Correspondence of the Philadelphia Times.
The other day King Lonls II. cf Bavn
rift had a very celebrated Gorman actroe
play "Theodora" tn his presence and no
another person iras in front , not oven
member of his own anlto. Now I hole
that that IB no way for a man who la t
heavily in debt ns hla royal knlbs nn
donbtcdedly is to _ act ; bat then , yet
know , ho hw a passion for the utago an (
that cxsnaoa him In the eyes of a goo
many. Another p&iston that ho has Ion
Indulged in is that of building. HI
father and grand-father had also n teat
for building , but they aatlsBod it bj
erecting muaouniB , pictureRnllerles
echoola and colleges. Lonla II. build
nothing but palaces and clmoaux. Every
where that an eligible elto can bo fonnt
in the Bavarian Tyrol ho erects a Gothl
atrnotnro with a donjon tower and creno
lotcd wallo. Wherever ho finds a BO
qneatcrcd glade in the mldat of almoa
Inaccotalblo rocks there ho pinna a roya
pleaaaro house surrounded with magnlC
cent gardens. Wherever ho discovers ar
uninhabited laland in the bosom of torn
lake that rtflocts the snowy peaks of th
eastern Alps thcro ho builds a villa ooplc
after some of thoao that Tarao end Aria-
to have described in their poetic accotml
of Italian chivalry.
SIX NEW CHATEAUX.
At the present tlmo the architects o
hi ) majesty are at work at tix dllToren
building operation ! , in as many parts o
the kingdom. On an leland of Lak
Ohlem they are erecting the chateau o
Uorren-Ohiomeco and if It ia over ccni
plotcd according to tholr plans and spec !
ticailons , it will rcllpaa nil that Lout
XIV nnd Louis XV achieved at Vor
titillcs. No description will convoy at
adequate Idea of the refined luxury nnc
Bplondor of the interior of this chateau
No one la allowed to visit It , but If one-
half of what the workmen say la true , th
gliding , rare marbles , rich hangings an <
gotgeona furniture surpass all the won
dora of the Arabian Nights. The king'
bedstead alone cost § 5CO,000 mind you
I am only repeating what ia said b ;
others and won't vouch for the accurac.
of their statements , but what I Trill voucl
for is that though the works at Herron
Ohtomsoo have been in progress for twelve
years and have coat $8,000,000 , as ye
they are only one-third completed. The
building ia a copy on an enlarged scale o
the enormous palace of Versailles am
like its model is surrounded by a park
In which there is a system of fountains
cascades and lakes , which require more
water for a display of a single hour than
the city of Munich consumes in a day.
Oloao to the Hohon Schwacgin palace
which was commenced by Maximilian I
and which Lonla II has considerably enlarged
larged and embellished , a new chateau
Is In process of erection. Perched on top
of a steep peak this Nou Schwauateln fa
a vortlblo eagle's neat , but its Interior
splendor is not a whit behind that of the
Berrcn-Chlomaeo palacewhile the mag
nificence of Its throne room is said to even
surpass anything that the latter contains.
At Liderhof , which Is to the two palaces
already mentioned what Trianon is to
Voraaillej , the king has recently demol-
ahed a whole wing for the purpose of
mlldtng himself an Immense bed room.
) n the Bavarian frontier there juta out ,
iko a sort of natural baatian overlooking
ho Austrian Tyrol , a gigantic rock ,
mown DS the Falkenateln , and on top
if this rock the Bavarian monarch is
milding a tort of mod.'ural castle , which
10 expects to have completed early In
) ctober next. In the same neighbor-
lood , close to the banks of Lake Plan ,
and In the midst of a deserted valley ,
workmen are patting the finishing touch-
IB to a hunting lodge , which is known ai
ho Hnbortua Pavllllon.
THE COST.
