lf Ludwig II, the young King of Ba-

from excess of m:

varia, was mad, it was fre ij esty The monarch of one of the smallest kingdoms of the world, his opinion of fimself was magnificent beyond all dreams of andeur. Ordinary peopis were not ntly exalted to be his companions Ordinary cccupations afforded him no tios. All the chateaus and pal- ¢ which he irherited when he came to threne were squslid for one so gr A eand buil wore his ru 2 hobbies, and he was thus eble to gratify the one delusion by building magnificent

fer attendants awaited his unexpected visita. Ludwig's mania for solitude took the most unexpected twists. He ed this own company beat om those occasions wben people whose minds are less phe nomenallz balanced consider companicn- ship most essential. It was Lis funcy to have dramatic and musical performance; for himself alone. Unfortunate theatrical manugersand indignant musical directors, riot daring to resist the royal whrm, were driven to waste their talent by providing entertainments. ‘The thenter was dark

ened, the orchestra, the chorus and the full dramatic company were grudgirgly previded, one and all detesting the work of putting forth their best cforts for the amusement of an empty honse, save for the solitary figure siti.ng silent and mo tionless in the shadow of the royal lox. Music Ludwig loved, and many of his wildest extravagancesnand maddest acts of prodigality were dne to the influence of Wagner, his one friend and adviser. It was Wagner who prompted his most traii- seendcnt folly, the erection of a huge theater st Bairouth for that composer's giorification. One performance alone cn- tailed an expenditure of £20,000, of which £15,0V0 was paid by the king, the rest be- ing barely covered by the s..le of tickets.

Reared from his childhcod amid the mest enchanting scenery, Ludwig dearly loved the lonely mountains and the silent foresta in which his possessions were so rich. De- lighting to turn night into day, he would order his horses after dark, and the jingle of his sleigh bells and the big crack of thx possilions’ whips wonld bring the peas- antry to their bedroom casements to see a brilliant equipage finsh by, a phantom that vanished in a whirl of snow dust, a dream cf red and gold and bineand silver, and above the head of the silent occupant two crowns glowing with cletrie light. It was only the simple inhabitants of the Bavarian Alps who ever caugit o glimpse of these fuirylike vehicles. The frons of one wus formed by a giguntic shel] horne by Tritona, witha lictie Cupids seated on its edge, whose tiny arms carried back wreaths to the royal occupant. The orna- mentation of another was so profuss that but three small spaces were left on the panels, and these were occupied by Gelicate mythological scenes painted by the hand of a famous Munich ertist. The king’s slkeaaghs were never drawn by fewer than four horses. He appears to have been fond of these animals, which he called his “dumb courticrs.’’ But, like everything else about bim, they were conipelled to suffer in order to gratify their master’s fancies.

During the winter of 1874 instructions vere sent to the royal stables that the 30 best horses they contained were for several] days to be fed on nothing but oats. The grooms imagined they were to be entered for a face. Though a blinding snewstorm was raging, Ludwig commanded some workmen to at once set about erecting a wooden tower in the forest adjoining his palace, and eround this tower a gullery was torun. Finally when his plans were matured he stationed an orchestra of wind instruments near this erection, taking up his own position on the balcony. In the cornfields near he bad scattered here and there drums, kettles and some so)jdiers with rifies loaded with powder, and an or- der was given that each man should re- main hidden and silent. Ata given sig- bal the horses were led quietly to the foot of the tower. Then the king gave a sign which was understood by the leader of the orchestra, by the drums, kettles, trumpets and goidiers. In an instant the most in- fernal bubbub broke forth. Each draum- mer vied with the other to beat louder, the trumpeters nearly burst their cheeks, there

_were powder explosions, shrill whistics and

most diabolical howls, The terrified horses broke their fastenings. Mad with terror, they feared, wheeled, zigzagged; plunging and kicking, they galloped here and there; with blood red nostrils and floating manes they bolted in all directions tothe jeopardy of the orchestra and the terror of the drums and kettles in the flelds) One by one they disappeared over the horizon, white with foam, still snorting and rolling their eyes. It was days before some of them were found. Many were picked up enfeebled, still wild and terrified. Some had reached the mountains; others had penetrated the woods or become engulfed in the marshes. His majesty, however, was well amused.

The tricks Ludwig played on his horses he also inflicted on his servants. Every one about him was in danger of life and Mimb. He injured at least 30 persons, and ene he killed. It is pot to be forgotten, however, that he was mad and ought long before this to have been under med- ical charge. For some offenses his attend- ants were confined in the dungeons of his castles; for others they were banished to America. One miserable lackey was charged with looking too curiously at his eccentric master. For this he was com- pelled to wear a black mask over his face for a whole year. Another was simply

He had a seal set on his forehead. The king himself paid reverent homage to a certain tree, and there was a hedge upon which he bestowed hig benediction as he Grove by.—Pearson'’s Magazine.
