ROUNANIA CELEBRATING.
CONTRADICTIONS OF KINGS ILL
NESS ADD TO JOY OVER 18TH
CROWN ANNIVERSARY.
ESTRANGED WITH QUEEN.
Crown Prince Ferdinand Will Be Next
Ruler Instead of Merely One Of
the Kaiser's Soldiers.

VIENNA, March ga dispatch from
Bucharest says that the twentyffth an
niversary of the accession of King
Charles to the throne was generally cele-
brated throughout Roumania today.
The same dispatches contradict the re-
ports of the Kings serious illness that
have been widely circulated of late. In
diplomatic circles here, however, these
denials are looked upon as more for

reasons of state. 1t is quite generally
believed among those who keep IN touch
with Roumanian affairs that hlng
Charles is a very sick man and that his
death is only a matter of weeks, perhaps
of days.
King Charles was born April 20, 1880.
and is therefore 81 years of age. He
was elected to the throne of Roumanla
with hereditary succession on April 8.
1866, though it was not until fifteen years
later that he was proclaimed King. lie
belongs to the non-reignlng branch OF the
Hohenzollerns and at the time OF his
election to the throne he was a sublieu-
tenant in the Second Prussian dragons.
He was recognized by the great powers
six months after his election.
His reign of forty years has been
marked by internal dissensions and par
liamentary crises. But King Charles
has strong hand and a strong mind
and he has usually emerged from his
troubles successfully. He is acknowl-
edged to be a great soldier. clever
statesman and, on the whole, popular
sovereign.
In 1869 King Charles was married to
Princess Elizabeth Won Neiwied, who is
better known as Carmen SYLVIA" the
writer of many stories and poems. The
marriage did not prove felicitous one,
and for years the King and Queen have
been estranged.
The estrangement arose in a great
measure from the notorious Helen Vaca-
rescu episode. in which the Queen be-
hayed in such manner as to almost
cost King Charles his throne. Since that
time Queen Elizabeth has made her resi-
dence almost wholly at her castle of
Pelesch, leaving to the crown princess
the social duties of the court at Blu
charest.
Who Will Be Next Ruler?
The death of King Charles will bring
the Crown Prince Ferdinand to the
throne AS King Charles was without
issue an act was passed some years ago
settling the succession to the throne
upon his elder brother, Prince Leopold
of Observation-Disclosures He, how
ever, renowned his rights in favor of his
son, Prince Wilhelm, who, in 1888, also
renowned his rights.
The right of succession thus passed to
Prince Ferdinand, brother of Prince
Wilhelm, and he by royal decree was
created Prince of Roumania, in 1885,
Prince Ferdinand was born August "a.
1865, and was originally intended to
spend his life as a German soldier.
In 1893 Prince Ferdinand was married
to Princess Marie, the beautiful daugh-
ter of the late Duke of Saxe-Coburg and
Gotha. She is a granddaughter of the
late Queen Victoria and of the late Gear
Alexander IL, and has often been spoken
of as the most beautiful princess Of Eu-
