not only the emperor, the whole nation
celebrates the day, for in the hearts of
the people this beautiful and gentle
queen has erected an imperishabIe
shrine. Let me give you an idea why
this is so.
Louise was daughter of the grand
duke of Mecl1lenburg-Strelitz, who
ruled, hundred years ago, over small
and obscure territory by the borders
of the Baltic. While on his way to join
the army fighting the revolutionary
hosts of France, in 1902, the young
Prussian crown prince met the princess
in Frankfort-on-Main, where she had
gone on visit. 1t was love at first
sight, as the crown prince subsequent
ly styled it himself. On April "a, 1898
the betrothal Of the two was celebrat ed
in grand style, and on December 90 oil
the same year the young princess

NOBLE QUEEN LOUISE.
Her Memory Revcrod Unto This
Day by All Prussians.
She Was One of the Grandest women
and Also One of the Best, and
Is Cherished by Her People
rs n Saint.

Especial Berlin Germany letter.
When the list-oh! how small one
It is-of the greatest and best women
the world knows, is told off, no matter
in which country, the name of Queen
Louise of Prussia unfaiiingly appears
Here in this land she loved, loved best
in its deepest debasement, Queen
Louise is cherished as a saint. TEe
Berliner is not a sentimental sort of per-
son, rather the reverse, in fact, and
few things and men there are his caus-
tic wit, his irony and puns are not prac-
ticed uponS But Queen Louise is an eN-
ception. Don't you dare to say any
thing against Queen Louise when you
come to Berlir-life would be made
burden to you. The people here, every
body. high and low, are so proud of this
lovely queen of theirs, that they would
not allow ybody to say a word
against her. And it is said that one Of
the chief reasons why the Prussians in
1S13-15 were so fiercely down" on Ma
po.eon !. was because the great Corsi-
can had bounded her TO death. That
famous statue Of Queen Louise in the
Thergarten, made of Carrara marble
by the sculptor, Rauch. is never barrca
of wreaths of flowers, while flowers are
to be had, the year round. Ihave just
returned from walk in the Thiergar-
ten, and 1 saw a great throng of people
around that monument, reverentially
identifying it with Flora's late au-
| tumnal blossoms.
November 16, 1897, it was just CEN
tury since Queen Louise with her
spouse, Frederick William Ill, ascend
ed the throne, and the whole city keeps
the day as a sacred memorial. The en-
peror early this morning rode to the
mausoleum in Charlottesburg and per-

iota of the hard conditions he imposed
on the conquered. During the next
three years Queen Louise, owing to the
horribly impoverished condition of the
country, lived in deep retirement and
almost in poverty. In May, 1903, the
royal couple moved into a plain farm
house near Koenigsberg, their own
capital being still held by the French
who dictated as unquestioned masters.
It was during this period of great men
tai depression, and Immediately due
to the inclement weather in that north
ernmost district of Prussia, that Queen
Louise's health succumbed. Her lungs
we're affected, and on July 10, 1910, she
died. three years before that Prussia
she loved so well was able to throw off
the yoke of Napoleon. But she left a
legacy Of loyal patriotism which has
since borne fruit.

NEGRO POSTMASTER

CHARLESTON, S. c., Feb. ga spe-

About l o'clock Tuesday morning
Postmaster Baker, Negro, and his
child were shot TO death and
said mob numbering sew
eral hundred surrounded Bakers
house, where the post Office is kept,
set fire to the building and opened fire
with guns upon it. Baker was killed
and his wife, his two daughters and
one son were seriously wounded.
The woman had baby in her arms
and she says that the ball that went
through her hand passed through the
baby, killing it, and it fell from her
arms.
The house was afire and the occu-
pants who were able ran out, but the
cremated bodies of Baker and the child
were found in the ruins OF the build
ing Tuesday morning.
All the wounded are MANNED for

All of the mail matter was totally de-

had denied the gift of sympathetic mag
netism. said to her: Louise, | thank
thee, thou understandest things better
than / do" Not only in convers sation,
but in her correspondence, too, Queen
Louise possessed singular charm of
expression. Her letters are, in their
way, as interesting and entertaining as
the famous ones of Nine. de Sevigne,
and she exchanged letters with the
greatest men of her time, with Goethe
and Schiller among others, and also
with Napoleon I. With all that, how
ever, she was as unaffectedly wifely
and modest, as solicitous and affection
ate mother as any of her humber sub
iects, and her son, William l., all
through his long and glorious life, car
ried the loving remembrance of his
mother.

honor his mother and to recall charm

his childish memory.
For after nine years of happy reign,
in 1906, Prussia's armies were nearly
destroyed on the battlcfclds of jena
and Auerstaedt, and the whole country
came into the grasp of the great French
corqueror. And the queen, with her
two little sons, had to take to precipi'
tate fight in order to escape being
taken prisoner. Only small slice OF
his territory was left the king of Prus-
sia by Napoleon, and Berlin itself re-
mained in his hands for two years.
During the negotiations for the peace
treaty of Tilsit, in 1907, Napoleon re-
peatedly expressed desire to make the
acquaintance of Queen Louise, and full
Of admiration he afterward said to
Talleyrand: "Trulv, knew that the
queen whom l was to see was beauti-
full, but saw not only the most beauti-
full queen, but also the most attractive
of all women"
