Old Pete ~. ts.l..t, who founded the

cious sover,ico. lie made so bold as
to build the present russian capital on
soil that actually belonged to Sweden.
He had set his eye along the Scandi-
uavian peninsula with the purpose of
extending his boundaries to the sea,
thus acquiring a Russian port on the
Atlantic. But Peter died before he
could accomplish this. He left a Sc
cret will, one section Of which en-
Joined his successors to carry out his
dream Of acquiring an Atlantic sea-
board. Some historians hold that this
80 called will, which was not produced
until Peter had been dead about a hun
dred years, was manufactured by Ma
poleon. In any event Peter tried hard
to win the Russian way to the sea
over the ruins Of Sweden, but that ma
SAOu tuCu was OuC VI lax A1O0k ROwCA-

feated. Russia has been looking ever
since with longing toward that lea
board, and it Is conceded that the
present car and his predecessor had
more or less definite plans for carry
ing out the scheme Of Scandinavian
invasion. The result of the wal with
Japan no doubt has put a new face on
that proposition for the present.
Now this young Prince Will
helm Of Sweden. four generations from
the first Bernadotte. The insult Of a
Swedish prince to a Russian princess
more than a hundred years ago made
this young sailor prince a member OF
royalty. Otherwise he might now he

sake Of the argument, as a tailor or
shopkeeper in rural France, where de

Gay and Pretty Princess.

Prince Wilhelm, it Is said, Is an affa-
BILE young man. fond Of tennis and 9TH
err outdoor sports. His age Is twenty
three. The girl whom he Is to marry
is unusually beautiful for a princess.
1t Is a we'll known fact that the aver.
age woman of royal blood is ugly
enough to cause the collapse Of a scare
crow in a Kansas cornfield. But this
little Princess Maria has had unusual
advantages. Her mother died when
| Maria was an infant. The father then
married a oma not connected with
royalty. This brought about his O.
| pulsion from Russia. Maria was euu-
Gated in England and France. Her
| culture Is said to be decidedly more
English than Russian. Recently her ia
| Their, the Grand Duke Paul, was per
mitted to return to Russia. Maria
Pavlovna, say the gossips, is a very
gay and light hearted girl. Probahl!
she is a great deal more so than II
she had been reared in Russia. In an!
event her marriage to the Swedish
prince and her consequent departur,
from stricken and struggling Russia tt
a secure haven in the new house nea1
Stockholm. now building. should be {
good thing for the pretty princess
whatever may be the influence of thu
marriage upon the political relation!
of the two nations. In view of al
these facts, all of us are constrained t
hope that the prince will get ava.
from Newport without any permanent
injury to his digestion.

The Sailor Prince.

Prince Wilhelm is the second son
Of the crown prince Of Sweden. He
Is known as the sailor prince. having
taken up the naval profession. The
real object Of his coming to America
has nothing to do with Newport. His
grandfather, King Oscar, has sent him
over in response to an invitation from
President Roosevelt, who desired a
Swedish representative to visit the
Jamestown Tercentennial exposition.
Charles w. Kohlsaat, European com
missioner for the exposition, presented
the invitation at the Swedish court.
AS a war vessel also was desired for
display in Hampton Roads, opposite
the exposition, the king appropriately
assigned the sailor prince, who is a
lieutenant on the Swedish cruiser
Fylgia, a fine new vessel which has
been rushed to completion so that it
might arrive in time to take part in
the festivities Of Swedish week at the
exposition, beginning Aug. 10 and con-
tinuing to Aug. "a.
The prince, Of course, is docketed for
various banquets at the Jamestown ex-
position and likewise in New York and
Newport. BY the time he leaves Amer.
lea he will have discovered one potent
fact-namely, that in the United States
the injunction to eat, drink and be mer-
~ applies to princes as we'll as to pie
beians and plutocrats.

In Love With a Princess.

In his own right Prince Wilhelm Is
quite an interesting young fellow. He

cess, whose title is grand duchess and
whose name is Maria Pavlovna. is a
first cousin Of the cZar Of Russia adds
largely to the interest Of the outside
