SAN PEDRO, Calf, April 23.-The

ginia has established a world record
in anti-aircraft gunnery. Nine direct
hits were scored on an aerial sleeve

officers said today. The hits were made
by the starboard five-inch guns of
the superdreadnaught.
The four-inch battery ripped 16'
foot cylindrical sleeve, tOwed across
the ships beam at speed of 40 miles
an hour by torpedo plane at an alti-
tude of approximately 1900 feet.

then came summons which brought me to the Hotel
Bellevue in Brussels. That evening carriage
called and at nine o'clock dropped me at square
called the "Place du Trone," one side of which was
bounded by the grim stone wall of the palace
gardens. AS came to a little wooden door in the
wall it flew open and the voice of Leopold said:

He was absolutely alone and Economically led
me through the long moon-lit gardens to little back

When catch cold it is not who has been stupid |"
Leopold seems to have been of the first to
realize that colds contagious If anyone sneezed
in his presence he would turn around and tell the
that he would not need him any more that
day.
For this reason learned to suppress sneezes,
because it might be inconvenient to be banished from
the royal presence But also turned sneezes to
good account. Once or twice when it was important
that should have few hours to myself obtained
the desired liberty by just sneeze Once when a
designing woman wished to the king, effectively
prevented it by casually mentioning that the poor
dear suffered from hay fever. Leopold said that he
did not know that. did not know it either but it
was done for his own good as well as mine.
Every morning of his life begun by having
three buckets of salt water dashed over him. The
newspapers he read first carefully ironed out
as flat and smooth a pocket handkerchief. His
Majesty said that this was because annoyed
him, but suspect that he really had it done to kill
any microbes of colds other diseases that might
be lurking in the paper
Nevertheless, these and other precautions seem
to have paid him, for he astonishngly healthy
and vigorous man, with body much younger than
his years would indicate. He had tireless energy to
pursue anything that interested him. including
women.

becoming arrangement possible, which added to my
happiness and attractiveness. Though king he was
in many ways most consderate lover, IN more ways
than one, not to be laughed at.
At five in the morning, stepped out of that little
wooden door into the Place du Trone, where the
carriage was waiting to start back to Paris Once
a week this went on for long time and never once
think we were always under someone's eye. Palace
walls have eyes and ears and palace servants, like
owls, can see in the dark. When the king was away,
members of the court bribed the servants to show
them our love nest. All the kings horses and all the
kings men could not get him privacy. / was the

Things went on like this until one September
Monday the queen went to Spa in Italy to take the
cure and went to Luchon in France with the king,
who was living ncognito, that is as incognito as
man could be who advertised his identity with that
famous beard One day while l shopping, he
left hastily for Spa. Two evenings later, as was
leaving the hotel voice behind me said:
''Vive la Reine!" ("Long live the queen!)

Government to watch over His Majesty's person and
my near-majestys. He informed me that Queen
Marie Henriette had died that day-but as to the

not quite possible, but that it was far from
ridiculous.

ing with my maid. Yet all the staff
took pains to exchange mods and
smiles with me.
In other ways the King was anus
ing. He was most fastidious about
his health, particularly in guarding
against colds. i will never forget
the first time one of our outdoor
meetings was marred by rain. AS
always, was at the trysting place
first, and imagine my surprise when
the royal carriage drew up and out
stepped the King of the Belgians
arrayed in hip-high rubber boots,
long oilskin coat and an oiiskin "sou-
wester," such as sailors wear in
stormy weather. All this parapher-

drizzle!
1t was the most complete water
proof outfit man could buy, but
Leopold had added an invention of
his own, which almost made me
laugh in his royal face. From his
chin hung long black patent
leather pouch, suspended by straps
and buttons. from his hat. This was
to keep dry the patriarchal beard.
Years later. when my position was
strong enough to safely indulge my
irreverent curiosity, asked him
why he was so afraid of getting rain
drops on his beard. He had a good
answer:
when woman washes her hair
she must dry it carefully before
going out, or she will catch cold
in the head. A damp beard gives
me cold in the chest. Colds are
bad; they are weakening, and
shorten ones life. A cold always
means that someone has been stupid.

ing now to hold a hearing on the
disputed tax levy of the city SAM
tary board so 1t probably will be

matter" This was the assertion of
I John j. Brown, member of the State
tax board, today when asked when
the board would hold hearing on
the $0065 levy for the sanitary
board, as ordered by the Supreme
Court in rendering a decision on the
appeal Of the city council.
= The confusion arose from dis
pute between members of the city
council and Mayor Shank as to who
had the power to fix levy. Shank
decreed that the sanitary board was
entitled to only $OO55 levy where
as the council raised him a cent and
was upheld by the Supreme Court.
The State board at present is re-
viewing the assessed valuation of
personal property in various counties
and making adjustments wherever
figures of county assessors appear
to be wrong.
According to William A. Hough of

have suffered heavy losses in taxable
property whereas northern counties
show an appreciable gain.
