PLANT DOES NOT STATE SUF-
FIClENT FACTS.

In the case of Lee Mantle against Lulu

SPANISH MONARCH
IS QUITE POPULAR
HE MIXES UP WITH PEOPLE OF HIS
REALM BUT NEVER LOSES HIS
klNGLY DIGNITY.
fBY ASSOCIATED rREss.l

Paris Sept. o.--One OF the constant
questions one hears today: What is the
king of Spain doing. how is he develop
ing, and what impression is he making
on his country?
A gentleman who has lived many years
in Madrid and whose business is to watch
the development Of matters in Spain,
says
"Thc young king is earning large pop
ularity. If left alone he would be more
popular still Left to his own way, he
loves to go everywhere to talk to the
people and to hear what they have to say.
There is no country more democratic than
Spain, and its king, to be popular, must
mix with the people.
"The young king is full Of dignity.
He loves to mix with the people; to try
to understand and make friends with
them and he never for one moment loses
sight and sense Of his position and what
is due to him.

A freak Of nature is to be seen In a
tree now growing and In full foliage
in the garden lot attached to the en-
gine-house in Haddington, at Sixty
first and Thompson streets. The tree
has three distinct stems or trunks,
which join and form one trunk. The
top foliage would be much larger, but
the tree is kept pruned to prevent
overtaxing of the roots and stems.
The stems were planted each separ.

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. IA 1871 the official census gave
the population as coz, 900, in 1882 Il
vas 76S,000, and according to the
reckoning now completed the historic
capital contains 1,173,500 inhabitants,
thus taking the tenth place among the
most pCpulous cities of the world.
Moscow covers an area of 101 square
kilometers, or only two kiloneters less
than that of st. Petersburg. Area is
not, however, by any means a 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 a
population numbering more than a
million less than that of the British
metropolis, has a total area of 795
square kilometers. The population of
Moscow is less dense than those of
st. Petersburg. Glasgow, London, Der.
lin and Paris.

Immediately after the conclusion OF
the political campaign in which Hor-
ace Greeley was showed under by u.
S. Grant, for the presidency Of the
United States, the Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher, in common with thousands
Of others, felt sad over the terrible
6esolation Of his old friend, and just
rs soon as Mr.. Greeley announced him

addressed to him the following letter:
brooklyn. Nov. 9. 1872.
"My Dear Mr.. Greeley: / read your
card In the Tribune with sincere pleas
ure. and congratulate myself and the
cause Of Journalism on your return to
a field in which you have won SO much
reputation and where you have done
such service that the history Of Amer
lea cannot be written without includ-
ing es an important part Of it your
life and services.
You may think, amid clouds CT
smoke and dust, that all your old
friends who parted company with you
in the late campaign will turn a mo-
mentary difference into q life long
alienation. 1t will not be SO. l spenk
for myself, and also from what | per-
ceiye in other mems hearts. Your
mere political influence may for a
time be impaired, but your own power
for good in the far wider field Of In

icism, and the general wellbeing OF
society, will not be lessened. but aug
mented. 1t is true that hitherto the
times called for a warrior, and such
you were; yet | cannot but think with
regret how much ability has been
spent by you that died with the occa-
sion, and which might have built up
positive and permanent elements. But
| look upon your years to come as
likely to be more fruitful and irradi-
ated with a kind and beneicent light,
which will leave your name in honor
far greater than If you had reached
the highest Office.
