RAPID GROWTH OF MOSCOW.
Russian City Will Soon Rank With
the LARGEST in Europe.

lne Largest III Europe.
The population of Moscow shows a
remarkably rapid increase. Within
the comparatively short period of 80
years the number of inhabitants has
just about doubled. At the time of the
French invasion in 1912 the urban
Muscovites numbered about 300, 900,
although the official returns were 252,-
600. In 1871 the official census gave
the population as 602. 900. in 1882 it
was 76S,0OO, and according to the
reckoning now completed the historic
capital contains 1,173.500 inhabitants.
thus taking the tenth place among the
most populous cities of the world.
Moscow covers an area of 101 square
kilometers, or only two kilometers less
than that of st. Petersburg. Area is
not. however, by any means general
criterion, in questions of population. as
appears from the fact that whereas
London. with the largest population
of any city in the world covers 303
square kilometers. New York. with 3
population numbering more than
million less than that OF the British
metropolis, has a total area of 795
square kilometers. The population or
Moscow is less dense than those Of
St Petersburg. Glasgow, London. Ber-
lin and Paris.

Antics of Young Alfonso has Filled the
Empire with Grayest Fear-Lack of
Mental Balance Evident

New York, Aug. ga cable from
Madrid says: All Spain is aghast over
the latest reports of the extraordi
nary eccentricities of King Alfonso
The details of his remarkable actions,
which are now becoming known,
cause the gravest fear that the ru-
mors of mental alteration are true.
During his recent provincial tour the
king repeatedly gave evidence of a
lack of mental balance and almost
drove Gen. Pacheo, his chief attend
ant, frantic by his actions.
While in Cabadonga the king visit
ed the shrine, which is one of the
most famous in Europe. After the
''Te Deum" Alfonso said he was hun
CRY and wanted something to eat.
Gen. Pacheo explained that he must
first see the sacred relics. The bishop
of Cabadonga conducted HIS maies-
ty toward the relics and began an
explanation. The bishop showed the
king st. Peters toe nail and st. Paul's
hair. The king stopped him with:
'Say, bishop, do you believe that
nonsense?" The scandalized bishop
affirmed that he did. ''Wen, I don't. -
replied Alfonso. "We have seen
enough; I'm going to dinner" With
which remark he marched off to the
dining hall.
