A service paper relates an amusing
story of King Louis of Bavaria. His
Majesty was much annoyed on one
occasion when the soldier on guard at
the palace gates neglected to present
arms The truth was the soldier did
not know his Majesty by sight
Why don't you present arms?" the
latter asked angrily. Don't you know
to whom you are indebted for your
daily bread
The sentry glared angrily at the
King, and, imagining him to be the
army baker, replied:
so you are the miserable son of a
baker who furnishes the soldiers with
bread, are you? Well, should like to
have you by yourself in some quiet
place Id spread your ungainly anat-
omy over three kingdoms! I'd make

In that new world which is the old;

And many merry wind was borne
And streamed thro' many golden

Of vapor buoyed the crescent bark,
And rapt tho many rosy change

IN
!. Tenn. IS ENDED
THE LEGISLATURE WILL RESUME
BUSINESS TODAY-LEGISLA
WHEELS HAVE BEEN TIED FOR
"a DAYS.
BY Associated Press.

Nashville, Tenn, June 22.-The Ten
nessee legislature will resume business
tomorrow. After a conference this
morning the fusionist members sent a
committee to the house then in session,
requesting that adjournment be taken
until o'clock this afternoon, at which
time the fusionists would be in their
seats. Tie committee, however, ar
rived too late, the house having ad-
journed until tomorrow.
Today's action marks the practical
end of the most memorable filibuster
in Tennesse's political history. Sew
enty days ago thirty-four independent
Democratic and Republican members
of the house left Nashville in the night
for Alabama, breaking a quorum in the
house and since then the legislative
wheels have been practically tied up.
The regular Democrats in both branches
however, met from day to day and
kept the session alive. The regular
session has thus extended 159 days,
for only 10 of which members have
been paid.
Indications now are that the import
ant business before the legislature will
be carried forward without delay.

monetary cmmission plan," declared
President Taft tonight in an address

The address was mainly devoted to a
careful and coherent elucidation Of the
Aldrich plan, which was warmly COM
mended as providing for the establish
ment of seven thousand national banks
Of this country on a representative
Republican basis. He declared It a
full and well drawn plan devised by a
non partisan committee to avoid the
concentration of controlling influence
either in Wall Street or Washington,
and expressed the belief that the plan
in it's general features ought to COM
mend itself to the whole business COM
munity of this country, including the
farmers and wage earners as well as
banking, railroad, commercial and
manufacturing interests.

tance telephone with Edward Hines, Of
Chicago, on the day Lorimer was
elected, in regard to a corruption fund

London, June -22.-With regal
splendor unequalled in the history of
the English nation, Georve V. was to-
day crowned king of the United King
dom of Great Britain, Ireland and the
United Dominions at Westminster Alb
bey. The great state pageant was car
ried through with dignity and i'm
pressiveness, accompanied by an out
burst of loyalty throughout the king
dom. The remotest suburb of the city
tonight gave evidence of devotion and
loyalty to the throne, each home dis
playing flags and portraits of the king
and queen.
The stirring events of the day were
carried through with smoothness and
order, which excited universal admi-
ration, no serious accident marring the
occasion. There was a murky drizzle
in the air when the morning salute
was fired, which at times turned into
showers, but even this had compen-
sating features, as fainting and ex-
haustion cases attendant upon such
occasions in the sunshine were prac-
tically eliminated.
Despite the inclement weather the
attendance of the general public in
the streets was large, but did not ap-
proach that at Edwards coronation,
probably due to fears engendered by
severe police regulations, which, under
the circumstances, proved needless.
Soon after Z o'clock carriages and
motor cars thronged the entrance to
Westminster, containing peers and
peeresses in magnificent robes, the
lord mayor in black and gold, promt-
nent Americans, Africans in native
dress, orientals. representatives from
over the seas dominions in court eos
tunes.
The first procession consisting of the
royal and other representatives start
ed at $50. At 1880 the royal salute
announced the departure of the king
and queen from the palace. This most
gorgeous procession made It's way
through streets, troop-nned and back
ed by thousands. A wonderful display
of uniforms preceded the royal coach.
The ceremony in the abbey con-
sumed three hours! The stately ritual
established by the church, combined
with the coronation rites, surcharged
with traditions of faded centuries, Sir
Parratt's impressive music and chant
ing choir, the final roll of drums and
blare of trumpets united to make the
service intensely interesting.
Their majesties sat with cleaning
crowns on their heads and gorgeous
robes outspread. The nobles's throne
were in quaint costumes. The four
peeresses attending the queen wore
shimmering gowns, while an array OF
church dignitaries in scarlet and gold
formed the center picture. Below the
ruler was the Prince Of Wales, while
above the altar was the girlish
Princess Mary, wearing the coronet OF
a peeress.
King George was crowned at 1872
| The official announcement tonight was
that their majesties had stood well the
| trying physical ordeal. They spent
| the afternoon and evening quietly, the
only guests of the palace being the
royal representatives residing there.
