"MILAN'S CAREER ENDED.

Figures in Europe.

Vienna (By Cable). ~Former King
Milan of Servia is dead
With the death of
Ex-King Milan
Europe passes from view. The
King was not a famous man, and Eu-
his life. However, he has been one of
the most interesting of those who play-
ed their parts on the Continental stage
during the Nineteenth Century
Milan became King of Servia in 1868,
Servia. Before it ended a constitution
had been framed placing all real power
in the hands of the Princes and a freely
elected national assembly of the people.
In addition, during Milan's reign, Ser
via gained complete independence. This
came about as a result the Russo
Turkish War, 1877-1878. The wars of
Milan's reign were, as a rule, unsuccess
ful, however. His country was beaten
by Turkey and saved only by the inter
ference of Russia, and again beaten by
Bulgaria in 1883
Milan's reign will be long remember
ed, not because the good that ut-
tended it, but because of the evils. The
Court of Servia at one time was the
most imfamous in Europe, and Milan
avoided a revolution, in which he would
have been deposed, only by abdicating
in favor of his son. This abdication
took place in 188g, when the son was
only 13 years of age. Servia's present
King was born on August 14. 1876. Be
fore the abdication Milan made himself
most obnoxious to his subjects by his
divorce Queen Natalie. He was
divorced one year before he abdicated
After his abdication the ex-King led an
adventurous career. His career of dis
sipation in Belgrade had
