offspring Of wife of higher rank and
thus was chosen to succeed his father
in place Of Maesoud, his elder brother
tie has often rebuked Mirzia for his un-
ruIness. and in 1888 recalled him and
only allowed him to return to Ishpapan
after disbanding some of the regiments
and ordering hiIn to pay more than usual
tribute.

Illles Sultana, Or, SHADOW Of the King

believed he might attempt TO usurp the
throne. Massoud MirZia, who is enor-

his severity and intolerance, aud on the
other hand, Muzafar t.d Din, the new
shah, is much loved by the people Of
the Province of AzerboIjan, where the
Persian army is chiefly recruited. lie is
