ROYAL TRAVELLER
RUGBY, May 26. It is computed that the King has made 252 journeys by railway in Britain, covering 36,000 miles, since the outbreak of the war. Speciallyconstructed royal carriages, planned to give simple comforts and accommodation for their Majesties for both day and night travel, enable the King to attend to the affairs of State while in the train, which is equipped with telephones for keeping in direct touch with London.
