England the English youngsters are clamor-
ing for them too.
Almost as popular in his own country as
little Olaf in his is the Crown Prince Of
Portugal, the Duke OF Braganza. Recently
with his father he made a tour through
Europe and was received everywhere with
much favor. He is a sturdy chap, and is
said in face and physique to resemble his
good looking mother much more than his
corpulent father. He looks, in fact, like
a high born English boy and court gossip
says that he will follow the example Of his
neighbor, King Alfonso, and take an Eng
lish girl for n wife.
He has recently won the warm admira-
ton of the Portuguese by the pIIcky rescue
of his father. King Carlos and the young
Prince were hunting wild boar in the forest
near Arronches when they were charged
bv a herd of the beasts. The hunters
fed, and the Kings horse fell and was killed,
According to the report from Lisbon, the
Young Prince. seeing the plight of his
father, turned at peril TO himself, assisted
his father to his own horse and carried
him TO safety. They were finally rescued
by a squadron of cavalry. The return
Of the party to Lisbon, where the news
preceded them, was the signal for a great
ovation, in which the Crown Prince bore
the honors.
The two melancholy figures among baby
royalty are the Czarcvitch of Russia and
little Monica Pia, the daughter Of the King
of SaxOny. Little Alexis, the most longed
for son in Europe, now the most protects
and closely guarded of living royalties,
can but excite the pity of every one who
thinka of the dangers thai heSct him and
the troubles that await him, From the
time of his birth this baby has been SUI
rounded by every possible magniicence,
and il he lives to succeed his father he
will have more titles than he can remember.

and his private estate will yield him a
revenue of $4,000 900 annually. just at
present the chief diversion of the lad is
attempting to follow his mother and aunts
in amateur photography. He has a camera
of his own, which he has always with him,
and constantly plays at taking pictures.
Poor little Princess Monica Pia was born
shortly after the eloIcment of the Crown
Princess with the tutor Giron, and she has
been apparently the chief object Of her
fathers implacable revenge In every
way he tried to get possession of the child,
and the mothers watchfulness alone
frustrated many attempts made at kid
mapping. Recently the possession of the
little girl. still only a baby, was legally
given to the father, because, being of royal
blood, it was held that she must be reared
in surroundings BETTING her rank.
The possession of the child, however.
has not appeased the anger Of the King,
and as a further blow TO his former wife
he has decreed that the little princess, when
she reaches a proper age, must enter a
religious order. This visitation of the
revenge of the father upon the innocent
touched the tender heart Of Pope Plus Y.
As the head of the Church he can override
the King in such matters, and he has just
decreed that there is no power on earth
that can force her unwill!ngly into a con-
vent.
The young Archduke Carl Franz appears
to be gaining each day adherents among
the Austrians as the heir to the throne
Of Francis Joseph. At the Emperor's
death, which must be shortly expected,
the question of the succession is bound to
be an interesting one. Franz Ferdinand,
who. is the heir apparent, is not popular
either with the people or with Francis
Joseph. He married a Bohemian girl named
Sophie Chotek, of excellent family, but no
rank, and according to the law of Austrian

Little royalty is having its day in Europe.
The newspapers and the people ave been
telling at length Of the doings of the
youngest Of the rising generation Of princes
and princesses and not for a long time
has there been so much to tell about. When
little Prince Olaf came down from Norway
with his parents on a visit to England King
Haakon and Queen Maud were almost for
gotten in the adulation that was. expended
upon their little boy.
The two sons Of the Prince Of Wales are
to become sailors and to study at Osborne,
while in southern Europe the Crown Prince
Of Portugal has just distinguished himself
by rescuing his father when they were
hunting together. The young man who is
destined to succeed King Peter of Servia,
provided his dynasty lasts so long, has
been cutting up SO. many strange didoes
that his sanity is questioned; and there
have been all sorts Of stories about other
youths scarcely in their teens who are to
succeed Kings now in their dotage or on
sickbeds.
The two sons OF the Prince Of Wales, who
are TO follow in their fathers footsteps as
sailors, are the Oldest boys, Edward and
Albert. In this respect there is something
Of a departure from the usual custom Of
the royal family OF England; for it has
been hitherto the second son who goes into
the navy. Their father, who became Prince
OF Wales only on the death Of his older
brother, the Duke of Clarence, served his
apprenticeship and is credited with as good
n knowledge OF things nautical as any man
In England. King Edward has a good
knowledge OF this important line of the
English service also, but it was his next
younger brother, Prince Alfred. the Duke
Of Edinburgh, who became the Admiral.
Young Princes Edward and Albert have
always had a great fondness for ships
and water. Their favorite outings were
upon the sea or at the naval stations. and
upon their return from a visit TO a navy
yard they had built a brig, full rugged and
equipped, and they haze since been spend
ing a great deal Of time IL sailing this small
craft on the waters of the lake at Windsor.

