public Office and even in this instance
he had requested the delegates not to
nominate him. On February list, 1899,
he opened law offices in the city of
Milwaukee in partnership with Mr..
John ]. Maher, under the firm name of
Bohmrich & Maher. He has shown
marked ability as lawyer, owing
chiefly to his extended experience in
commercial life. He is now 45
years old, powerful and elo-
quent orator, close student of po---
cal economy, thorough American and
patriotic in his sentiments and public
utterances. Gen. Fairchild in 1896
appointed him on the commute of one
hundred from the state in contempla-
ton of celebration of Wisconsin's
semi-centennial. He was a member of
the democratic state central COM
mittee few years ago and delegate
at large to the recent Kansas City cou-
vention. He is the father of three
lovely daughters, of whom the Oldest
Miss Stella Bohmrich, is now II years
of age. Miss Stella as we'll as Hilda
are attending the high school al
Kenosha and are known to be bright
children. Lulu, the youngest daughter
of Mr.. Bohmrich, will be IA years oldin
November next; she is a musician oil
great talent and an excellent violinist
having studied under Prof. Schultz
since she was seven years old. Being
a man OF good habits, he is an eXen-
plary father of his most respected fam
lily and his nomination is looked upon
as strong one, a credit to his party
and the state. Although practiclng
law at Milwaukee ne still resides at
Kenosha, and his townspeople and
home press, republican as well as
Democratic, speak well of him. Bohm-
rich has been for many years past a
member of Racine Lodge of Elks and
of Kenosha Lodge of Knights Of
Pythias. He is an honorary member
of the large German-American Maen-
ner Verein OF Racine, and other clubs.

A Liberal Ruler.

King Humbert was constitutional
monarch in the full extent: he reigned
but did not govern; nothing that he
has ever said of himself is quoted; his
personality was lost in his constitu-
tionality; he was seen constantly-in
the streets, in the parliament, at re-
views, and at no end of inauguratlons
of statues and monuments to his
father, to Garibaldl or to some other
of the revolutionary heroes of modern
Italy.
Charles II of England said of him
self that he never said a foolish
thing" King Humbert, so far as the
public is concerned, could not even be
thus described, for he has said nothing
at all
He is to be buried, they say, in the
Pantheon, beside his father.
At the time of the death of the latter
there was a question whether or no he
was reconclled to the church on his
deathbed, and the settlement of that
question is not generally known.
There was doubt as to the man.
ner and time of the death OF the father;
there is none as to that Of the son.
The pope on hearing the news ex-
pressed his great sorrow, but he has
striven TO induce this government of
Italy to assist in the effort to remove
the causes Of anarchy and crime by the
spread of religion and charity.

have seen him closely on many oc-
casions, and he always appeared a
quiet, self-absorbed, gracious and
suave parsonage. While he was still a
young prince, 1 remember how an
American. painter with whom l was
driving close to Porta Pia, descended
from the carriage and went forward
to meet Prince Humbert, who was rid
ing a splendid brown horse. The
prince graciously stopped and inclined
his head to hear what the artist had
to say to him, and he acceded to the re-
quest urged on him, which was that he
would sit for his portrait by this artist.
Afterward he came to the studio and
the portrait was made
An invitation to dine at the Quirnal
palace was sent to the artist, who was
deeply interested in the bea lty and
charm of conversation of the Princess
Margaret, as she was at that time.
Quiet, taciturn, absorbed in his own
thoughts-such was Prince Humbert as
remember him.
On one occasion | was close to him
in the halls of the capitol during a
crowded reception. He was in even
dress and wore no decorations, so in
the crowd he shared the discomforts
of crushing.
One of the sons of the then khedive
of Egypt trod upon the foot of the
prince, and under the pang the calm
look on his countenance gave way to
a momentary expression OF nIerceness.
AT the capitol again have seen him
as king, radiant with joy that he had
as his guest and ally William II, en-
peror of Germany. Here all the men,
bers of the royal family Of Savoy, and
they are numerous enough, were pres
ent to do honor to the great imperial
friend.
In 1898 again joy came to the house
of Savoy, when King Humbert and
Queen Margaret celebrated their silver
wedding, and when the emperor and
empress of Germany came to share in
the rejoicings or that occasion.
AS an individual personality, he has
left but little mark on his age
His father Victor 1Epu a nuaI had n
will of his own, and he had the occa-
sion Of making himself remembered.
1t was under his rule that the move
ment which ended by making him king
of the whole country by force Of arms
was achieved.
Ugly as he was to look at, Victor
Emmanuel attached people to him by
his independence and vigorous charac-
