Aside from tho great war. Francis Joseph's reign, was one of the most eventful in history, lie saw the Frencli monarchy go down, 't lie second empire rise and crumble, flic commune flare briefly, and the republic of today rise; on its ashes; he saw the black pinions of the Prussian eagle stamped on the flag of the new Herman empire later to tower threateningly over Austria itself; he saw the papacy shorn of its territorial demesne, while about a blickering family of petty principalities was wielded into united Italy; he saw Spain, once the greatest of colonial powers, lose the last of her dependencies in two oceans; he saw Japan opened to western civilization, and later defeat the sprawling colossus of two continents; he saw the most ab solute despotisms Russia. Turkey and Persia concede representation to the people: he saw at a distance; the United States cement its federation -with the blood of a great internecine war, and he saw his own brother prove that monarchy could not take new root on American soil. In his own country he faced internal dissensions and exh'rual aggressions from the moment he came to Ihe throne, liy the war of 1S."9 with France and Sardinia, he was forced to cede l.oinbardy to Italy; by force of arms and treaty he lost the duchy of llolstein to Prussia and Venice to Italy; and by the revolt of Kossuth, the Hungar ian patriot, he barely escaped having his dual empire cut in two. lint in human interest his personal sorrows overshad owed all. One after another they came upon him. In 185:! the list of tragic incidents began with an attempt upon his own life. In 1807 his brother, the Archduke Maximilian, after three years' experiment as emperor of .Mexico, was captured by the army of the patriots and condemned to death by a court martial, whose sentence was executed notwithstanding intercession in his behalf by the govern ments of the United States,' England and Prussia. There followed the burning to death of a niece in Vienna; a sister' met similar fate in Paris, and a cousin drowned himself in Stahrenherg lake. Yet these were but minor tragedies in comparison with that which befell th? ancient house of the llapsburgs in 188!), when Rudolf, the imperial prince, upon whom the Austrians pinned their hopes, met death in a mystery which to this day is not cleared. : Clouded in still deeper mystery, if possible, was the disappearance that same year of Francis Joseph's favor ite 3iephw, the Archduke Johann Salvator. Heir to the throne at the death of .Rudolf, he renounced all his imperial dignities and fled the country as John Ortli, captain of a merchant ship, never to be heard of again. The next of kin, the Archduke Francis Ferdinand, who became heir presumptive, added a further burden to his uncle's heart by morganatic marriage to Sophie, the countess of Chotek. It Wiis he and his wife who were assassinated at Sarajevo in .June, 1!) It. lint it is doubtful if any or all of these reverses weighed more heavily upon the emperor's heart than the tragedy at (leneva, when the Empress Elizabeth, who had been called the most beautiful woman in Europe, was stabbed to death by an Italian anarchist, in 1898. (iossip dealt plentifully with his private life, filled with romance and nnstortune. As a soldier, tlie emperor was beloved of his arinv. In a crushing reverse by the Frcn at Solferiiio, he suffered such humiliation that he is said to have wished to die with his men; that he stood motion less in the fire of a battery, hoping to be struck down. Ih't none of his reverses made hint any the less popular ,tl home. His popularity reached beyond the army. He was truly the idol of his people, and especially at Vienna. His tall, gaunt figure was familiar to (-very Viennese. 11c rode through the streets unguarded, bowing to toe saluta tions of his loving people, lie was imperial, eral ic. and for years he held weekly audiences common people, at which any one of his sub, ai 'iical in him the riirhtini:' of a wivmr. (Continued From Pago Ono.) eig and the news of his deaili, puMish-ii about 11 o'clock, had a paralyzing ef fect upon the public. All amusements at once were suspended. ('Umax of Tragedies The death of Kruncls Joseph Is a remarkable climax to the long list of tragedies in tiic llupsburs family a list unparalleled la any oilier rolguing house in Kurtipe. lie dies in the mid.-t of the world's greatest war, which he, himself. largely brought about by his iPMerniliiulion to avenge the act of assassination of his heir, the Archduke Francis Fer dinand, an the result of an alleged Serbian conspiracy while on tt state visit to Itosnia on June US llill.
