IS Mary Kingsley tells very
amusing story about West African
women. She says there was beau
tlful young black government oficlat
in uniform complete, and fate ordained
one day that he should be told on 10
superintend the coaling Of little gun
boat The coaling was being done by
native women. He, full Of zeal and
DESTROYS of demonstrating 1t, shouted,
talked and gave directions to those
women, as he stood, uniform and all,
under the government flag, on the
government quay. They went on with
their work merrlly and paid no atten-
ton to him. Presently, other govern
ment officials being about, he, still de-
slrous Of demonstrating ZEAL cuffed
one Of the women and said something
dlsagreeable. They turned upon him,
threw him into the thin, black batter
that goes for water In that part Of her
majesty's dominlons and went ON
with their work. A more unhappy
person than that man when he re.
turned to society you never saw; HE
uniform you could not ses for mud,
and the other government officials Be.
haved in an unfeeling way. They

Lord Marcus ,Beresford, besides be-

Ever since he relinquished his post of
official starter of the Jockey Club he
has been managing the Kings racing
stud supervising the training and buy
ing and selling for the King. The ga
letting o. his appointment as manager
must. therefore, be regarded in the
light of an official confirmation of his
occupancy of the post. and likewise as
an Indication that the King will re-
main on the turf and continue to run
horses. several entries indeed, having
just been made in his name. 1t must
thoroughly be understood that Lord
Marcus has nothing to do with the
royal stud farms at Hampton Court
Palace. These are crown property,
whereas the Kings racing establish
meut and stud farm at Sandringham
land Newmarket are his own private
property. The stud farm and breeding
establishments at Hampton Court Pal
ace are under the direction of the
Duke of Portland as master of the
horse, and of the crown equerry, Gen.
Sir William Ewart. The breeding of
racing horses at Hampton Court has
been abandoned since 1892, and at
present only royal carriage and saddle
horses are bred there.

kaisar and Berlin.

King Edward is particularly anxious
that his coronation ceremonies should
be free from any untoward incident
which might be construed as ominous.
This is not alone because he himself,
like all the members of his house, is
imbued with a certain amount of su-
but it is likewise because he
IS thoroughly aware that popular con-
fidence in himself and his reign will be
shaken in the event Of any occurrence
at the coronation which could be con-
strued as portending evil. Queen VIC
toria'S coronation was remarkably free
from anything that could be looked
upon by the people as Il bad omen, ana
the consequence was that the confl-
dence, reposed in her by the masses
was strengthened to such a degree as
to prove of material political adVan-
tage to her government. The corona
ton of William ". went off without
any mishap. But at the coronation of
George ". the Marquis of Anglesey,
officiating as lord high steward, while
the crown to the altar before
the Archbishop of Canterbury placed
it on the Kings head, let it slip from
his hands. He dexterously recovered
it, however, before it reached the
yble contretempS in connection with
the attempt of Queen Caroline to fore Q
ler way into Westminster Abbey, and
her expulsion by the doorkeeperS and
police.

suggestion. 1t turned out to be a happy
one and was adopted by the master Of the
