Despite the many lugubrions muses of day anti-sport individuals, the groat majority of Englishmen feel proud of the Pring of Wales's close connection with our leading sport. We have heard a good deal ahont Royalty of late, and will the grant reign of Her Most Gracious. Majesty the Quash on everyone's lips, we are not likely to allow our loyal feelings to he. casily damped by visits from Czars of Emperors from foreign lands. The Empress of Austris, by her fearless riding in the hunting field, has exercicil a wonderful infiarnos for good ;. the King of the Belgians is a warm admires of 150 PIANOS FOR cycling, and so ulo is the King of Denmark. In IIIRE O MONTHLY no country, probably, is there quite so much familiarity known between the Royal House and
PAYMENTS. the people as fu Donutark, and those who have noted the extraordinary care with which every dovement of a recent royal visitor to Balmozal pus guarded, would be astonished at the freedom with which the King, Queen, and other mom- bors of the Royal Family of Danmark move abeat. Considering his great ags, King Chris- tinu is wonderfully active and alot, and few would guess his age more than sixty at first sight At the championship cycle races in Copenhagen, beteak the liveliest interest in the different orents, and asked that A. A. Chase should be presontod to hiznaolf and the Queen after he had won the 50 kilometres race. It was rather a trying ordeal for the youthful Lon. doner, having to free so many royal personages without u momenta preparation, bift Alfhnagh a little confused ho vame out of his "introduc tion" eplendidly. The Itanes are splendid! Jorai, and look upon their King as a real friend to a rather than as a ruler. We had un Opportunity of meing nearly the whole of the Royal Family of Doamark, and everyone of the English party were struck with the youthful appearance of the party, from the King and -Queen-downwards. Tho Dowager Fanpress DỂ Pussia still preserves that kindly, sympathetic face we know so well in our own beloved Princess of Wales, but it was easy to see that ile greatest grief of her life had not boon' entirely aengel There seems good reason for believing that peling will make yet greater inroale into Royal circle than it has hitherto done, and I think we may venturo to say that Royalty well as our sports will benefit from still closer connpotion.

Danish Royal Hors, I should just like to re- post a pretty little story I heard whilst in the Danish capital. A parts of us had ascended the Bound Tower the Ronde Taari"), notablo structure in Cepentagon. To gain the eammit szaling pathway has baan ennstructed, so that if should be quite possible for a carriage or n cycle to be driven from door to roof on the simi ing path. It is related in connection with this Tower that upon one occasion Pater, the Great of Russia was gazing from the summit in com
with the King of Denmark. Said the former: "I am ouder any of my subjects to trust himself down from this height, and my bidding would be fulfilled Couldst thon do that, my royal brothor "No," replied tho Daniel King, bat." he added, with a proni Emile. "I con lay myself to sleep in the lap of aly of my subjacto. Couldst thon do that, my inporial, brother ?". This is just an instance of the Affection existing between the Royal Family and the people of Denmark, which may be equalled but cannot be excelled anywhers.
