CELEBRATION QUITE sIMLPE
How King Oscar End Queen Sophia
Observed Their Golden We'd
ding Anniversary.
SWEDEN.
Stockholm.


King Oscars and Queen Sofas
golden wedding anniversary was. to
say the least, a quiet affair. Many
people were disappointed because Of
this. but the old king wisely decided
that there should be no unnecessary
festivities. Says Stockholm cor
respondent: 1.-THE health Of the aged
king did not permit him To take part
in any public functions of exacting
character, and the queen has never
been a friend of public functions, hav-
ing lived retired life for many years
The announced royal visitors from
abroad therefore did not arrive, and
the whole affair took on a more pri-
vate character. The only real celebra-
ton took place In the principal church
In Stockholm. Storkyrkan great
church), which is situated close to the
royal palace. and here the king, the
queen and the whole royal family at
tended by the entire court and sur
rounded by high officials of state, took
part in "A special service wherein the
archbishop and several other high
dignitarles of the church officiated.
Afterward the whole royal family took
short drive In great state, escorted
by the horse guards. through some of
the principal thoroughfares, which
were lined with troops and crowded
with cheering masses The drive over.
the king stepped out on the balcony
on the front OF the palace with the
queen by his side and received tire
nendous ovation. The king even
went so far as to make a short speech,
thanking the people, and II was re-
markable TO notice thet In spite OF
everything his voice had almost its old
strength"
A large number OF the Swedish pa.
pers have been devoting much space
to the rumored engagement OF Prince
Wilhelm, the second son OF the crown
prince. who Is at present In st. Peters
burg. to the Grand Duchess Maria
Pavlovna. This young princess-she
has just reached Ills the daughter
Of the Grand Duke Paul, who Is an
uncle OF the car. Her mother. Prin-
cess Alexandra, daughter Of Kina
George of Greece, died about fifteen
years ago. The young princess has
| been educated mostly In Paris. The
explanation Of why this ramon had
suddenly arisen Is that the news Of
Prince wiIhelm's journey to the Rus
sian court only transpired after ht
had gone. A secret journey like thai
always gives rise to speculations. I'm
| possible. of course, II II not, but II !
proves true, the betrothal can not b.
regarded as having any political I'm
portance. Prince Wilhelm viii EN-
bark within few days for his Amer
lean tour. His fancee, the Crane
| Duchess Maria Pavlovna, will receive
IN income from dover Of 200,O0t

Why Shell. Fly STRAIGHT.

Many people wonder why the cone
shaped projectiles In their . flight
through the air do not wabble, but
drive straight ahead. This Is easily
explained. Round the bottom of the
shell Is a narrow band Of copper which
varies in width according to the size of
the projectile. Being made Of soft
metal. this band Is cut by the steel
rffing OF the gun on the shock of ex-
piosion. This action causes the shell
20 revolye with lightning rapidity. with
the result that IL keeps steady during
its fight through the air. = London
