DENMARK'S NEW KING. The Accession of Frederick VIII Publicly Proclaimed in Cop enhagen Yesterday. Copenhagen, Denmark. January 30. -The new King, Frederick VIII. now reigns over Denmark. His accession has been hailed with all appropriate eathusiasm and ceremony. but sor row-for the death of Christian IX. is the predominant sentiment. The overwhelming grief of the immediate members of this remarkably united ofmily .is reflected in only a slightly less degree in every home in Copen hagen. Throughout the earlier part of the day the lugubrious tolling of bells, the booming of minute guns, the uni versal .evidences of mourning and the stagnation of business, even amid the strangely contrasting acclaims for the new King, told strongly of the deep feeling of the people of Denmark for the ruler whose remarkable ea reer had ended so sudenly. In a chamber of the Amalienborg Palace the body of the King lies in the modest bed in which he breathed hisJast. The door of the chamber is guarded by the king's adjutants as a gna<Lof honor. Following the wishes of King Christian, the funeral will be attded. with little ceremonial. Frederick VIII was proclaimed king at noon today in Amalienborg square, in front of the palace. The ceremony lasted only a few minutes. The premier, M. Christensen, appear ed. on the balcony of the palace and ainounced to the 50,000 persons as sembled below of the death of King Christian IX and the accession of his eldest son. The premier then called for cheers for King Frederick VIII. The new ruler of Denmark joined the premier on the balcony and in a short speech declared that he would rule in accordance with the example set him by his father, and trusted that the same accord between the king and the nation would continue as heretofore. His Majesty concluded with calling for cheers for the fath erland. King Frederick received a warm hearted greeting from the assembled erowd, -whose cheers mingled enthus iastically with the national anthem. King Frederick who is a great ad -mirert of the United Stat.es, today ex pressed himself asbigspecially af feeted by the condolences of Presi dent Roosevelt in behalf of the Amer ican nation. 36s A CucoQ. B etroit Free Press. This story was told recently at a smoker given b Mic iniga iof. the Universit# otlicia at Chicago. "A young man and his wife, unot lonppa~rried,' said.the relator of the incidxh "lived down on the soutl side where they had a prett,y little two story brick. One of their yecd ding .presents was a large clock whieh told the hours and half. hours -by rreans of the cuckoo's cry instead of by'the usual chimes or the sounding of a bell. One night the college fra ternity of which the man was a mem ber, gave a banquet, and it was ac cordingly late when he arrived at the front. door of his home. He thought that discretion was the better part of valor, so that when he got inside he began to remove his shoes before go ing up the stairs. Unfortunately he was not very happy in the execution of this act, for one of his shoes slip-. ped and made a noise that could be heard all over the house. A moment later his wife's voice came from the head of the- stairway: " Is that you, Charles?' 'Yesh, dear.' ' What time is it. Charles?' 'Bout 12.' " And then,' said Charles in tell ing the incident afterwards, 'that blamed clock began to cry out. But it euckooed only three times and I had to stand there like a fool and cuckoo the other nine.'
