children of the neighbOrboOd are invited to
play in the garden, and the Queen Regent
and Queen Wilhelmina will both strive 10
make perfectly happy as many as possible.
Loo is situated on the fields of APPEL
dOorn, and in this castle Queen Wilhelmina
and her mother usually remain from May
until October. The castle is surrounded
with Dutch flower gardens, shady walks,
admirable fountains and two great cas-
cades, where the water falls from enc
basin to another. The house itself looks
ancient, because of its massive chimneys,
but it is freshly painted, and the interior
is thoroughly modern. The entrance hall
is very large and seems 10 be used for
billiard room, salon, library-in fact, for
general family room. Scattered about
are chairs and sofas; on the table lie
charts and albums, while the walls are
covered with every imaginable curiosity,
brought from the Dutch Indies.
King William IlPs study is left as il
was when he died November %, 1890 1t
contains a wonderful collection Of wea-
pons on every square inch of wall there
are guns. swords, daggers, etc. Much of
the English plate that was made for Viii
liam of England is at Loo, and there is
also collection of fine paintings-the
most conspicuous of which are by Bou-
guereau. 1t was at Loo that the late King
of Holland entertained the great must
clans of Europe, and there he listened to
the performance OF the musical societv es-
tablished under his auspices. At Loo,
also, during the lifetime of the King, the
equipages and horses were magnificent
and entertainments, where illustrious
guests succeeded illustrious guests. were
numerous.
At this castle Queen Wilhelmina leads a
very serious, regular life. Every morning
she rises at o'clock, and always finds
that Queen Emma has risen still earlier.
For each day the Regent spends three or
four hours with affairs of state, and every
paper of Importance, every document. is
carefully read before. the royal signature
is affixed. Until she was seven years old
Wilhelmina had a French governess, but
since that time an English woman, Miss
SaxtOD- Winter, has superintended her
education.
Her Majesty speaks both French and
English fluently. and in music she makes
rapid progress because she inherits her
fathers love for the art. The young
Queen possesses a superb Bible, Orna-
mented with rare engravings. and from
this the Queen Regent reads and explains
each day.
After luncheon Queen WiIhelmina drives
her ponies-sometimes four. sometimes
slX-Or sails her boat or busies herself
with her pigeons.

Romance of a Mandarin.

While the young American bicyclists, Messrs.

powerful official called the Ling DARN. No one

each other in doing him honor, and his
lines appeared to be cast in such pleasant
places that he was probably the most
envied preacher in America.
But the inevitable happened. The
strain Of furnishing religious pabulum
of the quality required by such con-
gregation, and at the same time keeping
up with the round of social gayeties
thought proper by his flock, proved too
much for the preacher, brainy and stall
wart though he was. The quality of his
sermons deteriorated somewhat from the
standard he had set up himself. He did
not "draw" 80 well as formerly. The
pews were no longer filed at every serv-
ice, and some dissatisfaction was open
ly expressed by the church members
He faced the situation manfully and re-
signed. And great was the surprise oc-
casioned thereby.
DR.. Paxton took pastoral charge of the
West church in 1888. For six years prior
to that he had been pastor of the New
York Avenue Presbyterian church in
Washington.
When the civil war broke out, DR..
Paxton was at college in northern
Pennsylvania. and his whole college
class, captained by professor, marched
from the halls of learning and formed
themselves into company of volun-
teer regiment They saw some hard
service. and at Gettysburg but seven of
that heroic band were left, and Paxton,
who wore a sergeant's stripes. com
manded them.
After the war DR.. Paxton studied the
ology and was ordained a minister in
1871, when he was 30 years of age. He
held various charges in Pennsylvania
and Maryland prior to going to Wash
ington, where his fame may be said to
have begun its growth. He is financially
independent, but should his health be re-
stored will probably be heard from on
the lsctnre platform in the fntnrA.
