crowns and robes and regalia when one
is a king, but ones travelling expenses

But when the King of Bulgaria was
openly acknowledged at Rome and abroad
and gossip got about as to what his new
crown was to be like and how many
yards of silk and embroidery were TO
go into his coronation robes. even the
warlike old prince thought things were
going too lar, and he consented TO think
about a coronation, much to the joy OF
his subjects. They were very grateful
to him and, in a short time it was de
cided to let the ceremony taAe place next
August. The Montenegrins rather hope
it will raise a big stir in the world as
did King Ferdinands move, but so far
they are disappointed Though the event
has been talked of in Vienna for some
time nothing is known officially in dip
lomatic circles. What is more calling to
the sturdy mountaineers themselves, the
papers that come from Austria all say
that no opposition will be raised, as the
country is so small and unimportant that
her rulers title concerns her alone and
does not affect any other power.
Once, in 1895, Prince Nicho.as decided
that the time had come when the Monte
negrins should have a constitution. So
he Cd led his first national assembly in
1906. But things did not work well. The
delegates quarreied among themselves
and began to ask questions that irritated
their prince. Besides, when there

said he would like to meet the prince.
It was arranged at once and the old man

he is ranked as one of the three great
French poets of the nineteenth century,
I1amartine and Hugo being the two other
De Musset was regarded as a ne'er-do-

pretense of studying law he dropped that
for medicine and before progressing 1ar
in the latter study gave 1T up, later De-

But before he was eighteen his verse
had attracted Hugo, who admitted the
youth to his house and to the literary
circle which met there.
He was another of George Sands low

before she met Chopin. And this unscru-
pulous woman inspired some OF de MUS

did some Of the choicest of Chopin's har-
monies. She and de Musset went to-

twenty -four, but the trip ended In a
series Of violent quarrels and passionate
reconciliations. Yet it. inspired his
Nights the series of poems which are
considered his masterpieces. This master
writer produced not only verse but plays
and short stories, yet he had to depend
for his livelihood upon librarianships In
the govefnment bureaus. He was a high

excuses SO undermined his health that
he could produce nothing brilliant after
he was thirty. Indeed, he was prema-

forty-seven.

this venture also failed and he packed
