January 5, 1911—The explosion of a bomb in a crowd surrounding the King at Malaga killed and wounded a number of persons but Alfonso was unharmed. April 13, 1913—An assassin fired three shots at the King as he rode on horseback through the capital after a public ceremony. One of the bullets wounded his horse. Spectacular Attempt The most spectacular of these attempts upon the Spanish ruler’s life occurred during his marriage to the British Princess, Queen Vic-| toria of Spain. The church cere- mony was followed by a procession of gorgeously arrayed vehicles. It was a state affair of medieval grandeur and was attended by roy- alty from all parts of Euorpe, in- cluding the Prince of Wales, now in May 1902 when Alfonso XIII ascended the throne. Maria Christiana was a devoted Catholic and her influence added greatly in the ascendency of the Catholic church in Spain during the last quarter of the 19th cen- jtury. The last year of her reign, however, was marked by a dispute {with Rome over the rights and prerogatives of the clergy. When Alfonso XIII became King the ;&)wager Queen went virtually into retirement except for the continu- ance of her interest in charitable and religious affairs. Her two daughters the Infantas, Marie de las Mercedes and Maria Therese, sisters of Alfonso XIII, born in 1880 and 1882, died more than 15 years ago.

The Queen bride was es- corted to the coach of the British Ambassador and thence gained the' royal palace. King Alfonso was visited at the palace soon after the explosion, by the late Frederick Whitridge, of New York, who had been sent by President Roosevelt to the Spanish capital as a special envoy of the American Government to the mar- riage. Mr. Whitridge expressed the satisfaction of the American people on the escape of the royal couple. The King replied that previous, attempts had been made upon his life and that probably they would continue but that “so far a mer- ciful Providence has saved me." The following day ' Alfonso ap- have been with the Alliés. He was known in England as “a smil- ing monarch” and by reason of his spoirtsmanship was popular I'there. He is an enthusiastic yachts- man, hunter, polo player and mot- orist. During his reign Alfonso made more than a dozen trips to Paris and Vienna where he under- went minor operations at the hands| of eminent surgeons.
