Napoleon. Birthplace.

Historically, Ajaccio, Corsica, Is Of
the utmost Importance. for here 1t was
that, on the fifteenth of August, 1863
Napoleon Bonaparte was born, and here
It was that the future emperor spent
his youth, enlightened by an intelligent
and lovely mother. The Casa Ma.
poleonp Is one of the-or l should say
the principal building in Ajacclo. 1t Is
a solid three-story building, with gray
stucco walls and a number OF large
windows. Situated In the old part of
the town, one would scarcely find Ii
were It not for the boys who tender
their services to guide the stranger to
the place.
Although plundered In 1913 by the
partisans of Paoli, the heroic Corsican
fighter for liberty. the house still con
tains few "reminiscences of the great
warrior. Besides a number of ordinary
rooms, each containing some furniture.
one finds the bedroom where Napoleon
was born, as well as Napoleon's sleep
ing and study room, with his bed and
table; his fathers study, still beauti.
fully furnished. and the drawing-room
In which are his mothers piano and her
sedan chair.--Four-Trac News.
