A characteristic story is told of the
new kings way OF meeting awkward
questions. Just before his fathers
death he was asked what his opinion
was of the Socialists and of the demo-
cratic movement generally. "Well," he
answered, "in other countries / am
quite inclined to Socialism and demo-
cratic ideas. but you can hardly blame
me for feeling little royalist in Swe-
den." The motto which he assumed
when he ascended the throne was
with my people for the fatherland."
Knows Real from Sham
A parsimonious man is Gustaf ",
because he loves his people and hates
show and luxury. He has come through
the fires of aff1iction in his life and
better-what Is real and
what sham. A silent man with clear
views of things and eagerness in living
uprightly. He will be heard of in the
years to come as the most strenuous,
simple and democratic of monarchs.
Equally interesting in their way, per-
haps, are his eldest son, the present
crown prince, and his charming Eng
lish wife; the prince engaged in his
archaeological studies and the digging
out of the graves of dead and gone
vikings; the princess, already a per-
feet Swedish scholar endearing her
self to the people by innumerable
works of charity and foremost in every
cause, including temperance, which Is
calculated to promote the welfare of

by asking each in turn to state his or
her grievance. He listened very pa

you are all quite right" he said;
"you should have told me of this
earlier. l shall see that your wages
are raised.'' And raised they were.
King Oscars servants when they
heard that the crown prince had raised
the wages of his servants, struck in
turn, but were very rudely reprimand-
ed by the chamberlain and informed
that their demands could not be grant
ed. This came to Gustaf's ears, and
one of the first steps he took when he
came to the throne was to order COM
mission to be formed to inquire into
the wages of the royal servants. And
he had not been seven days king
before he had ordered the formation
of another commission to inquire into
the whole question of invalid insur-
ance and to draft a measure to be
laid before the rigsdag.
The new king is an absolute teeto-
taller, an out-and-out total abstainer.
During his crown princely days he did
much by the force of example to
den is a country with five millions of
inhabitants, and of these half a million
are organized total abstainers. Tenn
perance is serious matter in Sweden.
The king has had no official dinners
yet, as the court is still in mourning,
but there was an informal dinner the
other night to which numerous digni-
taries generals and court functionaries
were invited There was not a single
bottle of imported wine on the table,
not a drop of spirits of any kind. The
distinguished company was regaled with
the notwithstanding fruit wines of the
country, and it will interest the friends
of temperance in America to hear that
probably for the first time in his
tory the health of king and queen
was drunk in Band of Hope beverage,
and that there were absolutely no evil
effects following.

during the last autumn maneuvers, he
invited a large number of young Of

KING. GUSTAV
DEMOCRATIC
TO THECORE
WILL SPEND NO MONEY FOR
SNOWY CORONATION
is AS STRENUOUS AS THEODORE
ROOSEVELT
Has Warm Love for His People and
In All Things Is Simple and
Without Affec-
tation

O TOCKHOLM, March 21.-The most
democratic king in the world, per-
~ haps the most democratic king who
has ever reigned, is the remarkable
man who has just succeeded King Oscar
on the throne of Sweden.
Gustaf ". is hardly known even in
his own dominions. Outside them he is
absolutely unknown. He has never
travelled much. Even as a young man
in the flush of life he had no desire to
see men and countries. He knows little
of London, Paris, Monte Carlo and the
delights of the Riviera. His longest
journeys in late years have been to
Carlsruhe to accompany his delicate
wife, princess of the house of Baden,
back to Sweden. But he knows every
corner of his own land and has repeat
edly declared that Sweden is the most
beautiful country in the world, and
that in all the universe there are no
men so strong and capable as the men
of Sweden and no women so beautiful
and virtuous as his countrywomen. The
Swedes have resented his shy, retiring,
self-contained ways, but they are proud
that to the very innermost recesses of
his heart he is one of themselves.
What manner of man is this new
Swedish king, this descendant of Ma
poleon's Marshal Bernadotte? Before
all things he is strenuous. The future
is going to show this. There is abso-
lutely not a shred of nonsense about
him.
The other day he wrote to the min
lister of his household that he desired to
see him about the coronation festivities
in the old coronation city of Upsala.
The minister was delighted, for he
looked forward to gorgeous ceremony
and a lavish display of the ceremonial
connected with this act from the ear
liest times. He came to the palace at
Stockholm and the first words the king
spoke gave him a nervous shock from
which he is only slowly recovering.
Says No Coronation
my dear minister" said King Gus
taf. "I am not going to have any coro-
nation. That coronation in Upsala
costs at least $500,000 and is of abso-
lutely nop use to me or to anybody else.
/ can quite imagine that the grand old
ceremonial, with its mystical rites and
with the amounting which the arch
bishop will confer, are highly priced
by my people. but, between you and
me, do you not think that l shall get
the rigsdag will be able to find much
better and holier use for that $500.000?"
Yes the amazement of the minister
was a picture. He told the king that
this was a terrible blow to him. Upsala,
he said, was the town immemorially
connected with the brightest periods of
Sme6ish history; even in the gray times