Of cottrie , the cant of constructing theao
mlldinga la simply enormous. 1 am in-
ormed that some $30,000,000 have al-
eady been expended on them and still
ho woika are far from completed. The
dng calls loudly for more money and
meanwhile his creditors there are an
rmy of them are becoming more and
nore impatient. Last year they rnado so
iaany threats of exposure that Lonii was
orced to negotiate a loan vrith three
ankera of Munich , who consented to
dvane a him $2,000,000 , to bo repaid in
en yearly Installments from the civil Hat ,
ut on certain conditions. One waa that
bo mlnlator o [ finances should bo forced
0 hold back the money , and another
rovlded for all the ptinces of the king's
anally signing a document In which they
ound themselves to pay back the money ,
1 the royal borrower did not. When
jonisll. was informed of these condl-
ions ho kicked up a row that startled ell
lie neighbors. Ho was not the kind of
king who needed indoraots to his notes
nd ha was so angry that ho not only d's-
nleoed the Intondant who had negotiated
: io loon , bat ho did hla boat
o take off the official head
f his minister of finances for
aving approved of such conditions. Ho ,
owover , took the money and the moro
lamoroua creditors were pild oil , bat it
vai a mere drop in the bucket and the
ting's privy pursu remained as empty as
ver. The other creditors are now mak-
ug such a faas that a second loan seems
novltable. Bankers refuse to advance a
Ingle additional penny unlets the Bavar
ian parliament authorizes a loan and
pledges the public revenues and the
credit of the klpgdcm for ita piymonr ,
ind this the ministers have flatly refused
to oven propose to the legislative body.
[ do not coo how Lonla II. is going to
jot oat of the acrapo , unless parliament
jomea 83 his assistance , and yet it would
be very unjust on the taxpayers of Bava
ria to add to their burdens in oidcr to
meet the debts contracted by a monarch
who , if ho Is not a downright mac in in ,
la certainly a crowned crank In the
natter of a civil Hat the constitution of
Bavarian contains a generous and ample
provision for the sovereign. It allows
blm two per cent of the gross revenues
: ftbo state , and this produces a trifle
aver $1,500,000 n year. The king of a
imall country like Bavaria ought certain ! ;
to manage to get along on cuch a liberal
allowance for pocket money. MixlmlU
[ on the prodecetsr cf Loula and whose
civil Hat was smaller , not only koot up a
brilliant court and traveled about Europe
in fine style , but made his exiled father
an annual allowance of $125,000 , besides
which ho managed to talt away a fan
thousands every year , ao that when he
died after a reign of sixteen JGJM ho Ufi
seven ! million florins to bo divided
stuooR his hclra.
Unfortunately , the king does not eeom
to care much whether ha ia In or cut of
debt and hp goca on spending jnat as I
ho waa as rich aa Jay Gould or the Eat
of Rothschild. The people of Munlcl
are wondering what it will all load to am
some of them predict that wo shall sooi
ba reading of no less a ecandal than i
bankrupt king falling so miserably fla
that ho won't bo ably to pay ton cents 01
the dollar. Failure moans his dopoaltloi
then what ? Perhapa a regency , win
knows ? 1 do not and I nm euro 1 don'
care very much , except , of course , 01
the cgronml i of common suffering ; fo
llko Louis II , I , too , am trying ta nogo
tlato a loin to meet pressing require

THE KINO rEBSONAtLY.
Very foir strangers over have a chine
of seeing this crowned crank of Bavaria
but I saw him last year , and again las
sprint ? under very favorable dream
stincos. Ho is not a married king am
ho is not likely over to bo. Is It th
souvenir r f some early love long lost
some secretly indulged passion , or th
recollection of the way that Lola Monte
used to drive his grandfather around will
n horse whip that has given him such
hatred for womankind ] That ho hanover
never even indulged in the royal ponohan
for keeping a miatresa la certain , nnd
with the exception of actresses on th
stage , ho never willingly looks at a wo
nun. When ho ascended the throne h
was a handsome fellow of nineteen ; ho I
old and wrinkled now , with n fat roum
belly , and dresses like n third-rate trage
dian , and nls ministers soon arranged i
match for him with an Austrian Arch
duchess. Ho allowed them to open thi
negotiations and make all the arrange
ments without raising nny objections
only stipulating that a hundred younj
couple , nil his subjects , should bo mar
rlod on the tame day and at the sami
place as himself. But when it came ti
fixing a day for the ceremonies ho kop
putting it off with such persistency tha
the archduchess finally got angry , sou
him back his love letters and asked hoi
papa's ministers to find her another bus
band. The Bavarian ministers wanted
to look around for another woman us wlfi
for their sovereign , bub Louis positive ! }
refused. When it was represented tc
him that the hundred couples who hac
been designated to act as his nuptial cor-
( ago wore Impatiently waiting to bo uni
ted ho said : "Well , lot thorn wed if thoj
are such foola. As for mo , I will rcmalt
a bachelor , and I never want to hear an }
ono talk again about my getting married. '
A CKAZY FAMILY.
