wears. and we'll alive to the dignity and re-
sponsibilities Of his position. His mothers
devoted training has been thoroughly success
full. and though the King has his own mill
tary governor and household, the Queen Re-
gents influence is still paramount. AT first
there was some danger that the child was
little over-educated for his strength, so
studies were replaced by outdoor exercise and
sports, with the result that the young King
has almost outgrown his delicacy. The sum-
mer being spent at San Sebastian, he has
plenty of sea air, and greatly enjoys trips to
the various Spanish war vessels along the
coast. He learned riding very early, taking
daily lessons in the Palace stables, at Madrid,
where his favorite mount is a handsome pony
bred from the royal stud at Aranjuez:
But the Kings strongest bent leans to mill
getting over dangerous Illness he would in
sist on standing at the window to see the
Palace guards changed and salute with thu
utmost gravity. When, therefore, he went
later to San Sebastian, child regiment was
organized for his amusement. It proved the
greatest delight to the young monarch, who
inspected his 700 boy soldiers with much
zeaf and duly shared their drills. On his
tenth birthday Alphonso was allowed to dor
his first uniform-that of pupil in the In
! tantry Training School-and his governor,
General Sanchez, is very careful that he
! should become well-practiced soldier. The
young King is very satisfactory pupil. Be.

French English, German, and Italian, and il
= fair Latin and Greek scholar. In appear
ance he is more of Hapsburg, like his
| mother, than a Bourbon. Tall and slim, he
! is decidedly fair, with curly hair, rather
prominent forehead and serious expression.

H. o. TANNERS PAINTING.

Henry 0. Tanner, the American artist whose
picture, "The Raising of Lazarus" after being
exhibited at this years Paris Salon, was
bought by the French government for the
Luxembourg gallery, reached this country
from Paris about two weeks ago, and is now
in Philadelphia, Pa, visiting his family. Mr..
Tanner has followed, 80 far as 1t is at all def
mite, the account OF the miracle Of the raising:
Of Lazarus given in the gospel according TO
st. John. He places the scene Of his painting
In the dark cavern at Bethany, the immediate
foreground at the right showing Lazarus him
self, half reclining on the stone floor. as ne
struggles back to life The mark of death is
upon him and the grave clothes show white
and livid in the gloom Of the little cavern at
Bethany. The picture might have been made
repulsive, but the artist avoided any such ia
tally. Without being theatrical or sersa-
tional, the representation of this miracle is
powerful and appealing. Mr.. Tanners COD
ception of Christ is reverent, strong, and ten

his face makes him stand out prominently
The figures of Mary and Martha are ski!lfullY
placed, in contrasting attitudes. The sur

and especially Of the completeness of his en-
thusiasm in the subject he chose. The mys-
