10, 1908, forty army officers entered
the palace, burst into the apartments
OF the king and queen and killed them.
Details Of the tragedy vary, but the
best authenticated is that the couple
died in each others arms. The same
night several ministers were slain by
the plotters. The total number of vic
tins Of the conspiracy ia said to have
been fifty-four.
At the time of the tragedy King Pc
ter was in Geneva, living a secluded
life, and, apparently, taking little in
terest In the politics of his native
land. Ever since the terrible night
Of the assassinations he has denied
that he had any foreknowledge of
them. Nevertheless, suspicion has con-
tinued, justly or unjustly, to rest upon
him, and 1t was some years after his
accession to the throne before Great
Britain and other powers recognized
him formally as king of Servia.
King Peter as a young man led an
adventurous life. He studied in Swift
erland and then went to the French
Military academy at st. Cyr. He took
part in the Franco-German war as an
officer Of the Foreign legion.
For many years he is said to have
engaged in conspiracies against King
Milan Of Servia, but for forty-fve
years he never set foot on Servian soil
until he was elected king by the Serv.
Ian parliament.
New Capital Easier to Defend.
Kraguyevatz, to which King Peter
has moved his court from Belgrade, is
about fifty miles due south of Semen
dria, on the Danube, and about sixty
five miles south-southeast of Belgrade.
1t lies on branch spur Of railroad
about fifteen miles from the main line
to Salonika and Constantinople, and
is well adapted to defense. 1t is the
third town in size in the old kingdom
of Servia, with about 10000 people.
Its only superiors are Belgrade and
Nisch.
The town was the first capital Of
the principally of Servia, after its
partial liberation from the Turks,
serving as the seat of the Obrenovitch
princes from 1915 to 1912. After that
the family of Karageorgevltch occu-
pied the throne from 1912 to 1858, the
obrenovitches again from 1858 to
1903, and the Karageorgevitches since.

Editor of The News: Chautauqua
will bring many visitors to Dawson
and the citizens generally should
feel the same pride in making the
city attractive that housekeeper
would in preparing for guests in her
home. Our reputation for hospitali-
ty will be at stake, and just a few
people cannot do the work necessary
for making creditable showing.
There is not a citizen of our town
but can play an important part in
this pressing need of the hour. It is
Dawson's opportunity for doing
something worth while for this sec
ton that stands second to none in
the state in wonderful resources, but
We must stand as one for the largest
and best success. Inasmuch as Flag
Day" comes the fourteenth of June
the Daughters of the Revolution are
preparing to celebrate, it has occurr-
ed to me that it would be a capital
idea to make the affair general and
let the national colors float from ev-
cry building the entire week. This
would give the city holiday appear
ance and be an inspiring feature as
we'll, Let the business men decorate
and the homes display at least few
flags, and it is not necessary that
any great expense be incurred. The
work can be done by home people
if they have the will to expend a lit
tie time and energy. The matter
of special exercises for Flag Day will
be taken up with the management,
but let the national colors fly
throughout the week. NJ. C. H.
