At present It cannot be said that the
young king of Spain is so popular as he
might be. Many of his subjects are in
clined to look with suspicion on the fact
that he is not a true Spaniard by birth
but the son of an Austrian mother. Slow
ly but surely, however, he is winning that
popularity which a king should have
among his subjects. He has at various
times performed little acts which have
appealed to the people. says the London
Mail.
Perhaps one OF the most noteworthy of
these acts, and one which showed the
young king and his mother In their true
characters to the people. took place some
time ago in Madrid. The king, accom-
panied by the queen regent, was being
driven to the station on his way to Sebas-
tian when the queen was seen to smile
and wave her hand to a respectfully
dressed woman in the crowd Her son
also caught sight of the woman, and, rec
ognizing a former nurse of his, requested
that the carriage might be stopped in
order that he could speak to her. This
was done. and. reckoning to the woman,
who came to his side of the carriage his
majesty made few kind inquiries regard
