ffths Austrian.
l. King Victor Emmanuel III. Is more
Austrian than Italian on account Of the
numerous crossings in his race and his
descendants will have Montenegro blood
in their veins.
Emperor Francis Joseph and his pre-
sumptive heir are as much Wittelsbach or
Estes as they are Hapsburgs. Consequently
they are for a large part Bavarians and
Italians.

7. The King OF Greece is Dane.
4. The King of Servia is half Russian.
O. The Prince of Bulgaria is Saxe-Co-
burg Gotham or a Bourbon, and has no
Bulgarian blood in him.

- The Queen Of the Netherlands IL de-
scended from the houses Of Orange, Nassau
and Waldeck -Pyrmont. Consequently she
| is az much German as Dutch.
49, The King Of England Is Saxe-Coburs-
| Hanover, Norman and French.
a. The Emperor of Germany Is Hohen-
| zollern bv his father. Guelfe or Brunswick
| Luneburg by his mother, daughter OF Queen
| Victoria and French by his ancestor, Louise
| de Coligny, the daughter Of the great Ad-
| miral murdered by Charles TX, and mar
| ried for the second time to William the
| Taciturn, of whom she was the fourth wife
| From this union there was one son, Henri
| Frederic of NassauOrange. born at Delft
| on the goth of January, 1854. His daughter,
| Louise Henriette, born at The Hague;
| Nov. 81, 1927, married in 1848 the Grand
| Elector, Frederic-William Of Brandenburg
| And there tegins the relation TO the Hohen-
| zollerns The son Of Frederic william OF
| Brandenburg and Of Louise Henriette OF
| Nassau Orange was the first TO take the
| title of King of Prussia. 1t is from him that
| the Uohenzollerns are descended Blu,
the strange thing about il Is that the Hohen-
zollern dynasty sprung from an assassna-
ton committed in Paris 800 years ago; When
| Louise de Coligny married William OF

was killed on August "a, 1872, with his
father -in-law, the Admiral. Consequently
il the King of France had not massa
cred his Huguenot subjects on saint Bar
tholomew's Day, the race OF the German
| emperors Of the nineteenth and twentieth
centuries would not have sprung from
Holland and France at the same time by
the marriage of the Taciturn to the daughter
Of Coligny. Another curious detail, one
which gives TO the origin OF the Hohen-
zollerns something of fatality. lies IN the
| fact that the second marriage OF Louise
de Coligny 10 the Stakeholder, the widower
of three wives, took place three months
before the murder Of that Prince by Bal
thazar Gerard on the stairway OF the Delft
| palace so that the son Of the Taciturn and
Louise de Coligny, Henry-Frederic OF Mas.

TO marry the Elector Of Brandenburg. was a
| posthumous son, born seven months AFTER
| the death of his father.
| All Of this goes 10 prove that the only
countries in the world where the supreme
| power is really exercised by the natives
| are the countries that have republican
| form of government.
