AUSTRIA HUNGARY, LAND
 OF STRANGE CONTRAST
No Country In Europe Contains So Many Diverse Nations and Tongues As Austrian Empire, Except Hun
(special to The Bulletin. )

Special to The Bulletin)
 Washington, D. C.. July 14.-Austria Hungary. toward which the eyes of the world are now turned because of the recent assassination of Archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir to the throne of the dual monarchy. and his con sort. the Duchess of Hohenberg, is a land of strange contrast, according to statement issued by the National Geographic Society. at Washington, D. c.
 Tn spite of it's important position, both geographically and politically they mean when they speak of Austria Hungary, and to many the words Austria and Hungary seem inter changeable terms for the same coun- try, reads the statement. What, then, is Austria, what is Hungary, and why are they always bracketed together?
 The Austrian Empire is a constitu- tional monarchy formed of three king doms, Bohemia Galicia and Dalmat a. two archduchies, Upper and Lower Austria, and a collection of duchies, countships, and margraves of prince-y rank; all of them united in the per son of the Emperor Francis Joseph. The adjacent and entirely independent Kingdom o Hungary in addition to Hungary proper, includes Croatia, Slavonia and Pennsylvania, countries formerly independent but now through intermarriage. conquest and inheritance, all possessions of the Apostolic King of Hungary, who hap pens by a purely historic chance to be also sovereign of the Empire of Aus tria- The possession of a unifying link in the person of their common ruier has led to the Ausgleich, or Comp-o- mise whereby the two countries, for mutual convenience, have agreed to join forces 1 maintaining joint diplo- matic and naval and military ser vices. Beyond this the two countries are entirely independent each having it's own constitution, legislature and administration.
 No country In Europe, except only Hungary, contains within it's borders so many diverse nations and tongues sas the Austrian Empire. Each of the three great ethnie stocks of Europe is represented-the Latin, the German and the Slav with the latter predomi- hating, as to it belong 15 out of the 26 million people inhabiting the Empire The Hungarian. or more properly.

Magyar, is perhaps the keenest pat riot in Europe, and he manifests his enthusiasm by seeking to impose his language and customs upon his Slav- onic fellow-citizens with a persistence that neither opposition nor passive re- sistance can diminish.
 Tn these lands, so mixed in nation ality and language, there is no less variety of religion; Roman Catholics preponderate, but Greek Orthodox. Uniat Greeks. Lutherans. Calvinists, Jews, and even Armenian Gregoria s. are found within their borders. The customs union between Austria and Hungary has rendered these countries a commercial unit; but roughly speak ing, Hungary Is the agricultural and pastoral country, while Austria is in- dustrial Hungary is also the, rich -st country in Europe in mineral deposits. the range of which is singularly wiie. Austria is, after Switzerland. the most mountainous region in Europe, more than four-f -fifths of her vast territory being over 500 feet above sea level. Mountain climbing Is the greatest na- tiOnal game. like baseball in the Uni ted States. Old, young, middle-aSed, all take keen interest In it. Even Emperor Francis Joseph is Rn en- thusiastic mountaineer at more than 80 years of age. In his time he has scaled most of the great peaks of his country.
 Vienna, the Imperial City the cap ital of Austria, owns her own cleo tric and gas light, street railways and omnibuses. ice manufacturing plant, warehouses. stock yards. brewery. wine celler. all the pawnshops and even the undertaking establishments. Budapest, the capital of Hungary, for merly two cities. Buda and Pest, is Paris, Vienna and London in one, a combination of the gayeties of the capitals of the world. with little dis tinctive Hungarian paprica spice thrown in.
