Duke of SaXe-Weimar. 1t naturally fol-
lows that Holland under her would be-
come de facto, If not dc jure, part and
parcel of the north German empire. AT
any rate, it would be brought within
what Is known as the sphere of Berlin in
fluence, with all that that implies in a
military, political and commercial
sense.
Rather than have this happen tho people
Of Holland are anxious for Wilhelmina to
wed, and yet they are as jealous of her
suitors as though each ono of her subjects
felt personal responsibility in the mat
ter. Indeed 1t is no stretch of the imagi-
nation to say that each one does have Just
that feeling
Wilhelmina Is well versed In history,
and especially in the history Of royal
houses, and she intimated that some peo-
pie in Europe were trying to play the part
which Elizabeth played when she forced
the worthless Darnley upon Mary Stuart
and of Guizot when he made Isabella OF
Spain marry Francis d d'Assisi
So the queen will marry when she gets
ready and not before. However the polit-
ical tricksters of Europe may desire to
marry the queen OIL to some one of their
own choosing, the Dutch people are not
at all in hurry to have her marry. This
young lady Of lS quite suits them as she is
for the present They expect her to marry
some time, but not now
Queen Wilhelmina Is the only young
lady of her age in the kingdom who has
reached her majority Any girl in Hol-
land not heir to throne is not of age un-
til she is 23 years old To become of age
ct lS Is one OF the queens especial privi-
leges.
Wilholmina Is well informed on all sub
jects which are generally taught young
ladies, and several other subjects she has
taken up Of her own yolition in order that
she might be better fitted for her position
She has made an especial study of inter.
national law and the science Of govern
ment, and even has taken special courses
In the art and science of war and naval
and maritime science Riding and hunt
Ing are her favorite amusements
Whoever the prince is that wins her
hand he will be very fortunate person,
for not only Is Queen Wilhelmina pleasing
to look at as well as light hearted. witty
and yivacious but she Is one of the richest
soyereigns in Europe The civil list of
Holland, which is secured on the revenues
of the Dutch colonial possessions, is about
$3.50, 600, 900 year, which should bo am
pie to keep even u royal couple in most
comfortable style. The real estate attached
to the throne Of Holland is extensive,
there being as many as four palaces al
ready furnished and waiting TO be oocu.

of any princes who may read this that

SUCH is WlLHELMlNA, WHO NOW
RULES THE NETHERLANDS.

She Is Pretty and Modest, but Has win
of Her Own and Knows when to Ex-
ert It-wu Choose a Husband when
She Is Ready.
The installation of Wilholmina as queen
Of the Netherlands means very little to us
on this side Of the ocean. IL has been a
most interesting and picturesque event, no
doubt, but our nation is very big and very
busy, and we have not much time to de.
vote TO the current history of the old
world so long rs 1t does not directly affect
us. We are in the history making bust.
ness ourselves.
But the assumption of royal power by a
young woman of Is, even In such di-
minutive kingdom as that Of the Neither
lands, Is something that is worth our
while TO stop and consider Today there
are only two rcigning queens In Europe
Wilhelmina is one of them, and the other
will probably soon pass away and leave
her as the only woman in Europe who has
absolute sway over q kingdom
For some years we have heard Of viii.
helmina as 1.-THE girl queen of Holland. "
Now she is no longer the girl queen. "
She is young woman and u real queen.
She Is as sweet and modest and unassum
ing young woman as you could wish TO
meet, and it is very likely she will make
a very good queen
But with all her sweetnoss'and modesty
the queen is u young lady of very decided
character and not inclined TO yield to the
politicians unless she is convinced that
they are right. When they picked out q
husband for her some time ago she refused
to have anything to do with the young
man, and, assembling her council, in.
formed the members that when she want.
ed husband shc would pick one out her.
self, and that the intrigues of all the
courts ana the pressure of all the countries
of Europe would not make her marry a
man she did not love.
1t was not nero spirit of meddlesome-
ness which caused the Dutch politicians to
be interested in her love affairs, for the
marriage of their queen means much to
her subjects. The Hollanders know that
her death without heir would mean the
death of their political independence and
thoir commercial prosperity. According TO
the constitution, the crown would devOlve

core, and as such is regarded as among the
main pillars of the German empire.
Indeed none of the petty sovereigns who
form the federation known as the German
empire possesses more commanding and
predominant influence on the national af.

"Honest Sam" was Republican until
1872, when he followed Horace Greeley
into tho Democratic party. He has been
chairman Of his party's city and county
committee, candidate for representative
and senator, nominee for alderman and
member OF the local board of registration.
He is now in the middle of his third term
