THE AUSTRIAN EMPEROR.

HIA PRIVATE-LIKS.

This is a sketch of the home life of the Bovereign who at the present moment holds the peace of Europe in his hands. It is an intimate study, by one who knows the Court life of Austria.

The aged Emperor dines alone on gold plate from the famous service whose central decorative picce is worth £3,000. There is but one guest--a general aide-de- camp or high official of the Court. The proudest monarch of Europe is alone with one guest. Etiquette demands it. There are eight services--Hofburg ceremony does not permit les, and Hofburg custom makes the soup-meat follow the soup- tradition dating from before Charles the Fifth. Then Ash, the garnished roast, a vegetable, foil or game with corapote, salads and cheese, sweets and dessert, Imperial etiquette demands four wines. The rast old palace has the most perfect collars in Europe, the best crus of Lower Austria, Hungary, of Bordeaux, Bur- gundy Charapagne, Moselle, the Rhino and the only real Tokay romaining in the world. from the Hegyala vineyards, yours ago destroyed by the phylloxera. The aged Emperor loves them; but his doctors: have presoribed him Pilsener beer. He does not like it, but he drinks it, sipping towards the end a single glass of some. Tare vintage.

Five gorgeous flunkeys in pale blue, buff, pink and gold, serve the two men. There have been me flowers on the table since the tragic death of the Empress Elizabeth; but the light of wax candles. glints the golden service and the rare wines in cut glass. They fit from historic tapestries to carved wood furn. ture and panels such as no museum possesses, and make dancing shadows in the distant corner.
