travel in foreign parts would do what
society and education had failed to do
make him man of cultivation and
usefulness.
Franz Won Este, as he is called, has
/ more than once prophesied what his
conduct would be were he upon the
throne. He told one Vienna diplomat
that absolutism was the one form of
government sanctioned by God. This
theory excited remark, and it was pre-
dicted that if he attempted to put his
ideas into practice when he came into
his inheritance the great empire over
which his uncle presides would go to
pieces.
In November the Austrian heir was
seriously i'll. 1t was thought for
time he was going to die. 1t was
said that his death would not have
been mourned by the Austrians

led to his Punishment was when he

revenged himself by emptying pot of
spinach over a marble bust of the en-

WILL VISIT AMERICA.
Austria's Heir on the Way to the
United States.
He Will Travel Inco9nito-SurIy and Over
bearing, This Future Emperor Is
Most Unpopular In His Ma
tive Land.

TIE heir to the throne of Austria,
accompanied by a prince and two
counts, will be here early in the aut-
uInn, says the New York World. The
future head of the Hapsburgs, who Is
coming to New York. is Archduke
Francis Ferdinand d'Este.
lie is young unmarried man, and
one story has it that he is travelling
around the earth in search of wife.
He will not visit New York in his OFF,
cial capacity, but will travel incognito.
This, however, does not mean that he
will slip into New York quietly and
put up at some obscure hotel under an
assumed name.
Recently Chevalier d'Hoppancourt,
captain of the Austrian flagship
Frundsberg, waited upon Mayor Gill
roy and informed him that the heir to
the throne was coming in a few
months. He added that the archduke
did not expect to have his presence
officially recognized. There is no
doubt, however, that the archduke
will be the recipient Of many hospitali-
ties in New York, and the fact that he
is unmarried as well as the scion Of
royalty will add to the cordiality of
his welcome
Just how Francis Ferdinand will re-
ceive these overtures is matter of
conjecture. Those who have met him
describe the future emperor as a surly
man of overbearing manners and much
density of mind.
In Vienna he is said to be without q
friend in the world. He is as unpopular
in the Austrian capital as his uncle,
the emperor, is idolized. He has none
of the amiability or suavity of the lat
ter, and has been boycotted socially
more than once. His favorite amuse-
ment is hunting, and he likes to get
into the cab of d locomotive and run
the engine. He is powerful six-footer,
tall and we'll proportioned, with a
brisk, determined manner.
One of the direful results of the
tragedy at Meyerling, when Prince
Rudolph committed suicide, was that
it cast the line of succession upon
Francis Ferdinand. From a mere no.
body who was much despised he at
once became a person Of importance,
and it was hoped that his new position
would effect some marked improve.
ment in his manner and conduct.
This trip, it is said, was part of a
scheme to wake up the mind of the |
future emperor. 1t was thought he |
might see something that would set |
him thinking, that he might ask ques-
tions and gain information, and that |

The opera tons before Sebastopol and
at the capture of Kinburn. He received
medals for distinction and was spe-
ciallv mentioned in dispa tches for serv-
Ices as director of transports during
the Abyssinian war in 1865. He was
private secretary to the first lord OF the
admiralty from 1871 to 1874, received
various orders of knighthood and won
the approval of the government for the
manner in which he discharged his
duties on the coast of Tunis and in the
Sfax commission of inquiry in 1881. He
became acting permanent secretary in
the following year. In 1854 he became
commander in chief on the Australian
station, and after a brief attempt at
parliamentary career was made adj
miral superinte ndent of naval re-
serves in 1858. He commanded one OF
the opposing fleets ia the naval
manenvers in 1ssS-S9-9l. and was made
