KING GEORGE IS
 SITTING FOR PICTURE

London, March 30.-(Special)-ln the midst of an unusual press of state du- ties King George hassto give M. Louis Gilct, the distinguished French painter. a sitting for the coronation on naval re- view picture. which Is to be presented to his majesty by the French govern ment
 ''I capi ot express" said Nj. Gilot last night, the suitability and consideration which his majesty has shown me. l was. l admit, profoundly moved. That was nat ural, was 1t not? To find oneself in the presence of great sovereign is an ex- perience which may well make the heart beat faster.
 Hut after a very few moments the King had put me entirely at my ease. need not tell you that he speaks French admirably. He chatted to me with the greatest kindness and showed much interest in my picture. I was, of course, only making a study of him. But he gave nc nearly an hour and put on his naval uniform on purpose. He posed admirably and with great patience. And he promised me another sitting. which will help me very much.
 Yesterday 1 made a sketch of the Queen. Their majesties, as you know, will be seen on the deck of a royal yacht with the Prince of Wales and Princess Mary. I found her a very good sitter, far better than most ladies' AS rule they are restless and soon tired. Her majesty set an excellent example of con centration. She Is most thoughtful and kind also. Today as I was to be at the palace and she was sitting to Mir Llewwllyn for a portrait in her coron- atlon robes. she sent me word that might make study of them at the same time. This will be for my picture of the coronation ceremony.

KING AND GROWN
 PRINCE TAKE WALK

Paris, March a.-(Special.) )-Holding his son. the 10-year-old crown prince, by the hand, the King of the Belgians went for an early morning stroll through the Paris streets profiting by wait of three hours for the express to take the royal visitors, who had been attending the funeral of the Grand Duke of Luxeu- burg, to the south of France.
 It was a beautiful morning and the streets were flooded with a dazzling sum light so the King rejected the motor car offered by the French secret service in-- -spector, and decided to take his son for a walk and show him in person the beauties of Paris entirely alone. Without any escort, father and son started off hand in hand from the Care du Nord walking unrecognized through the crowds of workmen and workgirls going to their work.
 After admiring the opera and its gilded pinnacle sparkling in the sun, King AL bert and Prince Leopold strolled down the Grand boulevard where the shops were just opening and the flower sellers were stacking great sheats of Parma Iiolets, carnations, llacs and roses un their stalls. At kiosk the King bought a newspaper, proffering one of the new Belgian coins bearing his effgy. AL though Belgian money is currency in France. the old woman, not recognizing the unfamiliar head of the coin hesitated about accepting it, so King Albert laugh ing, rendered French franc piece.
 But the street clock showed that the hour of the train was approaching so the royal visitors keeping up their in- cognto to the last. descended to inc Metropolitan railway, the King taking his place in the file of work people and paying for two first class tickets Ike any other person.

the weary gaze of 9 eurIous bud surfeIt sd

the weary gaze of a curious but surfeit ed generation.
 In the province of Khartoff a cause celebre In which churches were sold, has just been terminated. Tn St Petersburg q railroad case is coming to a close, which shows how enormous sums of money stuck to the offiical hands through which they should have passed Today another legal drama is Hginnlng in which officers of the commissariat depart ment play a curious but, one must add, traditional part. But here the sameness of the proceedings is relieved by d touch of low comedy; a number of smiling spin sters fit gaily across the scene, receiving heavy fees for supplying the army with boots, willing away the time of the off- cial purveyors and serving as foci to ra- diate fun and good humor around them.
 Given the downfall of the French re- public, what regime will take it's place This may seem a rather puerile question to ask inthese days, but 1t has been asked } in France, and asked with such point and vehemence that d serious duel has been occasioned by it. The duellists were M. Paul de Cassagnac. the director of the "Autorite," and M. Charles Maurrass, the director of the Action" which, with its imposing array of Kings Hawkers, Is faithful to the Duke of Orleans And. as NJ. Maurrass has still another duel on the tapis arising out of the question of the regime" and as another heir of the line of the role of Napoleonic claimant to the French throne. the question is no longer as ''peurle'' as it might appear.
 In fact, there is in France today a keen, though imperceptible, awakening of the old Nopoeonic spirit The expected birth of a child to Prince Victor Napoleon anl his Belgian princess, who is destined. If he lives. to carry on the claims of the great Napoleon. has stirred the imagina- ton of the French people as no event has done since the birth of the King of Rome. It Is not in Paris that this awakening Is most perceptibe.' It is in the south-in the Basque provinces and on the Rhine from tiers-that memories of Napoleon are being revived. Around the vineyard home stead firesides the grandfathers are tell ing the story of how their wives fought with the victor of Austerlitz and Wagram Others revive the errors of Moscow. For the name of Napoleon still has magnetic ring in provincial France.
 And now that a fully royal heir to all the Bonapartes is expected that miracu- lous- name is tingling the ears of the French once more. They cannot help but ask, What will be his destiny2"

of his holiness ever since he succeeded to the pontifical throne has been to car ry through policy of reform, and one of the guiding principles of his policy has been that you cannot reform the people without a preliminary reform of the clergy. Several recent decrees by the Pope which have aroused much discussion have had this object in view but the forthcoming document, if apparently trustworthy reports be true. will have an enormous effect upon the ecclesiastical world.
 One of the, leading provisions of the new decree. according to the Trbuna. will be that no priest can be ordained until he has reached the age of 28 years. His holiness will. it is stated, set forth the reasons which have induced him to initiate this re- form. which will come into force at the beginning of next year. It has been maln- tained that aspirants to the priesthood have been allowed to take the serious VOW of chastity at too early an age and in deferring the period of ordination his holi- ness thinks that candidates will have more time to prepare themselves for their se- rious vocation. Candidates for the priest hood under the age of 2s may become as- sistants to the clergy without however, sacerdotal ordination, and they will have to undergo course of five years study of theology and the Holy Scriptures. There vii also be change in the age for receiving what are known as the minor orders, the subdiaconate and dlaconate. The assistant to the clergy, not being or dained to the priesthood, will not be able to say mass or hear confessions; but they will be able to baptize, give communion. carry the vaticum. preach and so forth. One of the results of this reform will undoubtedly be a temporary dimnution in the number of priests. but their char acter will be more mature.
