ALBERT AND QUEEN ids—Cross to Canada Side. King, in Oilskins, Descends Into Cave of Winds. NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y., Oct. 6— On their special train from Boston at ® o'clock this morning to view the wonders of Niagara Falls. They Planned to slight nothing of interest in spite of the rain. The length of their visit is uncertain and will de- pend on the pleasure of the King and Queen, but they probably will reach Buffalo at 10.30 P, M. At the Echota Station, where the royal party left the train, Mrs, H. A. Stone held up her twelve-weeks'-old baby and King Albert kissed it. From the station Their Majesties were taken at once to the fall's show places, After crossing Goat Isiand Bridge and getting their first view of the Ameri- can side of the falls the party pro- ceeded to the Cave of the Winds. Queen Elizabeth, clad in a raincoat and waterproof hat. green veil and gray dress, was much interested in the panorama and frequently used her camera to snap views. The Crown Prince also took a number of pictures. King Albert walked on ahead un- attended and was first to arrive at the cave landing. He at once began to don oilskins preparatory to a jour- Ney down the maze of stairs that lead to the cave beneath the Amerigan falls. “All right, King, you're ready,” said the attendant when His Majesty was rigged out for the journey. $912a Year - Not Enough to Care for Lions Six Won't Take Zoo Civil Ser- vice Test When They Hear Salary and Roar of Animals. When Jim Coyle, Curato> of the Central Park Zoo, called his first lass in Civil Service in the basement of the armory this morning there wasn't much of a class to call and there wasn't much class to those who ‘were called. Jim blames it all to the high cost of living and the short hours and high wages. He had three vancan- cles to fill and advertised a competi- tive examination for the jobs at $912 per annum. Only eight applicants showed up, two of whom had been assistant keepers and one a park laborer. The others, Jim maintains, wouldn't know a camel from @ camelopard or a cambingutan from a full-fledged orang-outang. One of the applicants, colored, claimed that he was a long-distance lon-tamer, but turned almost white when the lions began to roar and de- clared that he had only come “outa curiosity.” The Coyle goat became ‘wampant when another applicant {n- terrupted the flow of questions to ask how much they got for taking care of lions and wolves and tigers. , “It's marked down there,” turned the Curator. ‘an’t read—$912?" “Nine hundred and twelve what?” “Nine hundred and twelve doilars— @ year.” “A year!

Fundamentally the strike of workers in the big steam laundries which do the actual work of washing de appears to be one and ironing for the thousands of little Naundries. The little laundries do some work of a special nature, too. The em- ployees of the little laundries and the big steam laundries belong to the same union. Spokesmen of the strikers say that all they ask for is a wage scale that measures up to the cost of living, the closed shap, 4 hours the week's work maximum, and better working conditions in the steam and hand laundri The employers say the |taundry workers not only want pay increases ranging from 27 to 70 per cent., but desire to control the busi- ness through the closed shop, restrict the output of shirts, collars and gar- ments by reducing the number han- ded by each worker, and increase dry, thereby aiding the union mem- bership and dues. Felix Seldin, an officer of Local No, 205, at No. 143 East 103d Street, and a leader in the strike, gave The Evening World to-day what he says is an accurate list of the demands of all classes of laundry workers as respects increase of pay.