cement a closer friendship between these
two Balkan States. Boris, it will be re-
membered, was the young Prince whose
baptism into the Russian Church was made
the occasion Of an act by his father, Prince
Ferdinand, that brought down upon him
the severe condemnation OF all Catholic
countries and civilization in general. Upon
his marriage with Marie Louise of Orleans,
Ferdinand, who is himself a Roman Catholic
by birth and baptism, made a vow that their
children should be baptized and educated
as Roman Catholics. But no sooner was
his wife dead, in 1899, than he placed Crown
Prince Boris, then 5 years old, and the fu-
ture King of Bulgaria, in charge OF a Rus
sian priest of the Greek Church, h Sc
cretly baptized him and is educating him
in that faith. Boris is said to be developing
into a fine boy and was recently made q
Lieutenant in the Bulgarian army.
The e~scapades Of the young Crown Prince
Of Servia have been so many n OF suoh
an unpleasant flavor that the sanity OF the
young man has been recently brought into
question. He has quarrelled with all OF his
tutors, and once his father was compelled
to imprison him for his misconduct. He
eloped from Belgrade with a comic opera
singer and was found after a long search
by the Servian police in one OF the owese
quarters of Vienna. Recently he was
horsewhipped in one OF the cafes Of the
town by a young woman whom he is said
to have slandered.
The people of Belgrade would not per-
nit the young woman to be punished for
this indi0nitY to the Crown Prince or for
the breach of peace that her act had caused.
Instead they hailed her as a sort Of heroine.
He is exceedingly unpopular with the peo-
pie, and il is said that the only time he was
ever cheered by them was when he won .
hurdle race at one of the annual sporting
events held in Belgrade.
Official Servia has been industriously
denying the report of the Crown Princes
insanity, attributing the report to the
Austrians, who thought by his means to
thwart the King in his effort to raise a loan
for the country. II has even gone so far
as to ma intain that the Princes acts are
merely o~utbursts of Servian enthusiasm
and that his violent temper is only an evi-
dence of his rebellion against the sway Of
men who are enemies of his country. It
seems to he generally conceded, however,
that he will not accede to the throne, and
that instead his younger brother, Alex
ander, who is said to be a high minded,
studious chap, in every respect the oppo-
site of the Crown Prince, viii be the next
King of Servia.

succession she could not appear upon
the throne beside him, nor can her children
have any right to the succession. Not long
ago Ferdinand renowned for his wife and
children their rights to the throne.
Whether Hungary will accept him at
all is a question. The Hungarians have no
/ law against the succession of a Queen Of
humble birth, and any woman, even a
peasant, might sit beside the King on the
throne. All these complications bring into
prominence young Carl Francs claims,
and many believe that he will be the next
Emperor of the double kingdom. He is
considered one Of the most capable of
the young Hapsburg Princes, a boy Of
studious disposition and more likely to
maintain the dignity Of the empire than
any others of the royal family.
A very similar situation brings young
Charles OF Rumania before the public.
King Charles is considered 10 be incurably
i'll, and his death is only a matter, it is said,
of a short time. No children were born to
him and Queen Elizabeth, and years ago
Prince Ferdinand of Hohenzollern, a
nephew of the King, was chosen as heir
apparent. Ferdinand, however, has re-
fused to live more than about two months

people voted him a fine palace near Buchar-
est and an annual allowance Of s25 5000. He
has also placed a great slight upon he
people by refusing to learn thoroughly the
Rumanian language. As a result there is
a strong agitation in the country against
him. Although the Rumanians are willing
to continue the dynasty that his uncle estab-
lished, they a him to get out Of the
p country and never set foot in it again.
They will accept, however, his son, Prince
Charles, to whom they are apparently very
much attached. The boy. even as young
az he is. has taken almost the opposite
course from his father and has shown a
decided fondness for Rumania and its
people. He organized a reg n:ent among
Rumanian youths and is himself the
Colonel. One OF the interesting sights of
Bucharest is this little regiment and the
dashing Colonel or his white pony.

frank curiosity at his gorgeous robes
Little Olaf is Terhars the most ropular,
and certainly the most talked about, of
all the little Princes Of Europe. He has had
the affection OF the Norwegian people ever
since his entrance into Trondh;em fer the
coronation ceremonies. He was carried
high on the shoulder of a rrizzled old naval
officer, and kicked hs chubby legs with
glee, and enthusiastically kissed both hands
in response 10 the cheers of the delighted
people. Again, ct the coronation, when he
became weary with the speeches, he darted
away from the royal party into a throng of
little boys, trying to reach q Norwegian
banner that q caught his eye, tefore he
was dragged back by Mortified attendants.
During the remainder of the day King
Haakon took the little fellow in hand ard
somewhat restrained his eEthusiGsm IN. In
the evening. when the ! Gople gathered in
front OF the palace, the new King ard QCeCn
appeared on the balcony, but so loud were
the calls for olaf, Olaf" that the little fell
low was brought out, and held Ivy the King
himself at arms leng tn above his lead.
Little Olaf's daily constitutionals in the
park are almost royal progresses, so eager
are the people to see at close range this
lad of three. Olaf is unaffecteuly delighted
and meets their advances in so friendly a
way that he not infrequently, even more
than the people, has to be restrained. At
first he would kiss any one who attracted
him and his attendants had to keep at a
distance many other children TO whom he
would rlsh il no were allowed.

The service Of the young seamen will begin
at Osborne the first Of the year. In accord
ance with discipline they would have cx-
actly the same training as the other young
middies, but as a matter Of fact they nave
preferences hat fall to their rank. Edward,
it is generally believed, will not serve out
the full course but will be withdrawn from
the school after he has mastered the princi-
pies Of seamanship, and Albert will remain
in the navy and eventually, il is hoped, suo-
coed to the place and rank Of his late great
uncle, Alfred.
Two cousins Of these English princelings,
sons Of the Crown Prince of Greece, nave
already been in training in the mail navy
of that country and have developed into
sturdy sailor boys. They are greatly ad-
mired by the Greeks, but the grandchild Of
King George who seems at present to nave
won their hearts most completely is the
baby Princess Elizabeth, the daughter Of
Princess Helen OF Russia, who was married
to Prince Nicholas.
When the picture Of this chubby little girl
mounted OF her hobby horse was first seen
in the shops it created almost a riot. People
fought TO buy copies, and when the supply
was quickly exhausted they rushed to the
palace calling for the little one. Her mother
held her in the window, and she smiled and
waved to the cheering people, who replied
with loud bravas Of delight.

the ~salutations with charming grace and
