KING ALFONSO'S MOODS

With a South American
HeiresS

MADRID. April king Alfonso's re
markable changes Of mood are again
causing his courtiers anxiety. It IS
feared that the sudden saddlfng Of a
small boy with the cares OF a kingdom
was too much for his mental powers.
and fear IS expressed that the Kings
mind will give way under the strain.
After the outbreak of eccentricittes
that caused such excitement last year.
he subsidized and has not since been
heard from in that connection. His en-
tourage thought that he was sobered by
the realization Of the gravity OF such
actions in a king, and seeing them in
print, particularly in America.
Becomes Vacillating.
But IT would seem that the momen-
tary SOLDERING was only another phase of
a peculiar mental condition, and. after
remaining in what was for him an IN
naturally quiet and apparently reason
able frame Of mind. he has now become
most vaciiIating. contrasting strangely
with his former quick decision in all
matters. whether right or wrong.
He now listens to any suggestions
from anybody. says Yes" at once, and
afterward does not know what to say.
His memory at times is bad and he has
great difficulty in recalling what he has
done or said Before this new mood his
hardheadedness has gone and he has re-
linquished many schemes for which he
fought doggedIy a year ago until he
triumphed with them.
His Marriage Project.
Among these is bis famous project for
marrying a plebeian millionairess from
South America, in order to do which he
had Spanish consuIs make out reports
on all marriageabIe heiresses. After a
hard fight he overcame the objections of
his mother. and the rest OF the court.
and the situation vas accepted. although
he has not made his selection. Now. how
ever, he says he does not. care whom he
marries. If he marries at all. and there
is consequently the possibility of q state
marriage being arranged.
