mence the day's organized tour. Now
Vienna, or in German, Wien, wes for-
merly the enpitol of the Austro-Hun-
avian Enupire, and since the war it
has been the capitol of the Austrian
Republic. It is situated at the junc-
tlon of the insignificant Wien. river,
‘from which it takes its name and the
Danube, Vienna consists of the Stadt,
or old city, which is quite small, and
the modern city surrounding it, Be-
tween the two is belt of broad ere-
nres known as the Ringstrasse. The
Stadt is the fashionable quarter, ond
here are the imperial palace, the’ ae
dences of many of the nobility, ‘the
‘Jleading churches, inuseums, gallerios,
yete., and the most elegant shops. The
Ringstrasse is perhaps net surpassed
in its architectural magnificence by
any other street in Europe.

The first place to which the guide
took us was the Capuchin chureh. It
contains the vaults of the Imperial
family. It wos a.grusome, damp,dark

Francis Joseph in 1916. He died at
the age of 86 und bad reigned 68 years
He reigned the longest of any Enro-
pean monarch, Once he had a for-
tune teller tell his fortune. She said:
“You will live. to see the distruction of
the empire’ you have worked to build
uy, and to bury all those you hold
most dear.” All of which came true.
