Embarrassing Situation In Which the
Belgian King Figured.
That kings have feelings and are
subject to embarrassing situations
quite as frequently as ordinary per-
sons is proved by an incident in which
King Leopold of Belgium was the
chief figure. Henry w. Fischer in his
work 1.-THE Private Lives of Emperor
William and His Consort'' tells of the
incident as follows:
Court Marshal Liebenau was all In
flutter when in August. 1890, his
Belgian majesty came to return the
kaiser's visit to Ostend, for his col
league of Brussels had informed him
that the sovereign gentleman was adj

with true native acumen, he can mod
crate the heat by turning on the cold
reservoir.
Now. Leopold had enjoyed the pre-
vious nights festivities very much.
and, observing in the morning that his
slightest wishes in regard to bodily
comfort had been anticipated. he rose
in right good humor. Stepping buoy
antly into his bath at the cool end and
turning round, he sat himself down at
