land died at Is O'Clock Sunday morning, the
symutOms being those Of uTTma. y
proclamation signed by all the Ministers
has been issued announcing his death,
which, the proclamation says, leaves the
country in deep mourning, but free, inde-
pendent, and prosperous.

descendant of that branch Of the family o.
Nassau which succeeded to the h0n0rs OF
the Princes OF Orange on the death of VIII

was the eldest son OF William H., and was
born in 1917. He was frequently mentioned
twenty wears ago as candidate for the
hand OF one Of the daughters Of Queen Vic
torIa or Of the Emperor Of Austria. but
those exalted personagcs have no cause 10
regret that they did not enjoy the honor oi
his alliance.
I'm June, 1899, he married Princess 30
phia. the second daughter of William l., Of
Wurtemburg. she will be remembered n
one of the most learned and best educated
women who ever occupied throne, and
as a great patron Of literature, science, and

The father Of the lale King died in 1919
intestate. He left fortune of lOO,OOhOO
forins. The greater part Of this money
went 70 the eldest son. When William III.
ascended the throne his first act was 10 cut
down his civil list considerably. his next
act was u promote a scheme for draining
the Zuyder Zee. These were about the only
useful things he accomplished during his
reign.
Ibe succession 10 the throne has inspired
serious anxiety ia the Netherlands, ana thus
was one Of the reasons for the second mar
riage Of the King. In going 10 VISIT his SIS
