(By Leased'Wire to The Times.) Madrid, May 10. The queen of Spain today gave birth to a son and heir to the Spanish throne. rims is the nrst time in many generations that the nrst child of a king and queen of Spain has been born a male. The announcement from the im perial palace that Queen Victoria had presented her subjects with an heir to the kingdom was hailed with great enthusiasm by the thousands who gathered About the palace after the formal announcement had been made. . -As soon as the sex of the child was ' 'known the waiting populace were notified by a salute of 21 guns, fired from the palace grounds. ' Next to the enthronement of a king the birth of a son and heir to the royal parents is the most Impos ing ceremony,-at the Spanish court. Following the custom of centuries the baby is placed on a huge gold plate immediately after birth and presented to its father.- The king himnelt . accompanied by Queen Vic toria's" Spanish and English physi cians on either side,'-walks down a long line of functionaries. All of whom .bow profoundly; . , , s , - Thanking ,alk fa . wherc.tlui prima "minister . -Ui. standing. 'After detfenniabrthtxot nie chid.he aancnincesr."' ' ' "It is a prince.- God bless the prince." . - This is the signal for prolonged applause. Then the king, still carry ing the prince, walks through a long line of ambassadors and exhibits the baby to each of them In turn. The next step in the unusual cere mony is the taking of -the infant to the notary of the. palace. He has a book In which is recorded the sex of the child, the date, hour and place of Its birth. The book relates to the ancestry and parentage of the child for the last 600 years. This task accomplished the king hands his son over to the mistress of the robes. Then the little one is taken to its magnificent layetted klay-ette and presented to its mother. -As soon as she is able the queen proceeds to the church of the atocha, where she gives thanks for the birth of her child. Then follows the bap tism,, which is accomplished with as much pomp and ceremony as the birth of the child. More than one hundred Spanish women have been working for months on the baby's- wardrobe, which is magnificent. The christen ing and presentation robes of the new pair will be the same as those worn by King Alfonso. AREA IN WHEAT FAR BELOW LAST YEAR'S (By Leased. Wire to The Times.) Washington, May 10.
