in dignity that no subject could as
sumo the moral stature necessary to
place the crown on the monarch's head
and thus for the moment have a posi-
ton of superiority. The real reason
is that the doughty Netherlanders are
too independent to relish the idea of
having one of their number wear a
crown, the supreme symbol of Sover-
eighty. For a similar reason the kings
and queens of Spain have never been
actually crowned since the days of the
Nisigoths.
All that Alfonso will have to do to
become king in fact as well as i'll name
will be to 90 before the senado, or SEN
ate, and take the oath to support the
constitution. There will be gorgeous
robes, state carriages, priestly anoint-
ings and a company of all the most
distinguished of Spanish grandees,
with the ambassadors and representa-
tiyes of the other royal families of Eu-
rope, but crowned heads will be con
spicuous by their absence.
He is deyotedly attached to his moth
er, and with good reason, for she has

speak Of her as that Austrian" but
who now realize that, everything con-
sidered, Spain couldn't have been in

Plans of Turf Lenders.

Clarence Mackay and William c.

their thOroughbreds to race exclusive

expected, to compete with the best
thoroughbreds in America.
Similar tactics will bc adopted by Mr..

two at the early meetings, but the ma

Mr. Whitney has fairly Iayished mon

hopes to make it the great rendezvous
Of turfmen in America. Stakes worth
from $4,000 to $4,000 will be decided.
In order TO have first class racing Mr..
Whitney realizes that high class horses
must compete, so he will limit his early
efforts on the turf this season TO a few
important races.

Hats are flatter than ever and are
either worn far back on the head with
velvet or lace ends hanging down on to
the shoulder or project far out over the
forehead in front The fiat, low shape,
broad at the sides and gracefully drap-
ed with lace arranged to fall over the
knot at the back, is the coming hat. In
fact, it has already arrived.
The Louis XIV and Louis XVI coats
Of rich brocade and lace seem bound to

Many skirts show plaits and gathers

out well round the feet in flutes when

round, but without the tail effect.
Much strapping. or rather tabbing,
with lace appliques and bands prevails,
and later. on we are likely to see a good
deal of fine hand embroidery applied
TO dresses. Indeed, embroidery and ap-
pliques and trimmings of all kinds, es-
pecially garlands and festOons of chif-
fon flowers with glace or embroidered
leaves, will be a great feature of dress
throughout the summer.

WAS better equipped for the task than
is Alfonso MIL, say his friends He
has been brought up among the most
pure and healthy surroundings, where.
as his father, his grandmother, Queen
Isabella, and every one of his prede-
CeSSors were reared i'm an atmosphere
of profligacy and vice.
Queen Christina, although an Aus
trian. is said to favor 4 Spanish prin-
cess as wife for King Alfonso. In
Bavaria lives the Bourbon prince An

ordinary beauty Dark as a Spaniard
of the CarIist type, she is graceful and

1t was hoped in Spain that this bit
Of business could be arranged before
the coronation festivities in May, but
the mutterings of revolution became
parture from the country. 1t was
planned at one time TO make the coro-

those of AIfonsos brother monarch,
King Edward VII, at Westminster alb
hey month later but the serious con

caused Il considerable change in those
plans.

consequently his playing will arouse
peculiar interest While Braid last
year defeated both Nardon and Taylor
for the title, he is thought to be inferior
in playing ability to both Of his rivals.
Strict followers of form, in fact, are at a
loss to account for his victory. Yardon
and Taylor both defeated Braid in sub
sequent contests. Braid is n Scotch
man and learned the game on the world

been decided that there will be nc
change i'm the Spanish constitution
which provides for his maiority at the
age of sixteen.
While that is the plan the queen regent
would follow, there is some doubt felt
as to the final outcome. Political con.
ditions in Spain are not rcassuring
One of the most unfortunate symptoms
of public danger is that the liberal and
enlightened statesman Sagasta insists
on retiring. This brings into promi-
nence the ambitious General Wcylcr.
Added TO this, reports have been cir.
culatcd that King Alfonso is not only
a weakIing physically, but that he has
been manifesting symptoms of men
tai breakdown. Opposed to this report
of the kings condition is the statement
of Bellamy Storer, United States min
lister 10 Spain, who recently returned
to this country Mr. Storer says the
young king is physically and mentally
sound and will take up the rens Of
