Today was the forty-seventh birthday anniversary of borough House, June 3, 1865. His Majesty spent the day quietly: with his family. During the forenoon the members of the diplomatic corps call- ed at the palace and left messages of congratulations in behalf .of thelr re- spective sovereigns. The anniversary was celebrated in the customary man- her today at all naval and military stations throughout the empire. In London, and at all home stations, however, the official observance of the anniversary will not, take place until June 14, Today the British people, at home and in the dominions beyond: the seas will celebrate the forty-seventh birthday of King George V. Born on June 3, 1865, at Marlborough House in London, the ruler of the empire on which the sun never sets was christeu- ed George Frederick Ernest Albert. As a youth he was known as Arch er, from his great liking for a bow and arrow, and in his young manhood was generally known as the Sailor Prince since he was never more at home than on the deck of a battleship. His liking for the sea has never left him and not long ago he gratifier his eager desire for a trip In a submar- ine. Today's observance of the King s birthday will be a quiet one for the royal family; as the court 8 in mourning for the late King Frederick of Denmark, uncle of King George. About three-fourth of George's reign has been marked by.mourning. His reign necessarily began with along period in black in memory of King Edward, There followed a briet sea- son of social activity, ended by the death of Queen Mary's brother, Prince Francis of Teck. The period of mourning for King Frederick is the second this year, the firstshaving been-fer-the Duke of Fife, hustand of Princess Loulse; a sister of the King There is a theory, generally enter- tained on this side of the water, that King George has real less power than, for instance, the President of Costa Rica.

Georg 'Y., however, has given orders to his chaffeurs never to exceed the legal limit. Moreover, he has never taken advantage of the law by -which he could travel on special trains on any railroad in the United Kingdom with- out cost. The King always pays all travelling expenses, and insists upon even paying for the royal box at the theatres. King George's hobby is philately and his collection of postage stamps is one of the finest and most valuable in the world. The recent proposal to substitute a new machine for postage stamps was effectually squelched by ss, As a hunter King George, on the occasion of his recent visit to India, surpassed Col, Roosevelt's record by bagging thi tigers and thirteen rhinoceri. Gets More Mail Daily Than But Yearly on June 2 It Of all the great men of earth, Pope Pius X., who yesterday celebrated the seventy-seventh anniversary of his birth, received the heaviest mail. The average of 25,000 letters, telegrams, parcels and newspapers delivered daily at the Vatican 15 .tripled or quadripled as the birthday f His Holiness approaches and reaches the proportions of a veritable deluge each second day of June, From all over the world, from monarchs and presidents and cardinals, and from poor and humble admirers, couched in every language, by post and tele- graph and. cable, the messages of fel- fcitation pour Into the Eternal City, pir cted to that pedsant-amd:son f-a peasant who has risen to what Is, in the opitiion of millions, the most aug- ust of temporal thrones. Protestants join with Catholics to swell the chorus of-acel could be impossible for a well man and the Pontiff is far from well to read over a quarter of the congralulatory mes- sages, but none of them will go un read, Half a hundred secretaries are employed to go through the maas of correspondence, which reflects the homage of a vast army of 400,000,000 spiritual subjects of the successor of St. Peter. The Pope's daily average of 25.000 pleces of mail compares with abaut 8,000 directed to the Emperor of Ger- many; 5,000 to President Taft: 3,000 to King George, and about 1,000 to the Czar. No other ruler recelves on an average of as many as a thousand let- tera and papers daily His Holiness is also far in the lead in the number of his photographs in circulation. Millions of photographs of the Pope are sold every year and the official photographers contribute POPE PIUS WAS 77 YESTERDAY WAS DELUGED WITH MESSAGES Any. Other Man In World Is Tripled. (By 0.

The tender sentiment con- nected with such a sentiment renders it doubly attractive.

Among the antient Romans pituous month for brides, the partic- ularly favorable seasons being at full moon and at the conjunction of the sun and moon, This idea was preval- ent in the Europe of the middle ages, and has not yet died out, but it is gradually losing its sway. England began the departure from the custom Statistics which are dry things to mention in connection with romance show that in Great Britain the June bride is in the minority when com- September heads the list, with De- cember second and poor old June is relegated-to third-place. -In-the-Unit- ed States and Canada the same con- ditions do not yet prevail, but it is likely to be a matter of only a few years until June is sent to the rear.
