scores of animals. but the population of the Royal News has shrunk con- siderably in recent years until now but S5 splendid specimens of car- riage and riding horses remain as against the normal figure of 165 in pre-War days
 Each horse has his name over his manager, and has his special duty as- signed to him on the roll of the Mas ter of the Horse. Here are the state coach horses. the special carriage pairs, the Queens barouch horses, the Kings chargers. the horses of the Prince of Wales, Prince Henry and others.
 The principal attraction of the coach houses is the great state coach which is used for coronations and few other very special occasions when royalty is expected to put on all the style it can muster. It weighs 4l1 tons is 24 feet long and was built 160 years ago.
 Harness In Cases.
 In the adjoining harness room Is displayed in large glass cases the eight sets of red morocco leather harness overlaid with gold used by the eight horses that draw the great state coach. Each set of trappirgs is cut from a complete hide so that there is no joint in the leather. Gun metal overlaid with gold was used for all the metal work. the eight uets costing f15.0oo.
 The Master of the Horses has very little to do with the practical run ming of the royal stables. That is done by Captain Benbow He is far too great a parsonage for work of this kind. He is paid f2,5oo a year and must be peer to be qualified for his position. He Is a political ap- pontee, and when there is q change in the political complexion of the he is among those who | ose their jobs and have to make way for somebody who is of the same po- itical faith as the party that has come into power.

UNEMPLOYMENT IS
 SCARCE IN SWEDEN
Country Is Solving Situation.- Less Than SS,000 Out of Work

Stockholm, Aug. 12-Sweden seems to be approaching a successful solu- ton of her unemployment problem It has been one of the most difficult that the country had to deal with of late years, and only recently has the government clearly seen light ahead in this troublesome situation.
 official Report.
 According to the latest official re- port of the government unemploy- ment commission, the total number of unemployed in Sweden Ia now un- der s3,oo0 which is less than one-half Of the figure recorded at the begin ming of this year. About one hundred individual provincial communities have reported a complete cessation of unemployment, while the general demand for labor shows a decided in- crease. The government expenses for relief work during the first five months of this year amount to about 31,ooo,ooo kronor, but owing to the rapid reduction in the number of men without work, considerable saw ings are expected.
 Future Relief.
 The unemployment situation will be further relieved in the near future by the placing of government con- tracts for 27.oo0,o0o kronor with va rious industries. The state railroads are going to place large orders for rolling stock, signalling apparatus, structural steel work for bridges and other reconstruction work The Wa terfalls board will apply several mill lions Of kronor toward continued cleo trification. the construction of pow CT stations, and canal repair work, while the department of communica- tions will order new telegraph cables and construct new lines.
 Agricultural Colonies.
 Minister of Finance Thorson. in a recent speech. said that even when Swedish industries reach the 1914 level of activity there will be about 10000 supernumerary workers for whom employment must be found, chiefly in agriculture. To meet this situation preliminary work is now be- ing done for establishing agricultural colonies for. the unemployed. and the back to -the-so project, the minister said. will be one of the main ques- tions for next years Riksdag to settle.

TO HUNT FOR OLD
 ANIMAL FOSSILS
Field Museum to Send Out Elpe- dition for Prehistoric Bits
 -e

Chicago, Aug. 12, (By Associated PressJ.-A five-year's hunt for fos- sils of extinct species of mammals which appeared 55o,ooo to 2,ooo,ooo years ago will be begun next October when Prof Elmer S. Riggs. associate curator of paleontology of the Field 1 Museum of Natural History and three assistants will sail for Buenos Aires on the first leg of their journey. Their expedition will be the sixth this year from the museum. t
 Sometime during the geological yesterday many species of warm blooded mammals predecessors to the animal life of today. began to appear in South America. Most of these were unable to cope with the tremen- dous climatic and geographical changes which took place and gradu- ally vanished from the ranks of liv. ing things
 After exploring the Argentine pampas. from the pampas the party will strike southward along the At- lantic coast as far as the Straits of Magellan. Tn places the work will be along beaches where the ledges are exposed and accessible only a few hours during the day.
 Where Hunt Starts
 In the extremity of Patagonia, land Of strange legends and folk. story the party will search for fossil remains of unique and much more ancient animals, which were residents of South America in the ages when it was almost as widely separated from its northern sister. North Amer tea. as Australia Is now separated from Asia This isolation accounts for strange fossils In that ancient land. From the Straits the party will turn inland and the search will be extended westward over the barren, wind-swept plains to the base of the Andes.
 Prof. Riggs vii take with him an elaborate equipment so that the party will be prepared to travel and sub. sist in any region which may offer problems of interest. For the most part travel will be by motor truck. Where this method is found impos- sible the motor will be supplemented by saddle and pack animals. In ad- dition. a canvas motor boat will be carried for use on inland waters. By these methods it is expected that the most inaccessible regions may be ->..A-A
