peror Franz Joseph, and c-nci:

time there was speculation as to the cfect it would have on the continuance of the struggle as far as AustriuIIunK.iry was concerned. At last theexpected death has come and the asred Emperor Is resting in the vault of the Capuchin Church, anion? his Illustrious ancestors of the House oC Ilapsburg. His years on earth were far tit-'ivo the average, and his reipn among the longest of the rulers of kingdoms, at..! he also had more than his share f

leanitiK toward Prussia and he has hid little dealing with Emperor William. The Archduke Ferdinand was a favorite of the Kaiser, and around him the mi'.'.yry party gathered. The oppos'intr. party looked upon the Archduke Cbarlcs Francis as the Moses to lead them to peace and prosperity. Perhsps the most striking indication given by the new Emperor with regard to his feelires toward Emperor xtVil'lara was when last summer he invited Count Leopold Berchtoid

A I.ovc Ma to!i. Wlute still a boy the Archduke Chi- ries fell in love with the Princess Zita, the daushter of tlx- Duke of ; I'arnia, of the historic House of Bourbon. Tho father represented the Ppantsh-Ualiin branch of the family. : Much of the childhood of the. new 1 Empress was spent in France at the i c-Iehrated royal Chateau of Chambord ; which her father Inherited from his ' uncle. Henry the Fifth of France, a ! part of the education of the Princess Zifa v.-as received at the Benedictine j Convent on the Isle of Wi.crht. where i two of hier sisters are living as nuts

at the present day. Both the Empress and her husband speak Er.slish fluently, the now ruler being the first of the Hapsd-urga to have a perfect command of English. They are equally familiar with the Hungarian languarres. which has won for -.heni thfriendship of that nation, and the y :1a a to spend much of their time at the beautiful palace a Budapest. Erupress I'opn'ir. The Empress Zita is quite as democratic as lier royal husiiand, and before the war they were frequently seen walking on the streets of Vienna like tha most plebian of that city. Sometimes the Archduke pushed a

His uncle, 'the Archduke Ferdinand, hated him because he knew this young man would rule after him on account of his morganatic marriage and he tried to wp the democracy of the younsrer man against him. but it proved a boomerang for it only added to the popularity of th Archduke Charles.

W'ir.le th--. young couple have always l. ecu well off In this world's ;'iwh it a-s been mainly through the wealth ' f the Empress for the Parma hranch of the Bourbon family are niong the richest princes in Europe, but it was only since the assassination at Srajepo that Charles Francis had very much money of his own. After Ferdinand's death he became the heir to the Austrian throne and entitled to the income of the Este estate, the revenue beinsr sixteen mil

lion dollars annually. This estate was loft by the 1 irt Tuke of Modena and an 'xtraord nary clause In "the will. pro '.) '': the income of the estate chd! !.."OTie the property of each hot o 'ho Aii'rlan throne. The new Fnprc Is ntttremely popular all over the dual monarchy. The wife of Ferdinand was retarded by the peonle as the Queen Esther, who would influence her husband to great favors for her native land Bohemia, and they bitterly resented such Influence. Although the Empress has two brothers in the Belgian army the Austrir.ns do not resent this for they know that Zita is devoted to Austria by the way sh attended to the wants of the old Emneror and In her Red Cross work for the Austrian soldiers. B-others In Ambulance Corps. The two brothers of the Empress at first wanted to fight for France, but were refused owing to a law made by CJenera! Boulariger, which bars all members of houses who have relgnei in France from service In her army. They tried In vrdn to overcome this law bt t failed. There was some dlfflru" - in setting into the armies of

the allies of the French, so they enlisted as stretcher bearers In the Ambulance Corps of the Belgian Army, and showed great heroism In carrying the wounded from the field under fire. They were given medals by the King of Belgium and later received the Military Cross of France. The fact that the Empress is devoted to her heroic brothers does not afreet her popularity with the Austrlans, who look upon her as loyal and the highest type of an Empress, a wife and a mother. Even her name appeals to them. Saint Zita is the name of a kitchen maid, ;ho was canonized and given a place In the calendar of saints. Saint Zita. was a scullery maid of the thirteenth century and found piety even in the kitchen. She Is the patron saint of the women who do their own housework. ' When the Puchess of Parma gave her baby tha name of Zita she wished her to be a servarr of the Church at all times, and had nn idea that she would reach the state of Empress of Austria, and the Queen of Hungary and Bohemia. The young ruler and his family wil' probably take up their residence at the "aprburg in Vienna and later go to Schornbrunn, tha Imperial summer residence of the royal family and the favorite home of Franz Joseph. Charles Frsncis will start a new order of things and under htm Austria is sure to prosper and become more influential for Austria-Hungary Is Indispensable to he International equilibrium of Europe. Austria has not always won in battle, but the fighting qualities of her soldiers have never been disputed, and when defeated In the past they have risen to fight again. Charles Francis knows his people, their temperament and their courage. That he has their success at heart is unquestioned, and now that the Hapsburg curse put upon the old Emperor has died with him a brighter dar may dawn for both Austria and Its ruler,
