SKETCH OF NEW KING

Of King Edward VII

of England and emperor OF India, II may
be well TO cast a brief glance al the no"
ruler Of Great Britain and Of her depen-
denotes: and to consider the imms late
results Of his accession TO the chief exc
cutive power in the realm. OF his por-
sonality much more IS known than Of h's
political views. For, with q tact and
deucacy unprecedented IA the history of
the heirs apparent to the British throne,
the Prince of Wales has been 50 cer5ful
to avoid giving expression Of mis- po-
litical views that not even his most irii-
mate friends and lifelong associates are
able to speak about them with am de-
gree Of certainty.
That the prince is keenly interested IN
both domestic and foreign politics avery

and attentive listeners 10 the debafss IN

the Conservatives or towards the Lloer-
ais, whether ne favors the Nationalist

HER MAJESTY
Continued from First page

some delay an attendant appeared, re-
porting that the princess was asleep ana
could not be disturbed. They assured
her that their business required instant
attention.
soon thereafter the young queen en-
tered clad in a dressing gown and shawl
and with slippers on her feet. Greville,
secretary Of the privy council and court
ohronicier, reports that on Lord Conyng-
; ham .urtering the significant words.
Your Majesty she put forth her hand
to be kissed before ne proceeded, and
that he, dropping on one knee, kissed her
hand and then gave the tlding Of the
kings death.
Another well known authority adds that
when the archbishop had made the formal
announcement Of her accession to the
throne her first words were: y ask your
prayers on my behalf"
The dream Of the mother had been
realized.
Accepted Affairs of Once,
Queen Victoria took the affairs Of her
court in hand at once. She wos Of
notably gracious disposition, but FORUM
ately she knew how to frown and whom
to frown upon She paid her fathers
long standing debts. Her preceptor, DR..
Davys, she made Bishop Of Peterborough.
She removed the royal residence and
court to Windsor Castle, which has since
become one Of the grandest palaces on
earth.
The incident Of paying her fathers
debts illustrates her character. He had
borrowed Of his friends, and the duchess
mother had coached her in laying aside
money, even while she was child, with
view one day of paying these heavy
obligations Out Of the royal income
which fell to her she Hquldated the last
Of these, which had been beyond the
means Of herself and mother.
On the throne of England the young
woman found Disadvantages in spinster-
hood. Her advisers suggested as much
to her. Every prince imperial in Europe
was a more or less acknowledged sutton
for her hand.
1T had been the wish of the Duchess Of
Kent chat Victoria should marry her cou- 1

The Savannah morning news., 1901-02-18
THE MURDER OF POLICEMAN FEN
DER,

The killing of Policeman Fender by the
negro sport Brooks goes into the category
with the recent murder of Motorman
Narnedoe by a negro. These and similar
bloody crimes are sufficient 10 cause
thoughtful white men to ask themselves
the question. Is there any hope of civiliz-
ing the negro race? The murderers OF
both the motorman and the policeman are
young colored men whose daily life
brought them into contact with the better
class of white men, from whom they had
every advantage to learn how to conduct
themselves in a decent and law-abiding
manner. And yet these two negroes de-
liberately shot white men down while the
latter were engaged in the discharge OF
their duties.
In the murder Of Fender, the negro
Brooks had shot another man of his own
race. and was fleeing from arrest on ac-
count of that crime In few minutes
after his first crime of violence Brooks
shot down the representative OF the law
who, in the discharge of his sworn duty
as a protector Of the lives and properly
of the citizens, must have tried to stop
and arrest him.
Savannah. however, is not the only city
in which such savage and bloody crimes
are committed by negroes. Nor are South
ern communities peculiar in this respect
In the North, East and West-wherever
the negro is to be found-it is the same
story of desperate crime and bloodshed by
negroes.
Had Brooks crime been committed in
Western city, like Leavenworth, Kan, he
would in all probability have already been
lynched-perhaps burned at the stake But
here in Savannah he will get legal trial.
and, maybe like the murderer of Motor
man Varncdoe, escape the gallows.
