DENIES KING DRINKS.
w. T. Stead Says Report Concerning
George V Is Untrue.

NEW YORK, May 23-Wiliam 7.
Stead in a London cable to the New
York American states that the story that
King George drinks is an Internal lie.
He says, in part
1T is pure ignorance, no doubt, which
may or may not have had some origin
in fact in the remote past, but the story
now current that the new king is a con-
firmed drunkard is neither more nor less
than an Internal lie.
so far from the king being drunk
ard, he is nearer teetotaler than any
king who has assembled the English
throne. For years past 1 know on first
hand authority from those who have lived
in his house, dined at his table and
travelled with him at home and abroad
that lie has been one of the most alb
stemiOuS of men. He has never claimed
this virtue on his part.
My father he would say, and all
the men of the older generation could
take Their wine and never be worse for
it, AS for me, l simply cannot. II l
We're to take a glass OF champagne IT
would bowl me over: hence l have to
stick to ginger ale-nOt because l like
it. but because it Is the only thing that
likes me.

The wide frontage of about sixtv-
two feet and good depth. furnishing a
total area of more tnan 5000 square
feet, as well as the convenience for the
uses of the hospital, were the determin-
ing factors. The price that is to be paid

ment on which will be inscribed record
Of his achievements and virtues will be

Punch was forty-five years old May Il.
He had not had a bit In his mouth for
twenty-thr years, and had been cared
for with every consideration for his COM
fort and welfare by Mr.. Jones for the
last fifteen years.
Woodbury. Kane's Polo Pony.
The animal originally belonged to Wood
bury Kane, who was one of the best
known polo players of his day. When
Punch became too old for use in this
home Of Mr.. Kane's uncle. Walter Lang
don. at Hyde Park. where he was kept
until the Lansdon place was sold fifteen
years ago to Frederick Vanderbilt
Arrangements were then made by Mr..

ca sion appealed to them. The grave was
half filled with flowers. Planks were laid
to slope into the excavation. and on this
form Punch was laid, carefully wrapped
in blankets with his favorite halter b.
side him. The body was lowered gently
into the grave and flowers were thrown

breeder, said that he did not think there

Charles Dickens of Duchess county. 1t
