FREDERICK VIII DROPS DEAD ON
STREETS OF SAXONY.
Ruler’s Body Was Taken to Hospital
Morgue, Where Attendants, Alarmed
at His Absence, Found Him.
Christian X., eldest son of the dead
King Frederick VIIL., was proclaimed
king of Denmark from the balcony of
the palace in Copenhagen in the
presence of a huge concourse of peo-
ple who had assembled in the square
in front of the royal residence.
The prince will be forty-two years
old on Sept. 26 next. He was married
in 1898 to Princess Alexandrina of
Mecklenburg-Schwerin. He has two
sons.
DROPPED DEAD ON STREET
King Frederick Stricken With Apc-
plexy While Walking In Hamburg.
King Frederick VIL. of Denmark
died alone and unrecognized on the
sidewalk of one of the principal streets
of Hamburg, Germany.
The body was removed by the po-
lice to a public hospital, where it was
identified later by members of the
king's suite who had accompanied him |
to Hamburg.
King Frederick was in his sixty-’
ninth year and was a brother of
Queen Mother Alexandra of England,
the dowager empress of Russia and |
the king of Greece.
The king, traveling incognito, had
arrived in Hamburg Monday on his
return from a long trip to the south,
where he had been convalescing from |
a serious attack of inflammation of
the lungs. With the queen and the
royal suite, he took quarters at the!
Hamburger Hof.
At 10 o'clock Tuesday night the king
left the hotel unaccompanied for his |
usual stroll before retiring. He had
gone only a short distance when he |
was overcome on the street by a sud- |
den attack of apoplexy. |
When members of the king's suite |
became alarmed over his failure to!
return to the hotel after a reasonable |
time, they called in the proprietor, and |
a search was begun. The searchers!
found his majesty dead at the hos-
pital and brought his body back to
the hotel with them.
King Frederick and Queen Louisa,
who had traveled to Hamburg from |
Nice under the incognito of the Count |
and Countess of Kronberg, had their
three youngest children, Princess
Thyra, Prince Gustav and Princess |
Dagmar, with them.
King Frederick had been undergo- |
ing a course of treatment for arterio- | ;
sclerosis, with which he had been |
troubled for a considerable time. He
had also suffered from an attack of in-
flammation of the lungs, but this had
been completely overcome.
When he left the Hamburger Hof |
after a hearty dinner, the king strolled |
toward the “Goose market,” one of the |
principal squares in the business sec-
tion of the city and just around the
corner from the hotel. A few minutes
later some pedestrians noticed an
elderly gentleman fall to the sidewalk.
He was dressed in an ordinary busi-
ness suit and appeared to be a well
to-do tradesman. The pasgersby ran to
the spot to assist him, but he was al-
ready dead.
A policeman was called and he had
the body conveyed in an automobile to
the Sailors’ hospital. The physicians
on duty there on examination found
that death had been instantaneous.
There was nothing on the body
which afforded a clew to its identifi-
cation, and it was placed in the mor-
tuary of the hospital.
It was much later in the evening
that the royal suite, which had be-
come anxious owing to the king's ab-
sence, heard of the incident that had
occurred on the “Goose market.” As
their inquiries in regard to the king's
movements had up to then proved
fruitless they, together with the pro-
prietor of the hotel, proceeded to the
hospital to look at the body there, al-
though they did not suspect that it
was that of his majesty.
On arrival at the hospital they were
confronted by the fact that the dead
man was the king. Arrangements
were immediately made for the body
to be conveyed to the hotel, where it
was laid out amid masses of flowers.
Later the body was taken to Copen-
hagen.
The king was regarded by his phy-
sicilans as completely restored to
health by his trip to the south. Tues |
day he felt particularly well, and dur-'
ing the day expresse! joy at his ex-|
pected return to Copenhagen. He re
marked that he felt refreshed and
completely restored to health.
The flags on all the public buildings
in Hamburg, where the king had re
peatedly been a welcome guest, were
placed at half mast.
Several months ago King Frederick
suffered a serious illness. While tak.
ing his customary walk in Copenhagen
he had a sudden seizure, and was com.
petied to return to the palace. Later
it was announced that he had suffered
a chill, but the real nature of his mal.
ady was not disclosed. While he show.
ed rapid recovery, he¢ suffered a re
lapse two weeks later, and consider
able anxiety was expressed by mem:
bers of the court as to his condition.
RICHESON MUST DIE
Council Adjourns Without Hearing
Anything of Petition For Leniency.
After a short session at its offices
in the state house in Boston. the
executive council adjourned with-
out Governor Foss having referred to
the body any petition for leniency for
Rev. C. V. T. Richeson. This means
that Richeson must die.
623 262 Converted In M. E. Missions.
“This board began its work four
years ago without a Sunday school
missionary in any field,” was the open-
ing statement in the report of t-e
board of Sunday schools, presented 0
the general conference of the Method-
ist Episcopal church in Minneapolis,
Minn.
“It has sont out many missionaries
into all parts of the United States and
into other lands. As a result of such
extension work, the following facts
are noted,” the report continued:
“New schools established, 1128; en-
rollment in these schcols, 42,000;
church organizations resulting, 204;
new churches actually built, 17; value
of these churches, $220,650. The spirit.
ual results of the work for the four
years ending in 1912 is 623,262 ccn-
versions.”
Food Prices at Highest Point.
Prices of commodities have reached
the highest point ever touched in the
records kept by Rradstreets Journal
in New York, which for years has
tabulated praces of all classes of com:
modities, and found an “index num
ber,” which hits a carefully compiled
average of prices, month by month.
The figure for May 1 shows an in-
dex number of $9.2746, & figure which
exceeds any previous figure during the
twenty years that the index number
has been compiled. It shows a rise in
prices of 1.9 per cent since April 1 of
this year, and a rise of 9.7 per cent
since a year ago. The previous high
record, made Jan. 1, 1910, was $9.2310,
“Comparison with May 1, 1908"
says Bradstieets Journal, “reveals an
increase of 11.7 per cent, while con
trast with the like date in 1908, waen
quotations were suffering from the ef-
fects of economic depression, displays
an advance of 16.4 per cent.”
Famous Feudist Dead.
Ed Callahan, who was shot from
ambush last Thursday morning while
he was at work in his store at Crock:
ettsville, Ky., died of his wounds at
the Witherspoon hospital at Buckhorn,
in Breathitt county. Callahan was shot
through the left lung, and at first it
was thought he would recover, the
ball having passed entirely through
his body and the wound had drained
well,
Last Friday pneumonia set in and he
continued to grow worse. The famous
feudist made his will and gave a
statement of his belief as to the iden-
tity of his assassins to the members
of his family gathered about him. The
names he divulged to them, however,
are kept secret.
