An international event Of import

ed and revised by the late prince him
self. The work. edited by the we'll
known Bismarckian historiOgrapher,
Herr Horst Kohl, is to appear shortly
under the title of Gedanken and Erin

Reflections constitute not alone the
autobiography of a great statesman,
but the most important contribution
to historical literature in the last
quarter of a century. The book ap-
pears simultaneously from the house
of Harper & Brothers in New York,
under the title, in English, Of Bis

Germany, from Smith, Elder & Co. in
England. 1t is very interesting to
learn from the Berlin correspondence
in the London Daily News that Prince
Bismarck, as q man Of rs, was about to

turning from barbarism to an Aus
trallan city he did not reveal the story
OF his adventures to any Australians,
although he remained there some time
before going to England. Although
he claims to be a Frenchman born and
bred, De Rougemont speaks English
with much greater tuency than
French. Then, too, in Sydney, Austria
liza, a leading newspaper affirms that
De Rougemont resided in that city
for IL years under the name of Henri
Grien, but left the colony Is months
ago, leaving a wife and family. This
seems likely, for the man went about
as Grien for a while after his arrival
in London.
At last accounts London opinion
was still divided as to the genuine
ness of De RougemOnt. Although de-
nounced as an imposter by one lead
ing paper, he draws large audiences to
his lectures, and the popular maya
zine continues to print instruments of
his remarkable adventures in exile

A WRONGED EMPRESS.
/ he Tickle Viennese Made Elizabeth's
Life as Tragic as Her Death

THE Jubilee year was not all joy to
the Austrians because Of the estrange-
ment of the empress from her people, -
writes Edward A. Steiner of The
Tragedy of a Jubilee Year in the
Woman's Home Companion.
Long ago she was their idol They
loved the beautiful Bavarian princess,
with the face of an angel and the
grace of goddess. They swung
their hats and cheered as she rode on
her splendid horse through the crowd
ed avenues of the Prater, and the
stories they told one another of her
goodness were not exaggerated. But
the Viennese crowd is tickle, and not
only tickle, but loves to discuss and
magnify a scandal, especially if it
touches royalty. Stories came to the
empress which wounded her pride and
turned her from her imaginative an
ungr2teful subjects. She neglected
Vienna and the Viennese, and the peO-
pie never forgave her for it, Since the
death Of her son she has lived like a
nun and incurred like a true mother
while the gay Viennese longed for the
pomp, glitter and glory of former
days. Hers was tragic life as well
as tragic death. She died a home
less, broken-hearted woman, away
from the court of Vienna, which she
hated, and away from the people who
uad so cruelty wrOnged her. Elizabeth
was woman of superior mind. She
was eccentric, but always pure, and
far too good woman to be compelled
to waste her life in the musty, scan
dal-breeding atmosphere of the Hof-
burg in Vienna. Francis Joseph, her

husband, is true Hapsburg. He is
neither a great statesman nor a great
soldier. He has never ruled his peo-
pie; he has been content to drift with
the tide. During his reign Austria
has lost it's once prominent place
among the nations, and it is now pre-
dicted by the best students of the
political situation that the empire will
go to pieces before another quarter OF
d century has passed away. There
is no statesman in Austria capable OF
averting this calamity. The en-
peror, like his forefathers, loves the
chase better than the business of
governing, and the chamois in the
Alps and his many hunting castles are
his diversion and places of refuge"
