VICTORIA AND THE JEWS.
How the Queen of England Owes Her
Throne to Sir Moses MontefiOre

HOW the Queen of England Owes Her
Throne to Sir Moses MOntefiOre
In these days of the Victoria jubilee many
stories are told about the queen -empress,
and all seem to interest the public.
Inc fact that the present lord mayor of
London is d Jew reminded a story teller of
the following incidents in the history of
the queen, says the New York Tribune
Her father the Duke of Kent, was a Door
man. and the intimate friend of Moses
Montefiore. one Of the leading men In the
London Jewish community. They had
tastes In common, and the Jew liked the
poor nobleman because he never asked for
money, while the nobleman admired the
Jew for his charity and honesty. Their
friendship was never threatened by dis
cussions on political or religious TOPICS
AT the time when an heir was expected
IN the family OF the Duke of Kent, Monte
More urged his friend to take his wife to
England, so that there might be no OBJ
stacle In the way Of the child's advancing
to the throne. although there were then
three lives between 1t and the possible little
Kent. The duke confessed that his means
would not permit him to do so. and Monte
more urged his friend to allow him to at
tend to the transportation and housing Of
the invalid duchess. The trip was made,
and the Duchess of Kent was attended by
Montefiore's family physician. His kind
ness was never forgotten by the duke and
the preferment of the Jews in England
since then and the removal of obstacles
which had hampered their social. CONNER
cial and political advancement have been
attributed by many to the kindness of
Moses Montefiore, who became lord high
sheriff of London. and lived to see one of
his race premier. Jews were chosen to the
position Of lord mayor. one of the number
the father of the present incumbent, and
seventy-six years after the little girl was
born. on the day when the daughter Of the
poor duke was the central figure in the
greatest demonstration in the annals Of the
world, Jewish lord mayor welcomed her
at the gate Of her royal capital.
