What Austria Celebrates.

Every nation in the civilized world
apparently can find in the record of
1909 something to "centennialize" this
year. Even Austria, which in 1909
underwent terrible humiliation at the
hands of Napoleon, is no exception,
for if its regular armies were defeat
ed, it's irregular patriots, the Tyrolese
under Andreas Hofer, won such vic
tories over the Franco-Bavarians that
it was only diplomacy that ruined
them. The Tyrolese, who had in 1905
been made Bavarians against their
will, endeavored, on the renewal of
the war between France and Austria
four years later, to rejoin their coun-
try to Austria. Even after Austria
had been compelled to yield they kept
on fighting. Under the leadership of
Hofer and his associates, who had had
no other experience in war than what
fell to their lot as militia officers, they
inflicted crushing defeats on French
marshals and were finally overcome
only by force of numbers. Hofer, who
was captured, was shot by Napoleon's
order after a perfunctory trial. His
name is still great in Tyrolese song
and story and history justifies its
greatness The events of 1909 are be-
ing commemorated at innsbruck this
week in the presence of Franz Joseph.

Uw1 HERE is much to be said for
the contention of the daugh-
ter of the worlds most famous
millionaire, that every worthy
mother is queen among
women-every thing, except
this: That she isn't.
For to be a queen, a woman must
rule, by whatever means she can COM
mand, over whole people, not over
a family or a few individuals merely;
and over her people her sway must en-
dure undisputed.
Such prominence and such rule,
while it does eliminate the simple ma
triarch, remains far from debarring
from admission many woman who
can never wear a crown. And it does
shut out not a few who wear crowns
to-day.
For there are queens. who are OBJ
vious nonentities on their august
thrones, even as there are untitled
women whose sway is as potent, and
as broad, as that ever welded by the
most tyrannous of kings over the most
subservient of peoples.
In the first group appear a number
of the reigning majesties of the pres
ent, foremost among them the queen
of the most stable kingdom and the
empress of the most extensive empire

history has OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES of
Great Britain.
In Praise of Alexandra.
She is famed for every attribute of
beautiful and admirable motherhood;
she comes of the most widely en-
throned royal race; she is all that is
lovely and excellent and gracious.
Yet her power, her real power, as a
ruler remains practically nil. Her hus-
band, after a career which British
loyalty, reminiscent of his princeship
of Wales, finds it impossible to forget,
and under constitutional era that
ties such monarchs to the innocuous-
ness of automata, has proved himself
a king in the full reality of the cum
ming and ability in which Carlyle dis
covered the origin and significance of
the title.
1t is a strange anomaly; a son, sue
ceeding mother whose dominant
spirit kept his gray beard almost a
uockery of his destiny to power, and

Work to Suppress White plague.

During the year ending September
81, 1909, 81 out of 40 legislatures in
session considered measures relating
to tuberculosis. The enormous sum
of nearly $4,000, 900 was appropriated
for the suppression of the white
plague Fifty-six laws pertaining to
the prevention of consumption were
passed Eight new state sanatoria
were provided for; six states passed
laws permitting the erection of coun-
ty tuberculosis hospitals, and eight
states adopted laws requiring the
careful reporting and registration of
tuberculosis. In addition to these
provisions made by the various states.
the federal government granted near
ly $1,000, 900 for the maintenance of its
tuberculosis hospitals in Fort Bayard
and Fort Stanton, N NJ, and Las Ami
mas, Cal.

hears the f1attering title queen
Far worse the case of the czarina of
Russia, whose whole existence is one
series of terrors for the safety of her
husband and her children; and no
more queen1y, although much happier,

many, re1egated practically to the Of
flee of hauSfrau, basis on which
every other German wife and mother
is fully her equal.
These are the three most mighty
thrones in the world to-day, and these
the women who are, in reality, least
among queens. For the real queens,
enthroned in the possession of real
power, the quest must turn to the les
ser kingdoms, where the head that
wears the crown need but nod to
compel obedience.
Such a real queen is Wilhelmina of
Holland, the only woman living to-day
whose maternity earns her the royal
rank Mrs Mccormick has SO futilely
claimed for all her lovely sex. Upon
the ability for motherhood in Will

So, too, does little Portugal own 4

Portugal, for all it's ferocious social

genuine queen; amid its sullen growls
it whimpers under her remnants of
power. And Italy, after a period of
distrust. accepted Queen Helena amid
the chaos she so devotedly faced n
the ruins of Messina.
But there ends the brief listing of
the real queens whose crowns are
more than gewgaws; for the greatest,
most genuine of them all, the modern

practical efficiensy, pertaining to
Queen Alexandra and Mrs. Humphry
Ward could be submitted for trial,
nothing but the notorious lip loyalty
of the Englishman could give the YER
dict in favor of the reigning queen.
With Victoria of course, the dispute
would have been too unequal, for she
was an imperious young lady and old
lady; and all the literary lights of her
era-except, perhaps, Thackeray-fail
to show so pronounced an impression
as she made on the manners and NOR
ais of her times, while India became
her empire because Disraeli, as her
prime minister, comprehended how
much she longed for the title, albeit
Great Britain already enjoyed the sub
stance. Yet that very title, manufac-
tured from thin air to add another
crown, has in the end served to rivet
the chains of ownership upon half a
continent in Asia.
But, as things go soberly at present
the odds of power all lie with the
woman novelist, whose influence all
England admits freely.
AS things go, too, in France, the
drama gives to the world another
queen, whose dominance no one dares
deny. Sara Bernhard can still lay
her slender hands upon the inmost
souls of men and hale them forth
until their owners are her humble
slaves-and this by no wiles of beau
ty and no ravishment of form.
Her Position Won.
She won her distinguished position
through such mazes of rivalries and
cabals as few queens, excepting those
of the seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries, have encountered-deeply
laid schemes of astute schemers,
whose hatreds did not finch at the
most detestable attacks. She has en-
dured, and is now more priced by her
republican compatriots than are the
queens of Europe by their nominally
loyal subjects.
Italy has it's stage queen as well as
France, a woman whose whole life
has been romance, her rise to great
ness having been marked by as i'm
pressive a discrepancy as that which
attended the beggar maid whom King
Cophetua loved.
Until the titular queen of Italy bold
ly conquered the affections of her
subjects by Drawing death and sustain
ing injury after the terrible Sicilian
earthquake, there was small doubt as
to the woman to whom the bulk of
Italy's allegiance was passionately
given, and that in spite of the equally
passionate manner in which the fam
GUS actress, Duse, had for some years
been repelling her compatriots' devo-
ton for the sake of her affection for
the migrate d'Annunzio.
1t is rarely, very rarely, that the
stage queen enjoys, like Bernhardt,
life tenure of office. Usually her sub
jects fall away with the decadence of
her beauty But sometimes, among
the charming dolls of the theater,
there appears the woman of genius,
like Bernardo and Duse, the inspira-