It Is , indeed , a strange destiny , tba
of tnis royal family of Wlttolabacb , thi
ancestors of which won the crown of Ba
varia by their wltclom in council as wcl
aa by courage in the field. Of the tni
brothers who now represent the olde ;
line , ono plays with his crown and sceptri
as though they wcro more baubles ; hi
conceals himself from his people am
ruins himself through indulgence in ex
travagant fancies that border on the va
garlea of a maniac. The other ia nn
doubtodly a madman , and aa such la con
fined in the vast apartments of the Chat
eau of Nymphonborg. Ho was weak
minded from the start and lost what lit
tle wits ho had on the battlefield of Lang
ensalza. The smell of gunpowder , the
thunder of artillery , the rattle of mus
ketry , the groans of the wounded and
the spectacle of the dead and dying was
too much for his enfeebled Intellect. He
suddenly stood up in his stirrups and
tried to catch the cannon balls which ar
Austrian battery was firlnq over the head :
of himself and staff. At present the mad
ness of Prince Otto has assumed the
Form of fancying himself to have boon
turned by some magic spell into a lion
and to suppose that ho is aunt up In an
iron cage llko a wild beaat. Ho roan ,
10 springs about his room , bites and
scratches his koepera. When King Louie
'eels need of a little excitement to stir
lim up from hla torpor aud ennui he
ocka himself up with his brother and for
loura , until they are both ready to drop
rom sheer physical exhaustion , they
rump around on all fours , jumping over
he table , upsetting and smashing the fur *
allure and filling the chateau with cries
hat roaomblo the roaring and howling of
iflld beasts than sounds uttered by hu-
uin throats. You might perhaps fancy
.hero . were a pair of kings of boasts be-
ilnd the doors of the room , but you

Talk Witt the Man Who Wrote in
Famous Verses ,

"Authors" of the Poem ,
New York World.
Mr. John W. Watson lives In n noa
brick house on Twcnty-tocond street. Th
reporter caught that gentleman by th
lapel of his coat and exclaimed : "An
you really the author of 'Boautlfu
Snow ? ' " Mr. Watson neither fainted no
exhibited any dealro to ran away , bu
bracing himself against the attack In thi
hall , with the air of a man who had jua
bidden tholr enemies to do his worst : "
am. " Ho then invited the reporter inti
a cosy little parlor and made the following -
ing statement : "I am not only the autho
of 'Snow' ( Mr. Watson invariably speak
of the poem by that abbreviated po
name ) , "but am also the author of 'Thi
Dying Soldier , ' Ring Down the Drop ,
'Farmer Brown , ' nnd several other equal
ly well-known poems , "
Mr. Watson said , moro seriously : "J
have often boon nsked to wrlto oat mi
story of the poem , but have always de
clined. The truth is the dispute , if . '
may call It so , has always been an annoyance
anco to mo , and I have thought that tui
boat way to settle it was to let it alone
but It scorns tint the ghost will not be
laid. I do not regard It as a matter o :
much consequence anyhow , nnd fool that
I have written several as gocd or bottci
poems , some of which bavo attained
great popularity. I tblnk I can say with1
ont egotism , that my poems of twenty-
fiyo years ago originated a now taste , 01
school , if yon will , of which Trowbridge
Carlo ton and a few others are worth }
followers. Yes , I wrote iho poem ol
which you spoilc In November , 1858 , at
the house of Mr. Sam Colt In Hartford
and mailed It next morning to the Hat1
pers , to whoso weekly and monthly J
cent all my writings at that tlmo. 1
was published in No. 100 of the weekly ,
and
i KECEIVED § 15 roil IT.
