldest Londoner then living. It was
spectacle that carried London back to th
days of the chivalry of medievalism.
Not a feature of ceremony was omitted.
King Edward moved In procession with
his court from St. James to Westminster
and received the homage ot the Houses of
Lords and Commons Just ss King Henry
VIII did 400 years before.
There were beefeaters in red snd black
medieval garb, life guards in brilliant red
oloaks and white-plumed helmets, postil
ions and walking men in scarlet and gold-
laced liveries, ushers, sllversticks and a
soar of officials In royal Insignia.
Arriving at Parliament house, the king
and queen marched between a living wall
of peers and peeresses, all clad In the robes
representing their rank. Before th king
walked the marquis of Londonderry, carry
ing the gorgeously-Jeweled sword of state,
and th marquis of Winchester, bearing
the cap of maintenance. When stated upon
his throne the king took the oath and read
his first speech to Parliament.
