A GRIM CEREMONY.
An Emperor's Death fastened by Re.
hearsing His Own Funeral.

hearsing 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 o
Philip in 1856, Charles retired to the
monastery Of Yuste. in Estremadura.
and there lived a cloister life In close
intercourse with the monks. devotin-
much time to religious exercises. Du,-
ing this period, prompted, it may be, by
the example of Cardinal de 10 Marck,
who for several years before his death,
in 1928, had annually rehearsed his
own obsequies, the emperor, In the
summer of 1853, formed the resolution
to celebrate his own funeral before he
died.
Accordingly, on Aug. 80 Of that year,
the grim farce was carried out with
the most elaborate ceremonial. The i'm
perial domestics marched with black
tapes 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 taper to the priest, typify-
ing thereby his resignation Of life, and
was solemnly laid his coffin. The cere-
mony closed with sprinkling holy wa
ter on his body; then, oil the attend
ants retiring. the doors were shut, and
Charles rose from his narrow bed and
withdrew to his private apartment.
The damping Of the %graveclothes in
duced a chill. which, aided no doubt by
the mental depression caused by the
grewsome ceremony, induced a fever
which ended in his death three weeks
later, on the 21st Of September, 1858.

What Readers Want.

Two investigations in fields far
apart have recently been reported
upon showing the tastes Of English
readers. At the annual meeting of the
British Library association in August
the president summed up the situation
In the free lending libraries Of the
United Kingdom by saying that they
issue more fiction than other literature
and that the second rate novel has the
lead in free circulation. Resolutions
were adopted at the meeting to cut out
the very matter which the public calls
for most In future. As the taxpayers
pay for the books, attempts to carry
out the resolution viii be likely to
lead to confusion, for, as the Manches-
ter Guardian observes. It amounts to
preventing the taxpayers "from read.
ing what they prefer and then max.
ing them pay the cost Of prevention.
The second Investigation cited was
made by Professor Scott Of the North
western university as to the reading
tastes Of the average Chicago business
and professional man who takes the
papers," He concludes that the news
paper patron wants news and not
much else, and especially not dfdactc
opinion. In this country the problem
Of suiting ones reading tastes is very
simple, for there Ii q wide latitude for
choice. Moreover, the newspaper
reader not only gets just what he
wants, but pays for just what he
wants and nothing else.

War Clouds in Europe Two
Conflicts Impending.

London, Oci. 4.-Events which
threaten to change the political
face of Europe are crystalIizing
with lightnin rapidity. Almost
over night the horizon of the
Near East, which seemed grad
ually TO be assuming a peaceful
appearance, has become crowd
ed with war clouds.
News has reached here from
several sources that two definite
strokes are impending which cam
not fail to bring matters to
crisis, and perhaps force an i'm
mediate war. One is the pro.
C amation by Prince Ferdinand,
of the independence OF Bulgaria,
VIII ch will include Rumeiia, tax
ing or himself the title of"Czar "
The other is an announcement OF
Austria Hungary of the practi-
cal annexation Of the provinces
OF Bosnia and Herzegovina as
appendages Of the Austro Hun.
garian crown.
Either action will be equiva-
lent 10 the leasing up of the
treaty of Berlin, while Prince
Ferd nand's course seems almost
certain to precipitale a war be-
tween Bulgaria and Turtey. Be-
fore these possibilities, the quar-
rel over the east Rumelian section
OF the Orient Railway sinks into
insignificance. Both armies are
reported 20 be quietly and swift
ly modifying near the borders.
Bulgarians are said 10 be buying
munitions and horses on an ex-
tensive scale.

Horrible Crime in Tenn

early today attacked his brother

the latter was asleep in bed at
his home in this city and almost
literally chopped his head off
with an axe. He then attacked
Bayless' wife, fatally wounding
her. Turning the weapon upon
