KING CHARLES
Of R0UMAN|A
DIED SATURDAY
ANNOUNCEMENT OF HIS DEATH
CAME FROM PETROGRAD YES
TERDAY. HE WAS A GERMAN
PRINCE.

Petrograd, Oct. 10.-It is announced
that King Charles of Roumania is
dead.
Charles l. was Roumania's first king
The story of his career spanning rs
years, is that of a German Prince,
elected to govern a Latin people, out
of which experience Roumanians or
those who have followed the fortunes
of that buffer state, will recall much
that is stirring if not romantic.
Prince Charles was born a Hohen-
zollern, an older branch of the fam
lily than that of Emperor William of
Germany, but none the less proud of
its blood He was the son of Prince
Charles Anthony of Hohenzollern-Si
maringen, who voluntarily resigned
the Hohenzollern regentship in favor
of the Prussian crown and subsequent
ly became minister of Prussia.
1t was while Charles was serving,
at the age of 27 years, as an officer
of high rank in the Prussian guard,
that the Turkish provinces of Wal
lachia and Moldavia united to call
themselves Roumania, and, casting
their eyes about Europe for a foreign
prince to govern them-since no ma
tive prince had been successful
the advice of Napoleon III and invited
young Charles to be their prince.
With Austria at that time preparing
to fight Prussia, young Charles de-
parture for Roumania was such a per-
ilous undertaking that he made it Sc
cretly. He disguised himself as Rus
sian merchant, bound for Odessa, and
sailed down the Danube, jumping
ashore on Roumanian territory on May
20, 1866, and made his way to the
palace at Bucharest where he was
proclaimed prince three days later.
Napoleon III had told him that moth
ing was more difficult than to govern
Latin race. The young prince soon
found that he had been well advised
in this respect. He was homesick and
beset with innumerable difficulties,
growing out Of the fact that the coun-
try was struggling with a new consti-
tuition that gave the people an un-
accustomed liberty and that he made
no secret of his purpose to plant
among them the civilization of Ger
many, though he sincerely desired
to become the best Roumanian of
them all. His great confidence in the
virtue of Hohenzollern blood, brought
him energy and patience which later
won the hearts of his people
In the meantime, at the age of 80
the young prince paid court to Prin-
cess Elizabeth of Wied, with whom he
fell in love at first sight when he met
her in Cologne, and the marriage was
celebrated on the banks of the Rhine
in the fall of 1869. The queen has
since become beloved among her peo-
pie for her devotion to good works
and famous throughout the world as
a poet with the pseudonym of Gar
men Sylvia"
A boy was born to the couple, but
he died at the age of six and they had
no further children. In 1876 when
there arose the question of partici-
pating in the Turko-Russian war.
Prince Charles stood firm for neutral |
ity, but when the Russians were
