is dying at Palace Laeken, near this
city.
Ever since that June morning when
her royal husband was shot down
in their faraway empire in the new
world, this beautiful daughter of Leo
pold has moved among the empty
shadows of mimic court. Faithful
to the end, she is still waiting for
her lover-husband who never comes.
She was bride at II, an empress
at "a and maniac at 26. Her fate
has been as tragic as the empire that
once was hers.
She met the youthful archduke, the
younger brother of Emperor Franz
Joseph of Austria when she was n
mere girl and they were married in
few months. Then began an ideal
life which, in the soiled and blood
stained annals of the Hapsburg and
Coburg houses. stands out as the su-
preme example of perfect love.
Macmillan built for his bride a
beautiful home on the shores of the
Adriatic. He became the governor of
the Venetian kingdom, and
the untroubled happiness of these
early years was in sense the COM
pensation for the terrible finale.
When Napoleon Ill, in order to
further the French and Austrian in
terests in Mexico asked him to be-
come the emperor of that country,
Macmillan was dazzled by the pros
pective glitter of a crown, and he
accepted. He and his naughty and
queenly wife went to Mexico and
