a drive with her grandsons. the young
princes of Battenbnrg. when. nearing

tanner with huge animal standing in
the road. evidently waiting for the APP
proach of the royal carriage.
Persuaded by the children, the queen
ordered the carriage stopped and
watched with much pleasure the per-
formance of the bear. She sent the
footman with sovereign to hand to
the tanner. who refused to accept the
money. and asked If her majesty would
condescend to give him some sort of a
note as a proof that his bear had had
the distinguished honor of having
danced before the gracious eyes of her
majesty.
The queen hesitated to grant this
rather impudent request. but the chill
dren prevailed upon her to accede to
the tanners wish. Ee@8&
"Why not do it," argued little Prince
Henry. WAS there not horse made

"Well. tell me the name of the empcr-
or who committed such folly said the
queen. land the bear shall gain recOg-

The prince named Caligula without
the slightest hesitation.
That same evening letter bearing
the royal seal was delivered TO the
bear tanner, in which the title. 'Bear
