STRICT RULES IN ROYAL STABLES Hours Are Regular--King's Own Mount Misses Master ------------ London. ~All the King's horses there are sixty of them--and all the King's men who look after them--and there are thirty of them are joy- fully welcoming the coming of spring, for it means that their morning ex: ercise will be taken outside in the spacious grounds of Buckingham Pal. ace instead of in the riding school, The sixty in the mews behind the Palace are practically all bays, They inclyde the fifteen riding horses of the royal household and the horses used for pulling the state carriages on all but historic oceasions. felt, as a groom swung back the door of the first stable, and 1 stepped on the speckless stone floor, that | was toming into a happy fami- ly, writes a Daily © Express reported in this article in that newspaper, The grooms, in their tail-coats, yel- low waistcoats, and cockaded silk hats, take a personal interest in their work. Most of them began in the King's service as boys; others have graduated from the Army They take an intense pride in their work, Each groom has two horses in his care, and there is a tacit but keen competition among them, They all want their own pair of horses to be the smartest in the stables, I would not like to be asked to ad judicate in a competition among the grooms, | think the result would be a dead-heat, Even at prize shows, where the horses have been especially attended for months beforehand, | have never seen a more beautiful display, There were a few which attracted particular attention as | wandered round, In one stall I saw a smallish brown chestnut that had, I thought, a | mournful eye. On its back was a| monogramed saddle-cloth with al crown and the letters G. R., and | above its stall the name Anzac. He is| the King's own hunter, a little fel low who came from Australia. Misses His Master "He misses the King these days," a gnarled old groom told me. "His groom rides him in the school every morning, but it isn't the same thing A horse knows his master. Anzac will be glad--as we all will be--when the King is in the saddle again." In another stable .of bays I saw a little roan. His name is Basuto, and he is the King's own pony. Basuto came from South Africa and the King is particularly fond of him, Basuto, however, was not on his dignity. His mind was on more mun- dane things, and his nose was buried deep in his hay-bag, I saw, too, Alegro, Princess Mary's favorite mount, and Husser, whom the Duke of Gloucester often rides, Then I saw Buller, Smuts, a soft-eyed bay, Lawrence Creme Caesar and Pollux; all horses who have pulled kings and queens The school is decked with flags, That is to accustom the horses to royal processions, The King's horses are not given any special diet. Like other horses their menu consists of oats, corn, bran and hay. Regular Hours There is one rule that helps to ac count for their wonderful condition. Their hours are strictly regular, Their day begins every morning at five o'- clock with a brushing from their grooms, Then they have their first meal. From six o'clock onwards they are taken in relays into the riding school for one and a half hour's exer- cise. Then they go back to their stalls, and their next meal is at 830, 11,30 they have lunch, and at their evening meal They groomed again during the day, and if they have to go out they receive special attention belore they leave and a rub.down when they come back. Every day the straw in their stalls Housewife It was on the eve of Henry Eighth's 'marriage to Anne of Cleve's, The king was in a rare Yury, "She may be beautiful, but I shall never marry such a homely wench," qquoth he. "One look at her hands is enough for me. Bah ~~sirely you would not have me make her Queen of Eng- land what hands can do? Win or lose a throne, win or lose a husband's affections," Mrs, Housewife it's not worth the chance.

A. Erskine, an old friend and trusted servant of the King, The King himself rarely visits the mews, but Colonel Erskine pays reg- ular visits and keeps the King well informed of the condition of the horses, Colonel Erskine is one of the finest judges of horses in the country, and superintends the purchasing of the King's horses, The horses are not specially bred, but are chosen from famous stocks hath at home and in the Colonies, They are broken in at Hampton Court, and come to the Palace to complete their training when they are about three years old. BIG SPERM WHALE WAS USELESS FIND Bt, John's Nfld.--A huge object moored to a local wharf recently afforded much interest to all ob- servers and furnished newspapers with a whale of a story, Not every port can provide 'the spectacle of a dead sperm whale, sxty feet long, but that is what was seen here, ' When the lightkeeper at Cape #t. Francis telephoned he had sighted a whale, apparently dead, enterprising mariners, with visions of ofl galore, immediately chart- ered a steamer, They had little diciculty in locating the monster and soon had it In tow, The whale was brought into the harbor with the expectation fit would yield some thirty barrels of oll, Then it developed there were no facilities ry for pr ing and it was decided tp tow the body to sea and set it adrift again, China now boasts a pirsie queen, But the best a more mod- ern civilization can produce is a bobbed-hair bandit.--Toronto Tele gram.