That was liberal pay for the tirao. Tin
Harpers are always liberal , and elmwod
It ten years after by presenting mo wltl
the copyright of all my poems. In 18Gi
I sold It again to Burner Brothers & Co.
of Philadelphia for $500 , who pabllshec
it in a volume with twonty-fivo of mj
other poems , a volume that sold , the publishers
lishors told me , 32,000 copies in tot
months at $ l,2o each. The success was
too great for the youthful firm of pub
llahcra , for It caused their failure. Thoj
wcro so encouraged by this , their fits
venture , that they lushed into book spec
illations that swamped them , and
"Snow" passed into the bands of T. B.
Peterson & Co. of Philadelphia , whc
showed their appreciation of the authoi
by gathering up onoush of hla poems tc
make a second volnmo , altering the tlth
of the leading poem , ami publishing then
without even complimenting him with a
copy , ho knowing nothing of the bool
until ho picked it up in a Broadwa )
store. To this day I have never ro
colvcd a cent from Peterson nor n copy
of my book , though I have received offan
from thorn for a third book , but have rejected
jected them.
"Thero have beoa , " continued Mr.
Watann , with a mournful cadence in hie
musics ! voice , "ao many authors oi
'Snow1 that I only admit myself to my
self as eno of them. The first of these
who come prominently to the front was
one McM&ators , a portrait painter , who ,
finding the poem floating about
WITHOUT ANY VERY AVOWED AUTHOK ,
adopted it , although ho had never before
bcou suspected of a poetic vein. Ho got
hold of a very garbled copy of it and
with a letter sent It to the Sunday
Times , modestly admitting himself the
long-sought author. "
"What did you do ? " asked the re
porter.
"Well , at first , 1 was disposed to laugh
and do nothing , but Stephen Massott ,
who had been reading the poem in hla
entertainment of 'Drifting About' all
over the world , and who told me that the
poem hod been worth $10,000 t o him ,
took up McMaeters and bogged mo to go
and so him. Accompanied by a friend
I did so , and the follow repeated his as
sertion to HIP , declaring that ho could
produce proofs of it in two weeks. I
? ave him tire months , and I think bo's
looking for them yot. Thai's twenty
pears ago , and I have not heard of him
lines. Then now authors arose on every
ildo , especially In the west. Sometimes
t was reported that the manuscript had
30311 found on the person of a fallen
ivuman who had drowned herself in Cin-
innstl , and again It had been writ ! on by
ia obscure St. Louis editor , who never
vroto anything els ? , and having accom
plished thfs retired from the poetry
; rade. Then Elizabeth Akora and
3ora Shaw and Len Faxon , In turns ,
ook epel s at it through the nowspapois ,
tot exactly claiming it , but giving it out
n a sly sort of way that the author w stet
tot a groati distance oil. I believe the
loom has never yet been openly claimed
> y any ono possessing any literary talent
rhatover. A man having aenaa enough
on rite an ordinary poem would never
ntontlonally Income a plagiarist , or llt-
irary thief , though ho might duplicate
bought unknowingly. Bat the most
vndorfal of all those follows , and one
rho gave me the moat serious annoyance ,
ras a rssoil named William H , Slgour-
ley , and professing to bo a nephew of
ho husband of the authoress , hla real
iame I forgot. Ho claimed to bo a com

; rrph announcing that the author of
Beautiful Snow1 had been amated
omowhoio for obtaining goods under
alao pretences , or for ntoallng type , or
licking pockets.
"Thero wasn't much Inducement for
ao at that time to acknowledge myself
