Gladstone on Montenegro's Traditions.

We have the greatest respect for
Prince Nicholas of Montenegro, but a
patural Discrimination to have to start
reading history all over again from the
beginning makes us hope that Mr.. Glad
stones compliment to him, conveyed
through The Chronicle, may carry a
little more than the stern facts Of the
case:
tsIp my deliberate opinion the tradi-
lions of Montenegro, now committed to
his highness as a sacred trust, exceed in
glory those of Marathon and Thermopy-
lac and all the war traditions Of the
world.
Prince Nicholas will be an ungrateful
man If he does not grow warm all over
on reading this, but is it not a little
hard on the rest of the world? How
ever, here is chance for the writers Of
historical romance. They are said to be
rather hard up for new periods just
nav. Why, then, not try Montenegro?
