A GRIM CEREMONY.
An EmperOr's Death fastened by
RehearsiRg His Own Funeral.

Rehearsing His Own Funeral.
Emperor Charles V of Spain brought
about his death by rehearsing his own
funeral For the last two years of his
life, after resigning the scepter of Spain
and the Netherlands to his son Philip,
in 1866, Charles retired to the monas
terry of Yuste, in Estremadura, and
there lived cloister life in close inter
course with the monks, devoting much
time to religious exercises. During this
period, prompted it may be by the ex-
ample of Cardinal de la Marck, who
for several years before his death, in
1928, had annually rehearsed his own
obsequies, the emperor, in the summer
of 1868, formed the resolution to cele-
brate his own funeral before he died.
Accordingly, on Aug. 80 of that year,
the grim farce was carried out with the
most Ella borate ceremonial. The imperial
domestics marched with black tapers in
their hands, and the emperor, clad in
sable weeds. himself followed, wearing
his shroud While the solemn mass for
the dead was sung before the high altar
in the cathedral Charles gave up his ia
per to the priest, typifying thereby his
resignation of life, and was solemnly
laid in his coffin, The ceremony closed
with sprinkling holy water on his body;
then. all the attendants retiring, the
doors were shut, and Charles rose from
his narrow bed and withdrew to his pri-
vate apartment
The damping Of the graveclothes III
1uced a chill which, aided no doubt by
51e mental depression caused by the
yrewsome ceremony, induced fever
which ended in his death three weeks
later on the 21st OF September Ao88.

A Missing Link.

It will doubtless surprise many who
1ave never even heard of the brute that
there still exists on the island of Java
an animal, OF rather reptile, which
seems to be the missing link between
the ichthy osauri of prehistoric days and
the well known saurians of modern
times
This animal is known to the Javanese
as ''linguin. It fell to the luck of
Baron Alfonso Pereira, consul general
of Austria Hungary, to shoot one Of
these beasts some years ago. It's length
was between nine and ten feet, and it
looked a cross between a snake and a
crocodile. Though the beast was cut
and wounded in its encounter with
Baron Pereira it did not bleed.

1t Is One of the Institutions of New

There is a place in New Orleans that

Originally this breakfast was intend
ed for the butchers, and they contribut-
ed to it the daintiest meats that the
splendid French market in New Orleans
provided from day to day. Gradually
outsiders began to come in, and now
one must engage a seat at breakfast two

guests from Boston, sat at the head OF

One long table occupies the little
dining room, to which one climbs by
rickety flight of stairs. Every French
man, when he gets up, takes cup OF
coffee and a roll, and at II o'clock eats
his real breakfast This is the meal that
Nine. Begeuy serves, and it costs 81.
The kitchen is right off of the dining
room, and there is no pretense of adorn-
ment. Everything is as plain and sim
pie as it can be, excepting the food, and
this is the perfection of the gastronomic
art. A bottle of claret stood at each
place, which, with water imported
from Germany and called ''blue label, ,
was all there was to drink until the lit
