Uses Of Masks,

Among the North American Indians
the origin of the use of masks lay"
says writer. "in the desire to con-
ceal the emotions. Thus should two
warriors meet in combat, the mask
conceals any expression. whether of
sympathy, fear or other emotion. For
instance, the knowledge that fear was
depicted on ones face and that his an.
tagonist knew it would very possibly
insure the defeat of the one whose
feelings were betrayed to the other"

colored uniforms and beautiful gowns
with flashing jewels and glittering
orders of the royal personages and
nobility.
Conspicuous among the foreign rep

Frederick's NJ. Whitridge, the United

dress, occupied first place among the
glitteringly uniformed ENJOYS, and was
consequently the most striking figure
in the whole gathering, as he stood
beside the British Ambassador. whose
scarlet uniform made striking foil
for the simple attire of the American
representative. There was numerous
array of Spanish beauties, wearing
white lace mantillas.
Arrival Of the Bridal Party.
A roar Of cheers announced the ar
rival of the bridal party at II o'clock
The reception of the party at the steps
of the church and the procession up
the nave was a great spectacle. The
Primate of Spain and the Archbishop
of Santiago, in robes covered with
heaviest gold embroidery, the former
bearing massive gold crook and sur
rounded by five archbishops and
score of bishops wearing striking
purple and violet vestments, received
the bridal party at the entrance, where
a white canopy, ornamented with gold
and borne by five priests, was held
over their heads. The procession, led
by an Anchorite with golden crucifix.
passed with slow and solemn pace up
the central aisle between the close
ranks of brilliantly uniformed princes,
grandees and diplomats, their breasts
flashing with jeweled decorations.
Made Man and Wife.
The marriage ceremony was per-
formed by Cardinal Sancha, Archbis-
hop of Toledo and Primate of Spain,
assisted by a number of minor pre-
lates. The ceremony was brief but
impressive in the extreme. For several
minutes the bride and bridegroom
knelt before the altar. the sun stream
ing on them from the great colored
windows and thousands of eyes fixed
on them as the deep, impressive tones
of the priests voice rang throughout
the church as he repeated the marriage
service. At the moment when the
couple were made one for life, Alfonso,
in accordance with a unique Spanish
custom, handed to his bride thirteen
gold coins, which are supposed to
symbolic in some way Christ and the
twelve apostles.

La GranJa.
The castle which Alfonso and his
queen have chosen for their Money
moon is the Spanish Versailles, known
as La Granja. It is quaint and quiet
spot, far removed from the inquisitiye
throngs of the capital, and with all the
picturesque and rOmatic SURROUNDINGS
suitable for royal honeymoon.
The palace is situated at the foot OF
the imposing Pico de Peaalara in the
Guadarrama mountains, high above the
sea level. The little village dates from
ancient times, when Henry Nv. built
chapel there and dedicated It to
st. Ildefonso. Later, the friars of the

place and erected magnificent palace
with surrounding parks, in the style
OF his French native country. The
fountains and water works then estab-

in Europe.
For years the Spanish kings used
this palace and park as a pleasure
resort, much as the French kings
passed their days of pleasure at Var

Count Artois, when he marched to

"A detachment of the royal body

chariot termed the Royal Crown"

gilt categorical figures standing out in
relief from the panels, and its roof was
surmounted by heavily gilded crown.
The gold-plated nodded lamps of this
carriage were especially striking, be-
ing inset with imitation jewels. The
hammer cloth,a wonderful pece of en-
broidery work, is valued at many thou
sands of dollars. The coach was
drawn by eight fine speckled grays,

ostrich plumes waved from the heads
of these horses.
Other carriages were in line and
were occupied by the royal wedding
guests. The officers of the kings

rons of the royal body guard closed the
parade.
Greeted BY Royal Subjects.
The route of the procession was
through such thunders of applause
and enthusiasm as constituted a greet

proud. All Spain and many foreigners
were in the great throng, while the
brilliance of the decorations made it
seem like driving under a continuous
canopy of garlands. banners and
arches. Red and yellow. of course,

