THE LATE KING EDWARD VII.

The prince received a most elabO-
rate, broad and carefully planned edu-
cation. At first he was under the
charge Of four private tutors, and sub

Kingsley. In order to give him a
taste of college life, he was sent for
by Baron Stockmar and Charles
one session to the University of Ed
inburgh, for one yea to Oxford and
for Jour terms to Cambridge. During
these a he acquired a wide gen
eral knowledge Of the arts and sci
ences and became quite proficient in
modern languages
In 1860 the prince made a tour of
the United States and Canada and
the next year he Joined the British
army at Curragh camp, Ireland. In
1852 he set out on his travels again,
this time visiting Jerusalem and other
places Of biblical interest. His com
panion on the trip was Dean Stanley
of Westminster.
Edwards public life began In Feb
ruary, 1868, when. as heir to the
throne, he took his seat in the house
of lords. On March 10 Of the same
year he married Princess Alexandra
Caroline Mary Charlotte Louise Julia,
the eldest daughter of King Christian
TX. of Denmark. Her beauty, grace
and charming manners at once gave
her q popularity in Great Britain that

her life as princess and queen. In

as his full royal title reads, was born
in Buckingham palace, London. on
November 9, 1841. and was the second
child and first son Of Queen Victoria
and the Prince Consort Albert. He
was christened Albert Edward, and at
his very birth was given an imposing
list Of titles. He was at nee created
prince of Wales and by virtue of hat
dignity he became also knight of the
garter. AS heir apparent to the Brit
ish throne he succeeded to the title
Of duke of Cornwall and it's emolu-
ments, and as heir to the crown Of
Scotland he became great steward
of Scotland. duke of Rothesay, earl of
Carrick. baron of Renfrew and lord
Of h isles. On September 10. 1849,
he was created earl Of Dublin. this
title being conferred on him and his
heirs in p~erpetuity. Among the other

Tenth hussars, colonel-in-chief Of the

British army and field marshal OF the
German army.

the kings III health. which had been
current for several days. were con-
1rmed by the postponement OF the
ceremony. 1t was announced that the
king was suffering from perityphlitis.
and on June "a he underwent an op-
Grafton. After some eek OF the
greatest anxiety he recovered. and
the coronation took place August 8.
During the long years Of his prince
hood Edwards public duties consisted
solely In the Office Of representing the
royal family at all manner OF public
events. and he performed these du-
ties well. But the deadly monotony
of such a life was too much for he
vigorous a and ne found relaxa-
ton in amusements that frequently
gave rise to scandals and that gave
the world a wrong impression Of his
real character. He was especially
fond of the theater and among his
boon companions for years were ac-
tresses n actors. Also he deveI-
oped a great liking for Paris and often
visited that gay capital ~incognito.
But all this, as has been said, was
only his relaxation, and after coming
to the throne his conduct always was
SO circumspect that not the most cap
tious critic could find any fault with 1t.
Edward was always a liberal patron
Of art n science and manifested a
lively interest in exhibitions, chart
table institutions, the housing Of the
poor, agriculture and other matters
that concerned the welfare Of his sub
jects. He assisted in promoting the
Royal College Of Music, and the I'M
perial institute was due to his sug-
gestion. While prince of Wales he
carefully abstained from participation
in politics and from all action that
could be construed into preference OF
n party over another. He cultt-
waited the most friendly relations with
public men, whatever their opinions
might be, and he was equally cour-
teous to all. At peculiar crises of pub
lie, opinion his visits to MI. Gladstone.

counterbalance in the public mind

hat Edward always inclined to the
Nationalists in Irish politics, but con-
stitutional restrictions prevented his
showing his preferences in relation to
the Emerald Isle.
AS a diplomat Edward was ~unexcel-
led among the monarchs Of Europe.
His influence was always thrown to
the side Of international peace where
compatible with national honor. and
his advice and example had a steady
ing effect on all Europe. He looked
with amused tolerance on the va
carries and extravagances Of his neph-
ew, the emperor Of Germany, but &C.
c~asionally that ruler eKasperated him
to such an extent that he could not
refrain from giving hin some stern
advice. Such admonition was not re-
ceived by William in a submissive
spirit, and once in a while there were
sensational rumors that the peaceful
relations between the two countries
were about to be ruptured.
The development of the kings char
acter in his later years was especially
gratifying to the nation. In addition
to the love of his people, which he
a always had, he gained their ad-
miration and respect. They had the
utmost confidence in his good judg-
ment, as was amply exemplided dur
ing the late crisis over the budget,
II they were always sure he would
do the right thing at the right time.
To Edward and Alexandra were
born six children. The first, Prince
Albert. dCke of Clarence died in 1900
aged t~wenty-eight years. The second,
George Frederick Ernest Albert, born
on June g., 1865. succeeds to the
throne. The other children are:
Princess Louisa Victoria, married to
the duke of Fife; Princess Victoria
Alexandria; Princess Maude Charlotte.
married to Prince Charles of Den
mark, and Prince Alexander John.
who died the day after his birth in
1871.
