Europe the Thursday before Easter is
known as "Maundy'' Thursday. This
year it falls on April 20, on which day
the venerable Emperor Of Austria and
the youthful King of Spain will go
through their annual Maundy Thurs
day ceremony-that Of washing the feet
OF twelve beggars. This is perhaps the
queerest and most archaic of all the
quaint and ancient customs attending
the observance Of Easter in the Old
World, and that most abounding in
startling contrasts between genuine
pomp and pretended piety, gorgeous
pageantry and mock humility.

derived, implies the holy origin of the
foot-washing ceremony. 1t commemo-

divine humility. the washing of the feet
OF his twelve apostles by Him whom
Christendom halls as king Of kings. In
medieval times. when church and
throne were far more closely linked
than now, this imitation of Christ was
generally performed by European mon
archs. But long ago most of them dis
carded it for the more convenient prac-
tice of distributing doles by proxy.

MADRID. April 15.-The young King
is developing a wayward disposition
which is causing endless trouble to his
Ministers.
He consented to his projected visit
to Paris only on a condition which was
granted after every method Of persua-
sion failed to divert him from his pur-
pose; that is that he be allowed one
day on which to go around absolutely
unattended and do whatever he likes
without restraint or espionage. He in
sists that he wants to see Paris as IL
is. not merely from a royal standpoint.
He talks very freely, not TO say flip
PANTY. about the matrimonial projects
that now are being promoted on his
behalf. and he startled his Ministers a
few days ago by emphatically express
ing the opinion that the best match
for him would be not a tame young
German or Austrian Princess, but an
American girl with some millions to
her credit who would not add to the
burdens cf state by requiring a big
civil list and who. IL a revolution
should drive him into exile. would have
money sufficient to maintain their po-
sition.
Besides he is reported to have

Last year there were sixty three; this

their worthiness and respectability.
The monetary gift is supposed to be
determined by the Kings age-one
penny for each year-but he would be
a stingy monarch who would restrict
himself to such a meager measure.

purses is carried by stalwart yeo-

old man is first presented with purse
containing the equivalent of $11 25;
the women receiving So rs each. This

second round they each receive a red
purse containing SIS in gold and a
white purse holding 81 so. This lat