Meantime all the audience for the

assembled in the Church of st.
Geronimo. This great old building, of
severe exterior. had been made most
imposing within. Special stands had
been erected for the accommodation of
the invited guests, the chancel and the

mountaineers. singing their melan-
choly national song ending with a
sharp war-cry "A-ju-ju".
Galicia forms very pretty group.
The fisherfolk are shown in a huge
boat with nets and ell the devices of

Route of the wedding Csrtexe.
The route of the wedding cortege has
been designed to give Princess Ena
glimpse of all that is best of Madrid,
in coming and going to the church, and
at the same time to give the people
an opportunity to sc their new queen.
The main route traverses the very
heart of the city, beginning at the west
at the Plaza de Oriente. facing the
royal palace, passing through the Gala
del Arenal and the Gale del Alcala
and the Carerra de SanJeronimo.
These are among the great arteries of
Madrid, very broad, and lined with fine
buildings. Midway in the route is the
Puerta del Sol or Cote of the Sun, and
further on that Mecca of all visitors
to Madrid, the Prado, now transformed
into a beautiful palm garden, and circl-
ed with some of the stateliest govern
ment buildings and museums includ-
ing the famous Prado gallery.
Along the way one passes the famous
equestrian statue Of Philip ~, sur
rounded by "A other statues of the old
Spanish kings. Further on is the
Opera house. not very imposing with
out, but recently transformed within
by a superb royal box in which the
new queen will soon take her place.
At the Puerta del Sol is the ministry
of the interior, facing the splendid
Plaza. Beyond is the new building Of
the Hispano-American bank and of one
of the American insurance companies.

tide of harmony flooded the sacred
edifice. as the orchestra, organ and
choir burst into a TIE Deum. which
lasted a half hour.
The bridal party left the church
with the same ceremonial which at
tended their entry, and the coach drove
off amid hearty cheers and the strains
of the Spanish royal march, while peais
of bells echoed from every steeple in
Madrid.
Return to the Palace.
The return journey was continuous
ovation. Soon after the arrival of the
royal couple at the palace there oc-
Cured dramatic episode. The Plaza
de Armas. in front of the palace, was
crowed with people anxious to catch
a glimpse of the king and his fair
young queen. Suddenly, all the
windows of the palace giving on the
balconies. were thrown open and the
bride and bridegroom stepped forth,
accompanied by the members of the
royal family and the court. The young
queen was flushed and radiant as she
appeared on the balcony, led by the
king. A great shout Of welcome greet
ed the bridal couple, which. they
graciously acknowledged with smiles
and bows.
Tonight the populace is like multi
tude of happy children Thousands are
swarming through the principal streets,
which are nearly impossible, blowing
horns, singing the national hymn, fol-
lowing the bands, and swinging colored
lanterns. Aged housewives with their
husbands from the provinces are join
ing hands with stylish city folks and
dancing to the music of street pianos
Free performances are being given in
the principal theaters and in the
houses Of the nobility all over the
land there is feasting and merrymak-
ing. At the palace tonight state
banquet takes place, to be followed by
a grand ball to which all the great
people of Spain have been invited in
addition to the princes and other en-
voys in the city. These festivities will
continue several days and it is prob
able that King Alfonso and his bride
will remain in Madrid until the end
of the week before departing for the
palace of La Granja, where the honey
moon will be passed. According to
present plans the bridal pair will
spend the summer at San Sebastian.
Parade of Spanish Provinces.
One of the quaintest features of the
wedding fetes is that in which repre-
sentatives from all the great provinces
Of Spain gather in their typical
costumes, with their native music
and dances,an even with samples Of
their local fruits and arts. The plan
of this parade is to give the new queen
an insight Of the Spanish people from
all sections. Some of the notable
features of the parade are as follows:
