rambles. IN the velvet pile of this car
pet we stuck abundance of partridge
vines, full of red heads that lasted all
winter. Here and there was clump
of gray-eyed lichen fast IT, bit of bark.
The month was October, and we dug
up fringed gentians in flower and in
bud; dwarf ferns, including maiden
hair, and fine root of pitcher-plant.
Scraping aside tha pine needles where
we had found arbutds last spring, we
lighted upon clusterog leaves, spotted
with brown, and jagged as if squirrels
had gnawed them. We uprooted the
plants carefully and transferred them
to the corner formerly occupied by the
leprous colony of fish. Other roots
went in--woolly-leaved incognitas with
a baby-pine, and streamer of wild
lycopodium. From the garden we Sc
lected stocky begonia for the central
figure of the parterre; ribbon-grass, En-
glish ivy and tradescantia--("W Wandering
Jew') a variety with silvery-streaked
leaves. Deep in the soil we buried half
a dozen hyacinth-bulbs, with q mass OF
violet-roots, and dozen crocuses.-

friendship with the Crown Prince Ru-
dolf of Austria. Prince Williams re-
lations with his imperial friend have
become so intimate that the conse-
quences of this friendship can hardly
be estimated. The future history of
Germany and Austria will undoubtedly
show its effects.
About this time the public began to
gossip about the Prince. He was said
to lead rather a fast life, and to be
somewhat too sensible to the charms of
the fair sex. To tell the truth, Prince
William enjoyed life, and in doing SO
did not neglect the advantages which
his rank offered him. His parents,
therefore, were very glad when their
boy showed an inclination to settle
down at his own hearth by marrying Il
princess who, although she did not
suit the Imperial Court in every re-
spect, was not looked upon with abso-
lutte distavor
The political convictions of Prince
William were always those of the Cham
cellor, and this means n good under
standing with Russia at the expense Of
England as regards foreign affairs and
subsection of liberalism in domestic
politics. The Emperor's aversion for
England is a peculiarly, which may
be explained by his dislike for his
mother, who could neither gain her
sons friendship nor the Chancellors.
The young Prince was highly impressed
by his own rank, and naturally deeply
lamented his bodily defects, which he
ascribed and still ascribes to his moth
ers faults. Besides lame arm, the
Emperor suffers from very repulsive
and incurable ear disease, which he
contracted while afflicted with scarlet
fever. In fact, his mother seems also
to be responsible for this disease, as
she, believing strongly in hardy treat
ment, exposed the Prince, when conya-
lescent, to the open air.
The religious convictions of the En-
peror have long been topic of fire.
quent conversation. The liberal cur
rent in Germany is closely allied with
the Jewish element. If, therefore, the
Emperor is the enemy of the one he
must be the enemy of the other. The
fact is the Emperor has long been
known to be an ardent disciple of an
tisemitism. He did not shrink, while
a simple prince, from breaking through
the limits prescribed by his response
bic position, in order to show his SYM
pathy with the anti-Jewish movement
Any one acquainted with German in
situations knows well that a movement
of this nature would be impossible un-
less encouraged by personages of high
rank. This demeanor of the Prince
can be partly explained by the fact
that he strictly adheres to the orthodox
faith of the Christian Church, in har-
mony with his grandfather, but in en-.
tire discord with the late Emperor.
Neither in public nor religious affairs
does the Prince believe in the theory
of Frederick the Great, that everyone

FOUR NOTED BROTHERS.
DAVID. STEPHEN. CYRUS, AND HENRY
FIELD.

Tho Most Famous Quartctte of Brothers
Living In America at the Present Day
A Brief but Interesting sketch of Their
Lives.
There is rarely time when one at
least of the four Field brothers is not
prominently before the public. Ste
phen j. Field has for a number of years
been an Associate Justice of the high
est judicial tribunal in the land, and
was very prominently mentioned for
the Chief-Justiceship at the time of
Judge Waite's death. Not long ago
Cyrus w. Field drew to himself the
sympathy of the country on account of
financial reverses that cut down his
fortune by few millions. A few
weeks earlier Henry M. Field added to
his fame In a controversy with Bob"
Ingersoll, and, from time to time, David
Dudley Field, the Oldest of the broth
ers, looms before the public view in
some important movement of legal re-
form.
All the brothers are advanced in
years, and perhaps before great
while the edifice of family greatness
they have reared will begin to fall
away.
David Dudley Field, father of the
four brothers, whose portraits are
herewith presented, was native
of East Clifford (now Madison),
Conn. Born May 20, 1871, he died in
Stockbridge, Mass, April 16, 1867.
Though clergyman, he was mainly
distinguished for historical researches.
David Field, his oldest son, was born
in Haddam, Conn, February 13, 1905.
He graduated at Williams in 1925.
The main works on which Mr.. Field
has won his distinction are the politi-
cal, penal, and civil codes of the State
of New York. These were completed
in 1865. New York has adopted the
penal code, and California and Dakota
have adopted the three works. These
compilations suggested to Mr.. Field
the preparation of n still more impor
tant work entitled Outlines of an In
ternational Code" which was com
pleted in 1873, and has been translated
into French, Italian and Chinese. The

work has resulted in the formation of
an association for the codifcation of
the laws of nations, and the substitu-
ton of arbitration for war, of which
Mr.. Field is President.
Stephen Johnson was born in Had
dam, Nov. 4, 1916. He also graduated
at Williams in 1887, standing at the
head of his class. He studied law with
his brother in New York, and in 40
went to San Francisco. He was a
member Of the first California Legisla-
ture, and in 1857 was elected Judge
of the Supreme Court of the State, be-
coming Chief Justice in 1859. He was
appointed to the United States Su-
preme Court in 1863 He cast the de-
Gliding vote annulling the "iron.clad
oath" and voted with the Democratic
minority in the electoral commission
of 1877.
Cyrus West was born in Stockbridge,
Mass, Nov. -, 1919 Beginning at
fifteen years, he received his business
education in the New York store of A.
II. Stewart. He has long been mil
lionaire. In 1858, with Peter Cooper,
Moses Taylor, Marshall o. Roberts,
and Chandler White, each contributing
$40, 900, he Laid the first Atlantic cable.
Communication was established in
1853, but the cable soon parted, and it
was not until July 81, 1866, that Field S
immortal work was finally completed.
John Bright pronounced him the Go
lumbus of modern times"
Henry Martyr was born in Stock
bridge, Mass, April 3, 1922, and gradu-
ated at Williams in 1888. He studied
theology, and for five years was pastor
of a st. Louis Presbyterian church.
In 1913 he was in Paris, and witnessed
the revolutionary incidents of February
of that year. Going to Italy, he was
present during similar scenes there.
His book, "The Good and Bad of the
Roman Catholic Church." was the re-
suit of these experiences. Since 1854
he has been editor of the EUdnge liSt,
of which he is now the proprietor. He
has published many sermons and in

BY CURT A. MUSGRAYE.

On Jan. 81, 1859 the guns announced
to the inhabitants of Berlin the birth
of a prince The Princess Royal Vic
toria had presented her husband with
a boy, who, on March 3, was christened
Friedrich Wilhelm Viktor Albert. The
boy apparently was quite healthy, but
later it appeared that during his moth
er's confinement, attended 10y English
physicians, a grave mistake was made,
in cons aquence of which the Prince lost
the partial use of his right arm. This
circumstance was matter of great i'm
portance, because it instilled in the
mind of the young Prince certain
prejudice against everything English, a

Corps Borussia, and became so attached
to this society-which may be likened
to the Greek Letter Societies OF Ameri-
can universities-that he always was to
be seen at the corps entertainments,
wearing the black-white-black colors
of the society.
The influences of Bonn made the
Prince an enthusiastic admirer of Bis
marck, and he has always remained
sach up to the present day. At this
epoch the Princes political career prac-
tically commenced. He now began to
travel about for state purposes. About
this time, too, he formed two alliances
of great Importance. He became ac-
quainted with his future bride, the
Princess Augusta Victoria Won Schles-
wig-Holstein, and he formed sincere

prejudice which included his own moth
er, who insisted upon being attended
by an English physician.
Up to his sixth year the Prince was
instructed chiefly by his mother and q
governess. But in 1866 he was handed
over to Professor Hinzpeter, who super.
vised his education until the Prince be-
came of age.
The simplicity of the royal parents
caused them to choose simple methods
of instruction for their children. FoI
some weeks during the summer the
princely family used to live on their
estate of Bornstadt, near Potsdam, and
those weeks were always times of Joy
and pleasure to the young people OF
the neighborhood. On those occasions
great festivities took place, and the
royal children freely mixed with young
people of every rank and station.
Having acquired the rudiments of an
education, Prince William was sent ia
the gymnasium at Cassel. A German
gymnasium" is a public school foI
sons of the upper classes, where they
are prepared for the professions and
the university. The desire of the
Crown Prince that his son should be
treated like all the other pupils was
neither meant too seriously nor carried
out too strictly. But, nevertheless
Prince William, during his studies in
Cassel, became more intimately &C.
quainted with the life of the ordinary
German citizen than is generally the
case with those of his station. In Cas-
sci the royal pupil did not show him
self to be a genius, but lad of rather
moderate talents and good common
sense. In January, 1877, the Prince
passed the "Abitarenten Examin,
which entitled the graduate to enter
q German university, and furnishes the
key to professional careers in Ger
many. Out of seventeen competitors
the Prince came out tenth. The re.
suit of his examination, according tC
the certificate, was deemed sufficient
The Prince being 1S years of age on
Jan. 81, 1877, had attained his majority
and was presented by the Emperor
with the high Prussian order of the
Black Eagle. Now Prince William
entered upon his military career anC
was attached to the First Infantry
Regiment of the Guards. Six month:
later the Prince matriculated at the
University of Bonn as student of law
and the next two years were productive
of serious work as well as of those
pleasures which are peculiar TO German
student life. The Prince joined the

1t is quite natural for travellers in
foreign lands to compare objects seen
there with ones at home, though, in
fact, these comparisons are sometimes
amusing, as in the following anecdote /:
