THE DERBY WINNER..

King George has a happy knack of doing the right thing in the right way, and in this respect he possesses the tactful gitt which is father, King Edward, had in ample measure. It was tactful to ask Mr. Irish, une owner of the Derby winner Papyrus, to jay a visit to Buckingham Palace & day or two after the race to receive in person the Royal congratu lations, The King vas prevented from attending the Derby owing to the serious nature of the illness of Princess Christian, who was dying at the time, and Mr. Irish was not included in the guests at the usual Derby Night dinner. He was more than compensated by the Royal invitation to the Palace, and the incident has given pleasure to the racing fraternity as a whole.

It is a very singular fact that in the past 150 years since the Derby was started nó member of the House of Stanley has ever won the great distinction of pussessing i Derby winner. Lord Derby, one of whose ancestors inaugurated the classic event, mentioned this a few days ago

The betrothal of Princes Maad, the niece of the King, is made the text of innumera- ble appreciative references in the Fress. The announcement is regarded as another proof of the welcome departure from pre- 187ral No, 215 war precedent that permits members of the Boyd Family to make matrimonisl allian Les with British aristocrats. It is no longer necessary-and it never was desirable-to go abroad for some princeling. The fact is noted that the official announcement states that to the union his Majesty gladly gives Little Princess Maud, who is thirty years of age, is the scoud daugher of the late Duke of Fife and the Princess Royal, King Edward's eldest daughter, and sister of Princess Arthur of Connaught, Duchess of Fifu.
